Douse the witch! Douse the witch!

 Prestonpans is, belatedly, pardoning 81 witches (and their cats) killed at the height of Scotland's witch hunt craze. Emily's friend Lou helped draw up the list of crones to be forgiven.

Hallowe'en will now include Witches Remembrance Day to commemorate the events.

Footage

 Today's Deputised Experts post is a filler. I've taken one of the pictures I did for a background and included some information about the building I put together for a piece of coursework.

Gala

 Of course, if he'd been found guilty of doctoring something by Duchamp rather than Dali, this guy couldn't have been found guilty because it would have been a totally Dada thing to do.
