Not perhaps my best story, but one that was very satisfying to write as like most I had the loathsome 'toad woman'.

Hi all, it's John again.
Sorry for the embarrassingly bad 'typos' in the above, it was late and I was tired and since they were actual words the spell check didn't pick 'em up. I swear my always dodgy typing is getting worse by the day and the post should of course read.....

Silly as this scene was...

And the paragraph also should have ended...

I hated the loathsome toad woman.

The latter error in the original (in which hated read as had) was a particular no no as it seemed to imply I might have 'known' the not so delightful Dolores in a 'biblical sense', not of course possible with a fictional character, but even if it were it's a vile idea and certainly would never be the case I'm glad to say. ;o)

Many Blessings.
John, (Oriondruid).
