love it, as always

[candycandy]

That was such a fab story & funny too! I loved the idea of MRS. G + the girls having a pyjama party, all of them lying cosy in the beds telling stories: i know you don t see that on the show but i m sure it could have happened (if the writers ever had time for it) which is what makes FAN FICTION so great!
PS: for a minute i thought we were gonna loose MRS. G lol!
