And Tweedle Dum
Geoff says ‘Stepping into the clearing you see two rotund figures wrestling with each other, seemingly trying to keep hold of a rattle and force the other to let go. They stop as you approach and turn little, piggy eyes upon Brenda.
“Stop there” says the first, “You’re not passing this way”. “No how” says the second.
The Tweedles are unpleasant urchins who move their massive bulk together to block your path whichever way you go.’
For a couple of big lads, they both move surprisingly quickly, and Brenda is not sure if she can take both on at once. So, she backs up down the path and heads back towards the goblins. All the time they are making threats and promises as she disappears from view.
The goblins must have heard the Tweedles calling Brenda names as she returns to the crossroads and they leap out all at the same time. Through all the poking and prodding, one of the goblin calls out in delight and raises the horn from her sack, high above his head as he runs aways. All of the other goblins laugh and chase after the lucky goblin.

Brenda picks herself off and dusts herself off. There is nothing for it but to carry on and heads down the other fork at the crossroads.
Brenda eats the golden apple she has been carrying.
Painting is definitely start to lag behind at the moment, so I could only get to the contrast paint paint stage which I am using as a base coat to speed up the painting for this challenge.
