The way I read Dude's post under 'New for 2021', there will not be any revisions to the story. He is simply reposting excellent stories from the past exactly as they first appeared. I do recall reading this one and will definitely enjoy reading it again.

Possibly, but I was advancing by six again as from B to H.

Should be Norton coming next...

A real Christmas cracker of a story. Oh wait - you Americans don't 'do' Christmas crackers do you? Well, read the story and you'll know what I mean. 🙂👨‍🦽🍪🎂🎄

I should really let Rutabaga speak for himself, but as I read his post he was simply saying he was confused because he had already read Chapter 14 when it was posted as Chapter 13.

Altemexis may have a valid point in normal circumstances. However, this story is being written from two points of view and it so happened that Chapter 13 was Daniel's and Chapter 14 Robin's. Consequently, unlike a normal story where missing a chapter would cause considerable head scratching for readers, in this instance it didn't cause that much of a problem.

Is Robin going to get a real Foster father?🙂

Even more varieties than Heinz!😀

This is off to an excellent and entertaining start. It will be interesting to see how the various relationships develop as Johnny's arrival changes what was the norm.

I happened to come across this shortly after reading the story. Could it be 'The Revenger of the Nerds'?

Does this lab take the biscuit?

Interesting to stumble across this same story back in 2018 with a different author! http://www.awesomedude.com/kewl-dad/the-secret-life-of-nerds/the-secret-life-of-nerds.htm

Rather than say anything publicly, I did send a PM to the person in question, saying that the AD site appeared to be functioning normally and there was no indication of the owner being ill. Interestingly (perhaps) I have had no response to that message.

Something certainly needed refreshing!! 😁
