SLEEPWALKER
===========

CRASH!! Eccentric Uncle Silas is out sleepwalking again. WALLOP!!

Around an old mansion hall littered with his treasured knick knacks CRUNCH!!

But you know what they say about waking sleepwalkers suddenly? BANG!!

So who can protect the frail old man from certain injury? RRIIPPP!!

Luckily nephew Rory is on hand to save his Uncle. SMASH!!

If only he can reach the skateboard before Sila.. YEOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!



Uncle Silas has had a rather worrying problem over recent years - Sleepwalking. 
Until recently nighttime occurrences had been rare, but suddenly Uncle Silas 
had been found wondering fast asleep by friendly Neighbourhood Watch people 
almost every night.

The costs of running a big old house are very high, and to be perfectly frank, 
Uncle Silas was broke. His house is slowly falling to pieces, and this, 
combined with Silas's forgetfulness, meant that the family home was like a 
disaster just waiting to happen!!

Now, Uncle Silas is a very stubborn bloke. When his relatives suggested that he 
may like to move to a house more suited to his condition, he flatly refused to 
budge. So Rory, Uncle Silas's young nephew, was brought in to try and make sure 
that the old man did not meet a premature end.

So, if Uncle Silas decides to go on a bit of a wander after 12 midnight, it is 
up to young Rory to see that he gets back to bed without breaking his deep 
sleep.

Whilst Uncle Silas is Sleepwalking, he will move randomly about the house in 
deep sleep. Sometimes he may make his way back to his bed of his own accord, 
but mainly Rory has to gently manoeuvre him back to his bedroom.

Deep sleep is an interesting phenomena. The person can be stirred quite 
violently, and yet quickly recover to go back to sleep. The number of times 
Uncle Silas can be shocked and return to sleep are shown on the nightcap icon 
on the Grandfather Clock. If Uncle Silas wakes fully whilst Sleepwalking, he 
will suffer untold mental trauma and possibly never recover.

To prevent this from happening, Rory guides Uncle Silas by standing stationary 
in his path. This gentle guiding action prevents his Uncle from waking up.

The house is littered with the following hazards, all of which will wake up 
Uncle Silas. Rory may have to set off the hazard himself, to protect his 
favourite Uncle.

CHANDELIERS - The house dates from the early Neo-Georgian period complete with 
ornate chandeliers. It is a shame that the bolts holding up these heavy articles 
date from Tudor times!!

SECRET DOORS - Uncle Silas was going to shut these after his visit downstairs, 
but somehow got distracted. 

RADIO CASSETTE - "Modern fangled howling machines" as Uncle Silas would say. 

HAT STANDS - Uncle Silas can trip over these or catch his head. 

ALARM CLOCK - Designed to wake people up. Just what a Sleepwalker does not need. 

GRAMOPHONE - An old 78 rpm record jarred into action will soon wake Rory's old 
Uncle.

RORY'S PET CAT - Uncle Silas is not the only one to be forgetful ... who forgot 
to put the cat out?

ANTIQUE VASES - Not only are they expensive, they also make a lot of noise if 
they get smashed into a million pieces.

The old Grandfather clock chimes the hours as Rory toils away during the night, 
ticking away until dawn approaches.
