    It is a wonderful image, and yes, the shadows are beautiful.

    And I am now spending more time than I really ought traveling the streets of Aberdeen via Street View.

    I like that his disappearance is the part that’s unexplained.

    And the observation that “buying a plastic horse mask is not beyond the wit of man.”

    depends on where you live.

    Maybe the Abderdeen Horse Boy went down to Edinburgh to that joke shop that Wil showed us.

    You could remove the head from this pantomime horse costume.

    Guys, it’s just a furry. Move along.

    A furry and a schoolgirl in uniform.

    They were going to be shooting a short film catering to a very specific niche.

    Dave, that reminds me of this recollection from India and of Michael’s response to it.
