Eija’s short toothbrush

Eija grabs the glass and toothbrush, and offers Pilvi her choice of tap- or salt-water for gargling, after she brushes. When Pilvi delegates the choice to Eija, Eija decides on tap water, and runs to the house. She soon returns with a dish scrubbing brush with a hole in the handle. She jams the toothbrush into the handle of the brush, and applies toothpaste to the toothbrush. She then stands as far from Pilvi as she can, leans over (using Pilvi to keep herself balanced), and starts to brush Pilvi’s teeth. She manages to brush Pilvi’s teeth from a distance of 32 centimetres – 19 centimetres of which was the toothbrush itself – and comes fourth.
