'WHITTLEMORE
MANNERS'
Scene
– in the stately but spooky gardens of Whittlemore Manor
Chorus: One fine day in the middle of the night,
When the fog was unusually thick,
A family named 'Whittle' was at a loose end…
(The Whittles all try to think of something to do)
All: Hmmm…
Polly: I know – we can go for a picnic!
Barney: What a spiffing idea.
Chorus: Yelled Uncle Barnard.
Burma: I like it!
Chorus: Cried Great Aunt Burmus
Pat: I've got some sandwiches.
Maggie: I've got some scones.
Betty: And I've got some tea in a thermos.
Mary-Lou: But where shall we go for this meal alfresco?
Prue: I don't know.
Pat: Let's ask Pollyanna.
Polly: Put on your jacket 'cos if you can hack it
We'll picnic at Whittlemore Manor.
Chorus: And so they set off with their picnic in hand
A family bigger than little.
There were uncles and aunts and cousins and co
But collectively they were…
All: The Whittles!
