Who's this Ripper Historian guy, Edward Stow?

[Lechmere]

No idea

[MrBarnett]

Do we just turn up, tenner in hand?

[pinkmoon]

Ten quid to find out who jack the ripper was what a bargain I wish I had known about this year's ago it would have saved me buying all those books and saved me a fortune!!

[Lechmere]

Yes you just turn up with a tenner in your hand.
As pinkmoon says it is a bargain

[MrBarnett]

Graphics hadn't loaded before I asked my unnecessary question.

If the package is as Pinkmoon suggests, it will be well worth the money.

Ed,

Great tour. Shame about the weather, though (it rained solidly for the whole 2 hours).

Cheers,

Gary.

[Lechmere]

Not only 2 hours.
More deaths were almost claimed - through hypothermia
I don't know whether they would have been chalked down as late victims of Jack the Ripper or of the Tube Disaster.

Ed,

I hope your glamorous assistant didn't catch her death on the damp cobbles of Bucks Row. I enjoyed the tour enormously. The only negative is that I can't get the image of Robert Paul working on the checkout at Sainsbury 's out of my head.
