Anyone Visiting Aberdeen?? Moulding Mission Available

Post by daviddeer »

I wondered if anyone is near/visiting Aberdeen. I have a mission, should they choose to accept it. :ninja:
The story;
One day, on a far-away website, an order is placed for Golf prints by Richard Chorley (the Road Hole and Swilcan Bridge in St Andrews). The client emails and says that he would like it framed in the same dark wood as the one he has seen in the Athol Hotel Aberdeen! They are hanging in the dining room. The Hotel Manager has contacted his supplier and he cannot identify the moulding. I am in Biggleswade????
The Mission;
Penetrate security at the Athol Hotel, locate the prints and identify the moulding used. Report back for a mission debrief with moulding number and supplier details and possibly photographs.
Tips;
The use of discreet bra and thong cameras has been authorised by mission control. A heavy disguise may be necessary (no Kilts) as well as an authentic local accent. To avert suspicion try wandering around the lobby muttering "it's a braw, bricht, moonlicht nicht, the-nicht", if questioned just repeat "I dinny ken".
Results;
As well as helping myself you will be weaving the story for the pilot program of the new series, "Secret Hotel Frame Squad". Starring M as 'M', Q as 'Q', Gordon Ramsay as 'F' the Big Boss who tells everyone where to go and Danny De Vito as 'agent short' the man who couldn't quite reach the dado rail.

Here's hoping someone can help, otherwise the children in the orphanage will starve this Christmas. :cry:

Just a thought - Could you ask the hotel manager to email you a photo of the moulding which you could then post here for all to see - I'm sure one of us could identify it!

I wouldn't have threatened the children. I think you'll have a quicker response if you threaten to shoot the kitten! :twisted:

But Where's the fun in that?

No Searchlights, no razor wire and no full cavity searches. No.... we need agent cunning.
