From the Private Files of Scotland Yard Commissioner Rushworth Ramsgate - Part 21:

A Woman of Mystery...


While ensconced on the escarpments of the clock tower, Lady Dorrington, left a five-pound note secured to one of the clock's huge hands. As her ascent remains a secret, the eventual discovery of the fiver by workmen when the clock is next cleaned will create a mystery. The  precise opposite of Lady Dorrington's usual riddle solving modus operandi.

As to solving the mystery of the found money...  my lips are sealed.

From the Private Files of Scotland Yard Commissioner Rushworth Ramsgate - Part 20:

Never Wager with a Woman...
 

Tasha never ceases to amaze me. When she claimed that she could scale any structure in London, I scoffed and said in jest, "Why don't you climb Big Ben!" She asked, "Day or night?" I replied, "night,"  never dreaming she'd consider the wager genuine. I now owe her dinner at Simpsons...  perhaps not a bad bargain at that.
