Hat Parade Me Too!

# Come on and get on down to the city

# Where the trains all clatter through

# Hey! Look at that driver driving

-# I want to ride that train of blue

-Me too

# I'm looking way up high to the windows

# Take a peek for an inside view

# All these people busy working

# I want to see what they all do

# Come on, let's weave around the market

# Do you hear the hullabaloo?

# Everybody's busy selling

-# I wanna buy me something new

-Me too

# Look through the arches under the station

# Down where the pigeons perch and coo

# Take a taxi ride to the river

# I wanna drive down the avenue

# Hey, look at those buses gleaming

# They look so clean and spanking new

# All lined up to drive around the city

-# Let me ting that bell

-Ding, ding!

# Going to ride on round to the school stop

# Where the children hurry through

# Sit down, the teacher's teaching

-# I'd love to learn a thing or two

-Me too

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, by the sea. #

Seven o'clock.

# Come on and get on down to the city

-# Where the ferryboat sails are blue

-Sails are blue

# Time to call on Granny Murray

# She'd love to say hello to you... #

Hello, honey pie!

Come away in and see who's at home today.

# Granny Murray's house has two at home to play

# Granny Murray's house is home to... #

Who's here today?

Well,

we've got Gary and we've got Molly.

Don't just sit there, poppets, let's get busy.

You get me some of those hats.

Right, Molly, lead the parade.

Oh, we look fabulous, don't we?

Oh, that's brilliant! That's the way.

Who's coming home to Granny Murray? Who is that?

Ah, it's Jack with Rudi.

Hello, there.

-Rudi, hello.

-Hi, Granny Murray.

And Jack, oh! A big squeezy cuddle. Come on, my darling.

Oh-ho!

-Sounds like the Mad Hatter's tea party in here.

-You're not far wrong.

We're practising for the hat parade at the People's Palace. I know!

Why don't we pile as many hats as we can on top of Claude's head?

-Let's have a cup of tea.

-Great idea.

-Oh, I've brought round some apples for your lot.

-Oh, you're an angel.

-POSH ACCENT

-Cup of tea, Vicar?

I don't mind if I do.

-No sugar for me. I've given it up.

-Oh, good for you, darlin'.

I can't stand tea without sugar - far too bitter.

Oh, ho-ho, you should see Claude!

He looks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Hang on to your hats, Claude!

-Oh, no!

-What's wrong?

-Now I have made a mistake.

-I can't remember which has sugar. I think this is yours.

-Thanks.

Yeugh!

Sorry, wrong way round. I'll pour you a fresh one.

-Thanks, but I am going to have to make a move.

-You know,

this tea tastes quite nice without sugar.

Funny how good things can sometimes come from our mistakes.

-How's Claude doing?

-Let's take a look.

Wow!

Looks like he should be leading the hat parade.

-Sounds very flash, Claude.

-It is.

-Is that for me?

-Yeah.

-Wow!

Go on, give us a cuddle.

That was a squeezy one!

-Come on, I'll see you out.

-See you later.

And remember - good things can sometimes come from our mistakes.

-Thanks. See you later.

-We'll be thinking of you.

-Me too.

You keep a wee eye on Rudi and make sure he goes the right way to work.

Oh, I've no time to walk today. Can you tell me a quicker way?

TOOT! Thanks.

# I am in, am in a hurry

# I need, need, need to speed to work

# I'll take a trip in a taxi

# I'll be, be, be there quite quick

# Hurry, hurry through the streets

# Rolling down the road

# Winding, winding, winding Drives the speed up

# Squeaking, squeaking, squeaking Slows us down

# Rolling through the street Squeaking to a stop!

# I am in, in, in a hurry

# I need, need, need to speed to work. #

Whew! Thanks for that. Now what?

Ah, I've got to put on me work clothes.

All dressed and ready to go.

Morning. Looks like you've half the orchard

-on your stall this morning. Busy day?

-I hope so.

-What can I get for you?

-Nothing. I want a favour.

I made this hat for Tina for the parade.

-Can I leave it here for her?

