Listening to the Andy Serkis reading of Lord of the Rings

Got used to impressions of film actors in the Fellowship, and folk of Minas Tirith being Yorkshire folk of a Derby nature

But Beregond and Bergil being Merseysiders was a surprise

We once had a v interesting talk from SEPA(?) about the river's hydrology. The river bed under the mud is less flat than you might think: lots of peaks & holes. The holes have filled up with historic, nasty industrial pollutants that would be disturbed if serious dredging took place now.

If you want your own pack of Maledictions, here's a link a downloadable file that you can cut out and wrap around a pack of regular cigarettes. I'm pretty sure we sized the file correctly but if not, please drop me a note and let me know.
