<i>In our last episode, Crispin and his friends were hurtling through the Earth's atmorsphere wrestling with the controls of their spaceship.
A brave effort to quote Jules Verne did not help them from crashing into Hackney Marshes, which is where our story now continues....</i>



"Wo is me, I am trying to pull away the wreckage to rescue Shrodinger's cat, but my flippers are too small" said Alfred,

Crispin was quick to reassure his old friend.

"Fear not, my 2ft tall friend your efforts are most gallant, as we dig maybe you can help keep our spirits gallant by quoting Dante"

"That I can do well, 'Twas at the time when Juno was enraged,
For Semele, against the Theban blood,
As she already more than once had shown,
So reft of reason Athamas became,
That, seeing his own wife with children twain
Walking encumbered upon either hand,
He cried: "Spread out the nets, that I may take!"

Crispin heartily joined in unison with Alfred;

"The lioness and her whelps upon the passage;"

And With their spirits raised it wasn’t long till they found Shrodingers Cat.

"The Crash did kill me, but fate be it was the dead me, so the dead me is now dead and the live me is still live! This does though create a worrying perplex parralex, we must find some scales !"

"I have read that the queen has some scales, the very finest in London " Said Alfred

Cripsin was quick to agree,

"I have heard the very same news my learned friend, Then Come! all of us will head to London to see the Queen, but first May I suggest we do what all good Englishman do and pillage the village of Hackney and shoot their tigers!"

"Hoorah" Said Shrodingers Cat

"Hoorah Indeed " Said Alfred.
