Summary

Description

What a wonderful shot to begin Imperial Week? Fair Head in the background, a flimsy looking jetty with a whole lot of activity in the foreground and a conundrum or two for good measure. Why is the horseless cart stopped halfway along the jetty? Why is there a face off between two cartless horses and what is going on with the ship keeled over and sunk? Virtual sticky buns are promised to all who can provide solutions!
