  1. MONDAY 14 April DEATH AT THE MANOR Lord Pinchbottom, famous for his collection of pygmy goats has died in suspicious circumstances. He lived at Twittington Manor – a beautiful stately home that has been in the Pinchbottom family for 200 years. His body was found at lunchtime and foul play is suspected. Local policeman, John Plodder, suggested that the Lord had died as a result of murder. “It was the screwdriver sticking out of his chest that made me suspicious” he said. Police have interviewed all the suspects in the case and are expected to make an arrest very soon. The police are using computer technology to assist them. “We are certain we will catch the person involved. The murderer needs to be caught as soon as possible” said PC John Plodder. “We need to go through all the suspects and their motives. Then we can work out who was around at the time of the murder and hopefully catch the culprit”.
