There was music auto-playing on all pages when I last visited (some time
ago). You can(!) click to play music on the "music/wisdom" page. I don't know
why it's not automatically playing now, but it's probably for the best.

You might also like the poem to the Queen Mum on that page...

I think it would be quicker to learn a bit of HTML and CSS... but each
to their own.

Well, I've seen far worse.

But I find this bizarrely fascinating. I wonder, what the person behind
all of this is like. I mean, publicly posting proof of one's virginity
is unusual, isn't it?!

It doesn't play on all pages in either Firefox or Safari. Maybe somebody
at N.I.N has included a taste filter?

Wowser!

My local West Indian chemist is a Queen Mumfreak too. Charming people.
Maybe Sarah Jane is real? But I prefer to think that she's pure
invention. It would raise my opinion of humanity.

My favourite bit

"Sarah Jane met Sean who lived at Dilton Marsh when she worked for a
bank and he was a bank executive. They were very fond of each other but
at the time she owned a St Bernard and a Samoyed dog and he owned a cat.
Sarah was worried they would fight and so she did not marry him. He has
never slandered her."
