Concerned about Gerrobs thought lost in the Valleys, after a final frantic email asking

"Hhave u and T fled the country? Or got arrested and jailed at the Severn border?

this reply came:

 

"Well, I’m glad you asked.

 

"I was discomfited in the extreme a few days ago when a giant Roc swooped down from the dizzy heights of the Beacons, seized me in its powerful Roc-y talons and carried me away to its inaccessible eyrie on the rocky shoulder of Fan Gihirych**. Bit of a bummer it was, like.

 

"Fortunately, after an epic escape involving the use of a small packet of rubber bands, half a haddock and the bones of the Roc’s recent prey, which happened to be lying around the nest, I got away and staggered into Sennybridge at 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon, bleeding, cursing and limping and generally looking a bit poop. I rose from my sick-bed to write this missive, such is my dedication"

It could be this was an end of term school trip and "Sir" disappeared to the delight of his juvenile charges.....

 

which opens up the door a little more for some wit as well as triumph over disaster as in a poem about Cloggy (I have to find it)..

 

Happy thinking!
