Chatting at the Bar

A brutal murder has taken place in the small Highland village of Strathmorn. The accused claims that the ghosts from a local haunted manor are to blame!

Piqued by the alleged supernatural angle to the case, renowned Psychical Researcher, Harry Price, is seeking a team of responsible persons ‘of leisure and intelligence, intrepid, critical and unbiased’ to investigate the haunting.

Doesn’t that just sound like the sort of thing you’ve been looking for?

With a desire to stick to DEX order, I'll let the flatulent Father Shaban post his action first.

  Still crazy?  

That post made me laugh out loud. I have this mental image of a variation of the Beach Boys' "Still Cruisin'", in which they are singing "Still crazy after all this time..."

All too appropriate for that band too...

Whoever ends up being subsequent spokesperson for Our Heroes, it really should not be old Ascot. Not exactly his skill set. :D

I admit, his conversational skills may be a little bit hamstrung. Dates are going to be a challenge for the young doctor too.
