Big rifle shotgun, extra ‘packaging’ and a fine hat.
But nothing seemed to work.
“Shun him in the streets of the town, you must shun him in the shop, you must shun him in the fairgreen and in the marketplace, and even in the place of worship, by leaving him alone, by putting him in a moral Coventry, by isolating him from the rest of his country as if he were the leper of old, you must show your detestation of the crime he has committed”.

“In case you’re feeling the need for a break from footie-packed pubs… We’ll have the best of Wallace & Gromit on the big screen after sunset in Fitzwilliam Square [Dublin] tonight. We’re showing The Wrong Trousers (1993) & A Close Shave (1995), so of course we’ll have prizes for the ‘wrongest’ trousers and ‘best’ beards in the park…”

Bounce Below is a labyrinthine playground in a slate quarry cavern in the Welsh mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog: three huge trampolines suspended up to 25 metres above the cavern floor, surrounded by walls of netting, connected by walkways and illuminated by a green, pink and purple light display.
Sean Taylor of Zip World sez:
“We got the idea when my business partner saw this done in woods in France but this has never been done in a cavern, this really is a world first in Wales. It’s a one hour activity where customers get dressed up in a cotton overall and given a helmet, they then jump on a train and travel inside the mountain.”
Dude, you had us at ‘cotton overall’..
