June Reads

Nine books read and reviewed this month, thanks to the combination of an increase in sleepless nights and the start of a new reading challenge over on Storygraph; History Girl Summer. As the ten prompts for historical fiction are intended to be completed over three months – June, July and August – this is more easy going, time wise, than Fantasy February so I only aimed to read three in June…

First Kiss (Green Wing Preference)

Caroline Todd: Caroline would talk herself out of the first kiss about a hundred times before just going for it. It would catch her off guard just as much as it would you. It would be short and sweet, possibly a bit awkward, but it would definitely get better.

Guy Secretan: Guy would swoop right in for that first kiss. He’d want to catch you off guard and leave you breathless. To see you smile afterwards would give him the biggest ego boost, just knowing he’d left an impression.

Harriet Schulenburg: After a bit of nervous giggling, mostly on her end, you’d be the one to lean in and kiss her. This would be followed by a few more giggles before Harriet realized how much she liked it and want to kiss you again.

Joanna Clore: Joanna would pounce on you the first chance she got and kiss you until you were positively breathless. She’d know she’d done it right when you were needing to hold yourself up afterwards.

Mac Macartney: Mac would set up a whole movie like scene for your first kiss. Beautiful location, romantic music, slow, deliberate moves until his lips were finally on yours. It would be incredible and something you’d remember always.

Sue White: There would be absolutely no warning to when Sue first kissed you. You could be talking and the very next second her lips would be on yours. You’d barely have time to react before it was over and you’d find yourself thinking about it for the rest of the day.

There are a lot of mysteries in our universe. Some probably more important than others but there’s one that really gets my goat more than many...

How. Did. Mac Macartney. Martin Dear & Guillaume Valery Secretan. Get. Out. Of. The. Goddam. Ambulance.

They never explain it!!! Never!!! We just get told in the first episode of season two that Mac’s in a coma. Martin’s alright & that Guy’s in severe trouble.

1) Mac being the kind man that he is who evidently cares for his friends like family told Guy & Martin to save each other and he went down with the ambulance & that’s why he’s in a coma. Which would mean that Guy would’ve had to grab Martin (who was paralysed at the time unless the paralysis wore off) and pull him out & they got out whilst Mac went down with the ambulance & severely hit his head.

2) Martin got feeling back in his legs again & panicked & the three men decided that instead of all waiting to die when the ambulance went over the cliff all decided to make a run for it and only Martin & Guy got out and Mac was injured.

3) Guy Secretan just left them. I adore both Guy & Stephen Mangan but let’s be honest here Guy was a compete self centred arsehole at times & he wasn’t exactly sober at the time so he could’ve just decided that it was every man for themselves & got out of the ambulance & just left Mac & Martin behind.

The only time Mac ever loses it

[paperbulletsoftheforebrain]

Mac’s comebacks in Green Wing are not only clever and funny, they’re, at times, educational. For example:

Guy: Caroline, there is a space in your place and there's me needing somewhere to be, and, you know, the problems interweave like a Jacquard loom.

Caroline: I don't understand.

Mac: It's a primitive punch-card system.

Caroline: I wasn't talking about the loom.

Guy: Can I have a room in your flat?

Caroline: House.

Guy: House. Can I? Just for a bit, until I get myself sorted out. Please? Don't look at him. Don't look at him, look at me. Please? I need somewhere. My life's so complex and difficult.

Caroline: Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, whatever!Yes!

Guy: Yes! (Caroline walks away)

Mac: A sabot, or the sabot, was a kind of wooden clog worn by impoverished French workers. As a protest against the Jacquard loom, which they thought would take away their jobs, they'd throw their sabots, or wooden clogs, into the delicate machinery to destroy its working, from which we get the modern word 'sabotage'.

Guy: Yeah, right. Now you've harshed my buzz, have you got a point?

Mac: If your plan to move in with Caroline is in any way an attempt to sabotage our relationship, I will hit you in the fucking face with a big wooden clog.

How They Ask You Out (Green Wing Preference)

Caroline Todd: Caroline would try to ask you out fifty times before she was finally successful. She’d come up to you a lot and just stare for a moment before running off. You knew what she was up to, but you didn’t rush her. You’d be there when she was ready.

Guy Secretan: Guy would sidle up to you, acting all cool before making a complete fool of himself. Trying to recover from his fumble, he’d ask you out and laughing, you’d reply with a yes, if only for the entertainment value.

Harriet Schulenburg: Harriet would be very shy in asking you out, having to be pushed by the other ladies in her office to approach you. She’d give you a very quiet offer to have lunch with her and be totally surprised when you said yes.

Joanna Clore: Joanna wouldn’t so much as ask you out as jump you in a storage closet or corner you in a hallway and kiss you. She knows what she wants and she goes for it, so if you’re in her sights, be ready for whatever she may throw at you.

Mac Macartney: Mac would just be direct with you. He’d give you a charming smile and ask you out. He’s a bit smug about it, so you might want to give him a bit of a hard time but eventually you’d say yes and allow him to take you to dinner.

Sue White: Sue would call you into her office, be wearing something sexy and probably showing off to some extent, making the offer of going out with her all the more tempting should you be inclined to refuse, though you absolutely would not refuse her.
