we have the great glass lift to speed things up!

Jump in, my dear


Charlie, jump in! You too, Grandpa Joe, sir! No, no, after you! That’s
the way! Now then! This time I shall choose the button we are going
to press!’ Mr Wonka’s bright twinkling blue eyes rested for a
moment on Charlie’s face.
Something crazy is going to happen now, Charlie thought. But he
wasn’t frightened. He wasn’t even nervous. He was just terrifically
excited. And so was Grandpa Joe. The old man’s face was shining
with excitement as he watched every move that Mr Wonka made.
Mr Wonka was reaching for a button high up on the glass ceiling of
the lift. Charlie and Grandpa Joe both craned their necks to read
what it said on the little label beside the button.
It said… UP AND OUT.
‘Up and out,’ thought Charlie. ‘What sort of a room is that?’
Mr Wonka pressed the button.
The glass doors closed.
‘Hold on!’ cried Mr Wonka.
