And I'm pleased that The Vampire mechanic has now been made available to pre order. And some mad fools have been ordering already...

I see what you mean about your thinking being dangerous to spectators

Place your wallet on the ground Sir, and step back carefully...

If anyone opens your wallet, they will be knocked back by an explosion of moths...

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Jim's wallet. I'm sure it has more in it than mine.

three of them. But on the other hand I don't have an ex
But two of the daughters have motorbikes

Oh dear.

My sympathies.

So you see that my wallet is a sad shrunken thing, a pathetic reminder of what a wallet should be. I open it a nothing flutters out but a few IOUs

See there - I am childless and I have crisp euro notes in mine.

Well, they aren't any good now are they?

They are here. We have shops full of things we can exchange them for. I can even use them on Amazon!

I thought Ireland was supposed to be an economic wasteland, with desperate survivors fighting pitched battles over the dwindling supplies of guiness...

Don't believe everything you hear on the news.

I think it was on the 'Olds', not the 'News'...

Well how about you come over here and see for yourself. You might find it pleasantly civilised after the wild and wooly wetlands of Wales...

Actually, I love Ireland. I've been a few times, and want to try Dublin in the new year

Dublin is shaking in it's shoes! Seriously, if you are around, let me know and I might be persuaded to buy you a drink. Only one mind...

Well there's a limit to how much Ovaltine a person can drink

Well there is Bovril and Cocoa available as well.

how much excitement can a man take!

That will be an interesting experiment...

I don't drink Bovril. If that's the limit of the city's excitement, I might change my mind.

(I could do with a new one.)

We have a few mind shops, so you can pick one up over here. we have a large range of alcoholic drinks to, should you wish to try a new experience. And a couple of excellent vegetarian restaurants.

Oh and book shops, and music shops.

I think you need a special licence to experiment on mammals

I got that years ago Jim. Its a handy little sideline for the dungeon.

Book shops? Music shops? I'm sold!

Now, for a space in the diary. Then, to work out how to make the trip tax deductible...

so your slogan 'no cute furry animals were hurt in the making of these screams' is entirely correct?

Absolutely Jim.

Were you going cheap?

Arrrrgh! I am on the train home and it is infested with shrieking yeenage girls. I think you will understand. . .

Of course. I was a yeenager myself once!

I wish, I wish!!

Teenagers.

*Shudders at awful memories*

And yeenagers are even worse!

There's never a fairy with a magic wand (or even a high volume hosepipe) when you need one

No teenagers in my ivory tower... sigh.

Ivory is socially unacceptable these days.

You need to relocate.

Well its 5000 years old, and made of mythical creature's horns.

Well they weren't mythical when she hunted them to extinction for their ivory, but they are now

It wasn't me, I'm not 5000 years old! It was the previous Medusa. I just inherited it from her.

hmm, no record here of death duties having been paid

Mythical beings don't have to pay death duties. I think its because there is a bit of a problem collecting them.

Bet George osborne would have a go

Could he stand up the army of mythical beings protecting my tower?

Gingerlily (or Cyberlily..) wrote: "Could he stand up the army of mythical beings protecting my tower?"

Politicians are used to mythical beings, they must be the way they talk about 'honourable members' and suchlike.
Any mythical beings would be sucked down into a morass of well dressed mediocrity and would vanish without trace, leaving not a ripple in the sea of plump, well fed and well scrubbed faces

Maybe... but I have backup. You don't think the Medusa has survived this long with just one protection...
