Dudley care home bosses Graham and Lyn Walker jailed for fake £175k will

The former Dudley care home owners tried to steal a late resident's fortune using a forged will.

Dudley Bug Ball takes over No.4 Events Hall February 21st-22nd. RPGs, miniatures, board games and traders who've been waiting all year to meet your credit card. Under 12s and carers go free. #DudleyBugBall #TTRPG #Wargaming #BoardGames #Miniatures #Dudley #boardgames http://l.d20.ninja/ycxkd8b2

I read that it was set on a council estate in #Wolverhampton in the 1990s, and I was expecting #HowToBuildAGirl (2019) to be a lot darker than it turned out to be.

I initially thought that the Wolverhampton accent wasn't much cop; until I read that the actor was a 20-something American, and flip-flopped to being impressed at how good it was compared to some Americans's attempts at U.K. accents.

The people who did the credits tried hard, but typewriters didn't have distinct em-dashes and hyphens at different heights, nor mid-dots. Retroactive #Unicode showed through a bit. (-:

But the craziest part of the credits is that this is the first time that I've ever seen #Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council acknowledged in a movie's credits.

Amusing too to see that the credits could only use real names for the dead people on the wall, and 'Snow Pixie' is not dead.

#20252025Challenge
Today Momma Darlo, Uncle Chris and I were at the Merry Hill Centre, and bumped into Children In Need's Pudsey Bear collecting at Greggs. They took a photo with him, so I thought I'd draw that.

I am unsurprised by the fact that there's no hashtag for #camping in #Wolverhampton.

All of the campers head for either #Perton or #Dudley. #BrierleyHill for the upscale campers.

Obviously.

Of course tourists don't know about these off-the-beaten-track camp grounds.

#OTD in Tudor history, 21 Oct 1554, John Dudley, 2nd Earl of Warwick, died at Penshurst—just days after release from the Tower.

John Dudley, 2nd Earl of Warwick - The Tudor Society

On this day in Tudor history, 21st October 1554, John Dudley, 2nd Earl of Warwick, died at Penshurst in Kent, the home of his brother-in-law, where he was under house arrest. Warwick had only just been released from the Tower of London. He was the son of John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland, and brother of Guildford Dudley, both of whom were executed for their parts in the succession crisis of 1553, which saw Guildford's wife, Lady Jane Grey, becoming queen for thirteen days. Find out more about Warwick, whose rise had seem assured until that July...
