Some Saucepanman Poetry

Two slaps on his nose
Two whacks on his ankles

Mr Watzisname with a beard...

The Treefolk - MoonFace

That's Moonface, along with the children Jo, Bessie, Fanny and some friends.

The slippery-slip (explained in the last post) starts from the centre of MoonFace's house... The dark hole you see at the centre of the following photo is the 'Slippery-Slip'.
