The Hazelnut Family Arrive at K. C. Bunnborough

Terry Tan the helicopter driver sets the helicopter down by the Kowhai Tree. His passengers are a mice family that he rescued by a flooded river opposite the water pipe outlet.

 

Terry Tan lets the family out of the helicopter and gives them instructions to Mr Know’s egg house. Mr Know is in charge of K. C. Bunnyborough. Mr Know will help them out regards the mice family getting accommodation, a meal and a shower and bath!

 

The Father mouse, Sidney Hazelnut leads the way with son Otto, daughter Odette and mother Mona following him.(These are the names given to this family that are on the box the mice are in.)

The Hazelnut family come into sight of the egg house and see Mr Know doing some gardening and the twins are playing nearby. Mr Hazelnut and family go to Mr Know and Mr Hazelnut tells Mr Know that Terry Tan has rescued them from the flooded river and suggested they come here for some help. After a lengthy discussion the family has been told to go to the Wash House to have showers or a bath.

 

Mrs Grayson Blue is in charge of the Wash House and was wiping the bath clean when the Hazelnut family arrive. She takes get pride in keeping the Wash House clean especially now that it has been re wall papered.

 

She can certainly smell them as Mr Hazelnut introduces himself and family and explains their situation. Mrs Grayson Blue very kindly explains how everything works because the mice have never seen baths and showers before!

 

She tells the family when they have finished washing themselves that they might now like to visit her sister, Mrs Grayson who is a great sewer and they could get themselves some clothes. Otto and Odette think this is a great adventure.

The Hazelnut family are feeling refreshed after their showers and baths. Mrs Grayson Blue has invited them to come back again… soon to use the Wash House. Onwards towards Mrs Grayson’s house the family scamper. “ Wow!” they exclaim when they see the big house. Mr Hazelnut knocks on the door.

 

 

Mr Grayson opens the door and invites the Hazelnut family inside. Mrs Grayson tells the family to follow her up the stairs.

 

There in the room at the top of the stairs are some clothes for each member of the family to wear.

 

The family thank Mrs Grayson and quickly put the clothes on and descend the stairs where the waiting rabbits squeal in delight.
