"HAARROOOLD,"Mrs Lockwood shouted. Harold was cowering away in a corner.
"I think you need to go and look EVERYWHERE my lad, don't you?" Mrs Lockwood said, looking straight at Harold. Harold looked under the chairs, in the chairs, in the cupboards. When... Harold and Elsie's father, Fred came home.
"Hi I'm home," called Fred from the back door. No answer. Fred walked into the kitchen to find Elsie, Harold and Mrs Lockwood searching everywhere.
"What are you doing?"asked Fred puzzled.
"Looking for the food that we have,"Mrs Lockwood said in between looking in the plant pot.
"Excuse me?" said Fred pulling a face.
"Our Harold has lost the Ration Book!!"shouted Auntie Mabel .
"Calm down Mabel," Fred said reassuringly.
