Mystery Crusher: Who Done It? – Detective Wanted
We have noticed, over the last few weeks that someone with small hands has been crushing the paper drinking cups we have on the table in the bathroom. So far, we have lost about 23 paper cups to the Mystery Crusher. Solving this is going to require some keen detective work. If you would like to take on this challenge, please let us know, we could use your help!
