Speaker 1: the supercast link in the show notes. Anyway, here's a
00:00:25
Speaker 1: preview of this very special episode. It was a glorious,
00:00:36
Speaker 1: sunshiny summer is on its way sort of day in
00:00:40
Speaker 1: the little village of Lower Starry Skies. Everyone had opened
00:00:44
Speaker 1: their doors and windows to let the sunlight pour into
00:00:47
Speaker 1: their homes. In the gardens, white and pink blossoms decorated
00:00:52
Speaker 1: the trees and hedgerows, and birds stood on branches and
00:00:56
Speaker 1: sang for all they were worth, Mellow Yeah Hello. Aunt
00:01:00
Speaker 1: Tilly's bright sunshine Yellow Van loved the sun as much
00:01:04
Speaker 1: as anyone. It made her chromes sparkle, and she particularly
00:01:09
Speaker 1: loved it when creatures came by to admire themselves in
00:01:13
Speaker 1: her gleaming hubcaps. Her doors were open too, and Bow
00:01:19
Speaker 1: was inside. Aunt Tilly had promised to take him into
00:01:23
Speaker 1: town to the Dimple Dumpling Cafe, but only if he
00:01:27
Speaker 1: gave Mellow Yellow a proper clean first, he'd asked the
00:01:32
Speaker 1: sloth on the roof if he could help, but the
00:01:34
Speaker 1: sloth said no, His only job was to be a
00:01:39
Speaker 1: windscreen wiper when needed, and if Bo didn't mind, he
00:01:43
Speaker 1: would rather lie on the roof and have a good snooze.
00:01:47
Speaker 1: He'd asked the little field mouse who lived in a
00:01:49
Speaker 1: sock between the books on the shelf, but the mouse
00:01:52
Speaker 1: had done a very good impression of carrying on snoring
00:01:56
Speaker 1: and pretended not to hear, so Bo and realized it
00:02:02
Speaker 1: really was down to him. He was armed with paper
00:02:06
Speaker 1: towels and lots of different bottles of stuff that smelled
00:02:10
Speaker 1: either amazing or alarming, and a dustpan and brush, and
00:02:15
Speaker 1: he hummed to himself as he rearranged the dirt in
00:02:19
Speaker 1: the back of Mellow Yellow. The minutes and the hours
00:02:23
Speaker 1: ticked slowly by, and Bo realized that if he didn't
00:02:28
Speaker 1: get some help, then he'd never be finished before the
00:02:31
Speaker 1: Dimple Dumpling closed for the day. He loved going to
00:02:36
Speaker 1: the cafe, even when he didn't get to hear a story.
00:02:41
Speaker 1: Uma had created such an enchanting little place that everyone
00:02:45
Speaker 1: felt instantly at home there. Bo made a point of
00:02:50
Speaker 1: always saying hello to the China elephant who stood on
00:02:53
Speaker 1: the counter, just in case the elephant could really hear.
00:02:58
Speaker 1: And by now he had sat on every single seat
00:03:01
Speaker 1: in the cafe, including the beautiful red couch with the
00:03:06
Speaker 1: gold tassels that sat pride of place in the window.
00:03:12
Speaker 1: He started thinking about which chair he would choose today,
00:03:17
Speaker 1: perhaps the green velvet one in the back next to
00:03:20
Speaker 1: the wall of plants, or maybe the one covered in
00:03:24
Speaker 1: tiny silver stars that stood nearest to the counter, And
00:03:29
Speaker 1: then realized he was all distracted again and time was
00:03:32
Speaker 1: running out. Bo sank onto his heels and sighed. He
00:03:38
Speaker 1: closed his eyes and spread out his hands and said,
00:03:42
Speaker 1: to nobody in particular, won't anyone help me clean mellow yellow?
00:03:50
Speaker 1: And nobody could have been more surprised than Bo when
00:03:53
Speaker 1: he opened his eyes and there in front of him
00:03:57
Speaker 1: stood a glorious, bright red, swirly whirly tailed bird of paradise.
