Tales From The Treehouse

This set of stories is about two very likable rogues, their friends, enemies and adventures.

Let us introduce our two heroes. The smart one is Chip. As the slightly older of the two he’s the leader and brains of the operation. Most of the time. The other one is Dale. He isn’t a smart one at anytime. Together they end up in all sorts of trouble in their search for nuts, drink and females. Not necessarily in that order. Dale will often do stupid things just to see what happens, he then relies on his brother to get him out of trouble. Although he won’t admit it, Chip is very protective of Dale. Well, wouldn’t you if you found a poor, defenceless, dumb animal on your doorstep ??

Chip                      Dale

Then there’s little ‘N’. He often stays in the treehouse, guarding the nuts and drink, when Chip and Dale go out. He always has to stand between the two of them. He says it's to stop them hitting each other.

‘The Sapper’ is the main enemy of everyone in the treehouse. This yorkshire goit is very adept at disguising himself. He is always trying to get rid of Chip and Dale so that he can run the treehouse his way. Fortunately he isn’t that smart and inevitably ends up losing.

‘The Witches Coven’ are nominally the sworn enemies of Chip and Dale and the Risky Rangers. However since they both have a mutual enemy in ‘The Sapper’, they often end up helping each other out, even unwittingly. This coven consists of Gran, the leader of the coven. She sits at home spinning webs, eating Cheese Toasties and knitting socks. Why, nobody quite knows, the last person to ask is sitting on a lilly pad in the pond. Next is La Wietch, or Blondie as Chip and Dale call her. Easily recognisable as the only blonde witch with brown hair. She has a nasty temper, probably due to being colour blind, which sometimes gets the better of her so much that her spells often come out wrong. Secretly, she likes it in the treehouse with the Risky Rangers. The junior witch is Magrat, or as Dale calls her MadRat. No-one is sure if this is a speech impediment he has or another example of his stupidity. Finally there is Cunobelin, apprentice warlock to La Wietch. Only there to provide muscle and help her out when her spells go wrong. Often heard telling her to "Push the red one" and "Watch out for that green thing !"

Other character appear throughout the tales. These will be introduced as and when appropriate. For example the Fuzz Girls, the Prussians and other sundry nasties.

'Nuff said - over to the episodes...

1. How The Witch Was Won

A tale of daring do. Adventure, danger, romance, suspense and thrills in this, the true story of how the tree house came to be the centre of culture and wit that it has come to be. Ever wondered why the witches say or do some of the stupid things you've witnessed ? Ever wondered why the Sapper is always the target ? Well wonder no more. All is revealed, and more, in this the first Tale from the Tree House. Marvel at the traps laid for our two heroes in this the first real contest between the forces of good and the forces of the witches coven. Gasp in admiration, as the Tree House begins to take shape against all the odds. An epic story, combining the best elements of  such classics as 'Raiders of the Lost Nut', 'The Seagull Has Landed', 'Where Seagulls Dare', 'The Full Nutty', 'Four Cashews And A Hazelnut' and the oscar nominated 'The Witches of Nutwick'. If not a Tour de Force then at least a Tour de Kitchen.

2. A Chipmunk Carol

The Sapper is only interested in Mars bars and wealth. It's nearly Christmas and he's not got an ounce of Christmas spirit in him. So Chip and Dale decide to teach him the real meaning of Christmas. And so with the help(?) of the witches we give the Treehouse  Treatment to that Charles Dickens classic 'A Christmas Carol' otherwise known as ..... Scrooge.
