Somewhere in the heart of Berlin two teddies panted down a narrow back road.
"Don't you think that was a wee bit scary?" said Hash Brown (otherwise known as Hashington Brown Mc Teddy)
"I, but it's all in a good cause" replied Mc Cuggy .
"I, but only to save your clan and about 33,000 acres of Scottish highland!" said Hash Brown. The reason for this was because Cuggy’s clan was short on money and had to do tasks to earn money from the government, in this case they had to steal a missing teapot.
"Oh no, here they come again" said Mc Cuggy
They ran for about 30 metres and then Hash Brown jumped in a dustbin and Mc Cuggy through a window only to land in Rachel Seeds tie dye pot. Within seconds he was taken out
and left to dry but to his horror he found he had just been dyed into a tartan Cug
"Oh, no!" shouted Cuggy
"Oh my word it's a talking piece of tartan" screamed Rachel.
"I'll buy it from you" said a student who was there for half a school year, his name was Graham.
"Nooooooooooooooo, wait I need that piece of talking tartan" said Hash Brown
"Don't you find it weird, all these talking toys?"asked Rachel
"No, nothing fails to surprise me now" said Graham
"Well if you really want this I will give it to you "
"Thank you!!" said Hash Brown, and picked a tartan McCuggy up.
"Who were you running away from?" asked Rachel.
"That's classified information, young lassie" replied McCuggy.
"Right come on now, we'd better let these young ’uns get on wi' their wee wurk" said Hash Brown.
So they said their goodbyes and went out back into the Berlin alleyway.
"Oh aye the noo," said McCuggy. "That wa' a close one that'un. Thank goodness we got the teapot. I only wish we di'n't 'av to doo these tasks for the government. I wish
somehow we could 'av the money to repair my luvly estate up yonder on the Scottish Highlands. It's such a terrible shame, mi laddy."
"I knooow" Hash Brown replied.
"And looook at mi now," continued McCuggy, "I'm all tartaned up."
"Look, we've got the teapot. We need to get back to give it to the Scottish government. But it's getting late. Let's book into this Youth Hostel." said Hash Brown.
"Ay, you're right," said McCuggy sleepily.
Once they had settled down into the youth Hostel they then had dinner and then went to bed.
They were woken suddenly early next morning with the owner of the Hostel ordering everyone to get out of the Youth Hostel or in German Jugendherberge (young end burger). They
sleepily got dressed and went out of the Youth Hostel.
"Where to now?" asked Hash Brown.
"To the airport to deliver this teapot back and claim the money to keep us going" replied McCuggy.
But when they arrived at Berlin Airport they got a surprise because there standing in front of them was Alistair McSooty of the same clan of Hash Brown.
"The government told me to come here to collect the missing teapot and give to the German Government and also to tell you your next mission, and I'm coming with you!" said Alistair McSooty
"So what is it?" asked McCuggy
"Well, it's er, quite a big mission really" said Alistair McSooty.
"Go on" said Hash Brown.
"If you complete this mission, then the Scottish government will give you the right to have all your lands back in the Scottish highlands and you won't have to repay your debts
anymore."
"Sounds good" said Hash Brown.
"Sounds tricky" said McCuggy
"Well you say that," said McSooty, "but I think you'll be capable of doing it. Firstly, here are E500 for you to pay for us if we need to spend more nights in the Jugendherberge or need to travel on the metro or anything."
"Oooooooh" exclaimed Hash Brown, who was well known for collecting foreign currency.
"So what is our task?" said McCuggy
"Well, you know that Berlin was re-united in 1990; because before then West Berlin was owned by West Germany, who were friends with England and France, and East Berlin was owned by East Germany, which was friends with the USSR. Now it turns out that the USSR stole something from Scotland a long time ago, and hid it in East Berlin. Now that people
can visit East Berlin, we can find this something. And well," McSooty started whispering.
"This something is actually a ring!"
"And Cug is the Lord of the Ring!" replied Hash Brown
"No, Hash Brown I'm not." said McCuggy "So tell us more about this ring then!"
"Well it has a emerald diamond in it and is very smooth." replied McSooty
"Why is it so important?" asked Hash Brown
" The USSR took the ring because it was the Scottish symbol of freedom and worth lots, the USSR could sell it to make money for themselves, East Berlin was poor so the USSR
promised a share in the price if they hid it in there part of the city." explained McSooty.
