Summary
Algy took hold of Ginger's chin and tilted his face towards him, something that would have been considerably more enjoyable if they had been at home, instead of sitting in a cramped late-night café with half a dozen other people milling around them. And if Ginger's face hadn't been smeared with blood.
A quiet evening turns out to be a bit less quiet than Algy and Ginger were hoping for.

Summary
Bertie was on the verge of giving the whole thing up as a bad job. It had been an early start from Chedcombe, the old horsebox a considerably slower affair than the Jaguar, and even without any cargo it would be a long drive home.
At the sales looking for a new hunter, Bertie runs into a friend.

Summary
Gimlet sounded almost fond, or as close to fondness as he was likely to get for anyone who wasn't a dog or a horse. "He also informed me that it was, and I quote, jolly important that the appropriate ceremonies are observed, given you're stuck out here until tomorrow."
"Observed by whom?" Algy demanded. He had a horrible feeling he knew the answer.
Bertie has a bright idea to help Algy and Ginger out on a special occasion.

Summary
The only notable moment of the entire affair was when a tall, tanned, good-looking man with dark hair, in the uniform of a Major, had come striding up the stairs, two at a time, like a bolt of sudden lightning through the otherwise muted atmosphere of the offices. Algy followed him with his eyes, taking in the long lean stretch of his legs and the sharp, cold cut of his gaze as he scythed through the scatter of staff officers.
Major Sterne is bored. Algy Lacey is in over his head.

Summary
It was all very well for Biggles to say that they should get some rest, Ginger thought as he rolled over for what must have been the fiftieth time in the last five minutes, but it wasn’t exactly easy when every time he shut his eyes he could see— No, it was too horrid.
Set during Biggles Delivers The Goods. Ginger struggles to sleep after the rescue raid. Algy finds a way to help him.Bookmarked by blackbentley
