Bob writes that it would be for Polly's friend to .
Bob writes that it would be useless 1 for Polly's friend to visit the offices 2.
1 useless: Bob writes: "it would be a waste of time for your friend to come down". Something that is a "waste of time" is "useless". Both terms describe the futility or inutility of something.
1 time-consuming: A "waste of time" means that a task is "not worth doing", while "time-consuming" indicates that a lot of time is required to finish the task.
1 unlikely: "Unlikely" is not synonymous with "a waste of time". The term "unlikely" describes something which is improbable or implausible. For example: That story about saving the orphans is unlikely.
2 visit the offices: Bob writes: "it would be a waste of time for your friend to come down". "To come down" simply means "to come" or "to visit". "To come down" often indicates that the distance between two locations is not very great.
2 bring his equipment: This is incorrect. Bob never writes about technical equipment.
2 go to the basement: To "come down" is not a literal invitation to a low or underground location in this context. We could say, however: "Come down to the basement and let me show you something" if we wanted to describe such a location. A basement is a space in the below buildings or house often used for storage.
2 restrain himself: Do not mistake "come down" with "calm down". To "restrain oneself" is to keep oneself from losing control, or doing or saying something extreme.

useful: "Useful" is the best answer here. A "useful" item is "practical" or "helpful". Example: "The University Careers Service gave me lots of useful information when I was looking for a job".

1 useless: The adjective "useless" literally describes having no beneficial use. Informally, it can describe being "ineffectual", "hopeless" or just "no good". When Bruno describes his colleagues as "useless", he believes that they are bad at thinking of original ideas. Another example: Cassette players are useless these days, everyone downloads MP3s.
2 anecdote: An "anecdote" is a short story or account of something interesting or humorous that happened in the past. In the dialogue, Bruno tells Brian to stop telling his anecdotes about Elkie Johns.

1 hands: A "hand" describes the palm and five fingers at the end of the arm. Hands are, as Edward says, "very useful tools". The hand can be used to write, draw, eat, paint etc.
2 useful: A "useful (tool)" is one which is "helpful", "practical", or "utile". In his song, Edward calls "hands" very "useful" tools. Example: "The University Careers Service gave me some useful information when I was looking for a job". Note that when "full" is used as a suffix, it is written "-ful". Some more examples: wonderful, grateful, helpful.
3 wave: To "wave (your hand")" is to make a sign or gesture with your hand, often as a greeting or a sign of departure. For example, we "wave" our hands to say hello and goodbye. In his song, Edward sings that hands can be used to 'wave" to a friend.
4 hold: To "hold" in this sense, is to physically carry something, with the hands usually. In his song, Edward sings that hands can be used to "hold power tools". "Power tools" are electronic tools such as "drills", "sanders", "saws", etc.
