The mysterious Putin Vanishing...

13th April 2015

 Dear Sirs,

 There has been much confusion recently about the whereabouts of the Russian leader Putin. 

 Due to my military contacts I can now confirm that he was attending a top secret Tiddlywinks competition in Helsinki!

 The President has a great love of Tiddlywinks and plays it whenever he can. Also at the event was a specialist team from the British MI5 who have a department dedicated to the game.

 Yours, as always
GENERAL P.M. HAMPTON Esq (Rtd) etc, etc

He has given me exclusive permission to publish his 'Letters' here and also highlight events and people who live in this quaint village in the wilds of Dorset.. Expect the Unexpected...
