"I came upon the wrecked Handling Machine halfway to St Johns Wood station".
The mansions are all still there and this is about half way, so a good contender for the building Wells meant.
Wonder if the occupants know of such things?
Any SF fan will have a subject they can be borderline obsessive over. Not for me the Doctor Who's, the Star Warses and all the rest of it. For me its always been The War Of The Worlds, from the rather dodgy record adaptation of the mid 60's, through being scared witless by the Pal film, the word perfect recital of the Jeff Wayne album and the toleration of the many comic, film and prose adaptations. So, join me in a prolonged amble through my thoughts on this most classic of SF tales.
