We cannot let the season pass without expressing our heartfelt thanks to Augustus Scadthrop, inventor of the Selocator, the device for finding the end of a reel of self-adhesive tape.
Without this useful appliance, many tempers would be irreparably frayed, minds unhinged and the task of wrapping Christmas presents would become sheer drudgery.
-Maurice Packham, Station Road, Horsham
