# Hello, my name is Mr Bloom

0:00:050:00:07

# And I'd like to come to see you soon

0:00:070:00:10

# I'm out on the road, you see

0:00:100:00:12

# Here and there, so that we

0:00:120:00:14

# Can get together and have some fun

0:00:140:00:17

# I'll help you out if there's work to be done

0:00:190:00:21

# So, where is it you like to go?

0:00:230:00:26

# Call me up and let me know

0:00:260:00:28

# What is it you like to do?

0:00:280:00:31

# I'll pop along and do it, too

0:00:310:00:33

# Cities, towns, the countryside

0:00:330:00:36

# I can travel far and wide

0:00:360:00:38

# I'm all about and everywhere

0:00:380:00:40

# I'm here and there

0:00:400:00:42

# Here and there

0:00:430:00:45

# I'm here and there. #

0:00:450:00:48

BIRDSONG

0:00:480:00:50

Hello, tiddlers! How are you tiddling?

0:00:510:00:54

Ha! Ha! Mr Bloom here. I like going about.

0:00:540:00:58

I like going here and there, doing lots of fun things

0:00:580:01:01

and finding out about new places.

0:01:010:01:03

I've been wondering, what do you like to do where you live?

0:01:030:01:06

Hmm? Perhaps you might like to ride your bike in the park

0:01:060:01:09

or go for walks in the woods with your family?

0:01:090:01:12

BELL DINGS

0:01:120:01:13

Ooh, brilliant. Someone's got in touch.

0:01:130:01:15

Shall we see who it is? Yeah.

0:01:150:01:18

SHEEP BLEAT

0:01:180:01:20

I'm Emma and I love going for walks with my mum and dad.

0:01:230:01:27

You have to close gates in the countryside,

0:01:320:01:35

so the animals can't get out.

0:01:350:01:37

SHEEP BLEAT

0:01:380:01:40

When we get to the top of that hill

0:01:400:01:42

we'll be ready for something to eat, won't we?

0:01:420:01:45

I think I'll have a cheese sandwich

0:01:450:01:47

and a bottle of water, to help me climb Pendle Hill.

0:01:470:01:50

Oh, good boy, Rollo.

0:01:550:01:57

That's my favourite bit about walking, seeing the animals,

0:01:570:02:01

especially the ponies.

0:02:010:02:02

PONY NEIGHS

0:02:020:02:04

I'm lucky, too, because I get to come here to have riding lessons.

0:02:060:02:10

Please come for a visit.

0:02:150:02:17

Sounds good to me.

0:02:170:02:18

I'm on my way.

0:02:180:02:20

# Whereabouts will I end up next?

0:02:260:02:28

# Let's put my route finder to the test

0:02:310:02:33

# It could be a beach a village or a city

0:02:350:02:38

# Museum or a school a garden so pretty

0:02:380:02:40

# A church or a station a river or a town

0:02:400:02:43

# I just can't wait until you show me around

0:02:430:02:45

# Tiddlers, I'm on my way

0:02:450:02:48

# So, where am I today? #

0:02:480:02:52

This looks like the right place. I wonder where I'll find Emma?

0:03:000:03:04

PONY NEIGHS

0:03:050:03:07

Now, I recognise that sound.

0:03:070:03:09

Maybe she's this way.

0:03:090:03:11

Erm, excuse me, mate. Have you seen Emma?

0:03:140:03:17

Hello, Mr Bloom. This is Rollo and that's Georgia.

0:03:170:03:21

It's nice to meet you, Emma. Nice to meet Rollo and Georgia, too.

0:03:210:03:25

What are you up to?

0:03:250:03:27

I'm doing my horse's saddle, so he can go out for a ride.

0:03:270:03:31

Fantastic!

0:03:310:03:33

It looks like Rollo's got lots of things to wear

0:03:330:03:36

before you can ride him.

0:03:360:03:37

There's a saddle for you to sit on,

0:03:370:03:40

a bridle around his head and some reins for you to hold on to.

