Topsy walks to school with Mummy to pick Tim up at the end of the school day. She sees all her old friends including her best friend forever, Kerry. Tim snacks on apple rings and pretends they are glasses. When Kerry's mum, Dominique, arrives, Topsy says she is tired out. She doesn't feel like going all the way to the optometrist's with Tim and Mummy to get Tim's new glasses. Dominique offers to take Topsy and Kerry to the new pottery cafe and Tim and Joy can join them there later.

Tim and Mummy wait at the bus stop for the bus they need. Tim can't read the bus numbers because they are too far away. Tim shows Mummy where the optometrist's is and Mrs Kothari welcomes them. She gives Tim his new blue glasses and he loves them. Now with his glasses on, Tim can read the bus numbers and spot the one they need to take them to the cafe to meet the others.

At the cafe, Tim shows Topsy and Kerry his new glasses and makes them laugh. Then he uses his glasses to help him read the menu off the blackboard. Topsy and Kerry show Tim what they've been doing - painting pottery. Topsy paints a dog figure to be a present for Grandma on her upcoming birthday. Tim joins in. Topsy and Kerry explain to Tim about the pottery colours and firing the clay.

As the twins approach home with Mummy, they see that Dad is just leaving the house. Grandma has had to take Mossy to the vet's as she is very ill. Dad goes to see her. Show less
