The Museum of Miniature Found Objects is delighted to announce an aquatic exchange with the Tropical Oceanarium in Singapore. Over the next month, a miniature basking shark will be resident in the Palm Court Tea Rooms at the museum, on loan from Singapore. In exchange, Singapore's Oceanarium will host this display by the museum's resident marine expert, Gloria del Marre. Entitled Zona Crepusculi, it depicts the great variety of life beneath the waves, not far from the front steps of the museum itself, in the heart of London.

The Museum of Miniature Found Objects was astonished to learn late last night that Ms Ludmilla Pomodoro, the museum's Keeper of Collections, has been arrested by Interpol. Unbeknown to the museum, Ms Pomodoro was a leading figure on an international gang smuggling stolen miniature artefacts. Interpol confirmed they have been monitoring her movements for some time, after a tip off by a disgruntled curator in Stuttgart.

Above is a still from Interpol's film footage, of Ms Pomodoro making arrangements with an unknown accomplice for the transfer of stolen items from Guatemala City to the Museum of Miniature Found Objects.
