Great news! Mum has just bought a new house. We are moving today. The moving truck has taken all our furniture and we are all squashed into our car.
But what is this?
“Have you got the right address?” I ask.
“It’s 27 Richmond Place,” says Mum.
“But this house is deserted,” I said, “and the gate is broken.”
That night as I lay in my bed in my new bedroom, I could not stop thinking about our new house. Suddenly I heard this strange noise. It appeared to be coming from the ceiling. I lay awake imagining what it might be. It sounded like an invasion of aliens. Finally I fell into a deep sleep exhausted from the day.
The next day I went exploring to see what could have been making a noise like that. In one room I found droplets of green gook splattered around the floor. In the next room I found powdered footprints across the floor but this foot has three toes.
Then dad came in and I told him what I had found. Then he said there were a lot of rats and a lot of rat poison left by the previous owners.
