From: An Buachaill Caol Dubh The cord of my telephone having been broken accidentally, and attempts to splice the four wires together having failed, I eventually had to resort to opening it in an attempt to detach the remainder of the line entirely and then buy a new one. Inside, I found a square package of what seems like soft caramel, sealed in clear plastic. It surely has no connection with the operation of the phone? Does anyione know? |

It's an old assassin's trick to wire a phone and when the assassin makes sure the target is on the line, kaboom. Alternatively, maybe a child/friend has put it there and it really IS a caramel. Either way, it won't hurt the lake. |
