They'd do it and it would splash right down so if you were walking about underneath it could land right on your head. You're like one of them Egyptians wanting a pyramid built, only you haven't got millions of slaves, you've just got me.

She held it against my hurting eye, tipped my head back, and told me to open the sore eye as wide as possible. I wasn't the target audience for this book, clearly, however when I was younger I felt the same way about the book and always put it towards the back of my shelf behind every other Jacqueline Wilson book I had.
