| 0:00.0 | Oh, he's cute. Mr. I can never sleep when I'm traveling. He's hugging his pillow like a sloth on a branch. |
| 0:10.0 | He couldn't sleep before. Now listen to him him sounds like an elephant with a chest infection |
| 0:16.0 | Well they call him a dreamer and now they're right all aboard mister I can never sleep when I'm traveling. |
| 0:23.0 | Find all the comfort you need in the quiet lounge. |
| 0:26.0 | Piando Ferries, there is another way. I'm John Bachelor with my colleagues Andrew McCarthy and Thaddeus McCatter. |
| 0:38.0 | Andy, I want to say that you're putting up a post now that suggests that Judge Cannon offered to work with Mr Smith to cure, that's |
