Stamford and Watson go for a ride on a tandem bicycle and talk about Holmes
(Tandems were first available from 1889, with patents for similar ideas from a few years earlier. Assuming Holmes and Watson met in 1881 in this series, like they are supposed to have in the books, then how is there a tandem already?)

Stamford...I have questions
In case you're wondering why this is such a big thing, Stamford in the UK is a very middle class/Upper class town. It's not unusual to see obscene sports cars or classic sports cars roaming the streets. Most of the kids are sent to the Stamford endowed school or as I call it "The wannabe Harry Potter school" and it's just very posh.
I don't live here. I work here and it's so middle class it's unreal...so when THAT appeared as a headline article on the local paper...Oh how I howled with laughter. Funny thing is, the article is even more hilarious..you can read it here but you will have to find a way around the fecking ads.
Anyway, THE JIST basically a man in his 70's went on his usual walk and found this doll. He thought it was an actual person at first but on closer inspection, realised it wasn't. He noted the "huge bosoms so thought presumably it’s a sex thing" (Literal words by the way!)
Not content with spotting it, the guy took pictures, showed his wife who then wanted to also take a look (WHY IN THE FUCK?!) And when she went to gawk, it had gone. Va-moused and the local council has said that they were not responsible for collecting it.
“We were disgusted that someone would be so stupid to do something like that to our beautiful countryside.”
I mean yeah...it's a bit bad to go tossing away your sex toys like that (See what I did there?) but just....It's just hilarious. It's like someone wrote a comedy sketch that couldn't be anymore beautifully timed.
To be fair....It has a nice shaped ass
Beautifully posed I feel.
Like some bizarre Renaissance painting.
Anyway. Link provided, have a giggle, I just wanted to share what made my morning today.
Tagging those who would get a kick.
