Dear readers - this will be my last book - I have run out of ideas.

I do wish that blackbird/robin/curlew would shut up, I'm sick of its song.

Shame it isn't raining, this sun just increases the pollen count and I sneeze so much I can't see.

"Oh golly", groaned *****, "I do hope the next village has some toilets, I'm absolutely busting".

"Owww!" howled ****. "Blasted nettles everywhere"...

There, fixed that typo for you... :wink:

If that's the story I think it is, then thanks to Timmy, the Five ended up getting a good tea anyway. So perhaps:

"No thanks, I'll skip lunch/dinner/tea/supper", said ****, "It does look good but I'm still full from breakfast/lunch/tea".

Or (worse?) - "Thanks but **** said last week I looked a bit podgy, so I'm on a diet"...
