    Breaking News from Copenhagen

    The Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen, the city's most famous monument, has been stolen. Police spokesperson Jens Moller Jensen said it was there yesterday and to be assured investigators will not stop looking for the missing statue. "Returning it to its rightful place is our highest priority" said Jens Moller Jensen with tears streaming down his face. He also noted Interpol has been notified and they will be sending a team of 22 investigators to assist the Copenhagen Police. Eight-year old Pipi Ericson, visiting from Iceland, reported the statue missing. In an interview with the DR-1 news team, Pipi said "My family brought me to Copenhagen just to see the Little Mermaid. I love her. We left our hotel room at 5:30am to see her at sunrise. We got there but she was gone. I cried and called the Police".

    The Little Mermaid, inspired by a character in Danish poet and author Hans Christian Andersen's 1837 fairytale of the same name, is a 175-kilogram (385-pound) statue by Edvard Eriksen. She was commissioned in 1909 by Carl Jacobsen, the son of the founder of the famous Carlsberg brewery, and has been one of Denmark's main tourist attractions since 1913. The statue has been vandalised numerous times over the years, including when the mermaid's head was stolen in 1964 and 1998, as well as when an arm was cut off in 1984. The statue had been repaired after the recoveries of her stolen body parts.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    I've just found out where that rock in the Lake District came from - Mars Don't know how they or what did it?
    I think I'm watching Alien Files Unleashed to much

    I think this image is better than the first with a couple of adjustments I applied in Photo Tool.
