with his presence. 'Well praise be!' Parson Cross enthused, 'God has provided, the poor of our parish will be fed tonight. It reminds me of the Bible story of the five loaves and two fishes that fed the multitudes. All it takes is the faith of a mustard seed to move mountains. And here we have a veritable mountain of beef burgers, my prayers have been answered. Thank you, thank you for your stupendously generous donation,' he said wringing the drivers hand. 'May God bless you abundantly and peace be with you brother.' The driver looked very sheepish and decided he'd send the bill instead to Mr Revolting who had ordered the consignment.

are those morons doing out there?' On inspection, I discovered the huge pile of cat litter, mixed with a generous helping of dirt, deposited slap bang in front of our door, making it impossible to open. I bellowed at the idiots but they just waved and drove off. Fuming, I rang the truck company and told them if they didn't move the heap forthwith, they'd have a lawsuit on their hands.

for delivery?' 'Well I don't know about that...' 'I've been tossing up whether it's really worth the bother of putting up with your pesky boys around the place,' I added. 'Very well, then,' he sighed. 'You do know the esteemed Major Flowers is being held in police custody, don't you? He's asking for bail, but as you know, my limited funds won't allow for it at this stage. Perhaps you ...?' 'Best to let the law take it's course, I feel. And not a word to Rosie, she thinks he's away on holiday in Liechtenstein and the idea of him being incarcerated would ...

You Took Me Heart and Soul ~ The Narcs

asked Rosie if there were any of my favourite jammie dodgers left. 'I can't be thinking of jammie dodgers at a time like this! Whatever's wrong with you, Johnny?? Daddy's obviously suffering from some sort of temporary mental lapse and he needs us!' 'That's all very well, but we've no idea where he is (I knew exactly where he was but had no intention of sharing that little piece of info) and ...

'Now Major, let me speak to the Fuzz.' 'Who's fuzzy? Are you calling me fuzzy, you impertinent whippersnapper? I'll have you know ...' I hung up on him. 'Oh dear, we seem to have been cut off.

But suffice it to say that the police did become involved, not at the request of the Major but rather in the form of a raid on an unlicensed premises. He was caught in a most compromising position and found himself once again sporting a pair of sturdy handcuffs. Being allowed to make one phone call, he rang ...

So I thought I'd find me boys, they're expert in the art of lock-picking, bless 'em.
