[Music]

la

goodness me I needed that actually

here's something you don't see very

often a heatwave in this country

unbelievable look at that windows are

open the doors are wide open sting a

sweeper outside I think it's safe to say

that summer has finally arrived morning

Matthew oh hello there Sue I say do you

know where that Christmas wrapping paper

is you know the stuff with the little

Santa on it um yes it's in the cupboard

underneath the stairs oh right thank you

but why do you want Christmas wrapping

in the middle of summertime she's

disappeared oh here is s sweep hello

there boys well what do you think is

this uh this warm enough for you it's

boiling yeah can you have your fruit

drink of course you can go on enjoy them

I enjoyed mine I really did uh don't

drink it too quickly though sweet will

you oh s is certainly enjoying his

atness me you made short work of that

and you sweet did you enjoy that yes you

did Sue there's a nice cool refreshing

fruit drink there for you oh sorry

Matthew I'm much too busy for such

things give it to one of the boys and

can you tell me where the sticky tape is

please uh yes it's in the drawer go and

get it for her please sweep will you go

and get it for her what C what's she up

to I'm just about to ask her what are

you up to then sue oh nosy Parker that

is for me to know mhm and you to find

out yes something very strange going on

here what sweet

what so dropped something on the floor

what is

it this what's this that's one of those

little gift things isn't it where hang

on it says with love to suti from

Sue it's not your birthday is it suti

well this is very strange it's got a

little Santa Claus on the front with

love to suti from Sue how very peculiar

this requires some further investigation

what sweet

what can you have that drink yes go on

you come with me go on enjoy your drink

sweet there we are finished that's with

love to Matthew from Sue this one is

love to sweep from Sue love to little

cousin scampy from Sue and oh dear oh

the label's missing I must have dropped

it uh yes you have dropped one at your

suit it's down in the kitchen oh Matthew

well where is it now what Su is bringing

it up oh it's here there he is give it

to us suti thank you suti actually it's

yours yes we know that Sue one thing we

would all like to know though is uh

what's going on exactly simple Matthew

Christmas presents Christmas presents

Pur Su it's the middle of July I know

but when you lck are all flogging around

the shops to the rush and the crush I'll

be at home watching telly but right now

since I finished my Christmas shopping

and my Christmas rapping I'm going off

to see my friend next door for the day

so bye well bye then sue bye bye oh and

uh Merry

Christmas she's quite right you know I

mean I hate trudging around shops at the

last minute Sue's idea is by far the

best get all the Christmas shopping done

as soon soon as possible what and the

Christmas wrapping oh yes the sooner you

can get that out of the way the better

which is why we're going to go downtown

this afternoon and we're going to do all

of our Christmas shopping so got any

thoughts as to what you might buy so

what are you going to buy you're going

to buy a dress for Sue a dress wow

that's fantastic what about you

sweet dresses don't suit you no I didn't

mean that what are you going to buy

sweet hm

a watch for Sue

really and a radio for

suti and some cufflinks for me yeah gold

gold cufflinks what you're going to buy

me some Diamond cufflinks no no no hang

on Vice hang on that you can only buy

what you can afford you better have a

look in your money boxes and see how

much money you got go bring them up here

go on S bring you out golden diamond C

links let me give you a hand with tip

yours out sweet let's have a look and

see what You' got uh you're rich well I

wouldn't actually count on that how much

is it how much is

there3 and one little one I've got some

bad news for you sweet these aren't

pounds these are in fact patas this is

Spanish money you can't spend that not

in this country but you can spend that

little one there see how much is it

that's a one

p yes I'm afraid so that's all you got

just one p let's see how much su's got

shall we tipping up oh this is looking

quite helpful let's have a look these

are pound coins one two three four 5

coins and 110 P that means that you are

rich I wouldn't Bank on that either

because I got a couple of notes in my

pocket which you wrote ages ago when you

borrowed money off me uh this says I owe

Matthew £2 signed suti so uh I'll take

those two pounds and this one

says I owe Matthew £3 signed suti so uh

I'll take these three man you have got

that left 10 P but come on stand up for

goodness sake I'm afraid this does mean

though that be no radios there be no

dresses and there will be no cufflinks

gold or

Diamond what are we going to do well

don't don't get sad about it sweep it

doesn't matter I mean look when you're

giving people presents it really doesn't

matter how much you spend because it's

the thought that counts look what we'll

do is this why don't we make some

Christmas presents and then you could

get them all wrapped up and then you'd

be all done yeah is that a good idea

it's a great idea but come on better get

a move on after all it's only 5 months

till Christmas come

on it's

hot gold cufflinks Diamond cufflinks

they are sweet they mean well you know

as a matter of fact they've already

given me the best Christmas present I

could ever wish for 20 minutes worth of

peace and

quiet I wonder how they're getting on I

wonder if they decided yet what they're

going to

[Music]

make M that's a very impressive statue

isn't it just look at the detail so

delicate oh don't get the wrong idea

suti hasn't made this have you suti no

he's going to try and copy it aren't you

well he certainly got plenty of modeling

clay haven't you so the first thing to

do is to soften the modeling clay until

it's soft enough to work with make a

start

suti H I think we'll leave him to it for

a while I wonder what sweeps to decided

to

make oh sweeps decided to do a painting

that will make a lovely Christmas prei

let's see how you're getting on

sweep oh H maybe painting people is a

bit hard see if you can think of

something easier to paint

sweet it's a hard life isn't

it well for some people it is for others

life is just one big

yawn let's go and see how suti is

getting

[Music]

on oh dear when I said think of

something else to paint I didn't

mean oh Deary

[Music]

me

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

this is meant to be a copy of that

you're kidding well what's going wrong

all day and since I'm dressed like this

here's something special for tea watch

watch hey Christmas pudding you're right

Sue well there's a pudding for Christmas

and here's a thought for Christmas you

can buy me a watch or a diamond ring if

you don't have to think then it won't

mean a thing it's the

thought that

counts not

the

amount I'm talking to you and it's

perfectly true you can buy me a car or

the Albert PA if you don't have to think

it means nothing at all it's the

thought that

counts

not the

amount I'm talking to you and it's

perfectly true give me a present you

thought out about something that's taken

some

time it's funny but money doesn't mean a

lot cheap and cheerful is

fine we hope you've all had a good time

we'll see you again soon oh and by the

way merry Christmas everybody come on

pull a cr*cker here we go give me

something small it doesn't matter at all

some something really cheap something

nice to keep it's the

thought that

counts

not the

amount I'm talking to you and it's

perfectly true la la la la la la la la

la la la la la la la la la la la la la

la la la it's the

thought that counts

[Music]

not the

amount I'm talking to you and it's

perfectly true every time
