Podcast Description:
In this Q&A Friday episode of Let Me Bore You to Sleep, Jason drifts between listener questions and candid reflections on life, memories, and the quiet moments that shape us. With Vinnie at his side, Jason shares heartfelt and often humorous stories about helping his late friend “Uncle Sausages,” the bittersweet process of sorting through a lifetime of belongings, and the curious way memories keep people alive in our minds. Along the way, he touches on music, nostalgia, and the value of letting go of what no longer serves us. As always, Jason’s gentle storytelling and meandering thoughts are here to soothe you into deep relaxation.

00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:59.679
warbling waglin wagling. Yes, it's Friday, the eighth of August

7
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:05.159
two thousand and twenty five. Please only listen when you

8
00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:07.640
can safety close your eyes if I have not already

9
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:18.920
said that. Earlier on, I did do a recording five

10
00:01:19.079 --> 00:01:29.640
bromyalgia relief hypnosis. So that's something I've done today this week.

11
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:42.719
What have I done this week? So I've gone a

12
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:51.640
Monday's boring objects. I did a whisper Monday, so one, two, three, four, five,

13
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:56.439
six seven. So this will be my eighth record in

14
00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:02.159
this week. And I still got two more days left,

15
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:12.319
two more days of the week, that is. And I

16
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:23.800
ordered a window cover to try and soundproof the window,

17
00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:31.439
and that should be getting delivered at some point today. Whilch.

18
00:02:31.479 --> 00:02:36.039
Would be interesting to see how that works out. It's

19
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:41.719
all worth a try. Isn't it. It's worth a try, yes,

20
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:52.039
you know. So the last few days I've been trying

21
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:57.360
to work, we're trying to trying to tidy up this place.

22
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:02.520
I had a bit of a I don't know if

23
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:15.080
it's an extrastential stench extra stench eel moment lately, but

24
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:20.120
having been over the last few weeks, I've been going

25
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:24.759
through uncle's sausages stuff, partly because he asked me to.

26
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:29.039
You know, I wasn't just having a little nose and

27
00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:31.520
he wanted me to find some things. And then when

28
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:33.960
I told him about the magazines and there's a little

29
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:37.080
bit of a mouse issue, he said, well, firstly, he

30
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:39.520
didn't want to go back to the flat, and I

31
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.919
said what about your magazines? And he said, well clear

32
00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:45.439
it out. So he asked me to clear the clear

33
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.400
his flat out, get rid of the rubbish. So I

34
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:52.280
did that and I did five bags to start with.

35
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:57.560
And that was just stuff on the just stuff on

36
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:01.240
the floor, biscuit wrappers and you stuff like that, which

37
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.280
I'm not going to judge him because I'm similar myself.

38
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:08.680
Sometimes I blame it on Vinnie, but it's not really

39
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:19.240
all him. I mean, the bones that's Vinnie and then

40
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:21.879
I started going through his books and the you know,

41
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:25.639
the books had to be chucked out, and his magazines,

42
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:32.360
and I found photographs, and I started putting stuff away,

43
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:37.439
just like that he might want to be kept, or

44
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:41.600
maybe someone might want. You know, it's like the passport

45
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.959
of his mum, his mum's old passport, and his mum's

46
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:50.560
been she's been gone for a long time, yeah, decades,

47
00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:58.800
So it was kind of, I don't know, a bit weird.

48
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:04.959
There's baby pictures of him. Well, I'm guessing they're him.

49
00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:08.279
I mean they're black and white pictures of a baby boy.

50
00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:10.839
I don't know if it's a boy, but a baby.

51
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:13.959
Some kind of figuring it might be him. I mean,

52
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:19.959
he didn't. It's hard to tell, to be honest, I

53
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:22.839
just imagine it was. He had these. They're kind of

54
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:26.720
hidden away in this container that you wouldn't even know

55
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:30.199
anything was in it, and it was just a bunch

56
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:34.000
of photographs and you know, that's personal stuff. But no

57
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:39.000
one wants it. No one wants it. No one just

58
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:46.800
there's without seeming harsh. I don't want it either. It's

59
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:51.160
of no, I don't. I don't really collect stuff from

60
00:05:51.240 --> 00:06:01.000
my own life or my own family, never mind someone else's.

61
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:06.399
But I thought there'd be someone that would because of

62
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:10.720
you know, a part of me would like to think

63
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:17.519
that maybe when my time's up, that somebody would want

64
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:27.079
a keepsake of me. But I've come to realize that

65
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:31.800
that's possibly not going to be the case. And I

66
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.199
looked at all these books, all the things that he's

67
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:41.839
collected over well, there it's a lifetime, I guess, or

68
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:51.360
being chucked out. Everything nothing, nothing being kept. It's like

69
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:56.279
all his belongings gone, every bit of clothing. Unfortunately, it

70
00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:00.120
can't be recycled as it were, can't be given to

71
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:08.360
the second end shop. But everything that meant something to

72
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:15.480
him material wise, it's gone. He's going to be chucked out.

73
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.839
But you're taken by the council now. A lot of

74
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:23.199
it is because it's of the mice and it's unhealthy,

75
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:24.800
you know what I mean. This stuff has to be

76
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.560
backed up. I went in there with gloves on and

77
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:31.879
just trying to kind of sort it out because the

78
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:34.639
council asked me to do it. And then the councilor

79
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:36.319
has said they didn't need me to do it, they

80
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:38.319
were going to come and do it themselves. And they

81
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:40.199
were going to come and get the mice people into

82
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:47.120
sought out the vermin, and they came today because I've

83
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:49.040
had a key to his flat, so they came in.

84
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:51.800
They I let them in, and they went and did

85
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:53.839
what they needed to do, and they're coming back in

86
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:56.959
a week's time to sort of check out the situation.

87
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:02.160
But he was taking photographs and he was looking and

88
00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:07.800
he said, well, it's pretty bad, but he did say

89
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:13.360
he seems worse. It's basically hoarders. It's a horder situation

90
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:18.920
because people and I'm he was a hoarder. But at

91
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:26.439
the same time, a hoarder is just someone that's clicks things.

92
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:29.680
You know, if you get into the big hoarder blah

93
00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:35.799
blah blah. You know those those TV programs always show

94
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:41.919
the very very most extreme cases. Now, you know, where

95
00:08:42.480 --> 00:08:48.759
someone literally they've got everything stacked up nearly to the ceiling,

96
00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:55.159
and it's interesting to watch because it's almost unbelievable that

97
00:08:55.240 --> 00:09:04.440
anyone could live like that. I saw his flat one

98
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:08.679
that was halfway through being emptied back before Christmas because

99
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:13.840
he was a hoarder, and it was quite high, but

100
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:16.799
it wasn't as high as a ceiling, but it was

101
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:24.120
you know, up to his knees maybe, yeah, yeah, up

102
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:29.039
to his knees pretty much higher in some places you couldn't.

103
00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:31.679
I didn't even know he had a sofa until they

104
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:34.799
had finished. I don't think he even knew he had

105
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:37.919
a bed. I said, why do you sleep in your chair?

