Strangeness
comes in many forms, my ancient, pagoda-silhouetted university lecturer told me
and the rest of my class. Well, I say university lecturer, he was actually a
gasman. And I say class, but it was actually just me and three skeletons glued
to my head. And I say talking, but he was actually communicating via a series
of gestures, timed lights and tearful writhing.
Anyway, where was I?
Oh yeah, I remember: so there I was, plunging through
Earth’s atmosphere with only forty-five seconds left before the best
haberdashery in town closed for the day…
