The mystery of the giant stone heads
Police are on the trail of a shadowy figure who has been dumping giant carved stone heads on village doorsteps at dead of night. . . .
First reports of the discarded heads emerged last week when Fiona Gould, who runs the Forresters Arms hotel in Kilburn, found one on her patio. Five more were discovered in other parts of the village. She said: "Some people think it's a curse - but we have no idea who we might have offended. One woman claims there's a link to werewolves."
Each of the foot-high stones had the hand-written rhyme:
Twinkle, twinkle, like a star.
Does love flourish from afar?
taped to it. There was also a symbol on the reverse similar to the religious "chi-rho" sign with letters added which also could spell the word "paradox".
