You had me. *g* At first I thought "Oh, where is the story?" and then I found it after the click on the link. Clever lady!

And now I want to know where Bodie was? Where was he hidden? Will there be a sequel? Question over question. Very well done!

[murphybabe]

Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to cause any confusion *bad Murphybabe*

Ah, well. I have another day coming up, so you never know, your questions may be answered. Some of them, anyway! And thank you for your kind comments :)

[macklingirl.livejournal.com]

No, you didn't cause the confusion. It was only me not thinking straight and not looking through. *g*

And I'm looking forward to your next day. :-)

[murphybabe]

I was posting in a hurry: next time I'll make sure to write All The Words :)

I hope I can manage to entertain you on my next day!

held out the promise of a glass of sherry and a mince pie at the end of the ordeal

I see you're well-acquainted with the fine tradition that is the Prep School Nativity. *vbg*

[murphybabe]

Hmmm. Sadly, this is wishful thinking, and what I would do if I had the organising of a Nativity. None of the ones I ever went to were that civilised, unfortunately.

This was the perfect Christmas present for Ray. Thank you! :-)

[murphybabe]

You are welcome! I'm glad you thought it was perfect for him. Thank you :)

[tango65.livejournal.com]

Wonderful and yes please, I want more!

[murphybabe]

Thank you! I'll see what I can do *g*

Oh, that was fun. Angst, but just the right amount for Christmas, and then the joy of reading a scene written by someone who clearly knows what they are writing about. *g* In-character and lovely. Thank you!

[murphybabe]

Glad you thought it was fun! With two daughters I should be able to reckon up the number of Nativity plays I've suffered sat through but there appear to be alarming blanks in my memory *g* Thank you for the kind comments :)

Love this bit:

‘An angel of the Lord appeared and said--‘
‘Oi! Doyle!’

Nothing better than a bit of Pros'y angst for Christmas. Well done!

[murphybabe]

Thank you! If I hadn't been in such a rush I could probably have had more fun with the narrator *g*

ohh, ohh, I'm waiting for the next story. . . . . . .hurry

[murphybabe]

Ha ha - well, it might be connected... or it might not!

[cyanne]

Glad Doyle got exactly what he wanted for Christmas. And I can tell you've been to those plays too. :)

[murphybabe]

I couldn't leave Doyle alone at Christmas :)

And yes, Nativity plays! Wonderful things, but you have to view them from a special perspective *g*

[unbelievable2.livejournal.com]

Very nice! :))

[murphybabe]

Thank you!

I will confess to something of a loathing for nativity plays (though I wouldn't be surprised in retrospect to find out that the teachers were suffering almost as much stress as they inflicted on all and sundry :-s) so I have every sympathy for Doyle in this situation *g* - what a relief for him and us to finally get confirmation that Bodie has been found!

And I absolutely want to know where he was and why and when's he going to sound like himself again, poor lad! *vbg*

Loved it, and can't wait for (hopefully!) more!

[murphybabe]

Well, as I said, I have sat through many in my time! Thank you for your kind words!

I couldn't leave poor Doyle suffering, could I? Or Bodie?

...Or could I? My next day is 31st December... *vbg*

[cornishcat.livejournal.com]

Oh, the poor lambs lads. What have you done unto them?

Great little story - can't wait for the next instalment.

[murphybabe]

Me? Would I make them suffer? I've rescued them, haven't I? *g*

Thank you for your kind words :)
