Party time

We all went to R’s house. They were having a big party. They have a big house. With lots of trees in their garden.

There was a bouncy castle. It rained. It always does when the bouncy castle turns up.

There was a disco in the barn. I went over. I danced. There was a machine which made bubbles. I was the only one dancing, except for the bubbles. Everyone else was eating or bouncing. There was also a smoke machine. It made smoke like candles. The dance floor was foggy at times. I got worried. My dancing feet went missing. Luckily they came back when the fog cleared.

I was hungry after the dancing. I found the food. The table was my height. I helped myself. Sausages first. Then I spotted the grapes. Nobody else was eating them so I thought I’d better finish them off. Most had gone when D took me away.

Little John was there. He’s stretched a bit since I last saw him. His hair still needs combing. His mum said that he likes to dance. I think she was just saying it. He never went on the dance floor.

I went back to the disco. On the way I saw the trees. They were dancing. I had another quick dance with the bubbles. Then it was cake time. Another birthday cake. But not a proper one. It didn’t have any smarties. And the cake only had a few candles. Yet they have such a big house.

We all sang happy birthday. The others got it wrong at the end. They said R instead of B. And R’s mum forgot to cover the cake with a tea towel.

Everyone had some cake. I had a quick bite. But I had the grapes to finish off.

I had one last dance before home. The eating had finished so there were a lot of dancers. It got a bit dangerous. Too may big people bouncing round. It was time for me to go. The bubbles had left earlier. All the grapes had gone. And the serious dancing was over.