106
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:40.039
He said, I don't know. I was meaning to get

107
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:44.399
myself a bed, and then I made that bit up.

108
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.639
Although he did sleep in the inner cety and on

109
00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:54.240
the sofa a chair, actually he didn't sleep in bed.

110
00:09:56.799 --> 00:09:59.240
But it's just someone that gets out of hand, that's

111
00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:09.000
all it is with I think with the collecting, and

112
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:11.879
I can't see he didn't like having someone coming in

113
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.879
and taking his stuff, but he didn't have any choice.

114
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:18.039
The counsel came in and basically told him they had

115
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.519
to sort it out because of being a health hazard,

116
00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:23.919
of fire hazard and all that stuff. And this is

117
00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:30.600
you know, about November time. But it was very distressing

118
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:34.840
for him because he didn't have enough time to sort

119
00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:38.279
through his own stuff to choose what he wanted to keep.

120
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.360
So what he did is he made sure that they

121
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:44.799
didn't go into any of his drawers or any of

122
00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:51.039
his cupboards, which are also full of stuff. I found

123
00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:59.519
newspapers from nineteen ninety nine. I helped him move all

124
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:04.720
the stuff the kitchen. Just before this is I think

125
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.639
it's the start of the year he had a new

126
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:09.759
kitchen put in. It might have been the end of

127
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:12.759
last year. I lose track of time, but he had

128
00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:15.720
a new kitchen put in. So the week and before

129
00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:19.240
they came to do the kitchen, I helped him to

130
00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:25.000
move everything out of the kitchen into his bedroom. And

131
00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:27.799
we were going through the drawers and I couldn't believe

132
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:32.399
stuff we were finding. There was carrier bags that had

133
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:39.480
been in there so long they've disintegrated, and it was

134
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:42.799
kind of there was one that was so bad as

135
00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:46.000
like I said, sim uncle, sausages. You're going to have

136
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:48.279
to deal with this. This I'm not. I'm not touching

137
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:54.919
that draw You can deal without yourself. But you know,

138
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:56.399
to try and help him out a little bit if

139
00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:02.639
I could. But the people from the council when they

140
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:06.039
did what was the subcontracted when they did it, they

141
00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:10.039
didn't no surfaces were cleared from the looks of it,

142
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.440
you know, nothing was no cupboards were looked in all

143
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:22.840
the stuff where I don't know. Basically, I think he

144
00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:27.399
needed to have been put into a hotel or go

145
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:31.159
and stay somewhere for a week while the whole place

146
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:36.080
was just emptied and bearing in mind his age, and

147
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:39.799
he wasn't really so much able to look after himself.

148
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:45.279
He was independent, but there were certain aspects that he

149
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:51.639
wasn't doing great with, maybe doing really well compared to

150
00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:55.120
a lot of people his age, but he wasn't. He wasn't.

151
00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.080
He needed help, but he didn't ask for any help

152
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:04.519
other than from me, And most of that was just

153
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:08.320
helping with bills and talking to people on the phone

154
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:12.000
and getting his front door sorted out, and helping get

155
00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:14.879
his kitchen cleared and help him with bits and bobs

156
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:19.120
like that and ordering stuff on nine, you know, things

157
00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:28.960
that he sort of didn't enjoy doing, but he it's

158
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:33.480
just really weird. I went in there again today and

159
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:42.279
showed the the mice men around and I said, I

160
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:45.120
know it's really it's a bit grotty in these two rooms,

161
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:50.000
but the kitchen in the bathroom are fine. The kitchens.

162
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:55.039
I said, I think there's like rat droppings in the

163
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:57.360
kitchen and he said, no, it's not rat droppings. They're

164
00:13:57.399 --> 00:14:01.440
like these beetle shellfings, like rad droppings, but they're not

165
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:11.559
and the bathroom perfect. Uncle Sausages hadn't hadn't even seen

166
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:14.759
the finished article of his bathroom because it was in

167
00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:19.320
the process of being rebuilt, refurbished or whatever while he was.

168
00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:22.519
He was still there when they started it, so they

169
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.720
were there for the first week. He was there for

170
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:27.799
the first week of them doing it from Tuesday to Friday,

171
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:32.960
and on Friday night he went in Tosspital. So they

172
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.000
hadn't I don't think they put the bath in yet.

173
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:40.559
I hadn't put in and put the toilet in, but

174
00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:48.200
I hadn't put in. I can't remember. I'm pretty sure

175
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.799
they asked me even what kind of tiles did he want?

176
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:56.519
And I just said they were asking me, like, I

177
00:14:56.519 --> 00:15:01.080
don't know, but the because i' let them in every day,

178
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:04.039
So you know, there was like the plumber, then there

179
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:07.240
was the electrician, then there was the plaster, then there

180
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:11.720
was the painter. All the different kind of trades people

181
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:18.759
that came in, and he never got to see it.

182
00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:25.120
He never got to see the end result. And he's down,

183
00:15:25.240 --> 00:15:29.840
he's waiting, well, he was waiting later in the year,

184
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.879
I don't know when, but this year, sometime in the

185
00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:36.600
next few months he's going to have all new windows

186
00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:44.240
in there as well, so practically a whole new flat

187
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:49.440
other than the living room and the bedroom, although that

188
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:54.159
will now be all cleared out. And I mean they

189
00:15:54.200 --> 00:16:00.960
don't the council don't refurbish the flat. When you don't

190
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:05.279
like the living room in the bedroom. They they will

191
00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:09.559
strip the place get everything out of there in this

192
00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:12.360
kind of situation. They did the same with my friend

193
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:16.279
Luke downstairs, and Trina who also lived downstairs, did the

194
00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:19.000
same there as well, who she passed away as well.

195
00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:23.039
So this is a third third person who I've lived

196
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.919
in this block with that's passed away in the last

197
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:36.720
five years. It's crazy, really, Yeah, Trina was the first. First, Yeah,

198
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:41.720
it was the beginning of twenty twenty and Luke ended

199
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:55.399
twenty twenty three November, and now Uncle Sausages. It's kind

200
00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:58.399
of weird. It's just just weird. But anyway, I don't

201
00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:05.319
want to keep talking about that. But orthough, I am.

202
00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:07.960
I'm starting to wonder though. This is I know this

203
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:10.079
isn't really anything to do with Q and A Friday,

204
00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:14.039
but you know, this to let me boy to sleep

205
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:20.680
is it's kind of like a I don't know, like

206
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:27.359
a journal or a diary, a verbal you know, vlog, blog,

207
00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:32.599
whatever you want to call it. And so I do

208
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:34.880
talk about my life. I talk about what's gone on

209
00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:38.640
and how I'm feeling. I try to keep it light,

210
00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:43.079
and you know, I don't talk about things like this

211
00:17:43.240 --> 00:17:46.400
when it's not happening. You know, it's like like I'm

212
00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:51.559
constantly talking about bereavement and things like that because I'm not.

