Peter Waterbury : I'm very sorry I haven't got tuppence to give you like father does.
Albert Perks : Hey just stop that please, I wasn't thinking about no tuppence. I just came to say sorry your mama wasn't so well and to ask how she finds herself this evening. And I brought you some sweet briar, very sweet. Tuppence indeed!

Phyllis Waterbury : It's like we're in a besieged castle, the arrows of the foe striking against the battlements.
Peter Waterbury : No, it's more like a great big garden squirt.
Phyllis Waterbury : You're a great big garden squirt.
Peter Waterbury : Thank you.

Phyllis Waterbury : Why don't we ask the next train to take our love to Daddy?
Peter Waterbury : Trains don't carry people's love, they'd be above that.
Phyllis Waterbury : Yes, they do if you tame them first. I wonder why Daddy hasn't written to us.
Bobbie Waterbury : Mummy says he's too busy. He'll write soon, she says.
Phyllis Waterbury : Well, why don't we wave anyway? Three waves won't matter. We won't miss them.
[so start waving]
