Oh the fun I had this morning.
For the sixth attempt of trying to stop the teacher from the High School.
He had to stop!
Lets of BOINGs on the otherside of the road.
One blue mini came speeding down the road.
I lowered my big stick right down.

Goes back to the square to have a rabbit with all my friends, totalling 7 including me!
As I didn't go to the coffee morning a few weeks ago.My friends won the 4th prize on the raffle.
It was nice to be given a Cadburys creme egg and my other two friends had some too.
We could have carried on rabbiting for another hour, however it was time for to start my shift.
I thanked them for the egg, and hopefully we see everyone tomorrow.
Now to start.
I had to stop in the middle of the road on the otherside to get the cars to stop.
Two cars had to slam their brakes on at the last minute!
At least I finished in one piece!
Home time.
I had a brew before I started on the tea.
Fried up some turkey mince, with onions and mushrooms. Put it in the oven to cook it some more.

Quick read of the newspaper.
