    NOTE ABOUT PRONUNCIATION OF "SLOUGH"

    A number of helpful people have gotten in touch to tell me I should have pronounced "slough" as "slew" as that is how it is pronounced in that part of the world. However, it was not a word known to me (not used much in British English, at least not in the sense meant in this story) so I referred to Merriam-Webster dictionary which suggested US speakers (except in New England) would pronounce the word "slew" or "sloo", but added that British English speakers would usually say "slau" (like the English town) even if they were refererring to an American swamp. As a British English speaker myself that was what I went with.

    As I'm rather tired of people assuming I don't do any research when I record these damn stories, I thought I'd set the record straight. No need for anyone else to tell me it should be "slew". Any issues, take it up with the dictionary people.πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€If you like, you can donate in the following ways:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/encryptedpodYouTube channel membership: https://www.youtube.com/c/EnCryptedClassicHorror/joinOne-off donation: https://ko-fi.com/encryptedpodcastYou can now also say THANKS (on YouTube) with a SUPER THANKS!LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE - it all helps the show survive and prosper!If you want to discuss the show, talk business, or have any ideas for stories you'd like to hear in future episodes, contact me: [email protected]πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€About the story:"Fish Head” by Irvin S.
