The Foxer

Roman was in confessional mood yesterday evening at the Green Man. His tongue loosened by several pints of Old Cloudy, my chief foxer setter finally explained why he and Helen, the defoxing annexe librarian, were no longer together.

During a day trip to Stonehenge, the pair rowed irrevocably about the origins of the bluestones. Roman's ardent belief in Welsh quarries collided head-on with Helen's unshakeable faith in erratic glaciers.

This cryptic collage has a hidden theme.
