I apologise for not writing sooner, but my Private Detective business http://www.perfectmurder.co.uk/ has been taking up an awful lot of my time. I have travelled the length of the country solving cases of one sort or another.
Before we know it, Christmas will be upon us. The year has simply flown by. Traditionally, Pokeingham-Softly-on-the-Wold, my home village, holds a Candlelight Carol service the Sunday before Christmas. It has always been a well attended and Revd. Cheeseman works very hard in the months leading up to it to ensure it will be a success.
As usual, this year he ordered thiry-four large Jaffas from Prestwicks in the village well in advance. These will be decorated with ribbons, cloves and candles and carried by the village children in procession through the lanes to Our Lady of the Morning After.
Prestwicks is a most reliable company when it comes to fruit, but this year Revd. Cheeseman has been let down. Prestwicks has been burgled and all orders have been cancelled. This has a knock on effect throughout the area. Poor Gladys Musquash has not been able to sit down on a hard chair for almost a week and since her inflatable sprung a slow puncture in June, it seems her Christmas may be most uncomfortable.
I write this mesage by way of appeal; please, if you are offered six large tubes of Preparation H, thirty un-rippened Jaffa Oranges or a powerful Hot Water Bottle and Home Enema Kit, contact me immediately. A reward of £1/7/6d is offered by Mrs Musquash for the safe return of her medication.
Also, I would like to say how delighted I was to visit my lovely friends at Tor FX recently and no doubt they were pleased to benefit from my knowledge of Foreign Currency trading.
