Max Broke The Rules

Max gave me the afternoon off. I spent it stitching and sewing items for the green fair while eating oodles of Carl Cookies (cookies our lovely neighbor Carl bakes). I had a most relaxing time and Max busied himself taking Martha to the park and to feed the ducks. On their return Martha called out that she had a present for me. I got a little excited and then as she handed me a little book I turned it over to discover it was a Thomas The Tank Engine book and she was clutching two others, so mot so much a present for me more three for her! Apparently the trip to Waterstones was a money saving exercise as the books three for two but Max is also the proud owner of a new Mark Kermode book. Tut tut indeed. I shall have to ban him from taking his wallet with him on trips out especially as Martha says they also went in a toy shop!
