Twisted Firestarters

It started as a very average Monday. A bit of housework, a bit of reading. Alice has been here all day and Poppy had A BOY over after school!
Alfie and Alice had a little bonfire after dinner to burn Alfie’s schoolbooks. There was a bit of excitement when a young lad came running down the river, closely followed by 2 police officers who wrestled him to the ground, cautioned him and promptly marched him through our garden into a waiting police car in our front drive. It seems the new peace garden in the grounds of the church hall is a hot spot for drug use and dealing. We knew that kids were sitting in there sharing a spliff which didn’t bother us at all. Not so keen on the rest of it though. Alf and Alice were clearly quite shaken by it. At least the vicar won’t be troubled by any of it though. She has the luxury of living over the other side of the village.
