The curious incident of the stone Toby Jug in the night-time
Adrian went to a party at Garden Museum this evening (a thank you to all the volunteers) and when he got home he spotted something unusual in our drive.
After a flurry of text messages Lynne and Miranda popped round for an emergency summit (Bobby stopped as he was walking George).
Hypotheses so far:
a) practical joke (although it's heavy to carry)
b) early birthday present for Adrian from a couple of friends, two streets away (but his birthday is almost a week away and there was no card)
c) it was stolen from a garden and dumped here (again, it's heavy and the gate was closed - someone up to no good wouldn't bother)
d) it brings bad luck and someone just had to get rid of it but couldn't risk destroying it
"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?"
If tomorrow morning when I leave for work, I find more, I might just scream!
