Mummy wore her pijamas all day long and to be honest, she is smelly. She is not using beodorant and she doesnt brush her hair or put on lipstick. Her voice has gone all wierd, it is so quiet that I cant hear her. It feels like she isnt my mummy any more. I dont like being left with her. When I ask her whats wrong she shakes her head. I dont like her like this. She is HORRID to Daddy whatever he does and wont let him sleep in his own bed. He has to sleep on the sofa which isnt fair as half the bed belongs to him. Last night she called him rude words. She said she had NO respect for him NONE NONE NONE. I got out of bed to watch through the crack in the door. She was crying and she started hitting Daddy and he let her and then suddenly she stopped and dropped to the floor and he picked her up and carried her like a doll into the bed. I am scared of her. And he is so NICE to her he brings her tea and makes the dinner. The worst thing is she doesnt even know what I know. Daddy is planning a SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY for her!!!!!!!!!! I forgot to say!!! He swore Polly and me to secresy because we bumped into him and Ness when we were at the Holiday Inn. They were at the bar then he tried to hide from us behind a palm tree. Which was funny because we tried to hide from them because we didnt want the hotel staff knowing who our parents were. But then Daddy pretended he wasnt hiding and so he HAD to tell us about the secret surprise. He didn’t even ask us what we were doing there (we have started a business by selling the little wisky bottles to the tramps by the station for 50p each). I am very excited about the party. I said it should be a swimming party. I love surprises but I promised I wouldnt tell Mummy. She doesnt deserve it if you ask me.
