- 0:10Noddy was having a very troublesome morning.
- 0:15He was supposed to make Mr Tubby Bear to the railway station.
- 0:21But first of all, Mr Tubby had to push Noddy's little car.
- 0:31Then it wheezed and spluttered all the way to the station so that Mr. Tubby missed his train.
- 0:41Dear me, said Mr. Tubby unhappily.
- 0:46I shan't pay you your usual sixpence, Noddy you know.
- 0:55This is your fault, car, shouted Noddy. Park, park, car, coughed his car.
- 1:02Noddy gave Mrs. Pink, er, Pink Cat a lift into Toy Town, but his car coughed
- 1:09and choked until it finally ran out of control.
- 1:14Mrs. Pink Cat looked very cross indeed.
- 1:20Noddy's poor car just whimpered miserably.
- 1:24Luckily, Mr Sparks was driving by and he stopped to help Dear Mr Sparks,
- 1:33said Mrs Pinker I'm such in a hurry, can you take me into town, Noddy?
- 1:40I shall pay your fare into Mr Sparks Noddy was very upset I am cross with you, he shouted at his car,
- 1:52That's the second fare.
- 1:57You've made me lose today. Park, park, moaned the car sadly.
- 2:04Nottie's a car juggard.
- 2:09And Noddy's car juggled slowly back into town.
- 2:14On the way back, he heard a loud popping noise, then his car stopped completely.
- 2:23Noddy got out to see what was wrong. Now you've got a puncture. Why?
- 2:32Can't you look where you're going, he said crossly.
- 2:35The car you've caused me nothing but trouble today Park Park hooted the little
- 2:43car and it drove on its own feeling very,
- 2:48upset No come back cried Noddy,
- 2:53Please come back But Noddy's little car didn't stop Noddy looked all over,
- 3:02Toyland for his car but he couldn't find it anywhere he got back home.
- 3:09It was nearly dark by the time he got back home.
- 3:14Where can my car be? wondered Noddy sadly.
- 3:21It's been gone for ages. Where would you go if you were upset? asked Mr Tubby.
- 3:28I'd probably go see Big Ears, replied Noddy.
- 3:33Then perhaps that's where your car's gone, suggested Mr Tubby.
- 3:40That's a good idea, cried Noddy hopefully.
- 3:44Hopefully he jumped up and started to run to Big Ears' house. Thank you, Mr Tubby.
- 3:53Noddy ran all the way to Toadstool house to find Big Ears.
- 4:01Something terrible has happened, said Noddy.
- 4:05My car has run away and it was all my fault.
- 4:10I know, said Big Ears. Your car told me. Is it here? asked Noddy.
- 4:15I hoped it would be. It's over there, replied Big Ears. You upset it a lot, you know.
- 4:22You must be kind to your car and find out what's wrong with it.
- 4:27Take it to see Mr. Sparks tomorrow.
- 4:31The next day, Noddy took me and took his little car to Mr. Sparks' garage.
- 4:40Within half an hour, Mr. Sparks had made it feel much better.
- 4:49I've changed the oil in your car's engine and it'd be happier, said Mr. Sparks.
- 4:58That was all it needed It will drive much more smoothly now Thank you,
- 5:04Mr Sparks Now everything is back to normal And,
- 5:11my car and I are happy again,
- 5:17And cried Noddy From now on, I'll change its oil every year No,
- 5:22twice a year He laughed part part and who did the little kind,
- 5:29delight part part part the end and thank you for listening.
