Running Out 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. #

Six 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 Dean and we've got Scott.

Don't just sit there, pumpkin pies. Come on, let's get busy.

What's on a shelf?

Take that out, darling.

Poor Louie's got the cold.

I thought it would be nice to make her a get-well card.

Clever boys.

We're busy today, aren't we?

Now, we've got Scott and we've got Dean,

but someone's missing from home today.

Och, not any more. Who's coming home to Granny Murray?

It's Rudi. Yes, with Jack.

Hello, there!

-Rudi! Hello!

-Hi, Granny Murray.

-And Jack! A big squeeze and cuddle! Come on, my darling.

-Come on.

That's the way.

-How's poor Louie?

-She's on the mend now.

I've been running up and down stairs

-with hot water bottles and drinks. Haven't I?

-Yeah!

-I've got a present for you.

-Ooh!

-Thank you for the soup you made for Louie.

-Thank you! They're beautiful!

Now Jack's here, why don't we dress Claude up as a flower girl?

You take those over, my treasure.

Over you go, boys. That's the way.

Why don't we have a wee seat? I've got something to show you.

Come on.

Ohh...

It's good to sit down for a minute.

I hope you're looking after yourself.

Yes. It's been hard looking after Louie, taking care of Jack,

and running the stall.

I bet it has.

Oh, here - this is a get-well card the children made for Louie.

Wow - fantastic! It's in the shape of a ferryboat!

-Will you take it home and give it to her?

-My pleasure.

Whoops! Maybe not!

-What's in there?

-Dirty washing! The washing machine broke.

I've got to drop this off at the laundrette.

Don't be daft. I'll do it for you.

Thanks very much, Granny Murray. I'll owe you one!

-Just you remember to look after yourself.

-Of course!

You should see Claude! He looks gorgeous!

-You should see the hat he's wearing!

-Ooh la la!

We can't have a flower girl without flowers.

That's better.

-Dad!

-Is that for me? What is it?

It's a wee nurse.

To remind me I've been playing nurse all week!

I'll pop that in my pocket. Give us a cuddle.

See you later, champ.

-See you later, guys.

-Come on.

Now remember - don't forget to look after yourself.

Bye-bye. See you later.

-Bye-bye, my darling. We'll be thinking of you.

-Me too.

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

# I'm on my way To work today

# Walking my shoes through the city views

# Stepping along and swinging my arms

# Singing my way through the city's charms

# Getting there is just so fine

# I so enjoy my walking time

# I always go the way I know

-# Can you tell me the way I go?

-Hey!

-#

OK - which way?

# Do I go left now? Do I go right?

# Which way is wrong now? Which way is right? #

-Right!

-OK - that way! To the market!

# I'm on my way To work today

# I'm going this way and that-a-way... #

Hello, cobbles!

Hello, train!

Hello, roadworks!

Hello, tram!

Hello, sweeper!

Hello, van!

# He's on his way to work today

# Looking this way and that-a-way Hey!

# Do I go up now? Or do I go down?

# Which way's a smile now and which way's a frown? #

-Up!

-What - this way?

# You told me the way to go

# Thank you - you showed me the way I know. #

Now what? Oh - that's right! I need to get changed for work.

All dressed and ready to go.

Right. What we got here?

No, no, no! I can't believe how low I've let my stock get!

-Morning, Rudi!

-Hey, Chuck. How are you doing?

I'm missing Louie. How is she?

Much better. Dr Juno says she's well enough for visitors.

OK, I'll take her some grapes.

Grapes. There we go.

You should take her some pears. She loves ripe pears.

And oranges - there you go.

Rudi, you hardly have any left.

Oranges are full of vitamin C.

Stops you getting a nasty cold. Can't have you ill too.

-# Have a banana! #

-Rudi!

-I know they're your favourites.

You won't make money if you give your fruit away.

Who needs money when you've got friends?

-Thanks, Rudi. Bye!

-See you later.

Give Louie a kiss from me!

Oh, I wonder how my little boy's doing?

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal by the sea

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me. #

Here we are.

-Oh, Jack - are you doing the washing as well?

-Yes.

-Good boy.

There's Dad's washing, drying nicely on the line.

-OK, this washing's...

-Good boy. Very busy.

I need to put that powder in.

'Are you having fun, Daddy?'

-BICYCLE BELL RINGS Doctor J!

-Hi, Rudi!

I hope you haven't caught Louie's cough and cold.

No, I've been looking after myself. Thank you for all your advice.

I only told her to keep warm, drink lots and stay in bed.

She listens to you. You're the doctor. You know what's best for her.

-Here, have a bag of kiwi fruit.

-I can't take your fruit!

Sure you can!

You doctors - always rushing about. I bet you haven't stopped to eat today.

I had a slice of toast this morning.

A slice of toast? It's a wonder you can cycle to the hospital!

-Here...have a cauliflower.

-Hang on, Rudi.

I may be the doctor but you were the nurse. So was little Jack.

-I hope you two were eating properly.

-Yes, strawberry ice cream on toast!

Yuk! I'll pop in and see Louie later on.

Brilliant! Give her a hug from me.

Thank you. I will.

-See you later!

-Bye-bye, Doc.

Right, I'd better stop my chatting.

Get on with some serious work.

-Hi, Rudi!

