Thanks for your research Dee - great insight; still disturbing me.

I was fascinated by the alphabet book but I do think you'd have to be careful - Rhoda consumed by fire was definitely unsettling but I loved Neville who died of ennui. Of course you couldn't mention Fanny now - let alone the leech!!!
The Gashlycrumb tinies have the antidote to Mary Poppins don't they?

Really interesting bit about humourism, Dee. Always at the ready with more info😁🙌🏼👏🏼😁

Yes, similar to Bunny Suicides for sure, which you introduced a while back! All quite the opposite of Mary Poppins😂

I saw it - I saw it!!!!!!

We were walking down the street we were staying on in Budapest, passing by on the other side of the road when I noticed the top part of the picture peering above some run-down walls; hey, I thought - I recognise that. It's not quite as easy to see fully as you might expect from the road, but it was so exciting to find it, especially as it was accidental!!!

Awesome, Mz MC! That’s just brilliant! It makes me silly happy you saw it! What did you think of it in real life?

It actually looked as I expected it to and the pictures we've got on the harbour depict it well but it isn't as clearly visible as you might think, so I think perhaps a lot of people might actually walk past it without realising. Strange that no matter how good a picture is it's always different when you see something for real although our pictures are awesome too. :72:

It is really beautiful - such a clever juxtaposition of the three of them and such sweeping and dramatic lines!!!! :x

It's great, isn't it? I think we should explore this chap a little more. I'm gonna start a thread for him.

I like that one better than most of her others.

She does some good dogs too.

Ha! I concluded the same, Mz Moonchime, having had a look at her other work. The jazz band stands out. But the first dog pic you've posted is also fun!
