Sam: (Shaking his head vigorously) No I won’t!
Mother: Why not?
Sam: It’s too deep. I’ll sink.
Mother: Oh come on, Sam. It’s not that deep. See even little Peter got in.
Sam: He probably never knew. At least give me a lifejacket first.
Mother: (With an exasperated sigh) Sam, will you just get into the bathtub before the water gets cold.
G for Get In!

Hi Bernedette. Lovely to meet you. Love this little play script with its twist at the end. So cute. Thanks for joining the WEP challenge. It’s so great to have our first playscript!
I’m not sure you’ll get too many comments as I spent a long time working out how to do it, then I hit on the idea of the date. Have had that before.
Thanks again for joining us! And for coming by to comment on my post.

Hi Bernadette – I’m popping over after submitting my entry to the WEP challenge. I enjoyed your teeny tiny story. It was soooo difficult to comment – I don’t think there is an option on your blog.

I am laughing at your very cool ending. At first, I thought they were at a swimming pool or he was getting to dive into a large body of water, but then found out it was the bathtub. Great ingenuity. Just love it.

Very cute. Not sure at first how deep the water was, like a swimming pool, or if there truly could be danger.

That was the plan: to give the story a slight twist/surprise ending

Hi Bernadette – well done .. such fun – and I thought there was going to be a lot more to the story line … but yes in too deep – he wanted to be sure he was safe … and that exasperation in his mother’s voice. Lovely – cheers Hilary
