'But every day could be the first time she did something.'
I like it. I like it very, very much. Things she's done a million times before seem new because she does them now happy and together with Jim. It's so sweet.
Or, perhaps, I'm just being sappy now...
Author's Response: Thank you! I am very sappy as an author and a person, so that's how I roll too...

I'll write my usually kind of review in a moment, but I'm pausing here. Caveman Jim watching a rugby scrum is just to perfect of a line. Well done there man, just well done.
I was kind of wondering how the second rugby game would go. You didn't dissapoint. I get the feeling that jim is now starting to relax a bit. In a good way of course. Pam's here, they're together, and he doesn't have to constantly impress her or do anything to keep her there. She wants to be with him for who he is not what he can do to impress her on a first date. It's a subtle but to my mind important change. Rather than building the foundation for their relationship, now they're onto building the first floor and room. What they like doing together and having fun at the same time. Just a lovely way to watch the relationship progress.
Same goes for Pam. Previous memories I'm sure will contine to be a part of her thinking for a while yet. This is still early in the Jim and Pam part of things. However it's a joy to see her explore this new and so much better dynamic with Jim. Great chapter.
Author's Response: Thank you! I really appreciate it.

Screen time at work has been doing my head in, so screen time for leisure has taken a hit...
I have to say, I wasn’t expecting learn anything about duck penises in catching up with this story, but here we are.
All their activities were great. I liked the touch of Jim falling asleep during performances, that was a fun piece of backstory.
I’m still very much with this story - even though I’m a little slow on the reviewing these days.
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you're still with us, and I totally get the screentime thing--doubly so when you have your own fic to consider.

Still riding high, just how I like it. Great as usual, see you next time!
Author's Response: Thank you! I had a lot of fun with this one.

I've finally caught up (again) with this story- five or so chapters I think!
Now that things have fallen into place, it fun to tour Sydney with these two and have them enjoying their own interests and each others. I especially liked that Jim is into classical in the last chapter and how Pam described her experience. Reminds me of how Kandinsky approached art.
As always, this is great and such a nice escape when trapped at home!
Thanks for writing!
Author's Response: Glad you're caught up! I'm glad you're enjoying the little details as well as the big sweep of the story, and thanks!