213
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:54.880
I don't. If you listen regularly, you know that I

214
00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:58.160
do try and keep it quite light. And I'm trying

215
00:17:58.200 --> 00:18:00.319
to keep this light as well. It's just a little

216
00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:07.759
bit hard because there's also the reality, or at least

217
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:15.920
my reality, of the situation. And it just seems like

218
00:18:16.119 --> 00:18:23.880
he's if I don't talk about him, he's forgotten. Now

219
00:18:24.599 --> 00:18:27.400
it's not going to be forgotten or remembered by anyone listening,

220
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.240
because no one listening knows him, you know, in a

221
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:34.039
sense of you don't know, just like Luke or anyone

222
00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:36.200
else sort of in my life. You don't know these people,

223
00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:41.799
but it kind of keeps I feel like it keeps

224
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:45.319
them alive, keeps as long as the memory is alive,

225
00:18:46.480 --> 00:18:51.839
it keeps them alive, like you know, really famous people

226
00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:59.559
that live on are Charles Dickens or Elvis Presley or

227
00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:14.400
you know famous musicians, composers, authors, actors, people like that

228
00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:18.319
that are kind of just gonna I mean, it doesn't

229
00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:24.440
seem like Elvis Presley is ever gonna be forgotten. I

230
00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:27.680
know there's millions and millions, maybe billions of people on

231
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:29.680
the planet that have got no idea who he is

232
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:37.519
or who he was. But every generation is going to

233
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:42.720
find a new group of people that will fall in

234
00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:47.519
love with Elvis Presley and his songs, and it might

235
00:19:47.559 --> 00:19:51.119
be mean for me. The reason I love Elvis is

236
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:56.960
because my oldest brother who was obsessed with Elvis. So

237
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:00.880
I spent years of my childhood listening to Elvis songs

238
00:20:01.920 --> 00:20:04.000
because my brother would play them and he was in charge.

239
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:07.039
He was the oldest brother. If he decided we were

240
00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:09.279
listening to Elvis songs, that's what we were listening to.

241
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:17.720
So I loved Elvis, and my dad loved the Beatles,

242
00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:22.880
so I kind of He didn't talk about the Beatles,

243
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:27.359
but he played the Beatles songs a lot, like you know,

244
00:20:27.400 --> 00:20:30.200
when we was in the car and stuff. So I

245
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:35.039
grew up even though I was the Beatles was well

246
00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:39.319
and truly over long before I was like, could know

247
00:20:39.359 --> 00:20:42.400
who they were, where they split out before I was born.

248
00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:49.119
I do remember hearing about John Lennon and I was

249
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:53.680
in and that was big news. Bearing in mind I

250
00:20:53.799 --> 00:21:01.680
was was it in nineteen eighty two, eighty two, something

251
00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:03.279
like that? I was like, I'm sure, I was at

252
00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:06.680
high school and I was in the getting changed in

253
00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:10.000
the changing room at sports we were doing you know,

254
00:21:10.119 --> 00:21:14.400
sports whatever football or whatever it was, and so came

255
00:21:14.480 --> 00:21:21.039
in and shouted about John Lennon. Like, so I knew

256
00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:29.680
who he was. Absolutely loved John Lennon's solo songs that

257
00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:33.400
were kind of I suppose they were late seventies, but

258
00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:37.839
they became really popular in the early eighties, or they

259
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:40.359
might have been in the early eighties. I don't know.

260
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:45.599
I'm pretty sure imagine was it was in the seventies.

261
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:51.559
I first came out, and woman, those were my two

262
00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:57.319
favorite songs that John Lennen did, you know, solo wise?

263
00:21:58.880 --> 00:22:02.240
Although I didn't really, I don't know. All I'm excited about this.

264
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:10.160
I didn't realize that, oh what did he He did

265
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:13.480
a song and then Brian Ferry did it, and Brian

266
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:18.440
Ferry did a much arguably a much better version of it.

267
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:25.359
I'm just a well a guy whatever it is, is it?

268
00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:29.920
Brian Fairy was so good, that Brian Ferry version, and

269
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:31.839
then I heard the John Lennon version and that was

270
00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:36.480
also really good. But Brian Ferry just I think I

271
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:43.400
got the right singer. I'm just a classic guy something

272
00:22:43.440 --> 00:22:50.680
like that. I'm just something guy. Such a good song.

273
00:22:51.839 --> 00:22:56.319
And see, there's also something that I've noticed recently that

274
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:58.839
I'm also you might have noticed about me. I'm a

275
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:05.079
huge Bob Dylan and I have heard hardly anything from

276
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:08.480
Bob Dylan that I didn't like, even though I don't

277
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:12.720
understand half of what he's singing about, because he's singing

278
00:23:12.720 --> 00:23:16.599
about stuff from like the fifties and sixties and you know,

279
00:23:16.759 --> 00:23:21.319
different towns in America and beat nick stuff. Well I

280
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:24.720
know a little bit about beatnik stuff, but you know,

281
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:30.160
I don't really because it was before my time and

282
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:33.440
even in the seventies. Like one of my favorite albums

283
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:36.119
of all time is Blood on the Tracks, which is

284
00:23:36.160 --> 00:23:39.000
a Bob Dylan song from about nineteen seventy two or

285
00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:45.079
nineteen seventy four, something like that, and I just love

286
00:23:46.519 --> 00:23:52.519
I love it. He mister Tenbourne Man Blue Song for me. See,

287
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:58.359
I didn't used to like that song when anyone else

288
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:03.240
sung it, because he wasn't like it was a really

289
00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:06.960
popular song sung by so many different bands. I didn't

290
00:24:06.960 --> 00:24:10.640
know Bob Dylan sung it. And then when I heard

291
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:12.839
Bob Dylan sing it, I thought, Oh, I like this

292
00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:18.559
and some of the lyrics I remember when I'm very

293
00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:21.359
because I've known about Bob Dylan since I was a kid,

294
00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:25.079
because he's always been around my whole life. I've not

295
00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:28.440
lived with him. I don't mean that way. It's not

296
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:35.200
my neighbor doesn't live in the loft, but he every

297
00:24:35.319 --> 00:24:39.279
you know, he was always around. It was always I'd

298
00:24:39.359 --> 00:24:44.400
see him on Telly and I'd see him. It's just

299
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:47.680
one of those things. Like Kirk Douglas. I'd see him

300
00:24:47.680 --> 00:24:50.440
in the movies, so I grew up even though the

301
00:24:50.480 --> 00:24:54.720
movies he was in were from the fifties in the sixties,

302
00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:58.000
and I was watching him in the eighties, So I

303
00:24:58.039 --> 00:25:02.160
grew up knowing him. And it's really weird when his

304
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:12.200
son became a massive star and what was this Kirk

305
00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:21.480
Douglas's son, what was his name? Douglas? So good? What

306
00:25:21.640 --> 00:25:28.079
a great comedy actor, what a great actor generally Daniel,

307
00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:36.880
not Daniel Douglas. Why have I forgotten his first name?

