Just Waiting To Be Asked …….

There is always a frisson of excitement when a pile of the local free magazine is dropped off in the corner of The Towers communal entrance ……….

……. to be honest, I think we are the only ones who avail ourselves of its many pleasures, be it local places of interest, walks, events, puzzles, recipes, even the adverts  …….

……. so I guess we devour it for everyone in the block, except you know who!

At the moment Darrell and Nigel’s favourite page is “You Say”, where roving reporter Donna Lawson stops and asks people in town the probing question of the day.

Now …… Darrell and Nigel are desperate to know what the undoubtedly fragrant Donna looks like, so that if she’s ever around when they are also in town, they could discreetly hang around in the hope of being approached to give their very sage words or opinions while posing for a cheeky photograph!

Oh, and in answer to this months question ………….

…….. well, Darrell said he would take his much flicked through copy of The Seaweed Cookbook (by Aster) as seaweed would probably form the majority of his diet until he was rescued from the island and in return Nigel decided he’d be sure to take an ample supply on indigestion tablets.  What on earth are they like?

As I have mentioned previously, I used to devour the equivalent Shropshire magazine, when I lived there.

I suspect this is Donna Lawson. The photo of David Ballantyne looks excellent, so I think a professional photographer took it.

I even found her address, but I won't put it, in case Nigel decides to "stalk" her, in order that he is interviewed one day.

Mr.D the detective.
