What have you been up to, you little devil?

Little devil, that's what you are.

Wasn't me. It was him.

I reckon it was about six to four

on him coming home in a sack.

- Came down on my funny bone.

- Went right up in the air, I did.

So will your father

when he hears about this.

All I can say is

some people are born lucky.

- Oh!

- Arthur!

- Dad, where are you?

- Where is he gone?

- Somebody do something!

- Hold on!

- Here's a rope!

- Mr Pemberton!

Mr Pemberton! Are you all right?

Are you all right, Mr Pemberton?

Oh, I'm having a grand time.

Arthur!

Don't worry, we're getting him up.

Right!

Heave!

Take it easy!

Stick to it, Dad! You'll make it!

Hold tight, dear.

You all right?

- Hey, what happened?

- Thank you, boys.

I'm all right. Don't worry, don't fuss.

I'm all right, I tell you.

- You have hurt yourself.

- No, I haven't.

- Just like old times, eh?

- Hello, Ted. Yeah, just like.

You turn up when it's all over.

Now, come on. Which of you was it?

Come on. Who was it?

- Which of you was it?

- Don't lie!

- It's always that kid of yours.

- He never touched that wheel.

- Steady, steady.

- Well, sit still, then.

" - Shirley!

OK, I'll go.

- That'll do, that'll do.

- No, it won't. Stay where you are.

Playing about like a schoolboy.

I don't know why you ever wanted

to go down the blessed hole.

I didn't want to go down the hole.

I fell down.

Well, you shouldn't have gone so close.

- Who was it?

- Frank with the ice.

- You didn't go to the door like that?

- Yes, of course.

It's the only sensible kind of thing

to wear in this kind of weather.

Downright indecent, I call it.

Whatever must that man have thought?

Exactly the same as all the other men

thought last year at Bournemouth.

- I thought I was seeing things again.

- Seeing things?

Yes, when all that stuff fell on my

head, I fancied I saw a kind of cave

with a load of treasure in it.

- Treasure?

- Yes, goblets, jewels, gold coins and...

Look out, look out.

It's all getting down my neck.

Did you say gold coins?

Oh, that's one of those kids

worked off a dud on you.

It is gold, isn't it?

Come on. I'll fetch a ladder.

You grab a couple of torches.

Arthur, don't be daft. Come back. Shirley!

Arthur, your supper's just on ready!

Now, I wonder where that was.

Oi.

All right, all right. Come on, come on.

Shine the light here, will you?

Keep your light there.

There.

Cor! Someone's been

saving up for a rainy day.
