It’s Tuesday. Sigh. Whilst you’ve been away on your Bank Holiday getaway, sat in a sweltering car parked on a motorway somewhere, sad stay-at-home social inadeqates such as myself have been here, still on the web. You know, in that way in which people who don’t have a life tend to do. Never mind.

My Equus, my beast of possession, my trusted means of hunting down my obsessions.
