  1. Necropolis railway station being turned into flats.

    I bet people will be dieing to live there.

    (Sorry, obvious joke, surprised I was not beaten to it).

  2. ‘London Necropolis’ stonework has been cleaned of labelling for some time.

    I like the Covid legacy of medical academy advises not speaking on the phone when close to others.
    We used to have etiquette, now we have enforcement penalties.

    ‘Shop singly to avoid speaking’ & then on phone throughout.
