BiLly and his brother Tommy were playing in the garden with their slings. They'd discovered that the holly berries made good pellets for each sling - enough to know when your opponent was hit without actually hurting him badly! One time when Billy tried to dodge one of Tommy's shots, he stepped back and heard a noticeable clunk sound as his foot landed on a corrugated metal sheet. Tommy came over to see what Billy had found. "Should we lift it up to see what's underneath?", he said. They couldn't be sure what to do. Would they get in trouble, would there be something scary underneath, might they get stung? In the end they decided to flunk it and just get on with their game.
