While I was taking these pictures, a half-English woman came over to me and explained that "Mel" is a contraction of "Gemelli", and the village got that name because at one point in history it was ruled by a pair of twins.
A few people have said that the blurry person in this photo looks like a ghost or even the Grim Reaper.
Taken at Denmark Hill London Overground Station.
Happy Halloween 🎃

#ElonMusk’s PAC launched an X Community supposedly focused on “exposing voter fraud & election interference."
But it's being used to dox election workers, who will likely be threatened. As far as the DOJ is concerned, threats to election workers will be investigated & prosecuted.
This is another case of Musk using his platform to interfere with the election.
