I *do* like older lads stories, and I enjoyed their future here. I like the way you structured this, showing us the silver and the gold Jubilees around their present and past. Their edgy first meeting, the slow build up of trust and the turning point of the missing girl were great. And of course, that lovely canon flashback to the dialogue from DIAG.

Well done, Kat! And I'm flattered that you included reference to 'Amid'. Makes me feel all grown up and proper as a writer.*g*
