Tom's potato zapper and new friend

By Tom I'm having fun in the countryside. (Telscombe near Lewes East Sussex.) There is another squirrel here and some cats. I have made a friend called Lars who lives across the road. He goes to school for six hours on most days. Mum bought me a potato zapper! It's like a gun with potato bullets. Lars knows all about them but I had never seen one before. We are going to the beach today. P.S. I'm glad Mrs Martin is much nicer than Miss Trunchball from Matilda!
