The Man with the Watches
Originally written in 1898 as part of a series of short stories called Round the Fire. Doyle needed money to complete a house he was building in Surrey. Insert your own jokes about actors, bad movies and extensions here.
Rugby is a town in Warwickshire, 83 miles north of London. Yes, it is where the sport of rugby is named after - more specifically Rugby School, a famous private school.
Smoking areas in British trains were gradually abolished from the 1980s, the final ones going in 2005 (GNER and Caledonian Sleeper). I have a 2000 GB-wide timetable showing where smoking was still permitted. In some cases, the trigger for the ban was the move to air-conditioned stock that would result in the smoke circulating in the rest of the train.
A Gladstone bag was a rigid-framed small suitcase that could be opened into two equal halves, named as such due to its used by William Gladstone, four-time British Prime Minister, who would start his final ministry later in 1892.
The guard's van on passenger trains was generally a specific section of a carriage that also had a caged area for carrying luggage, parcels and caged small animals.
Willesden Junction is located in Harlesden, NW London. It no longer has any platforms on the West Coast Main Line, with Avanti and London Northwestern Railway trains going straight past it. Its passenger service today is made up of London Overground Lioness line services from Euston to Watford Junction, Overground Mildmay line services from Stratford to Richmond or Clapham Junction and the Underground's Bakerloo Line from Harrow and Wealdstone to Elephant & Castle. The first and third share the same tracks, while the second operates, on lines shared with freight trains, on separate "High Level" platforms. There is a depot for Overground trains nearby.
Non-gangwayed stock i.e. carriages with no connection between them even for emergency use, continued to be built into the British Railways, with quite a few of the "first generation" of diesel and electric multiple units being built this way. Most got gangways in later refurbishments, but the Class 205 DEMU, bar one example (205205) altered in a refurbishment trial, would carry on without them until final withdrawal in 2004. Most of the survivors then promptly ended up in the hands of heritage railways.
The Bible Society of London was founded in 1804 with the aim of providing affordable Bibles in people's own languages, after the 1800 case of a woman called Mary Jones, who saved up for six years then walked 26 miles to buy a Bible in Welsh. It is still active today.
The London to Rugby line had been widened to four tracks in the 1870s. From west to east, the tracks go: Down (Northbound) Fast - Up (Southbound) Fast - Down Slow - Up Slow. Ergo, you cannot move between two Down trains without a big leap. (https://www.opentraintimes.com/maps/signalling/lec2#LINK_1)
A bunco-steerer is a swindler.
Green goodsmen operated a scam in which people were offered purportedly counterfeit notes printed using stolen plates (so appearing genuine) at a cheap price, being shown actually genuine notes in a bag. During negotiation, the bag was switched for one containing worthless goods, like sawdust or green paper. Having been duped out of real money, the victims were reluctant to report this to police as attempting to purchase fake money was illegal.
Card-sharping is cheating at cards using various means, including cutting bits of cards to mark the ones you would want. Vegas casinos frequently deliberately cut corners off used cards being sold to tourists to prevent them being snuck into their games.
Tammany refers to Tammany Hall, the corrupt political machine that had ran New York City, for much of the 19th century, leveraging support from Irish immigrants by providing them with jobs for example. It had been temporarily ousted from power after the Lexow Commission of 1894-95 into police corruption; to wit, promotions were being sold for large sums of money and officers got that through extracting protection money from brothels etc. However, it would come back in the 1898 elections and retain control with occasional breaks until 1961, when Carmine DeSapio was ousted as its leader. It then lost power and had gone by 1967.
Travelling salespeople would carry samples or models of their products on their trips, sometimes in branded containers. This has largely become a thing of the past, but is still around.
Northumberland Avenue used to have a lot of high-class hotels, but these have mostly gone. Some were taken over for government use for a while, including by the War Office.
"Mary Jane" appears to have been a slang term for a male prostitute; Mary Jane Kelly was the final victim of Jack the Ripper.

FOLLOWING INSTINCTS
The Vajrayana is very much based on mind, and therefore feelings and inclinations are important. If you have an uncontrollable urge to follow someone, it may be a continuation of a certain guru-student relationship you had in your past lives. In the case of following your intuition, conventional ways of assessing the guru are not necessary.
