This is New York’s famous statue of King George III, modelled on the equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius on the Capitolline Hill in Rome.

In July 1776 it was hacked to pieces, melted down and cast into musket balls to be fired at the King’s troops.

Strangely, it has never been replaced.
I have several of Jackie Morris’s pieces. She is a wonderful person. 😁
These may have been your first gramophone records but many decades before that you must have bought perforated scrolls for the PANHARMONICON in your long-forgotten youth PEF!! 😁
Don’t hold back Bardy. Tell us what you really think 😁
Are you a bit of a hoarder? 🧐
Noooo he has far better personal hygiene than us! But thanks for the reminder PEF! The sun is well over the yardarm and tis time for a little drinkie 😍

Ah I’m sorry Lady B.

I just can’t cook for myself when I’m on my own, not even a scrambled egg - dinner will be grapes and Monster Munch and any washing up will be left until a few hours before Mrs Ratbag returns 🙄
I threw four boxes of ancient cabling out when we emigrated that I’d been hoarding since the early 90s. Never once needed anything but YOU NEVER KNOW! 😁
It’s for your own good fiend! You listen to Dr Ratbag! We’ll soon kill those rotsome microbes or at least make them too pissed to infect anything 😁
Well mix you up a nice Ratbag Sling which will drive any nasties you have picked up away forever! Now where did we put the meths? 🧐
We didn’t know you were so wise in the ways of rodent medicine PEF! No germ will want to live in you after a couple of our cocktails 😇
Anyway if you do start to feel the onset of scabby pathogens you just let us know and we’ll consult Grandma Ratbag’s Book of Remedies and prescribe CURES 😁
That’s OK you can be a purely decorative addition and cast a gentle green glow over our tableau 😍
A perfectly legitimate response PEF! We are quite bitey too 😁
That’s OK you can live on the lawn with the other undead 😈
Then your way forward is clear!! 😍

And frankly we are shocked that you didn’t have your usual hunting attire with you! What if you had happened across a tasty moorhen or seagull? Eh? 😇

Obviously we hope you haven’t really joined the rotsome legions of the infected but perhaps it’s as well to make wise contingencies like leaving Clive to our tender care 😀

Don’t worry fiend! If your unwanted luncheon guests have given you plague we will look after Clive when you cark it 😇
With your green skin, plethora of sharp penguin spears and fearsome aspect? No fear! We’d scuttle off into the woods as quick as we could and never return 😁
Lurking around graveyards frightening the sexton eh? Happy lurking PEF! Try not to bite anyone 😍

“The Brexit Falcon”

The rain hit Clacton like cheap gin on an empty stomach. I was nursing a pint that had gone flat two referendums ago when she walked in — Britannia herself, draped in a torn flag and smelling of nostalgia.

“Mr. Farage,” she said, “I’ve lost something… my sovereignty.” .....