-Oh, yeah, of course.

Careful, it's delicate. It's the bridge over the River Fingal.

-What do you make of this?

-Wow, a fez!

-Yeah.

Jack gave it to me. It's magic. Watch.

Abracadabra!

Ta-da! When's an apple not an apple?

-I don't know.

-When it's a pineapple.

Very good.

I'll just put this behind the stall.

-Thanks for looking after Tina's hat. Bye for now.

-No worries.

I wonder how Jack's getting on.

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal Riverseafingal by the sea

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal Riverseafingal that's for me. #

Oh, there we are, darling'.

-Bye-bye.

-Bye.

And Jimmy loves you, Daddy.

-Daydreaming isn't going to empty your stall, Rudi.

-Louie!

I didn't hear you there!

I was just thinking of our Jack. Look what he gave me.

Oh, he's such a sweet boy!

I still need to make a hat myself.

Take a look at the one Mickey John made for Tina. It's down there.

Careful - it's delicate.

Wow! It looks great!

I'm going to move this pumpkin down the front of the stall for display.

Hold on a second, Rudi.

-What?

-You almost squashed Tina's hat.

-Oh!

Hat wouldn't have been very good.

I better get going before I cause more mischief. Bye, honey.

Bye!

Right, time to get down to some serious business, aw...

# Doobie-doobie doo...

# I make it look easy what I doobie-doobie do

# And what I do is sell to you and you and you

# All the veggies for a stew

# But it's more than meets the eye

# What I do for you As I buy and buy

# While you still sleep Those fruit and veg to eat

# And the flowers in the early hours

# So when wake-up comes

# It's there for you

# The market stalls are there to view

# Oh, the market, the market!

# What a wonderful place

# The hubbub of people The smiles on each face

# Oh, the market, the market

# Come look around

# The hustle, the bustle The bubbles of sound

# The colours all chaotic And spilling about

# The smells all exotic Yeah, the market cries out

# Objects to excite you And draw you near

# The buying and the selling Cheap or dear

# The market, the market

# I just love to be there

# The market is a wonderful place Doodie-doobie doo

# Doobie-doobie doo. #

-Thanks, Rudi.

-Have a good day.

Busy today, Rudi?

Not bad, Bobby. It's picking up. How about you?

I finished work and now I am making a hat for the parade.

Could I take a peek at the hat Mickey John made for Tina?

Yeah, sure, it's just down there.

Right.

Oh...wow!

This is dead clever!

But it wouldn't last ten minutes with me. I'd break it.

I am going for something more sturdy.

A pumpkin hat! So, can I buy a pumpkin, please?

Coming up. But they are very heavy. Wouldn't want to carry it on my head.

Neither would I.

I'll make the hat out of papier mache.

There - one pumpkin.

Hang on!

I am so sorry, Rudi!

I left Tina's hat on the counter.

It could have been squashed and it would have been my fault.

No harm done.

This will cheer you up.

-Why did the orange stop rolling?

-I don't know. Why did it stop?

It ran out of juice.

Oh, that reminds me. I promised Kai I'd make a nice smoothie for him.

Could I have one pear, one orange and some bananas?

That will be a special-offer price of £2.50, please.

-There you go.

-Thank you very much.

-Thanks. Bye.

-Bye.

Jack should be back at Granny Murray's now.

I wonder if he managed to get a new hat.

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal Riverseafingal that's for me. #

That's the way - get some glue on and stick that on your hat.

A big dollop!

That's fantastic!

You're doing really well, Jack.

We're going to look so glittery and glamorous at the hat parade today.

Your dad will be so proud of you.

What's it like in the market, Daddy?

-Penny for your thoughts, Rudi.

-Hey, Dr J.

I hear you have Tina's hat. I'm itching for a look. Mind?

Not at all. It's just down there.

Wow!

Riverseafingal Bridge - very inventive.

I am going to model my hat on part of the city as well. The hospital!

It'll make a nice strong shape.

I need to get straight to work to get it ready in time for the parade.

-Thanks, Rudi. See ya.

-See ya.

