Our mission

Are you that special person who - weary from trudging the endless superhighways - just longs to camp next to a glorious oasis of the mind? Do you desire to explore new frontiers, splash in shared ideas, fill your belly with the refreshing fruits of inspiration, and bask in the gentle rays of fond reflection?

Well, you can fuck right off. This, my friends, is not that place. This place is... The ShadowLands.

David Niven

Passing away on 29 July 1983 was English actor David Niven.

Niven was also a WWII veteran and an entertaining writer. If memory serves correctly, his autobiography described an early screen test where, unsure of what to say, he recited a verse:

There was a young man from Leeds
Who swallowed a packet of seeds
Great shoots of grass
Grew out of his arse
And his cock was covered in weeds.