0:03:400:03:45

-Are you ready to go riding?

-Yes.

0:03:450:03:48

OK. Well, lead on.

0:03:480:03:49

Let's go.

0:03:510:03:53

Horses are quite nosy.

0:03:530:03:54

They love to watch what's going on.

0:03:540:03:56

Right. Have fun, Emma.

0:04:000:04:02

One, two, three, up.

0:04:050:04:07

I think I'll go and watch from up there.

0:04:110:04:14

It's not just Rollo who gets all the special equipment.

0:04:190:04:22

No. Look what Emma's got.

0:04:220:04:24

She's got horse-riding boots. They fit in the stirrups.

0:04:240:04:27

She's also wearing a pair of jodhpurs.

0:04:270:04:30

That's a fancy name for horse-riding trousers.

0:04:300:04:33

Then, she's wearing a horse-riding vest and a horse-riding hat.

0:04:340:04:38

What they do is they keep you safe.

0:04:380:04:39

If you fall off, you don't hurt yourself.

0:04:390:04:42

For holding on to the reins, she's got gloves. Yeah.

0:04:420:04:47

Trot on.

0:04:480:04:49

Eh, lovely jumping, Emma!

0:04:520:04:55

I've got to say, I'm very impressed.

0:04:550:04:58

Well done, Rollo. Well done, Emma.

0:04:580:05:00

-Was that good fun?

-Mm-hm.

0:05:000:05:02

I'll tell you what.

0:05:020:05:03

It must be a lot of hard work looking after a horse like Rollo.

0:05:030:05:06

It is.

0:05:060:05:08

And I've got another pony.

0:05:080:05:09

-I see. What's this pony called?

-Fifi.

-Fifi?!

0:05:090:05:14

Do you think we've got time to visit Fifi?

0:05:140:05:16

-Mm-hm.

-We have?

0:05:160:05:17

All right, then.

0:05:170:05:19

As you said to Rollo, trot on.

0:05:190:05:22

Emma has brought me to a special home for horses, ponies and donkeys.

0:05:340:05:38

It's a place where animals come if their owners

0:05:390:05:41

couldn't take care of them.

0:05:410:05:43

This is where Emma and other tiddlers come to visit Fifi.

0:05:430:05:46

Hello.

0:05:500:05:51

There's a lot of horses here, aren't there?

0:05:510:05:54

Yes, Mr Bloom. We might find Fifi and my friends down here.

0:05:540:05:59

Oh. I think, here they are.

0:05:590:06:01

Hello, tiddlers!

0:06:010:06:02

-Hello, Mr Bloom. My name is Jonah.

-Hello, Mr Bloom. My name is Harriet.

0:06:020:06:08

It's nice to see you, Harriet and Jonah.

0:06:080:06:11

What brings you here today, Jonah?

0:06:110:06:13

We are here to learn how to look after ponies.

0:06:130:06:16

Really? Is there one pony that you look after in particular?

0:06:160:06:20

-Fifi.

-Fifi. She's there.

0:06:200:06:23

Is this Fifi? And you look after Fifi, as well?

0:06:230:06:26

My goodness me!

0:06:260:06:29

Is there anyone else here you might like to introduce me to?

0:06:290:06:32

-Red.

-Red. Right.

0:06:320:06:33

Shall we go and meet Red? Come on, then. Let's go.

0:06:330:06:38

Red is a Shetland pony who lives at the stables, too.

0:06:380:06:41

Hello, there!

0:06:430:06:44

Hey, now, tiddlers. Very small, isn't he?

0:06:440:06:47

I think he might be smaller than Fifi.

0:06:470:06:51

But look over there! Look at that big horse!

0:06:510:06:55

That horse is bigger than Fifi and Red put together!

0:06:550:06:57

I wonder, tiddlers. Do you know how you measure horses and ponies?

0:06:570:07:02

Do you know, Harriet?

0:07:020:07:03

Hands.

0:07:030:07:05

That's right. Very good. You measure them in hands.

