Once there was an old man…
One hot sunny summer’s day an 87 year old man called Raymond went for his morning walk around Bluff in Invercargill like he does every morning. Raymond had grey hair, a slouched back, wrinkly skin, he is enthusiastic, kind, caring and he has baby blue eyes. Each day Raymond would come across one, two or three pieces of rubbish but he would immediately stop and pick it all up.
Raymond appeared to see two teenagers called Mickey and Mackey everyday. The teenagers would always be there before the old man. A few days later Raymond woke up and decided to take his morning walk earlier than usual. He walked as the morning breeze blew in his hair; he finally arrived 10 minutes later. He stopped and had a look around to see if Mickey and Mackey were in sight. Raymond finally stopped searching and sat down by some rocks. He waited for half an hour for the teenagers Mickey and Mackey but no one was there, though not even a fish blew a bubble. So Raymond stood up, but just as he did he saw Mickey and Mackey litter. Raymond was furious. He couldn’t believe what he had just seen. He walked home huffing and puffing. He felt strange and all he wanted to do was make a change in the world. Raymond walked through his garden and through the back door. He got into his blue stripy pajama’s and fell asleep. That night Raymond woke up in the middle of the night with a thumping chest, a aching body and he thought his heart had burst into flames. He pressed his medical alert button and within minutes the ambulance was there. The sirens flashed really brightly in the dark of the night. Within seconds Raymond was in the emergency room at the hospital.
Raymond had to have serious heart surgery. 2 days latter Mickey and Mackey thought it was so quiet and where was the old man? Mickey and Mackey missed Raymond but as Raymond was gone Mickey and Mackey changed they stopped littering they had learnt their lessons. the 3 news team arrived at bluff in shock bluff had never looked so beautiful before. Raymond turned on the TV and started watching 3 news. All of a sudden Mickey and Mackey were on TV. Raymond was confused" how did they get to be on TV?” hi said to himself. 5 minutes later they showed all of the images of the area. “Wow that’s so amazing”. Two weeks later they let Raymond go and the 1st thing that Raymond did was go for his morning walk.
