and so heavens knows,

were you.

- What are we going to do?

- We have to get there in time.

- Wait!

- Help us.

Oh, lovely mee ha,

You're improving, Pat.

- What's the matter?

- Nothing.

Oh, everything.

- Travelling doesn't agree with me.

- I hope it isn't measles.

I've had measles, clever.

It must be something else.

Oh, no!

Chickenpox.

No question.

That's messed everything up.

Messed what up?

What are you on exactly?

We're supposed to be going

on holiday together

and then to the Music Festival

in Menton, middle of the month.

- I don't know what to do now.

- Nor do I.

Oh, no...

And then there were four.

Only one thing to do, I suppose.

Let's see who's left

in the morning.

Good plan.

Well, well, well...

How are you this morning?

I'm very well, how are you?

Very well indeed.

And the others?

I'm afraid its been

a night full of casualties.

I am sorry.

We could leave them the minibus and

press on, does that appeal to you?

How can you be so callous?

When do we leave?

Whenever you're ready.

Joanna! I thought

you'd gone to the doctor's.

I drove the others.

Nothing wrong with me.

Are you positive?

That feeling can be

very deceptive.

I've had chickenpox

when I was twelve.

We're not taking the bus.

We're leaving it for the others.

We'd thought we'd hitch hike.

I love hitch hiking.

I won't be in the way, will I?

Whatever gave you

that idea?

Where do you think we'll get to

by tonight? There?

There.

We can do better than that.

Can't we Jacqueline?

Can we, Jacqueline?

Jackie?

Lambs.

I guessed.

Aren't they sweet?

Isn't it a shame about Jackie?

Isn't it.

You'd have preferred if I'd been

the one who got the chickenpox.

You don't have to stay

with me, you know.

Listen, sweetheart,

let's get this straight.

I've absolutely no intention

of staying with you.

I don't know what your plans are,

but I have a schedule.

I am not on holiday.

I understand.

I'm here for the buildings.

Anything else is by the way.

I haven't a minute to waste.

My time is organised.

You're on a schedule.

But a tight schedule.

Mark, did you pick up

your passport this morning?

Mark. Mark.

If there's one thing I despise,

it's an indispensable woman.

Nobody knows the names

of the men who made it.

To make something so beautiful

and not smash your name all over it.

Would you want to?

All you hear about nowadays

is people making names.

Not things.

Sorry, did you want me

to take your picture?

No, no.

This is a three dimensional

camera.

It's meant for photographing

three dimensional subjects.

I'm three dimensional

as a matter of fact.

It's basically for buildings.

I'm not a building.

We won't have to waste a minute