"So all we need to do is find this ring!"said McCuggy
"Errrr, it's not as simple as that" said McSooty "You see, there are two other people from the USSR who are also trying to get the ring, and they are the criminal masterminds of the world! They are called Jolene Alligatorov and his accomplice, and allegedly his wife, Raggia Dollina. They are dangerous!"
"Och ay the nooo" exclaimed Hash Brown
"We have some idea as to where the ring is hidden. It rightfully belongs to Scotland so we have to get it! But we know Jolene and Raggia are tracking it down. They are
dangerous criminal masterminds!" said Alistair McSooty.
"Yes you've already said that" said Hash Brown.
"Right then," said McCuggy. "do you know where this Alligatorov bloke and his wife are at the moment?"
"Well we believe they are about to take some extremely boring exams. But I reckon they are about to come to Berlin this weekend! We have got to act fast." said McSooty.
"So where do we start?" asked Hash Brown.
"Well this ring could be anywhere in Berlin" said McSooty
"But I think the best place to start will be the Berlin Ordnance Survey to find old maps which might tell us more information"
"But were do find the O.S?" asked McCuggy
"What we really need is a map!" said Hash Brown thoughtfully
"Well we don't have a map so there are two ways to find it out a) follow the O.S Balloon that is flying above us now or b) follow Dick Seed because the new Customs and Exercise building will be next to the O.S!" said McSooty
So they set of following Dick Seeds "Tin Can" and the Hot Air Balloon and it wasn't too long before they arrived at Deutsche Ordnance Survey, in a street just off Friedrichstraße. They had no problem picking up old maps, because Graham had seen many in souvenir shops but he
didn't buy any.
"So" said Alistair McSooty, "we want the map of Berlin when the city was divided. We know that the ring must be hidden somewhere in the east of the city. That's narrowed it down slightly but it still could be anywhere. Hmm."
"The most obvious place," said McCuggy, "is the Russian embassy. That I know for a fact is a very big building on Unter den Linden. We could go there..." but he was interrupted by two women choosing old dresses for a posh night out pushing past them. Hash Brown then spoke up.
"Alternatively, we could go all the way up the TV Tower on Alexanderplatz, and we would get a great view of the city from there."
So they thought for a bit which of the two options they would do and finally decided to go to the Alexander-platz T.V tower.
When they arrived they saw Herr Vine and Herr Marr rushing around in a panic.
"What's wrong?" asked McCuggy
"Hash Brown?" said McSooty looking around for his friend
"No thanks I’ve just had breakfast" said Herr Vine
"No, I mean where is Hash Brown?" said McSooty.
"Oh I see - you see I just saw an alligator and his rag doll wife carrying this poor brown bear up the TV Tower!" said Herr Vine.
"Jolene Alligatorov and Raggia Dolina!" exclaimed McCuggy. "Quick McSooty, let's get up the TV Tower." They hurried into the building and had to pay six euros each to
get to the top. They took the lift and McSooty felt his ears popping as they ascended the tower.
Ding! The lift doors opened and McCuggy and McSooty walked out onto the viewing platform.
"Wow what a great view of Berlin!" exclaimed McSooty.
"But where is Hash Brown?" said McCuggy.
Both walked round the platform and peered into the revolving restaurant but they couldn't see Hash Brown or the two villains. The only people in the revolving restaurant were some people having a posh dinner.
"Not only have we got to find this ring but we have to find Hash Brown now as well" said McCuggy. Dismayed, the two companions took a final look round.
"Nope, can't see anything" said McSooty
"Hmmm, all I can see is a alligator and a doll playing rugby with a brown furry ball!" said McCuggy.
"That's noo rugby ball" said McSooty "That's Hash Brown!"
"That's grand!" said McCuggy.
Quickly the to teddies set of down the side of the tower to try and catch the villains. They could still see the villains running.
"There heading for the wee zoo" said McSooty
"Oh noo" said McCuggy
"What?" said McSooty
"They have just thrown a bomb into that building, its going to blow!!!" replied McCuggy
"RUN!!!!"shouted McSooty and in a James Bond style they ran but got blown away with
the explosion. They landed on the concrete floor.
"Ohh, that hurt" said McCuggy as bits of window and building flew over them. They started picking themselves up. All around them people were picking themselves up too and wondering what on earth had gone on.
"My, that must have been the most dramatic moment in a Cug story yet, surely?" said McSooty.
