Yes I also think it is a great yarn and well written - found a typo you might want to fix- he made the combs sing through and with your punctuation " and " indicating speech they only need to be at beginning and the ending of the talking part, not each sentence, and the punctuation overall needs a bit of spit and polish, ( I know picky, picky) but this is really good and I would hate you to maybe loose out on a comp or some such just because you had these wrongly placed.

Read it again and it is good.

Cheers

It's great Marty. Really great! You are improving no end lately. I reckon spit and polish and into a comp too.

I KNEW it was snowing somewhere today! So, so cold here too. I think Melbourne was expecting a top of 11 degrees. Reckon it was about to snow in Kilmore this afternoon - sky as black as slate and air so cold it hurt to breathe.
