This is what I had in my pockets: A Swiss Army Knife with 13 attachments including a (…) a toothpick and tweezers. A piece of string. A piece of a wooden puzzle (…). 3 pellets of rat food for Toby, my rat. £1.47 (this was made up of a £1 coin, a 20p coin, two 10p coins, a 5p coin and a 2p coin) A red paperclip A key for the front door.

And when they tried to take it off me I screamed, so they let me keep it on. They asked me if I had any family. I said I did. They asked me who my family was. I said it was Father, but Mother was dead. And I said it was also Uncle Terry but he was in Sunderland and he was Father’s brother, and it was my grandparents, too, but three of them were dead and Grandma Burton was in a home (…). It was nice in the police cell. It was almost a perfect cube, 2 metres long by 2 metres wide by 2 metres high. (…) I wondered how I would escape if I was in a story. It would be difficult because the only things I had were my clothes (…). I decided that my best plan would be to wait for a really sunny day and then use my glasses to focus the sunlight on a piece of my clothing and start a fire. I would then make my escape when they saw the smoke and took me out of the cell.
