Daisy
Jones' Locket

Davy
Jones had a deep-sea locker. But here in Fleetway
land, Daisy Jones had a locket. All she had to
do was to
rub it and - KAZAM! - a genie appeared to
carry out her
every whim. And not just the old "three wishes"
routine.
Genie would keep on granting wishes ad inifitum,
if so
requested...
Daisy was all heart, though, bless her. She tried
to use
her genie friend to right wrongs and foul up crooks,
criminals
and bullies. Notice the word "tried" there,
because there
was a twist in this Grenie's tail.
You see, the chap would
often take the words of Daisy's wishes a tad too literally:
like the time when she wished for a monster ice
cream,
but got an ice cream monster instead....
Daisy was on the right track, hoping to help folks.
But with all that magic power at her fingertips, surely
she
could have set her sights a little higher. Afte
all, turning
next door's dog into a stretchy sausage dog was
all well
and good, but what about solving world hunger,
or ridding
us of Third World debt. Now that would be magic
indeed...
"This'll
shine it up!"
Daisy unearthed her locket in the attic of her
house.
She wanted to play outside with her pals, but
instead she
was sent up to tidy the place by her grumpy father.
The locket
was found in her Grandad's old sea chest.
One quick rub
later and our Genie pops up. Daisy wishes for
her friends
to join her, and - next second - her pals appear.
Then, 'cos
she can't go outside, she asks the Genie for a little
sunshine. So he makes the roof disappear!
