The Stranger...

By Sam Norman, age 11

 The town was just, at a glance..... abnormal. I mean, for starters, a town where you can stand in the middle of it and not see anything, is abnormal, right? That's not all. As a stranger, to see it, you need permission from at least one of its sages to do so. Once you obtain this, you would notice that everyone there has a luminescent lizard on or following their person and a bright beret placed jauntily on their head. But back to the town. The houses were lopsided, slanted, upside down and some of them, well, some of them had parts that were sticking out into another world. One of them (and this is truly alarming) did not even seem to exist at all! It also appears that all the pubs, shops and restaurants are made completely out of sounds and vibrations. Because of this everything around and inside them seems slow and blurred. Every so often, especially when you are a stranger, you will find that someone will swop your socks for a pair of truly distressing purple sausages. But the residents don't seem to notice. Oh and by the way, if you do want to find this chaotic cluster of wonky abodes, then just walk through the first cave you find whilst wearing frilly pants on your head. The residents won't mind.
