0:06:28 > 0:06:32- Whatever was under the bed - was laughing.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Sali had to see it.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44- She was a little scared - but she was also very brave.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48- She jumped off the bed, - pulled the blanket back...
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- ..and shone the torch under the bed.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- What did she see?
0:06:53 > 0:06:58- Well, she saw a creature - with two arms, two hairy legs...
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- ..eating one of her socks.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07- "Excuse me," she said angrily. - "What do you think you're doing?"
0:07:07 > 0:07:11- "Oh, hello. I'm eating all - this tasty food, of course"...
0:07:11 > 0:07:15- ..replied the hairy bear-like - creature.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- "That's not food, that's my sock," - said Sali.
0:07:19 > 0:07:24- "It's lovely," replied - the... the... well, uh, the thing.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29- "One sock was enough for me and - thanks for leaving it on the floor.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30- "I was starving.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- "Where I come from, - socks are a delicacy," he said.
0:07:36 > 0:07:41- "If they're so special, why didn't - you eat two of them?" she asked.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45- "What do you think I am - a monster?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- "No, no, no, no, no.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- "We only eat one of every pair."
0:07:51 > 0:07:56- Just then, Sali's father came in - to see what was going on.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- He couldn't believe his eyes - when he saw what was in the room.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09- Sali told him that the creature - was called Fingal.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11- He was only there to eat socks.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14- Well, one sock from every pair.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Dad thought he should tell Mam.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22- Mam screamed and said she had - to see Fingal "with her own eyes."
0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Then she screamed again and fainted.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30- Soon, and after a cup of tea, - she felt much better.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- After all, Fingal had good manners.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- He didn't know - that not everyone ate socks.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40- "Ha, ha, ha, ha," he laughed.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- "Everyone at home - won't believe this."
0:08:44 > 0:08:48- "Everyone here won't believe this," - said Sally.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50- She was sad all of a sudden.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57- Once Fingal went home, - life would return to normal.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- People would sing the verse again.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Sali Sane Fach lived in town.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- On the left, one that's blue, - on the right, one that's brown.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08- One was pulled up high, - the other was right down.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- Never two socks the same - when she's around.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- She would be Sali Sane forever.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- That's when she had an idea.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- She took Fingal to school.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31- She explained to the headmaster - who he was and what he ate.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35- The headmaster - was initially dubious...
0:09:37 > 0:09:41- ..but once he sat down - and spoke to Fingal...
0:09:41 > 0:09:45- ..he agreed that he was - a pleasant little creature.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49- He gave Fingal one of his socks - to eat with his cuppa.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55- Then, Sali took him - to every classroom in school.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- Everyone loved Fingal.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- They all gave him a sock.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- Fingal was having a great time.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20- The lollipop lady, - the policeman, the postman...
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- ..everyone came to see him.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- And so, - that's the story of Sali Sane.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Oh, hang on.
0:10:36 > 0:10:41- Fingal still visited town and soon, - everyone had different socks.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- They liked Fingal so much, - they wore different socks...
0:10:45 > 0:10:49- ..but still bought pairs - just to feed Fingal.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52- And they stopped singing that verse.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- Look at all the odd socks - around the town.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59- On the left, one that's blue, - on the right, one that's brown.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02- One is pulled up high, - the other is right down.
