Me: I can see you all now, Nell. There isn’t much room in that boat, is there?
Nell: Speak a bit louder, please. It’s difficult to hear you over the noise of the speedboat.
Me: Have you got your little earphones in?
Nell: Of course.
Me: You’re almost at Plymouth.
Nell: How do you know?
Me: Look up. Owl Pacino and the Royal Owl Force are following you and one of them is filming.
Nell: Are you watching from the seashore?
Me: I’m at home but I can see the live feed. I wasn’t well yesterday. Something I ate.
Nell: Never mind. I’ll see you soon.
Me: Be careful. It looks like the Beefies are about to attack.
Nell: How did they know we were coming?
Me: Don’t worry. The Royal Owl Force will see them off and Princess and the Navy seals will escort you to shore.
Nell: It’s good to be nearly home.
Me: Sally wants you to know that a fast car will be waiting to take you and Knitwear Wolf home.
Nell; I think I can see it parked by the quay.
Me: Good. If you and Rupert go to it at once, Dave and Harriet will sort the boat out and come on later.
Nell: We’re pulling in now.
Me: Wonderful. Just get to the car as fast as you can. Don’t let anyone stop you.
Nell: We’re nearly there. I can see Lionel waving.
Me: Did you just say Lionel?
Nell: I shall be glad to sit down. A senior lady Labrador should not be expected to run.
Me: I didn’t know Lionel was coming to get you. Sally didn’t mention it.
Nell: We’re in the car. Can’t talk right now. I’ve got the giggles.
Me: What do you mean? I don’t understand. Sorry.
