Leaky Bus 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 Taharia and Lucy.

Don't just sit there, poppets, let's have some fun!

Oh, wow! There's my wee lady all ready to be glued.

Let's get these skaters skating!

Clever girl!

OK, put your magnet underneath. Wow!

Is that not so exciting?!

We've got Taharia and Lucy, but someone is missing from home today.

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

Oh, it's Kai with Bobby.

Oh, hello.

And hi, my pickle. Come away in.

Oh, you've missed the ice-skating, sausage.

Never mind, you can have a wee shot later.

Kai wants to watch the ice-skating on telly later. ..Don't you, Kai?

-Do you like ice-skating?

-Yes.

-Wow!

Darlings, why don't you dress Claude up as an ice skater?

-And maybe we could skate off over there.

Woo-ooo!

Shoo-ooo!

-So, what time does the ice-skating start?

-Eight o'clock.

-Right.

-I must remember - eight o'clock.

-No need to remember.

-Here.

-An alarm clock! Clever girl.

-It'll go off when the ice-skating starts.

-Great.

ALARM RINGS

MUFFLED RINGS No, it's still ringing.

This is impossible.

Don't worry. Nothing is impossible when you know how.

There!

-Brilliant.

-Now, when does the ice-skating start?

-Eight.

Eight o'clock.

There we are - all sorted.

Now Kai won't miss the ice-skating, nor will Claude.

Oh, wow! It looks like you're all ready to slide off across the ice.

-Give Mum a kiss goodbye.

-What's this?

Oh, Kai's favourite toy car, but it doesn't work any more, does it?

-What a shame!

-I'll take this to work, see if I can fix it for you.

Give us a kiss. ..Bye-bye. See you in the morning.

Bye.

-Bye.

-Nothing is impossible when you know how.

-Thanks, Granny Murray. See you later.

-Be thinking of you.

-Me too.

Now, you keep an eye on Bobby and make sure she goes the right way.

# I'm on my way To work today

# Walking my shoes through the city views

# Stepping along I'm 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 know the way I go

-# Can you show 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 bus depot!

# I'm on my way To work today

# Looking this way and that-a-way... #

Hello, digger!

Hello, drain!

Hello, lamppost!

Hello, train!

Hello, post-box! Oh, hello, plane!

# She's on her way To work today

# Looking this way and that-a-way...

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

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

-Up!

-OK, that way - up the steps.

# You told me the way I go

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

Thanks for that. Right, what's first?

That's right. I need to put on me work clothes.

All dressed and ready to go!

Yeugh! Look at that big patch of oil.

-I better get that cleaned up before I start to clean me buses.

-Hi, Bobby!

-Mickey J!

-Just thought I'd slip round.

What's up?

I was nearly up in the air with that patch of oil!

I came to ask you if you wanted to buy a spanner-man key ring.

Wow! They look great. Why are you selling them?

-Get money for the school photography club's trip abroad.

-They're cool!

-Kai would love one. How much?

-£1.

Bargain! Come with me and I'll get you some money.

There you go.

Thanks, Bobby.

Mickey J, I've heard you're really good at mending things.

Not bad.

Would you fix Kai's toy car for me while I clean up that patch of oil?

Sure. I'll give it a go, anyway.

Thank you. You're my hero.

# Sprinkle, sprinkle, little star. #

That should soak up the oil. I'll sweep it up later.

-Have you fixed the car?

-Well, not quite.

Sorry, I have to get home. I have to get the lessons ready for tomorrow.

-But good luck with the car. Bye.

-Bye. Oh, look!

Kai's car is in pieces!

Mind you, it's eight o'clock so I guess you are watching ice-skating.

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, by the sea. #

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me. #

ALARM RINGS

Wow! Those skaters are fantastic, aren't they?

Would you like a wee shot of skating up and down Granny Murray's floor?

Give us a twirl!

Wee-eee-eee!

Oh, 10! Top score! well done, my angel.

You'll have to show Mum some of those moves.

I'm thinking of you, Mummy.

I will fix your car, Kai, if it is the last thing I do.

But there are buses to clean first.

-Oh!

-May I have the next dance?

Hello, Raymondo, what are you up to?

-Raising money for Mickey J's school. Like to buy a spanner man?

-No!

-I bought one off him.

-They're all different.

-Each one is unique.

-OK, I will buy one off you.

Soon as I've cleaned up the patch of oil.

-Don't know where it's coming from.

-OIL be glad to wait.

-There.

-Come on.

-# Da-da da da da Da-da da da da. #

There you go.

-Thank you, Raymond.

-My pleasure. See ya.

-See ya.

Right, time to get on with some work.

