02:00Hello!
02:02Oh, goodness!
02:04Am I glad to be back in the warm and dry!
02:08There we go!
02:10Just a quick shake and it's goodbye to the rain!
02:17What's that doing there?
02:20It's a bucket and spade!
02:22I don't suppose there'll be many people building sandcastles on the beach today!
02:26Talking of which, I'm supposed to be going birdwatching later at the sea show with PC Plum!
02:31I don't fancy getting wet through again though!
02:35Still, the sun may come out!
02:38After all, it's a play day in Bala Mori!
02:41So I wonder what adventures we'll get up to!
02:51Strike up the band, strike up the band
02:53There is no work today
02:56Hang out the flags, pack up your bags
02:59It's a play day, hooray!
03:02We're gonna dance for a mile today
03:04Run, jump, or walk for a smile today
03:08Strike up the band, strike up the band
03:11For a play day away
03:14Jump on the bus, it's here for us
03:16There is no work, wahey!
03:19Get up, get out, it's a brand new day
03:22Raining or shining, we don't care
03:25We're out to play!
03:28Sail out on the blue
03:31Climb a hill for a view
03:33Run down to town, have a look around
03:36We're here, there, everywhere
03:39Look over here
03:42Dance if you dare
03:47Come to the fair
03:49Come to the fair
03:53Come to the fair
03:53Come on, let's have a show today
03:55Step out of style, give a smile for me
03:58And shout hooray!
04:02Take a trip on a train
04:04Take a trip on a train
04:04Fly up high in a narrow plane
04:07Give each cloud a little name
04:10Down to the ground, we'll run all around
04:13We're here, there, everywhere
04:15We're over here
04:18It's a play day
04:21Hooray!
04:24Hi
04:25Oh, that is a lovely pair of blip-flops, Shannon
04:30Oh, and yours are smashing too, Christopher
04:33They'd be better wearing Wellandons than a day like today, Miss Hooley
04:36Oh, you're right there, Katie
04:38Oh, I'm so sorry that the rain has stopped you all from enjoying the beach
04:41Hello!
04:42Oh, sounds like there's someone coming
04:46Sorry, Susie, no more room in the cafe either
04:49Busy Penny?
04:50Oh, very, I've never seen the place busier
04:53Oh, where's everyone coming from?
04:55Most of them from the mainland, hoping for a sunny day on the beach
04:58But by the time they arrived on Balamore, so are the rain
05:01Oh dear, well, would you like a hand cleaning up some of the tables?
05:05Oh, that would be a great help, Miss Hooley
05:07I'll start with this lot
05:12Oh no, I've forgotten about PC Plum
05:15He's not here too, is he?
05:17Oh no, I'm supposed to be going birdwatching with him this morning
05:21Birdwatching? In this rain?
05:22I'd much rather be here in the warm
05:25That's the last of the umbrellas, Penny
05:27They've been selling at hotcakes
05:29Haven't we any left in the storeroom?
05:31Not one
05:31I sold the last one just a minute ago
05:34And there's a line of people wanting to buy more
05:36I'll need to pick up that new delivery of brollies from the ferry terminal
05:40You can't go now, Penny
05:42There's so many customers and only one of me
05:45Miss Hooley makes two
05:47Miss Hooley?
05:49OK, Penny
05:50I'll stay here and help Susie
05:51You go off and get those brollies
05:53Aw, thanks Miss Hooley
05:54And don't worry about Plummie
05:56I'll pop in and tell them that the birdwatching's been veined off
05:59Thanks
06:02So, which coloured house do you think Penny will visit first today?
06:12Can you see all the different coloured houses sitting by the sea?
06:17Well, it's part of the story in Ballamorius
06:21Which is the house for me?
06:24Is it orange?
06:26Is it red?
06:27Or should we go to the blue house instead?
06:30Yellow, green, white or pink?
06:32Tell me what do you think?
06:35Orange house, yellow, red, blue house or pink?
06:41Green house, white house
06:44Tell me what do you think?
06:52Which coloured house are we going to?
06:55Tell me what do you think?
06:58Which coloured house are we going to?
07:01Tell me what do you think?
07:04It's the White House!
07:07Yes, it's the White House because that's where PC Plum lives
07:14Now, where are they?
07:16Aha!
07:17There they are!
07:18My binoculars!
07:20Perfect for spotting seabirds bobbing about in the waves
07:25Oh!
07:25There's a cuckoo!
07:27On time as usual
07:31And there's...
07:33Penny Pocket!
07:34Oh, do it. I'm pleased I caught you in, Plummie
07:37Yes, I'm still here, but not for long
07:39I'm going out for a walk with Miss Hooley
07:40Oh yes, I swear
07:41We're going to see if we can spot some seabirds
07:44Now, I've got my wet weather jacket and my binoculars
07:49Plummie!
07:49It won't be a tick Penny
07:50I just need to see if I can remember my...
07:53Oh no, it's not there
07:56Over here, right
08:00No, no, not there
08:02Um...
08:02Oh!
08:05Got it, my bird spotter's guide
08:07Miss Hooley and I are hoping to spot some of the birds in here today
08:10But that's just it
08:12Miss Hooley asked me to call in to tell you that she won't be able to go birdwatching today
08:16She's not ill, is she?
