Me: We live in a beautiful part of the world.
Nell: We do.
Me: I love it here so much. It’s very hard to accept we’re going to have to move soon.
Nell: I think you’ll feel better when we know where we’re going.
Me: I really hope we can get that little bungalow.
Nell: So, do I.
Me: We just need someone to buy our house.
Nell: They will. Try not to worry. Now, we need to talk about The Cat and Stephen Seagull.
Me: Oh yes. I noticed he wasn’t in the kitchen so The Cat must have told him his help was no longer needed.
Nell: It did.
Me: I hope it told him sensitively. I know Stephen is a baddie but baddies still have feelings and his food was delicious.
Nell: It didn’t.
Me: Didn’t what?
Nell: Do it sensitively.
Me: What did it say?
Nell: It pointed at him and said, ‘You’re fired!’
Me: Oh dear. That’s a bit harsh.
Nell: It’s dreadfully rude.
Me: What did Stephen say?
Nell: Nothing. Not even when The Cat said a car was waiting for him outside.
Me: Was it?
Nell: No, but that’s not the point.
Me: Of course not. I just wondered how he got home with his little wheelie case.
Nell: He’s a seagull. He has wings. And he doesn’t have a wheelie case. Good grief.
Me: Oh yes.
Nell: The Cat is not Lord Sugar, even if it thinks it is.
Me: No.
Nell: There are going to be repercussions.
Me: Are the Beefies very angry?
Nell: Walter Pigeon says word on the wing is that the Beefies are gathering.
Me: The Cat should probably lie low until they calm down.
Nell: We should all lie low, if you ask me.
Me: Yes. Sorry.
