Between SASS and geocaching I guess I have no room to talk.  But still...?

Bog Mummies are made by nature when the bog is just right with cold, deep, stagnant water and tannic acid. Some of these accidental mummies simply fell in while others got there as a result of a sacrifice, a murder, or suicide. Some met a violent end by being beheaded, garroted, bludgeoned or hung.

9 out of 10 bog mummies follow the peat racing season avidly.

Oh, and that's Tollund Man. That's the real deal.

Is that what happens when you spend too much time out in the noon-day sun in England ?

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

You wouldn't have to swim if you had Gollum to show you the way Wink

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin
