Well, the joke might have gone over better if one didn’t need to use Google. I knew what chilblains were, but I didn’t know that a Dutch Waltz was a figure skating routine, and a martingale was a type of horse. Gosh, no matter how old you are you learn something new each day.

Great names but no character development. Looks like the publishers will turn this novel down too Snoopy.

Well, apart from the names, I also like fonts.

Martin Gale? Never heard of him, and he’s about the last man I’d want to marry! 8^)
