'Any more?' asked Annie.
'Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,' replied Norman. 'Maybe!'
So Annie gave Norman a couple of hugs.
'I've got a never ending supply,' added Annie.
'That's nice to know,' replied Norman.
'So watcha been up to?' said Annie.
'Well,' replied Norman, 'the usual sort of things, eating, sleeping, infiltrating pirate gangs in a desperate attempt to retrieve Queen Phoebe's stolen crown.'
'And the high points so far?' asked Annie.
'We did intercept a sloop full of buns a while back,' replied Norman.
'Did you eat all of them?' asked Annie.
'.........................................Sort of,' replied Norman.
Annie hugged Norman for a while.
'And do they make you work VERY hard?' she asked.
'It's mostly washing things,' replied Norman, 'or blowing on the sails when there's no wind.'
'Trunk work then!' said Annie.
'Mmm,' replied Norman.
And Annie gave Norman 5 regular hugs, 27 mini hugglets and 1 extra large hug with tassels on it.
'And what news of the criminimininminminmial masterminds of which we are all in persuance?'
'Well, 'replied Norman, 'it's strange that you should ask...'
And Norman told all.............................while Annie hugged him.