308
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:44.279
I know who he married, But he's so, he's just

309
00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:49.200
got he's got that. He's got. Another really good actor

310
00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:55.720
is John Pertree's son. I think it's Sean Pertwee. He's

311
00:25:55.759 --> 00:25:57.759
so good, but he's never gone on to be like

312
00:25:58.000 --> 00:26:03.559
super famous, and I don't understand it, because he's really

313
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:08.720
really good. He's great at action, he's great at comedy.

314
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:14.279
He's got the timing, got he's got it. And his

315
00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:18.599
dad was super famous being in Doctor Who and Wordswillgummage

316
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:20.839
and a lot of other things. So his dad was

317
00:26:20.920 --> 00:26:24.960
really famous in this country. And Sean pertwe I think

318
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:29.960
it's Sean. Didn't he do Robin Hood or something back

319
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:34.880
in the eighties. I think he might have done, but

320
00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:39.920
he was so he's so good, and I just anyway, Well,

321
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:41.440
this hasn't really got anything to do with Q and

322
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:50.599
A Friday, but very little has these days. I suppose

323
00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:53.079
I was just wondering, what's going to happen to my stuff?

324
00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:57.200
Someone's going to come in here and just chuck my

325
00:26:57.240 --> 00:27:06.079
stuff away, and it's it's got me thinking, why have

326
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:11.759
I even got any stuff? So I started having a

327
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:13.720
bit bit clear out and getting rid of things that

328
00:27:13.759 --> 00:27:15.960
I don't need, things that I'm not going to look

329
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:19.319
at again. Why am I? There's no point in having

330
00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:23.880
stuff if I'm not going to use it. So yeah,

331
00:27:24.559 --> 00:27:31.880
it's been able to tidy up just the idea of

332
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:35.960
someone going through my things. And I saw that with Luke.

333
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:40.599
Luke's my friend Luke stuff that he had people come in.

334
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:45.799
He had some family come and take some keepsakes, t shirts,

335
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:53.079
a few things just for a memory, you know, of him,

336
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:56.839
something that I don't know, whatever they wanted do. It

337
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:00.279
was just a few little bits, and then he had

338
00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:02.799
someone else come in and just try and sell as

339
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:08.960
much stuff as they could as well. So that lasted

340
00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:12.279
for a week a month or five weeks a month,

341
00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:16.599
something like that, and then the rest of it was

342
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:21.640
just left for the council to come and collect, and

343
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:27.799
they did collect it, but while they were collecting it,

344
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:34.759
they were just mocking what he had. And I saw

345
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:39.839
some bloke he was standing on top of this. The

346
00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:45.000
council led these cages where they also used they using

347
00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:49.960
for rubbish, but they also use them for like cutting

348
00:28:50.079 --> 00:28:52.960
trees or cut you know, trimming hedges and stuff, so

349
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:55.240
it's kind of they put it in and it's all

350
00:28:55.319 --> 00:29:00.680
kind of caged up on this van thing probably a

351
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:05.480
tip and the call term for the v hickel, but

352
00:29:05.559 --> 00:29:11.200
I don't know what it is. And this bloke was

353
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:16.079
shouting to his friend or his colleague that was in

354
00:29:16.119 --> 00:29:19.920
the flat as well, so very loud, shouting out, oh,

355
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:24.119
this is such a bunch of junk, whilst using a

356
00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:28.400
hammer or some sledgehammer thing to smash up the stuff

357
00:29:28.440 --> 00:29:32.039
in the back of this cage, smashing up his belongings.

358
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:39.039
And yeah, I had to I had to walk away

359
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:43.880
from that situation because I found a little bit a

360
00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:51.559
lot disrespectful. You know. It's I realized they don't know

361
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:54.359
the person, and they probably didn't even know that he

362
00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:57.200
They might have for all they know, he just moved

363
00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:00.599
out and left all this stuff there. And that happens

364
00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:04.640
a lot with the council apparently, so they weren't to

365
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:17.039
know this situation. And yeah, perhaps they're not employed based

366
00:30:17.119 --> 00:30:23.559
upon their emotional intelligence, but a little bit of a

367
00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:29.839
little bit of consideration. I don't know, right, it might

368
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:36.359
have some background noise. Now I've got myself a noise detector.

369
00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:41.319
Any cheap thing, but there's no batteries, so I have

370
00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:45.160
to buy some batteries. But basically it checks the decimal

371
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:49.079
of the level of noise coming in through the window.

372
00:30:49.720 --> 00:30:51.599
So I'm going to be able to test that with

373
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:56.200
the different things I use to try and soundproof the window,

374
00:30:56.640 --> 00:31:01.480
but also be interested to see how loud decimal they're

375
00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:07.359
shoutings and whether or not it's breaking the law just

376
00:31:07.519 --> 00:31:10.359
out of interest. I'm not never going to report them anyway,

377
00:31:10.400 --> 00:31:14.240
because I I don't do stuff like that, but just

378
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:18.319
be interesting or whether it's just me being oversensitive, which

379
00:31:18.319 --> 00:31:24.240
it could be. I mean, it only really bothers me

380
00:31:24.759 --> 00:31:27.160
when I'm trying to make a recording. The rest of

381
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:31.400
the time most of the time, some of the time

382
00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:37.640
doesn't worry me at all. It's just when I'm trying

383
00:31:37.680 --> 00:31:40.920
to make a record, especially if it's a hypnosis recording,

384
00:31:41.720 --> 00:31:46.119
I need it to be quiet for me as well,

385
00:31:46.160 --> 00:31:50.960
because I'm focused very much on what I'm saying. I'm

386
00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:54.759
focused on how I'm saying it, and focused on the

387
00:31:54.880 --> 00:32:00.319
pauses because a lot more pauses, like quiet space is

388
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:04.160
in the recording. We know what pauses. You want to

389
00:32:04.200 --> 00:32:09.839
explain what pauses? Okay, right, wow, And it's hard to

390
00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:18.680
have a pause or you know, a gap in the talking. Okay,

391
00:32:19.079 --> 00:32:25.319
you know what pauses? Yeah, if you especially like I

392
00:32:25.359 --> 00:32:27.640
was doing this one for five and my Aurja and

393
00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:31.440
it's you know, there's like a gap as they now,

394
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:39.799
let your unconscious mind just absorb these messages and allow

395
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:45.799
everything to just come together slowly in your own time,

396
00:32:48.039 --> 00:32:50.640
and then there's a pause. But if after that all

397
00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:54.440
you hear is do you want a coffee? Yeah, I've

398
00:32:54.440 --> 00:32:59.119
got a coffee. You're writing you what? What did you

399
00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:02.680
get any shape? Golsh night? Was it because the people

400
00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:11.680
actually they were really loud, really loud. It's like, okay,

401
00:33:11.720 --> 00:33:15.200
this is six point thirty in the morning, people come on,

402
00:33:16.599 --> 00:33:24.440
I really loud. Didn't consider it so yeah. Other than that,

403
00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:29.680
they're actually really nice people. It's just I don't like

404
00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:33.799
anything getting in a way of this. It's one of

405
00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:37.119
my little peeves. You know, this is important to me

406
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:43.160
doing these things, and I'm trying to whether you've noticed

407
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:47.200
or not, I'm trying to sort of do a bit

408
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:53.680
more of the old hypnosy stuff. I'm not sure how well.

