Beans

[plonq]

The RCMP called last night from Selkirk. They want to take a formal statement from me about the body in the river. When he asked if it was a good night for it, I hesitated and said, "Actually, no. I'm, uh, kinda of tied up canning beans at the moment."

I'm sure I sounded quite convincing on the phone, but I swear it was the truth - I even have photographic evidence.



He's going to come by sometime this evening instead.

I'm not sure how much I can tell him beyond what we told the 911 dispatcher over the phone. I guess the police need it from us directly for the record.

Better vacuum the floors after work.

My pole beans are starting to show up too, but they're a few weeks behind yours. That's some dedicated preserving there... I think I'm just going to blanch mine and freeze them. :P

Anytime there is a suspicious death, the police will generally come for a personal interview, sometimes a couple of times. Because people's memories are fallible, and sometimes they see something that they don't realize is important, so don't mention it the first time they are interviewed, or they just forget to mention it.
