If you liked his other books, you’re sure to love this one. And if you’ve never read any before, now’s a great time to start! So stop reading the back cover and take a look inside – we guarantee that you won’t be disappointed.
Bottom booming Grandmas, exploding teachers, sleepovers with elephants, and dad’s stinky feet are just some of the topics in Supersonic Gran, Conrad’s fourth book of humorous poems for children. Not to mention Super Pig, the pig with superhero powers.
Really need to get rid of our fridge freezer now. Will take £150. Bought for over £500 just over a year ago. Perfect working order - excellent extra for a garage or perfect for the kitchen. Let me know ASAP
On holiday in Northumberland. I’ve found a rather nice writing spot. I also heard a fun tale involving a friend’s little daughter - inspiration hit. Enjoy!
Maisy’s Jumper
Little baby Ivy
Splashing in the bath
Cousin Maisy’s helping
Making Ivy laugh
First she puts some bubbles
High on Ivy’s head
Then a game of peekaboo
Before it’s time for bed
But just as bath time’s ending
Baby Ivy stops
She grunts and groans and pushes hard...
Plop! Plop! Plop!
“Mum!” yells Maisy, “gross! Oh yuck!
Look what Ivy’s done!”
The evidence is floating round -
It’s not a number one!
Ivy shoots a hand out
And grabs a pile of poo
This cute and gorgeous baby knows
Exactly what to do
She throws her missile through the air
Straight at cousin Maisy
It lands on Maisy’s brand new jumper -
Poor girl just goes crazy
“Help!” screams Maisy. “Get it off!
I think I’m going to vom.”
Maisy’s mum comes running in
To see what’s going on
She starts to laugh - she cannot stop -
Tears run down her cheeks
It is by far the funniest thing
That she has seen for weeks
And as for baby Ivy?
She giggles: “Ooh ooh, eee!”
Sits down with satisfaction...
...And fills the bath with wee!
One of my best friends set up a school in Zimbabwe last year. I got this message just now - can anyone help?
Thanks!

We have 3 lovely guinea pigs - Tomato, Sponge and Foxy Mae. But our girls are allergic to them and, since we’ve got Pebbles (our dog) they don’t get much of a look in.
We’ve taken the tough decision to re-home them once we get back off our holidays. But we want them to go somewhere they’ll be loved and looked after.
We have an outdoor cage, cage cover, water bottle along with the guinea pigs themselves. They are lovely pets - never bitey- but just not right for us Burdekins anymore 😞.
If you’re interested, please let us know. We don’t want any money for them - just lots of love.
Thanks!!
Con and Clare
*They live in the garden at ours but can also be housed indoors*
I was back at one of my favourite schools today - High Bank in Liversedge. It was them, remember, for whom we collected all those books earlier in the year. I just LOVE this school. I was reminded once again...
