Yes, BigJohn's story about The Doom That Came to Nutwood is now on this website;

Fans of H P Lovecraft and Rupert Bear may care to look at it ....

Excellent crossover.

Who was threatening us with Winnie the Pooh and Chthulhu too ? I'm dying to do the sequel. I've already left Chomsky in the Hundred Acre Wood, and created a dastardly plot involving Christopher Robin - as - adult.

Go on then - you can't expect us to wait after that... Nutwood Doom definitely the goods

If the English language made any sense, a catastrophe would be an apostrophe with fur.

Tomorrow, maybe. Just keeping up with the fforum has been taking up most of the time that I've been able to spend at the computer recently, but tomorrow I'm going in to work (officially to oversee the collection of some unwanted chemicals for proper disposal) despite this being theoretically during my Summer holidays (OK, so I should have got the chemicals sorted out a few weeks ago...) and I'll be able to use one of the computers there for as long as necessary.

Incidentally, 'Winnie the Pooh, and Cthulhu too!" isn't an actual story... It's more of a (fairly short) look at the combination by an imagined "expert" of some kind (probably a scholar of the Mythos, maybe an anthropologist).

I'm heading off to Nutwoood now...

I'm back now from Nutwood,
And deeply shocked!
Let that Bear's new home
Be firmly locked!
