    The Wheel's On The Bus

    Jack handed his coat to Tony. It was a large, leather affair, which, up until now, had hidden the feather-light crumpled black shirt beneath it.

    The Wheel's On The Bus

    Another drink came and went, to be replaced by a twin. "I'm from Horsham," he replied, supping his drink, and hardly realising how much he had already had.

    The Wheel's On The Bus

    The Wheel's On The Bus

    Jack gave a polite chuckle at the man's words. He was sure he recognised him from somewhere, though he couldn't quite place the face. "Oh," he said, surprised the guy had even asked, "No idea."

    Jack allowed his hand to instinctively rise up and grasp hold of Edmund's hand. "Jack," he said, giving it a small shake, before releasing his grip.

    Jack shook his head mournfully in response. "No," he answered, looking anywhere but the man's face, "no, nothing like that."

    How Many Shoes Fit In A Purse?

    His eyes were fixed on this man's face, though the rest of him went unnoticed to himself, and he seemed not to realise that this stranger was holding him up.

    How Many Shoes Fit In A Purse?

    In his drunken stupor, it took Jack a few moments to realise that he had quickly become the focus of the man's attention. His stomach lurched.
