The wanderer returns - missing scarecrow's bizarre journey back to Starbeck
"Who would do such a thing?" They cried. And it was all for a good cause as well! - To celebrate Starbeck in Bloom's 20th anniversary.

A fun tweet from Starbeck in Bloom reads: "Glad you didn't want ransom! Solved a mystery, but how did she travel by bus or car!"
"Abducted from outside Starbeck Library Saturday night - now been returned from Boroughbridge Police station."
