I'll pass on the instructions for the Toys to Peacock, he can study it and then show you all what to do. I'm sure he'll enjoy that.

Good luck everybody! You'll all do very well!

Thank you Mr. Grace!

Well that's not too bad is it Mr. Grainger. We did well in toys the last time he had us switch. Remember you had fun playing with your trains.

Thank you Mr. Grace!

I hope he does not expect me to wear that ridiculous propeller hat like he did last time. I'm warning you now Mr. Rumbold that I refuse to wear that silly object!

Thank you Mr. Grace!

Captain Peacock, I'm sure that whatever Young Mr. Grace has for us to do in Toys will be appropriate for your department. I will not have this militant attitude to deal with again.

hello, hello...I'll get to play with me wind up toys again, and me tanks. Hey! < light slap against Mr. Humphries arm> You'll get to play with your wibbly wobblys again Mr. Humphries. <grins big>. I wonder if they got any new items in this season?

Mr. Lucas I hope you weren't eavesdropping at the door again!

Gather round everybody I have some news to tell you. Mr. Humphries are you free? Mr. Lucas as I observe is free.

Young Mr. Grace is going to have us switch departments with Toys for a whole week instead of just one day.

Now we should all try to get some sleep after the excitement of the night. Everyone back to your tents.

In an aside to Mrs. Slocumbe, I'm ready for that nip of something if you are.

Certainly Captain Peacock. I'm ready for one myself after all this excitement. I've secreted it in a perfume bottle but I've kept it with me this time so it doesn't get confused with the other bottles on me counter. Lets remove ourselves to the Ladies stock room and I'll give you a couple of squirts.

Oh very well Mr. Lucas you weren't eavesdropping. I for one would like to be able to try to get some sleep tonight with whatever time is left.

(Just learn that Trevor Bannister aka Young Mr Lucas passed away Thursday. I myself lost my ex-husband on wednesday. I will not be on for awhile due to losing my men. Sounds silly, but I loved, LOVED these two!)

I understand. Come back when you're ready! Will postpone the game for a week in Mr. Bannister's memory.
