Are you certain it was actually boiling (real bubbles surfacing to the top), or were you using the phrase "boiling cauldron" because we usually throw the 2 words together? And it seems far-fetched to ask this, but if it was boiling, was there a heat source?
I'm trying to narrow this down to physical or meta and suspecting the latter. |

me too. Boiling cauldron sounds suspiciously implausible. A cauldron in the first place... I mean, where do you even get a cauldron... was it sat directly on embers or hoisted over a flame?

Y'know, y'all, if it were a plausible or accountable memory, it wouldn't have been worth relating.
If a Texas businessman did walk into any store in England, by the way, he probably would take care to have all the accoutrements. We Texans feel a certain responsibility in these matters. It's true that it's awkward lugging the office around.
And yes, Texas businessmen do wear Stetsons with their suits if they wear a hat at all and may well have boots instead of dress shoes, because dress shoes are just uncomfortable and unnatural and besides, depending what business you're in, you might have to go onto a stock lot or a mineral site. |

aye agreed without it being worthy of the weird badge it wouldn't be here... that said, this cauldron is the part that scuppered the whole yarn. I was happily lapping up the rest. It's requires too many other elements... where abouts was it? what was the layout of this vision?
this cauldron is in danger of turning the whole tale into a crock |

| If you look at their profiles, the two posters who initially engaged with Madseller, Katinka and Plusky last logged in to FTMB on the 17th of May and the 30th of July respectively. Yet their posts are dated the 9th of August. How does that work? |

I also once saw a "witch". Of course I was already influenced by the strange landscape and therefore receptive to any hint of weirdness. It's the 8th row from the top:

| I really get a kick out of such assumptions as she had been disturbed from meditation or 'spell weaving'. It's quite the leap isn't it? Much more attractive than the mundane |

I saw a witch!
Where?
There on the stair!
Where on the stair?
Right there!
A little witch with clogs on!
Well, I declare!
Going clip-clippety-clop on the stair! |

A witch lived in a windmill in old Amsterdam
A windmill with a witch in and she wasn't bitchin'
She sang every morning, "How lucky I am!"
Till they rolled her down the hillside in a spiked barrel.
I'm still working on the last bit.  |

That's great stuff. I have heard about Lüneburg Heath somewhere in literature and the name suggested something haunted. I wanted to expand the photos to a higher resolution.  |
