In the AfTErnoon, the death of Ollie's pet rabbit, Alfie, brought a sombre tone to the household. After dinner the family went up onto the heath to bury Alfie. The next day the newspaper had a story about an unexplained spate of pet rabbit deaths so Ollie concluded that his Alfie was one of the victims. Ollie's Mum & Dad took him on a mystery treat outing to take his mind off his loss. They travelled in the car, but for the last mile Ollie had to wear a shade so that the destination was a surprise. When Ollie got out of the car and took off his shade he found he was at a heritage steam railway station. He had been booked to ride on the footplate as an apprentice fireman. He had to work hard and lots of sweat built up on his forehead. He was ecstatic about the experience and couldn't wait to tell his schoolmates about it next morning.
