It is a fact that the best remedy for a scumble hangover is a hair of the dog
It is a fact that the best remedy for a scumble hangover is a hair of the dog, although it should more accurately be called a tooth of the shark or possibly a tread of the bulldozer.
But Mort merely went on pointing and said, in a trembling voice, 'Can't you see it? It's coming through the wall! It's coming right through the wall!'
'A lot of things come through the wall after your first drink of scumble. Green hairy things, usually.'
'It's the mist! Can't you hear it sizzling?'
'A sizzling mist, is it?' The landlord looked at the wall, which was quite empty and unmysterious except for a few cobwebs. The urgency in Mort's voice unsettled him. He would have preferred the normal scaly monsters. A man knew where he stood with them.
'It's coming right across the room! Can't you feel it?'
The customers looked at one another. Mort was making them uneasy. One or two of them admitted later that they did feel something, rather like an icy tingle, but it could have been indigestion.
Mort backed away, and then gripped the bar.?The Nike Air Huarache nike">http://www.free-runs.com/womens-nike-free-womens-nike-free-run-3-c-6_27.html">nike free run 3 Basketball 2012 becomes the first court kicks to offer this level of 'natural' feel, this application of one of the original colorways support for the old saying about things changing while they stay the same.. He shivered for a moment.
'Look,' said the landlord, 'a joke's a joke, but -'
'You had a green shirt on before!'
The landlord looked down. There was an edge of terror in his voice.
'Before what?' he quavered. To his astonishment, and before his hand could complete its surreptitious journey towards the blackthorn stick, Mort lunged across the bar and grabbed him by the apron.
'You've got a green shirt, haven't you?' he said. 'I saw it, it had little yellow buttons!'
'Well, yes. I've got two shirts.' The landlord tried to draw himself up a little. 'I'm a man of means,' he added.

He didn't want to know how Mort knew about the buttons.
Mort let him go and spun round.
'They're all sitting in different places! Where's the man who was sitting by the fire? It's all changed!'
He ran out through the door and there was a muffled cry from outside. He dashed back, wild-eyed, and confronted the horrified crowd.
'Who changed the sign? Someone changed the sign!'
The landlord nervously ran his tongue across his lips.
'After the old king died, you mean?' he said.
Mort's look chilled him, the boy's eyes were two black pools of terror.
'It's the name I mean!'
'We've - it's always been the same name,' said the man, looking desperately at his customers for support. 'Isn't that so, lads? The Duke's Head.'
There was a murmured chorus of agreement.

Then he turned and ran outside again.
The listeners heard hoof beats in the yard, which grew fainter and then disappeared entirely, just as though a horse had left the face of the earth.
There was no sound inside the inn. Men tried to avoid one another's gaze. No one wanted to be the first to admit to seeing what he thought he had just seen.
So it was left to the landlord to walk unsteadily across the room and reach out and run his fingers across the familiar, reassuring wooden surface of the door. It was solid, unbroken, everything a door should be.
Everyone had seen Mort run through it three times. He just hadn't opened it.
