Museum of Miniature Found Objects

Horatio Pont, Head of MMFO Global Merchandising, angrily spoke out last night after accusations of fraudulent behaviour appeared on social media. The allegations centred on the mysterious return of the Empress's Tears, the fourteenth-century Byzantine earring. Staff in the museum shop were also accused of collusion in the fraud. As Mr Pont explained to reporters, "My staff do not know who left the package. They simply don't have time to watch everything that goes on in the shop. There's been a surge in till activity since we started retailing the AFAC in kit form." In response to questions, Mr Pont said the MMFO is continuing to seek assistance from the British Museum to identify the traces of jam found at the site. The jam is believed to be connected to the earlier theft of the Byzantine earring.