"They've taken Hash Brown" said McCuggy. "And run off to the Zoo."
"What building was it that they threw the bomb at?" asked McSooty. The two looked through the haze of rubble to try to determine which building it was. The German Police
started arriving and asked everyone to move away. McCuggy and McSooty moved off Alexanderplatz, where they were, and started walking down Unter den Linden in the direction of the Zoo, in order to track down the villains and Hash
Brown.
"What do you think was that building that they blew up" asked McCuggy as they raced along the zoo pathway passing some penguins.
"Well, when I looked back all I could see in a second was the letter I" said McSooty
"Tourist information!" shouted McCuggy, several monkeys and humans looked at them,
"Sorry" said McCuggy
"So that means that Jolene & Raggia didn't want us to see what was in the building" said McSooty "It was probably an old map telling us were the ring was kept!"
"But that means that Jolene & Raggia already know were the ring is!" said McCuggy
"But it does not have to be the information centre, it could of been an Internet Cafe" said McSooty
"Look! Hash Brown" shouted McCuggy in alarm.
"Mmmwhhfff!" said a muffled Hash Brown. He had been tied up to a lamppost next to the bear enclosure. He had a scarf round his mouth so he couldn't talk. "Lewwhfft meewwffh fffreeewwwhf!"
"Hash Brown!" exclaimed McSooty. "What on earth are you doing being tied up to a lamppost next to the bear enclosure?"
"Iwwwh dowwwnffft knowfffff"
"Sorry I didn't catch that, can you speak more clearly?"
"LOOWWWKKFFF PLEWWWFFFSSHHH UNTWWWWEEE MEEEWWWFFF!"
McCuggy untied him and set him free.
"Oh I can speak again," celebrated Hash Brown. "I spotted Raggia and Jolene at the top of the tower, but they didn't want to be spotted so they ran off, and took me; then they blew up the Information Centre and tied me too this lamppost and have run off - well I don't know where
really." he explained.
"So it was an Information Centre." said McCuggy. "Why would they want to blow that up? You're probably right, there's a map there or something telling us where the ring is. But
if they do know where the ring is, then they will be going there now, and steal it, but if they don't know where it was, then maybe the bomb was a distraction, but..... hmmm... it's a tricky one this one."
"Well what should we do now?" asked Hash Brown
"I really don't know" said McSooty "What do you think McCuggy?"
"Hmmmm, Hash Brown do you know why Raggia and Jolene were at the top of the tower?" said McCuggy.
"Noo, not really" said Hash Brown "I thought they were looking for something, like the ring"
"Then if they knew where the ring was because of the information centre then why were they at the top of that tower?" explained McCuggy.
"Aye, I see your point McCuggy" said McSooty.
The three teddies started running down the pathway that Hash Brown had said the villains went down but they could not see them anywhere.
"Ohhhhhhh, I love chases" said a pinkish voice.
The three heroes turned around, when who should come elegantly waltzing out of a side alley but the gorgeous Pinka Du Teddois.
"Elllooh mes amis! And 'ow 'ar yuuu? I do lurrrve ze chases! Aha, Alistair, mon honey! Comment t'appelles tu?"
"Ay?" said McCuggy. "Shouldn't that be 'ça va'?"
"Ah oui," said Pinka "And 'ow ar yuuuu feeling? And 'ho is yurr cute little friend?" she said, pointing at Hash Brown.
"That is Hash Brown" said Alistair McSooty, going slightly red. "What are you doing in Berlin, Pinka?"
"I am opening a new boutique in zeees city."
"Miss Du Teddois, I do apologize, but we are rather in a rush," explained McCuggy.
"Aha, I understand monsieurs. Well eef yuu ever 'av ze time to come and veeseet, my boutique is just on Alexanderplatz. Next to the information centre. My boutique is selling ze jewellery."
The three heroes looked at each other. And then looked at Pinka Du Teddois.
"What monsieurs? Why are you looking at me like zat?"
"Pinka - you don't know anything about a ring do you?" asked McSooty
"Ohh, a' ave lots of rings in ma 'umble shop!" said Pinka
"Come to ma shop and 'ave some o' orange!"
The group followed Pinka to her shop and they sat down to a cup of hot orange.
