B,U,O

Big Ugly Ogre. Tip-toe through the woodland as onward quietly you go. Careful not to awaken the Ogre we all know. Well he has lived there for years a real Ogre in every way. Who reminds us of our fears if he sees us he will say with a Mighty Roar. "WHO DARES TO TREAD MY WOODLAND AND WAKE ME FROM MY BED. IF I CATCH YOU IN MY WOODLAND THEN SOON YOU COULD BE DEAD." So if it's through this woodland you dare to go and have lived, it's because you've met the Ogre and have taken his favourite gift. He is rather fond of truffles covered in green slime. Then he may grant you freedom through his woodland one more time. So tip-toe tippy-toe do not make a sound and the Ugly Big Ogre will stay sleeping underground. SHUSH!
