A Friendly Drink Or Three - Toro and Jim
This was the sort of evening Jim Hammond had never again expected to have.
Nights out for him were fairly rare these days - he preferred the comfort and calm of home more often than not - but the promise of sitting down to a drink with his son was more than enough to bring him out of doors.
That was the remarkable part, the part he had presumed lost to him except in memory; Toro's presence across the table, his warm smile as he slid into the opposite seat.
"There you are."
Jim's responding smile was just as warm.
