Relief of the 1500 Greenodd residents held hostage by Somali pirates in Mogadishu is materialising day by day. Superintendent Harry "snapper" Organs of Q Division is in charge of forming ideas and coming up with suitable remedies to the ongoing crisis.
"Why only yesterday, while me and the boys were having a quick game of gin rummy, I suggested we ring the President of USA, whats his name, Obama, see if he could do soming."
Meanwhile, members of the Stratford-On-Avon Shakespearian Theatre have gotten together to formulate a rapid rescue attempt involving local actors.
"They will reenact essentially the fourth scene of Act Three from Richard II to break out the hostages and gain their release" said Dick Throbbington, local thespian, who in his spare time enjoys growing flowers and painting landscapes.
With the kidnappers making lots of noise about eliminating one hostage per day if payment of ransom money isn't forthcoming, authorities are becoming a tiny bit edgy.
"These yobs are getting too big for their boots and I for one don't like it" remarked Superintendent Organs.
More news hopefully.
