You know, I thought I heard the belt slipping on the dryer, ought to make an appointment for that! Nice story, likable characters, keep up the good work.
The other comments are peoples opinions.
My opinion is this story ready just like some of the American TV programmes from 70's with their horrendous dumb scripts.
Do you have to improve for future stories? Yes.
Do you need an editor? Yes and I wish you the very best of luck finding one, they are as rare as hens teeth.
Oh and have you captured the essence of a septuagenarian? I can think of 2 that would easily fit in your story, I can think of others who would not fit in a million years so my comment to the anonymous woman in her 70's - I can say with confidence that she is full of shit.
Overall, my opinion is this is not that bad and I for one have given it a full 5* and made you a favourite as I wish to see how you improve in the next few stories.
Good one! Frankly, I was delighted to read longer paragraphs as far too many stories on this site contain paragraphs of no more than one sentence. Keep up the good work!
Great story, I'm no editor wanna be so I just read it for what it is. Amateur fiction. It does what it was supposed to do, provide entertainment
