**Nooner** - is our room free? Don’t forget the “supplies”!

Morning **CutiePie** - won’t be long, I just need to borrow **Nooner** for a while, he’s got some important stuff to do.

I agree… **Noone** should go put a hand in there!

And anyway, looking for the key is just an excuse … Why should I want to **use** it? In fact, I may look around for quite a while, all the time failing to find it 😉

Wonder how much we can get away with without getting the day crew [del]jealous[/del] mad at us…

ETA: Oops, here they come now…! :eek: Let’s hide somewhere!

**Nooner** , you shouldn’t actually want to use the key but the fun part is finding it. You never know how far it might move around in there.

Are the others getting jealous? Oh dear, that’s not good. Any second now **CutiePie** will be banging on the door with the egg timer going off in her hand!

Maybe if we can’t beat her, we should join her? 😉 _Ouch!_ That hurt!!

What? Outside? With an egg timer? Surely we should find the _spare_ key and let her in?

I’ll help you look for the spare key, where did you last see it? Have you emptied all your pockets?
