The Institute was founded in 1124 by a Franciscan Monk who was known throughout Scotland as Father Mulligatawny on account of his rather disturbing odour. It has been speculated that his true name was Keith McAnusol. Mulligatawny/McAnusol created the Institute on the express orders of King Bridie XXIVth. The King was growing tired of Scotland and as he put it in his Xmas message of 1123: The King wanted to sell the land to the Pope who was looking for a place to dump heretics who believed that small cerise lizards were communicating the true word of God through the medium of mime.
