Denouement
YOU SHOULD NOT READ THESE WORDS... Writing them was worse, but justified. The fact that this is what it took to finally bring closure to this situation between you and your friends is horrible, but necessary. 'Friends'...that word should now and forever take on an entirely different meaning given our decision to perform this heinous action. None of them would ever suspect that you of all people would be capable of such. Yet here we are...and here you are, eyes of confusion laced with defiance still traveling along the words that will define a moment for us all...

The Lifeguard
It ain't Baywatch. The uniforms are the same but Melmsford Swimming Pool is very different to Malibu. When I started training, I envisioned fishing out gorgeous babes full of gratitude and silicon. The truth is I'm more likely to be fishing out a plaster from someone's gullet because of a rogue wave from the adjacent lane and an ill-timed intake of breath.
