"These doors are alarmed"

On a set of doors at King's Cross.

Someone should work on calming them back down.
 :dunno:

It's the terror threat. YOu'd be worried, too, if you had to live your life at King's Cross. :P

Quite so, I am sure.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

They stole my phone, you know. The doors were startled.

  Another possible autocorrect issue I keep seeing is "definitely" spelled as "defiantly."  :soapbox:

Shouldn't really should it? As definitely is used a lot more often.

  I suspect people are spelling "definitely" as "definately," and the autocorrect picks the wrong match.  :apondering:

The composition is excellent, and the perspective on the bent leg is a skill young children don't generally have, so if it's legitimately a child's drawing then their spelling is excused.
