Previous<\/a> – Book1 Page129 \u2013 Next<\/a><\/p>\n Chapter 17<\/strong> Benet is one of life\u2019s hidden treasures!<\/p>\n If he wasn\u2019t quite so unique you might call him a busker, or a street artiste, like the people who perform mime or juggling or other forms of entertainment. Benet\u2019s family took their inspiration from a long forgotten television show for young children, where the performer simply sits on a comfy chair and tells a story.<\/p>\n A fifteen minute story designed to entertain primary school pupils. In Benet\u2019s case, his almost true true stories keep people coming back for years and years. Teenagers and adults alike still find great joy indulging in this fond, childhood activity. If they have time to spare on a Friday afternoon when school ends, they\u2019ll make their way along to Jackanory Square at the same time as the younger kids.<\/p>\n People never know when Benet\u2019s coming to town. He circulates throughout Wolfland and beyond, but they\u2019ll know if he\u2019s doing a story this week, because he always arrives one day early, on a Thursday. The whole routine runs like clockwork.<\/p>\n When he visits Lancaster, the first thing he does is go to see Franklin and Faraday at The Lancastrian<\/em>. To buy some off cuts of paper. He has no money at that stage, but he always promises to pay in full once his show is over. And he does tend to pay, sometimes! When he\u2019s had a good day he pays all his dues in full.<\/p>\n No matter what, even when the takings are not so good, he always pays TomBaker. TomBaker runs the baker\u2019s shop next door to the Law Courts on Market Square.<\/p>\n Franklin and Faraday don\u2019t mind whether they\u2019re paid or not. The amount of paper involved is minimal and it would have gone into the composter anyway. They\u2019ve known Benet for years and they\u2019ll always accept a token payment in order to keep him happy.<\/p>\n Previous<\/a> – Book1 Page129 \u2013 Next<\/a><\/p>\n Previous – Book1 Page129 \u2013 Next Chapter 17 Hidden Treasure Benet is one of life\u2019s hidden treasures!