When Milarepa first laid eyes on Marpa, Marpa was plowing a muddy field of barley in a cold wind. It was all rocks and slush - nothing remotely resembling the brocade, incense, and parasols we so often associate with gurus these days. But upon encountering this man, Milarepa was so moved that he felt a bodily sensation. It's believed that Marpa stopped working, surveyed Milarepa from head to toe, and then asked him to finish plowing the rest of the field. He also offered him a little wine.
And there began the great Kagyu lineage, which went into the ears and minds of some of the greatest kings, queens, and emperors this world has ever hosted, including those of the Qing dynasty.
This relationship could not have arisen merely because of Milarepa's mundane aspiration for a dharmic connection.
There must have been a residue of a long-existing karmic link between those two.
Even some of my own students, who I sometimes refer to as my "victims," have approached me without much sober assessment.
After a long search for a spiritual path, Mr. Watson from Australia ended up with me after having some significant dreams. He woke up instantly trusting me. Ms. Coelln from New York City says she knew she had a connection with me when she first laid eyes on my feet in 1996. She thought I was wearing Japanese tabi socks, and this alone made her decide that I was her guru, so she started attending my teachings.
Mr. Peters reckons I became his Vajrayana master because, after his countless supplications for teachings, I finally gave him instructions in the men's toilet at Denver International Airport, just before I flew away.
Mr. Peters had always been awed by brocades and thrones, but somehow the gentlemen's toilet at the airport did the trick. Another one of my student-victims, Stephanie, claims that upon hearing my theory that Van Gogh could have achieved enlightenment if he had the right view, she knew I was her teacher. She says it was as if she were hearing things for the very tirst time, and that was the beginning of our relationship.
So we are led by our emotions. But if possible, this is where modern Dharma students should be careful. The devil's advocate "head" must be invited to rein in the touchy-feely "heart."
If someone truly inspires you, this is good, but to be a vajra master, he or she must have the skill and method to crack open your cocoon. If someone can do this, no matter how seemingly undistinguished he or she may be, this person is your master.
It could be a khenpo with no rank at all.
Appearances mean very little here. I admire those who follow Alak Zenkar Rinpoche. He looks like a hot-bun vendor on a street in China, but appearance is definitely a deception in his case. When it comes to dedication and contribution to the Buddhadharma, especially within the
within the Tibetan lineages, he surpasses anyone with colorful robes and gigantic names.
Within my own circle of groupies, there are a few old fogies whose first encounter of me was when I was hanging around in the cheap pubs of London, wearing jeans and a T-shirt — hardly looking like a Tibetan lama. Somehow they became Vajrayana students. Today when I see them, it's encouraging because it confirms the Buddhist concept of karmic debt. Their approach to me as a Vajrayana teacher did not begin with all the usual props and sound effects.
So it's absolutely understandable when people are taken when they meet someone like Surya Das, who looks 110 percent Jewish, with his overgrown beard and oversize belly. His presence and his speech, and his very pushy being, inspires them. Not only inspires but unravels their cocoons and prevents them from going astray.
Our normal, rational assessment does not always need to take precedent. This person who can wake you up becomes what we call
"guru with the three unsurpassable kindnesses." Even if the guru doesn't teach with moving lips, he can be your master. It's very individual. In this way, you can even get the nature of the mind transmission from someone like David Noodle.
The Guru Drinks Bourbon?

Fic based on 11 from your Spotify Wrapped and any fitting TMA character/scenario
Oh no mine’s embarrassing. Teenagers by My Chemical Romance (I was feeling nostalgic. A lot.)
Characters: Gerard Keay and Mike Crew
Content: teenage AU
—
Gerard stepped outside of Mercury Caves, his preferred metal bar of choice, and picked up his cheap, disposable lighter he’d picked up from Tescos alongside his pack of 20 Lucky Strikes. He hated the taste but they fulfilled the habit he’d picked up at 16. He preferred being inside, the loud, heavy music dulling his thoughts as the guitar solos set off something pleasing in his brain. However, he knew if he didn’t have a cigarette break every hour it’d get far too overwhelming. He was almost enjoying the buzz of city sounds and cold air as he began daydreaming, letting his mind wander as he stared at his scruffy old Vans trainers. The sudden noise and awareness that someone was standing far too close to him shocked him like he’d shoved his fingers in a plug socket.
