It was long past time. One night, Adrian,

  • It was long past time. One night, Adrian, Gareth and their flatmates turned off the telly and the internet, and joined the magickal battle for Britain. King Alfred's shade raised
  • Hell but it was a kind of British Hell. Y'know, the kind, right? Sort of crammed and crumby, every thing's a little damp and depressing. British Hell really bites the fat red one
  • . Hell is British because it's very easy to commit infractions in Britain. There's all the table manners and there's the queuing and then other general undefined, unspoken manners
  • British Hell is unique. American Hell, three years after this tale was started, is painful to see. Americans lack table manners and tend to be docile and uninformed, as intended.
  • Australian Hell, on the other hand, is a party. They are already used to everything around them trying to kill them. Hell is just a warm bath before another night of drinking and
  • it's usually on the way to the servo to snag another pack of durries anyway. I turned to Steve-o, "Beer me mate". Steve-o grabbed a coldie from the ice filled tub in the back yard
  • and hollered to Stella, who was busy arranging the wattles in a nice aboriginal vase. "Keep yer Marmite in, Steve-o," she hollered back as a passing dingo ate her baby. "Uru," said
  • Steve, for it was the dingo's nickname. Stella rolled her eyes at Steve, who was about as helpful as a horse in back of a carriage. T'was not the last time she would kiss her grits
  • on the lips. This is one saucy story I tells ya. Stella wiped her mouth and regarded Steve the lackluster dingo. Stella resolved to level with Steve. "Alright Steve, let's toss
  • our cookies out the window and ride off into the sunset together!" And so, Steve and Stella flew off the cliff into the Pacific Ocean, never to be heard from again. The end.

    Wow. This story took exactly nine years, to the day, to finish. :)

    Sorry about this, PM Truss. I promise there was no magical intent (that I remember) behind my first fold.

    OK, maybe I should say there was no *specific* magical intent, given the wording of the OP.
