All's well here at The Dispatch. The snails have started a round-the-clock watch so that there is always at least two of them awake at a time. We asked why they feel they need to do this and they told us that it needs to be in pairs so that both can vouch for one another. But they never clarified why they set up a watch in the first place, but every now and them we hear murmurings about a mole.
