Detective Susan Poirot

Background: Today everyone in the office ate fish and chips for lunch including Susan. Actually I didn't eat fish and chips- instead my dinner was a salmon pate sandwich.

Susan couldn't finish hers so she left the remaining cod wrapped in the paper that it was served in, and left it on her desk.

The Time: 1500 hours

The Place: sitting at her desk

The Comment: (smelling the air) "has someone been eating fish?"

I'll understand if you don't believe me on this one, but I assure you it is utterly true. The only way that question could have been any more absurd is if the fish was stapled to her face. And she was a fish herself.
