The Wunderkammer of the Mild Colonial Boy, Esq., a Reactionary Tory Gentleman, who armed only with a Steampowered Babbage Engine and Pure Intentions, wanders the Time Streams and Aetheric Plane gathering an Eccentric Hodgepodge of Curiousities, Frivolities, Whimsicalities and Nonsense.

Q. Why is your Tumblelog called "My Ear-Trumpet Has Been Struck by Lightning"?

A. Because "My Grandmother's Ear-Trumpet Has Been Struck by Lightning" wouldn't fit in the available space.

The trailer for Michel Hazanavicius’ film “The Artist”.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited about a film. A black and white, silent film set in the Hollywood of the late 20’s - made in 2011. I first heard about this on the BBC’s flagship film programme where they said it had chances of being nominated for best picture at the Oscars. It will open in late January in Germany - if it opens sooner where you live I urge you to go and see it and show your support for a truly courageous film project!
