Posted on Fri, 15 Jul 2022

No-one gets double time anymore do they, more like half-time and make sure you get in done in half the time too.
This part of the story is creepy, please don't cut it short because creepy isn't easy to convey. There is something both...

I don't want them to get caught but what a burden this is to have a dead body to get rid of. I can see why Uggly Puggly is down, he's the only capable person, but capable of anything.
