Your Messages - Theme for Day 3
Among the things handed into the lost property department today were: four pairs of spectacles, one laptop, three library books, six sets of keys, one red stiletto shoe.
My response:
He opened the handbags - a lottery ticket caught his attention. Must check that later. Now the laptop. The screen glowed with the MOD's logo.
An average haul for the day.

Hello,
I'm currently not posting to this blog, so I have disabled comments. This is to reduce the amount of spam being dealt with which has been the sole source of comments on here for over a year.
Rest assured that all comments are Moderated, so you won't be seeing anything that's offensive or advertorial.
I've also disabled backlinks, so there's no point in a spammer leaving a comment.
If you're a genuine commenter, then I'm sorry to inconvenience you. Do email me at vegplotting at gmail dot com if you still have something to say :)
Best wishes,
