The Helicopter Rescue - Part 3

The Gifts for Terry Tan
Terry Tan flew the helicopter to rescue Yoko and two international gangsters who had kidnapped her in a Japanese shopping mall. The stolen helicopter they were travelling in crashed into the side of a mountain in New Zealand. Terry Tan also flew back to collect the pieces of the helicopter that had crashed, (He actually put the helicopter together again) and brought it back to the depot.




The next morning Mrs White brings in a hot milo and a piece of toast to Terry Tan who now has moved into the top room of the White’s family home. The White family have recently moved into this home after living in another home for four weeks and before that they lived in a pink boot. Mrs White tells Terry that they have just had the fire place put into this house so it will be warm inside this winter once Mrs White gets the windows fixed and curtains made for the windows.


Yoko arrives at the White’s house before Terry has come down to the living area and tells Mr White she has ordered a gift for Terry Tan because he bravely rescued her and she wants to honour him. The gift is due to arrive later today and can come back in the afternoon and make a presentation to him. Mr White welcomes Yoko to return later in the afternoon and present the gift to him.


Terry comes into the living room and looks at the fireplace and is impressed that it is such a nice one.
Mrs White tells him to use the new hot water kettle to make himself a drink whenever he wants one.




Pink Nose shyly tells Terry she has made him a gift which is in the bag. 


Terry opens the bag and finds a knitted hat and scarf inside. He puts them on and thanks Pink Nose for knitting it for him. He tells her it is very special to him just like she is special to him. He is unsure whether it would be appropriate to thank her with a kiss. He decides not too because her sister and brother-in-law are in the room and Terry is too shy.


Grandfather and Grandmother Cotton tail are the first to arrive for Yoko’s presentation of a gift to Terry.

Mrs Grayson has brought her best china for Mrs White to use for the occasion.



Mr and Mrs Know and Mr and Mrs Grayson Blue arrive so Mr White sits at the piano and starts playing some music. All the rabbits join in with singing.


Yoko arrives with her gift for Terry and she thanks Terry so much for rescuing her from the helicopter crash by the mountain.


Terry opens the gift and inside is a remote controlled helicopter just like the one he flies. Terry thanks Yoko and tells her he will invite all the rabbits to the park to watch it fly. After more singing and a delicious afternoon tea provided by Mrs White the afternoon presentation ends and the rabbits go home. Yoko also catches the plane and flies back to Japan.



The following week Terry receives a photo from Yoko in Japan telling him she is having a holiday on the coast and that she would love him to come to Japan to visit her.

Editors note: Tried to take a better photo of Mrs White and Mrs Grayson with the china tea set.


The photos haven't come out well.

A Mouse is in my Kitchen


A mouse has got into my house and is on top of the curtain rail surveying the kitchen bench. He is planning to climb onto the bench to try and get some food.



His first plan is to climb down on to the hoya plant which is hanging on the other wall.


He can now climb on to the chair where there is a radio CD player. The radio is on so he turns the volume switch up a bit louder so if he does knock something off the bench hopefully  it won’t be heard.


He scurries over the shelf with the Bunnykins mugs on and notices they are dusty so this could be a good place to store extra food.

He jumps over to the shelf above the bench and looks down before makes his next move.


He decides to jump on the electric jug which he finds out is hot! So he jumps off that quickly!


Finally he is on the bench but he hears the kitchen to hallway door open so he hides behind the blue ice cream container. A lady makes a hot drink but then goes outside to attend to her dogs. The mouse smells the food scraps in the empty ice cream container and has a good feed.



The smell of the recently made hazelnut latte draws him over to it where he stands up right and starts drinking. The kitchen outside door opens and in runs three dogs with the lady behind them. The mouse has time to hide again before he makes his way to his hiding place. The mouse has decided to hang around in this house.
