Billy Weeks | Folklore: Jack the Ripper (54* d) | RE: Folklore: Jack the Ripper | 16 Feb 06 |
Forgive me if I drift, but this stuff about old pubs like the Prospect of Whitby having survived the Great Fire verges on the pointless. London was quite small in 1666 and the Prospect was out in what was then a suburb. The fire came nowhere near it. So sure,it survived,as indeed we have all survived a variety of nasty events that we were far from at the time they happened. I escaped Jack the Ripper. But I still can't tell you who he was. |
