This just in... details are still sketchy, but we now have a confirmed report, from an unconfirmed source, that Ghosty ( who is one of our best "undercover" operatives btw) has just made good his escape from the isle of doom. Our source tells us that Ghosty, apparently made his escape in the wee hours of the morning, tip-toeing out of the compound wearing a pink bath robe with matching fuzzy slippers. He then promptly stuffed himself into an oversize caviar tin and mailed himself back to the UK.
(postage due of course). His fate, now rests in the hands of, the Royal Mail.

Let's hope it's not a "Return to Sender"

You've nailed it Ghosty!!!

We have been receiving reports of a lone 'Pub Mirror' is pining for company.

The story comes from a reliable source close to the forum department of the 'V B D Times' and mentions the 'Mirror' has become very lonely due to the fact it is unique, no other Mirrors of his type are known. The owner who tends to the Mirror on a daily basis, says there are no markings on the back, but it seems to always be mimicking a model car, something we thought was unique to the Kameleon Animal, making it very difficult to know if its Male or Female.

The owner (who wants to remain anonymous), is asking for someone to come forward with a partner and the sex problem will be tackled when the two are together.

So please, if you have one of these 'Pub Mirrors' pretending to be a model car, looking to mate or at least see another member of its kind, leave a message on our answer phone on the usual number.

Now the Weather in your area.
