“
Yea
right, you
’
d just crash it if you had
one,
”
replied Jonny before Will descended on him, pushing him
over into the shallow water.

“
Oh no,
isn
’
t this where we started out? laughed Louisa.
“
Come on you
two, act your age and mind that head of yours, Will, you know
you
’
re meant to be taking it easy.
”

“
Sorry
mum,”
said the two boys in
unison.

“
Say, rich boy, what are you going to do with your
millions?
”
asked Will.

“
Well, I
’
ve spoken to my dad
and he says I can give each of you guys some as a kind of thank you
for all you
’
ve done,”
smiled Eric.

“
Wow, thanks Eric,
”
said Louisa.
“
Hey, Jonny, you could
buy that new boat you fancied.
”

Jonny looked
thoughtful.
“
Nah, I think I
’
ll keep the one
I
’
ve got, it means a lot to me. I might get some new
sails for it though. Hey, w
ho
’
d have guessed your granddad would have hidden
the money under the old outside toilet, Eric?
”

“
Seems a
stinking
place to dump
it,
”
joked Will, to which he received a well-earned thump from
Jonny.

“
Hey,
I
’
m famished,
”
said Eric.
“
Anyone fancy a Pot
Noodle?
”

“
No!”
yelled three voices in
unison.
