RUNAWAYS

Whatever we did we couldn’t get our old lawnmower to make those nice stripes up and down the lawn so we invested in one of those new robot lawnmowers but we didn’t understand it and in the middle of the night it started up it and after it had mowed the lawn it happily went on to mow all the flowerbeds including the rose garden, the trampoline, the pond and the shed. Before we could sell our old lawnmower for scrap it had run away with a rucksack from next door. I wonder what they’re doing right now. We all want our old lawnmower back and are sad. Next door keep coming round to see if we’ve heard anything but they seem more concerned about what’s in their rucksack than its welfare. I reckon its drugs. I hope our old lawnmower doesn’t get involved in anything like that. I hope our old lawnmower joins the circus.