"What type of ring are you looking for?"asked Pinka
"Well, it has a emerald diamond on it and is very smooth" said McCuggy
"A' do not 'ave the ring but mon frere might" said Pinka
"He was in the info shop that was next to this shop, when he got in there he saw a alligator and a rag doll trying to force the shop lady to give them 'the map' or 'the ring, they saw mon frere and then just rushed ou' the door, a' do not know anything more."
"Aye!, I know what yer mean" shouted McCuggy "There is a old Scottish riddle that goes like this"

Ye, who finds the map will also find the ring
But if ye evil ye won't be ye king

"The villains thought it was that the map came with the ring but I think the map leads to the ring, but the map was destroyed in the bomb"
"I am completely lost" said Hash Brown
"But the map was not destroyed in the bomb ma pumpkins" said Pinka. "I 'av it 'ere! But do not tell anyone!" Pinka took out a crumpled brownish tatty piece of paper out
of her pocket.
"Pinka!" said Alistair McSooty "You've had the map all the time!"
"Ah oui mon petit fleur. And I do not 'av ze ring but ze map points to where ze reeng ees."
"Give it to us!" remarked Hash Brown
"Ah ah aah! Wait a leetl moment. Yuu can 'av ze map on one condition! I want Alistair to take me out to cafe to av cake and funny jam-icing-gone wrong bun things "
"But Pinka, that's all in the past" said McSooty.
"Go on McSooty" said Hash Brown. "If it's to get the map."
So McSooty took Pinka out for some cake at some tearooms in a craft centre. In the end he ended up taking McCuggy and Hash Brown too, because they got bored wondering around the
streets of Berlin. And Hash Brown was eager to eat cake.
"So," said Pinka, biting into a mouthful of silver ball-decorated cake.
"Were you listening when I said mon frere possibly as ze reeeng? Look at ze map. It shows that the ring is somewhere near the Circus Youth Hostel. Mon Frere works there!"
"This is very scrumptious cake" explained Hash Brown "I'm sorry, you were saying?"
"Never mind lets just get to the Youth Hostel now, and quick" said McCuggy in a hurry
"So what is your brother called Pinka?" said Hash Brown.
"he is called "The Black Forest" said Pinka
"Why is that?" asked McSooty
"He's mad about Schwarzawaldkirschtorte (Black Forest Cherry Cake) but his proper name is Herr Floregen, or Herr Florie for short"
"Then lets get going then!" said McCuggy. So they went out of the cafe and went up Rosenthalerstraße and finally arrived at the Circus Youth Hostel.
"Entschuldigen Sie bitte," sagte McCuggy. "Wir suchen den Bruder meiner Freundin hier. Er heißt Herr Floregen".
"Moment mal," said the receptionist, as every single receptionist says. The receptionist came back. "Er arbeitet jetzt im Bar - darüber."
"What's he saying?" asked Hash Brown to McCuggy.
"Oui, what iz 'e sayin'?" asked Pinka Du Teddois.
"Florrie's working in the bar".So they went over to the bar.
"Pinka!" cried Florrie
"Oh my little black forest gateau! 'Ow I 'av missed yuu." and they hugged. Pinka then introduced everybody. "Florrie, this is Alistair, also known as McSooty. This is Hashington
Brown-Teddy, also known as Hash Brown. And this is McCuggy, also known as er... McCuggy. Everybody, this is my brother Floregen Du Teddois. Otherwise known as Florrie, or Schwarzwaldkirschtorte."
"Charmed to meet you."
"Delighted, I'm sure."
"Anyway," said McCuggy. "Let's get down to business. Florrie, we believe that you saw Raggia and Jolene in the tourist information centre searching for the ring and the map. Pinka has the map, and we believe you know where the ring is - it's somewhere near this youth hostel?"
"That's all very correct. In fact, the ring is right here!" said Herr Florie.
"Great! lets see it then!" said McSooty
"What?!" said Herr Florie "Ohhhhhhhhhh, I see, you thought I had the ring!"
"Yes, we thought you had the ring" said Hash Brown
"Well, I do, in a way" said Herr Florie "You, see I hid it under the bar via a secret passage way because a Alligator and a Rag Doll kept on trying to get the ring. But I sealed
the door up yesterday!"
"So how do we get to the ring?" asked Hash Brown, getting rather impatient.
"Oh I just remembered my name is Hamish!" cried McCuggy, allowing Pinka Du Teddois to reintroduce him.
