Whoops!!!!

Sammie knew he was in for it.
The stereo worked fine, there was lovely music coming from that one.



The TV however, was a completely different matter.
He didn't know what had happened there but.....
.... the minute he went to switch it off, BAM!!!



It broke.

"Oh crap, oh crap," he muttered, panicking, "this is coming out of my paycheck, I know it!"



"Sammie? You okay in there?"

"Um, I'm fine Mrs G."

"I can hear a hissing sound, are you SURE you're okay?"

Ah pants!!! he thought, oh well, better 'fess up.

Ginny had been busy tucking Helen in when she heard the bang, then the crackling noise. The door swung open and a rather sheepish looking Sammie walked in.

"You look a bit pale," she asked, "anything the matter?"



"Um, Mr G's not going to like me."

"Whatever for?"

"Er..... I broke your TV."

Ginny shook her head. With quite a lot of things breaking down around the house, it was just a matter of time before it was the TV's turn. Although she hadn't expected that to go so soon. Heck, even the shower had broken not half an hour previously, causing water to leak everywhere!!!

"I can pay for half the repair bill!" Sammie suggested, "after all, it was me who broke it!"

Although she knew Ambrose was quite an intelligent man and was knowledgeable on many things, she also knew that this was completely beyond him. She winked at Sammie, who was looking a little uncomfortable, before whipping out her phone and calling for the repairman.

"Don't worry about it," she said smiling, "we'll sort it out."

"But."

"No buts Sammie.... hello? Yes? I've a TV that's broken. I can't seem to get a picture on it at all. Yeah. No, no reception either. Someone will be around in a hour to fix it? That's excellent news! Thanks, bye."

"Won't Mr G be annoyed at me?"



"Shh, what he doesn't know won't hurt him right? Now why don't you go grab something from the fridge and make yourself comfy? I'm afraid we don't have a TV.... or at least a 'working' one!!!"

Sure enough, within the hour, a pick up pulled up outside the house and someone came in to fix the TV.


However, shortly after they left, there was another vehicle parked outside.



And lurking by the front door was a very shady character. Yes, she was part of the paparazzi, but even she showed her distaste for the unmarked car across the road.



Who could it possibly be?
