Meades, you brilliant bastard!

[lakeslider]

Superior stuff, Meades makes it all so very fascinating--he should be elevated to the peerage because he too has a bruised amiabilty that only the fallen can hope to achieve. He is the man who knew too much.

Fiona - What courage! What fun! (Going to go look for her books...)

MeadesShrine - not sure if there's anything you can do about this, but the sound has packed up on the Bohemia clips, and maybe the others too though I haven't checked.

Splendid,splendid.Now fetch the laudanum dear boy.

Well when in Hastings!

[kerednotsdib]

Thank you, MeadesShrine.

You have immortalised a true hero.

The Bastard. He's making me look fondly on Hastings. I thought i was rid of the cursed place.

I think his pomposity is what is endearing. Pomposity is relative to who you are. Big words come naturally to Meades I think! I don't do monday mornings
