[QUOTE="Karin, post: 215528, member: 57167"] Thanks [USER=130]@stevew[/USER] for rating my story. :) * Later that evening were John Ross and Pamela Rebecca having dinner at the oil baron’s club. “So how was your lunch with your mother?” “Good actually,” Pamela replied. “We mended some bridges.” “I’m glad,” John Ross said. “No you’re not,” Pamela said. “Yes, really I’ve never had a problem with Afton.
