Hi Dave,

Regarding thinking that sometimes, part of the stories are also in the instructions, I have the following:-

I have just completed “Desk Accessories” commissioned by Goldsmith - no Diary page opened.

Now I have May G saying:

“Explorer was that Goldsmith? I stayed in my car until he left. You see, I’ve done something illegal, although I feel completely justified! I broke into Goldsmith’s office looking for clues as to his whereabouts. After learning what that evil man did to my sister, I decided to take matters into my own hands. Unfortunately, just as I was starting to examine his desk, I heard footsteps and fled. Now I am here to see if you can help. After all you’re able to move in more undetected ways. Find Goldsmith’s briefcase please.”

That briefcase is the first CI of a new quest entitled “Goldsmith’s Office” commissioned by May G.

Dave, for your info, Goldsmith forced May G’s sister Amanda, who is an artist, to forge paintings for him to sell - My Diary Page 221 which reads:

“Talented Forger”

May G’s visit shed light on many strange circumstances relating to Amanda. Due to stupidity and financial difficulties, May G’s sister fell in with a young man who promised her a glorious future. She began working in the world of forgers. Having been part of the criminal community, Amanda realised that this path would lead to no good and decided to quit. But her associate, Goldsmith, had a different opinion. He deprived her of everything: name, documents, friends. For a while Amanda became a shadow.”

Thank goodness I can still write shorthand!

I might see whether I can follow this story for you.
