Doodah3While Falcon Boy, Ellis and Bewilder Bird were busy battling the Troublebot, Doodah were having troubles of their own. It was now only minutes before show time and Donny had disappeared.

‘I saw him going out the door and assumed he was going to the toilet,’ said Daphne helpfully. ‘He always goes to the toilet before a show.’

‘Better than during one,’ said Davey, and he started sniggering.

It took a long hard stare from both Daphne and Deirdre to stop him from carrying on this train of thought.

‘Well, he better come back soon,’ said a concerned Daphne. ‘We’re due on stage and we can’t be late.’ She paused for a moment. ‘You know what they say.’

‘Do you?’ said Davey annoyingly.

‘The show must go on.’ Daphne began to sound even more concerned. ‘Does that mean that if Donny doesn’t get back in time that the show will go on without us?’

Deirdre snorted.

‘How could it?’ she said dismissively. ‘We are the show.’

‘Are you?’ said Davey, being annoying again. You would think that she would have known better, but Deirdre foolishly took the bait.

‘Why are you so annoying?’ she asked the annoying Davey.

‘You are,’ he replied annoyingly.

‘No, you are,’ she replied.

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘You are.’

‘No, you are.’

‘Are you?’ came the triumphant response, and with the dogged determination of a patient hunter, Davey’s trap was well and truly sprung.

This is going to run and run if I don’t step in straight away.
