SquidgeParticipantWell done, Sea! And thanks for setting us off on a monthly comp journey again here in the Den, Daeds.

SeagreenParticipantAh, Daeds, you’re too generous. I didn’t expect that, and have, in fact, been checking the Den frequently today to find out what the theme for this month’s comp would be 🙂
I’m delighted, of course, given the calibre of the entries, but hope no-one expects that same level of insight when it comes to October’s judging.
Off to think of something to set…

John S AltyParticipantWell done Seagreen, fully deserved.
Thanks, Daeds. Yes, I was in SA for the election. What do you mean by “on the nose”?October 2, 2018 at 7:49 am #2002
DaedalusParticipantThanks John. Mostly I meant that you make us feel what it was like so well, the few places where you just tell us something directly stood out – e.g. ‘but the loss of his attendance bonus would have been intolerable’ – I would have preferred a sense of what intolerable meant to them. But it’s a seriously picky point for such a short word count and it’s a lovely bit of writing however you look at it

John S AltyParticipantThanks, Daeds, a valid point and I appreciate the input.
