An Education - Down Under

Postby KP Presents » Mon Mar 20, 2017 3:41 am

“Hey – sleepy head, it’s time to wake up.”

I shook my head and looked over to see Cassie smiling at me.

“I was sleeping?”

“Oh yes – but we’re about ninety minute out now.”

Looking at my watch, I said “how long was I out for?”

“You fell asleep as soon as they served breakfast – so it’s about four in the afternoon where we are going. Mum said to wake you up so that we have time to get cleaned up.”

I nodded as I stood up and stretched, Mum smiling at me as I made my way to the toilet. We were nearly there – Australia… We’d left home at five o’clock in the morning – yesterday now – and taken off from Heathrow at nine in the morning to fly to Singapore. The flight was about thirteen hours, but with time zones and all that we’d landed at six in the morning in Singapore, then had a short break before we switched planes and took off again. So to me, it was after ten – and I needed my sleep.

After I had taken a moment, and splashed some water in my face, I got a bottle of water from the cabin area and went back to my seat. Mum was taking David to the toilet, as Dad gave June some fruit.

“Granny and Granddad will meet us at the airport,” Dad said as I sat down, “and we’ll eat when we get to their place.”

I nodded as I took a drink of water. I was actually still wearing what we left London in – a loose fitting tunic top over a pair of leggings, while Cassie had on a t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Our shoes and coats were in the overhead locker, waiting for us to put back on as soon as we landed.

“Ladies and Gentlemen,” a voice said over the speakers, “this is your captain speaking. We will be landing in an hour or so, and the cabin crew will be coming round soon for one last opportunity to purchase duty free goods…”

“Soon be time to land,” Mum said as she stood up, and took June’s hand. “Come on little one – your turn now.”




We’d been planning this trip for months – we’d never visited Granny and Grandpa Carter in their home, and with me starting at sixth form after the long holidays Dad said it was a case of now or never.

So here we were, as the stewardesses walked round and made sure everything was back in place, and I switched off my phone. The plane was starting to descend, as I fastened the seatbelt, and we heard June talking quietly to Mum…


Eventually, we felt the bump and then I was pushed back into my seat as the plane touched down, and very quickly was in a slow crawl as it moved along the runway.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Sydney Australia, where it is a cool 58 degrees. Please remain seated until the plane has come to a complete stop, and on behalf of Singapore Airlines, thank you for choosing to fly with us…”

“Stay in your seats once we come to a stop,” Dad leaned over and said, “I’ll get your bags from the locker, but we need to make sure the twins are ready before we get off.”

I looked at Cassie as we both nodded, and sat back as outside the window we approached the terminal building, the plane stopping as Dad stood up and got our shoulder bags from the overhead locker. Once he and Mum had David and June ready, we stood up and walked off the plane. I felt a bit stiff, but as we walked into the terminal building that soon wore off, Cassie and me holding our young brother and sister’s hands as we joined the queue at Passport Control.

Okay, I’ll be honest – I expected to see men wearing our funny hats and those khaki shirts at the passport area, but instead it was a woman like the one in London, who smiled as she looked at our passports, stamped them and then waved us through.

“Okay – we’re going to need this,” Dad said as we waited at the baggage claim, and he picked up the double stroller, Mum putting it up and sitting the twins in it as Cassie came over with a luggage trolley.

“Do you know what I’m looking forward to the most,” she said to me as we watched the rest of the luggage start to appear.

“No – what?”

“Fresh air.”

I had to nod in agreement on that, as Dad started to put our cases onto the trolley, and then looked at us.

“Right – ready to see a whole new country?”

“Have you ever been here Dad?”

“Nope,” he said as he started to push the trolley, “so this is as exciting for you as it is for me.” We looked at each other and nodded as we walked through the Customs area, and the large glass doors opened as we walked through.

“THERE THEY ARE!”

“Hello Mum,” Mum said as she walked over with the twins, and hugged the elderly couple standing outside. “We’re finally here?”

“And you look fantastic,” Granny Carter said as we walked over.

“George, June – you both look fantastic,” Dad said as he hugged them both.

“So do you – are you too old now to give your grandmother a hug, Jenny?”

“Of course I’m not,” I said as I hugged them both, and then they hugged Cassie.

