“I don’t know,” said Daniel.

“Why the hell is Greco-Roman wrestling so stupid?” asked Claire.

“I don’t know,” said Daniel.

Tales From The Town #180: Hot

It was hot. Too hot. Too hot to sleep. Too hot to move. Too hot to moan.

Okay, it wasn’t too hot to moan. But it was definitely too hot for anything else.

Tales From The Town #179: Puppet Show

The puppet show will be appearing at various locations around the town throughout the summer. Performances last for approximately 45 minutes and entry is free. The puppets are 8 to 12 inches high and made from varnished wood, and move across the stage in ways variously described as “creepy” (Ethel, aged 9), “weird” (Claire, aged 9), “mesmerising” (Tina, aged 9), and “like if they were secretly spiders” (Daniel, aged 9). The stories they tell have been proclaimed as “eerie” (Ethel), “stupid” (Claire), “moving” (Tina), and “like secret spider dreams” (Daniel).

Whoever is operating them and for what purpose is currently unknown. If you have any information or concerns about anything related to puppets or puppetry, please call 999 immediately.
