The Wülferhampton Clarion carries an alarming report that the Trump administration intends to annex the city, citing its vast reserves of slag. A spokesman said: “The Saxons have done a poor job of investment in the city, preferring to spend tax revenues on top table dinners for the elite.”

My grandson mentions that, in the past, German woodsmen would train male bullfinches to whistle tunes.
If you haven't heard this before, prepare to be utterly AMAZED by the bullfinch's ability to sing a tune so perfectly! #birds

I think most goths would like a horse skeleton but Feebles didn’t look too sure. Mari Lwyd looked like it was trying to sum up Feebles as well.

The water in your body is just visiting. It was a thunderstorm a week ago. It will be the ocean soon enough. Most of your cells come and go like morning dew. We are more weather pattern than stone monument. Sunlight on mist. Summer lightning. Your choices outweigh your substance.

The Thames has also been adopted by many other faiths/cultures too. Mudlarks tend to leave the offerings alone unless plastic or broken (eg glass) so they need to be cleared.

Fun day at the NEC yesterday for Comic con. The visitors who attended in costume had gone to so much effort.
We took young peaky blinder Feebles with us, couldn’t get her to visit father Davros!

This walking stick with skull pommel and emerald green eyes once belonged to Charles Darwin. Yep, you read that right! I bet you didn't know Darwin was such a dude. It's now part of the Wellcome Collection in London, and I think you'll agree it's pretty amazing.
