Little Witchingham moved down the valley to escape the poor wretches whose weeping sores and smelly bodies had become a tad too much.
They made off with all the mead, loads of capons, the last remaining nubile virgins (whose petticoats were made of hemp and sackcloth), a couple of lyres and a mouse to establish their new community.
Glenda Funbags established a new Inn and they all got leathered and did a twirly dance around a descendant of Edward Woodward who was ensnared in a huge wicker
