'And she's quite sure that she can fit into it?' asked Captain Bill.
'She's says she'll manage,' replied Norma,'and you know Bertha, she tends to manage.'
'True,' said Captain Bill.
'And it might be best not to mention anything about size,' added Norma.
'Very true!,' said Captain Bill.
'And I've said that I'll help her make the changes to the Mootilus,' continued Norma,'which does only leave Annie and the shrimps doing the knitting but they'll cope.
'Right!' said Captain Bill.
'So all in all it's not coming along too badly,' said Norma,'we should be ready to go by the end of next week. I know it's going to be a little cramped but it'll work.'
'Actually,' said Captain Bill,'I've been thinking about that. I've come up with an idea that'll give everyone a bit more room and save on the storage space.'
'Brilliant!' mooed Norma.'What is it?'
'I'm not going!' replied Captain Bill.
And Norma thought she might cry.
