The Land of Grimney - The Illustrated Adventures of Cora Pearl, aged 12

*SMacca flies in on her Majestic*

*choking on Meadow's last words but daren't say anything*

I am so looking forward to Karina's blessing, Oh & if you need me to make a cake, well you can ask but I'm not sure I will make it probably will buy it instead!

So here we are ma.

*Smiles at Meadow*

Thanks for the lift. Me ma and I are very grateful. Now. I'd best have a long sleep. Wake me in twenty four hours. I'd like a nice fish supper. Ta very much love.

*He takes off his bowler hat and sits down by the fire and falls asleep.*

*Philomena smiles and pulls a blanket over the cat.*

Sleep well little one, I shall get you some fish in the morning.

Now little duchess, you come with me and let your mummy get some rest.

*Menippe kisses Karina and smilles fondly.*

Oh you are a pretty little thing, aren't you? Just like your mother... So you cuddle up to your Aunt Menippe and I shall tell you some mermaid tales of the sea. And soon... Soon little one you shall come to the Dudrassa with me...

*Dave wakes up and strokes the blanket*.

How cozy ma. Real snug.

*He lights a cigar, puts his hat on and looks up at the young women*.

Hello love. I'm Dave. I'm your new cat.

Hello you handsome boy.

*She strokes his chin.*

I've caught you some lovely fish. Where's you mama, or is it just a cat saying?

I'm perfectly well thank you Meadow. Just spending some time with this dear little baby!

*She kisses Menippe.*

She is so pretty.

Hello love.

*Dave giggles*.

Yes, that's rather nice. Tickle me some more. You must be the mermaid. Mrs Sweeney has sent me to live with you.

*He holds out his paw for her to shake it and then looks over Philomena's shoulder*.

Mama is right behind you. Tall cat in a green dress. She's the one in the red wellingtons.

*He purrs*.

Yes. Does the fish come with new potatoes?.

*He waves his paw at Meadow*.

Hello there! It's the dragon lady!

*He looks at Menippe*.

I'm Dave.

Oh hello Menippe I didn't see you there! Philomena is so lucky! I've never known anyone have so many babysitters!

New potatoes Dave? I didn't know cats liked potatoes! Then again I didn't know cats liked cigars either.
