New Greenlea Tale: The Grey Girls
belbbmfan:
:) I liked this 'chapter du jour'.
It seems the girls (I remember Colson referring to them as a 'gaggle of girls' in The Long Way Home :laugh:) are driving everyone 'up in the curtains' as we say over here. ;D
Next in line: their neighbours to be Jeremy and Nicky. Are they ready for lots of female silliness? Hmmm, I doubt it.
I liked it when Ellery said 'I need a little time with my man.' Good plan Ellery!
And it's good that Joe is in such a good mood, eating his muffins! I can resist just about anything except temptation. :laugh: Ain't that the truth.
Thanks Louise. :)

"Up in the curtains." LOL! Oh, I like that expression, Fabienne - and it sure fits. Colson (a/k/a "Walking Guilt Trip") won't tell his girls that he can't spend all day playiing with them - he has an actual JOB to do - and the girls are so excited about being free from Prescott and Laura and thrilled to be getting Daddy's attention and in need of some distraction that they are oblivious. Something has to give. God bless Edna and Wes - they can't skip the second helping of pie and go home! LOL!

I doubt it, too. And I'm very interested to see J&N's reaction to the twins once they get to know them a little better - and the twins' reaction to J&N. If I remember, Jeremy met them at E&C's house once and Nick saw them briefly when they came into the bar at Christmas.
And Joe quoting Oscar Wilde - I love that guy! :laugh:
Don't think we've seen Ellery work on a child abuse case before. Really tough stuff. >:(
Thanks, Louise!

and now, chapter 28: http://louisev.livejournal.com/264317.html
which might rightly be titled 'Friday Night at the Fights'

SPOILERS
No one can move a story along with dialogue like you, Louise! This chapter is an instant classic.
“Tell ya what. If ya die just gimme a call an I’ll be sure ta come by.”
LOL! And I love Ellery adopting the Wes lingo -...."it's yer fearless leader."
“None a yer pains in the ass, sweetheart, just one a mine. Too funny - that's exactly what I was thinking while he was talking to Wayne!
Fright Night, for sure, Fran! Could you hear me screaming "No, don't answer the phone!" A call from Laura - what a perfect way to top off Colson's day. ::)
Thanks, Louise
