More stories from Hazel

She keeps on making up new stories. These are the ones that have made it to the Top of the Pops: they each get an airing many times a day.

Drive. Trike fell over. Fell off the trike.
       First day of creche, and she has a traffic accident. I didn't see it, but she tells me that she was on the trike and it "fell over". I think she might have driven it off the edge of the deck (a drop of about a foot).

Mummy burned the toast. Loud alarm.
       Our dang smoke alarm! It's waaay too sensitive. Or maybe I should just stop burning the toast.

Saw Dot and monkey.
        Every second Monday we go to Shake Rattle and Rhyme at the library. Coralie sings songs and the mummies and daddies sing too, and the kids look astonished. A kid called Dot and her mum Sarah often sit near us. Dot brings her monkey, and when Ivy or Hazel steals it, Dot's face falls. Repeat until it's time to go. Poor Dot.