409
00:33:54.599 --> 00:34:02.640
I don't know. I don't know, I don't know. Is

410
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:09.000
it going well? I don't know. I don't know. I'm

411
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:14.639
not sure, right, Okay, that's interesting. What's going on here?

412
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:21.960
So I'm trying to look at my podcast Okay, this

413
00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:28.159
is YouTube. I'm trying to look at my stats downloads

414
00:34:28.199 --> 00:34:34.480
eight new videos. That's that's that's it's not it's not

415
00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:44.840
given me that. Okay, never mind my videos. Well, the

416
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:47.280
stats that seem to be going up a bit with

417
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:52.239
the old YouTube videos, which are just it's basically just

418
00:34:52.280 --> 00:35:00.320
a podcast. It's this podcast and I saw it. So

419
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:04.719
every single time I record something, it gets uploaded onto

420
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:09.400
YouTube in a format of just the podcast episode, so

421
00:35:09.440 --> 00:35:12.960
whether it's normal length all the way up to ten

422
00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:17.519
hours with and without music, and they're all uploaded, all

423
00:35:17.599 --> 00:35:25.800
six versions. And I've started to increase the subscribers the

424
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:30.719
last few days, and more people are listening to the recordings.

425
00:35:33.039 --> 00:35:37.760
It's not huge, but it's increasing, which is it's always nice,

426
00:35:38.119 --> 00:35:43.920
it's always always groovy to have that happen. Oh, I'm wondering,

427
00:35:44.039 --> 00:35:51.079
notice where's the oh there is? So I suppose really

428
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:55.400
what I was trying to sort of come to figure

429
00:35:55.400 --> 00:36:01.719
out is how can I be remembered? How can I

430
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:04.440
be remembered? Will I be remembered or I'm just I'm

431
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:10.280
just going to be forgotten. And it seems weird bearing

432
00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:13.880
in mind I've done thousands of recordings. I mean literally

433
00:36:14.679 --> 00:36:22.280
individual recordings. I've done thousands. It doesn't even make sense

434
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:27.800
really when you think about it. I mean, let me

435
00:36:27.880 --> 00:36:31.920
boy to sleep. I've done one thousand, four hundred and

436
00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:38.800
seven different recordings and a lot of then there's six versions,

437
00:36:38.840 --> 00:36:43.880
and I've also done hundreds and hundreds and hundreds probably

438
00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:52.840
maybe a thousand other different recordings as well, So that's

439
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:56.920
quite a lot, quite a bit in it, and you

440
00:36:56.960 --> 00:37:04.400
think quite a bit, and what's going to happen to

441
00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:10.760
all those recordings? Because when I'm departed, Oh, come on,

442
00:37:10.800 --> 00:37:16.159
what are you doing? Okay, itchy leg? When I'm departed,

443
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:19.400
what happens to all these recordings? It will just be

444
00:37:19.960 --> 00:37:23.880
they'll just disappear because they're not physical. They're not a

445
00:37:23.880 --> 00:37:26.679
physical thing. They're not I mean, if they're a physical thing,

446
00:37:26.719 --> 00:37:29.440
the politic gets stuck, get chucked out by the council

447
00:37:29.519 --> 00:37:34.000
and smashed up while someone's showing what a bunch of junk?

448
00:37:35.079 --> 00:37:40.079
Hey what did this bloke do? There's all these recordings,

449
00:37:41.159 --> 00:37:44.360
I mean, technically they are they are saved on hard drives,

450
00:37:44.400 --> 00:37:51.039
but it's saved on the podcasts. But what's going to

451
00:37:51.119 --> 00:37:55.119
happen to all the recordings? Will they be of any

452
00:37:55.280 --> 00:38:01.920
use to anyone in the future. I don't have an

453
00:38:01.920 --> 00:38:05.760
answer for this, and it's it's been a little bit

454
00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:10.039
on my mind, just a little bit. And I know

455
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:17.960
that I'm not you know, I'm not I've not invented

456
00:38:18.039 --> 00:38:21.679
something that's changed the world, so I'm not going to

457
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:27.639
be remembered like that. I'm not famous, so I be

458
00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:33.440
remembered by millions of people because I've not got that

459
00:38:33.559 --> 00:38:38.599
kind of audience, not yet. Anyway, give it time, baby,

460
00:38:39.079 --> 00:38:49.760
give it time. There's there's probably a few there's a

461
00:38:49.840 --> 00:38:54.400
few thousand people, maybe I reckon probably ten twenty thousand

462
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:57.599
people around the world that know who I am. Would

463
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:00.639
that have listened to me? Maybe more, maybe fifty thousand

464
00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:06.559
over the nineteen years I've been doing this, perhaps even

465
00:39:06.599 --> 00:39:10.039
more than that, just that at least that I've listened

466
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:13.000
to me. But then I guess I'll be forgotten by

467
00:39:13.000 --> 00:39:18.000
a lot of those people. So I'm known a little

468
00:39:18.039 --> 00:39:23.199
bit around the world. Mind you, twenty thousand is not bad.

469
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:27.400
That could fill out a stadium or an arena in

470
00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:33.639
this country. If I could get every single person from

471
00:39:33.679 --> 00:39:37.960
around the world that's listening to that's listened to my

472
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:42.519
recordings in the last year, over the last twelve months,

473
00:39:43.000 --> 00:39:45.679
I could probably it's probably going to be about twenty

474
00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:52.360
thousand people, maybe maybe a lot more than that. I

475
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:56.960
tried to work it out once, but it's hard. It's

476
00:39:57.000 --> 00:40:00.079
really hard to figure out. You know, there's regular p

477
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:04.599
there's people that sort on my Facebook group. There's only

478
00:40:04.639 --> 00:40:08.800
two hundred and twenty members on my Jason Newland's Boring group,

479
00:40:11.119 --> 00:40:14.360
but generally the people in that group, in that group

480
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:22.079
are regular listeners. But I do have for every person

481
00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:26.960
that would join a group to listen, there's going to

482
00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:34.000
be probably another ten, twenty, forty to fifty that I'll

483
00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:37.559
never hear about. Just like for every person that's meant

484
00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:44.119
that posts a comment, there'll be hundreds that don't, that

485
00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:46.880
won't post a comment, on thousands that won't post a comment.

