I used to walk past there all the time in the 1970s, though I had no idea it was a weird religious community of eccentric English ladies (and a few men) who owned just about every property in Albany Road. The Garden of Eden, behind numbers 12 to 18, always looked absolutely lovely though

“The Ark”, 18 Albany Road, was where they kept a bedroom prepared for Jesus to sleep in when He returned. They changed the bed linen every week so it would always be ready, for we know not the hour of His Coming

There's some scouse actor person on DID this morning.

I didn't like any of his music choices, plus I've never heard of the fecker.

He seems to have hit the news.

I think I saw in with something with Martin Shaw. I think he plays some difficult roles that not many actors would want to be associated with.

“The Ark” was one of their terms for Joanna Southcott’s Box of Prophecies. They believed that the Bishops of the Church of England needed to come together to open the box and examine the prophecies sealed therein: “Crime and Banditry, Distress and Perplexity will increase until the Bishops open Joanna Southcott’s Box”, as they put it in their long-running and extensive advertising campaign. They bought a large house on the next road in which this meeting could take place, though sadly the bishops refused to come

The house is now the Panacea Museum, dedicated to preserving the history of the Society.

Looked into the Joanna Southcott thing a few years ago. Can't remember the details now, didn't they open the box and find a packet of wine gums or something?

PS Just had a look at Wikipedia, was lottery ticket and a horse pistol, not a packet of wine gums. If that was not the real box, they need to find the real one, they certainly need to open it soon to save us all from... everything.

The only other thing that may save us is King Arthur. If Germy Carbuncle is the next PM, somebody up North please go to Alderley Edge and give him a shout.
