Series 2, Episode VIII


Polly woke up feeling a bit bossy the other day and thought that she and her friends, Pedro and Yuri, would play school. She would be the teacher and they would be the pupils, this despite Pedro being of mature years, not to put too fine a point on it, rather older than she was.

Polly asked Grandpa if she could borrow the washers he had collected, augmented by a very large washer from the Ewell by-pass since the cache noticed at reference 2. The very large washer was for her. She then arranged fifteen of the washers like the desks in a class room and told Pedro and Yuri to pretend to be all the pupils by standing on two of them. And once they were all standing comfortably, Polly could get going, get into her stride.

Baby Bear kept out of the way and tried to snooze.

The project for the day was to be to arrange the remaining washers into piles of five and then to work out how many there were altogether, not counting the one she was standing on and not counting the ones standing for desks. Pedro and Yuri looked a bit blank when Grandpa peeped through the hatch, but he never got to know what happened next. He was too busy worrying about how you might go about counting the stones on a beach, on which more in due course.