486
00:40:48.320 --> 00:40:52.639
Because what I do is not really necessarily comment post

487
00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:59.599
the ball the ball is it? It's like, it's not

488
00:40:59.679 --> 00:41:02.360
really I guess I suppose on YouTube, so I might

489
00:41:03.199 --> 00:41:06.920
post a message a comment saying thank you for this

490
00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:10.320
and stuff, But on podcasts. You don't get that, don't

491
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:17.679
really get hardly any feedback at all at all. In fact,

492
00:41:17.719 --> 00:41:24.760
if I go to my website, just on Jason newl

493
00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:34.800
dot com, let me have a look playlists. Oh wait

494
00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:44.559
a minute, that's weird. There's no home contact, Facebook group, YouTube,

495
00:41:44.599 --> 00:41:51.719
podcast apps, playlists, podcasts, PayPal reviews. That's what I was

496
00:41:51.760 --> 00:41:57.960
looking for, and then requested recordings reviews. The last actual

497
00:41:57.960 --> 00:42:04.800
review that I've got on here was from probably a

498
00:42:04.920 --> 00:42:11.280
year ago maybe infact, I can't even know. I don't

499
00:42:11.320 --> 00:42:15.480
know what it was. It's a while back. So yeah,

500
00:42:15.519 --> 00:42:25.199
I don't get regular, regular reviews, which is okay, it's

501
00:42:25.239 --> 00:42:29.360
not I prefer more. I prefer not regular people because

502
00:42:32.800 --> 00:42:37.159
it's good advertising. You know. It's almost like I'm I'm like,

503
00:42:38.239 --> 00:42:42.039
people's like little dirty secret, like let's not let anyone out.

504
00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:43.760
Don't want anyone to know that I listened to that

505
00:42:43.800 --> 00:42:47.880
weird man in England. I don't want anyone to know. No,

506
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:53.039
And you know, the thing is if you, if you

507
00:42:53.119 --> 00:43:01.480
actually have some kind of benefit from listening to my recordings,

508
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:07.199
then chances that are other people will also gain some

509
00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:12.840
kind of benefit, whether it's fallen asleep, whether it's just

510
00:43:14.320 --> 00:43:18.239
calming your mind down and relaxing a bit, or just

511
00:43:20.559 --> 00:43:24.639
hearing a familiar, friendly voice. I like to think I've

512
00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:31.280
got a fairly friendly voice. Is my voice friendly or

513
00:43:31.599 --> 00:43:38.000
better be more? Or I have a friendly voice? So yeah,

514
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:40.840
I like to it could be just that, it could

515
00:43:40.880 --> 00:43:55.960
be company. Because I do regular, regular recordings. Then it's

516
00:43:56.039 --> 00:44:03.639
kind of to me it's sort of like a radio

517
00:44:03.760 --> 00:44:09.679
show kind of. It's not live, but it is now

518
00:44:09.800 --> 00:44:17.599
at the moment, it's live as I record it, and

519
00:44:17.800 --> 00:44:20.239
he's got his eyes open. I wonder what he's thinking.

520
00:44:21.639 --> 00:44:24.760
He's just laying down on his side, listening to the

521
00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:33.320
outside sounds, the lovely sounds. You like the sounds, don't you. Hey?

522
00:44:33.840 --> 00:44:36.000
I put his dinner out this morning, and his breakfast,

523
00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:40.159
not touching it, not being hungry, have you? But when

524
00:44:40.159 --> 00:44:45.639
we go out and you see the other dog walkers

525
00:44:46.719 --> 00:44:48.920
and they've got treats, you go, oh, give me a treat,

526
00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:54.480
Give me a treat, don't you? Hey? Should do so.

527
00:44:55.119 --> 00:44:56.920
He's always got a bit of room and he's tummy

528
00:44:56.960 --> 00:45:00.400
for some treats, don't you. And I shouldn't keep saying

529
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:06.199
that word because I've got none for him. I've run out, Sorry, mate,

530
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:13.760
you've got food if you eat it, your little sausage.

531
00:45:14.559 --> 00:45:18.599
That's another word that gets some sausage like sausages. Don't

532
00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:25.920
you uncle sausages. I don't know if I'll tell you

533
00:45:26.000 --> 00:45:31.199
that Uncle Sausages started calling Vinnie's sausage. So they called him,

534
00:45:31.280 --> 00:45:37.199
they call him sausages. And he started asking me how

535
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:42.119
sausage is getting on. It was so cute, don't it.

536
00:45:45.000 --> 00:45:48.880
You loved your uncle sausages, didn't you, Hey, because he

537
00:45:48.960 --> 00:45:51.159
used to the reason we called him that, the reason

538
00:45:51.199 --> 00:45:54.199
Vinnie calls him that is because he used to buy

539
00:45:54.280 --> 00:45:57.039
these sausages, these packs of sausages from up the road,

540
00:45:57.920 --> 00:46:03.000
and they were horrible. I mean they were supposedly for

541
00:46:03.119 --> 00:46:07.760
human consumption, and I would not touch them. They were

542
00:46:07.840 --> 00:46:23.719
like these rubbery I don't know, Frankenfurter, savoloy rubbery y. No.

543
00:46:24.559 --> 00:46:27.480
I wouldn't touch him. I touched him give them to him.

544
00:46:28.719 --> 00:46:31.079
He loved them. I didn't even think he was going

545
00:46:31.159 --> 00:46:34.159
to like him, because I thought I wouldn't even eat them.

546
00:46:34.559 --> 00:46:43.000
But he absolutely adored them, didn't you. Yes, she did.

547
00:46:44.159 --> 00:46:48.320
Gotta bite me. You gotta bite me. It's really good.

548
00:46:48.360 --> 00:46:50.400
I got. I put my hand near him, but my

549
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:58.239
hand away and he tries to bite it. So I

550
00:46:58.280 --> 00:47:01.679
don't know. I'm just waffling now. Hope asks me, how

551
00:47:01.679 --> 00:47:09.920
many times have you cut your toenails since nineteen ninety? Well,

552
00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:13.920
I have, She also says, just kidding, I've been holding

553
00:47:14.159 --> 00:47:19.360
in that end for four weeks. I'm going to answer anyway,

554
00:47:19.519 --> 00:47:24.039
So there, how many times are I probably since nineteen ninety?

555
00:47:24.119 --> 00:47:31.039
I reckon about three times. Yeah, it's I'm not very

556
00:47:31.039 --> 00:47:36.039
good at cutting my toenails. They need cutting now, and

557
00:47:36.119 --> 00:47:40.760
sometimes they grew. I used to what I used to do,

558
00:47:41.639 --> 00:47:43.920
I used to cut them too short and they ended

559
00:47:44.000 --> 00:47:48.199
up getting grown toenails when I was about fifteen sixteen,

560
00:47:49.119 --> 00:47:54.519
and I had that as a problem for a few years.

561
00:47:54.679 --> 00:47:57.880
So what I did is purposely that let them grow

562
00:48:00.320 --> 00:48:03.239
so that that never happened again, and that hasn't happened since.

563
00:48:08.559 --> 00:48:14.679
But because of that, the big toes are not quite

564
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:18.039
as the toenails and quite as straight as the other ones,

565
00:48:19.199 --> 00:48:26.639
because they've been partially removed in the past. I don't

566
00:48:26.679 --> 00:48:29.920
cut them very often, not as I remember. I had

567
00:48:29.960 --> 00:48:33.639
a date. Yeah, I had a date with this lady

568
00:48:33.800 --> 00:48:40.920
back ninety or two thousand and five it was, and

569
00:48:40.960 --> 00:48:48.559
I went around her house. I wasn't any really expecting

570
00:48:48.599 --> 00:48:53.840
anything to happen, but I ended up with my socks

571
00:48:53.840 --> 00:49:01.679
off and they were like, i'd yeah, it wasn't good.

