"Once an old grey donkey Eeyore," "Who always had terrible luck, (especially on Fridays) stood by the side of the lake and contemplated strangeness of life:" " Pathetic sight." "Harrowing." "A nightmare!" "Well, as I thought." "No better from THIS side." "But why?" "Wherefore?" "Inasmuch as which?" "And what conclusion should be drawn from this?" "If I scratch the back of my head, it's okay, There is only sawdust in it, yeah, yeah, yey!" "But although there's only sawdust, All these shouties  those screamies, I compose them rather nicely on so ...s" " Good morning, Eeyore!" " Good morning, Winnie-Pooh." "If it IS a good morning..." "Which I personally doubt." " And how are you?" " Not very how..." "I don't seem to to have felt at all HOW for a long time." " Why, what's the matter?" " Nothing, Pooh Bear, nothing." "We can't all, and some of us don't." "That's all there is to it." " Can't all what?" " Gaiety." "Song-and-dance: "It's okay, yeah, yeah, yey!"" "And... the like..." " Why, what's happened to your tail?" " What HAS happened to it?" " It isn't there!" " Are you sure?" " Well, either a tail IS there or it isn't there." "You cannot make a mistake about it." " Then what is there?" " Nothing." " This can't be." "I believe you are right." " You must have left it somewhere." " Somebody must have taken it." "How Like Them." "One could expect this." "On such a Day..." " What kind of day is it?" " Friday." "It's my birthday." " Today?" " But who cares..." "Nobody takes notice..." " A BIRTHDAY?" "... Noone is interested in it..." " Is it really your birthday?" " Of course it is." "Can't you see?" "Look at the birthday cake." "Candles and pink sugar..." "And the rest..." "Can't you see them?" " No." " Neither can I." "That's a joke." "Ha-ha!" "But I am not complaining." "Don't pay attention to me, Pooh-the-Bear-Cub." "It's enough for me alone to be so miserable on my own birthday." "And if everyone else is miserable..." " Stay here." "Don't go anywhere." "I'll be back at once." "At once!" "The sign reads: "WINNIE-POOH"" " Hallo, Winnie!" " Hallo, Piglet!" " What are you trying to do?" " I was trying to ring the doorbell, I just came round - ..." " Let me do it for you." "Step aside." "Bad news, Piglet." "Eeyore has lost his tail." " Lost what?" " His Tail." "And it happens to be his Birthday." "Why they're not opening?" "(" " Pooh!" ")" "His birthday..." "Well, I never!" "No tail, and no presents... (" " Pooh!" ")" "What a long time whoever lives here is answering this door!" " But Pooh, it's your own house!" " Ah!" "So it is." "Well, let's go in." " Somewhere here, I think..." "No, not that..." "Where did I..." "No, no, not that..." "I have somewhere here..." "Where did I..." "Ow-ow-ow..." "Here!" "..." "I'm giving him a pot of honey." "This will cheer him up." " Pooh, couldn't I give it too?" "From both of us?" " No, that would not be a good plan." " All right..." "Then, I'll give him a Balloon." "I've got the green one left from the party, remember?" " Balloon?" "That IS a very good idea." "Nobody can be uncheered with a baloon." "Hurry, bring it quickly." " Aha." "Honey's a better, undoubtedly, gift Even a donkey will 'get it', I think." "Even a little – One teaspoon you've got - Is already good," "But much better – 'WHOLE POT" "Honey is very intricate stuff, Anything either exists or it's not." "But honey's a mystery..." "What I don't get:" "One instant it's there (yumm!" ") Then it's not, I can bet!" "M-m... completely..." "M-m-m... enough..." "M-m... for now..." "M-m-m... half a pot..." "The sign reads: "TRESPASSERS W"" "Now let me see..." "Where was I going?" "Ah, yes..." "Here's an empty pot Where honey never got" "This one will-not-go-anywhere." "And for that reason empty pot Is valued higher (and a lot!" ")" "At birthday parties out there!" "The end of disappointment and jokes again are funny, At once the weather is becoming sunny," "When you or he or someone else, When you or he or someone else" "(not Me, though!" ")" "Are given on their Birthday A pot without HUNNY!" "Signs read:" ""PLES RING IF AN RNSER IS REQIRD", "PLEZ CNOKE IF AN RNSR IS NOT REQID"" "Owl!" "Open up!" "A bear has come." "Ah!" "Hallo, Winnie-Pooh!" "How are things?" " Terrible and Sad." "Eeyore donkey has lost his tail." " Lost his tail?" "Ha-ha-ha-ha..." "So what?" " He's Moping about it." "For it happens to be his Birthday!" " You're saying if the tail had disappeared on any other day, nobody would notice?" "But now..." " Owl." "We need to cheer him up somehow." " And what have you, have you thought of something?" " Yes." "I'm giving him a Useful Pot." " Is this it?" " Yes, and I wanted to ask you..." " Hmm..." "It's a nice pot..." "Somebody has been keeping honey in it." " You can keep ANYTHING in it." "It's Very Useful like that." "And I wanted to ask you..." " To give it to Eeyore?" " Yes..." "But to..." " To give it from both of us?" " No." "Would you write 'A Happy Birthday from Pooh' on it?" " And that's all?" " What else can it be?" " You ought to write: "I wish you a Happy