“So why’re you so special?” A well-spoken voice mumbled from beside Gerard, the accent caused his hackles to raise more than the surprise. He had grown to associate posher vernacular with certain powers in London. The tattoo just below his navel burned into his skin as he began to feel sick, confirming his suspicions. When he looked up he did a double take at who greeted him. Despite how sure of himself the young man sounded and the arrogant luck in his mismatched eyes of two different blues he wasn’t that intimidating. He was short, coming up to Gerard’s chest, and skeletal as if a gust of wind would cause him to topple over. He had lichenburg scars marring one half of his face and both of his arms. Gerard could only assume they also covered his chest beneath his striped t-shirt.
“Who said I was special, kid?” Gerard retorted. “Why are you out here? Isn’t it a school night?” He knew the comment was childish but the surprise had taken away the best that his snark could come up with.
“I’m 17 not 12,” the young man snapped. “What do you care how old I am?”
“Makes you underage mate,” Gerard pointed out. He took another drag of his cigarette. He stared at Mike as if daring him to ask for one. “And although this place ain’t that strict about it doesn’t mean I won’t tell ‘em to card you.”
“Why would they believe you?”
“What you mean the regular or the new kid who couldn’t ride the tall person rides at Alton Towers?” Gerard snorted. The young man let out a growl and went to kick Gerard’s shins, he caught it just in time and stumbled a little to the left.
“I don’t intend to go inside,” the lad mumbled, looking up and down the street. They were silent for a moment whilst Gerard sighed and began to feel sorry for the kid who’d been dragged into all of this.
“So. Take it your Fairchild’s new pet?” He eventually forced out, trying to be as respectful as his defences would allow.
“I’m not his pet,” the young man scowled.
“But you can now make people get vertigo so bad they shit out their kidneys and he makes you call him Papa or some shit?”
“Doesn’t make me do anything,” he mumbled. “You’re rude. I don’t care for it.”
“Whatever, I don’t care for Fairchild’s special little guy hounding me. So I guess we’re even.”
“Why don’t my powers work on you?”
“Ask Papa Fairchild.” The opening bass to Blood and Thunder by Mastadon hummed through the door and Gerard put out half his cigarette on the wall. “I’m going in. Fucking love this song.” He got to the door and turned his head. “If you come in though I will rat you out, alright dickhead?”
“You know, just because I can’t get at you now, doesn’t mean I won’t. Remember the name Mike Crew, because next time I come for you, you won’t be hiding behind mummy’s little shield,” Mike spat before leaving. The jibe certainly sounded better in his head, but it was enough to ensure Gerard’s shoulders stayed tense for quite some time.

Codename: Patch
Gender: UTP
Age: 20s
FC: Archie Renaux or UTP
Being a first year emergency medicine intern at St. George's hospital doesn't pay much, and in London it barely covers rent. But Patch is nothing if not innovative, and when they start offering cheap medical care out of the back of an old camper van in Peckham to their brother's friends, word travels fast. They stumble into the world of the Jolly Rogers by pure accident. After a shoot-out gone wrong and one of the Crooked Hand's assassins bleeding out on the street, Patch is first to dive in and help. They save the man's life which in turn leads to something similar to part-time employment for the Jolly Rogers, even if they don't consider themselves a part of the group. As one of the group's on-call medics they see a lot of shit and clean a lot of wounds, but it's all invaluable experience. It's a dog-eat-dog world out there and Patch is willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead in their field.

Navigating Man and Van Services in London: Comparing Prices and Services
Moving homes or transporting goods within a bustling city like London can be a daunting task. Whether you're a student relocating to a new flat, a small business owner moving inventory, or a homeowner shifting furniture, the need for a reliable and cost-effective transport service is paramount.
In this blog, we'll explore the world of man and van services in London, focusing on prices, services offered, and how to compare them effectively.
Understanding Man and Van Services
Man and van services cater to the need for transportation and help in moving goods from one place to another. They typically involve a driver (the "man") and a vehicle (the "van") equipped to transport various items, ranging from small boxes to furniture and appliances. These services are commonly utilized for small-scale moves, offering a more flexible and affordable option compared to traditional moving companies.
Factors Affecting Man and Van Prices in London
Several factors influence the pricing of man and van services in London:
Distance: The distance to be covered is a key determinant of pricing. Whether you're moving within the same neighborhood or across the city, the distance impacts the overall cost.
Size and Weight of Items: The volume and weight of the items being transported affect the price. Bulkier or heavier items may require a larger van or additional manpower, impacting the cost.
