hahaha @Oaktree
The honouring and placing of the sacred wooden spoon painted purple of course
have you any purple paint left @tonys
We need a safe with double combination one for
The Honourable Justice of the Peace, Guardian of this here town and Magistrate... @tonys
The other for our Esteemed Sheriff and newly appointed Town renovator/decorator/artist/ graffitist @LeChuck
The sheriff might not have read the new appointment yet.
As is knee deep in important studies of boundaries ......laugh
Apparently has had to sit through the mind....less hours and repeat the course repeatedly as keeps on failing....
I think that he will need more than a town ceremony...
a town home coming party..
You had better get onto it Ceremonies Manager @Oaktree
Not too quick..
I am still pedalling furiously on my tricycle around this here town leaving sticky notes which keep falling off as they do don't they!!
Oh I have another announcement

Hear ye Hear ye Hear ye
oh that is town crier isn't it not town reporter...
no matter.
hopefully got your attention...
we have our own rules here remember...
So this here town has now been discovered by said Town Reporter who is a super sleuth part-time as well..
It lies on an island of it's own close to Mexique....
Clipperton Island....also known as Clipperton Atoll....and formerly known as Clipperton Rock...
The latter caught my attention and I think that we will go with that...
Now when you read the history..
Yes yes I have set you homework..
I was a school mistress as well....I have been a very busy Lioness....
Read the following anyway in your spare time will help you see the connection:
Clipperton Island (French: La Passion–Clipperton; Spanish: Isla de la Pasión), also known as Clipperton Atoll[4] and previously referred to as Clipperton's Rock,[5] is a 8.9 km2 (3.4 sq mi) uninhabited French coral atoll in the eastern Pacific Ocean. It is 10,677 km (6,634 mi) from Paris, France, 5,400 km (2,900 nmi) from Papeete, Tahiti, and 1,080 km (580 nmi) from Mexico. Clipperton Island is the only French possession in the North Pacific.
The island is an overseas state private property of France under direct authority of the Minister of the Overseas.[6][7] Although the island is French territory, it has no status within the European Union.[8] Ownership of Clipperton Island was disputed in the 19th and early 20th centuries between France and Mexico, but was finally settled through arbitration in 1931; the 'Clipperton Island Case' remains widely studied in international law textbooks.[9][10]
Clipperton has had no permanent inhabitants since 1945. It is visited on occasion by fishermen, French Navy patrols,[11] scientific researchers, film crews, and shipwreck survivors. It has become a popular destination for DX-peditions by amateur radio operators.[12] The island has no known natural resources (its guano having been depleted early in the 20th century). Although 115 species of fish have been identified in nearby waters,[13] the only economic activity in the area is tuna fishing
Note the sections underlined..
Remains widely studied in international law textbooks......any wonder as they are suspicious...
even though
they are under the delusion of the island being uninhabited.
Suits us to the T....They can remain that way.
We have been successful so far in keeping this secret Rock secret.
Perhaps it was a good idea not painting it purple
@tonysif you have repainted all of the signs and posts purple can you repaint them grey please.
Yes there has been another change...surprise surprise...
Follow the trail...
No not breadcrumbs...
Yellow sticky notes...
randomly placed...some fallen off
keep up
All vitally important news is of course encrypted and nobody other than the existing greystonians can read it.
Moreso; anybody else falling upon this thread will not have a clue what it is about as has been apparent amongst it's residents several times already..
Watch the next space

Is there anyone left @Oaktree @LeChuck @tonys
More homework...
groan....
Clipperton Rock is the remains of the island's now extinct volcano;[31] because it includes this rocky remnant, Clipperton is not a true atoll and is sometimes referred to as a 'near-atoll'.[32] The surrounding reef in combination with the weather makes landing on the island difficult and anchoring offshore hazardous for larger ships; in the 1940s American ships reported active problems in this regard.
So we are not even a true atoll ...
We are a near-atoll...
worthy description I feel..
Somewhere I read ...days ago...yes has taken this long...
that there was a famous pirate who captured or visited this island....
Main thing is hard for people to land here....
We also have our own lagoon and have tuna fishing...
