Come along, children.
:43:01
You may be able to fool my father,
:43:04
but I've enough proof to send you to prison.
:43:07
For the rest of your lives.
:43:19
Phew.
:43:20
What a day it's been.
:43:22
- It could've been worse.
- Worse?

:43:25
How? You keep getting us into trouble.
:43:27
Stop picking on me.
:43:29
Besides, it didn't take long
to get you behind the wheel.

:43:32
Why do you have to be such a pain?
:43:34
Why do you have to boss everyone about?
:43:36
You think you're grown-up but you're not.
:43:38
Stop it! Don't fight.
:43:40
Please.
:43:43
I was put in charge.
:43:45
- It doesn't mean I have to listen to you.
- Yes, it does!

:43:48
- No, it doesn't!
- Yes, it does!

:43:50
You're not Dad.
:43:53
Hello?
:43:55
Well, well, well, well, well now.
:43:57
What's all this commotion?
:43:59
So many sad faces.
:44:02
Well, I may have something
that might cheer you up.

:44:05
A little bit of magic.
:44:07
No more magic, please.
:44:09
Abra Chihuahua!
:44:13
Let me see. Let me see.
:44:15
- It's addressed to all of us!
- I recognise the writing. It's Dad's.

:44:19
Open it, Cyril. Go on, you have to.
:44:21
In all the kerfuffle, I almost forgot.
:44:25
"My darling children,
:44:27
I hope you are all happy, healthy,
and up to plenty of mischief

:44:30
and soaking up all the joys of the country. "
:44:33
He's got the soaking part right.
:44:35
Sh.
:44:35
"Jane, I hope you are enjoying your violin.
:44:39
However hard it is to learn now,
:44:40
it's something you'll be glad of one day.
:44:44
Anthea, I'm thoroughly enjoying
the novel you hid in my luggage.

:44:48
The Plummeting Pilot Of Poslewait.
:44:50
All the boys in the squadron
are lining up to borrow it.

:44:53
And, Robert...
:44:55
the Sopwith's a bit tricky in the air,
but she's a beauty.

:44:58
I wish I could fly over to see you.
