What a treat to wake up to this new instalment, Dan! Go Josh for nudging you towards writing this.

Great opening and momentum and excellent to hear you have a plan. I'm very intrigued about all of this and what La Torre has already been up to and what will happen next. I particularly love the opening lines setting the scene of the location and season.

Chapping -- that's not a word I knew. Had to Google it. But now I know :)

Thanks very much, Nathan 🙏

This was one that fell together quite easily. My son goes to school in Ayr and I always drive past these giant houses and think who owns them and what shady stuff do they get up to?😁

The story will hopefully take a few interesting turns and through that we’ll learn a bit more about La Torre and his past

That’s so funny about “chapping” 😆

Like I said, I just write in my own voice and terminology and don’t think to check if it would make sense elsewhere. We used to play a game called chap door, run when we were kids which always got us in a whole lot of trouble 😳😁
