The Story

Soppy Simon's Mum has come to watch him play cricket and Walt spots an opportunity to wind him up. Walt suggests that his kit is full of cotton wool to protect him from the hard ball. He then spots that Simon has normal knee pads, and suggests that a shield might be more appropriate.

Next up Walt lends him a sweater to wrap around like a scarf to stop him getting the shivers. Before the match starts Simon is seen talking to his Mum, and next point Simon is batting hiding behind the wickets.

He's quite safe though, Walt can't throw in a straight line!
