The End of The Edge of England's Sword

Iain Murray and crew have decided to sheathe England's Sword. IIRC, he once got fired because of this blog. He also closed up shop on the very day of the London bombings, so that testifies to some pretty terminal boredom with this blog. Enjoyed it while it lasted, though. He says he's not done blogging, so here's hoping his next project is of more lasting interest to him.

UPDATE: I corrected the url in the link. Added it, really, since I didn't put it in there the first time >:^/

The Charlock's (in the) Shade

Well, Enoch Soames, the literary blogger, is back in the hammock for the rest of the month. As protracted as his absence was earlier this year, he's got quite some cheek to slack off the free ice cream so soon.
