Mummy. I made a pit for Mr. V.
Oh! What kind of pit?
A pit for him to fall into. More like a trap, really. I put mud and water in it and then covered it with leaves so he would step into it without knowing it was a pit.
Oh, dear. Did he fall in?
No. He wasn’t on yard duty that day.
Oh, good. Out of curiosity, why did you make this pit?
To catch Mr. V! I want to keep him as a pet.
