Mr ketchup first trip on a tram ..

Mr ketchup was ready and waiting for the first tram to run to the Burgh street airport. It had been years of utter chaos with all the road works and the endless track being laid on every road in Butter-worth town.
" About time too My feet are killing me" replied Mr Ketchup."
"Yes,' answered a blearily eyed Haggis.
"Oh I do wish that these people would stop shoveling snapped Mr Ketchup."
"Be patient otherwise we will all land up on the floor. said,' Haggis."
"It is hardly surprising Look at everyone all packed in like sardines." groaned Mr Ketchup."
"oh Mr Ketchup why do you have to complain about the least we thing. Torn-face Tomato frowned."
The tram took ages before reaching the first station and poor old Mr Ketchup was desperate for a cold drink.
He certainly looked annoyed in fact he looked like he'd pass out at any second. No one could get moving and soon
It would be time for the journey to end. But Oh dear Mr Ketchup felt dizzy stars were floating in front of his eyes.
slowly he lost his balance and landed on the next lot of passengers, Knocking them to the floor. Haggis looked like he had seen a ghost. Well as you can imagine it wasn't a good experience For Mr ketchup and his friends.
The conductor stopped the tram while the other passengers got off in disgust making complaints to the conductor.




Mr Ketchup slowly came around while Haggis returned with a glass of cold water.
" Reek ...  what happened, My head feels a bit funny. moaned Mr Ketchup."
Neaps and Haggis hardly had time to explain when the ambulance arrived to take him to the hospital.
Mr Ketchup made a big fuss about lying on the stretcher but Haggis insisted on it.
He lay winching all  the way to the hospital. because of all the bumpy roads. They shouldn't of spent   all of
that money on the trams It is shocking. It would have been far better to fix all these holes in the road..he thought to himself.

After a long day Mr ketchup climbed into bed and fell fast asleep. The very next morning the incident appeared
in the local news paper. The transport were blamed for over crowding the tram. The council were looking into
the health and safety rules. Due to the very serious  injures that Poor old Mr Ketchup had suffered He would
be in line for a huge pay out so he thought.
Wasn't until the first hearing in the court that He would be only a pittance.
" Well i might of known it was to good to be true. If they think that they can fob me off with sweets that have got another coming. He smirked."
"What do you have in mind Haggis looking worried."
"JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE, Mr ketchup grinning."

The very next day Mr Ketchup got up early by midday he had written half a dozen letters to very important people.
One too the prime-minster etc.
Within a matter of a week he received the letter that he longed for, inviting Mr Ketchup to the prime-minsters
office.
"Mr ketchup couldn't find his best suit  Oh bother he thought the only one i do have has shrunk at the legs.
It looks like my cat has died in them." he wailed."
"Oh just look at you Laughed Neaps and haggis."
"Why are you laughing at me." frowned Mr ketchup."
" You're going dressed like a tramp,  roaring with laughter."
" You do look rather strange Neaps Looking away trying not to laugh again."
"Well  I suppose so If you say so He Nodded."
"Look why don't you all come down to mine and i''ll sort you out smiled Torn-face tomato." 
 Mr ketchup couldn't believe what he was hearing Had Torn-face turned over a new leave. or maybe she
had a soft spot in her. An half hour later Mr ketchup looked fit to see the queen.
neatly dressed in a tweed jacket and matching trousers. and a white shirt with a green tie.
He looked ever so smart.
Mr ketchup whistled but oh dear he never noticed the the cat tail and went flying and he landed right
in the cats dinner Oh dear it looks like Mr ketchup won't be going anywhere for the time being.....
What do you think.?

Poor Mr. Ketchup--he never seems to have any good luck. He hardly got anything for his injuries, and he couldn't go see the Prime Minister.

We have endless road work here, but not so much spent on tracks. I really like Mr. Ketchup and the predicaments he gets into...
