A return to the Edwardian Age, with some new characters and a different kind of investigation.
Session 00 - Why Do We Always Have a Character Called John?:
Session 01 - Secluded Ladder: We do our best to offend everybody, but in spite of our success we stumble over what may be a Sinister Plot. Or a public utility.
Session 02 - The Dance of the Seven Bodices: Further investigation, and desperate plot-evasion, leads to an embarrassing interview (especially for the GM).
Session 03 - The Tagliatelle Lectures: It’s 1910. Health and Safety is just an industrialist’s bad dream after eating too much cheese. So why is this office so lacking in lethal things?
Session 04 - A Public Health Crisis: We start to look further into Johnny Martian (disclaimer, may not actually be a Martian), and unearth some disturbing possibilities.
Session 05 - Tickling Him With Wires: Our research bears fruit. Strange, disturbing fruit. Fortunately we have an infeasibly large revolver.
Session 06 - Strap Him On and Keep Going: We know what to do (ish). We know where to do it (more ish). Now we just have to get there (very ish indeed).
Hangouts works better than appear.in (which we found fine with two, not great with three); Skype is horrible spyware and has issues with Linux; roll20 has vast amounts of features we’d never use.
Session 01 - Secluded Ladder: We do our best to offend everybody, but in spite of our success we stumble over what may be a Sinister Plot. Or a public utility.
Marginally relevant to last night’s session: Humber produced motorcars in the late 1890s, with their first conventional four-wheeler appearing in 1901.
Session 02 - The Dance of the Seven Bodices: Further investigation, and desperate plot-evasion, leads to an embarrassing interview (especially for the GM).
For Carl Hiaasen novels I recommend Tourist Season, Skin Tight, Double Whammy and Skinny Dip.
A few years back I was having trouble relaxing on long flights and I bought Skin Tight three times in paperback during layovers because I was nervous about the next flight and knew it was a good read.
Session 03 - The Tagliatelle Lectures: It’s 1910. Health and Safety is just an industrialist’s bad dream after eating too much cheese. So why is this office so lacking in lethal things?

May I’m say I’m totally jazzed for this? Am I using the vernacular correctly? I’m well jazzed, innit though.
Always happy for more FF, and the title is intriguing. Let’s hope it refers to a man falling off his horse called Grace and breaking his bottom bone, preventing oppression for several weeks and forcing him to concede the equality of women in all tasks. He can shove his side saddle up his arse.
