The House of SlimeThere is(With apologies to The Animals)
a house
in Milton Street.
They call
the House of Slime.
And it's been
the subject
of many a tale,
in the car pool
driving by.
Ffffaa fark sake! What is going on at number xx Milton Street? We don't know, but that hasn't stopped us having a few theories over the years.
It all started when mapguy came to work at The Department. Others had driven by for ages and had not noticed, but mapguy did. Something odd in the window of one of the houses on Milton Street. Something slimey and strangely disconcerting, yet reassuring in its reliability. Check this out.
Can you see them? No?
Look a closer look.
Yep. Those are ceramic snails. They face the same way all the time, but they are removed at night and put back again sometime after 8am each morning. Weekend's no exception.
What the bjesus is that about? We have theories alright.
- It's a sign to the householder's lover that their spouse is away.
- It's a sign to say the latest batch of crack is available.
- The householder likes snails.
- The householder is madder than Mad Jack McMad, winner of last year's Mr Madman Competition.
- None of the above.
