So, I thought....what a waste. I could do something with them...maybe not eat 'em...there a bit small, but they must be good for something...So...I gathered some up....

So, off we went. Among all the drilling and shaving and cutting and rasping and chuckling (not me chuckling...the nutty ones did that)...we sort of ended up with a nut or two far happier now than they before, just laying there waiting to get kicked, or worse still, run over!

But...There was a problem. Apparently, all new Nutty's have to be inspected on completion, (Yes, it was a suprise to me too). An inspection by the terrible 'Ma Grazz' is really something else. She's a real terror by all accounts but I wasn't too worried until it happened.....! The cry went out...

Sure enough! In no time at all, Ma Grazz landed on the work bench....Oooo!

Talk about panic! Everyone was running around not knowing what to do...they had to line-up for inspection but they were all over the place enjoying a bit of freedom and...well, just panicking...sort of...

Mother shouts, Father wakes up, and pushing the heavy door-mat out of the way, pokes his head over the lip of the mat and gives Ma Grizz 'the evil stare' with his one good eye...
