Michael, I apologize for not responding to your post. I must have missed it when you first posted. But better late than never, I hope.

Umm... April's Fool?
Nope. The story I was referring to was
If Looks Could Kill -- the darkest, WHAMmiest story I hope I'll ever write.

but I would guess that the lamp post would become more pliable if heated.
Not sure myself either, but anyway, he would had to heat it to several hundred degrees and keep it hot while wrapping I around Jack. Not fun. Other option: Don't know if it was common in London (now or back than) but it's possible that there was a chain fencing off a lawn, etc. Less spectacular, but easier in terms of do-ability
Good points. Or perhaps he used his breath to cool the lamppost *just* before it would have burned Jack?
MrsMosley, thank you for leaving feedback. It is always a delightful surprise to receive kudos for an older story.
Joy,
Lynn