Time of the Move: Moving during peak hours, weekends, or public holidays may result in higher prices due to increased demand.
Additional Services: Some man and van services offer extra services such as packing, dismantling and reassembling furniture, which can influence the overall cost.
Man and Van Prices in London: Comparing Options
In London, the market for man and van services is competitive, offering a range of prices and services. To compare effectively:
Research Multiple Providers: Look for several service providers in London. Websites, review platforms, and recommendations from friends can be valuable resources.
Request Detailed Quotes: Reach out to these providers and request detailed quotes based on your specific needs. Ensure the quotes include all potential costs.
Check Reviews and Reputation: Look for customer reviews and the reputation of the company. A cheaper service might not always guarantee reliability or quality.
Ask about Insurance and Additional Services: Inquire about insurance coverage for your items and any additional services they offer. Sometimes, paying a bit more for added services can save time and stress.
Cheap Man with a Van: Balancing Cost and Quality
While everyone aims for a cost-effective service, it's essential to strike a balance between affordability and quality. Opting for the cheapest service might sometimes mean compromising on reliability or the safety of your items. Thus, it's crucial to assess the overall value provided by the man and van service.
Conclusion
Man and van services in London offer a convenient and flexible solution for various moving needs. To find the best option, one must consider the balance between price, reliability, and the specific services offered. Comparing quotes and services allows for informed decision-making, ensuring a smooth and efficient moving experience.
Remember, the best 'cheap' man with a van service might not be the one with the lowest price, but the one that offers the best value for your specific moving requirements.

Hit Man
Director Richard Linklater Stars Glen Powell, Adria Arjona, Retta USA 2023 Language English 1hr 53mins Colour
A load more fun than your average Nietzsche-quoting movie
There’s a bunch of people in the media who reckon Glen Powell is on the verge of proper movie stardom. I learned long ago that I have no talent for picking winners, so I won’t offer an opinion on that, but he’s certainly co-written himself a blinder of a role here.
Gary Johnson (Powell) is a geeky lecturer in philosophy and psychology in New Orleans. As his students point out in the opening scene, there’s a huge gap between his full-throttle philosophical positions and his meek lifestyle.
But Gary has an improbable side hustle (and, as it happens, there was a real Gary Johnson who did both these jobs.) He helps the police with stings on people who are trying to hire a hit man. Initially, he’s one of the crew listening in in the van, but then there’s an an emergency and he gets ‘promoted’ to the person playing the killer for hire. And, to everyone’s surprise, it turns out he has a flair for acting and improv.
For a guy currently best known for appearing in Top Gun: Maverick, the chance to go full Peter Sellers and do a wild variety of looks and accents must have been pretty irresistible. Of course, that can be a recipe for something truly terrible but, fortunately, Powell is very good and very funny in these scenes.
One of the tricky bits for a movie like this is settling down from a series of entertaining set pieces into a main plot that has to keep us interested. So often, the need to tell a conventional story makes everything very plodding. I won’t spoil what happens in this one but Richard Linklater manages the transition smoothly, aided by the chemistry between Powell and Adria Arjona.
Beyond that, nailing the tone in a crime comedy is something that trips up filmmakers all the time. Is it OK to be silly when murder is a possibility? How do you balance a feeling of peril with good jokes? When is something dark comedy and when is it just sadistic? The post-Tarantino 1990s, in particular, were rife with films that got that balance horribly wrong and ended up both glib and nasty.
Linklater has made some of my favourite movies, but he likes to try a lot of things and doesn’t always succeed. His last three films are generally considered to be not up to scratch. The two I’ve seen have been disappointing but in very different ways.
With Hit Man, though, he’s got it absolutely right: it’s the good kind of daft but with some interesting ideas being discussed, the casting is great (from Retta and Sanjay Rao as Gary’s police colleagues to all people trying to hire a cheap assassin) and it rattles along.
Powell has actually been around for a very long time – he first worked with (his fellow Texan) Richard Linklater way back in 2006* – but if his time in the spotlight has come, this film makes an extremely good case for him.
*I first remember him from Linklater’s 2016 movie Everybody Wants Some!!, but the first thing I would have seen him on screen in was 2005’s The Wendell Baker Story. That film – which I think was unfairly dismissed – was made by the Wilson brothers, and Powell certainly has a touch of both Owen and Luke in Hit Man.
I saw Hit Man at the BFI London Film Festival 2023

Music Monday: Hitlist of the Week!
