Just goes to show you really don't know people. Murders on the island are extremely rare but there was not far from here a couple of months ago. Police have arrested four suspects - two are a couple who offered my daughter a job after she went to their stables to ride a friend's horse. She decided against taking up the offer. Bullet dodged. ?

Travis, yup. Anglesey. The murder made the national news - a retired lecturer fixing a problem with his satellite dish was hit by a crossbow bolt. I always suspected it was a setup because what was he doing on his roof at midnight? What's been said is that someone cut the cable to his dish, forcing him to go outside to investigate. Off the top of my head, I can only think of two murder cases on the island in my lifetime, and I think one of those may have been downgraded as manslaughter. The most infamous one was when we had a serial killer on the loose in the 90s - he was gay cinema owner from another part of Wales.

So you're only having a handful of murderers, but when you do those are worthy of an Agatha Christie novel. Not the usual mob shootings, but people killing using crossbows and ... sorry, but it sounded so absurd that I laughed out loud ... gay cinema owners who elsewhere would be the victims but at your place are the villains.
