A STEP TOO FAR !


Puffing Toby mutters " That's a long way to climb! I think when I'm Olympic champion I'll tell them to put a lift in!"


Carefully he gets to his feet balancing on the fence.


He looks around a his new height ! It's a little scary but also great because he can see everywhere!


Mmm what to do first he wonders! Oh of course he needs to remove his shoes! Without thinking he just leans forward ! immediately he loses his balance and falls forward and into space!

Not a sound can be heard .....................................

  6. A lesson...'never wear shoes before preparing for a dive'...obviously learned the hard way!
    ...BUT where was, or did you forget, your little face towel that they always keep with them, before finally throwing it down from the high spring boards?

  7. OOOOOOooooooo those wonderful shoes!!!! Sorry Toby, I know I should have thought "poor Toby" but those shoes look like they're by Jean Jensen and they are too lovely to spoil in the green water of the pond!!!!
