Story filed: Ships, Chapter One
Hi people, it's Leo here. I have typed up on my typewriter another of my story chapters, about Ships. Ships have a lot of places; like where they store the gunpowder, the storage in the belly of the ship, the Captain's quarters. There is a ship in next door's house. It is a wonderful model ship. It didn't have a name, we called it 'The Wasp'. It had 10 sails and 12 cannons. I looked for the steering wheel but it had none. I have also seen a model ship in a shop-front window. It was a speed boat. It had levers and smooth wood. It had real white leather seats - amazing! and I think it had real metal and definitely had glass windows. In Tintin's books there is a ship called "The Unicorn'. In the story it's carrying a special cargo. It was treasure. The Unicorn got attacked by pirates the leader was Red Rackham. I have made up some other names for ships like 'The Crocodile' and 'The Scorpion'. If I had a ship I would call it 'The Pistol'.
Until next time