572
00:49:03.119 --> 00:49:04.880
Well it was good, but it wasn't you know. My

573
00:49:04.960 --> 00:49:08.719
toenails weren't good. And she cut my toenails. It's like, Okay,

574
00:49:09.440 --> 00:49:11.760
a bit of a weird at the first state, but hey,

575
00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:22.639
I'm going to go with it. And I walked home.

576
00:49:24.920 --> 00:49:29.800
See when I cut my toenails, I checked them. I

577
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:34.760
didn't check them. Now, I'm not being horrible, but she

578
00:49:35.079 --> 00:49:39.480
didn't cut them properly in a way. Now what I

579
00:49:39.519 --> 00:49:44.320
mean by that is there was one bit of now

580
00:49:44.519 --> 00:49:50.400
sticking out the side. And I walked and there's a

581
00:49:50.400 --> 00:49:56.800
pretty about an hour over an hour's walk maybe an

582
00:49:56.800 --> 00:50:03.960
hour and fifteen minute walk home, and my whole sock

583
00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:10.440
was soaking with there wasn't sweat anyway. It basically it

584
00:50:10.639 --> 00:50:13.719
cut my toenail, my tonail, cut my other toe open

585
00:50:15.280 --> 00:50:21.519
and it was really sore. Just it's really weird. And

586
00:50:21.599 --> 00:50:29.440
I was just like, wow, so pretty much. And I

587
00:50:29.440 --> 00:50:31.960
did have my when I was a been into a

588
00:50:32.119 --> 00:50:41.039
now salon and have my toenails cut. That's weird. That's

589
00:50:41.039 --> 00:50:42.679
really is. By the way, just in case you wonder

590
00:50:42.719 --> 00:50:45.920
what the noise is, it's Vinny and giving himself a

591
00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:51.800
little bed bath, a little flannel, a little flannel bath,

592
00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:59.639
a little a little you know, you know dogs what

593
00:50:59.719 --> 00:51:06.159
they like to do. Get in there, boy, And so

594
00:51:06.320 --> 00:51:12.559
how many since nineteen ninety probably how many times do

595
00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:18.199
we cut our town hours in a year? Twice? Three times?

596
00:51:18.280 --> 00:51:24.679
Maybe it's definitely my toenails grow a lot slower than

597
00:51:24.679 --> 00:51:34.199
my fingernails. My fingernails grow really quick. Toenails probably they

598
00:51:34.239 --> 00:51:39.920
do need to be cut out. They are ready. Yeah,

599
00:51:40.000 --> 00:51:44.320
they're pretty much. I'm not saying they're crying out and

600
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:48.199
they're like, oh cut me, please, Dad, do cut me? No,

601
00:51:48.440 --> 00:51:52.239
nothing like that. But they do need to be trimmed.

602
00:51:53.559 --> 00:51:59.400
But they're not like they're not like a witch's talents.

603
00:51:59.440 --> 00:52:05.360
You know, they're not really all curly. And you see

604
00:52:05.400 --> 00:52:10.039
that people that are againness book of records for the

605
00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:16.719
longest fingernails, and it's probably that it's like the pride

606
00:52:16.760 --> 00:52:23.639
of their life is having the longest fingernails. But what

607
00:52:24.400 --> 00:52:29.000
quality of life do they have with those things? You know,

608
00:52:29.960 --> 00:52:35.320
they're like twenty foot long? What can they do? What

609
00:52:35.360 --> 00:52:43.639
can they actually do, you know what I mean, like why?

610
00:52:45.159 --> 00:52:48.480
But yeah, who's who am I to judge? So probably

611
00:52:48.599 --> 00:52:54.719
maybe four times a year, was it nineteen ninety It

612
00:52:54.800 --> 00:52:56.880
might be more than four times a year. I don't know.

613
00:52:57.000 --> 00:53:03.800
I mean there was a period when, Yeah, I've always

614
00:53:03.840 --> 00:53:06.719
had a bit of sort of kind of forgetfulness when

615
00:53:06.760 --> 00:53:11.599
it comes to toenails because I don't go naked with

616
00:53:11.599 --> 00:53:17.320
my toes. They're always covered up so no one ever

617
00:53:17.360 --> 00:53:21.199
gets to see them, and I forget they're there. Really,

618
00:53:21.920 --> 00:53:23.760
I mean I know they're there, but I forget they're there.

619
00:53:24.360 --> 00:53:29.239
It's a little bit like like nipples. Really, I just

620
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:32.519
don't really I don't give them much thought. Not that

621
00:53:32.559 --> 00:53:34.320
I need to trim my nipples, but you know, I'm

622
00:53:34.320 --> 00:53:38.599
just saying it's that would be weird. It's it's just

623
00:53:38.800 --> 00:53:41.039
it's just not one belly button. It's just a thing.

624
00:53:42.639 --> 00:53:48.360
It's the thing that's there, and I don't really use anymore.

625
00:53:49.480 --> 00:53:51.760
I could go further now, couldn't know what other parts

626
00:53:51.760 --> 00:53:57.639
of my body door not use anymore. So probably quite

627
00:53:57.679 --> 00:54:06.000
a few times forty forty was it ninety two thousand, ten,

628
00:54:06.199 --> 00:54:17.880
twenty forty eighty and twenty one hundred and forty one

629
00:54:17.960 --> 00:54:20.639
hundred and forty times. That's a lot, isn't it. Probably

630
00:54:20.639 --> 00:54:23.159
about one hundred and forty times, maybe two hundred times,

631
00:54:24.159 --> 00:54:30.719
maybe more, maybe less at Dinny No, I mean there

632
00:54:30.760 --> 00:54:32.320
was a time when I was cutting my toe now

633
00:54:32.480 --> 00:54:35.719
was way too often, which I said that led to

634
00:54:35.760 --> 00:54:40.280
me basically messing my toes up. But they're fine now

635
00:54:40.320 --> 00:54:46.280
I don't have that problem anymore. So Hope, that was

636
00:54:46.320 --> 00:54:50.400
Hope's question, real question. What was your favorite song in

637
00:54:50.440 --> 00:54:57.119
the eighties? I have two favorite songs from the eighties.

