In afternoon, she was politely told to go out until tea-time. 'You mustn't see what we're doing,' said phyllis. 'It's a surprise.' Bobbie went into the garden , and then she walked across the fields.

There was just enough time for Bobbie to make herself tidy before they called her into the front room.
