The better, I suppose, to confuse it with 50,000,000 Miles to Earth.<br /><br />I saw the color film in its first release in a double bill with Witchfinder General (aka The Conqueror Worm). This happened on a dark night at a drive-in in Seattle, Washington, 3000 miles from my home. I don't say that there's a connection, trans-temporal or otherwise, to the lost borer of your post... <br /><br />I do say, having just read your 2011 piece on St. Leonard's, Shoreditch linked from WO'C, that this movie experience was enough to actually change me <i>into</i> Nicholas Hawksmoor.

For a small consideration, I'm sure I could divert one across the 'dutch', as they are as easily diverted as our Prime Mustelid, and are entirely in thrall to Mr R Murdorc Esq. of New York.<br />Yours Sincerely,<br />Petal Cretin<br />CoS to Toady Rabbott<br />Prime Mustelid of Ozrhwombathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12965197378050915417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2814819843269246078.post-22596540024566127812014-12-09T23:18:39.113-08:002014-12-09T23:18:39.113-08:00Dear sir, I have read the preceding post with grea...Dear sir, I have read the preceding post with great interest and am subscribing to your newsletter. Why is it called "Filthy Sailor Ted's Naughtycal Adventures" is my only question in that regard.<br />But, in terms of tunnelling, I wish to ask a question, if I may. My hometown is planning on constructing a new underground railway system and we need advice as to the tunnelling machine to use. The substrata is apparently Rock 'n' Roll.<br />Yours Sincerely<br />Wynder K. Bullfrog.
