BUYING A TICKET FOR THE WINTER SOCIAL had been an awfully optimistic move from Mutt. As much as he wanted to go in, mooch around the tents, have a few drinks and loosen up, he’d slowly come to terms with how it was a really, really bad idea.

One by one each object went; all slotted into neat stacks. Hands now almost empty, he looked at the nearest person to strike up conversation just as a bolt of lightening illuminated the sky. Then came a booming crack in the distance, and he nearly smiled. “How many seconds was that- between the lightening and thunder?”
