New writings

[caddyman]

Tomorrow I hope to be able to post up the latest part of Dimpler Towers somwhat later than intended.

For the first time, I have run this past someone for comments ahead of publishing - in this case ellefurtle, who has made a number of useful suggestions, not least concerning sentence length! So while what you will see is all my own work, it's not the first iteration by a long chalk.

In the meantime, I am looking for a new name for the village: we're not sure that Little-Whittering-in-the-Stubble really works, though I have left it that for now. I am having difficulty in coming up with a fictional village name that sounds plausible but odd; the moreso because there are many real village names in England that just sound odd.

Any suggestions?

Edited to add: Typo there - it's Little-Whittering-in-the Stubble, which I have now corrected.

It's clearly near the hamlet of Crust and it's companion the even smaller Upper Crust.

And there is always Morels and it's twin Lower-Morels.

Is it true that Little-Whittering-in-the Stubble is twinned with Pyongyang?

Oddly enough, amongst the possibilities we were pushing around were Upper Crust for a village down the road and Lower Standing for Little-Whittering.

I quite like Chipping Munter.
