Eystein The Fart

Of course you'd know all the trivia in existence related to fart jokes :D

Had two instead, both in your honour. (have 6 more days left, expect a dozen-ish in total.)

Got first floor room with balkony so they can't pull an Edward Kelly on us. Phew :)

Nah, actually i found that in the 60 Strangest Royal Epithets link when i looked it up. You Nordics seem to have more than a fair share of those, what's wrong with you people?

Charming! I hope the remainder of your trip is pleasant, and if you partake in any ruckus, do indulge us.

Richard III, the last Plantagenet king of England. 

He was a much maligned man, part of it being Tudor propaganda spiel but playwrights have to make their living too in some way or another.  

Anyhow, today we had the procession of his bones received by Leicester Cathedral, from Leicester Car Park (formerly known as Greyfriars Church). It was an oddly heartwarming affair.  (The current strain of the Saxe-Coburg & Gothas were notable by their absence, funny that.)

His descendant, a Canadian carpenter, made his oak coffin:

I will miss out on the actual burial on Thursday as i'm off in the morgen for a week to the land of beer and defenestration (a much deserved break).

Richard is the first king who earnt a shiny new royal epithet a few centuries posthumously. (And not even a bad one, considering Alfonso The Slobberer, Childeric The Idiot, or Eystein The Fart (< that was an 8th c. king of Norway) and the likes:  http://mentalfloss.com/article/58623/60-historys-strangest-royal-epithets)  

Hail the Car Park King! 

(I have a soft spot for the Plantagenets / Anjous, can't help it :/ )  All together now: 

(^ that was my mum's buddy in times bygone. Dead now.)

That is awesome!

And what is a herzganef? Each time you speak, I learn a new word!

Yiddish for "heart-thief", quite verbatim. I think the english for it would be 'handsome'.  In short, you look good.

Thanks! So you are in Germany if I am not mistaken? Or deep into Ireland? Lots of beer and defenestration going on in both places.

No casualties yet,  might do a round of segway-tipping and snapping those wretched selfie sticks in half and beating the shit out of the owners with the remnants on the Shabes.  Fuckin chinks everywhere taking selfies on segways. Will get Gribley to record it. 

Buying some travel-sized Golems tomorrow, see if i can hitch a 2-for-1 deal (or even 3-for-2, shall it come to that...  :/  )
