01:01Hello? Margaret? This is your mum speaking. I'm sorry I'm not here now, but that's because
01:09I'm somewhere else. I say, I'm somewhere else! And... but I expect you'll both be up here
01:17soon, won't you? The pair of you? So I'll see you then! Hello?
01:23Hello, Mum. It's Wednesday, about six o'clock.
01:26I'm just ringing to say that all being well,
01:28we'll be up there Sunday afternoon, about three.
01:31But I'll speak to you soon. Bye-bye.
01:47Any luck? How did it go?
01:50Any luck? How did it go?
01:52Yes, very well, surprisingly.
01:55See, the wild man of Borneo said another good day in the garden.
02:00Quicker using a trained lugworm at this rate.
02:02Well, who got him in? Not me.
02:04There was no necessity for it in the first place.
02:06There's ever a necessity with that bloody tree next door
02:08sucking all the moisture out of our garden like an elephant's trunk.
02:13Get his roots chopped off on our side,
02:15we might be able to grow something out there again.
02:19He's charged me for one guppy too many here.
02:23I know, I tell a lie, he hasn't.
02:25So, how did you get on at the Herald offices?
02:28Did you get that job on the packing bench or what?
02:30They're going to ring me up and let me know tomorrow.
02:32They say I have to be sure I'll be in between nine and one.
02:35Oh, well, that sounds hopeful, doesn't it?
02:41I hope you're going to have the decency to take the dead ones out first this time.
02:46Yes, I am.
02:47Where's the tea strainer?
03:04Good grief!
03:07That's 127 of those things you've managed to kill off now.
03:12I've never heard anything like it since biblical times.
03:15You flattened 12 in one go when you dropped that rock in the tank.
03:19It's just teething troubles, that's all.
03:21I think I know what I'm doing wrong now.
03:24Fish have a better life expectancy in the co-op freezer
03:26than they do in that thing.
03:29Oh, and can we please not flush them down the toilet this time,
03:33as half the bloody things come floating back up again?
03:36Yes.
03:45Anyway, everything's under control now.
03:47I've just got a few more adjustments to make to this air flow
03:50and they'll be fine.
03:51By the way, I've spoken to Marnie this afternoon.
03:54She's beginning to get the hang of that answering machine more now.
03:57I don't really know why you got one for her on the first place.
04:00You know she never goes far.
04:01She might go a bit further if she stopped growing
04:04and ran her beans up her zimmer frame.
04:06I don't think she's going to go any further.
04:08I'm sure she'll be fine.
04:09I'm sure she'll be fine.
04:10I'm sure she'll be fine.
04:11I'm sure she'll be fine.
04:13I'm sure she'll be fine.
04:14You know you got to fill up your zimmer frame.
04:17I said we'd pop up there Sunday afternoon.
04:20You'd bat here by the minute.
04:21I went over there the other week.
04:23She was slicing waxfruit onto her old ran.
04:26Says it keeps her regular.
04:27Keeps her regular, so does a stick of dynamite up your chest.
04:32I could hear them talking next door.
04:34Where's that glass?
04:35God, Sparrows, here we go again.
04:38They're talking about us.
04:40I just caught the words,
04:42Asshole think he's playing out
04:48Wonder what's happening
04:56That's five lots of them he's brought home in the last week
04:59Won't be surprised if he's eating them on Ritz crackers
05:02Am I gonna get my spaghetti jar back again tonight or what?
05:06Hmm. Well, what was that and our friend homo erectus out the back? You never know what you're gonna see there next
05:13Hmm
05:16Quite nearby somewhere comes out for a few hours each day to lumber around Meldrews garden with a shovel in his fist
05:24Quite sure why you're talking about that workman next door. I think he looks cute
05:31Cute never seen so much hair going down someone's back in all my life blow dries bottom every morning
05:38I
05:40Tell you if he damages that cherry tree, they'll be all hell to pay
05:44Here you go
05:46Come on
05:49Wonder why he only eats cat food
05:52Don't look at me. He's your baby substitute
05:56What's that supposed to mean? I brought him for you
05:58Yes
06:00Of course you did
06:02I
06:06Wonder what the weather's gonna be like

20:21Very closely Patrick
20:25Oh
20:29Yes, just up to the hospital, you know to have a hermit crab surgically removed from my testicles
20:36Well, I say hermit crab it wasn't demonstrating much in the way of hermitude when it popped into my shorts earlier on for lunch
20:44And fastened itself to my scrotum like a bulldog clip
20:46I
20:50Only got myself to blame on that one. I'm afraid the old old story
20:54I remember to apply the sunscreen, but completely forgot to smear my groin with crab repellent
21:01I paid the price
21:05Nice look very red. Yes. Well, they would do wouldn't they?
21:11Makes you wonder where things like that come from doesn't it doesn't it mrs. Meldrum? Yes, doesn't it?
21:17Changing the subject altogether. How's mr. Meldrum getting on with his collection of exotic marine wildlife?
21:23No escaped specimens to report
21:27No, no, I don't think so. Oh
21:31I'm sorry, but I think that's my phone. Would you excuse me, please both of you? Yes, Margaret. See you later
21:46I
22:05Was a bit of a mix-up at the work
22:09Was it and
22:13One of those stupid things you do
22:17Yes, yes, I do indeed mr. Meldrum
22:31Oh
22:38I'm bloody marvelous
22:40What am I gonna tell about the Herald? I'm sorry. I never came into her but unfortunately
22:45My leg
22:50What is it now
22:52Who's that? It was mrs. Reynolds who lives next door to mum
22:59Said she went round there this afternoon with her pension and found her dead in the armchair
23:07Said they reckoned she'd been like that for five days
23:13Just sitting there with her knitting in her lap
23:22Telephone answering machine had been left on since Monday
23:30God
23:35Sorry
23:39Yes
23:41Well
23:45Get your shower
23:57Still not sure about that. It was all right at her place, but I'm not sure about ours
24:05Grandparents had one I
24:06Always remember as a child being scared stiff that if the pendulum stopped it meant I was gonna die
24:12It's just a certain stare out of her eyes and kisses suddenly stopped swinging
24:17Like waiting for your heart to stop
24:20And did it?
24:21Nope, and I'm still here
24:24We might as well keep this you can always switch it on when you go to the loo
24:36But it's because I'm somewhere else I say I'm somewhere else
24:43But I bet you'll both be up here soon won't you the pair of you
24:50Hello
24:55Well, that's cheered me up no end I must say
25:00You all right?
25:02Yes, I'll just care go through that tomorrow. I think are you coming up?
