this includes a bit of smithy for one of my reviewers. hope you like it
As the dark got thicker so did the rain. Unable to keep the fire going they gave up and had a cold tea of butties (again). Most of the camp was water logged and rain was starting to get inside the tents.
"Adam I don't think we gonna be able to stay here tonight with out getting wet, were gonna have to do something" moaned Gina
"I know, but what?" Adam replied
"We could stay in a hotel." suggested Smithy
"Yeah lets do that, a nice fancy one." Cheered Jo
"Never mind a fancy one it would help if we could find one at all." Informed Gina
"I thought I saw one on the drive out to the lake the other day." Adam explained
"Well how far, we could go there" Smithy asked
"About 30minutes down in the car." Answered Adam
"So if we walk fast we could get there in 1hour maybe a hour and half." worked out smithy
"Well I'm up for it, use's?" Smiled Jo
"Anything to get away from here." agreed Gina
"ok then lets get the troops together." Adam picked up his famous pan and started to bang it.
"Surely not a task now, it's pitch black and I'm soaking." sulked Sam
"Knowing them lot I wouldn't be surprised." winged Eva with her. Everyone steadily came out of there tents and form a circle near the tree on the seats. All huddled together in the dry parts.
"Right listen up everyone, as you can see, this camp is inhabitable for us anymore"
"In what….." Said Ken confused
"We are unable to stay here anymore"
"Oh right"
"The rain has..."
"Just get to the point Adam or it will be morning before we've gone." Hurried Jo.
"Ok, We are going to go and stay in a hotel. So get your stuff together that you'll need cause we gotta walk there"
"There isn't even a hotel round here is there?" Shouted Neil
"We think we saw one on the way to the canoeing task but we'll just have to try"
"Great! And the week just gets better"
"You have 10minutes to get your stuff then were setting off."Everyone went back to there tents to collect there stuff.
Within 15minutes they were set off walking through the muddy fields. Sheelagh had noticed that some of them had there pj's on. The one person she had noticed with then on were Gary.
"So you a fan?" Asked Sheelagh
"What?" Said Gary confused
"Of the incredible hulk, its on your jim-jams"
"No, me mum bought em me for Christmas but I didn't have any others so i figured I had to use these one"
"Are they the glow in the dark version"
"Yes but you have to wear them the other way round. How did you know that"
"My son's got them"
"Which.." Just as he said this smithy trip over a stone on the floor and landed flat on his front in a puddle. The whole of them burst out laughing including smithy.
"Great, bleeding great!" Laughed Smithy sitting up in the puddle
"You look like a duck" Laughed Debbie
"Quack, quack, quack!" Inpersinated Jack They all burst out laughing again. They all started Quacking together. Smithy stood up and moved away from the puddle.
"Yeah, I'm glad you find this funny!" smirked Smithy
"We are too, cause we certainly do." Laughed Amber. Setting off walking again. Smithy slugged behind ringing out his socks. One on the floor and one over Des.
"Great!" Said Des laughing
"You know you would have done the same des!" Laughed Smithy
"Yeah but they seriously stink"
"Do they? I think we need a second opinion on that!" Smithy laughed wiping the sock all over Sheelagh's face.
"Ewww…..yep they stink" cringed Sheelagh. Sheelagh clung to Des hiding behind him from smithy giggling.
"Stay there shee, then he won't get you with them stink bombs. I'll protect you." Laughed Des putting on a pretend super hero voice
"Thanks." Linking Des they carried on walking through the woods.
Smithy put his sock back on and joined the group at the front. It was almost a hour into the walk and Sheelagh was yawning her head off. The only reason she was still stood up was because she was leaning on Des.
"Tired?" asked Des
"Just a bit. I can't go much further." yawned Sheelagh
"Right…." Des picked Sheelagh up and sat her on his back.
"Des…put me down." instructed Sheelagh
"No we gotta catch up to the group and the speed you were going we'd never do it"
"Des.." Sheelagh tried to answer but it was too late she was fast asleep. Snuggled into the warmth of Des's back. Smelling his aftershave she loved so much. Catching up to the group Des passed his and sheelagh's stuff to Reg and Smithy who offered to carry them for him. Within an hour they had reached their destination.
