There is such a thing as having manners you know...

Peggy Sue thought she would give Alice and Owen a tea party today.

Miss Prim thought she would take advantage of this play...


by showing Peggy Sue how to make a 'proper' cup of tea as she calls it.


Peggy Sue listens intently...


as Miss Prim demonstrates what to do.


There's a good girl, Peggy Sue, that cup of tea should be just perfect.  Miss Prim wanders off thinking her job is done...

Phew! thinks Peggy Sue.  She's gone!
 

Peggy Sue drags a chair over to sit on and then starts to eat a strawberry tart.


Yummy!  She says as she starts to eat, when all of a sudden, she is distracted by a terrible sound, a bit like a strangled cat


What ARE you doing Peggy Sue?  Exclaims Miss Prim.


You are supposed to be eating your sandwich first!  Miss Prim tells Peggy Sue as she points over to the plate with the sandwich on it.

Peggy Sue glances over to the sandwich.


But I want to eat my strawberry tart first, like Owen is.  She tells Miss Prim, as she carries on eating her tart.

Miss Prim sighs with exasperation and walks off muttering to herself about the need for good manners.

A little while later Peggy Sue can be found reading a book of nursery rhymes.




This is a sweet little set of four books I found in the CS today when I popped down the road to post some letters.


Just perfect for Peggy Sue.

Miss Prim arrives...



Oh dear, who do we have here?

Meet Miss Prim...


Hello dear, I am your new Governess, Miss Prim.

Who? Miss Prim?  What's a Governess?


Well dear, it has been decided that I am needed.

What does she mean by that?  Whispers Owen to Peggy Sue's rag doll.

Peggy Sue looks equally bemused...

Later on...




I don't want to eat a sandwich, I just want to eat cake!  Peggy Sue tells Owen Bear.


Excuse me dear, but you can't have cake until you have eaten your sandwich!

(That's precisely what I am here for)  Miss Prim says to herself as she watches Peggy Sue eat her sandwich.


Peggy Sue eats her sandwich like a good girl.  Miss Prim wanders off to get the a cake for her.


Look here she comes, whispers Owen Bear.

Here you are dear, says Miss Prim as she hands the plate with the strawberry tart on it over to Peggy Sue.


Peggy Sue looks down at the tart as Owen Bear tugs at her sleeve...


Please let me have some.  He asks.


Oh dear, it looks like Peggy Sue just wants to eat it all herself!
