A strange find.

[Harvestman]

I was wandering around on the Welsh side of the Severn estuary (I refuse to call it the Bristol channel) yesterday, close to the mouth of the Wye, and amongst the usual detritus in the strand line, was this plate

Ken!
18 yrs old
Dark blue jkt
Black trousers
Broken upper
right arm

 

[Samon]

he should have dated it! I don't think the story ended/began well though..

Sounds like someone trying to remember something. Like a witness.

 

[crosslandkelly]

I hope he's ok.

 

[WULF]

A very strange find,almost concerning..............
Anything untoward happened in that area recentley???

 

[mountainm]

I'd hand it into the police, along with any worry.

I'd hand it into the police, along with any worry.

I didn't think of that, and just left it where it was. There have been no news stories about disappearances in this area, as far as I am aware.

An unbroken plate in the upper strand line was odd enough, but a plate with a message on? And why write on a plate anyway?

 

[swotty]

Very odd...sounds like time for some detective work.....

 

[Zingmo]

Sounds like an ebay item description: among the sellers other items is a vintage Barbie!

That is a odd and worrying find, report it to the police it might be the end or beginning of a interesting story.

Sounds like a marker for a search and rescue exercise

Possibly. Although you'd think it would have a disclaimer on it if it were.

I wonder what he tasted like?

 

[Harvestman]

Well you guys have been a big help. I'm now even more confused and a lot more worried.





Just kidding. Keep the speculations coming. It didn't occur to me that this might be serious enough to warrant police attention. Maybe it is nothing, maybe it is something. I don't know.

I'm with you on that one.
Drop an email to SARA Mike. Mervyn Flemming is the head honcho (rescue coordinator).

I'm also friends with one of the crew on Fudgebook if it helps.

 

[Harvestman]

SARA?

Is that the Search And Rescue Association? New one on me.

 

[The Big Lebowski]

Sorry, i thought you would know them with the Trust work.

Agree that a team would use a disclaimer or something. Wonder if it's DofE scout or cadet incident hike marker. ?

I would of thought it was pretty straight forward, i mean the answer has been handed to you on a plate.

I'll eh, get me coat.

Sounds like the 'Ken and Barbie" thing to me - I wouldn't worry too much!
