Flappy sniggered and called out "Yes, you read it right" he turned to John and said " I really don't know what on earth goes through those girls minds" Any way we will soon have to put a stop to all these shenanigans and concentrate on the serious matter of ....... Big Red. And this year some real input is needed

Ah Big Red time again..... Patty thought it was just as well she'd taken the precaution of collecting a few 'must haves'..you never knew what would come in useful..and if they went past Reytavik she could return the err museum piece herself and claim it'd somehow fallen in her handbag.. Patty happily started planning..... meeting must call a meeting....

John was a bit concerned, he had looked in the mirror this morning and thought he had turned into Big Red. !!!
After he had climbed back out from behind the sofa, he realised it was just the effects of a local disease he had contracted (Astinkincold) which gave him the red nose, watery eyes. The overlong white(ish) beard and hair was normal except for the fact it hadn't been combed.
He sighed, was it really coming round to that time of year again? Half the jobs on the "to do during the summer" board were untouched (in fact there were still a couple from the previous summer !!!)
He knew that soon, he would hear the rattle of a trusty rusty tricycle and his old Oppo Flappy would arrive with a folder stuffed with backs of envelopes, covered in hieroglyphics and sketches of improbable anti Big Red weapons. He sighed and re-wrote the weeks order of Gruntfuttocks ..... it was always an expensive time of year

Peter was putting the finishing touches to the Fussion drive in the Super punt, Big Red had been a great help in acquiring the things need from the future that and the sleigh to bring them back. Peter hadnt seen any of the gang over summer as he didnt want them to know that Santa and himself were friends, they had built two of the fussion drives so that Big Red could get his deliveries done quicker, also whilst on their travels they had pick up some great presents for the gang in the hope of stopping the get big red quest!..............................................

Flappy seeing Patty rummaging in her bag was terror stricken! Flappy withdrew to what he felt was a safe distance, he quietly prayed that she would not bring out a "Granný Glad" concoction. The air resounded with a very loud "AHA" as a Patty after much digging and delving brought out a bottle which she waived in the air, "here it is.....Granny Glads Cure All" Next came a blood chilling call, feared by all who had ever come in contact with Doctor Patty. COO-EE, JOHN, GET YOUR BONES OVER HERE, HELP IS AT HAND.

John crouched down inside his"EEHH" (Extreme Emergency Hidey Hole) clutching a kingsized bag of Fishermans friends (to make sure that his hacking cough could not be heard by the searching Patty) The EEHH was a cunning plan given to him by a rather scruffy character that he met on his travels ..... what was his name now ? Baldy ? Balderdash? Anyway whatever his name it was a cunning wheeze. There was a hidden trap in the wall with greasy finger marks around the edges, something sure to be spotted by Patty's hawk eyes. Removing the panel would uncover a small room containing two crates of Patty's favourite Merlot.
The back wall of this hidey hole had a carefully concealed hatch behind which was the EEHH
Cunning indeed !!!

Patty discovered the merlot, and had a quick gurgle of it, then she heard a slight cough, and fast as lightning the merlot was moved and she had John out of his hidey hole in seconds! As he rolled onto his back his nose was grabbed and a dose of grannies medicine was delivered, John was up on his legs and running for the tap in seconds, Patty in the meantime was perusing the merlot and getting ever more furious!! she had discovered it was from her Vinyard so John must have borrowed it.....................

Oops thought Flappy has he overheard a whisper of the conversation that Peter was having with an unknown person. Flappy was not only blessed with flappy shorts but with Flappy ears too Flappy thought "I'm not to happy about the tone of that little chat that Peter was having" "I reckon I should try to find out a bit more, especially as we all seem to be included" I wonder how John is feeling, Granny Glads Cure All has been known to work wonders but....... sometimes it fails miserably but we don't want to think about that.
