New information has emerged about the post office incident.
Keith's permanent record, Entry 7, states only that Keith "was found in the village, had at some point eaten something that resulted in an incident outside the post office."
Dave has now provided the full account.
Keith escaped on a Wednesday. Keith was in the road for eleven minutes before Dave noticed. Dave drove to the village. Keith was outside the post office. Keith had eaten the contents of a hanging basket mounted to the wall at approximately Keith's head height, which had contained petunias, trailing lobelia, and what Dave describes as "some kind of succulent that the post office gets every year and that Maureen from the post office is particularly attached to."
Maureen was not attached to it by this point. Maureen had opinions about this.
There was also a display board outside the post office advertising the village fete, which had been in a plastic stand at ground level. Keith had not eaten the display board. Keith had, however, moved it. The display board was now approximately four metres from where it had started and leaning against the parish notice board.
Dave could not explain how this had happened.
Keith could not be asked.
Maureen had two further opinions.
Dave apologised. Dave paid for the hanging basket. Dave has not established what Keith was doing with the display board.
Dave's log, Entry 7 addendum, added three weeks later: "I think he moved the board to read it. I don't know why I think this. It just feels consistent."
Keith is back in the village occasionally on Wednesdays.
The hanging basket now has a bracket extension that raises it six inches higher than before.
Keith has been measuring this from the road.
Maureen has been informed.
Maureen has added a second bracket.
