Between 6 pm last night and 6 am this morning, a giant shredder escaped from the paper recycling plant down at the ferry terminal. A prominent Islander, Woodworm Willie, said he had just uncorked his second bottle of cooking whisky when he saw the shredder enter Cyril's aircraft hanger.The public are being warned not to approach the shredder. Remove all white clothing, that could be mistaken for paper, and all brand name logos that resemble letter headings and call PC Hugh Dunnett at the local station.
Police reinforcements are due to arrive from the mainland. As soon as Magnus the Bobby has pumped up the back tyre on his bicycle, he'll be catching the next ferry.
Do you think you can salvage your plane, Cyril? Such a great pity, as your plane, "The Spirit of the Last Cross Eyed Creel Maker of Balliskie," looked so good with her new wings and fresh paint.

just got back from Japan, what an awful calamity to befall a philanthropist such as I. Was the shredder acting alone or did someone point it in the direction of my hangar? Who was the last person to use the shredder at the paper plant. I think someone did this in purpose to prevent me from leaving the island. Well I have another thought coming for them...here it comes now....