Birthday, and Many happy returns of the day!"" " Amazing." "Write it like this." "But also add: "Pooh"." " Can't you write yourself?" " Generally I can." "But my..." "My spelling is Wobbly." "It's good spelling but it Wobbles." " No." "All this will not fit here." "The pot is too small." "You know what, Pooh?" "Just say it, in words." " I cannot, in words." "You see, I have sawdust in my head." "Long words only upset me." " Very well, let me do it." "Hi... py... papy..." "Piglet was in a terrible rush." "He wanted to be the first to give a present to the donkey." "Well, as if he himself remembered the birthday without any reminders." "He was so lost in day-dreams about how pleased Eeyore would be, he didn't look where he was going..." " I wonder what that bang was?" "I couldn't have made such a noise just falling down." "And where's my balloon, I wonder?" "And what's that small piece of damp rag doing..." "Oh, dear!" "Mama!" "Mommy...." " Well, see here: hipy papy..." "bthuthdth thuthda... bthuthdy..." " Owl, where did you get it?" " What?" "Oh, this..." "Handsome bell-rope, isn't it?" "But please don't distract me." " It reminds me of something..." " So." "Hap.. py..." " I did see it somewhere else..." "... birth..." "..." "I just can't think where." " In the forest." "I saw it hanging over a bush." " Over a bush." " Yes, so what?" " Oh, please." "Continue on." " So." "Shh!" "..." "Birthday..." "Mon... money..." "MANY..." " What were you saying?" " Many." " No, you were saying something about the bush." " Well yes, I... just came... across it in the Forest.." "...And suddenly I saw ... the bell-rope hanging there." " Over the bush?" " Yes." "Over the bush." "What's it's name... "THISTLE"." " God bless." " So, what's next?" "You sneezed just as you were going to tell me." " I didn't sneeze." " Yes, you did, Owl." "I'm sorry for interrupting you." " Exuse me, Pooh, I didn't." "You can't, indeed, sneeze without knowing it." " Well, you can't know it without something having been sneezed." " What I said was..." " Sorry, you haven't finished telling me about the bell-rope." " Yes, but... well..." "The bell-rope, well..." "I thought at first..." "I thought: "What if somebody lives there?" So I rang it." "But nobody (at all) answered me from within the THISTLE bush." " Here." "You're doing it again." "God bless." " I rang again and tried to SEE THROUGH it." " Blessings." "And then?" " I PURSUED the matter and rang again!" " Bless you." " And then I rang it again very loudly and it came OFF.. oh..." "Aaachoo!" "What's happedidg?" "It... ca-ca-cabe off..." " Came off." "I've got it." " Achoo!" "Ooh." "And as I thought dobody..." "Choo, ah!" "Dobody seebed to wadt it..." "I took it hobe." " Achoo." " Owl!" "Somebody DID want it." " Wadt it?" "I wodder, who was it who wadted it?" " My dear friend Eeyore." "He was fond of it." "He was attached to it." " Achoo." " If you give this bell-rope to Eeyore on his Birthday, he will be very happy!" " Achoo." " God bless." " Good morning, Eeyore." " Good morning, Little Piglet." "If it is good." "Which I doubt." "Not that it matters." " Many happy returns of the day." " What have you just... say that again" " Many hap..." " Wait a moment." "It's so I can hear better." " Manny happy returns of the day." " Meaning me?" " Of course, Eeyore." " My birthday?" " I've brought... you a present." " A present for Me?" "Meaning me going on having a real birthday?" " Yes, but..." " Thank you, Piglet." "You are a real friend, not like Some." "What kind of a present?" "Bah..." "A balloon." "My balloon?" "..." "It's such a big... beautiful?" "..." " Well, yes." "But I'm afraid... when I was running," " They also inflate it..." " I wanted... to bring it to you sooner, and I fell!" " Dear, dear, how unlucky." "You didn't hurt yourself, I hope?" " No, but I-I-oh..." "Well, I burst it." " My balloon?" " Yes, here it is." "With many happy returns..." " Is this it?" "My present?" "Thank you, Piglet." "You don't mind me asking, but what colour was it, when it WAS a balloon?" " Green." " My favourite colour..." " How big was it?" " About as big as me." " I just wondered..." "About as big as Piglet." "My favourite size!" "I wish you a Happy Birthday, and Many happy returns of the day!" "Pooh." " Thank you, I'm having them." " I've brought you a little present." "It says..." " I already have one "little present"." " It's a Useful Present." "It's for putting things in..." "Anything you wish can go into that pot." " Why!" "I believe my Balloon will just go into that Pot!" " Oh, no, Baloons are much too big to go into Pots." " It's other balloons that won't go into it." "And mine will." "Look, Piglet!" " So it does!" "It goes out." "Why, it goes in." " It goes in!" " It comes out." "It goes in." "And it wonderfully goes out." " It goes in and out like anything." "Ha-ha." "How well, that I thought of giving you such a Useful Pot." "In which you can put such a Suitable Balloon." "It's great to give a pot to friend" " No, a Balloon!" "On Birthday time oc-ca-si-on!"
