Chapter 8

SpDotty, Timmy and Tony were trotting along and the mood was very glum.

"I'm glum." Said Timmy.

"Yeah me too." Said SpDotty

"And me." Said Tony.

"Did you even KNOW Sparky????"

"Errrrr, mebbe..."

Just then, they heard the ol' thump thump of Tony's dear ol' ma.

"Tony!!!! My son!!!! C'mere and give your ma a big hug!!!!"

They struggled for a few minutes but failed to wrap their arms around each other, so settled with banging stomachs.

"Where're you going????"

"To the visitor centre, ma, look I got friends!!!!"

"No you haven't" Timmy and SpDotty corrected him at exactly the same time.

"Well near enough."

"Hey PAM, have you still got Spotty????"

"Spotty???? What the freak who kept on falling over????"

They nodded.

"Oh no, he got eaten by a bay bird."

"Great. That's a brother and a cousin I've lost..." SpDotty burst into tears."

Timmy comforted him while Pam talked to Tony.

"Have you seen your father around???? I need to talk to him."

"No mum, he ran away. He's hurting badly but he won't admit it."

"Grrrr that stupid dinosaur!!!! Why can't he show his feelings!!!! Always trying to act hard and KILLING THE COOL PEOPLE!!!!"

"I know mum it's terrible."

"We better get going Tony." Timmy called.

"The humans are in a shack in the middle of a tree you know."

"Oh cool, we'll go there then."

And off they went, cos I like the phrase off they went.
