20: Therapy

The Potting Shed Committee - excluding Juggins/Masongill who is still restrained in a large elastic band reading a comic - quickly decides that they will spend quite a lot of their breakfast fund getting Masongill psychological help or ‘therapy’. 

They send off for Doctor Stuart’s Magic Therapy Box, which arrives flat packed from IKEA two days later. It is perhaps better if we ignore the ‘fruity’ language that emerges from the Potting Shed while they assemble it.

But when they have, they gently push Juggins, with his sponge, iron and fine hat towards it. He slowly enters, of his own free will.

There is a blinding light which shines out illuminating the wood about the Potting Shed. 

Then, without sponge, iron or fine hat, Masongill emerges, looking a little confused. Everyone applauds and hugs him and offers him the last of the marmalade. 

(If any reader asks at this touching moment what actually happened to the sponge, travel iron and fine hat then they should stand at the back of the classroom for being bad sports!)
