15 years since that challenge was offered and I am still not able to perform inside of a whale.
I can't help but feel every single issue I have would be resolved with a whale performance.

40K fans. Settle a ponder for me.
As a Space Marine, is it heresy to say you would like to give the Emperor a little kiss?
Or is it Heresy to NOT want to give the God Emperor a tiny peck?

I am enjoying the bizarre music choice before the immersive War of the Worlds.
I hope it continues.

Mr Suitcase was delighted to offer both curses and shiny rocks as part of @colabtheatre's venue launch.
There were boons, there were measurements of my legs, there was WHAT’S THE TIME MR OWL.
And also there were folks who literally were just there for the wings.

@kafkin.bsky.social you might know who.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but the only one stopping you from wearing a cloak of moss, a halo of Eldritch flame, and the antlered crown of a long dead forest god is you.

So @WinterNatters informed me that those born on Christmas Day cannot behold the supernatural.
We have deduced Noel Edmonds used his combination Birthday Christmas wish to behold a supernatural being.
And thus a pink and yellow creature smashed down a wall shrieking BLOBBY!

Tannoy: Apologies for us leaving Guilford a little late.
Believe it or not, someone was leaning against the train in order to do up their shoelace.
We will try and make up the time.

Dad: You could buy a Nebuchadnezzar of champagne.
Me: Or a Cask.
Mum: No Thomas.
Me: There is a good one. I can show you.
Mum: No Thomas.
Me: It’s just in the basement. Oh let me show you.
Dad: Is Nebuchadnezzar the biggest?
Me: Yes. WHY WON'T YOU COME INTO THE CRYPT!?

I am saving this moment to flash back to in 2094.
Me in my armchair slowly whispering "Too. Old. To. Tweedy."
And a single tear trickles down my wrinkled cheek.
