The two new Constables at Toieland Police Station spot a strange vagrant wandering through the village, is it a simple tramp or the adventurer Richard Hannay in clever disguise ?
He approaches the Vicar Mr Collins , and asks an strange question
.
He seems pleased with the answer to his question and shuffles off down the road leaving a baffled Mr Collins behind . How significant is this information ? , perhaps we might be informed sometime in the near future !?.
Mysterious... Let's hope Hannay avoids the man with the hooded eyes.
ReplyDeleteYe I'd forgotten him !
DeleteAh, the mystery deepens! Your constables look great in front of your Police House Tony! I wonder what the 39 steps mean? Hmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteThe enigma of the 39 steps .
DeleteIs it to do with the number of steps up to the Royal Bix at the old Wembley stadium? 😉
DeleteBox not bix 🤦♂️
DeleteCould be ?!
DeleteNice little teaser....the thirty nine steps seem to have had several different meaning over the years, since the original version was created by John Buchan ...I wonder what their significance could be in a quiet English church?
ReplyDeleteCould be where Buchan got his idea from ?
DeletePsst. I've heard there are actually 42 steps not 39.
ReplyDeleteNo that's the answer to everything !
DeleteAn enigma wrapped in a riddle. Perhaps Mr Collins might consult Father Brown?
ReplyDeleteYes that would be the chap to sort it out !
DeleteAn enjoyable and witty cartoon with figures!
