“Somebody used a fence and some pieces of cloth to “write” the sentence “It will all be OK” on a fence in Wellington.”
“Now it was changed to “You are doing OK”. What will come next?”
Another masterpiece from the sensational Kristina D.C. Hoeppner. This time starring the typeface “Fence Sans Serif“ and documenting a message from a higher entidy.

And as long as you clean the probes. ALWAYS CLEAN the probes!
