The Enemy Within:

STAMP THIEF CAUGHT.

At an Open Day held recently in Brisbane, one of the dealers present
noticed that certain valuable items were missing from a stockbook.
The matter was reported to the President, who made an
announcement.

Another dealer suggested that one member be asked to turn down his
socks. This was done and two packets of stamps came to light. On
checking, they were found to contain some of the missing stamps.
The matter was reported to police.
A prominent citizen, a member of the Committee of the Society, has
since tendered his resignation.
Names of the Society and persons concerned in the incident have
been withheld pending the outcome of possible court proceedings.

i thought this iwas the glamorous indian states thread and you were calling for tony :)

And I felt certain he had you in mind, young Spock. Enemy within? Who else could it be?

if I am young you would be at least 150 young Tony :)

poor Tony he gets all worked up after seeing the glamourous indian states

he wanted indian states popularized and I am doing it :)

Could the forum administrators please explain the posts of "spock1k" and "tonymacg"?????

I've just returned to this forum and these two users seem to have some secret reason to hijack threads and post comments that are totally disconnected with the main subject.

Can someone explain?

You have been out of touch !!

They are related to this theft thread. I think Spock wanted to steal Tonymacgs avatar.

Thanks, philb

I'm sure it'll grow on me! Or not.

Tony will be very busy after the comment while I post away

You still brighten my day Spock

Spocks got a couple of harpoons in him..but theres still rope left to run...

Spock as Moby Dick, and myself as Captain Ahab? Interesting ...

i thought you were going to be the blue whale :)

No, I rather fancy the thought of a wooden leg. Like Noel Coward's Nina from Argentina.

it just dawned on me after reading BC's comment

we need to get you an avatar

Well, I use this



as an avatar in another place. Would that disturb you less?
