Right come on, which one of ye rotten divils wis it?
Poor Gary was outbid by some beggar at the last minute and the village was denied a priceless heirloom. Might I suggest a damned conspiracy?
I thought that it might be Sanyanya, but I doubt that he has a Paypal account. Morenish maybe, but no, he's too cute for that. A fermer wouldn't pay for the postage, even for the craic, when he knows that if you go down to the quay, they have any amount of that particular cerd through the back.
Hurricane Jeck perhaps? He seems to have access to the internet through the back of the granny and grandpa farm. Tickety Boo's a possibility as well, he seems to be an ex-pat, desperate to post a picture of some sort on the log. (Hopefully not to rub Gary's nose in it, and no, I'm not talking Sally's Walk).
Bubbly, what aboot you?
This item wasn't like one of the boxes of vintage 'Valentine' postcards safely filed in amongst the nuts and bolts in the back shop Do you remember the old boxed sets? Some of them may still be available. Ask one of the brothers for details, but choose carefully......
This was a card with an impressive pedigree, that had been half way round the world and was almost ready to return to its source. Jeest like a salmon grilse running back to the brown water of the 'Burn' (Is it only broon below Dippen?), and damn me just as it reached Springwell, someone shot a splash net roond it and lobbed in a handful of boulders.
So come on Snoddy, own up!!!
