TALKING OF SPRING

" Do you think Dad will ever fill that hole in? "
" Probably not.. well not until he redecorates!"
"Oh it would be lovely to have another colour here!"
"I like the blue "
"So do I but it's been there a long time now"

" I think we'll have to wait until Mum gets her new studio to get a change of colour " says Saffron
" Goodness! that will be ages yet! " sighs Sansa " But maybe we could just do this little tiny piece of the wall? "

Ashley joins them " We could do with a higher ceiling!" everyone looks up"
" and a white one" agrees Sansa
" Don't think that will be happening here!" Saffron answers.

Wren comes in and places some flowers in the middle of the floor " Some flowers would be an improvement "
The others agree "It won't hurt for this floor to be sanded and re polished " mutters Ashley
"Yes and maybe a new rug? " says Sansa starting to get excited " and some new cushions! "
Soon the girls are all talking excitedly about the improvements that could be made to their living room.

"There's a lot of noise coming from in here " says Mum walking into the room
Silence... " Am I interrupting? " asks mum bemused by the surprised looks on all their faces.

Four voices clash as they say no, just chilling ,I must go see Percy , how are you mum can I make you a cup of tea!

Mum looks suspicious then says " Percy's in the workshop with Dad and i'd love a cup of tea thank you "
as they start to walk off, Saffron links arms with mum and says " We were thinking it was time for a new look when the studio comes " seeing mum's listening she carries on " and best not to wait until last minute.. we could start now...change the cushions..."

The others start adding their voices to Saffron's but I couldn't quite hear everything as they vanish down the hallway.....
