‘Is that your lunch box sailing across the

pool?’

Both Abby and Miss Sweet look past me, out to where Abby’s lunch box is sailing out across the great expanse of Redhill Pool. ‘MAX!!!’ Abby and Miss Sweet yell at the same time, silencing the whole room. It’s silent enough for everyone to hear the giant SNAP! followed by a YEOW! as Tyson snaps Lee’s swimmers like an elastic band against his bum. ‘TYSON!’ Miss Sweet exclaims and marches off in his direction. It seems Tyson presents a more immediate danger than my sailing boat.
