This is my 9-year-old Granddaughter's version:
GarfieLd wAs sitting at the dinner table licking his lips with a stripy napkin wrapped around his neck and shiny silverware in his paws. John came in and swiftly held out a plate of steaming hot lasagne while saying, "Voila!" John sat down too, tied a polka-dot napkin round his neck and cut out 2 slices. One was about half of the dish and the other was an average, decent sort of slice. I bet you can guess who's is who's! John struck up a conversation,"Hey Garfield, my fisherman friend, Joe, said he actually caught a shoal of fish. Usually he comes back almost empty handed but yesterday must have been his lucky day. He also said that the little stream next to the one he went fishing in, was aflow thanks to all the heavy rain on Thursday. John glimpsed a look out of the window, and the wind did ablow. A minute later John looked back out the window, where the clouds were turning coaly and grey. After dinner John flicked on the TV and put on a travel show. The travellers were saying they visited the Volga river in Russia - the water was very clear and fresh. John then switched to another channel where an orchestra was performing - it was near the end and had a fugal finale.
This is my version:
Andrew was having a LAzy Sunday afternoon. He was enjoying some fugal music in his headphones whilst he watched a shoal of fish coping effortlessly in the local stream which was now aflow with water following the recent heavy rains. But he started to chill off as the wind rose and fair did ablow. To Andrew's annoyance he only just realised the coaly nature of where he had been sitting and he realised he'd have to wash his trousers tonight so that he could wear them tomorrow for his financial lessons, one of which was to learn all about volga. After lessons, Andrew was keen to unwind by heading to his regular dance lessons. Tonight he was learning the polka which he found was very lively and just what he needed as a contrast to the brain work earlier. He and the rest of the class went back to Angie's place where she heated up a scrumptious moussaka. She came in proudly announcing "Voila", and receiving loads of satisfied "yums", "aaghs" and "oohs" from the group.