"Follow me everyone" said Herr Florrie and everyone followed him down through the depths of the youth hostel; past the entertainment show starring Pop Idol Finalists, past the "Honestly There is a Pair of Jeans here that will fit you" shop, and down into the secret passage.
"Here we go then, folks, I hid the ring just...." Herr Florrie stopped in shock.
"It's gone!" he cried.
"Look!" said McSooty, "there go the alligator and the rag doll, quick follow them!"
"Oh la la! Zey av ze reeeng!" wailed Pinka. "All is lost!" "Comon, All you wee ones" shouted Hash Brown. So they all hurried down the passage way following the Green blob they could see in the misty darkness.
"Oh, ma petit pours!" panted Pinka "We will never catch up!" And Pinka had indeed said right, for they could not catch up with the villains on such rough ground and such bad
light.
"We can't give up now!" said McSooty
"Herr Florie"said McCuggy "Do you know where the secret passage leads to?"
"Of course I do, I built it to try and escape out of East Berlin! It leads to the other side of the wall and comes out somewhere near the Zoo is now."said Herr Florie
"Then lets get going!"said McSooty. They all ran as fast as their little legs could carry them.
All except Cug, who doesn't have any legs, but still manages to move at ease. It's one of the mysteries of life really. They ran and ran through sewers and other smelly places, hoping that they would be following the villains.
"We must be in West Berlin now" said Hash Brown
"Yes, you're probably right" said Herr Florrie. "Let's go up through this trapdoor."
They could hear noise through the door but opened it anyway, and clambered out. They were in a club. Cheesy German songs were playing out along with classic Steps anthems. A girl with a brightly coloured belt walked past. "Are you having fun!" she screamed at the top of her voice.
"Yeah!" said McSooty, trying to fit in with the crowd, and hoping that no one would suspect that four bears and a sheet of tartan-dyed material, all very smelly, were purposely out
having a good time at a disco. Up on the stage there was a crab like creature, dancing
away like there was no tomorrow.
"Non!" exclaimed Pinka "Eet caant be! Why, zat crab ees none otzer tzan Fleur ze Disco Crab!”
"Who?" questioned Hash Brown.
"Ohhhhhh, E' is ma old schoooooll chum! E' was the best dancer in the whoooole of de schooooool"said Pinka happily
The song finished and Fleur got of the shiny stage and walked towards them.
"Have you heard the latest!" said Fleur to Pinka ignoring the fact that she was standing with 2 smelly Teddy bears and a mucky piece of material.
"What ma petit friend?!" replied Pinka
"I am going to be on the next Eurovision! I will be singing and dancing for the Former Yugoslavia Republic Of Macedonia!" said Fleur.
"Wow! Alastair likes the Former Yugoslavia Republic Of Macedonia don't you?!"said Pinka
"Ohhhhh, yes!" said McSooty
"That's very good Fleur, but we must press on. We have to get back a ring you see. We have to reach the Zoo quickly"
"Oh" said Fleur "Do you want to use my private limo? Or are you O.K to run?"
"We'll take the limo!" said Hash Brown.
"Well bon voyage my friends, I'll get Christine or Richard,
one of the chauffeurs, to get the limo ready."
Fleur called to the chauffeurs and they quickly got the Limo
ready. Pinka had a little time to catch up on things with Fleur and McSooty and McCuggy had some Scottish Whisky from the bar.
"Ah! The Limo is ready! Off you go!" exclaimed Fleur.
"Tara!"
"Go Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia! Yeeeeeeeaaah!" shouted McSooty, and with that, the four friends got in the limo.

*****

In another part of the town, in fact it was the badger enclosure at Berlin Zoo, Jolene Alligatorov and Raggia Dolina had stopped.
"OK, Let's do it" said Jolene. He took out the ring, smooth and emerald, and held it in his hands. "We have it! It is ours!" he gave an evil laugh. In fact his laugh sounded so evil that the ring itself noticed that it was evil. And the ring knew the famous rhyme.
"Ouch!" screamed Jolene.
A badger ( badger number 64 to be precise) had just bitten him in the ankle.

* * * * * * * *
Meanwhile Hash Brown, McCuggy, McSooty and Pinka were roaring down the bridge that took them across the river and across into the Zoo.
"Do you think we will make it in time" said Pinka
"No, but we might make it in a limo!" said McCuggy. They all looked at him.
"It was a pun" said McCuggy. They all looked at him.
"Never mind" said McCuggy "Full speed ahead!"
