In the Downs

Professor Swindlehurst's laboratory appears to be no longer. In its stead we have the dwelling of M. Chronos Ghanduhar. M. Ghanduhar's typist appears to reside in Deutschland, as the profile is entirely auf Deutsch.

I hope it does not sound too unneighborly of me to suggest that the residence is not entirely harmonious with the rest of the buildings. I note that this has been something of a recurring theme in the Downs. Pardon me while I sigh.

Fortunately, the Professor's airship is still moored above the Downs, so the redoubtable gentleman has not left us entirely.

I also purchased a pennyfarthing from Mr. Alastair Whybrow, though I have no suitable riding clothing. Nor do I have any idea how to ride a bicycle - airship, yes; bicycle, no - or even how to mount the beast. My next dispatch may be from the infirmary.
