Oh!
Oe!
What horrible vision is this?! What terrible prediction of future calamitey! M80s, I couldn’t help myself, I had a little look into the Account that the ghost of Christmas Past left here! I don’t know why he left it or where he’s gone, but it certainly does tell the future! It tells a really horrible future, full of suffering and fear! just this little glimpse of it has jittered my fritters and no mistake!!
What could ever cause things like that to happen?? We must avoid this terrible fate somehow!
ok well let’s see what’s going on in the workshop today.
Well, Salteye and Pilky seem to be settling into their rolls as father and son. Salteye has bought a mattress for Pilky’s room, but it doesn’t fit between the cupboards! So Salteye has got a chainsaw and just sawed off the side of the mattress to make it fit.
“I don’t know about this,” go Pilky.
“Arr, it’ll be foine,” say Salteye. “You moight roll to the edge a bit, but the weight of the blankets’ll keep yer in.”
That’s good enough for Pilky. He shrug and get on the bed, and sure enough he roll straight off the side.
“That’s a bit weird, innit,” say Pilky. “You think – anything, you can sort of trim anything, can’t yer, and it normally works. It’s amazing how much of a difference it makes just sawing off a bit of the mattress.”
“See, that’s why Oi’ve gaffer-taped and stapled up the cut edge. Wouldn’t want the springs to scratch me boy on the way down.”
I wouldn’t want to splee on that, but Pilky seems like he’s not too bothered.
“I just wish I could get me boiler sorted out,” he mumble, and get in bed.
Let’s go and see what Dooley’s up to. I wonder if he found that Tray Guard yet.
