Bert : Now this im-posin' edifice what first meets the eye is the 'ome of Admiral Boom, late of His Majesty's Navy. Likes his house ship-shape, he does. Shipe-shape and Bristol fashion at all times!
[the Admiral blows his whistle]
Admiral Boom : Time gun ready?
Mr. Binnacle : Ready and charged, sir.
Admiral Boom : Three minutes and six seconds.
Mr. Binnacle : Aye, aye, sir.
Bert : What he's famous for is punctuality. The whole world takes its time from Greenwich, but Greenwich, they say, takes its time from Admiral Boom.
[to Admiral Boom]
Bert : Wotcher, Admiral!
Admiral Boom : Good afternoon to you, young man. Where are you bound?
Bert : Number 17. Got some parties 'ere in town what wants to see it.
Admiral Boom : [to Binnacle] Enter that in the log.
Mr. Binnacle : Aye, aye, sir.
Admiral Boom : A word of advice, young man: storm signals are up at number 17. Bit of heavy weather brewing there.
Bert : Thanks, sir. Keep an eye skinned.
[continues walking]
Bert : Here we are, 17 Cherry Tree Lane, home of George Banks Esquire.
[screaming and shouting is heard from the house]
Bert : 'Ello, 'ello, 'ello! Admiral's right: heavy weather brewin' at number 17 and no mistake.