“Right – let’s get these out to the car,” Granddad said, “and we’ll get you to our place. I think a lunch, and then a walk is the best thing you can all do this afternoon.”

“Sounds good,” Mum said as we made our way out of the terminal building, and to the car park.

Now, I’ve watched my fair share of bad Australian soaps in my time, but seriously – I was shocked at just how blue the sky was as we walked outside.

“I thought it would be warmer,” Cassie said.

“Winter here doofus,” I said as I nudged her in the ribs, and we walked to where a large SUV was parked. As Granddad and Dad loaded the cases into the back, I helped Mum to put the twins into the seats at the back, and then we all sat in as our grandparents sat at the front.

“And away we go,” Grandma said with a smile as we moved off.

“Jess and Patty send their regards,” Mum said as we left the airport.

“How are the renovations going?”

“Not too bad – they’re off to Orlando in a week’s time with the Riggs.”

Patty, aka The Human Tornado, and her friend Rachel had been the centre of a lot of media attention recently, when purely by accident (according to them anyway) they stumbled over where a kidnapping gang were holding Debbie Dee, the child star, hostage. They both got a medal, as did Charlie Williamson, but they also shared a very large reward.

“Well, I can understand them not wanting to come over here,” Granddad said, “they were in the news over here as well. Must be something in the water over there, that means you girls keep getting into trouble.”

“No comment,” I said with a laugh as we went along the road. “I just want to enjoy the holiday over here.”

Famous last words…

And so they're off to their Aussie adventure! I can't wait to see what they'll encounter. I do wonder, do the Carters live in the urban areas or the rural parts? I hope they are rural folk, since I really want the Craigs girls to see kangaroos, koalas, and see the Outback! And in a rural place, they can play their games with more freedom than with more people snooping around.

I wanted to ask. I do wonder what is the exact timeline. Since its winter, I would assume it's June, July and August there? Is that this year or last year? I assume this year (2017) since they knew of Patty. And what holidays were they talking about?

Or maybe the events of Teaching Debbie hasn't happened yet but the events of Starstruck did? I'm sure Starstruck happened early summer in England, but I'm not sure.

Thanks.

I do wonder if they would meet some friends there too? Perhaps Heidi going on a vacation? And how about Brian and Sarah? Brian Holderness-Carter, I remember, was an Australian.

I think that the story is set in summer 2016, after the events of Star Struck and Prom Night and before Teaching Debbie.If you remember in Teaching Debbie Patty alluded at her cousin's Aussie trip.
I'm curious to see in what kind of trouble they will end. A robbery? A kidnapping?

Hi Wrapster (& the rest of KP's fans)
Following consultation with the author, I removed the "Heidi and the Sweet Sixteen" thred in the light of what he had said.
That will give him the opportunity to post any re-working of it without the baggage.

“Are we there yet?”

It doesn’t seem that long ago when it was Cassie saying that, and me – but this was David speaking as we went along a very straight, very long road.

“We’re there now,” Grandma said as we turned up a dirt track, and I saw a large bungalow appearing at the end of the drive. And when I say large, I mean large – it seemed to go on forever, as Granddad pulled up outside a large veranda.

“Okay then – everybody out, and stretch your legs,” he said as he turned the car engine off, and I opened the door, feeling the cool air on my face as we stepped out. The land all round was fairly flat, with some hills rising in the distance, and as I looked round there were a number of similar houses in the distance.

“Nice,” Mum said as she held David, “I thought it would be hotter.”

“Well, it is winter here,” Grandma said with a smile as Cassie rolled her eyes. “Come on – let’s get the bags in, and then I’ll get supper sorted out.”

“Let me give you a hand with them,” Granddad said as he and Dad started to bring our cases in, while Jenny and I took June’s hands as we walked into the house. The door opened onto a large open area, with a few seats and a large rug on the wooden floor.

“Put the television on if you want,” Grandma called through from the kitchen, “I’m sure there will be something on.”

“Like what,” I said as I turned on the television, and then smiled as both David and June said “Mickey!”

“The Disney Channel, perhaps,” Grandma said as they sat on the couch. “Do you girls want to come and have a drink?”

“Sounds good to me,” Cassie said as we went into the kitchen – and then out into the back yard, where Grandma and Mum were sitting under a very familiar looking umbrella at the table.

