comic bits

I was reading through people's earlier posts about favourite books and favourite bits of books.  One of my favourite scenes is in Cricket Term where Nicola goes AWOL on the roof, and Lower IVA pretend to go looking for her and run amok in the school grounds.  Miss Cromwell appears like an avenging angel...Lower IVA come running like filings to a magnet...there is terrible trouble and in the middle of it all, Nicola walks in, completely unaware of what is going on.  Deliciously funny.  Does anyone else have favourite comic moments?

My favourite bit in Cricket Term is the bit where Tim and Nicola are chatting and get serious giggles when Tim says, of her design for Ariel, or was it Caliban: "Me auntie wouldn't wear it" and they both get a vision of her doing so.... I, too, got serious giggles the first time I read it, and it still makes me smile.
