Yesterday was a strange day and today does not look as if it is going to be much better. I was woken up at some ungodly hour of the morning (7:00 give or take) by someone from Radio 5 Live who wanted to interview me about the yeti.
"Why?" I asked, and it turned out to be in connection with a Russian conmference and expedition. Various bits of the BBC phoned me at intervals throughout the day, and again this morning, and each time I gave a non-committal interview saying that I knew next to nothing about the project and wished them well.
Then I got a disturbing phone call from Lars Thomas.
Lars had a strange phone call from someone going by the name of John yesterday. Apparently this chap claimed to be from a production company making a documentary about the ‘tricks and humbug’ of the world of cryptozoology, including the CFZ. After speaking to Lars – who told him to do something drastic with himself physically – he threatened Lars to face the consequences if he were to break silence about the call. The caller’s number was ‘withheld’, and that, along with the threat, would seem to indicate that chicanery is afoot.
Let's hope today shapes up to be better, but having been woken again by the BBC World Service at an ungodly hour, I think that this is highly unlikely.
