In The Guide a couple get more than they bargained for when they take a tour of a historic houise - they find the guide is even more interesting than the house! In The Switcheroo, a young man climbs into his television set to swap places with his idol (as you do!) In A Noble Battle a medieval war is being fought with knights and kings - but is all as it sems to be? In Merlin in his Cave a "wizard" has made discoveries centuries before his time, but little thanks he gets for it. In The Man of the Run a fellow claims to be being pursued and seems to be spouting absurd conspiracy theories and to be quite delusional, but is he? In The Attack of the Gril People, a young chap encounters some very strange creatures on a midnight train trip. In The Good Samaritans a young man with good intentions carrie out a selfless act - and changes the course of history. In House of Animals a smart-Alec lawyer tries to talk a misanthropic academic out of leaving his estate to ..... some very strange pets. In The Last Waltz a very unattractive woman after being a wallflower for years finally gets asked to dance by an unbelievably handsome young man... In The Painting a woman takes to painting to escape the horrors of an abusive husband - and she does escape. Waiting for Anna is a story for modern times about foreboding and frustration. Don't try and anticipate the ending in these stories because there is always a sting in the tail (or tale!).
