My Dearest Cindy,

How well I recall November 14th 1964, it was a bleak day and having just been appointed to my post with Scotland Yard the call came in for an illegal cockfight we all turned out in riot gear expecting the worst. Rounding the corner we observed several dozen people running in the opposite direction, the rest of the men wanted to give chase but I was mesmerized by the sight of the goat and mongoose dueling it out in the square ring and ordered them to stand still. Upon interviewing Farmer Worzelshanks he offered a tidy sum for the widows and orphans fund and by that time even Aljernon Winston Artie the third of Cleethorpes was looking winded, Ed was stumbling about and bouncing off the ropes. Since the trainer Big Sam had run off already I instructed the lads to ring the bell and bring them back to their neutral corners, they were both bloodied and woozy by this point and after an application of some styptic to stop the bleeding and a nice cool down with a sponge the match resumed.

It went on for several more rounds before the Chief Inspector arrived and called it a draw, he collected the money for the widows and orphans fund and was never seen again.

As for the kiosk’s I would suggest you just place them in the middle of the night, stationmasters usually do not have a clue as to what British Rail is up to and would probably just overlook the whole thing, after all why make it more complicated than necessary.
