This is chief suspect, Stealth Boy, also known around these parts as the 3 year old. He looks a bit like Sportacus but don’t be deceived.Over recent times he has been getting up very early, sometimes undetected, and it is believed that his latest covert operation is in full swing.
He leaves calling cards all over the house, evidence of his early morning work.
For instance, over recent weeks, I have found the following oddities which have a distinct whiff of '3 year old';
1. I start to read my book. After a few minutes I realise that either a) I have read the chapter already or b) I have travelled forward in time. My bookmark has been moved.
2. I pick up an apple from the fruit bowl. It already has a single child sized bite mark.
3. There is a beautiful yellow crayon sunshine on the dining room wall.
4. Deleting messages from my mobile phone sent items I come across a message to a friend’s phone saying ‘fogypipy jambegy?’.
5. A tub of fish food has been opened and upturned on the 13 year old's bed.
6. Three tulips out of 6 in a vase looking the as if they have been attacked with a sword.
7. Five calculators open on the computer desktop.
8. A biscuit barrel with half its contents missing and a trail of crumbs …
9. A lipstick crushed into its lid.
and the grand finale, crime of the century ...
10. A beanbag minus its innards.
