In Search of Oldton



Since we are already talking about fairly far-fetched Oldton theories, let's deal with the traditional alien abduction issue.

There will always be people who believe that marauding aliens in flying saucers took all the citizens of Oldton away, one by one, for experimentation and/or breeding on another planet.

I maintain a healthy scepticism, but people like Des and Paul have mailed me news story after news story about sightings (especially in the East Anglian region near Oulton).

To be honest, I'm beginning to warm to the idea that my dad might be alive and well, and looking down on me from somewhere in the heavens.
