               Barry Bald sat down slowly and scratched


            his thick white beard. Gran was always

            on the top of his head where he didn’t have

            any hair at all.


               “Wait!” Lucy gasped. “I’ve had an idea! Mr

            Snarling might not find somewhere better


            for his leisure centre plans. BUT….”

               Everyone stared at Lucy.
