Standing rooom only


Working towards his full human potential.
London 1750
Chimney Sweep: Get up the chimney and clean it.
Boy: No. It's dangerous and dirty.
Chimney Sweep: It will be good for you.
Boy: Bollocks.
Chimney Sweep: It will help you reach your human potential.
Boy: Go fuck yourself. I'm off to be a cutpurse.
The above is, of course, a genuine dialogue from 18th Century London.

The universe wants to play with you (part 33)

My dearest Hawthorn, I offer you my humblest apologies for my disappearance for the last 15 months. Time has treated me badly and I often had no idea when I was. One of the reasons for not writing is I was travelling around the parts of Europe that were previously part of the Soviet Empire, looking for something or someone, I wasn't sure. Still not sure now.

Where's the Chinese woman?
