Tanzi was overjoyed to see her husband again until he told her that he'd have to go back up North on the morrow to finish installing the last twenty five computers in the new insurance company.Re: Continue the Story.
An hour later Tanzi was being questioned by police Sgt Lawson. "Mrs Wellington we take this type of harassment very seriously. But the simple fact is we have no proof it was done by your gypsy visitor. All we can do is monitor the gypsy camp and question those leaving it."Re: Continue the Story.
After thanking Sgt Lawson and showing him out of the back door, Tanzi phoned Guy and, in a tearful voice told him what had happened.Re: Continue the Story.
It was Sgt Lawson. Mrs Wellington a man fitting your description was seen leaving the camp 20 minutes ago. I have men round the back and one watching your front door. I will stay here with you until the coast is clear. At that moment a shot rang out from behind Tanzis house........Re: Continue the Story.
Sgt Lawson jumped up, turned to Tanzi saying,"Don't be frightend Mrs Wellington we had word that this traveller is armed and dangerous but you'll be perfectly safe just as long as you stay inside.Lock the door after I've gone"Re: Continue the Story.
For the first time in several days Tanzi slept soundly. It had been a traumatic time for the young housewife. This man menacing her and Guy being away. The next morning Sgt Lawson told Tanzi that one of his constables had been shot by the Romany assailant but that the wound was not life threatening. "Sgt Lawson I hope you are going to move this camp out of our county now as these Romany people are very family oriented and with this man in custody his kin may look for revenge on myself or my husband."Re: Continue the Story.
Sgt Lawson shook his head,"I'm afraid moving the travellers on from Common Ground requires a Court Order from the local council which may take a little time."Tanzi looked rather taken aback,"Oh dear I thought they'd be gone by tomorrow" The sergeant smiled regretfully at her and said,"Now don't you go worrying yourself Mrs Wellington, the police are here to protect you, any problems with anyone from the camp, then just ring this number", and he handed Tanzi a card with the nunber to his direct line on. He then took his leave.Re: Continue the Story.