“You have a swimming pool,” Cassie gasped as we looked at the yard.

“Oh yes – did we forget to tell you,” Grandma said with a smile as she poured some lemonade into two glasses, and looked at us.

“What’s wrong Grandma,” I said as she looked at us.

“Look at you – you’re turning into young women now.”

I looked at Cassie, in her t-shirt and jeans, and then at me – and she had a point. Without realising it, we had become young women – and Cassie was realising this as well.

“Tell me about it,” Mum said with a sigh as she sat down, “but I am so proud of them.”







“Hey there – how was the flight?”

“Long, boring,” I said as I looked at Colin on the laptop screen, “but we’re here now. How’s the weather in Holderness?”

“We’re having a heatwave,” he said with a smile, “but I guess you are as well?”

“Nope – it’s like a spring day here, but it’s the middle of their winter,” I said with a smile. “Are you seeing Bobby and the others today?”

“That’s the plan – once I’ve had my breakfast of course,” Colin said with a grin. “What about you?”

“I’m going to head to bed in a little while – the twins are being settled now by Cass. After that – I have absolutely no idea.”

“Well, I’ll talk to you later in the week – Dad’s calling me down,” he said as I heard the voice off camera. “Stay safe – love you.”

“Love you too,” I said as I ended the call, and then sat back, suddenly realising how tired I was.

“Call done?”

“Call done,” I said as I looked at Mum.

“Look – I know you’re not going to get much of a chance during this trip, but Cassie wondered if you wanted to be like her tonight – nothing major, but still…”

“Yeah – yeah I’d like that,” I said with a smile.

“Well, get changed, come and have a drink – and then we’ll get you ready.”

I nodded as I stood up, and changed from my clothes into a vest top and a pair of shorts, before I joined the rest of the family in the front room.

“I thought we’d take a trip to the beach tomorrow – let the youngsters run riot while you older girls get to relax,” Granddad said as I accepted a mug of cocoa. “Sound good?”

“Sounds good to me,” Cassie said, “how far away is it?”

“There’s a little beach a lot of the local families go to about thirty minutes away,” Grandma said, “you might see some of the other neighbours there as well.”

“Great,” I said as I yawned, and then took a drink. “I’m more tired than I thought.”

“Well, drink up,” Dad said, “and then into bed.”


A short while later, I was lying in my bed, watching as Mum wound the white tape round my ankles, and then around my legs above and below my knees. My wrists were already taped together in front of me, and a band of tape was around my arms and stomach as I lay there.

“All right then – Cassie is almost out anyway,” Mum said as she tore a long strip of tape from the roll, “so when you wake up in the morning, just wait and Dad or me will come and get you free.”

I nodded as she pressed the tape firmly over my lips, and then left the room, turning the light off as she went out… I wriggled round, as my eyes slowly closed…






“You’re finally awake?”

I opened my eyes to see Dad standing there, and mumbled “whttmst?”

“Nearly eleven – but don’t worry, Cassie is only just awake as well. So I’ll cut you free, you can shower and put on something suitable, and then we’ll head to the beach and eat there.”

I nodded as he cut the tape away – and a short while later, we were in Grandpa’s van as we drove along the road, and then into a small car park. Mum and Grandma unloaded a couple of bags as Dad helped Grandpa carry a small barbecue onto the golden sand, while I held the hands of the twins and Cassie brought along some blankets.

“Wow,” I said as I looked at the sea at the shore, “want to go and have a look?”

The twins nodded as we walked down – we were all barefoot, so they stood on the shore and giggled as the water washed over their toes.

“Hello there.”

The American accent took me by surprise, as David and June turned with me to see the young boy standing there.

“Bart?”

“Hello Jenny,” the toddler said, “are you on vacation as well?”

“I am,” I said with a smile, “so who else is here with you?”

“Sarah, Mummy and Daddy – want to see them?”

“Hello Bart,” June said as she held my hand, David kicking at the waves as they lapped at his feet.

“Hello June…”

“Bart, who are you… Jenny Craig? What brings you to this part of the world?”

I smiled as I looked at the tall Australian. “Hey Brian – my grandparents live nearby, and we’re here for a long holiday before my results come out. I guess you’re here on holiday as well?”

“Yeah – it was getting a little too warm in Maine for us, so I suggested a couple of weeks in my home town. So your family live nearby as well?”

