(When Kenny left, Julie was hardly a replacement.) Lynda would never have
let Spike come to that coctail party if it wern't for Kenny. If Lynda wasn't
so proud (and admitted to liking Spike) Kenny would never have lost his
connection with the Dublin Girl. While Kenny keeps loosing out, Lynda and
Spike have something right there in front of them. Kenny has given up a
million chances for them and still they won't go out. I say it's a pity
Lynda is the way she is.
Feel free to argue,
Giulia.
P.S. I read back the old Mail Box files on "Why did Kenny leave?" and I
think they say a lot about Kenny and why he ends up missing out - with many
thanks to Lynda! I read over the old stuff 'cause this is only my first
message to the Mail Box - I hope I have done it right!
