Gargoylz Blog » Blog Archive » The leaning tower of (smelly) Pizza

Barney’s home and has told us all about his holiday.  It turns out that the Leaning Tower wasn’t made of pizza after all.  It was a proper tower in Pisa that leans.  He didn’t realise until he’d got to the top and took a big bite out of the stone!   It gave him such a fright that he made one of his smells and Mrs Hogsbum got the blame!  All the tourists had to hold their noses and the guide asked Mrs Hogbum to leave.  She shouted outrageous and told them they’d broken holiday rule number 754 – No one tells a head teacher to leave a leaning tower. 

There was an animal fun day at the church yesterday in aid of the donkey sanctuary down the road.  The vicar dressed up as a kangaroo and bounced around giving out sweets from his pouch – until Zack got inside and scoffed the lot.  Ben and I went as a giant cockroach and scared Doris and Aggie, the demon flower arrangers.

Theo turned into a kitten and won first prize for his costume.  The vicar thought he was a small child.  Our new friend Abel had transformed into a tree and was having a snooze when the vicar’s wife pinned a treasure hunt clue to his trunk.  He soon woke up and changed the wording so that all the treasure hunters ended up in the pond!  It was a great day and the donkeys are now going to have new ear warmers for winter.

Mum’s calling me.  She says it’s Ben on the phone and he’s got an awesome surprise for me.

Now Barney is back from his Holiday can he come to my house before school starts again – I need a big stink to surprise my Nana who is looking after me?

Trouble is, Kasper, if Barney makes a smell in your house you’ll have to run out as well! Why don’t you think of a different trick and let us know. Remember – no nasty ones!

Calling all Gargoylz fans! Those naughty gargoylz have played a trick on you. Toby should be holding up the secret codeword in Gargoylz Summer Fun so that you can play the go-cart game. But he gave it to Zack to do and Zack popped invisible at the wrong moment. Here’s a clue to the word – it’s the biggest word on page 53.

Hello everyone! Did you see us at the Southport Flower Show on Saturday? We were hiding in the hollyhocks and running round the rosez. Big, big hello to the kidz who came to hear the storiez at the Bloomin’ Good Books tent. You were great – and wasn’t that a cool trick we played on the people who were eating their sandwichez!
