Bloody hell. It worked!

Uhm, I'll try put some more up now.

This is the crypt at Hythe church. They've 2,000 skulls and 8,000 femurs. Around 4,000 people, men, women, and children. It's the largest collection in the UK . . .

The "curator" told us a story. He forgot the key to the crypt one morning, and a family was awaiting admission (a live family). He told their young lad to put his eye to the keyhole and keep a watch on the bones and skulls, telling him, "They get up and run about when I'm not there. So just you keep an eye on them." When the bloke got back, the kid was there still, avidly watching through the keyhole, and happily reported they didn't move while the fella had been fetching the key. But he did give the bones a wide berth once inside.
