Folklore meets a very current sports betting scandal
A Knightsbridge Diary
Researched an old London legend this morning, retold so many times nobody agrees on the original version anymore, then read coverage of the Sydney Sweeney Novig advert, which is well on its way to becoming its own kind of modern myth.
Made notes linking the two, old folklore and new controversy. The city, it turns out, has always needed a story to argue about.
Full coverage at The London Prats report on the scandal. More entries at Paige Shiver on The London Prat.
