Chapter 2

"Right. Let's make a list of everything we need to buy." Naboo said, insistent on bringing organisation into it. Howard, Vince, Naboo, and Bollo were sitting on the sofa, trying to work out what to do. They were all still in their pyjamas, because Howard had insisted that they sorted out what to do there and then, instead of going back to bed. Howard was still holding Catherine, who was fast asleep.

An hour later, they had compiled a list. It read:

Clothes

Shoes

Socks

Pyjamas

Nappies

Changing mat

Baby wipes

Cotton wool

Baby shampoo

Baby bubble bath

"Do we really need all that?" asked Vince.

"And more." Naboo said. "Look, I wouldn't normally do this, but here's my credit card. It's got shaman magic in it. No limits, no bills, it's brilliant! You'll be able to buy everything you need."

"Cheers, Naboo, that's genius!" Vince exclaimed.

"There is one condition, though." Naboo said seriously.

Vince's face drained. "What?"

"Howard's in charge of it." Naboo's face broke out into a grin. Vince scowled at him.
