Our Extraodiary World

A coordinated attack on London Underground occurred on 30 October 1883. The first at 8.05pm when an explosion occurred in the tunnel between Charing Cross and Westminster stations. Fortunately, no train was passing through at the time, but passengers awaiting trains at either station were showered in broken glass and dust. The explosion left a small crater 4x3 feet and 1 foot deep.

“The series tells the story of a top-secret division of the British intelligence forces that recruits child spies; adults, apparently, never suspect that kids are spying on them. On Friday at 2PM, the theatre group 2K presents an adaptation of Through The Looking Glass.” (Family p.8)

“The Mad Hatter will be in residence with his tall tales, cakes and cold tea, and you can enjoy a game of flamingo croquet or hunting the White Rabbit. Not only that, but between screams of ‘off with her head!’, kids also have to persuade the Queen of Hearts to direct them towards their prize for making it through Wonderland in one piece. As with MI5, only the brave need apply” (Guide p.43)

She can't look like a marzipan pig, you know, that's what I hate the most. You know, high cheeks and pink skin, that's what I hate the most. They should have a bit of gypsy blood in them, you know.
