Slow news day in Yorkshire

One of Robertson Davies' novels started out with a wedding notice being printed that gave the date of the wedding as November 31st. Thus, the thought that February might have a couple more days in it when spent in Yorkshire seems to have informed this news story.

I especially liked the last line: "He said that despite some research nothing more was known about Mr Tomlinson apart from the tantalising fact that he he lived with his brother on a farm in Gateford, Worksop."

I guess that "tantalising" means something different north of St. Albans.

And P.S. to my previous post

I got someone to do a caricature from my picture for a dollar. It's now my default userpic. I like it.

It's here, for those who would like to see it slightly bigger.