* * * * * * * *
Back at the Zoo Raggia and Jolene had got out of the Badger enclosure and were hiding behind a tree with monkeys in it.
"So how do I get rid of slugs?" asked a student named Graham to a zoo keeper who was walking past.
"Right, now that's over I can get one with putting this ring on!"said Jolene.
He gave another evil laugh. He put the ring on....

*******

"There they are" shouted Hash Brown. The group had just run through the gates of the Zoo and were fortunate enough to be running past the guinea pig enclosure which was just next to the badger enclosure. Jolene had put the ring on.
"He's got the ring on!" exclaimed McSooty.
A huge light erupted from the ring, which knocked Jolene back and made the group of friends stand still with surprise. A voice came out from the ring.

Ye, who finds the map will also find the ring
But if ye evil ye won't be ye king

Everyone gasped.
"Jolene, you are the weakest link. Goodbye."
Jolene lay on the floor in a daze. Raggia stood helplessly at his side. McSooty called the Police (what he called them we do not know) and McCuggy went over to Jolene, bent down, and took the ring off his finger. He looked at the ring, looked at Jolene, and then looked at all his friends and various passers by. He took a deep breath and then.....
"McCuggy!!!" shouted Hash Brown " I have just remembered why the ring exploded like that! There is a old folks tale that the Scottish ring had the power to think on it's own when it is needed and can protect itself when it needs to!"
"Thank-you Hash Brown for that insight" said McCuggy "But I was about to put on the ring"
"But McCuggy"said Pinka "You don't 'ave any fingers"
"Good point" said McCuggy. He looked at the ring, it was dull and the emerald was musty in the dark fog.
"Well I will have to just wear it round what would be my neck, anyone got a piece of string?"
"Yeah, I've got this piece of green and gold encrusted piece of string that says "reunited we hold, to the true Scottish" said Hash Brown
He looked around to see the company staring at him with there mouths wide open.
"What?" said Hash Brown. They stared at him further.
"Oh what is it? Is there a slug crawling over me or something?"
"No, no" said McCuggy. "That piece of string goes with the ring! (Which rhymes too)."
"That was going to be your next task for the Scottish Government! To find the piece of string!" said McSooty.
"Where did you get it from?" asked McCuggy.
"What this old piece of string? It was my grandfather's. It was passed down from generation to generation, you know, just as a nice piece of string. I carry it around with me
so that whatever I do, I know that all the Hashington Browns before me have had this piece of string - and, well it's just nice isn't it?"
"But then the ring; it doesn't belong to me," said McCuggy, "it belongs completely to you! All your debt problems and everything are gone! It's your family's ring!"
"It is?" queried Hash Brown.
"Put eet on!" exclaimed Pinka.
And so it was Hashington Brown who put the ring on the piece of string and then hung it round his neck.
‘Reunited we hold, to the true Scottish - the Brown family’ said the ring, who by now we know to be able to think for itself.
"Ooooh, 'Ashington Braaaan. You aar ze true Monarch of ze glen!" Pinka squealed with delight.
"Let's go home to Scotland!" shouted McCuggy
So the group got on a MaufAir flight back to England and then to Scotland.
As they boarded the plane in the airport they saw a whole bunch of German people, one of them was called Teresa.
"I'm still a wee bit confused" said McSooty as they started flying over the border of France.
"Was it not McCuggy's debt problems and the Browns were just the groundskeepers?"
"Yes, it was but according to my portable Scottish Family Tree" said McCuggy, who always had a family tree ready for times just like this. " My great great great grandfather married Lady Violet Brown, the most lovely lady there was. The Brown's ring was given to the McCuggy's as a token of peace. This has been forgotten until now."
"Sooooo, I’m not really the Monarch of the Glen" said Hash Brown, a bit disappointed
"Oh yes you are!"said McCuggy " My great x3 grandfather left the Browns 16,000 acres of land! It is all yours!"
"Oh, goody!" said Hashington Brown McTeddy happily.
As they were coming out of the Airport at Glasgow they heard the news that Fleur the Disco Crab had won the Eurovision. Suddenly McCuggy realized something.
"I'm still all tartaned up!" they had forgotten about it in 'till now. So McCuggy went to have a bath.
"That was a very good adventure!" said McCuggy as they sat down for tea and crumpets.
"Aye"
"Wee monsieur"
And so are story ends here.

(it really ends here)
