The

|
|
|
1988 - A message from the
past... |
|
|
|
The families of Edmond and Willum had prospered,
living in Wiltshire had meant instant acceptance into the middle classes
and prosperous living. As the decades went on, Edmond, sensing death wrote
down the rules and regulations of the game, refining it into a more
futuristic form. He buried the instructions in a can of baked beans in the
attic of his house, ready for his future relatives to discover.
It
was 1988, and the boys Edward and William Hall were digging around in
their attic (in a scene very much like the one from the hit movie 'The
Goonies'), when they stumbled upon a old can of baked beans. William ate
the beans, and had to wait 4 excruciating days in hospital before the
obstruction to his colon could be cleared. The doctors removed a piece of
lead pipe 6 inches long, containing the scrawls of a man claiming to be
the boys' great great great grandfather. They took it home, left it in the
toy-cupboard, and went to school (Ed being 8, and Will being only 4 and a
half). |

2001 - The End of the
Decree |

|

The boys were now gargantuan in size, their lives
heading towards a downward spiral of employment and university. One day
however, the doorbell rang, and William went to answer. Alas! It was Steve
Guttenberg, Chevy Chase and Tom Sellek, all come to visit. They knew the
whereabouts of the rules, and had come to buy them. Queen Victoria's ban
on Cricball had ended, and they were looking to revive their lives after
the demise of their 80s acting abilities. After a quick squirmishThey gave
Edward and William all the cash that they had earned in the 80s, plus
enough booze to get them through the next week or so, and left the house
triumphantly, with a still soiled set of instructions and grins on their
faces. |
