Page 32 - As his constituency barely exceeded three digits...
Page 33 - "That one will have to wait, Pete," Ignatius said of the fresh pint.
Page 34 - Ignatius stood in the middle of the auditorium...
Page 35 - Gina nudged Pete...
Page 36 - "I'll tell him, Sandra," Gina volunteered.
Page 37 - "As its other meaning is 'husband'...
Page 38 - "I think this is painful enough," Ignatius suggested.
Page 39 - "And what was that?" asked Ignatius.
Page 40 - "Thank you, Gina," Ignatius said.
Page 41 - "Honestly, Gina, I feel rather stung" Ignatius defended.
Page 42 - The parents stood silent for a minute.
Page 43 - Ignatius walked back to Nora...
Page 44 - He knew, deep within his cunning mind...
Page 45 - Within the confines of Otterstow, Nora's cellar was legendary.
Page 46 - Thaddeus dragged himself into the pub...
Page 47 - Those who knew Linda...
Page 48 - "You?" asked an astonished Clare. "Like children? ...
Page 49 - Clare and Rachael MarchHare were identical twins...

Page 52 - Gina had been in the habit...
Page 53 - Within a span of a few minutes...
Page 54 - Grace had come about through more prosaic means...
Page 55 - "Still, 'e puts in," Rachael defended.

Page 58 - "Oh, come now, Geoff," Linda called across the bar...
Page 59 - Pete continued...
Page 60 - "An what aboot you?" Tad countered.
Page 61 - Clare, however, had a ready explanation...
Page 62 - "Then what sorta readin d'ya think might better us?" asked Thaddeus.
Page 63 - "Oh, behave, Thaddeus," Ignatius dismissed the charge...
Page 64 - "We tried living in ignorance...
Page 65 - Ignatius paused in thought...
Page 66 - "Oh, aye," Thaddeus agreed. "Consistency!...
Page 67 - "Whatcha mean by that?" asked Thaddeus.
Page 68 - "What about chameleons," suggested Geoff.
Page 69 - "A what?" asked Thaddeus.
Page 70 - Rachael turned to Pete.
Page 71 - "...we can but only be the best that we can be, otherwise."
Page 72 - After a brief pause among the hubbub...
Page 73 - "Sa we may as well do what we will," Thaddeus stated.
Page 74 - He briefly watched...
Page 75 - They summoned Pete and all three came to sit with Ignatius.
Page 76 - Six ears were turned immediately in his direction.
Page 77 - "You said you think so," Sandra noted.
Page 78 - "I have to agree with Pete," Slide added.
Page 79 - "Then let's give 'er a ring on the dog, right now," Pete suggested.
Page 80 - An Erinac, perhaps in his late twenties approached the table.
Page 81 - "Yessir, what can I do for Yer Honour?" Johnny asked.

Page 89 - "Honestly, Grace," Simon admonished quietly.
Page 90 - Abandoning the lower section of the refrigerator, he explored the freezer...
Page 91 - After a splutter or two, water began to come out of the faucet.
Page 92 - "Hey, there's steam coming from that water,"
Page 93 - "Yes," said Simon. "It's not quite like home...
Page 94 - Simon walked up to the glass fixture.
Page 95 - "Yeah, like when it hasn't been on for ages. Sort of a burny smell."
Page 96 - Simon covered his mouth in panic.
Page 97 - Once Grace had completely disrobed...
Page 98 - "That big honker of yours poked me in the eye...
Page 99 - After a thorough scrubbing

Page 107 - "But has any one seen me pouting that my feelings are hurt?
Page 108 - "Well, I happen to feel that there's nothing wrong with a proper ribbing...
Page 109 - "I beg your pardon?" asked Ignatius.
Page 110 - "Shave me, ya don't need Ig for proof.
Page 111 - "So, as we have concluded...
Page 112 - Ignatius awoke and, as was his habit, made some tea.
Page 113 - Ignatius thought how lovely it would be...

Page 115 - "Speaking of Gina...
Page 116 - "Did you see Geoff or Linda?"
Page 117 - Simon and Grace woke the next morning.
Page 118 - "Oh, lovely. Could use a cuppa 'bout now."
