Thanks Cougar and Zim, yeah I like the open ending, not sure if there will be another part to it, I think about where I could take it and what would happen to our little Amazon etc.
I don't like masses of un-needed detail either Zim, when you read some of the classic novels, pages are spent describing a mountain side or something else and you just think "Get on with it already!" that's why I didn't go into much detail about the mansion, the reader can make it look the way they want to suit themselves to some degree.
