Okay.... I am coming to this Nathan Slake / Terry Freedman literary party a little late. I am starting from the beginning and give you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Best line? After the Shakespeare, the policeman saying, " -- Now, look." Cracked me up. Wish I could get in on this. ha ha ha. Love the latest installment. And "follow the cat" is right up your alley, Freedman.
‘A riddle is also a kind of sieve’??? No, I didn’t know that! Hmmmm...
I love (is that really the correct word?) the photos of London. My goodness, it’s been spruced up. The old parts of cities are a bit creepy, but they’re being pulled into the 21st century whether they wish to or not. I never want to delve too deeply beneath the paint and gloss. I guess us older folk have memories of much grottier, grittier times. We know what lurks... shudder...
An interesting update to Nathan’s words. Riddles indeed. And oh so British.
More splendid photos, Terry! I love the purple glare in the Libreria. Eerie! And, as for Shoreditch Road, well that is so dramatic and stark, I am afraid I will have to purloin it for another 50-word fiction. Gorgeous! I haven't read your shared fiction yet, but I will.
Just wanted to let you know that after weeks and weeks of reading “Start the Week”, I finally looked up persiflage in the dictionary. Next week check with me to see if I remember what it means?
Love the Vulpes continuation, I think Nathan should narrate NS. :) And the Ear! Gosh, Where are Pyramus and Thisbe? They can whisper through it, secretly.
I must say, bookshops like the one you describe are my favourite kind, esp. if there is a cafe connected to it, so you get the book and you sit down and read, a quiet cafe, for readers.
Thanks much for the mention, Terry and spreading the sand, I mean, word. Let's read Dune. The Spice Must Flow!

Oooooh, thank you for this terrific tour of London, Terry! Libreria sounds amazing - I love the idea of organising shelves by theme.
Tell me, are you a Beigel Bake shareholder?
Now that story took an interesting turn! Love it! Let's see what Nathan does with this.
Thanks for the shoutout. Will YOU read Dune with us? 😁
That dog seemed to be processing the past, there...
I loved the collab with Nathan, Terry. So good.
Oh my, Terry, that was so good!!! I wasn't expecting that turn of events at all, and the style, the obscurity and riddles in my replies ... I love it!
You could probably write a book of dialogue between the officer and Shakespeare quotes.
Love the exploration of London.

Another good read. Thanks so much.
Hamlet and Bolaneo-esque labyrinths? Wonderful.
I loved the story continuation. I certainly hope that Nathan does not get the prod!

Love that pink ear!
