Oh no Deidre didn't!!!! I want to see Patsy's reaction when she learns what third party mandate means.

On another note, Patsy could adopt Nadzia and still have someone to talk to. :-)

Brilliant chapter! Virtual six. :-)

    I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Sue. There are always low lights looking to scam people like Patsy out of their money, Deirdre being just one example. Lol, yes, I'm sure Patsy and Nazdia would get on well! Alexis xxx

You continue to develop a great store. The introduction of characters is easy to follow and get to know them. Patsy and her laptop seems to be a good fit and
gives her more freedom.
A good story. Thank you.

Hi Alexis, I have to admit that I actually read the next chapter before this , so I have come back a few chapters to get the gist of your seemingly wonderful story, I will now go to the next chapter my friend.

    I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it. It's good fun having different characters all woven around one place, because it means I can bring them all together from time to time!

The additional short chapter was sort of like icing a cake, gave me a few additional ideas on what to look forward to tomorrow, that is if I can ever get caught up from my neglectful period this past weekend. Great job. :-)

    I had to find a way of keeping Patsy in the frame after her holiday, so the next chapter does exactly that. I'm so glad you enjoyed this sneak preview! Alexis x

G'day Alexis. I think you should have got Patsy working on the chat lines LOL. This is another very well written chapter mate. I never find any spag in your work any more, it's always fantastic. I like the way you have a few stories going on at the same time, very well done my friend. Cheers Fez

    Thank you, Fez. The thing I'm enjoying with this book is the fact I don't have a bloody clue where it's going. I just sit down to write and off we go! Alexis xxx

Wonderful chapter! I enjoyed getting to know Patsy better. She's a great addition to the story line.

I like the page turner you left me with at the end. Looking forward to reading what's coming! :-D

    I'm glad I introduced Patsy into the 'mix.' I'm still not sure what I'm going to do with her, but she has tons of potential! The next chapter, as you now know, answers a few more questions. Alexis xxx

Sounds as if Deidre was planning a scam to get ignorant Patsy's money. How lucky for her to have learned about laptops and now has friends to help her. Your two new characters are fleshed out and have endeared themselves to this reader.

    I think I could write a whole book on Patsy alone! She will be playing quite a big part, but I mustn't let her take over! Alexis x

Another great chapter Alexis! I'm really starting to like this new character. Poor Patsy, sounds like someone is trying to take advantage of her. Hopefully she will do her research before she signs anything.
Maybe the girls will help Patsy meet some new people. She sounds like she needs to explore life and have fun. :) This was short but definitely another great chapter. :) I need to get my butt in gear & write. I've had such a peaceful vacation & came back to a pile of work waiting for me on my desk. The real world always stays busy.
Looking forward to more!
Shana :)

    She is interesting, isn't she. What I worry about is that her story takes over the whole book! I think we'll have to leave her dangling for a couple of chapters and get back to the girls! I'm so glad you had a good time, and yes, it's horrid to have to go back to work, but at least you must have a week full of lovely memories to keep you going. Alexis xxx

Another great chapter. I would imagine Laura is based on you, isn't she? -- a very generous spirit.

'the holiday had b*r*ought her a window into a world'

    Thank you Adrian. Yes, I did mean 'bought' because Patsy had paid for the holiday at the hotel, and learning about the internet was the icing on the cake! Yes, Laura is based on me because I am a widow, and I have run a hotel. Boy, does that give you a plethora of stories to incorporate! Alexis x

Well done with this one Alexis, yes it is a bit sus that Deidre's long term partner is appearing on the form that Deidre wants Patdy to sign, what is she up to! She's learning how to be au fait with the computer from Laura, poor old Patsy, it seems like a very apt name, good scribing My friend, blessings, Roy.

    I have to admit, I forgot about 'the Patsy' aspect when I named her, so maybe my muse is ahead of the game! Yes, Patsy is not the woman she was since she discovered the internet! Alexis x
