Death is too good for this Boy.

Well, Dear Readers, today's post is longer than usual and illustrated by more photographs than usual. As I posted a few days ago, Chris has left for Thailand and Cambodia, and is scheduled to be away for 4 weeks and a few days. The bad news is that we have taken the opportunity to venture in to the usually prohibited area and....
so we would like to put before the court of public opinion (which Harriett Harmen referred to recently) the evidence we discovered.

The following photos illustrate the depths to which teenagers will sink....

I give you the offender's desk, M'Lud.....

















How do you study in this mess?















The Bookcase...




please note the broken bowl (of which more later)
























the state of the desk and the floor...


































Then to finish a couple of views of the total collection of crockery, glasses and cutlery that have been squirrelled away in his room.....































We now know where 13 mugs, 3 beakers, 4 glasses, 5 bowls, 6 spoons, 1 knife and one plastic container(!) had vanished to. One of the bowls has been broken and all the bowls seem to be supporting primitive forms of life.

The only thing that may save him from a fate so terrible, that I hardly dare to think about it, is that we had a message from him this morning to say that he was well and enjoying himself hugely.

We now come to the subject of a suitable sanction. I shall need to ponder this for some time, in order to think up something suitably Machiavellian. In the meantime, I would welcome any suggestions in the form of comments to this post.

Thank you, in anticipation.