Better just top up the old apple barrel.

-Hello, Rudi.

-Oh, Tina, at last.

Thank you for keeping my hat safe.

-No worries.

-I am so excited. I can't wait to try it on!

-Where is it?

-Just down there behind the stall.

Where about?

-Down there, unless Dr Juno moved it.

-There's nothing here.

-Just this empty apple barrel.

-Empty?!

Impossible! I've just filled it...

Uh-oh!

Oh, Rudi!

-I can't go to the hat parade in that!

-Oh, how did this happen?

I've managed to squash Tina's hat.

How could I have done such a thing? Where did the time go?

DONG! At seven I went to drop off Jack.

The children were having fun practising for the parade.

DONG! At eight, Mickey John arrived.

DONG! At nine, Louie looked at Tina's hat.

And I nearly squashed it but she stopped me in time.

DONG! By two, I had done some work.

Bobby was next to try on the hat and I nearly squashed it again.

She put it safely away behind the stall.

DONG! At three, Dr Juno looked at the hat.

She left in a hurry and forgot to put it back.

It was then I filled up my apple barrel,

but it was Tina's hat box.

That's what went wrong!

Remember, good things can sometimes come from our mistakes.

Of course - good things can sometimes come from our mistakes.

Thank goodness I ordered too much fruit.

Tina, it's a race against time.

# I've got to do it I've got to do it

# I've got to beat the clock Before the chime

# I've got to sort it I've got to sort it

# I've got to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee I am going to beat that bong

# I am going to finish that job Before I've finished this song

# Do we think he is going to do it? Do the job that needs to be done?

# Will he know how to fix it?

# Will he finish what he has begun?

# Just as sure as we are friends He will get there in the end

# Because he knows what he should do And work it through

-# I am going to do it

-He is going to do it

# I am going to beat the clock Before the chime

-# I am going to sort it

-He's gong to sort it

# I am going to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee I am going to beat that bong

-# I am going to finish this job Before I finish this song.

-Tick! #

Oh, my! This is gorgeous! Oh, it looks good enough to eat.

I shall be the talk of the hat parade.

Oh, thank you, Rudi.

-Hope Mickey John won't be too disappointed.

-Eh?

He'll be fine. Don't worry. He'll have fun repairing the bridge.

-Bye!

-See you later.

Oh, what a relief!

Tina's happy and I've used up all my fruit.

I am sure Jack won't mind me using the fez to save the day.

You've made a fabulous job of these hats, Jack. They look brilliant.

Your dad would be so proud of you.

Come on, let's dance.

JOLLY MUSIC

Jack, look at Tina's hat.

-Do you think she got her fruit at your dad's stall?

-Yeah.

-I think so.

-Rudi, come away in!

-Hi, Granny Murray.

-Look who's here!

-Hey!

-Dad!

Hello, Jack. Come here. It sounds like someone's had a great time.

We certainly have, haven't we?

-You say thank you to Granny Murray.

-Great boy!

Oh, and thanks from me too. I remembered what you said.

Good things sometimes come from mistakes. It saved the day!

-Come on, you two - off home.

-Come on, mate.

There you go.

-I am looking forward to next time.

-Me too.

-Bye-bye.

Come on. Let's talk about our time away.

And I suppose you'll want me to tell you all about my time too.

# Well, there was playing, creeping jumping, chasing, painting

# Laughing, digging, bathing Dressing, singing, swinging

# Rocking, sliding, hunting, hiding Jumping up and turning round

# Dressing up and sitting down! #

But what was really special about today?

Well, Claude was dressed in a pile of hats.

I was taking everyone to the hat parade.

First we dropped Jack off at nursery.

While he was there, he made hats with his friends.

After nursery, Jack decorated hats, making them

all bright and sparkly.

Then we went to the hat parade.

It was amazing!

Bobby's looked like a pumpkin.

Dr Juno's was shaped like the hospital. Louie had music on hers.

The finest hat was the one Rudi made for Tina.

It was fabulous and fruity!

Did you enjoy yourself? Me too.

Bye-bye, honey pie.
