Nanny Piggins And The Rival Ringmaster - Plot & Excerpts
For once she was not her usual glamorous self. She had mud smeared on her face, hair and Chanel satin dress. She had sweat on her brow. And she was cross. ‘Can we get you anything?’ asked Derrick. The children were standing at the top of the trench, watching their nanny work. They had offered to help. But Nanny Piggins was such a ferocious digger that standing anywhere near her when she had a shovel in her hands meant they tended to get showered with dirt. ‘You can get me a good stick to hit your father with,’ muttered Nanny Piggins as she kept digging. For it was Mr Green with whom she was cross. Earlier that day she had been having a long luxurious bath when inspiration had struck. She suddenly thought of the most delicious way to make orange and poppy-seed cake even yummier (it largely involved leaving out the poppy seeds and replacing them with chocolate chips. But there were other subtle alterations as well).
