The poem was published in the last edition of TOOFIF, thanks to David Lloyd.

[The Equalizer]

Edward Bulwer-Lytton once lived at Craven Cottage and he was a poet.

Rumour has it that Lord Byron also stayed there.

I once wrote a little ditty to celebrate are European adventure.

This is really very good.


I was but a twinkle in my father's eye during this era but the poem is really evocative, you can almost feel yourself being there.

Edward Bulwer-Lytton once lived at Craven Cottage and he was a poet.

Bulwer-Lytton was such a bombastic writer that there exists an annual contest to create the worst possible beginning for a novel. The winner gets the Bulwer-Lytton Prize.

B-L is famous for beginning one of his novels "It was a dark and stormy night."
