Fafnir has elephant heads mounted on the wall. Just above the white tiger heads and lion skins. They go well next to his ebony throne raised upon a pile of severed gorilla hands

Extrem pressure and cold, and absence of light. Nature never stops surprising me.

Next thing I'd like to see is non carbon based forms of life.

Yeah, like anywhere south of the river or anyone north of the Watford gap

South East London is a shit hole. Who in their right mind would want to live in New Cross, for example (oh yes please, I'd love to live in Sanford Street, or Trundleys Road - such nice areas.....NOT). The south east is such a hole that they don't even trust the local population with tube stations (they're all overhead).

Archaea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The archaea exploit a much greater variety of sources of energy than eukaryotes: ranging from familiar organic compounds such as sugars, to using ammonia, metal ions or even hydrogen gas as nutrients

something like that maybe?
