I gave him what I hoped was that hopeful innocent puppy look that said “don’t you just want ta rub my tummy” rather than that hungry, ravenous wolf look that said “why don’t you just come out a that brick house so I can eat you up little pig?” LVH: 'What I did on my Day Off'

SPOILERS





Oh sweet Jeremy, I love him.  I could just imagine how nervous he was, and yet wanting to give Nick some encouraging signs that he was really interested as well.  The More game was really effective too!!!  lol  You go Jeremy, just keep saying more and you'll be ok!

That was just such a delicous chapter, full of nervous apprehension (and that was just me!), and sexual anticipation.  How cool is Nick, not rushing, not pushing, just letting it all go as slow as Jeremy needs it to go. 

Those two revelations were interseting though - firstly that Jeremy carried a crush for Ellery (but who wouldnt?) and that Nick's dad was Ennis and Ellery's doctor.  Totally passed me by the fact his name was Sampson and he was talking about his dad's practice - duh!   ???

Please DO NOT leave us hanging too long, Louise, dont think I could last untiil after I come back from my weekend away to see how the rest of the night goes.

Louise, you have to give us more. What you've done here is the literary equivalent of coitus interruptus, and you must know that that is extremely hazardous to the health

I've just found an excellent excuse to use an extremely obscure word in an entirely appropriate setting:

Are we all here aware that we will soon be able to have a quingentenary celebration? We are at 495 pages now and, at the current rate of progress, should soon reach 500. What should be done to mark the occasion?

Edna's chocolate cake? A bottle of Glenfiddle? A batch of Doughboys?

Any other suggestions?
