(Apologies to all that this is a little late…)
1. Absolutely Miles Away and On A Whim
Two people have asked me in the most recent days, in the most outright way, why I am so strange. So weird…
2. Dreary Me and The Art Of Noise
The only noise I made with any regularity was the splatter of beer-diluted half-digested chips on my desert boots…
3. Edvard Moonke at Trowell Services
Standing facing the urinals, there was a deathly silence broken by a sudden shuffling sound…
4. Enidd and Enidd’s Feelings Couldn’t Be More Mixed If They’d Been Tipped Into A Magimix And Blended On High
The sun is lower now and the shadows are darker. enidd sighs too for her lost opportunities…
5. Fussy Bitch and Perceptions Of A Paedophile
Reading his perception now I see my invisibility was a condition I got from from birth…
6. Law Dog Files and Tactical Advice
If you’re a young, horny teenage male who wants to get it off in the worst possible way, do not get a school ‘friend’ to introduce you to a pretty girl…
7. Mommy Has A Headache and Ten Reasons Why I Couldn’t Be A Man
How the heck do they keep going? Day in, day out, rotating a finger on an area the size of a pencil eraser, for five, ten minutes…
8. The Other Side Of Paris and Pause For Poetry (4)
Betjeman proposed a game. Every time we saw someone walking by the road we should all shout “Hello Mrs. Fisher!” (or Mr. As the case might be)
9. QC Report and a two parter: Summer and Smoke and The Unforgettable Fire
Another two trucks screamed towards the park. I drove home, glancing sideways and then backwards at the smoke. It didn’t appear to be diminishing…
10. Random Burblings and Conspiracy Theory
There is tension in the air you could cut with a knife. Everyone present senses that what is about to be said could shatter their dreams forever…
11. Real E Fun and Kit E Cat
As her fingertips reached the base of her belly she arched her back in anticipation. What was that?
12. Waiterrant and The Only Way Is The Wrong Way
There’s a long pause. Finally the younger man says. “My wife’s upset that we don’t have children. The doctors say we probably can’t.”

this was both an utter joy to compile and bloody hard with so many fantastic nominations… but the limit’s 12… frankly they all should have been shortlisted, I hope you managed to read all of them as nominations anyway…
I loved the Waiterrant story as linked here. But when I went on to his/her main page, the one with the ads and whistles, I got a Trojan called JS/Downloader-AUD.
Could be coincidence, of course. But it was that immediate. (Fortunately picked up by McAfee. This is not an ad.)
the virus has been cleared off Waiter Rant’s site now, so they say.
