996 - PESKY

This is my 9-year-old Granddaughter's version:

Fox and his family wEre in their garden and Father fox had just shooed away a pesky magpie from eating their fresh strawberries. In their flower bed there was a beautiful scene of bright red tomatoes, glowing green leeks, the plump strawberries, sticks of sweetcorn, a few baby cabbages, an apple tree, a blueberry bush and a raspberry bush. The garden was really messy since Father fox was very busy and didn't have time to tidy up after the gardening.

This is my version:

ConstantinE arranged for his neighbour to keep an eye out for his cats and to provide some food and water for them whilst he was on holiday. Constantine had a lovely holiday in Venice and arrived back home feeling quite relaxed and cheerful. That is, until he walked through his front door. The scene that met him changed his mood instantly. There was a distinct odour in his hallway. The lounge was so messy that he didn't know which parts were worst. Somehow the cats knew they were in trouble and didn't come to greet him. Constantine was straight on the phone to a house cleaning agency. "Whilst I was on holiday my pesky cats have made a proper mess of my house. Can I book you to clear up as best you can as soon as possible please", he said on the phone. After finishing that he put his hat and coat on and went out for the afternoon.
