Bottled Wasps

Synopsis:
Grace and Patrick have returned to the scene of their great romantic adventure, the small seaside hotel where they stayed when they left their respective partners in order to be together. During the course of an evening they realise that much has changed. Walter, mine host, has his own issues: defender of his country and its traditions and what thanks do you get? With a complimentary bar and a sniper's rifle that can take off the top of your head from half a mile away, how bad can it get?

Everybody Look At Me

Synopsis:
So Lauren's a casualty of the banking collapse and no longer a high flyer -but there are other routes she can take through life, every bit as fulfilling. Teaching, for example. Shaping young minds. and there are worse things in life than moving back into the family home to regroup and start the ascent again. But that's the problem with being an ex-high flyer. Back at ground level you're so much closer to reality. Whether you like it or not.
