Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for May 08, 2019

I’ve been saying that for years, Verne.

Or she will.

Or she will toss the prince out and keep the castle. And then see if that devilishly handsome footman has any higher ambitions.

Verne told you what to do yesterday ;-)

At least add “…until the tax man came”, Verne.

Or she gets locked in a tower after convincing their son to overthrow his father.

I love Verne.

Tell them the tale of Mr Seguin’s goat, an old French classic. Beware, the ending ISN’T nice. http://histoires-d-ailleurs.over-blog.com/mr-seguin-s-goat-another-wolf-story

Alternatives include a wood tick and an insane bulldog, IIRC.

Nooooooo OtH would never be the same.

Verne, they AIN’T your “friends”.

Just remember that a good friend will bail you out of jail. A really good friend will be in the cell next to yours.
