Definitely a 2, and looked like a 7 'having messed it up and tried to fix it'. Artistic licence - go with me on this :)
As for the travel episodes - they're all fictional. More ideas of travels turned into stories. Don't take any of these too seriously. Creative writer at work. I hope it works out in the end. So far the idea seems right.
Yes, seems you have some catching up to do. I'll start the clock now...
Always good to read your comments.
I believe all your fiction to be true, so we're at an impasse here, mate. I'm slowly gaining ground. It only took a few days too! I'll chalk it up to an achievement.
I confuse myself on that sometimes also. Perhaps too much first person perspective. And maybe some truth seeping into some of the story lines.
