Hey @tremendospercy sorry for not being around to leave an earlier comment, but what an epic story! Very clever!! I think I picked up all the hidden references and dates. But now I come to mention it, I may have to go back and read it again! Mate this post was as captivating as it was enthralling .. and yet carried an air of beauty that pervaded each word. A really difficult balancing act dude, I'm seriously impressed! And once again on the dates and references front, great work! It adds a multi-dimensional aspect to an already brilliant story. If this isn't a serious contender I'll eat my shoe! And after a weeks hiking in the Scottish Highlands it's a shoe I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy :) I've said it before and I'll say it again "great work my friend"
