Kiki, for the last time you are not a puffin and under the bed does not class as a burrow.
If I could live here on this secret island always and always and always, and never grow up at all, I would be quite happy

:lol: :oops:

Thanks for reminding me, Anita - I did indeed forget!! :oops:

It was very difficult to choose, but going by chuckle-value, the one that made me smile most was Anita's -

What with seeing bright lights and hearing disembodied voices, Rob wasn't sure that his customary glass of Lucozade would do the trick.

which I would have picked as the winner until she posted -

"Lawks a mussy!" gasped Rob. "I clean forgot to judge the Caption Competition!" :lol:

So either way - Congratulations, Anita! You win! :-D

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

Blimey! First and second prize in one go. That'll take some beating. Does this mean you'll have to put up two captions, Anita? :D
