Boys and girls come out to play,
The moon doth shine as bright as day
There is a different poem each day this week at the beginning of Play School and this is part of Thursday's poem after which Rick plays 'Noughts and Crosses' and 'Hopscotch'. On Friday after the poem 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star' Carol uses lights and a piece of cardboard to make a picture of the sky at night.
Today's story is called 'The Happy Owls' by Celestino Piatti

by Paul Wheeler
[Starring] Donald Pickering as Roger, Jeremy Longhurst as Fred, Patrick Kavanagh as Colin, Patricia Fuller as Sam

When Fred and Roger stop at a remote pub for a quick drink they get far more than they bargain for. Although there is a perfectly logical explanation for the extraordinary happenings that they have wished upon them, it certainly doesn't seem quite like that at the time.
