Picture taken through eyepiece of a ViewMaster, of Swiss (possibly Austrian on holiday) cow. But that’s a potential vacation for another time [sell more Mettler, dammit]. Tomorrow begins happy holidaymaking for Swiss Family thehandoftamm. The Nat. Lampoon Truckster is a-packed in anticipation of Apple-picking. Mrs thehandoftamm has successfully negotiated a most unfair money-losing scheme for our hotel and your correspondent intends to squander those savings at the public house or on the ponies at Meadowlands. The plan cannot fail. Updates to follow.

What’s all this mooing? We’ll have no trouble here!