Here is the list of top Songs of the week. WhatsOn music editor Adam Humphries has come up with a new hit list for the week. Add these songs to your playlist and get grooving! New boundary-pushing Kety Fusco harp single - '2072' out today! Released ahead of her upcoming performances at the Royal alcohol in London Italian harpist Kety Fusco. She has released her new single 2072, and it's got something of a dark atmosphere about it. A classically trained harpest Katie is no stranger to experimentation on the harp as well as her music. In many ways she's not that far off Nigel Kennedy When it comes to experimentation via classical instruments https://open.spotify.com/track/7mLkfqcfNB2YZ3elBrPnRm?si=0PmzAswuT6S7ev8Kib1pSA As a song, 2072, isn't that long but it definitely makes something of an impact straight from the go. For the moment you listen you it here in your jaw a dark and yet somber and haunting musical landscape. What makes this even more haunting is that it's saying melody with no vocal meaning. But everything else is left entirely to the imagination https://youtu.be/EBBoZjgYe_Q The irony of the song is that it is in the same sort of musical vein as that of Mike Oldfield and American composer mark snow. Anyone who ever watched the X Files on TV in the 90s will be familiar with his music as he composed the theme tune and this is in a similar meeting of the vein. If anything, you can imagine the genius of what could happen if Mark and Kety ever got together for a collaboration Raye - The Thrill Has Gone The latest single from British singer-songwriter Raye, and has been released from her new album. Thrill Has Gone is about a relationship where the excitement and pleasure have run their course and you question where to go from there. Ironically songs about heartbreak and emotional loss always seem to fair better than love. https://youtu.be/B3LLiysLP7Q Everytime i hear Raye's voice I am instantly reminded of how amazing her voice is! And that she just emits individuality at every moment. Something that I cannot help but notice is how much she's in the same musical vein as the late great Amy Winehouse. The utterly sensational voice carries lots of emotion Pep & Rash - Rumours Released back in 2015 by Dutch duo Jesse Van de Ketterji and Rachid El Uarichi who together form Pep and Rash. The song echoes classic house and beats which are equally as addictive to the ear. Even though it was released as a single over 6 years ago it sounds as though it could just as easily have come out 6 months ago. Providing you can get the composition of the music just right you can make something sound completely timeless. The vocals in this song are deep and have a thickening effect on the music. https://youtu.be/Cif8IcBwoTk Never before has there ever been such a near thing of 'it does what it says on the tin' when it comes to the titles. Lyrically, everything is sung from the male perspective and is about a man supposedly lusting for a woman who's rumored to be available and desires nothing more than a cheap fling Paradis - Toi Et Moi Made by French duo Simon Mény and Pierre Rousseau who made Paradis. Toi Et Moi was released surprisingly not all that long ago back in 2016. When it comes to France never let it be. And said that they don't know how to make great artists or music. Toi Et Moi is a nod back to classic French house music and dance culture. What's so good about it is the timeless appeal to it. And that if played it again in 5 years’ time it'd still fit the current music trends. https://youtu.be/5H4ekRWiW6U Now when it comes to French songs about love and romance this is where they seem to have nailed it spot on. This is the same country that gave us Daft Punk and Vanessa Paradis, need I say anymore? Toi Et Moi is a soft yet slightly subtle song about a young man who has strong feelings for a young woman. And yet does question the feelings themself Read the full article

A list for London
London is big
London long journeys, its not very chic
English strikes and beanie hipsters
Everyones a yopro
Too Cute, quaint, everywhere queuing
Oat milk obsessors,
£3.30 Americanos
planning ahead and please and thank yous.
People I know, in pubs, they all speak English
Its a very capitalist Christmas
A land of jolly alcoholics and gluten intolerance
Ominously gaining territory across pub tables, the air filled with the nauseating smell of cinnamon and gravy
Then there are crisps and meal deals
17 £ tobacco with an infertile man
Old friends and new networking connections
Exes with cats in Angel and exes with vans in Kingston and people I won’t know long enough to count.
Hinge dates and Oxford graduates
Old and new
Cheap and gentrified
Gails, docs and purposefully repurposed trainers
Free metro newspaper and tapping in for the tube
Northern line: hot
The overground: delayed
On the Jubilee someone called me a cunt
Ah sorry, excuse me, so sorry, I think we may have swapped Uniclo puffers.
