01.09 THE SHERIFF

Franci brought with her a sherrif badge. It was a gift for Maddy who was enraptured by the gesture and tore open the package in a motion made swift by the number of times she's practiced drawing an imaginary revolver after walking 10 yards from an imaginary felon.

But there's only one sherrif in this here town of Nottingham.

And that's fine with Maddy. Tracking Robin Hood and his merry men isn't her cup of Texas tea. She'd rather take over a fort where there lie many more cowboys than in Notts.

She is set on the hunt for her Dallas dreamboy and otherwise will settle for a cutie from Calgary. I say she forgets the chase and gets herself a bucking bronco - that'll have them crawling back to the girl who wears the leather stirrups in these parts.

Yeeehaw.
