Lazy Lucy

Picking up all the tennis balls, what a nuisance! And the way to avoid this chore? By returning all the balls to the opposite side of the court. Easier said than done, but Lucy isn't one to give up.

Licking a whole load of stamps to stick them on, what a nuisance! It's best to leave such a task to an expert and who better than Flinki, a nice companion with a long lolling tongue!

Taking all of these things to the street market, what a nuisance! Why not just take a photo; it's a lot easier to carry. Snappy snap and it's in the bag!

Waving your arms around everywhere trying to fly-fish, what a nuisance! Playing with a kite and a cow, now that's much more fun. Happy fishing Lucy!

Lifting a heap of leaves to find a hairclip, what a nuisance! Lucy embarks on developing the first "hairclip detector"!

Singing for hours to get her little brother to sleep, what a nuisance! Lucy works out a better technique: the automatic lullaby.

Digging the sand to build a castle, what a nuisance! There has to be a lazier way! And there is- with the help of a dinghy, a dog, her little brother and above all lots of imagination!

Taking the bin out every day, what a nuisance! It would be so much better if the bin could take itself out! Take itself out? What an excellent idea!

Hanging out the washing in the garden, what a nuisance! Especially when there are so many fun games to play nearby. What will inspire Lucy for her latest challenge?

Having to carry a parasol on the beach, what a nuisance! There has to be another way of protecting yourself from the sun. But of course! All you have to do is make use of your own shadow!