0:07:050:07:08

Look at this! This is a special horse and pony ruler.

0:07:080:07:13

Yeah.

0:07:130:07:14

You put it up against a horse

0:07:140:07:16

and if you're taller than this line here,

0:07:160:07:20

that means you're a horse.

0:07:200:07:21

But if you're smaller than that line, it means you're a...

0:07:210:07:24

ALL: A pony.

0:07:240:07:25

You're a pony. That's right. Shall we find out how tall Red is?

0:07:250:07:30

-ALL: Yeah.

-OK. Bring this round here.

0:07:300:07:33

Will I point that to his withers? What would you say?

0:07:350:07:37

I'd say Red is about eight hands high. Let's count again.

0:07:370:07:42

One, two, three,

0:07:420:07:45

four, five, six,

0:07:450:07:48

seven, eight.

0:07:480:07:50

So what does that mean? A horse or a pony?

0:07:500:07:53

ALL: A pony.

0:07:530:07:54

He's a pony, that's right. But that big fella's definitely a horse.

0:07:540:07:58

Look, he's well over 14 hands high.

0:07:580:08:02

But you have to be careful around horses

0:08:020:08:04

and even little ponies, like Red.

0:08:040:08:06

What sort of things do you have to do?

0:08:060:08:08

Erm, don't go round the back or the front,

0:08:080:08:11

because it might hurt you.

0:08:110:08:13

CLOCK CHIMES

0:08:130:08:14

Oh, hey...hey, but look here...

0:08:140:08:17

The route finder wants to show us some more things

0:08:170:08:20

about horses and ponies.

0:08:200:08:22

There are horses and ponies all over the world.

0:08:250:08:28

In the wild, they like to live in families, just like us,

0:08:280:08:32

but big families, though.

0:08:320:08:35

These horses help guard the Queen's palace.

0:08:360:08:40

And before tractors were invented,

0:08:420:08:45

Shire horses helped the farmer plough his fields.

0:08:450:08:49

And these horses can even dance!

0:08:500:08:53

But really, ponies are happiest when they're just horsing around.

0:08:560:09:01

So while those tiddlers take Red back to his stable, I thought

0:09:080:09:11

I'd come and meet some other chaps, find out what they're up to.

0:09:110:09:15

-Hello, you lot!

-ALL: Hello, Mr Bloom.

0:09:150:09:18

-So, what is going on here?

-We're cleaning out Fifi's stable.

-Right.

0:09:180:09:22

You're mucking out the stables, but, what other things do you do here?

0:09:220:09:27

On this block, you could adopt a horse or pony

0:09:270:09:31

-and you can come up and groom him and things like that.

-Right.

0:09:310:09:35

So, you muck them out, you groom them.

0:09:350:09:37

-Adopting a pony is about taking care of them, is that right?

-Yeah.

0:09:370:09:41

I see. Hey, that's a top job, you lot. Is it ready for Fifi now?

0:09:410:09:46

Yeah, I can go and get her from the field.

0:09:460:09:48

The older children who have adopted horses and ponies here

0:09:480:09:52

also learn how to bring them in from the field safely.

0:09:520:09:56

They go with a grown-up, like Laura,

0:09:560:09:58

and take care to close the gate, so that the other animals don't escape.

0:09:580:10:02

Put the collar on.

0:10:020:10:04

HORSE BRAYS

0:10:290:10:30

Here we go, Reuben.

0:10:320:10:34

There you go, Fifi. Come on.

0:10:370:10:39

Well, everybody, I can certainly see why you enjoy being here.

0:10:510:10:55

I've had a fantastic time learning about horses and ponies.

0:10:550:10:59

A big thank you to you, Emma, for inviting me.

0:10:590:11:01

But you know, it's high time I hit the road, so join me soon

0:11:010:11:05

when I'll be.

0:11:050:11:06

ALL: Here and there.

0:11:060:11:08

-You're right. Bye-bye.

-ALL: Bye.
