I've a comment for Bonzi
But can't post it here. ;)
I'm really beginning to dislike Des, you know. I suspect there is less act to him then Simon believes. It might turn out that Cathy should have let him go just then, he is liable to take her action as encouragement. Little Des seems to do most of the thinking for big Des.

How is it that there seems to be only one
mature, thinking, person at the table. Simon and Des have reverted to pre-teenage boys. Hope Cathy can keep them under control. And I agree with the first commenter...Des is a littlt too agressive for my comfort and Cathy seems to allow it. She's playing with fire and probalby doesn't realize it.

Now for the compulsory comment: Oh, it was such a great chapter. Please keep it up.

Innocent banter?
I tend to wonder about Des's intentions as well - although Cathy, Simon & Des have a chemistry together, it's not positive from what I can tell, unlike their usual interactions with Stella. Can't help that he's going to try to prove something to Simon, that he wouldn't have any qualms about using Cathy to do so. Hopefully I'm wrong!

I Say That Dirty Des Is Bad News
For some reason he seems determined to score with Cathy even though she is betrothed to Simon. I can see him trying something only to have Cathy do something that he will not like and THAT will be the end of the friendship between Des and Simon.

Not impressed
I've never been impressed by Des - he's far too aggressive and pushy. I wonder if he's really any good at his job with an attitude like that.
I don't think Simon deserves Cathy either. He can be so insensitive, and as for calling her 'babes' and 'presh' yuck!
Given her lack of experience, it must be confusing for Cathy to have to deal with these two males competing for her attention.
Compulsory comments be dammed
However as the story is wonderful and the author is one of my favorites I can only say I really want to strangle her cat.

If You Strangle Bonzi
She'd never get a chapter done every day. He does about half the typing! :)

Careful!
Bonzi was neutered, not declawed. Besides, who do you think has been writing this all along? Angharad is just the transcriber. ;-)

Cally and Charlie are upset
Cally -- our calico girl and Charlie her brother, an orange tiger cat, love this serial. They would - at fourteen years of age, prefer dormice sent directly to their home at zipcode 53213.
I and my hungry cats love this story.

That's a first!
Any number of teachers would be very surprised to hear that said about me. Likely a few people here would be also.
Warning: Don't send Bonzi. I have nails and know where to scratch behind the ears; he might never go back home. Bonzi, I've got a can of tuna here with your name on it.

so shall it be done :)
Wonderful spot of writing there! Please keep it going; what's the record for serial stories anyways Bonzi, since I assume you are the real brains behind this story, what eh?

Both of my cats would like to thank Bonzi ...
... for the wonderful story. and I would like to thank Angharad for her wonderful job of transcription ( if such the case may be. ).
However Bleu, the elder of the two who rule this house, has expressed some doubts, primarily because he cannot believe any of his brethren would know enough about mice of any type to be able to write the story so extremely well.
Holly
One of the most difficult things to give away is kindness.
It usually comes back to you.
Holly
Oh dear
A cat writing a story about mice, maybe he has ulterior motives. Just hope Cathy realizes and makes Spike and co more secure. Still loving the story.

Another great chapter
I'm sure that without Bonzi, Angharad would have no way of knowing if her spell checker was working.Thanks for the extra effort of writing on Easter.Amy
As stated in the new policy...
>>Change of policy: comments are now compulsory!<<
I'm providing my required comments. "Comment" "Comment"
Now that the required bit is out of the way, I'll say Des is still a cad. And his behavior is inexcuseable (if I could spell the danged word). I guess he's still a College boy. Some never grow out of it. Though it did appear that he was able to "put it aside" for a litle while there toward the end of the episode.
And, thinking about a cat writing a story about mice... Perhaps Bonzi's a Trans? A mouse trapped in the body of a cat? Nah, It couldn't be.
Thanks for the fun.
Annette
... it was Bonzi's idea.
Blame it on a poor defenceless animal who probably never said anything about it being more concerned with catching mice (or dormice?) or playing with some toy or other. Still, that's another reason I'm a dog-lover.
And what's with "compulsory" -- haven't I been good, assiduous, and punctual? OK, maybe I missed once but aren't you over-reacting? What do you mean; it isn't just about me?

I do love Cathy now, she has
I do love Cathy now, she has finally become more aggressive (wrong word, more forceful perhaps). I would still be care about Des tho, he still seems to be interested in her and not from a film making aspect.

I think the word you want
Is self-assertive. Before she was blown about by whatever the circumstances were, now she is standing up for herself.

A POX ON YOU BONZI
How can I make comments when I still have 300 parts to go? I must read on...... 'Sika p.s. Qu'est que c'est le mot "cor?" well if you can use Welsh, I thought I should try sounding continental. your silly a merry can reader
Bemused by Bonzi
If comments are compulsory, not very many are reading this serial. I think Bonzi was ignored by the masses. Poor kitty, snubbed by the readership!

Bonzi's idea eh?
That naughty kitty, if I respond to every single part I'll never catch up! =P
Anyways, silly boys! They can be so childish sometimes... XD Well, most can anyway! I suppose getting Des and Simon together was a bad idea, they seem to revert to being schoolboys in each others presence!
Mmm... Egg and chips, good choice Cathy! You have to have runny enough egg yolk to dip the chips in though! =D
Loving the story as ever Angharad! ^^

Soft boiled
I haven't had that in ages. When I was a kid I was introduced to them, with strips of toast. I loved them.
Simon too insensitive.
Cathy has to lay down a few rules or this marriage to come will not last. Stella on the other hand may turn out to be Cathys best friend in future regardless of Simons boorish behaviour. Perhaps aristocrats (male variety) are all like that. Pity they can't have hormonal flushes and periods etc. Being top of the tree, anthromorphicly speaking, makes them act like monkeys.

Des
Methinks that Des is up to no good and it will end up causing Cathy a lot of heart ache. I don't think he's a very nice man. I should think things will end up being a sticky wicket.
Goodness me, now what was
Goodness me, now what was that ! Silence be, it was the cat.
Everyone blames the cat.
A Pinarello !!, that's about 12 grand USD. Pretty good bribe.
What a visual. Cathy's having sex, her ejectile is fully cocked, and then WHAM! it fires. and across the room goes poor Simon !
Cefin
Some men can be real idiots around women
Every single time Des is near Cathy, he comes on to her, to the point where it seems he's trying to steal her from Simon. He really, really needs to be hit with a clue by four regarding the fact that Cathy is engaged to Simon and is NOT available. I know that Cathy has told him that several times, yet he keeps pushing things. I don't think it's a good idea for him to be involved with the film, he'll be all over Cathy in that case.
But I have to say that Simon isn't the brightest one around, either, half the time he seems clueless, and a lot of the time he acts like Cathy is the housekeeper, not his fiancee. His family has enough cash they could hire people to keep the house clean, etc. yet they don't, why?
Compulsory comment
This is my compulsory comment. Good story, keep writing. (Of course, the story is at part 3329 at the moment.)
