"Old Lub"
the drunken gardener scarecrow has now returned home to Main
Street after his kidnapping during the Weekend of Straw. His
family were pleased to receive him home following his ordeal
and a lap of honour around the village. They remarked that
he looked a little pale and had lost weight but felt that
a good night's rest and some good sustenance would soon put
the colour back in his cheeks. We joined him and his creators
for a glass of bubbly before leaving him to rest peacefully
in his wheelbarrow with a few cans of beer.
Seems
like some students from Loughborough Uni doing a charity run
from London to Loughborough took him hostage. Maybe some of
us will be visiting Loughborough in the future to getback
his travelling expenses!
