'Take them away!' Queen Phoebe commanded and she waved in a regal fashion as Flossie and Lefty, led by Norman and several palace guards, marched off along the beach.
'It's so sad that they can't seem to change their evil pirate type ways,' Norma sighed.
'Possibly,' Queen Phoebe replied, 'but One had them bang to rights and no mistake so it's a ten year stretch at His Kingshipfulness's pleasure I'm afraid.
'But are you not concerned about their threat of legal action from injuries sustained due to the absence of an 'andrail?' Camille asked.
'One has already taken the precaution of employing a top notch legal team,' Queen Phoebe replied. 'One has been assured it will be dealt with in next to no time.'
Norma experienced a sudden sinking feeling.
'Has it been suggested they be paid in food?' she asked.
'As it happens,' Queen Phoebe replied.
Norma wondered if she should say something but decided not to. Instead she asked Queen Phoebe if they could stay awhile.
'Even though there isn't a film being made anymore,' she added. 'It would be nice to have a holiday and I think Captain Bill needs time to recover.'
'In ma opinion 'e is getting used to it,' Camille said. ''e is far less bruised than last time.'
'I think landing in soft sand helped,' Norma mooed.
And everyone agreed that it did.
And Queen Phoebe said that of course everyone was welcome to stay for as long as they liked and besides while Geraldine was here she needed to talk to her about a quote for putting in double glazing at the castle.
