Pepper Pot - September 3

The saga continues

Seems the loan agency’s saga should not be put to rest just yet. People feel there’s more stuff to be checked out… like chunky capital deposits to a particular place. But, not necessarily to prop that place up! Nonetheless, for the sake of the borrowers, who are to be the next generation of leaders, full disclosure wouldn’t hurt their credit, would it?

Down ’cause someone’s out?

So crime’s been trending downwards for some time now. Some say it started around the time that a honcho departed. They say he’s never really had the time to fight crime, but hopefully now he’s booked for tea time, not party time.

There’s a first in there

Now that the patty shop’s been given the boot (they say because it was run that way), people are on the lookout for the new ‘kid’ on the block, courtyard for that matter. Talk is, a lady with a bakery has first dibs, but some say it’s a lady with the first bakery that has dibs, and others say it’s the first lady…

Added to that,

Some say there could be yet another scream coming from the courtyard!

Far-reaching fall out

Talk is that a certain deluxe scheme halted ’cause finances fell short. Puzzling thing is, people were of the impression money was ‘here’ for the scheme today, but seems it was ‘gone’ by tomorrow. It’s almost as if the financier had to take a special flight out, in somewhat of a hurry.

Lapped!

People say that many deals are done on the golf course, but even more on the walking track. They say, too, that that’s where many details may be hiding. So no wonder Mr Christie’s probes turn up with so many questions. Seems he could be looking for c l u e s somewhere around the 2nd or 3rd lap.

Essential travel

Who says one must have a passport to travel? Take the lady who’s supposed to have flown the coop after, it is said, her beloved seized her invaluable travel book. She got out in the nick of time, but beloved’s stuck somewhere about town trying to find every nickel and dime, though some say he’s already clean out of luck.
