Kidnap ? "Alone and forlorn it stood Forsaken by friend and foe alike And nought were they who would care to look Upon its interior blank and void And empty like Most petrol tanks etc." The above lines Avritten by Tennyson or .somebody (we're not sure about the last line) amply describe a strange sight witnessed in the Strand on Friday. A pram (a nice one too) was standing alone and forlorn etc. (see above) and neither the occupant nor the owner-driver was around. We have suspicions that someone may have pulled off a kidnap and are Avaiting for further particulars before 'splashing' the story.
