DODLY:
Mmm. (Munches) (Gasps)
FLYNN:
(Hums) Ha-ha.
DODLY:
Hi, Flynn. It's Dodly the Adventurer, ready to go camping.
FLYNN:
Oh, that's great, Dodly. And I've just about finished packing all the food. Now, there's a full container of cereal down there. Can you pass it to me, please?
DODLY:
Um… Well, um… Sure! Ahh… Hmm… Mmm. Ah! There you go.
FLYNN:
Thanks. Hang on, Dodly. This container is not full.
DODLY:
Really?
FLYNN:
Yes. I filled it up this morning, and now it's empty.
DODLY:
Oh! I remember! Dodly the Adventurer needed the cereal to give him adventurer energy.
FLYNN:
Hmm… I thought so. And now Dodly the Adventurer can just fill it again.
DODLY:
Oh. OK. Um, Adventurer Dodly is off!
FLYNN:
I think I've got some room for you too. (Laughs)
DODLY:
There, Flynn. It's not empty anymore.
FLYNN:
Well, I can see that. But is it full?
DODLY:
Oh. What do you mean by full?
FLYNN:
You know, cereal to the top of the container. As much as it can hold.
DODLY:
Yeah, it's not quite full, is it?
FLYNN:
Uh-uh.
DODLY:
Hmm. Oh, no problemo. Leave it to Dodly the Adventurer!
FLYNN:
Well, if there's room for you, there's room for you too. Come on. Well, that's certainly full. It's almost overflowing. Oh. I can't get the lid on.
DODLY:
Oh, well, do you want some taken out?
FLYNN:
Just the smallest amount will be enough. Then I'll get the lid on.
DODLY:
OK. Hmm… Oh, there, Flynn. Now you can put the lid on.
FLYNN:
Dodly, now the container is no longer full again.
DODLY:
Well, that's a shame, Flynn, because we've run out of cereal.
FLYNN:
Oh!
DODLY:
Wait! Dodly the Adventurer has an idea to save us! There. Problem solved. Hmm. Mmm. Ah.
FLYNN:
(Groans)
DODLY:
Would you like to try one, Flynn?
FLYNN:
Oh, yuck. Furry cereal? (Shudders) I think I'll be skipping breakfast. Eugh.
BOY:
My dog was very dirty, so I filled his bath with water. I didn't want to wash him, but my mum said I oughta. So I poured and poured until I filled it right up to the top. I was just about to put him in when a thought made me stop. I wondered what would happen to all the water in there. It might overflow. There would be a flood. Shall I put him in? Shall I dare? Well, over the side, the water went and covered all the floor and when I tried to soak the dog, I got washed straight out the door. If you fill your bath to the top, so the moral of my story goes, make sure you wear your floaties for when it overflows.
FLYNN:
Hmm… Hmm… Oh. Oh. Ow!
DODLY:
Oh, sorry, Flynn. I was just practising my casting. Oh, well, Dodly the Great Adventurer is really ready for camping action.
FLYNN:
Hmm.
DODLY:
Have you finished getting the food?
FLYNN:
Well, almost. I want to take one of these containers of rice. I want the one that holds the most, but I just can't decide which one it is. Hmm…
DODLY:
Hmm… It is pretty hard to tell just by looking at them.
FLYNN:
Yeah. I think I'll have to do some measurements.
DODLY:
Oh, good idea.
FLYNN:
I know. I'll see how many bowls I can fill with this container.
DODLY:
Can I help?
FLYNN:
Yes, but you have to watch me first. There. Full. Right to the top. All the bowls have to be filled like that, OK?
DODLY:
Oh, OK. I'll fill the bowls from this container.
FLYNN:
Here's some bowls, and keep going until the container's empty, OK?
DODLY:
Mm-hm.
FLYNN:
Hmm. So, this container filled three bowls and this container filled four. That means this container holds more, Dodly.
DODLY:
Great. So take that one, Flynn. Come on. Let's go! Dodly the Adventurer is waiting to catch fish. Now, where is my rod?
FLYNN:
OK. I'll just put the rice back in, OK?
DODLY:
OK. # Heigh-ho, heigh-ho It's camping we'll go # La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la Heigh-ho, heigh-ho. #
FLYNN:
Oh, Dodly! Dodly the Adventurer, get back here! Oh, no! Goodness me.
