The Ambridge Socialist

Grundy Ferretts are back at last
Ferretts were a central part of the late Joe Grundy’s repertoire but they have been little heard of in Ambridge recently. However after Eddie Grundy had a ferret stall at Lower Loxley’s late May event, its clear that ferrets are back. He has joined the Ambridge Fete Committee despite Lynda’s concerns and suggests several possible events including ferret dolls (made by Clarrie) and ferret racing against people.
Knacker Burns: everything’s gone green
PC Sgt Knacker Burns has queried whether he wants to continue his career as a police officer. Given his failure to find the missing bunting it’s understandable. His thought of getting involved with matters green and natural suggests that he has been watching Springwatch. He might check the views of the Ambridge ruling class on that, where nature is not to enjoy but to make profit from.
Lee is on restricted duties
After Lee whacked Titchener he was questioned by the police about assault. He of course proclaims his innocence but it remains to be seen how Titchener wants to proceed. After a meeting with Dominic, a solicitor on Friday, it became clear that Titchener wants a F2F discussion with Lee. The Ambridge Socialist suggests an arm wrestling contest.
Meanwhile Lee has prudently told his manager at the Laurels and attended a meeting with his union rep. He is now on restricted duties which is, arguably prudent all round.
