<p>Hi Tom</p>
<p>The brief was something which will illustrate - some of the poems do that job nicely and break it up</p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>A nice selection of stories John, but what gives with the poetry? I'll get back to read the remainder.</p>

<p>I can remember when you first put this idea together Mike. Good work on the characterisation and imagery. I like return journey through the storm, and it's a good ending, but I'm sure it's different in some way. If I remember correctly they both disappeared the first time ... or was that just wishful thinking? Great storytelling all the same.</p>

<p>Neat intro Fred, combined with great imagery and storytelling. I enjoyed the chase scene. At first mention of the cat on the vessel, I wondered if there would be a miracle cure, or a disaster connected to it. Superb ending.</p>

<p>So this is where that religious phrase comes from then Roger, ... 'and it came to Pass ... '</p>
<p>I enjoyed this, and you left plenty of avenues, or should it be paths, open for the reader's imagination. Nice work.</p>

<p>Andy, I think this reads better as a verse than it would as a short story. I don't know if it was intentional, but when I imagined the rain on the big day, I thought he was going to miss the medal ceremony to follow the rainbow. Perhaps one day it will be reborn as a story, but with a different 'finish'.</p>

<p>A great story Ross, with a title sure to lure a reader; just as the plant lured it's next victim. A tale spun with your usual style, and ended well.</p>
