The first time I go shoplifting with Tom Wheatly I feel a burning sensation in my ears and the back of my neck, and my palms tingle as if baby mice are nuzzling into the center of them.
This might be your best writing yet. Loved this one, perhaps for selfish reasons as it resonated all the more because I am only slightly younger than the titular characters, and the account feels so accurate and of its time.
If this is based on your life, you’re a bit younger than my two brothers..l was 5 in 1970, I remember the music, the aluminum trash cans with lids, bell bottom jeans, but oddly enough, I can only remember one of the two “living at home”.

Thanks for this, Nadine. I'll let you know when I get the next chapter in the shape I want it to be in. And thank you for becoming a paid subscriber!
Fantastic 😂

I appreciated it, Stirling.
Thanks kindly, Franco!
