Like the story a lot. AAAA++++

Enjoyed it as a flight of fancy, but just a tad over the top, methinks

Always an interesting and entertaining read! Never mind the rare typo. Thank you for writing and thank you for sharing your work. Good luck to you!

What an odd town where multiple police can be in one place in minutes, but not another place for days! Interesting story, even if, as others have said, a bit over the top.

Well done! 5*

You did a great job.

Thank You!

Wonderful story but as one reader said it is strange how the police in your story could be so lax in their response to a bad situation. Goood luck with your next story as it seems there are many readers who have enjoyed this one

Pikeys eh! What can you do? 🤷‍♂️

Cute story but only goes to show how useless the criminal justice is in deterring crime.

Your stories are always an enjoyable read and this is another one. Thank you for sharing.

Good story (5*). I disagree with the people commenting that it's odd for the police to be sometimes immediately available & sometimes not. Especially in a mostly rural location, where police may be covering a large area, this seems reasonable. Your explanation of being on call for a large event some distance away makes perfect sense to me, anyway. The attitude of the police in wanting to wait until they had enough officers present to go into a lawless neighborhood also makes sense and explains a lot.

A note for (some of) your US readers who might be confused on one point: in England the term "garden" covers what we would call a "yard" as well as what we would expect from the term. My English (former) neighbor used to say things like, "I was out mowing the grass in my garden," which sounds very strange over here. I've met it elsewhere since as well, and seen on line where some Brits were asking (with baffled outrage, it seemed), "What on earth is a yard?"

Another thoroughly enjoyable story. The odd typing mistake didn't cause any problems.

A well deserved five stars. Long may you continue providing us with an entertaining read.

I enjoyed this story... There could have been sexier descriptions of the interaction between the two MCs, but other than that, very nice!

Didn't think much of it. I'm sorry the author has cancer, but he's still sticking his neck out there with fictional contributions. This story is one endless succession of violent episodes without much redeeming activity to balance it. Thugs and police and Angela over and over again. It was too much and got old quickly. 2*

Good story!

I'm torn between 4 stars for a good story, and 1 star for useless "justice" revolving door system.

I always enjoy your stories, Oggbashan. Same with this one -- full marks: 5*. I wish you well.

The story line seemed to have good potential, but it was so dryly written that I had to give up reading it before I finished the first page.

Great story. Thanks.

It's great to see one in which neighbors help each other.

Don't they have guns?!

5 stars as usual from me. Your writing is wonderful & I hope you keep going with it.

All the best for your health.

You aren't the only one having to fight The Big 'C'. Regardless it was, and is, a great story..............

Australia doesn't have guns. See, that fixes hostilities and violence.

I enjoyed reading your story. The typos were frustrating, but minor. Having a proof reader might reduce that. As an American our spelling of some words are different, so I can't say how many were made, but if help is available try using it.

Again a fine story. Really enjoy your writing. Fuck the typos, it’s the story that counts and you are a master.

A very fun story about a bunch of dumb shits that didn't know when to quit. I think most bullies have a very low IQ..............5 stars

Vale, Ogg. One of a kind.

Entertaining like all your stories are. Well done (again)

I thoroughly enjoyed it, and hope that there will be many more to come from this author.

2nd time round.what a shame youve gone

Ogg was a legend. I will miss new stories from him. Despite joining the site only a couple of years ago, I have been reading stories here for at last 15 years. Never once did one of his stories disappoint me. Rest in Peace Oggbashan.

What a fucking stupid story

Strange but I liked the idea
