Take a look outside dear readers and see if you can spot any flying pigs! Except of course if you live on the eastern seaboard of the United States right now because hurricane assistance doesn't count, they must have their own wings!

You could also take a thermal reading of hell to see if it's a bit cooler these days because the unthinkable has happened. Arts Council England, otherwise known as The Big Bad, The Funding Monolith or "are you ******* kidding me?" has granted Article19, this pokey little website, some funding to help with the making of our video features.

Some of the more astute among you may have noticed their logo on the last nine videos we've published this week.

Now, this doesn't mean that we, here in TheLab™, are going to "go easy" on the Big Bad, not a bit of it, but it was awfully nice of them to acknowledge how awesome they thought we were in the notification letter......... we might be making that up!

To date we have produced eleven videos (three as yet un-published) with their funding assistance which is eleven more more than some other organisation produced with five times the amount of funding we applied for.

See, we can still throw a good punch when it's called for.

In a statement ACE admitted they thought Article19 was awesome and "all that!". At least they would have if we had asked them because who would say such a thing out loud?

Lots more video features to follow.
