The Story

It's New Year but Walt and his mates are commenting that everything is pretty much the same old same old. Walt starts picking up on old things in his street, firstly telling a woman she should trade her husband in for a new model. He then spots someone with an old coat and claims it's so old it could find it's own way home. Next he collars Mr Brown saying he mustn't lose his cars pension book, which he's found on the floor. Mr Brown says it's his cheque book, and Walt says in that case use it to buy a new car!

Finally, Walt goes home, slamming the door behind him. But his parents are hungover from the party so tell him to sush. He says they've gone with the old year and how their OLD heads are playing up. But they don't see the funny side and he is tied to a chair and gagged so they can enjoy a quiet afternoon.

Notes

The last frame has a box saying "Same OLD Walt - never knows when to shut up!"
