I think he's saying they're East Anglian seagulls, and therefore creepy. Precisely. It's the way they nick your chips. East Anglia isn't creepy either. |

Joking apart, archaeology is actually quite a dangerous profession. Nasty murder earlier this year in Athens. (All to do with building permits in the Cyclades) |

I have a Viennese cake-knife that is about the same shape as the blade that man is wielding. Remind me not to go to your house for tea... Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Even the fact that Ayger looks like a cross between the phantom raspberry blower and the phantom flan flinger doesn't make me less scared....

I don't suppose you'd care to say what, exactly, you're so scared of? I mean, you're not in East Anglia, you're not an archaeologist or historian (too many of them about anyway) and nobody is likely to have buried a crown in your library. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I mean, you're not in East Anglia, you're not an archaeologist or historian (too many of them about anyway) and nobody is likely to have buried a crown in your library. I lose myself in the story.

Well, that was interesting, with some nicely atmospheric scenery, but actually rather less scary than last week's. I'm not finding these anything like as creepy as The Turn of the Screw, for example. |
