I came across this statue in Tallinn. It can only be a monument to a MUD player. I’m not sure who it is. The brass plate said it was someone called George. But to me it looks like Kiwi in his early days. But whoever it is, you can see he’s got it all wrong. He may have acquired the longsword. He may have got the pony on the Island in the optimistic hope it will get him back to the main land quickly. And he may have persuaded a kind Wiz to lend him a decent suit of plate armour. But it will all end in tears. That dragon is beginning to look angry and any second now will HAWUMPH. And it will be ‘Good Night Vienna’ all over again.

What IS that thing on his head?! For a second I thought it might be the fez, then perhaps his helmet. I see the horse is wearing one of the feathers. Maybe those help protect against the dragon...

a case of mistaken identity Royston - I think thats more likely Crazydimnd - that looks more like his approach
and i think the pony is wearing the horse brass

I don't know what that thing is sticking up at the front but for the rest of it, it looks like he's wearing the nightcap.

Sorry - I thought it looked like you. Certainly not your style. Maybe it is Crowley trying a new approach.

Are we sure that's not a two-handed sword?
spoiler - the Dragon wins because someone inadvertently closed the window.

If it's me, it's not the dragon, it's the wyvern, and I'm dying of stupidity.