“Yeah – Mum’s parents. They’re over there,” I said as I pointed to where Dad and Granddad where working on a barbecue.

“Okay then – we may pop over and say hi later, but for the moment, I’ll let you keep an eye on the youngsters.”

“On the…” I looked at June and David as the waves washed over their legs, making them laugh as I said “fair point – we’ll see you later.”



“Now this is what I call a holiday,” Cassie said as she lay back on the blanket, “hot dogs, hot sun, and not a care in the world.”

“I agree,” Mum said as she looked over from her chair, “I can see why you love it here Mum. It’s like a little piece of heaven.”

“Oh it can be fun at times – Christmas it gets incredibly hot,” Grandma said with a smile, “but that is what air conditioning is for.”

“I agree – trust me, if we were at home it would be going full blast.”

The American accent took us by surprise, as Mum sat up and removed her sunglasses.

“Sarah! Jenny said you were here – it’s good to see you again,” Mum said as she stood up and hugged the brunette, “how have you been?”

“Oh busy with this and that,” Sarah said with a smile. “Hi you two – Brian said he had seen you earlier Jenny.”

“Do you want to play in the sand,” David said to Bart and Sarah, the twins nodding as they went off with him and June.

“Hey Sarah,” Dad said as he looked over, “where’s Brian?”

“Collecting our things together. You must be Jennifer’s parents – I’m Sarah Holderness-Carter, they’re Bart and Sarah, and the tall hunk walking over with the bags is my husband Brian.”

“Holderness-Carter – do you know Lord and Lady Holderness,” Grandma said as she looked over.

“He’s my cousin,” Sarah said with a smile, “we got married at Holderness Manor. Brian, meet Jennifer’s parents.”

“Hey there – Brian Holderness-Carter. Good to meet you.”

“June – and that’s my husband George trying not to incinerate the food with David,” Grandma said. “You sound as if you are from around here?”

“I grew up nearby,” Brian said with a smile, “but I met Sarah in the US.”

“And you got married in England? How did that happen?”

“Long story – so you and the family are over for a few weeks Jennifer?”

“Yeah – you?”

“A few weeks away from the heat – in the slightly less heat,” Sarah said with a smile. “Listen – why don’t you and David join us for a meal one night? We know a great place that’s a short drive away.”

“Won’t you need to find babysitters,” Cassie said, and then as she looked at me she said “oh – let me guess. We look after Bart and Sarah?”

“Well, we can watch over David and June,” Grandma said, “if you want.”

“We’ll make it a date then,” Brian said. “Come on you two, we need to get home.”

“Bye Bye David,” Sarah said as she and Bart came over, the twins waving as they walked off with Brian and Sarah.

“We need to head off in a little while ourselves,” Grandma said, “I want to see if you three are up for a challenge tonight, if the boys don’t mind watching the twins.”

“What sort of challenge,” Cassie said as she looked over.

“You’ll see…”





“All right Grandma,” I said as I helped to clear the cupper dishes away, “what’s this challenge?”

“Well, I know you girls have been very good in terms of not playing your games,” Grandma said, “but… Well, your grandfather has also tied me up a few times now. I was wondering if the three of you were up for watching a film with me while we can’t comment.”

“Are you sure you want to do that Mum,” Mum asked, “and if so, remember just what these two can get up to.”

“Well, if you’re up for it,” Grandma said, “as tightly as you want.”

Cassie and I exchanged a look as Mum said “if that’s what you want – but we’ll need Dad and David to do it to us. You girls should go to the toilet and get changed – then your dad can show Granddad what to do.”

“Okay Mum,” Cassie said as we went off. “Grandma wants to go full job,” she said as we went to the room we were sharing.

“Not full full job,” I said as I looked at her, “but we can go as if it was Jay Edwards. No further – agreed.”

“Agreed,” Cassie said as we went to get washed.



“So, your grandmother wants to be like you two and your mother – what does that mean,” Granddad said as Cassie and I came in, wearing long sleeved tops and leggings.

“I’ll show you George – if I do things to Jenny, you do the same for Cassie, got it?”

“Okay,” he said as Dad handed me two sponge balls, and Granddad did the same to Cassie. We made two fists as Dad covered mine with tape, then handed it to Granddad before he pulled a pair of white socks up my arms. He then took the tape back and secured the topes to my arms, waiting until Cassie was the same as me.

