This is easy. Just continue the story - funny, scary, silly, whatever you like. I'll start us off:

Jack watched as the Santa Claus Express drew into the station. When the man in red stepped down from the train, Jack left his hiding place and..........

Slowly the sparkles morphed (?) into a human form. ' I'm not coming down the Strand with you and I don't like bananas', said Cliff Richard, for it was he. I'm looking for the......

"Let's all go down the Strand, have a banana, let's all go down the Strand.." Everybody sang and danced around in a circle, with the wand hovering overhead showering sparkles of gold and silver everywhere...

embracing Hank, who immediately calmed down and declared ....

"Peace and love, man" said Jack stepping through the doorway and....

'Where's that imposter who was on at the beginning of this thread claiming to be me? I'll have his guts for guitar strings...angry'

Juliette Mon 15-Dec-14 15:53:40

It was Hank Marvin. The remaining Shadows stood open mouthed while Hank rushed forward shouting.....

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 15:19:46

um...ah..guess who?

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 15:18:25

and who should step from the shadows...er...

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 15:06:04

...and the door to the tardis-like machine, which had fairy lights twinkling all around it, opened ever so slowly...

"The wand, taken by surprise, twirled a few times in the air, shedding golden stars".....

That is so pretty.

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 15-Dec-14 14:53:53

Go on then! Don't stop now. What happened?!!!

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 14:19:05

red, green, yellow and blue lights flashed...a moaning sound startled him somewhat...

papaoscar Mon 15-Dec-14 13:03:52

What Jack was about to find out was that the suitcase was a Tardis-like time machine. He reached out to open it up....

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 12:55:58

Could someone have stowed themselves away in it...

Ana Mon 15-Dec-14 12:32:56

but it did seem very heavy for such a posh suitcase!

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 12:25:32

as he was of a nervous disposition...

soop Mon 15-Dec-14 12:24:43

a very posh suitcase on wheels that he'd won on ebay for a pound...he hadn't checked what was inside...

FarNorth Mon 15-Dec-14 10:39:06

Meanwhile Jack was trudging along the A1, with....

No need for a hero!

The Fairy used her magic might to wrest open the dishwasher door and as the water wooshed over the kitchen floor and out of the back door carrying all the devils with it, she grabbed the wand and whisked away into the night...yet again!

papaoscar Sun 14-Dec-14 22:10:48

...they flung the door open, grabbed the poor wand and rammed her firmly into the tool tray. Then those devils set the machine to maximum squirt, squeeze and douche for ever. Can anything be done to save poor wand from a fate worse than death? Will a hero arrive in time to save her?

NotTooOld Sun 14-Dec-14 20:30:45

Oh, yes, we all did! I'll continue:

One night the Fairy was woken by noises in her scullery. Creeping down the stairs in the dark, she spotted the wand beating the dishwasher in a fury. The wand, however, did not know that the dishwasher was possessed by devils and..........

NanKate Sun 14-Dec-14 20:25:34

Oh yes they did !

NanKate Sun 14-Dec-14 20:24:36

We posted together hmm

papaoscar Sun 14-Dec-14 20:24:33

Oh, no they didn't!

Fell down in a swoon, and was rescued by two passing pantomime queens who picked her up, dusted her down, and took her back to the theatre, with her wand, to take part in the show.
