Spring Workshop extension
Due to the number of pm's i'v recived about the workshop a number of requests have been made to increase the deadline. I was not going to move the deadline but after we have only recived 3 entries for the workshop i've decided to extend it by one week, this will allow users to get a story in and if the 3 who submitted their story to edit or add to them.
So the new deadline will be Friday 9th August 2013 at 12 noon (UK time)
Let's hope that we can see some excellent new stories and I hope that this will be a excellent workshop.

Too bad to hear that, your ideas for the story sounded quite interesting and I hope you finish the story nonetheless.

Ouch.
I'm sorry Fats. I hope you'll get better soon.
As you know my connection is limited, so I can't help you this time.

I'm pleased you're still with us, Fats.
I just had a good idea for the next workshop theme: 'superheroine goes over-the-top punishing drunk driver for injuring her friend.'

To dru and raa, I know exactly how you feel I lost my wife in a hit and run earlier this year, the police asked if I wanted to prosecute, i told them under no uncertain terms i would.

Sorry to hear what happened to your wife fats. My condolences. Hope the person who hit and run your wife will be captured and will be persecuted and jailed for what he/ she has done.
May also the driver that hit you be jailed for a long time so he can't harm more innocent people.
Hope you get well soon fats. At least you are still alive and here with us Fats. Have a speedy recovery ahead of you fats.
