I would like to thank the more than one hundred people who sent condolences. Home now and will start writing again tomorrow. Mum was 98 so can't say it was unexpected. She lived a good life. She is the model for Rick's Mum. While of course all is widely exaggerated she had a horrific World War II. Dad who was in the Battle of the Bulge always swore her war was worse than his. I even helped a little by managing to be born in the middle of an air raid. Mum couldn't get to the bomb shelter so I was born in the bed upstairs. The Germans blew up the house next across the street and blew in our doors and windows. For some reason she never forgave me for that. I was her little Barstead.
Since retiring was trying to do a chapter a week. This week my real life Mum died.
Guess who never owned or ridden in a corvette. So the books would barely fit in the boot.
As to the better and clearer wording submitted. It is better but may I remind everyone you have a choice:price,quality or speed. You can have any two. Price is already set.
I made a real boo boo in chapter 10, I had Rick take a ride on Bob. Except Bob was the cowboy who delivered the horses. George was the horse. Will be fixed when I repost on Saturday, after including all the fixes from various emails.
For those who may not know, Simeon II Exiled King of Bulgaria went to Valley Forge Military Academy as Cadet Rylski.
