TEA TIME TALES
Terry, the terribly tuneless trombonist, tried tromboning, ‘Twankydillo’, troubling the touchy twosome, twenty–three, The Towers. Tremendous thuds, throwing things, taunting threats… Terrible!
Thus Terry tried the triangle. Terry’s tame thrush, tunefully trilled. Together they tried the ‘Titanic’ theme. Terry tested the tuba, then the trumpet, trumpeting the telling tune to ‘Thousands…’ The thrush twittering to time.
Terry turned to the tambourine – taking time to train the talented thrush to trill the theme to ‘The Terminator’.
Then there’s the time Terry taught toucans. The trouble though, Terry’s truculent toucans took things. Tasty tomatoey toast, tinned tuna, tantalising tiramisu…
Together the two toucans tormented Tulip, Terry’s touchy tortoise, tenaciously taking Tulip’s ‘Turmits’.
Terry, tired to the teeth, tricked the toucans to try the treacle tart. Then they tried to take Tulip’s third turnip. ‘Tough,’ thought Terry. They trickled the thickening treacle. ‘Those thieving toucans, the treacle’s turned to toffee. They’re thwarted. Teehee!’
Then they thought to tease Terry. These two took Terry’s thyroid tablets, thereafter, the troubled toucans took to the trees towards the town. The trials, the tribulations…!
Terry telephoned the taxi that took Terry to the tip. There, taking the trombone, Terry transformed the tender tune, “Tiptoe through the Tulips” to terrifying thunderous trumpeting toots! Thus the tip took Terry’s tuneless trombone.
This tale terminates thus: Terry turned totally to the triangle, the tambourine, thrilling the trilling thrush, tempering Tulip the tortoise.
