Thank you - I think........

My sister who lives in Queensland sends over stamps in an envelope for us to pass on to my father-in-law (I hope you're following this, or better still, following this and still awake) and usually, the envelope contains nothing but used stamps.

However, today the envelope arrived with pages 33/34 torn from The Sun Herald. Now I'm a bit confused because there's nothing with a ring around it, highlighted or marked in any way at all. Here are the contents of the 2 pages:

WHEN MYSPACE ENDS IN TEARS

TEASED SO MUCH HE WANTED TO DIE

CHILDREN KNOW THEIR TORMENTORS

RECORD DEMAND FOR WEIGHT-LOSS SURGERY

2009 PREMIER'S SENIORS WEEK GALA CONCERTS (for over 60s)

GET MOBILE IN STYLE (advert for mobility scooters)

VINCE MALONEY SALE (from 9am tomorrow)

Finally, I spotted the one, possibly: WRITER, 77, PUTS HER DREAMS INTO PRINT FOR CAREER BREAKTHROUGH. It is an article whose online writing was spotted by a publisher which led to the release of her first novel. This is good news. That gives me another 32 years to become successful. Or maybe it was the mobility scooters after all .....
