GWEEP!

Christmas Teaser Two

Angus Brosnigag (World famous Director, Playwright, Self-publicist and Bonsai Wrestler):

Start with the usual yadda- yadda, (that'll upset Graham). Don't forget to mention juggling for tj-Merry Mischief Maker 's benefit. And cue the Unicyclistic Ventriloquist...

GUINEA PIG ONE (Ralph): Hey chaps, I've just had Murray on the phone.

(Ralph and Toby look expectantly at Graham)

GUINEA PIG THREE (Graham): Ah yes the delightful Mr. Minty, our esteemed agent, and what did he have to say for himself?

(Ralph and Toby exchange slightly troubled glances)

RALPH: We're famous.

GUINEA PIG TWO (Toby): We are?

GRAHAM: How so?

RALPH (Dramatically - That is with much nose twitching and excited squeaks and gweeps!):

We are getting our very own Merit Badge.

TOBY: Woohoo!

RALPH: Yep. The The StoryMistress has worked her magic, and we're going to be on a Merit Badge.

GRAHAM: Gweep!

RALPH: Gweep indeed old chap. But there's more. I think our badge is the one that's going to be given away on Christmas Day.

TOBY: Demand will be high.

RALPH: Oh I should think so. A free Merit Badge featuring 'The Three Wise Guinea Pigs', what's not to like?

GRAHAM: Remind me again, how do folks get one of these badges?

TOBY: They have to let Adherennium - Maybe Writing? know, either by a comment on this post, or an email.

RALPH: Yes, but they have to pick a number bet5ween 1 and 24 as well, so they can be in for a draw for extra merit badges.

GRAHAM: So don't forget to tell him what number you want - that's important.

RALPH: I'm so excited I think we should celebrate.

TOBY: Tell you what, let's go to the 'Fig and Serpent', they do a delicious Dandelion Salad there.

(Exit Ralph, Graham and Toby).
