Profile Information

Introduction
Mad , bald and dangerous to know . Long term interest in late Victorian period - in particular the 1890s literary scene . Perhaps , considering my demographic , more neo- victorian than Steampunk , but enjoy dressing the part etc. Visits to nearby Ballarat include stays at the gold rush era 'Craigs' , site of a visit by the crew of the Civil War raider ' Shenandoah' c. 1865 . HEALTH WARNING - THE PROFESSOR IS A SCEPTIC WITH A SENSE OF HUMOUR AND ANY CONTRIBUTION HE MAY MAKE TO FORUMS SHOULD BE IGNORED ! The title ' Professor ' was granted ( 1908 ) by Prince Hapnick of Carpania - as recorded in the Blake Edwards documentary ' The Great Race ' 1965.

Dear Professor,

    Yes, indeed, I am in fine feather and continuing to enjoy Steampunk activities.   I've recently been out of town quiet a bit and then with the change in the season find myself hacking away with a machete at the jungle growth that was once my garden!  

     Thank you for your concern.   I do intend to peruse the goings-on of the Empire again now that things are settling down.  

Cheerio

Just stopping by to say hello dear Prof and hope that all is well with you.  Much respect to your continual, unwaivering stance on being a true gentleman through unwarranted aspects of a unjustified connection. You are indeed a rare and wonderful asset to the Empire and I am truly honored to have you as a friend.

Wow. That must have been scary. She lived right near the Buck's row gate? That's where they found Catherine Eddows.
