A brilliant update. I love Martina, and can’t wait to see how she gets together with Joey. I like the way you’ve portrayed Shifty. He deserves to end up with concrete boots in the Mersey.

I like how this is going so far as it is written well as well as interesting . I love how the little girl saw her tatoos as "pretty pictures".
Shifty sounds really dodgy going as far as drugging her coffee. I'm abit confused when Shifty says "Night Michael" to Celia is it her last name or has she changed her gender from male to female .Or something else entirely.
Looking forward to reading more of this story.

This new chapter is everything good and beautiful about this fic and I am so glad you've updated it! Martina listens to Lordi and watches eurovision and gets a bazillion more cool points from me, and Shifty is the slime of the earth and I want to punch him. Also, I really love how you tackle issues in this fic such as the judgemental mother. And also Celia is amazing in this fic and I am keen to know how the Martina and Joey relationship will progress!

Argh I love this! I love how Shifty has all his girlfriends' names tattooed on him, that sounds like something he'd do, and great to see Martina at work and sad to see the discrimination she faces because people see the stereotype. Ahahaha I love Joey iin this- 'I thought only teenage girls listened to ipods' hehe. And 'all it plays is loud growling sounds' hehehehe. I love their banter but that they're fascinated with each other.
And a very nice meta reference in there ;)

Apologies for the shockingly late review, I'm never logged in when I check for new fics, a pathetic excuse I know. Anyway, I absolutely love this one. Martina is fabulous in it (she's my favourite Bread character in case it wasn't obvious) and I keep hoping for an update.

YOU FREAKING STARTED THE FIC! And I love it! Martina is awesome! Like seriously, awesome. I can't wait to see how Joey persists *grins*

It's finally up! And I love it so much. Love Martina's outfits too...and the modernised version of Joey, and how much he irritates her already and they've only just met! So excited to see how this story pans out.
