They were all tired and what had seemed like a great idea , now felt not so.
Suddenly someone appeared out of the darkness " Is that you Santa? " asked Lucas in a worried voice.
"No" Said the person moving forward " It's not Santa ! I don't think Santa will be visiting here tonight, do you? "
"WHAT!" cries Mossy, tears gathering in his eyes " No Santa? "
"But Ben I was just being a king for Jesus time!" gulps Lucas also looking tearful
" I can see that but you took these camels from the zoo without permission !"
Lucas replies in a tearful voice " But I left them a note and all my pocket moneys !"
Edward collapses in relief ! maybe he won't have to go to prison after all !
Taking hold of the reigns Ben starts leading Lucas towards the garden, so that the camel's could be sheltered for the night.
"Lucky for you , they found the money and the note and after calling Dad, he smoothed it all over with a donation and a promise that you'd not do it again " said Ben " Oh and in the summer Dad's taking you to the zoo, where you have to help clean out the camels every Sunday for a month.
" Clean out them's poop! " says Lucas wrinkling up his nose in distaste , then yawning " That's not fair "
"Yes It is " says Ben then smiling gently continues " I'll come and help you, so don't worry "
"I love you Ben " says Lucas tiredly
" I love you too Lukey " grins Ben " Merry Christmas Imp "
"Merry Christmas Ben "

Thanks for this great story involving Lucas the scamp - I'm impressed with those camels.
ReplyDeleteYour welcome :) I just could not resist them as soon as I saw them.. :)
DeleteI expect they'll be back..
Wonderful to see the three kings safely home in time for Christmas. Ben is such a good brother to Lucas to so nicely explain the results of Lucas' actuons. Shoveling camel poop sure beats prison! A great story and that large camel's expression is just so wonderful. Nice! Merry Christmas Dee! :) xxx
ReplyDeleteI'm glad they made it in time, it was touch and go for a while! :)
DeleteBen is the best of brothers :) I could not resist that big camel because he looks so full of character ! Merry Christmas :)xxx
So you just done a borrow, or did you done a buying of camels, Lukey?
ReplyDeleteYou going to keep them? or they got to go back to the zoo and you still have to shovel up poopy stuff too? That not fair!
We got little camel called HodshmakakaH and his story book but we not find him this year, he hiding. Anyway, he LITTLE so never been riding on a camel. Like your one. What his name?

I did leave all my's money Connor! £1 and seventy four pence and I left a lovely muffin that I had only had a tinee tiny bite of and my last TWO rolo's ! And they still saying i's got to shovel them camels poops!
