The little crutches go on the rampage

Of course, the little crutches weren't good at all.

Tata and Leonard were out for a very long time. And although the little crutches didn't start off intending to be naughty, they began to get bored.

They started knocking things over in the cupboard (they shared it with lots of other things, such as boots and wellingtons). They bounded around, they laughed and joked and generally became quite giddy.

Then they started knocking things off shelves. Hahahahaha. Oh, this was such fun. Anything standing upright on the floor was toppled over.

The normally tidy store cupboard was looking like a devastation zone. The little crutches were laughing themselves silly.

Leonard was of course, a Tidy Person, and liked everything to be neatly fell into its place.

Suddenly the little crutches realised what a mess they had made of the cupboard. And they couldn't put anything back either. They couldn't lift things back onto the shelves and they couldn't right the things they had pushed over.

Even worse, they had knocked a plant pot off the windowsill. The plant was on the floor, soil was all around, and the pot was in pieces.

The little crutches looked at each other in horror.

Leonard had set out in such a good mood, but what on earth was he going to say when he returned?

Little Crutches left to their own devices will always cause havoc, for that is the way of the world with Little Crutches.

I hope the plant pot gets a post out of this debacle!!

the plant pot could even have its own blog, Plant Pots are Us.
