00:00The End
00:30We had a bat. Oh, no, we had a bat.
00:36And I can't think what's happened to it.
00:38We swapped it for a giant cathering wheel on Guy Fawkes Day.
00:41Don't you remember?
00:42Crumbs. Fancy doing that.
00:43We must have been batty.
00:45We had stumps too. I bet we didn't swap them for anything.
00:47No, we used them for playing ice hockey.
00:50And they all got broke.
00:51Couldn't you think we had more sense
00:52messing about with valuable things like cricket stumps?
00:55What about the ball?
00:57Don't you remember?
00:58It went into General Malt's cucumber frame,
01:00and he kept it.
01:01He would.
01:02I suppose we started taking things off them.
01:04A nice fuss there'd make.
01:06You can get a quickie set of a seven and six in the village shop,
01:09a bat, ball and everything.
01:11I saw it in the windows.
01:12Fat law use that is to us.
01:14But we've not got sixpence, let alone seven and six.
01:23Thrap and take me.
01:25We're not much likely to get any more either
01:27with all belong to such mean families.
01:29Funny, isn't it?
01:30The white grown-ups seem to get money whenever they want it.
01:33Just go to the bank and get it out.
01:35I jolly well wish I was grown-up.
01:37Except they never want to do anything interesting
01:39with their money when they've got it.
01:41I knew a grown-up once.
01:42What? Paid to learn French?
01:44Paid to learn French?
01:46Gosh.
01:47Well, we've got to do something.
01:49Yes, but what?
01:50How do grown-ups get money?
01:51Well, they say they work for it.
01:53Not that it seems much like work to me.
01:55For what I hear of it,
01:57sitting about in an office,
01:58ringing a telephone and going out to lunch with people.
02:01I like them to try real work for a bit,
02:04like what we have to do.
02:06I bet I'd sooner ring a telephone
02:08and go out to lunch with people,
02:09like what they have to do,
02:11than slave away at sums and French verbs and stuff
02:14till my brain wore out,
02:16like what I have to do.
02:26.
02:30.
02:31.
02:38.
02:38.
02:43.
