• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

I have just finished listening to this week's helping of SSH. A great show, guys. Well done. I was so inspired by the show I had to try a decleansing cup of hot water, but no, it's not for me I'm afraid - a glass of red anytime. A big thank you to @Jonny for reading my flash story so well. It was surreal hearing it read out aloud. Thanks again and looking forward to more Short Story bites in the future! Keep going. Benjamin
 
Thank you for the kind words @Benjamin S It was a pleasure to read and easy too. Not many stumbles or fluffs when recording it. Always a sign of good tight writing.

I'm with you on the hot water thing too. B loves it though, there's no persuading her otherwise, but at least it means she's always on the ball when we're recording ;)

Glad you're enjoying the shows. They're fun to make.
 
.... ok wine.
I knew it. It's all an elaborate front. ;)
And I'm with @Barbara on the hot water... With a nice dollop of Apple cider vinegar to make it lip-slappingly tart and deeeeeelicious!
This is obviously one of these instances of language always ever evolving. Delicious? Shurly shome mishtake?
