A modern day children's story

In the style of Thomas the Tank engine....

One day, on the island of Sodor, the people were all upset! Timmy the Tug Boat had a stomach ache and couldn't delivery the newspapers (full of exciting offers for things could didn't need). Yesterday Ivan the Vodka Burner had delivered the newspapers from Nemoland, with his nephew Sammy the Saab, but had been sooo noisy he had frightened all the people.

But wait, help is at hand!. Sitting patiently in Peel Harbours is faithful old (but still trusty and reliable, not worn-out and knackered as some people had unkindly said), Budgie, the Cargo Plane!

With a top up of fuel and some of his special mixture, Budgie soon loaded the newspapers and was eager to be off! But no, the Island of Sodor was under a thick blanket of evil Fog, which was holding everybody up, including that shiny new Eduardo the Embraer from those nice people in Exeterland.

As time passed by Budgie was certain that all the nice people in Sodor were getting more upset, not being able to read about Posh & Becks etc. So with a song in his heart, he soared into the air from Peel Harbours (I did say it was a story) and when the saw the fog stopping him from landing at Sodor International Galactic Spaceport, with a mighty breath he cleared the sky of all the nasty fog and made an impressively smooth landing (I did say......), to cheering from the massed rank of the Sodor spotters club.

Ah, bless!
