I think I've got all the Susan stories in the right order after a lot of to-ing and fro-ing. Phew! And finally there is the final part that is devoted to Susan. Next, we will have some from George's point of view and then we'll move on and see what happens.

First though, I must carry on with Jake white, will he hang or will he get away? Watch this space!

Well it's been an awful week except that Her Loveliness has been feeling well. But depression and indigestion and a burst water main in the drive, and Dwr Cymru leaving a hole rather larger than the Grand Canyon meaning that we couldn't get the car in or out, then sent some men who closed the wrong road so the gang couldn't work on it and no bugger knew what was going on, and then I lost a complete chapter of Susan, And to top it off I realised just how bloody silly the chapter names are because even I couldn't work out the order. But then I never expected it to be more than two so it didn't matter, and it appears it will run to seven.

Let's hope the scores are better on this one, Once Again's first two votes totalled 4.15, I don't worry that much (he lied) but someone said to me that they never read anything with a score less than 8. So only one of mine and I'd say they were missing a hell of a lot. Particularly mine.

You know I thought I'd deal with Susan in two episodes and here we are with no.3 and there will be another. I also know that there are people waiting for more Jake White, but that is much harder to write and I'm essentially lazy, and Susan is generally much easier. Except that this episode suddenly took a turn that I wasn't expecting, because the character simply wouldn't do what I told her. I had the same problem with children. Enjoy!

I tried to keep Susan down to a couple of episodes, but it seems she's got another one yet and then we can go back to the farm and see who George is sleeping with now and how the business is developing. After being told my descriptions were a bit lacking, this one is 500 letters/spaces. Enjoy

I had a message from someone who told me that my story description sucked - his word, I'd have said crap - and he is quite correct, I'm a better salesman than that! Like my old school reports I could do better.

I wrote 'The Engineer' as a series of stories rather than chapters because it works better for me, but it is best treated as one long story.

It doesn't seem possible to change the story description once you have posted.

So, Susan three: This story is part of a side branch of 'The Engineer' series. In this episode Susan muses on the changes to her life over the past few months, helps a distraught Frankie, does an interesting fashion shoot and has a big surprise when she gets home. It is best to have read the previous two stories in this series, but even better if you have read all of 'The Engineer'.

There we are, I'll now go back to writing the next episode. Oh yes, and Jake White is in my mind, but much more difficult to write than this!

Happy reading
