Art dialled the number again. He hung up and waited, his pizza-sticky finger just above the redial button.
‘Our next competition is sponsored by ‘Going Up’, the hot air balloon company. They need a name for their new balloon. Ring in when...’
Art hit the redial button. Beeps. The phone was answered immediately.
‘Hi. M’name’s Art.’ ‘Hullo Art. What is your answer?’ said a voice.
For a moment, Art went blank. He didn’t know the question. Behind, he could hear his radio talking to itself.
‘Could you turn off your radio please Art?’ requested Dr What.
‘Okay.’ Art leaned across, and paused. The radio was a few seconds behind. Art could hear his radio- self talking.
‘Okay,’ said his voice. Weird. As if there were two of him. He liked hearing himself, but. ... Click! The radio went dead.
‘Your suggestion for the hot air balloon’s name? ‘Dr What’s voice came from the phone. ‘Balloon ... Fly. Balloonfly,’ said Art quickly.
‘Thank you. Art. Give your number off- air to my producer.’ Art gave his details and hung up. Then he switched the radio back on. Dr What was still speaking as Art finished his pizza and drank his milk.
‘Congratulations to prize-winner Art. He’ll have to be up VERY early tomorrow. My producer will be calling him in a few minutes.’
‘Cherry picker!’ Art let out a yell. Unluckily, the prize had to be used next morning, at 4.30 a.m. It was a hot air balloon flight for three.
Excitement fizzed in Art’s tummy. But who would go with him?
Last school camp India had hated the flying fox. How would she feel about hot air ballooning? Even if it were a birthday present.
Art ‘owed’ Mars Bar. If he came, Mars Bar was sure to muck up the flight.
