    "Good God, Helmes," I cried, unable to contain myself. "But d'you mean to say they deliberately, ritually defile the homely inglenook?"

    Tweeting of inglenook by hook or by crook; I'm going to play there with a rook, castling in. Take a look, mate - check.

    Slightly different from the inglenook... "fireplace" is "camino" in Italian. But "camino" is a meaning of "road" in Spanish. #artwiculate

    Consider how the victim's face was so deliberately rolled in the ashes scattered on the floor of the inglenook. Therein lies the key.

    So, Caruthers, what shall you call this when you write it up, pray? The Inglenook Incident? Or the Curious Cult of the Inglenook, perchance!

    And so, with great bonhomie and absolutely no homoerotic undertone, Helmse and I, sitting in the inglenook, shared a claret before retiring.
