IT was apparently inspired by a conversation about Liberace.
Sometime in the early hours of Friday an ironing table, an iron, a bottle of cider and a candelabra were attached to the chimney of a house at Plasterfield. Since then, the residents have been scratching their heads to figure out how it was done and why.
John Scobie, the occupier of the wartime pre-fabricated dwelling, also seemed a bit confused.
Occupier John Scobie could not explain it.
“I think it was my mate Billy Bins. He used to be my mate, put it that way. We were talking about Liberace and I think he did this sometime after that. It is very embarrassing but most people can see the funny side.
“Maybe Billy Bins forgot to take his cider down or maybe that is supposed to represent champagne, I am not quite sure. I suppose I had better take it down soon,” he said.
Property owner Hebridean Housing Partnership said they were looking into reports of unauthorised attachments on a chimney.
Ochone ochone
Wonderful. How refreshing to learn that Plasterfield is not the humourless, cultural desert that it has seemed for all these years.
Hi Mr Scobie. Luv ya, babes.
