Sheep???? 
Matt, what's this I here about a tributary to this fine river?

Apparently there is a River Vavoom that has been diverted to flow here. You can see the village here:

Beleive me, if you are male - you don't want to go there. Or you'll be attacked by grannies shouting "Young Man!" 
It's worse than the Monty Python sketch!
And we don't have any sheep in the river. A fine collection of shopping trolleys, but no sheep.

As any fine river should...
I see what you mean about the village... very worrying

It's too late, BB. You ARE the village plumber. Lady C has inspected your tools apparently. Feel sorry for Big Mad Mr. T. -- he blundered in as you did and has now been appointed sexton and bellringer. I think he had his tools inspected too.

I feel sorry for the tanner, carter and wheelwrights
But luckily the River is safe from all harm, to both fish and young men.

Indeed, so all fish can swim here in safety - we have a fish-friendly policy.
We also have a sheep friendly policy too - so, has anyone seen any sheep so we can help Bo Peep?

Typical isn't it... The minute you find her sheep... She vanishes!

That's women for you. They ask you to do something, and when you do it, do they hang around to say "thanks"? Do they?
Well - you know the answer.
Good job it's peaceful here. Have you got a punt in the boatyard?
The River
Bluebottle Posted Oct 28, 2000
I think we should take a punting trip up and down the river - explore it more.
The River
The Fish Posted Oct 28, 2000
Good plan!
*Trecks off to the Boat Yard.....
...
... sometime later...
... apears on Punt coming up the river, and moors by BB*
How's that?
The River
Bluebottle Posted Oct 29, 2000
Very well - up we go.
First we must go under the bridge - hope no-one's fishing off of it.

Ok... what are we looking for?
