I really must pay more attention to the pics on the sides of the boxes! :o

I never noticed the pic of the priest who's so 'merry' that he can't stand up before. :lol:

Thanks for giving us your interpretation of the set, Kristian. :)

Thanks for a brilliant bit of story-telling, Kristian ...

Dan Brown better watch out, as your story was as good as "The Da Vinci Code" ... :)

All the best,
Richard

Through internet I just discovered the probable profession of the mother-in-law.
The clue is in the red bonnet  ;D

This is it:

and the cities of Bern and Zurich ordered that red caps must be worn by women soliciting for sex

That's a VERY INTERESTING ARTICLE ...

This sentence from the summation is also a bit thought provoking. "The selling of one's body in return for money or sustenance upon which to live is a dehumanizing act."

I wonder if this statement might also be applicable to athletes in professional sports who take money to participate in activities that over time causes irreparable damage and stress to their bodies ... ???

Thanks for the link, Bogro.
And, all the best,
Richard

I didn't say I'd agree with it.

But that's just what comes from the original texts.
makes you wonder what the designer(s) of this set were actually thinking off when they were working on it ;-)

After all - she might be a "left-over" from last nights stag-party :-D

Interesting article Bogro.

This set becomes more and more naughty...  ;D

Now I cannot stop thinking that the "father-in-law" may not be the father at all. I'm sure the "priest" is the real father. In more than one way, that is...  ;)

I liked your story and ideas. However as an English man I must draw exception to Braveheart which was the biggest pile of un-historic and anti-English film ever until The Patriot which had English soldiers re-enacting Nazi atrocities from WWII. I just realized they were both from Mel Gibbson who of course isn't racist in anyway shape or form. Must just be a figment of my imagination. Still you got to love that priest
