to other matters,

to sound a note of warning.

And still they come.

I was just talking, you might be

interested to hear, about time.

I was going to say that

we all understood that lateness

was a discourtesy to others.

But I'm beginning to wonder.

You're beginning to wonder too,

are you?

So perhaps the rest of us could

turn round and face the front,

and we'll all wonder together.

Right, thank you.

Because I'm beginning to wonder

if I'd be the only person in the world

who'd be slightly surprised

if the tide came wandering in

half an hour after the lesson

had started,

slammed all the doors,

and stood there gazing

round the room

trying to find some chums

to sit next to

while the rest of us

patiently wait to get on

with the day's events.

Perhaps I sound a little old fashioned,

but imagine a spacecraft

that was endlessly interrupted by

latecomers and flapping doors.

It might just possibly go

completely mad!

It might just possibly

lift off the launch pad and go

streaming off into the depths

of the universe.

And never been seen again until

the end of time.

Right. Hymn 122:

"He Who Would Valiant Be".

Mr Stimpson!

Excuse me, sir.

Mr Stimpson? Mr Stimpson?

Brian? Brian, stay there.

- Mr Stimpson?

- Laura! Laura!

Excuse me.

Are you Mr Brian Stimpson of...

I want to have a word with my husband.

This is my lovely day,

this is the day I will remember,

the day I'm dying.

They can't take this away,

it will be always mine,

the sun and the wine,

the seabirds flying...

Where are they going now?

Both seen driving away, silver Porsche

Furthermore, there are also

various charges relating to the

theft of certain items of gents' clothing

including an ecclesiastical vestment,

and of a wallet containing

approximately 1,230 in cash.

Do you wish to say anything? You're not

obliged to unless you wish to do so.

But whatever you say will be taken down

in writing and may be given in evidence.

Go right, right.

- Right?

- Eh? No, no left. Left!

My lovely day, my lovely day.
