On this dull day. Tommy and Billy where slightly more agitated than normal. So mum stuck on the TV again, hoping the children would watch it for 5 minutes so she could get some housework done.
Tommy watched the 2 bobbing characters on the TV, laughing as they sang about underpants.
Billy on the other hand looked at the funny bobbing people on the screen for about 0.5 seconds before he really wanted to annoy his older brother.
What are little brothers for ey?
Whilst both little eyes were not focusing on the TV and mum was scrubbing jam off the kitchen floor, something strange was happening on the TV. Its a shame no-one was watching.
Everytime the little boys screamed "STOP!!" The 2 happy people on the TV froze on the spot and stopped their singing!
Thats right. They could hear the little boys arguing!
