On occasion when the Prisoner is about, there
is sometimes an upset cup and saucer. Only we can’t blame him for this one, nor
can the blame be placed on the cat. After all if the cat had done it, the only
way possible would be for the cat to knock both cup and saucer off the table,
and that clearly didn’t happen. So to quote Sherlock Holmes, “Once you
eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be
the truth.” So someone must have been abroad in The Village, hiding under the
table, behind the balustrade of the Old people’s Home.
As for the cat, it’s very well trained, to
remain sat there when the cup and saucer were smashed. Many a cat would have
run off. And then to remain there on
the table when the broken crockery was replaced on the day of the Prisoner’s
return. As for the cat, it seems fascinated by the parachutist floating down
towards the beach!
Be seeing you
