Without what?

The top photograph is of St. Michael's Without. St. Michael's Without is a historic church near Bath's city centre. It is so named because it lay outside of the city walls, as opposed to the other St. Michael's that was within the city walls.

Clever, huh?

The bottom two photographs are not of the city wall, but of the late 19th century walls that surround our house. Someone, whilst Maurene and I were teaching a class, decided to hit the wall with their automobile or lorry (the neighbours are betting it was a lorry.) You might know a lorry by its more familiar American name -semi. Whatever caused the damage, the culprit got away with only a small amount of paint and some plastic left behind as evidence. The Bath police will be glad to file a report as soon as I come 'down to the station'. Socialist police forces can't afford the petrol to come out and file a proper report. Hence my crime scene photographs.

Anyway, the appropriate church authorities have been informed and I am assured that a 'wall man' will be on the task straightaway.

I hope you get the connection between St. Michael's and our predicament. If not, I am very sorry (for you.)
