- but everything else we know about the place comes from Beardy Ardagh town resident & author of these tales. As Beardy Ardagh reports when the local lighthouse is plunged into darkness & a ship runs aground
- flattening The Rusty Dolphin
- it's hard to imagine things can get much worse in Grubtown. But then there's a jail-break & the Police Department (all three of them) need all the help they can get from the (often bonkers) townsfolk. No wonder more trouble is waiting just around the corner.
