I know you didn&#039;t like those seasons originally but I can promise you that after having watched Dallas TNT those seasons are really great when you compare them. Especially season 9-10.

You know Bobby carried the bags for April when they went shopping in Paris, so I figured it was a Bobby thing to do. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink&nbsp; &nbsp; ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" />I guess not as this is a friendly community where people love to discuss soap operas. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile&nbsp; &nbsp; :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Also if nobody sent me feedback on my story I wouldn&#039;t be posting it.

Bobby put down a ton of shopping bags on the bed. “Home at last, I never thought you’d stop shopping!”“Well it would have gone a lot quicker if you hadn’t talked to Tammy and Hank for an hour!” Pam complained.“I’m sorry but it’s just that they are old friends from college and…”&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; “I kind of got that but you still shouldn’t have talked that long to them.

[QUOTE="Karin, post: 86763, member: 57167"] Thank you for the feedback[B] Ms Southworth. [/B]:) You are right when you say that Mario is not that interested in being a step-father to Becky. He is not planning to be an active parent to her. :( You are right Afton is expecting too much from her relationship with Mario. She thinks he is going to become a great father to her child. But I think it's mostly wishful thinking on her part. It sounds to me like you seriously need to rewatch season 9-14 (DVD) of Dallas some day. Because it seems like you've forgotten a lot of the plots then. I know you didn't like those seasons originally but I can promise you that after having watched Dallas TNT those seasons are really great when you compare them. Especially season 9-10. In fact I think season ten was one of the best ones in the entire run. I just love that season. Probably because it properly reunited Bobby and Pam. :kiss: Ironically I've watched the final four seasons of Dallas more times than the beginnings because I began to watch the show when Pam crashed into that tanker.

Nope I've only captured the scene where Sue Ellen finds out about Cally and punches JR!:lmao: Not the one with April, Tammy and Tracey. Or "The Bobby Ewing fan club" as I think April referred to them as being members of...:rolleyes: So sorry no photo, but if you go to Internet Movie Data Basis and look at the episode for the Oil Baron's Ball in season 12 you should be able to see all of the cast and then just click on the woman who played Tammy. If there's no picture you can google the name. Just a tip!

Okay so it's time for another [B]update: [/B] Bobby and Pam walked into their room at Southfork. Bobby put down a ton of shopping bags on the bed. “Home at last, I never thought you’d stop shopping!” “Well it would have gone a lot quicker if you hadn’t talked to Tammy and Hank for an hour!” Pam complained. “I’m sorry but it’s just that they are old friends from college and…” “I kind of got that but you still shouldn’t have talked [I]that long[/I] to them.

Then he sighed heavily. “I'm sorry I wasn't thinking. Still if you weren’t working in Los Angeles why do you wanna go back to work now?” “Because I’m totally recovered now and Rebecca’s older too, she doesn’t need me as much as before. So I figured it was about time that I’d start working again.” “I can understand that!” “So you’re not opposed the idea of me going back to work?” “No of course not, I’m just happy that you and Rebecca have moved to Southfork so that we can be a family again.

Bobby looked at her questioningly, “You want us to have another baby?” “No, I think we’re too old for that now and besides I am happy with the family we’ve got!” “Me too,” Bobby agreed. “I’m just saying that I’d like to work with something that improves the lives of children!” “Well maybe you should get a company that sells children’s stuff then?” Bobby suggested. “I haven’t thought about that,” Pam said thoughtfully. “But you might be on to something. I’ll think it over. Thanks Bobby,” Pam kissed Bobby briefly. “Well I’m glad that I could help,” Bobby smiled, as he did like the idea of Pam getting a new job as it meant that he might get more work done at [I]Ewing Oil[/I] too.
