| Well, the votes are in and counted and although we had so many excellent entries to consider, we have a result. Our winners for March are And well done to Javabee and Insideoutlaw who ran a close second. I'll let Riders and Cimarron sort out how they divide the ex-outlaws bearing their gifts up between themselves. No fighting, ladies. | |

| Hi Everyone, I see that Javabee has since had another vote. Unfortunately, it was placed after the poll was closed so I have to make the decision that this very special story can't be a winner on this occasion. I do send some very special outlaw love to Javabee and some goodies as a consolation prize. I am so sorry, but the cut-off for voting is midnight (in your own time zone) on the seventh and only two stories had four votes when I counted on the eighth. Sorry, Javabee.

| Hi Riders, I'm a Kid girl myself, so if you are a Heyes fan we can come to the perfect arrangement. Oh, Javabee. You're a winner in my book. I love your story and can't wait to read more! I'll be sending the boys for a visit. | |

| Oh, oh -- I'll wrestle you for the Kid. Or maybe you have him for half the month and I have him for the other half. Javabee -- loved the story -- we'll send Heyes out to join you for a consolation coffee (and wine and chocolate, and whatever) | |

| It's hard to imagine Hannibal Heyes as the consolation prize, but no argument here! I will be happy to get him out of the way for you two so you can concentrate on your wrestling match for the Kid. Thanks, ladies! | |

| LOL, Javabee. You're one of life's givers, giving that poor lonely boy a home! I want him returned at the end of the month in good working order, remember. | |
