There’s something up
the chimney, Dad.
The dog has tried
to sniff it out.
He’s been going
mad all day, Dad.
I gave him
such a clout.
The soot has ruined
the carpet, Dad.
I had to throw
It out.
I raked the ashes
and cinders, Dad,
and frankly,
I found nowt.
The only way to
quieten the dog, Dad,
was to give him
your bottled stout!
There’s something up
the chimney, Dad.
Until it’s found,
I’m not about.
I’m off to stay
with Wilfred, Dad,
until it’s
sorted out.
