Something momentous...

I don't know what, but something momentous has happened somewhere recently. It may be that we will never know, for the event has caused reality to slip a groove and we are, for the time being at least, in a slightly different continuum to that we inhabited yesterday.

I am indebted to the Lord of All String for digging up this snippet, which outlines a proposal to recommence airship production in Hertfordshire.

It is a known fact1 that airships only appear at times of great stress to reality, presaging or reacting to great disturbances in the fabric of space and time (viz the 1930s: full of airships and sandwiched neatly in the advertising break between parts one and two of the World War2.

I have posted this here as the redoubtable [livejournal.com profile] mr_h_r_hughes locks his journal. I would be grateful for any reports from around the world that may help me pin down the reason for the reappearance of the airship.

1Also an un-provably known fact, so don't ask me to prove it.

2There are small airships that appear spontaneously to witness the distortion of reality at major sporting events too, when something completely unlikely happens, such as Cleveland making the Superbowl, or Chelsea winning the European Cup.

Well it was knocking around a few years ago but the company has supposedly got more funding. The report on the BBC local news this morning actually had film of the prototype so it would seem that they have done at least some work on a prototype. might be worth watching the local news tonight ?
