Paddington silently stared at the two colourful toothbrushes. He had a feeling he should poke them into his ears. He did. When he pulled the
shiny toothbrushes out of his ears, to his surprise there was gleaming marmalade right on the end. Without
saying a word Paddington slowly licked the marmalade! ( which was actually ear wax) “ YUCK”. He screamed. Suddenly he swallowed the ghastly soap. He started coughing heavily, then he ran
over to the toilet like lighting. He dunked his head in the toilet, without thinking he pulled the leaver, knocked over the shelf. Crack went the pipe. As fast as a wink, the toilet pipe fell into the bath, with paddington in the bath too. Then the shower hose went on as Paddington highly trained professional black belt started fighting
the shower hose, with his hat as a shield.The bathroom
was flooded. As a drip dropped in the direction of Edmund’s coffee. Edmund slowly walked up the stairs, opened the slim wooden door. As fast as the wind, Water flooded the stairs as Paddington slid down the stairs in the bath. Bump! Bump! Bump! Paddington slid to the kitchen then very shocked jess said “ That was amazing”.
