This is Uncle Ted in front of the house. (she hand over the photo and the young lady tears it up) This is Uncle Ted at the back of the house. (she hand over the photo and the young lady tears it up) And this is Uncle Ted at the side of the house. (she hand over the photo and the young lady tears it up) This is Uncle Ted back in front of the house, but you can see the side of the house. (she hand over the photo and the young lady tears it up) And this is Uncle Ted even nearer the side of the house, but you can still see the front. (she hand over the photo and the young lady tears it up) This is the back of the house, with Uncle Ted coming round the side to the front. (she hand over the photo and the young lady tears it up) And the is the Spanish Inquisition hiding behind the coal shed. ---

Who shall declare this good, that ill When good and ill so intertwine But to fulfil the vast design of an omniscient will. When seeming again but turns to loss When earthly treasure proves but dross And what seems lost but turns again To high eternal gain. ---

Our Galaxy itself contains a hundred-billion stars, it’s a hundred thousand light years side to side It bulges in the middle, 16,000 light years thick, but out by us, it’s just 3,000 light years wide We’re 30,000 light years from Galactic Central Point, we go round every 200 million years And our Galaxy is only one of millions of billions in the amazing and expanding universe! The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding in all of the directions it can whizz As fast as it can go, the speed of light, you know, 12 million miles a minute and that’s the fastest speed there is So remember when you’re feeling very small and insecure, how amazingly unlikely is your birth And pray that there’s intelligent life somewhere up in space, 'cause there’s bugger all down here on Earth! ---
