Today’s recording is Charlie and Lola – Welcome to Lolaland. Charlie and Marv are doing their Spanish homework.
Homework is very advanced these days. They have tapes and everything. We had language labs when I was at school, but I think we used them maybe twice in all the time I was doing French. I felt cheated, as they had buttons and headphones and everything.
Lola wants to go to Spainland but Charlie tells her she needs a passport. So she makes her own.
But then Lola decides a better place to go would be Lolaland. She and Soren Lorenson go on a plane.
The island has a familiar shape
It’s a bit of a mishmash. I like the bourbon Stonehenge.
Charlie and Marv want the globe back to finish their homework. But to enter Lolaland they need passports and sunglasses.
And they have to do a boingy, springy dance.
