Tomorrow's Monday. We have got to work on Monday. We've got to get up early in the
morning. We always have to get up at 6.30. I go into the kitchen and make tea for the family.
My son, John, is 4 (years old). He can wash his neck and face. But I have to help him. My
husband is going to put on a clean shirt. He always has to look nice, so I have to wash one of
his shirts every day. He leaves home at 7.45 because he has to be at the bank at 8.30. He
doesn't walk, he takes a bus round the corner. Mrs. Green comes at 7.55 and I let her in. She is
going to wash the windows and clean the rooms. I leave her money on the table. The day
before yesterday I forgot the money and she was very angry with me. At 8 I leave home, too.

in the morning. She doesn't like the big supermarkets. "Supermarkets are too modern and
impersonal" - she says. She likes talking to the grocer, the butcher and the baker. There aren't
very many customers in the shop in the morning. They know my mother well, and they are
very polite to her. She always meets her old friend in the dairy. They usually talk for a long
time. That's why she doesn't want me to order the bread or milk. I did the shopping this

Everybody went to Spain. The gangsters went by train and the others went by air. Hunter took
the train, too, as he didn’t want to miss Henry and his friends. He and Milligan had agreed
that he would follow the gangsters to the collector’s house and then phone Milligan to tell him
the address. Milligan had promised to get in touch with the Spanish police, as soon as he
arrived at Barcelona in order to arrange everything for the arrest of the thieves.
Stan, who was anxious to get the reward, had joined Milligan. They both put up at the Grand
Hotel. Milligan suggested that Stan should have a rest but Stan was too worried. He said he
would go out for a sightseeing tour, then he left and phones Pickup to make an appointment
with him.
Dick and Gwen flew to Barcelona, too. They had been quarrelling all the way. Gwen thought
she was much better at bargaining than Dick so she should do the talking with Pickup. Dick
wouldn’t agree to this at first but in the end he had to accept that Gwen was always right.
Pickup had no idea what the police and Dick were planning to do. He had had no message
from Henry either but he had read about the robbery in the papers and he knew Henry would
come to him with the pictures first. He had quite a few pictures in his collection which he had
got through Henry. Henry usually came between 11 and 12 in the morning. He did arrive at a
quarter to 12 with two friends whom Pickup had never seen before. Henry handed over the
envelope, which Pickup could hardly open in excitement. He had been trying to get the
picture for years without success. As he looked at the picture he saw at once that it was a
copy. He felt very angry. This was the first time Henry had tried to sell him a copy. He
decided to show Henry what the name Pickup meant in the art collectors’ world.
