What shall we do?


The diggers were at it again and Grandma Gnomey Gnome was getting more upset by the moment and every so often tears were falling from her old wrinkled face.   She started to remember the morning dew washing her face and the bluebells in the woods near by.  "Come on - cheer up" said Mr, Posh who these days spent most of his time with the lady and her nice man both of whom were also very kind to him.  Mr.Posh unlike the rest of the gnomes was very well behaved and tried to keep his companions in order making sure they didn't reap too much havoc or mayhem.  His twinkling blue eyes endeared him to the lady who kept describing him as cute.  He recalls the day they took him to a charity event and even he misbehaved himself.  It was all the cakes and he just had to creep up and have a look.  He didn't touch as he had weakness for cheese scones, which had been taken behind the counter or he would have nicked one for sure.  "It is time for a meeting Grandma Gnomey Gnome" said Posh  "The noise here is too much and I can't even stand being here now.  Even when I nod off at night I can still hear the noise its deafening" he added.  Grandma Gnomey Gnome nodded in agreement and then said "Grumpy, Cheeky,Silly and Smartypants got it right".
The bells rang out in Gnomesville and there hadn't been such a grand gathering since Mr. Tops had got stuck in the rookery in the woods and they had had to get their pal Owly to go and rescue him.  Luckily he has since been adopted by a lady who is a bit theatrical and is living with her and loving it,  He feels safe now as he was rather worried about getting stuck up there again,. Everyone came to the meeting all the naughty Santa Gnomes, Mr. Penny Lane, Mr.Scruffy, Mr. Fall, Mr.Snowcap, Mr.Summer and the rest.  It went very quiet until Mr.Sparkle said "We all need new homes" and Mr.Penny Lane added "Smartypants, Silly, Grumpy and Cheeky are very happy living with G.W.  Moreover he feeds them "Honey cookies and milk".  They all cheered.  Luckily it was the weekend or they wouldn't have been heard over the sounds above.  "I once had a mince pie" added Mr.Penny Lane.  "It was yummy delicious!!"  "Right" said Mr.Posh "We must now think of a course of action"
