THREE WITCHES

The following morning, three new witches arrived in Smallbridge.

The trio marched purposefully up the high street, all armed with large shopping baskets, one of which was on wheels and contained a large yellow teapot. Elsie, had she been there, would have recognised them immediately. Wendy Snipe, the Wise Woman of Clackham Common; Maureen, the Hag of Heaving Heath and Madame Shirley, Fortune Teller to the Stars. Elsie had met them in the Sorcerer’s Bazaar.

Wendy was the plump one with the grey curls and beaming smile. Maureen was thin and mournful with the traditional black robes. Tiny Shirley was dressed like some sort of mad clown and went nowhere without her teapot.

The residents of Smallbridge were once again taken by surprise. Witch sightings in Smallbridge were rare. Certainly not three at a time. People’s jaws dropped open. People whispered. People nudged each other. Some of the ruder ones pointed.

The children were hugely excited. A magic shop, a tower with a rude raven, something called Tickle Dust and now more witches! This was the best week ever! It certainly beat climbing on the sheep.
