The Third D

You'll need 3-D Glasses to discover what's in this 3-D image.


Is it a Gregorian monastery up on a clifftop with a herd of cows meandering through the valley below and a busty milkmaid with a cheeky smile?

For Sale

For Sale. Massive secluded mansion house boasting:

- A spacious Hall, with hanging chandelier (currently awaiting a new rope).
- A poky Study.
- A Lounge.
- A large Dining Room, beautifully lit by one of a pair of candlesticks.
- A Kitchen with a beautiful selection of knives (one missing).
- A Library.
- A Billiard Room, sadly the table isn't working, needs the right size spanner.
- A Conservatory featuring a complex plant irrigation system of lead piping (with one section missing).
- A weirdly shaped revolverless Ballroom.
- Two secret passages.

It is unclear if there is anything upstairs.



Why won't this palace sell?

White Dog

Romain Gary wrote a book about a Chien. A blanc chien.



Samuel Fuller made it into a film about a dog. A white dog.



It concerns a dog trained by a white supremacist to attack black people on sight. It featured Burt Ives as a dog trainer called Carruthers, who considers the dog to be beyond redemption and wants it killed.


Is our Carruthers into dog slaying? Could you kill a Klan Chien?

Ock Toe Brr the Second

It's October. It's a Friday. It's not 1814.

In 1814, a British smartarse named Captain Philip Pipon informed Thursday October Christian that the mutineers of the Bounty had crossed the international date line heading due east and had neglected to amend their calendar meaning the day of Thursday's birth was actually a Friday. Apparently Pipon refused to refer to Thursday as anything other than Friday.

Makes you wonder if his father hadn't been right all along.


Spare a thought for Thursday October Christian and his incorrectly-calculated name on Fridays in October. This year that's five more thoughts. You've still got time.

Ock Toe Brr

It's October. It's a Thursday. It's not 1790.

On a Thursday in October in 1790, a son was born to Fletcher Christian, the leader of the mutiny on the Bounty, by then settled on the Pitcairn Islands.

Looking around for a name on a Thursday in October, he decided to name his firstborn Thursday October Christian because he wanted his son to have "no name that will remind me of England".


Spare a thought for Thursday October Christian and his foreign sounding name on Thursdays in October. This year that's five thoughts. You've got time.
P.S. It's Mr Carruthers' birthday. Possibly.
