Mr Gaffer Tape gets some friends

Unfortunately, the original roll of Gaffer Tape had to be sacrificed to the great cause, though of course sticking things to each other is what it was created for, so at least it fulfilled its destiny, if only temporarily.
Good news! Mr Gaffer Tape no. 1 has been replaced by his rightful successor - Mr Gaffer Tape no. 2 (a roll of ordinary silver duct tape), who is now joined by a close relative, Mr Red-and-White Hazard Tape (who might look a bit like the roll in this link).
Watch out for these as you go about your business next week!
Coming soon - many colours of tape. And maybe a chaplain.

When the Plot Thickened

However, all was not lost for Mr Gaffer Tape, for barely had a day passed when some lovely people in that chaplaincy found a use for him again.

For those people were overflowing with creativity, in their desire to keep their dear chaplain. So strong was that desire, that those people did hatch a nefarious scheme...

Luckily for Mr Gaffer Tape, their plan involved 1 Chaplain, 1 roll of gaffer tape and 1 slightly precarious piece of signage...

Origins

So, let's do this properly and start off with the origin story.

Once upon a time, in a chaplaincy not too far from here (not that you know where we are), there was a forlorn beanbag, ripped asunder under the weight of a blond pedant. He swiftly indicated the flaw in its composition, and so repairs were ordered.

The obvious method for repair is, of course, gaffer tape. Gaffer tape being duly acquired, twas applied to the forlorn beanbag and it was soon once again rejoicing among its beany-baggy friends, in their newly-varnished home.

There is, however, a sting in this tale, for the gaffer tape, poor and forsaken as it was, had seen barely any use. It was a sad time for Mr Gaffer Tape.

A sad time indeed.

Something Wicked this Way Comes

Where's Yellow?


Or, more accurately, where will he be?


Only we know. But you will soon...


It's exciting. See you him soon!
