-Ooh!

-Meow... Meow!

Phew, what a lot of mail today, Pat!

Yes, the sorting machine broke down.

This is a whole week's worth of Greendale mail.

-You'll never get this sorted today, let alone delivered.

-Tell you what,

-I'll bring my old sorting machine round, if you like.

-Would you, Ted?

-No problem.

-I might make it yet, Ajay.

-Nay, Pat.

If you can deliver all that today, I'll dress up in my pyjamas

-and run round the village.

-Bet you I can deliver it all

-AND be back by tea time tonight.

-But if you don't make it,

you've got to run round the village in your pyjamas.

THAT sounds like a challenge.

Meow?!

Meow!

Right then, Jess, we'd best get a move on.

Make sure your pyjamas are clean!

-And a one, and a two, and a three, and a...

-Ooh!

-Sorry, Charlie.

-That's OK. We were doing really well then.

-Let's stand a bit closer and see if we can do four.

-OK, Julian,

see if you can beat 20 keepie-uppies.

One, two, three, four, five...

-Oh!

-Don't worry, Julian,

-not everyone can be as good as me!

-What do you mean?

-I can't help being good!

-But you can help being bigheaded!

-Way aye, what's going on?

-We're playing keepie-uppies.

-I'm trying to break Bill's record.

-He can't - I'm too good!

Now, now, Bill, you never know, Julian might just beat you one day.

-Never happen, Julian Clifton!

-We'll see, Bill Thompson!

Oh, just look at all this mail!

Are you sure your machine can handle it, Ted?

Don't you worry, Mrs Goggins,

-my machine'll have all this done in a jiffy.

-I hope so, Ted.

Greendale's never gone a week without post before.

-You've got your work cut out with this lot, Pat.

-Yes.

Ajay's challenged me to deliver it all by tea time, or...

-Or what, Pat?

-I've got to run round the village in my pyjamas!

-Oh, Pat!

-Ha-ha-ha, we'd better get started, then!

There you are - first lot done already. Come on.

There, all done. Thanks, Ted.

-You might not have to run around in your pyjamas after all.

-Ha-ha!

Never fear, Mrs Goggins, I'm going to set a new record today

for the most post I've ever delivered.

Now, our next lesson is maths.

-Oh!

-Eurgh!

-Boring!

-Oh!

-Aye, but this is going to be a special maths lesson.

-ALL: Special?!

-I noticed how some of you counted

catches in your keepie-uppies in the yard and I thought it'd be fun

-to have a record breaking day today.

-ALL: What's that, sir?

We'll count how many times you can all do an activity.

-The one who does the most will be the record holder.

-Like me, sir?

-I'm the keepie-uppies record holder, sir!

-That's right, Bill.

But if someone does more than you, they'll break your record.

That's going to be ME!

(No, it's not, you'll never beat me!)

Right, keepie-uppies can be one of the activities. What else?

-Throwing beanbags.

-Sir, sir, Mr Pringle!

-Mr Pringle, Mr Pringle!

What about balancing books on our heads, sir?

-Good. Anything else?

-What about skipping, sir?

And skipping. Thank you, Meera.

Right, let's get you into groups. I'll hand out paper and pencils

-to help you keep count.

-ALL: Hooray!

Are you all right, Pat?

Yes, thanks, it's taken all morning to sort and load the mail,

-and I've only got until tea time to deliver it.

-Oh, well,

I'm sure if anyone can do it, you can. Good luck!

Five, six, seven, eight,

nine...

-Oh!

-How are they doing, Bill?

-They got nine that time, sir.

-Your go, Bill!

Hey, watch this, Julian!

I'll do three at once!

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,

nine, ten... Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!

-THE OTHERS LAUGH

-Post!

I'm going to get the post. THEY LAUGH

-What's going on, Bill?

-We're having a record breaking day.

-We're setting records and trying to break them.

-That sounds like fun.

I'm being a record breaker too. I've got loads of mail to deliver today.

Cool! Good luck, Pat.

And you, Bill.

Bye!

See ya!

Come on, Jess, we haven't got a minute to lose.

-Hmm, it'll take too long to go up and down each path.

-Meow.

There's only one thing for it...

Meow!

Meow!

Phew!

Well, that's saved me some time.

Come on, Jess, we can't hang around.

Meow!

Ooh-ah-ooh...

Agh! Oh!

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Julian balanced ten books!

My go! My go!

Hey, Bill, you've got 11 books,

you've broken Julian's record!

Yeah, well, it's not hard.

Huh!

A-a-a-a-aah!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Er, nice one, Bill(!)

At least I got the record!

HE RINGS THE DOORBELL

22, 23, 24...

-Agh!

-THEY GASP

Oh!

You've done it - you broke my record!

Well done, everyone.

Now it's time for the last activity of the day - keepie-uppie.

ALL: Hooray!

Sorry, Dorothy, I've got to get the mail delivered by tea time,

-or I'll have to wear my pyjamas.

-Oh.

Did he say summat about pyjamas?

-Hey, Jess, we're doing well!

-Meow!

We might be finished by tea time after all.

One, two, three, four, five, six...

O-o-o-ooh!

Never mind, Meera.

Who's next?

Meow.

Meow!

Ooh!

Meow!

Phew!

That's it, Jess. I'll just drop the postbag at the post office

before we see Ajay. I can't wait to see his face!

Meow!

Just Julian and Bill left now. Who wants to go first?

Me, me!

All right, Bill, off you go.

Watch a master at work!

-THE OTHERS:

-One, two, three,

-four...

-What's wrong, Julian?

I really want to set a record at keepie-uppie,

but Bill's so good, and he's been teasing me all day.

But you MIGHT beat his record.

I don't think so, look!

..27, 28,

29, 30!

Record breaker, yea-a-a-a-ah!

Well done, Bill!

Your turn now, Julian.

(You can do it!)

-THE OTHERS:

-One, two, three, four...

You've really upset Julian, you know.

-Why?

-Because you kept on teasing him.

I didn't mean to upset him though.

I were just having fun, that's all.

-Bill, Bill, Julian's nearly beaten your record!

-Eh?!

..27, 28, 29, 30,

31, 32! 32!

Well done, Julian, you broke Bill's record.

ALL: Hooray!

Well done, Julian! Erm, I'm sorry I teased you today.

Thanks, Bill. That's OK.

Oh, well done, Pat. I wouldn't have thought it possible.

All in a day's work, Mrs Goggins.

Oh, no, I forgot one letter!

And it's for Ajay!

Bye, Mrs Goggins.

Dad, Dad, we had a record breaking day today,

and I broke the skipping record!

And I broke the keepie-uppie record!

Record breakers, eh?

Well done, both of you. Your dad's been trying to break

-a record too, Julian.

-What do you mean?

-I challenged him to deliver

all the mail and be back here before tea time, or run around Greendale

in his pyjamas. THEY LAUGH

It's nearly tea time now.

-Hello, everyone.

-Hey, here he is, he's made it!

Not yet. Look, he's still got one letter left.

Dad, Dad, quick!

What do you think, Jess?

Meow.

Time for tea!

You made it, Dad!

You know what this means, love?

Hee-hee! You've... Ha-ha-ha-ha!

Right, here I come.

No laughing now!

THEY GASP

Meow.

THEY LAUGH

Ooh! I should have known not to challenge a record-breaking postman!

-Cheerio!

-Ooh!