“Right then,” he said as he handed Granddad a length of rope, and took one himself, “hands behind your backs girls – you know what to do?”

We both nodded as we crossed our wrists, and relaxed as we felt the rope pulling our wrists together. Granddad copied Dad as he wrapped the rope around and between our arms, and then round our waists to lock them against our backs.

“Okay – I see how they won’t move their wrists,” Granddad said, “what next?”

“Making sure they really cannot move their arms,” Dad said as he handed him a much longer length of rope, Cassie and I looking at each other as we felt our arms pulled into our sides. Dad wrapped it round above and below my chest, Granddad doing the same to Cassie as he said “are you sure they’re going to be comfortable with this?”

“Don’t worry Granddad,” Cassie said with a grin as he pulled the ropes tighter, “we can live with it.” I had to admit, it felt nice to me as well, as Dad tied my ropes off, and then used two smaller lengths to tighten the bands between my arms and my body.

“All right girls,” Dad said as he looked at us, “sit down on the long couch, and we’ll get those legs secured as well.” We both sat down, watching as he and Granddad tied our ankles together, and then our legs below the knees, taking the rope between our legs each time.

“Okay – I guess you two are staying there now,” Granddad said as he stood up.

“Don’t say that Dad – these two could still move around given half a chance.”

I laughed as Mum came in, wearing a pair of light blue pyjamas, followed by Grandma wearing a knee length white nightie and white leggings. She looked at us on the couch, and said “are you sure those ropes are not too tight?”

“No, they’re fine Gran,” I said, looking at Cassie and knowing just how much tighter they could have been. We watched then as Dad and Granddad handed them the sponges, and said “your turn now…”

We watched as both Mum and Grandma were bound as tightly as us, and they Mum sat next to me, and Grandma next to Cassie, as their legs were secured. “Well, I see why you might like this,” Grandma said as her legs were tied below her knees. “So how are we going to be kept quiet?”

“Like this,” Dad said as he and Granddad folded four clean handkerchiefs. “Well, to start with anyway. Open wide, all of you.”

“What are we watching anyywweegrnnnee,” I said as the cloth was pushed into my mouth, and then Dad used a knotted strip of an old tea towel as a cleave gag.

“Hmnntshrr,” was her reply as Granddad gagged her and then Mum, and Dad took care of Cassie, before the each took a roll of the white tape and started to wrap it tightly round our heads, covering our mouths as well as the cleave gag tied round our heads.

“Hmmfflssdfrnt,” Grandma said, the three of us nodding as Dad picked up the roll of silver duct tape, and we each had a band pressing down on the white band as well. Dad then folded four white scarves and tied them tightly over the tape, before Granddad folded four of Grandma’s scarves into triangles and tied them over our heads, the ends knotted under our chins.

“Now then,” he said with a smile as he turned on the television, and put a disc into the player, “I think you should all enjoy this.”

We looked at each other, before the titles rolled on the film – Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. It was certainly a different film, as we listened to the music, and then Mum and Grandma started to sing along.

“Whnurelunndlfsmknulnly,
Ucnlwesgdwntwn.

Smsthlp, ekn, dwntwn

“Jstlstntthmskfthtrffcnthcete

Mum looked at Grandma and then sang “Ucnfrgttlurtrbls, frgtllurcrss
Sgdwntwn!
Fnngswlbgrtwhnurdwntwn!
Nfnnrrplsfrshr, dwntwn, frrfngswtnngfru…”

The two of them looked at us, as Granddad put the subtitles on, and we both joined in.

“Dnthnngrndndlturprbllmsssrrndu

“Sgdwntwn

We looked at each other and then hummed along before we sang

We all cheered then, as I rested my head on Mum’s shoulder and we all watched the film, my eyes slowly closing…

Coincidentally they went to Australia and meet Brian and Sarah. And they reside nearby. Something tells me that in the babysitting night something will happen. Oh I forgot: Happy 5th An Education Anniversary Jenny and Cassie! You two have grown a lot in these 5 years among kidnappings, mortal dangers, The Pearl, Jay Edwards, american gang, new friends, births, weddings and christening. And, of course, tieup games. The thread of everything.