# Bobby boogie-woogies as she cleans amongst the buses

# Sponging with her squeegee Sweeping with her brushes

# Shining up the headlamps

# For their night time shine

# Bright and beaming buses Bye-bye soon

# Cleaning while you're dreaming

# Making ready While you're in bed

# Gleaming while you're sleeping

# Dawn by dawn

# Lining up, all shining

# They'll be leaving for the day ahead

# Ready to dazzle The day away

# Swinging to the seat And looking pretty and radiant

# The hubcaps gleam The paintwork shines

# I've never seen a double-decker look so fine

# The driver she drives Collecting the fares

# Leaving and arriving She will get you there

# This bus is stopping, dropping picking up and putting down

# This bus is shining It's the talk of the town

# Then Bobby boogie-woogies flipping over, flipping under

# Rolling round, scrubbing up She really is a wonder

# Sticking up the posters As she wobbles on her toes

# Bobby walks a moon-walk As she rubs and wipes the windows

# Dusting through the starlight With as sparkle as she goes

# Polishing the buses So they'll all be gleaming

# For the day ahead. #

This oil is a right nuisance.

There.

Now I can get back to cleaning me buses.

Hello, Bobby, I think I slipped in some oil.

I'm sorry. I keep cleaning it up and it keeps coming back.

Not to worry.

-I am helping to raise money for the school fund.

-Not you too!

-Me too.

-I've already bought two spanner men.

I am not selling them. I just want to put up this poster on the bus.

Well, that will be fine. While you do that, I'll clean up this oil.

Again!

Oh, that's the perfect spot!

Everyone will see it and hopefully we will sell out of spanner men.

-Thanks, Bobby.

-Bye, Tina.

I think Kai's going to love those spanner men.

Thanks, me darling.

Look, they pull together by magnets.

Now, it's like magic. You hold this skater and I'll hold the board.

Ready? Put her on.

Now you hold underneath.

And can you make her dance?

Wow!

Lovely moves! Wee-eee-ee!

Up she goes. Oh, she did a twirl. Fabulous!

I bet your mum wishes she could go ice-skating with us.

What are you doing now, Mummy?

I really want to mend your car.

But I suppose I better leave it for now and try again later.

Better clean up the rest of that oily sand first.

Oh! More oil! I don't believe it!

Where is it coming from?

Do you know, all I want to do is fix Kai's car,

clean me buses and have a quiet life?

But this leaky oil keeps getting in my way! Oh, what is going wrong?

Where did the time go?

DONG!

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

I told Granny Murray that Kai wanted to watch the ice-skating on telly.

DONG! At seven o'clock, I got to work.

Mickey John popped in and slipped on oil on the floor.

He was selling spanner men to raise money for the school.

I bought one and asked Mickey John to mend Kai's car.

DONG! At eight o'clock

Mickey John rushed off, leaving Kai's car in bits.

DONG! At nine o'clock

I slipped on more oil.

Raymond caught me and asked me to dance. He was selling spanner men.

DONG!

At ten I slipped on more oil and so did Tina, like we were ice-skating.

Tina put up a poster on the bus to advertise the spanner men.

I cleaned up the oil AGAIN.

DONG! At eleven o'clock

I tried to mend Kai's car but didn't get far.

When I tried to clean the buses again I saw more oil on the floor.

How can I stop it coming?

Now, remember, nothing is impossible when you know how.

"Nothing is impossible when you know how."

Mmm...

Hang on.

What's this? An oil trail.

And it's leading all the way to... Oh!

The bus!

This oil must be coming from this leaky bus.

Right, it must need a service.

I need to ring a mechanic. Well, that's not impossible.

And I know how. Come on - it's a race against time.

DONG!

# 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 so-o-o-ong

# Do we think she's going to do it?

# Do the job that needs to be done?

# Will she know how to fix it?

# Will she finish what she has begun?

# It's a sure thing she will get there in the end

-# Cos she knows what she should do

-I'm going to do it

-She will!

# I'm going to beat the clock before the chime

-# I'm going to sort it

-She's going to sort it

# I'm going 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 so-o-o-ong. #

There - a nice clean floor and no more leaking oil, thank goodness.

And guess what!

I managed to fix Kai's toy using the spanner men. Wow!

Look at it go.

I'm thinking of you, Mummy.

Ah, Bobby! Come on.

Your mum's here, Kai.

Hiya, Kai.

Mummy.

Oh...

-You look like you've had a smashing time.

-Oh, we sure have.

-Say thanks to Granny Murray.

-Thanks.

-Clever boy!

Thanks from me too, Granny Murray. I remembered what you said.

Nothing's impossible when you know how. It saved the day.

It never did!

Come on - you'd better be off.

-I'm looking forward to next time.

-Me too.

Come on, Twinkle, let's talk about our time away.

I suppose you'll want to know all about my time too.

# Well, there was...

# Waving, greeting Hello, meeting

# Bye-bye, closing waving, building

# Eating, sleeping fetching, sketching

# Painting, stretching, gluing, chewing

# Jumping up and turning round

# Dressing up and sitting down. #

But what was really special about today?

The children dressed up Claude as an ice skater.

Bobby told me Kai wanted to watch the ice-skating on telly.

She gave me an alarm clock to remind me when to switch the telly on.

Kai gave his mum his car, but it was broken.

At eight o'clock the alarm rang and we watched telly.

Kai loved the ice-skating and tried to skate in his socks.

He was brilliant!

Later, me and Kai played an ice-skating game.

He fell asleep and I think he was dreaming

of going skating with Bobby.

In the morning, Bobby mended his favourite toy car.

Do you like fixing things?

Me too. Bye-bye, honey pie.
