Unfortunately, if this is the result we are going to have to encourage others to give you more un-called for shite reviews.

I thought of dedicating the story to the troll but I can’t bring myself to do it. But the reviews give me a nice warm glow and I think the troll is well and truly splatted by the Great Big Billy Goat Gruff of Unintended Consequences.
