During a torrential downpour Worzel leaves his post and heads for the cosy warmth of John and Sue’s Romany Caravan at Scatterbrook. Unfortunately John won’t let him in. even though Worzel promises to teach them Worzelese, the Scarecrow language, so instead Worzel shelters in the old barn where he keeps his heads. After a few minutes John and Sue join him and, as he has no furniture, promise him an old chair that Mrs. Braithwaite is throwing out. The next day the Village wakes up to a crime wave, Worzel has been up since cock’s crow stealing furniture and has set up home in one of the back fields.
