Good morrow, Mr Rockhead.
The canal barge is greatly exercising the minds of we humble folk in the village. After the excitement of Miss Wemyss's Away Day to Tyndrum we had all hoped that we too might share in this great adventure. We understood that the barge was awaiting the completion of its seaworthiness certificate and then the excitement would begin anew.
We also understood that Sir Jasper was hoping to raise enough money to buy a replacement for Champion the Wonder Horse, who these days divides his time between chomping in the field behind Mr Patel's shop and water skiing duties.
On these matters we have heard no more. So my dear father, Mr Keeper, sits enjoying a pipe or two while he awaits the need to work the lock. He also tells me that we here in South Worcestershire are frustratingly starved of any communication reaching us from London and the South East. We must send them A Message.
