Suddenly a rather round, fat, purple body appeared. It was his cousin Ben. Now some people think that 'Big Ben' is the name of the clock. But we all know that 'Big Ben' is really Hairy Henry's cousin, the Clock Monster.

"Hello," said Ben. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm on holiday," said Hairy Henry.
"Hold on a minute," said Ben.

He banged the huge metal bells twelve times. The noise was horrible. Hairy Henry couldn't hear anything else.

"OK," said Big Ben. "Let's go and see London!"
