. . . earlier today in the Thatched Cottage Garden . . .

What’s that orange thing over there, Petunia?

I don’t know, Marmaduke. Maybe it has been sent here by a vastly superior intelligence from a galaxy far, far away.

Either that or the local supermarket’s delivery service has got the order wrong again!

Well, whatever it is, and where ever it has come from, it’s very big and very orange!

Here comes Fairy – she will be sure to know. She knows everything. I know she knows everything because she told me she does.

Now then you young mousy type mice. What’s happening?

There has been a sudden outbreak of strange, unexplained giant cuddle cup type things? Ooooh, sounds interesting.

Now then, where might these unexpected dollops of comfort be hiding themselves exactly?

I’m sitting on one?!

Yes, of course. I knew that.

Well let me see? This one is giant, and orange, very comfy and has an artistic green bit at one end.

It looks to me as if yours is triangular, and yellow, very comfy with an artistic ‘nibble’ taken out of one side.

Now let me examine all the evidence. Err . . . no idea!

Oh, just a minute, did you say you spotted the Postman staggering up the path with a huge parcel that had been sent all the way from America?

Oh of course, silly me – they are fabulous ‘designer’ chairs, made especially for us by Jens Custom Crafts! Yours is the all new patented Cheese-Chair, and mine is the Carroty-Comfort-Cushion.

Thanks Jen, they have been awarded my special ‘Approved by Fairy’ accolade.
