A stolen DAB radio (Rousse)

Posted on May 5, 2016 by Dreamaticus

I wandered off without so much as a brief goodbye to TPR. When I reached the pond I hid the DAB radio so that I could swim across the water rather than take the longer route along the path. It … Continue reading →

Bare-chested business (Rousse)

Posted on January 20, 2016 by Dreamaticus

I’d dressed in such a rush that I had accidentally ended up in a shirt that did not match the rest of my outfit. I’d also forgotten to put on my bra. I could not possibly make an appearance in … Continue reading →