08:18No, she's busy helping Susie back at the shop
08:20All this rain is sending people flooding in for brollies and shelter
08:25I'm just on my way at the ferry terminal to pick up some more brollies
08:28Lots of people, you say?
08:29Yeah, it's chaos
08:30Chaos?
08:32Well, if I'm not going birdwatching with Miss Hooley, why don't I come and help you out at the shop?
08:36Oh, great!
08:38Let's get cracking
08:39Hmm?
08:39First off, ferry terminal
09:00Right, everybody, just watch your feet
09:03I'm mopping up all the raindrop...
09:07...drills
09:07Oh no, it looks like things are as busy as ever in here
09:12Oh, Penny, thank goodness you're here
09:14All these folk are waiting to buy brollies
09:17Well, there's plenty to go around in here, Susie
09:20Oh, brilliant
09:21That'll keep them happy
09:23I think you need some crowd control in here
09:52Oh, yes
09:55Right
09:55How are you there?
09:56How are you getting on?
09:57Okay, but there are a lot of bored children
10:00Well, they were expecting a day on the beach
10:03Well, they need to entertain them, but I'm too busy clearing the tables
10:07Who can we get to entertain them?
10:10Maybe even give them a sing song?
10:11Well, if it's a sing song, then we need a music man
10:16Of course, Spencer!

12:09Oh, thanks for coming so soon, Spencer.
12:12That's OK, Penny. So what's the story in Balamori?
12:14Well, it all started this morning when...
12:20Everyone came into the shop and cafe to shelter from the rain.
12:25Miss Hooley offered to help serve the customers
12:28while I went off to collect a delivery of brollies from the ferry terminal.
12:33As I was passing the police station, I popped in to see Plummy
12:36to tell him that Miss Hooley couldn't go birdwatching with him
12:39because she was helping Susie in the shop.
12:42Plummy decided to help me carry all the brollies back to the shop from the ferry terminal.
12:48But back at the cafe here, there were lots of bored children.
12:53They had expected a day on the beach, not stuck indoors.
12:59Which is why we called you. We thought you might organise a sing-song.
13:03Sing-song? It sounds like these children want to go to the beach.
13:07But it's raining.
13:09Then why not bring the seaside inside?
13:12How?
13:14First, I'm going to need some sugar paper and coloured tissue and lots of string.
13:21Some yellow plant pots.
13:24Three yellow plant pots.
13:27And this yellow sheet.
13:29That would be perfect.
13:31We also have them in blue.
13:32Oh, blue would be great too.
13:34And what else?
13:36That paddling pool and those deck chairs would finish it off a real treat.
13:41Finish off what, Spencer?
13:42Spencer's bringing the seaside inside.
13:45What in here?
13:47Is there room?
13:48No.
13:49There's hardly room for any of us.
13:51Let alone deck chairs and sandcastles.
13:54Oh, Susie's right, Spencer.
13:56There's just no room in here or the cafe.
13:59Well, there's plenty of space at my house.
14:02You mean...
14:03Well, why not?
14:04If it means the children have a day to remember, then go for it.
14:08Great.
14:09I'll head off right now to get everything set.
14:22Okay, let's bring the seaside inside, shall we?
14:55Let's bring the seaside inside.
15:04Perfect.
15:11Oh, wow.
15:14This is fabulous, Spencer.
15:17Thanks, Miss Healy.
15:18Everyone, welcome to our seaside inside beach party.
15:30Okay, let's get on the sand, let's get on the sand, and it'll get us into the seaside mode, okay?
15:38This is sand.
15:40Can you hear the seagulls chattering overhead?
15:44I can see a crab there as well.
15:49Yeah, there are crabs.
15:50Can you name anything else you can see on the beach?
15:54What is that?
15:56A starfish.
15:57That's right.
15:58Check this out.
15:59What do you think that is right here?
16:02A sandcastle.
16:02Come on in.
16:03Come on in.
16:04Yeah, let's go paddle.
16:05Nice.
16:06I'm sad.
16:08He wants to splash more.
16:10Yeah.
16:11Choo-choo.
16:14Choo-choo.
16:31Choo-choo.
16:32Choo-choo.
16:33Choo-choo.
16:34Choo-choo.
16:35What is this thing, babe?
16:35Simeon.
16:36Who likes some ice-cream?
16:37Yes, do you like some ice-cream.
16:39There you go.
16:42That's an ice-cream in the garden.
16:44This was a great seaside inside day.
17:01So, what was the story in Ballymorey today?
17:05Well, McCaffey was very busy this morning, everyone was sheltering from the pouring rain.
17:15Penny and Susie were very busy, so I offered to help.
17:21Penny went to collect more umbrellas from the ferry terminal.
17:25PC Plum went with her and helped in the shop too.
17:28In the café the children were bored because they wanted to be down on the beach.
17:34Spencer came to the rescue.
17:37He decided to bring the seaside inside and organised a fantastic hula beach party at
17:44my house for the children.
17:46We had great fun, and ice cream too.
17:52I'll see you soon.
17:53Bye!