-Hey! Hello, Tina.

Granny Murray has sent me on a special errand.

Oh, my laundry! Thanks for bringing it round, Tina.

-Let me give you some new potatoes in exchange for my laundry.

-No, it's OK.

-I was passing anyway.

-No, no, they're just...

Oops! I appear to have run out of potatoes.

I know, Tina, why don't you take some tomato...?

I just appear to have one of them. But you can have it.

Oh, Rudi, you can't afford to go giving stuff away.

I've never seen your stall so low.

I've been so busy looking after Louie all week, I forgot to order.

Look, if ever you need a hand, call me and I'll whizz over.

-Oh, thanks, Tina.

-Bye, Rudi.

-Bye-bye!

Oh, I hope Jack's looking after himself today!

Who's under here? Boo!

I'm going to tickle you! I'm going to tickle you!

Where's those wee knees? What's happened?

Aargh! Come back to me! I'm a big monster!

I'm going to eat you for my tea!

I don't want...!

-Oh! Hi, Rudi.

-Hello, Bobby. You been out for a jog?

Yeah, just warming down. Got to keep fit!

Right, can I have... one cabbage, please?

I'll make a big pan of cabbage. I could take some round to Louie.

That's really kind but I think she's over the worst now.

Oh. I don't seem to have any cabbages left, I'm afraid.

-Oh, well, never mind. Have you got a big bunch of bananas?

-Righty-oh.

Oh. I don't seem to have any bananas left either.

In fact, I haven't got much of anything left.

-OK, I'll pop back later when you've had a chance to stock up.

-OK.

-Bye.

See you later, Bobs. ..I've got nothing left to sell!

How could I let my customers down like this?

What have I been doing all day? Where did the time go?

At six o'clock, I dropped off Jack at Granny Murray's.

The children had made Louie a get-well ferry-boat card.

Granny Murray said she would do my washing for me.

Jack gave me a plastic nurse to remind me

how much I'd been playing nurse all week.

At seven o'clock I opened my stall. My first customer was Chuck.

She said she'd call in on Louie. I gave her some grapes and pears.

At nine o'clock Dr Juno dropped by to see how Louie was.

I gave her a cauliflower and kiwi fruit to thank her for her advice.

At 12 Tina arrived in her taxi.

She brought the washing that Granny Murray had done.

I wanted to give Tina a thank-you present

but there wasn't much to give her.

At one o'clock when Bobby came, there was hardly anything left on my stall,

not even a banana.

Now, remember, don't forget to look after yourself.

Don't forget to look after yourself! Of course!

I've been too busy looking after Louie,

I forgot to look after myself and restock the stall. I need help.

I'd best give Tina a call. But 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'm going to beat that bong

# I'm going to finish this job before I finish this song

# Do we think he's 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?

# As sure as we are friends He'll get there in the end

# He knows what to do He will work it through

-# I'm going to do it

-He's going to do it

My goodness, Rudi! You've certainly stocked up!

I know. I've got loads to sell now!

There's somebody ahead of me in the queue,

-somebody who's looking a lot better.

-Hi, Rudi!

Louie, what are you doing out of bed?

Don't worry, Dr Juno advised me to get a breath of fresh air.

-She said it would do me good after I was stuck indoors.

-Great to see you!

I've got my appetite back. I thought I'd make cheesy potatoes for tea.

-You looked after me, Rudi, now I'm going to look after you.

-Ooh!

And we both know who's looking after Jack, don't we?

Could I have a...cauliflower, please?

Cauliflower. Right...

Well, it's a cabbage.

A cabbage. That's the one I want. I'll take that. Thank you.

-Could I have three apples, please?

-OK, I've got three apples.

Thank you very much. How much?

-That's £3, please.

-£3. There we are, my darling.

-Have you had a busy day on your stall?

-Oh, yes, a busy day.

I wonder if your dad's had as busy a day as you.

-I think so.

-D'you think so?

Rudi! Come away in.

-Somone to see you, Jack!

-Hello, mate, give us a cuddle!

Sounds like you had a great time with Granny Murray.

-We certainly did.

-Say thank you to Granny Murray.

-Thank you, Granny Murray.

-Oh, a pleasure, my darling boy!

Thanks from me too. I remembered what you said -

-don't forget to look after yourself! And it saved the day.

-Thanks, Rudi.

-Well, we'd better get you two home.

-Come on, mate.

-Looking forward to next time.

-Me too.

-Bye.

Come on, Jack, 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...

# Waving, greeting, Bye-bye, closing, waking, dozing

# Fetching, sketching Gluing, chewing

# Sticking up and wiping round

# Dressing up and sitting down! #

But what was really special about today?

Well, Claude was dressed as a flower girl

because Rudi arrived with some flowers for me.

Rudi's been looking after Louie who's had a bad cold.

The children made her a gorgeous get-well card.

While I hung Rudi's clean washing on the line to dry,

Jack played with the laundry set.

Then we played a tickle game.

Oh, we laughed ourselves silly!

Tina took Rudi's washing to the market in her taxi.

Jack and I stocked up our toy market stall with fruit and vegetables.

While we were doing that,

Rudi was doing the same and stocking up his market stall, too.

I hope you enjoyed yourself. ..Me too! Bye-bye, honey pie!
