What? It scans. First, the basics. Inverness is cold. Bloody freezing, in fact, when the wind’s blowing, but it’s OK, because the houses are built for it, and have heating. At least, that’s what we thought. Turns out that this…

Employability in the nick of time, Badger exodus, and the train to Morningtown
