Can you guess how this happend?
The house boat was small and red with smooth gleaming surfaces. The brass name plate on the front read “Fruitful Harvest”. So it would be a surprise to see the bow ripped and scratched. The boat seemed to be trapped in an eddy with the bow sticking into the shore of a fast flowing river.
The inside of the boat was crammed with pictures, some of which were unfinished. There were paints and paint brushes littering the floor. There was a math box and burger package floating in the water outside the boat.
On the deck you could see very small dusty windows lining the outside of the boat and the rope that would normally tie the boat up was snapped. The end of the rope was blackened and smelt of smoke.
Near the ripped rope, there was a Barbeque that had been knocked over. There were still some burning embers in it.

Who do you think lives in this caravan?
There was a Caravan City by the river. One of the caravans stood out. It had two bedrooms and was surounded by gardens. The caravan was for a family of three people. It was long and narrow and coloured white.
The inside was cream colour and there were red spots. When I opened the green front door, I saw some bits of coloured paper. I went to the living room and on the table I saw a tape and scissors. On the floor were bits of wrapping paper. There was a sticky label on the kitchen table. The floor was all dirty. A bottle was lying on the table and the water covered the floor.
In the frst bedroom there was a football lying on the floor. On the bed there was an invitation to the party that night. There was a jacket and a scarf on the bed and in the bedroom there was a photo of the family.
In the bathroom, the sink was all dirty and there was no soap. There was no bath top in it - it only had a shower. The bathroom was painted blue. The window was opened. the weather outside was windy and cloudy.

Can you guess what sort of person lives in this house.
The Flat
It was a wet and thundery day. I was wondering why I got called out here so I walked down the corridor of the flat. Then I realised the door at the end of the corridor was broken. There were bits of wood everywhere.
Behind it was a massive grey rock but it was strange I would have thought that the neighbours heard it. So I pushed the door aside and went in. It was breezy and some strange flickering white stuff was flying around the living room it was because of the breezy wind coming from somewhere in the flat, the pieces of paper looked like homework. One piece of paper floated right beside my feet and it was THE SUN. For some strange reason one half of the headline was ripped of it said…………. BUSTED.
When I turned round the of the living room I saw a load of golden ice trophies and certificates but the centre trophy was missing. I heard a noise in the kitchen. It was coming from the answer machine . “Hi it’s me. Have you seen the headlines of THE SUN? Be prepared just in case.”
Directly opposite was a broken window and the middle shiny, golden statue was out side some one had tried to smashed the window with it to get out. in the corner of the living room was TV stand but no TV on top of it. The wires were in a huge jumble behind it.

Can you solve the mystery?
A red car stood in a field near Heathrow Airport with a bright white caravan attached to it. The car was a 5-door Vauxhall Corsa. Near the drivers door there was a very deep dent. The caravan looked in fairly good condition. As I walked to the back of the I saw a bandage lying on the ground. It had dark red blood on it.
When I went inside, I saw a small kitchen in front of me. A strong smell of fish and chips made me go in. On the floorI saw some chips and fishes lying around with a pan beside them. I went through the kitchen to the living room.
The tv was left on, on channel CNN. Beside it I saw a small light brown envelope saying “To Mr and Mrs Smith”. I looked inside and there was a letter. “I’ll arrive at Heathrow Airport at 5:00pm. Be there to pick me up”. I continued going through the living room and I saw 3 bedrooms in front of me.
A sound came frome one of the bedrooms. I walked into it. I saw a framed photo of a married couple beside a double bed. There were clothes lying around.
I heard a noise coming from the kitchen I ran in panic to the kitchen. There was a blue digital clock saying “5:00 o’clock pm, 5:00 o’clock pm”. Then I heard another noise. Someone was knocking on the door.

Can you solve this mytery?
One afternoon Miss Smith went out shopping at the supermarket. She spent along time looking for fish and meat. Back at home someone was in Miss Smiths house. They threw clothes every where - covers on the floor, mattresses on the floor, wardrobes open and empty. The lamp was knocked over and smashed. Contents of drawers littered the floor. The jewellery box on the bed was empty.

The 20th birth day
On the street of Dane-finch no “15s” windows were decorated with congratulations!! The garden had a bird bath and around it were statues dressed in red, green and white. I entered the house because the door was unlocked. Inside the corridor there was a rug saying “welcome!!” The wallpaper was pink with a hint of red. To the right of me was a calendar, on June the 4th it said “20th birthday!” A tick tock then suddenly cuckoo!-cuckoo! Coming from the living room and that’s when I jumped. So I went into the living room.
The time was 2:00pm (14:00). There were many boxes covered with wrapping paper and the words “happy 20th birth day!” and covered with the number 20. There was a picture of a family. There was a boy, girl and a couple. I sniffed, I smelled a chocolaty smell, it was delicious, not just a chocolaty smell, a sweet chocolaty smell. So I went into the kitchen.
There were dark purple tiles on the surface of the walls and wooden, laminated floor. The ceiling had a fancy light with plastic diamonds and rubies. I heard a “thump!” upstairs right above the kitchen ceiling. I was puzzled, no one was in the house …I thought. So I ran up stairs I went into the first room I saw before I entered the room I saw a sign on the door it read “This is Michaels room do not enter, but i still went inside. The room smelt of sweaty disgusting pairs of football socks. I tripped over a pile of clothes. Just as I tried to get up, I saw a cubed box under the bed. It was covered in a pink wrapping paper. Then I got back up on my feet. The smell was so bad that I left the room. I went into the next room I. I looked under the bed; unfortunately this room had no cubed boxes or any kind. “Bang! Thump! Bang! Thump!” The attic ladder had fallen down! So I climbed up. I switched the lamp on. A shiny object caught my attention. I approached it. It had seemed to be a trophy. It was carved, “player of the year Michael 2005-2006”.

What kind of person do you think lives here?
As I was walking by I saw a shiny 10p. I turned to pick it up. I stood up and saw a large house. It was neatly bricked with granite. Large windows were set out in rows of 3. The mansion seemed to have 3 floors. It had a large door with a carving of a huge 1 on it, decorated by carvings of cats. As I looked through the huge black gates twice the size of me I could also see a very long driveway with 5 expensive cars in it.
I rang the doorbell to comment on the magnificent house, there was no reply. I rang twice more and waited. As I waited I counted the number of alarms on the front of the house – 4 in total. I stood for a few minutes but no one answered. I decided just to go in.
I entered into a long, narrow hallway with small ornament lining the birch wood shelves. A noise caught my attention. It was coming from a room to my left. I slowly crept in and realised it was just a coal fire making crackling noises. Above the fire was a painting of a man with a cat. Under the painting was a small plaque with Roger and Seven, 1999 engraved into it. The artist had signed her name at the bottom of the painting, Margaret Gauld. A red leather sofa sat in the centre of the room with a pink feathery cat bed next to it.
Above the door through which I had entered the room was a framed lottery ticket and the final number on the sheet was 7.
In the hallway was a large crystal vase with 3 glass flowers in it. Next to the vase was a small blue door with 6 small rippled glass panes. Through the door was a large table, and all types of kitchen machinery and utensils. Hanging on the door was a blue kitchen apron. The name Margaret had been stitched on with white thread. Above the sink was a large window that looked to a spectacular back garden. It was filled with exotic flowers and perfectly cut grass. Small garden ornaments were dotted all around the garden, and small camouflage motion sensor cameras were also placed there.
I turned at a great speed because of a quiet noise. I noticed a Monet calendar with 12th September marked Ciao!
