Yeah, it's just a pity the authorities tend to be so creepy about holding onto bodies, preventing you from doing creative and useful things with your dead relatives, isn't it?

We're living in a dictatorship, I tell you.

A legend much more interesting than Jack The Ripper

I prefer the Phantom Raspberry Blower.

I prefer the Phantom Raspberry Blower.

Nobody can hold a candle (pardon, considering the thread subject) to The Phantom Flan Flinger!!

I KNOW, isn't it??!!

You'll love the next CycleChat Investigates thread then;

Will Spring Heeled Jack terrorise your family tonight?

Or where did the Halifax Slasher strike?

I prefer the Phantom Raspberry Blower.

Nobody can light a candle (pardon, considering the thread subject) to The Phantom Flan Flinger!!

Both fade into insignificance compared to The Dreaded Batter Pudding Hurler of Bexhill-on-Sea

First case huh..does that make him a trail blazer😂

 

[Drago]

Or where did the Halifax Slasher strike?

Sounds like a northern heavy metal act.

With the amount of alcohol my dad consumes I'm surprised he hasn't gone up in flame's 😲

Sounds like a northern heavy metal act.

Or the bloke that gives the telephone boxes of West Yorkshire their distinctive eyeball burning aroma.

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

So, if an alcoholic is cremated, will they burn with more intensity, or will the alcohol have dissipated by that point? And similarly, if people in a pub get trapped in a fire, will they burn more intensely?

Asking for a friend.

 

[MontyVeda]

I think like the Bermuda triangle... reporting half the facts reveals a complete mystery and that sells books and magazines and TV docs. The truth is mundane and not very profitable.

Sitrep.


According to our survey SHC is definitely real. Clearly the good folk of CycleChat have encountered this many many times themselves.
