NEWSFLASH!

[GHOSTHUNTER]

WE'VE JUST HEARD FROM THE "VBD TIMES", THAT A TOP ROLLS-ROYCE MODEL COLLECTOR HAS BEEN SEEN IN THE LOCAL PARK, LYING ON A PARK BENCH, APPARENTLY VERY LIFELESS. THE REPORTER SAYS THAT A PASSER-BY SAW THE GENTLEMAN, WALKING TO THE BENCH WITH HIS HEAD IN HIS HANDS, AND MOANING AND MUMBLING WORDS LIKE. "WHY ME, WHAT HAVE I DONE" AND "LOOK AT ALL THOSE ROLLS-ROYCE MODELS, HOW CAN HE HAVE SO MANY" AND OTHER SIMILAR PHRASES.

OTHER WITNESSES SAY HE IS KNOWN AROUND HERE AND ANSWERS TO THE NAME OF "GHOSTHUNTER", IT IS UNDERSTOOD, THAT SOMEONE ON AN INTERNET FORUM, SHOWED HIM SOME PICTURES OF ROLLS-ROYCE MODELS AND IT WAS JUST TOO MUCH AND HE BECAME OVERWHELMED.

A LOCAL DOCTOR SAYS HE SHOULD RECOVER, BUT IT WILL TAKE TIME AND HE REALLY SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM ANY MORE ROLLS-ROYCE MODELS FOR THE TIME BEING.

THE LAST WE HEARD, THE MAN HAS APPARENTLY GOT HOME AND LOCKED HIMSELF IN A DARK CUPBOARD...

TWO RATHER INTERESTING TOY CAR COLLECTIONS HAVE RECENTLY BEEN SOLD BY THEIR ONCE PROUD OWNERS.

APPARENTLY BOTH COLLECTIONS, (NOT CONNECTED) WERE VERY VALUABLE, THAT WAS UNTIL A MYSTERY ATTACK BY WILD CATS, RENDERED THE COLLECTIONS PRETTY MUCH VALUELESS.

IT SEEMS THAT THE CATS ARE FED UP WITH PLAYING SECOND FIDDLE TO THEIR OWNERS TOY CARS AND HAVE DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. ONE OWNER WHO WANTS TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS, (WE'LL CALL HIM FIXER) FOUND IT HARD TO SPEAK TO US THROUGH THE TEARS, BUT SAYS..."I HAVE WORKED MY BUTT OFF, TRYING TO KEEP THE WIFE AND KIDS HAPPY, NOT WANTING FOR TOY CARS, COME RAIN OR SHINE, I ALWAYS MADE SURE THERE WERE PLENTY OF TOY CARS IN THE HOUSE, BUT NOW LOOK AT THEM, THE KIDS WON'T STOP CRYING, MY WIFE WON'T TALK TO ME, MY LIFE IS OVER"...
A DISTURBING SCENE IN FIXER'S HOUSE.

ITS A SIMILAR STORY WITH THE SECOND VICTIM, MR X, HE CAME HOME, (WE'LL CALL HIM RVREVO) HEARD A LOT OF CRASHING NOISES FROM UPSTAIRS AND WHEN RVREVO INVESTIGATED, HIS TOY CARS WERE BECOMING BROKEN AND PUSHED AROUND LIKE THERE WAS NO TOMORROW AND HE COULD SEE THE CAT WAS IN NO MOOD TO NEGOTIATE FOR A BETTER POSITION WITHIN THE FAMILY. RVREVO LATER SAID..."I DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO, THAT WAS THE BEST TOY CAR COLLECTION ON THIS SIDE OF THE STREET, IT'LL TAKE ABSOLUTELY DAYS TO REPLACE ALL THOSE, I SHALL BE OUT OF POCKET BY AT LEAST A HUNDRED BUCKS".

BOTH VICTIMS ARE CURRENTLY UNDERGOING SPECIAL COUNSELLING FROM THE LOCAL TOY SUPPORT GROUP.

THE CENTRE'S MANAGER SAYS..."IT'S A SAD FACT OF LIFE, THAT THESE DAYS, SO MANY HTF MODELS FIND IT DIFFICULT TO FIND GOOD LEVEL-HEADED OWNERS AND SO MANY ARE SET OUT TO PASTURE IN COLD DAMP ATTICS AND GARAGES, I FELT SORRY FOR THEM AND DECIDED A HOME WHERE THEY CAN ALL BE HAPPY TOGETHER WAS NEEDED".

THE CENTRE WILL HAVE REGULAR WEEKEND VISITING HOURS, SO ANY OWNERS CAN AT LEAST STILL VISIT THEIR LOVED HTF'S, HAVE A TALK WITH THEM AND GIVE THEM A LITTLE POLISHING ETC.

THE CENTRE IS SET IN THE HERTFORDSHIRE COUNTRYSIDE, WITH VIEWS OF ROLLING HILLS AND OPEN FIELDS TO MAKE SURE THAT MANY HTF'S SPEND THEIR LAST YEARS, IN COMFORTABLE SURROUNDINGS.

Ghosty-TV, would like to point out to readers of VBD Times, that there is no financial connection between the 'johnboy centre for HTF Models' and itself, no monetary gain was had by either concern from the posting of the last image and if it had, it would donate the funds to charity, namely the...'Save the World from funny punns'...

There are disturbing reports that a senior member of a model car forum has gone missing. Reports say he is a pillar of society and a well respected member of the model community, however, his social life friends are saying they have not heard from him for a number of weeks now and concerns are building as to his safety.

He is naturally a bit of a recluse and very private, but we have managed to obtain an exclusive Artist's Impression of what he last looked like, but we know a friend lent him $3.000 dollars for some plastic surgery, and now nobody knows what he looks like...

We have printed a copy of a poster that his friends are putting up in his neighberhood and if you think you know him as he was or as he is now, ring the number at the bottom of the poster.