JELLY MAN:
Hey, nice container! What a snug fit! I fill it to the top. Hmm. I wonder. I want to check out the other container. Well, I'll be a wobbly jelly! I fill this container to the top as well. These different-shaped containers hold the same amount. I fill both of them. Might be very cold in here, but soon, I'll be back as Jelly Man! (Shivers) I'm cold. Anybody out there? Hello? Anybody? Can I get out, please?
FLYNN:
(Hums happily) Ah, a nice relaxing cup of tea in the bush. Hmm… (Sighs)
DODLY:
Look, Flynn.
FLYNN:
What have you got there, Adventurer Dodly?
DODLY:
Well, I was just down by the river, wrestling crocodiles, and I found these stones and I'm sure that they have silver and gold and rubies in them. I'm gonna take them home.
FLYNN:
Well, it's a good idea, Dodly, but find something else to put 'em in.
DODLY:
No, I'll just use this hat.
FLYNN:
No, I don't think so.
DODLY:
Why?
FLYNN:
Well, it's mine.
DODLY:
Oh.
FLYNN:
Alright. Hang on. Here. This might be of help to you.
DODLY:
Oh. Will it hold all my stones, do you think, Flynn? Well, it's hard to tell if it'll hold as much as the hat. I guess you'll just have to pour it in and see. Oh. OK. There.
FLYNN:
So which one holds more — my hat or the container?
DODLY:
Hmm, well, I filled the container, but there's still some more stones left in the hat, which means that the hat holds more.
FLYNN:
You're right.
DODLY:
Please can I take them in the hat?
FLYNN:
Sorry. I need to protect my fur from the sun.
DODLY:
Oh, OK. Well, I might just see if I can find a bigger container.
FLYNN:
Ah. Just as well I got my hat back. What the…? Aah! Dodly! Oh!
GIRL:
I think today I'll go for a fly. It's amazing the things you can see from the sky. Mmm. Honey. One. Two. Two cups fill my jar just nicely. I think I'd like another two cups of honey for Granddad. He loves honey. Hmm. I need another jar. I wonder if THIS jar holds two cups. One. Two. It holds more than two cups. I'll try another. Three. It holds three cups. Two cups of honey in that one and three cups in that one. That makes two, three, four, five — five cups altogether. Buzz. I love honey.
FLYNN:
(Yawns) A relaxing holiday in the bush. Time for a nap before dinner. (Laughs) (Yawns)
DODLY:
I wonder where Flynn is. He must have gone for a walk. Oh, well. Dodly the Adventurer will have to make his own food. Now, this recipe for damper says that I'd need water and butter. Hmm… Hmm… Yep, got heaps of them. Now, what else do I need? Six cups of flour. Hmm… Six cups of flour? Gosh, that seems like a lot. Hmm… Well, I wonder if this bag actually holds six cups of flour. I should check.
FLYNN:
(Snores)
DODLY:
Oh, that's a funny noise. Must be a bush pig. (Chuckles) OK, let's have a look. Now, I need six cups of flour. Hmm… OK, well, that's one cup. What'll I do with it? Um… Oh. There. So, that's two cups. Hmm… Three. Four. (Giggles) Five. Six. (Laughs) And one more. That's seven. Hmm… Now, it holds seven cups of flour, and I only need six, so I've got enough. Mmm! Oh, now I need to put this flour back again. Oh.
FLYNN:
(Yawns)
DODLY:
There.
FLYNN:
(Yawns)
DODLY:
Oh! Oh, no! A flour monster!
FLYNN:
(Yawns, groans)
DODLY:
Oh, Flynn!
FLYNN:
It's snowing!
DODLY:
Flynn, don't move! That's my flour for the damper. (Giggles)
FLYNN:
Oh, no. I think I'm going to sneeze. Ah… ah… ah… ah-CHOO!
DODLY:
(Laughs)
FLYNN:
(Groans) Dodly, why don't we just have toast?
DODLY:
Oh! Sure you don't want me to wrestle a wild animal?
FLYNN:
No, thanks, Dodly. Just toast. Ah… ah… ah… ah-CHOO! Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear. Oh.
