00:30There was something new at the flumps.
00:40Perkin didn't know what it was.
00:44Oops!
00:48Neither did Posy.
00:51Oops!
00:54Why are you sitting on the floor? said Perkin.
00:57Why are you? said Posy.
01:00Because I trod on this.
01:07So did I.
01:09Is it yours?
01:11Oh, funny.
01:17I wonder what that was, thought Pootle.
01:22Oh, there it goes again.
01:25And again.
01:27Oh, I'll catch it next time.
01:31Missed.
01:32Oh, well.
01:35That's funny.
01:37I wonder what it's doing.
01:40Hello, Pootle, said Posy.
01:43Did you see that thing roll by?
01:46Yes.
01:47It went that way.
01:49There it is.
01:51Perkin's got it.
01:53What is it?
01:53Hello, said Mother.
01:56What are you up to?
01:58You've got one of the roller skates.
02:00I didn't know Father had finished making them yet.
02:04Where's the other one?
02:06I don't know.
02:09Why are there two?
02:11What are they for?
02:12There are always two roller skates, one for each foot, said Mother.
02:19You strap them on your feet and roller skate around.
02:23Father Flump's been making them for you.
02:26Why don't you go and ask him where the other one is?
02:31Father Flump was using it to help him move things.
02:36Right.
02:37That saved a bit of huff and puff, he said.
02:40I'll go and get another one.
02:43Pootle was having a ride on the skate.
02:46There's Father, said Posy.
02:48And there's the other skate, said Perkin.
02:52Hello, said Father.
02:54Looking for this, I was just using it to roll some wood along.
02:59And we were just rolling Pootle along with the other one, said Posy.
03:04You know, said Perkin, skates are very good at moving things.
03:09Well, that's why I'd like to borrow this one for a bit longer, said Father.
03:15Just until I've moved all my wood.
03:17It won't take long.
03:19All right.
03:21We'll play with this one for a while.
03:23That was a good one, said Pootle.
03:33When's it my turn?
03:35You'd fall off, said Perkin.
03:37Here you are, Perkin, said Posy.
03:39Your turn now.
03:41Right, said Perkin.
03:43Where shall I start from?
03:44Ready?
03:48Five, four, three, two, one, go!
03:54Grandfather was feeling very tired.
03:57Hello, Grandfather.
03:58We've got a roller skate.
04:02Have you?
04:03I could do with something like that to take some of the weight off this flumpet.
04:09I must be very tired, you know.
04:12It seems to weigh a ton today.
04:15I know.
04:16Got an idea.
04:18It's just a thing.
04:21Well, a skating flumpet.
04:27Just what I needed.
04:30Thank you, all of you.
04:33Mother flumpet was mixing a cake for tea.
04:40I hope this new recipe works out, she said.
04:44Mmm, it smells all right.
04:47That seems the right consistency.
04:52I'll let it stand for a bit.
04:55There we are.
04:58Hello.
04:59Where are the skates?
05:00We lent one to Father to move some wood,
05:03and the other one to Grandfather to help him carry the flumpet.
05:07Skates are good for moving things.
05:10That's right, said Mother.
05:12They're very useful.
05:14Wheels can always lighten a load.
05:17I think there's something about wheels in the book.
05:22Yes, look.
05:23Listen to the sound of the wheels going round,
05:42making music with the ground.
05:45Hear them humming low as along the road they go,
05:49making music with the ground.
05:52Listen to the sound of the wheels turning round,
06:02printing patterns as they wind.
06:06Watch the wheels go by as along the road they fly,
06:11printing patterns you can find,
06:14patterns as they wind.
06:16wheels turning round through the puddles on the ground,
06:45wheels turning round.
06:46It's a wet and muddy sound.
06:48Hear the wheels hiss as along the road they swish.
06:53It's a wet and muddy sound.
06:56Wheels turning round.
07:00So,
07:14do you like my skating?
07:16Do you like my skating flumpet, Mother Flump?
07:33Now that's what I call a good idea.
07:37Could I borrow that skate for just a mow, please, Grandfather?
07:41Are you going skating? asked Pootle.
07:50No, but my mop and bucket are. Look!
07:55With a little help from these wheels, I can move them along without any trouble.
08:06And I could move the vegetable basket without getting an aching back.
08:11If we put the tray on the skate, we could have meals on wheels.
08:28Could we have our tea quicker, then?
08:30Hello.
08:40Hello.
08:42I can see I'm going to be asked to put wheels on nearly everything in the house now.
08:47But I think I'll start with Posy and Perkin.
08:53Here's a pair of roller skates for you, Posy.
08:57And here's the other one I borrowed from you, Perkin.
09:00Thank you. It was very useful.
09:03Don't I get any skates?
09:08You're too little to skate, Pootle.
09:10It's not easy, you know.
09:12And you'd fall over all the time if you were on wheels.
09:17That's right, said Father.
09:19So here's something on wheels that's safe for you to play with.
09:24Cool.
09:25Pootle collected his things and put them in his cart
09:33and carted them off.
09:42Perkin, do you know how to skate?
09:46Um, well, uh, well, uh, actually, um, you see, uh, no.
09:56Well, how do we start?
09:59Well, there's only one way to find out.
10:02That's right, said Mother.
10:04And I think you'd better go out into the yard to learn.
10:16See you next time.
11:07Why, I must say, you're getting quite good on those skates, you two, said Grandfather.
11:27Oh, it seems the whole family's on wheels today.
11:33Look, here come the others on the flumpsicle.
11:38Oh, it seems the whole family's on wheels today.
12:08Oh, it seems the whole family's on wheels today.
12:38Oh, it seems the whole family's on wheels today.
12:42Oh, it seems the whole family's on wheels today.
12:52You
