Dad's Grand Plan

Everyone was excited. It was holiday time. Kipper couldn't wait. "Only two days to go!" he said

Chip looked at Floppy. He was running round and round. They all laughed at him. "See! Even Floppy is excited," said Chip. Mum came in. She gave a big sigh. "Dad wants a family meeting," she said What's that?” asked Kipper.

"Dad has a Grand Plan." "A Grand Plan?” said Chip. "What's a Grand Plan?” "I don't like the sound of it," said Biff. Everyone sat at the table. Dad had made a long list of jobs. "I want everyone to help, then nobody gets cross," he said

Everyone looked at the list. They all had jobs to do. Mum liked Dad's Grand Plan. Chip was not so sure! "I've packed my bag," said Biff. "And I've packed my bag," said Kipper. I have not packed yet," said Dad. "Why not?” asked Mum

"I can't find my socks," said Dad, crossly The socks were in the washing machine. "Why were they in there?” asked Dad "That was where you put them," said Mum. It was time to go. Dad's Grand Plan had worked. Nothing had gone wrong. There's still time," whispered Chip
