"Harold, Harold dear," Mrs Lockwood called from the kitchen.
"Yes mother,"Harold replied.
"Where is the ration book, I'm going to get you and our Elsie some sweeties."Mrs Lockwood questioned.
"I gave it to you mother when I came in from the butcher's shop.
"No you didn't,"Auntie Mabel said.
"Then that must mean that...we've lost it!!"Harold whispered.Auntie Mabel picked up the carpet beater, but she didn't use it as a carpet beater she used it as a ...Harold beater!!
