Calling Home ...

Mr & Mrs Robinson have gone for a short drive in the country a few miles from Salisbury ....

Aftre passing through a small village of Durncombe, they turned off the road and went up a small farm track, till they reached a barn...

  They went into the barn and got a small suitcase from a hiding place in a large barrel, it was a radio - they set it up on an old table...
Having selected the correct frequency Mrs Robinson sent the message...
  • Signal: Walrus to Mother Goose, Walrus to Mother Goose
  • Return: Mother Goose here
  • Signal: Three pigeons to come home, advise on route
  • Return: Message received,  call back for booking details
  • Signal: OK, Walrus signing of


  • After sending the message they packed up the radio and took it with them and put it in the back of the van; time to move it to another hiding place ......


    ---oXo---

    Shortly after at an army camp on Salisbury plain, a unit receives a message from their HQ -  'radio traffic tri-angulated to Durncombe, search the village and adjoining area'
     An officer and a squad of men got into their lorries and drove off,  when they arrived at Durncombe they sealed off the village and starting searching ...

     After a while a car drew up at one end of the village and a man in a coat presented his credentials...
    Officer: Nothing found in the village sir, however it looks like someone has been in the old barn up this track.
    Man in Coat: Ok, get me details of who owns the barn and then get back to base.

    Have I tracked down one of your incoming or outgoing pigeons?

    Superb. Enjoying this blog greatly. The road or track of painty wheels on felt works really well.
