    The man said Jack was mad, no wonder Jack got angry.

    That at least would be giving substance to one of Pierre's threads.

    fly in the ointment

    Hello Karl. Perhaps those dots are merely fly defecations?

    Cheers.

    I admit to being unable to connect the dots, here...

    No. What did he say.

    As Whitehead was a Liberal, a Radical and a philanthropist he probably mentioned the contrast between the way Mary and her fellow tenants lived and the costly show of the Lord Mayor's Show when he spoke to the Press. He did participate in that show, mind you, but he cut down on a lot of its sideshow atmosphere.

    Mary Kelly had to die because Jack was feeling homicidal at the time and had a lot of time on his hands. He could go home afterwards and relax as the Lord Mayor's Show was a public holiday.

    I love the Lord Mayor's Coach but why is it being pulled by draught horses? They are beautiful animals but it doesn't look very elegant.
