Description
This collection comes from 1993.
What was Marzi Mumford’s special talent? What made Miss Jackson scream? Why was it lucky that it was a ketchup day? What did Marzi make for Royston Murfitt, and why did people think they could smell gas?
What was wrong with Maudie’s smile? How does she help Mr Thrussell shift his nuts? What glistens and clings? What’s a Winter Special? How do you keep your gravy under control? Why did Dennis jettison his peas?
Has there been an accident near the LNER? What runs from Glastonbury to Murmansk? Who was Sirius? Why was Dennis flummoxed? And just who are The Ponytail People?
Mr South and Dennis are at the 123rd Rhubarb Festival, and all the talk is of the long, pink, stiff stuff. And there’s a song as well.
Dennis has a plan to make Ely more exciting for the ‘foreigners and trippers’. Mr South is disbelieving, but Dennis tells him some facts the tourists never get to hear.
