"Now dear, you MUST be home by midnight, because on the stroke of midnight, if you're not back home, I'll turn your snatch into a pumpkin. That's to stop you and the prince getting any funny ideas about the rest of the night! OK Cindy?" "Yes, fairy G, that'll be fine, I agree." But of course, what with the occasion and the merriment and the drink, she forgot all about it, and wasn't home at midnight. At 2 a.m. she was still out, and at 3, and finally she staggered in at 4:30 looking bleary-eyed but well pleased with herself. "Well, I warned you, you weren't back, so I turned your snatch into a pumpkin, as promised. Tough." "Yes fairy G, I was warned, I accept it." "Well I must say you don't seem all that bothered! Wasn't the prince at least a bit non-plussed?" "Oh no," said Cinders, "He went home soon after midnight. I spent the rest of the night with someone else. We had a lovely time!" "Hmmph. It's hard to believe, but I can see you've been enjoying yourself. Who was he anyway?"