638
00:55:01.079 --> 00:55:08.239
It's a hard one. That's hard because let's say go

639
00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:16.599
through the eighties. It depends when you ask me. I mean,

640
00:55:16.639 --> 00:55:19.599
I know you're asking me now. If you'd have asked

641
00:55:19.679 --> 00:55:29.679
me in nineteen eighty six or eighty five or nineteen

642
00:55:29.800 --> 00:55:34.079
eighty nine, I would have given you different questions. I've

643
00:55:34.079 --> 00:55:36.559
given you a different answer. Sorry. So if you'd have

644
00:55:36.599 --> 00:55:40.199
asked me nineteen eighty nine, I very likely would have

645
00:55:40.239 --> 00:55:45.000
told you that Like a Prayer was positively my favorite

646
00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:49.679
song of the Night of the eighties. But then if

647
00:55:49.760 --> 00:55:56.519
you booh, you know, it depends. But there's two songs

648
00:55:56.559 --> 00:56:03.599
that really shine of all the others. Kind of a

649
00:56:03.679 --> 00:56:07.639
nostalgic reason, and I kind of it reminds me a

650
00:56:07.639 --> 00:56:10.320
little bit of when I was in hospital with my appendix.

651
00:56:12.280 --> 00:56:15.519
And those two songs are Men at Work down Under

652
00:56:16.360 --> 00:56:21.599
and totally Clips of the Heart Body Tyler. She also

653
00:56:21.679 --> 00:56:28.039
did a song called what did She? What was it?

654
00:56:28.760 --> 00:56:34.639
We don't need another hero, We don't need another lasso? No?

655
00:56:34.800 --> 00:56:39.400
That was Tina Turner. Was it? There's a hero? No,

656
00:56:39.519 --> 00:56:45.199
that's Miya Kerry. I'm looking out, I'm looking on for

657
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:48.400
a hero. I'm looking at her a ball to do

658
00:56:48.559 --> 00:56:51.519
the end of the night. You gotta be strong and

659
00:56:51.639 --> 00:56:54.559
his guard would be tough, and his guard to being

660
00:56:54.639 --> 00:56:58.119
the fide. I need a hero. That one here, that's

661
00:56:58.119 --> 00:57:06.239
Bonnie Tyler. So I am all of those. Those two

662
00:57:06.440 --> 00:57:14.679
songs totally Clips at the Heart and Man down Under. Yeah,

663
00:57:14.920 --> 00:57:19.639
that they're the two songs that probably are two of

664
00:57:19.639 --> 00:57:27.440
my favorite songs if I kind of look from a distance, However,

665
00:57:28.079 --> 00:57:29.920
if I was going to go a little bit closer,

666
00:57:31.039 --> 00:57:37.760
a little bit, a little bit closer in probably my

667
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:46.480
favorite singer was Shaken Stevens, but I liked so many,

668
00:57:46.719 --> 00:57:49.960
Like one of my favorite songs would be The Tide

669
00:57:50.079 --> 00:57:56.800
Is High by Blondie. Absolutely love, Blondie, Love Dlow, And

670
00:57:58.599 --> 00:58:01.880
I was a big fan of a lot of the

671
00:58:01.920 --> 00:58:06.719
songs and the bands from the early eighties, late seventies,

672
00:58:06.760 --> 00:58:10.159
early eighties because it was a crossover there. It wasn't there.

673
00:58:10.239 --> 00:58:14.960
I mean, the music didn't change on a January the

674
00:58:15.000 --> 00:58:18.800
first nineteen eighties. From you know, the seventies, there was

675
00:58:18.840 --> 00:58:23.000
a All the big acts in the early eighties were

676
00:58:23.559 --> 00:58:28.760
pretty much from the late seventies. Well it started down

677
00:58:28.800 --> 00:58:47.920
in the seventies, so I would say ver nineteen eighties Wham.

678
00:58:48.119 --> 00:58:55.880
I loved the Wham songs what's his name? I Wall,

679
00:58:56.039 --> 00:59:00.599
let the Sun Go down on and Mell then go

680
00:59:01.000 --> 00:59:05.159
down Nick Kershaw and Nick Kershell is one of my

681
00:59:05.199 --> 00:59:11.840
favorite singers as well. For a while, you know, I

682
00:59:11.960 --> 00:59:18.519
liked lots of like you know, the Queen Queen, especially

683
00:59:18.599 --> 00:59:28.719
the soundtrack to Flash Gordon Brilliant and that's one of

684
00:59:28.719 --> 00:59:32.480
my favorite movies. And I forget about that. I was

685
00:59:32.519 --> 00:59:34.760
thinking the other day. It's another one that I completely

686
00:59:34.840 --> 00:59:37.239
forget when I talk about about my favorite movies of

687
00:59:37.280 --> 00:59:43.480
all time, Roadhouse. So I generally just go with It's

688
00:59:43.480 --> 00:59:46.119
a Wonderful Life. That's my favorite movie, which I'm still

689
00:59:46.159 --> 00:59:50.320
going to stick with It's my favorite all time movie.

690
00:59:50.960 --> 00:59:56.280
But I also love Roadhouse, I love Flash Gordon, I

691
00:59:56.320 --> 01:00:01.880
love Greece because of the feel good, the feel goodedness

692
01:00:02.039 --> 01:00:12.039
of it. They were just fun, fun movies, and I'd

693
01:00:12.119 --> 01:00:22.519
say all of those movies were iconic in their own way.

694
01:00:22.559 --> 01:00:24.519
But yeah, if you get me talking about movies, I

695
01:00:24.559 --> 01:00:27.800
can talk for hours because there's so many different types

696
01:00:27.840 --> 01:00:30.719
of movies I like and have liked over the years,

697
01:00:31.679 --> 01:00:43.920
especially comedies. And I wasn't gonna say yeah, so so

698
01:00:43.960 --> 01:00:49.719
I don't have one favorite song from the eighties, but

699
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:56.719
I do, however, have they would kind of be two

700
01:00:56.760 --> 01:01:02.119
of my favorite songs. But then, if we were going

701
01:01:02.199 --> 01:01:05.800
to look at Shaking Stevens, one of my favorite songs

702
01:01:05.800 --> 01:01:09.159
that he did was It's Raining and it was it

703
01:01:09.199 --> 01:01:12.920
went like eartering and saw her looks like it's got

704
01:01:13.320 --> 01:01:18.039
real noo see. I love, really loved that song and

705
01:01:18.119 --> 01:01:20.360
the Merry. I like the Christmas song that he did

706
01:01:20.679 --> 01:01:34.119
Mary Christmas. Everyone. I'm just trying to think this this

707
01:01:34.679 --> 01:01:38.519
it's a ten year period. It's a long time to

708
01:01:38.679 --> 01:01:45.320
choose just one song. Yeah, I struggle with that. If

709
01:01:45.360 --> 01:01:50.480
I'm honest, I mean, I would actually say that totally

710
01:01:50.480 --> 01:01:57.719
Eclipse of the Heart and down Under too of my

711
01:01:59.280 --> 01:02:04.360
favoritest song was ever But then if I go to

712
01:02:04.400 --> 01:02:08.440
the nineties, I have nothing, is that I have nothing.

713
01:02:08.719 --> 01:02:13.079
Whitney Houston The Bodyguard. I just fell in love with

714
01:02:13.119 --> 01:02:16.920
that song the second I heard it, like within seconds

715
01:02:16.960 --> 01:02:19.239
of listening. I just fell in love with that song.

716
01:02:20.960 --> 01:02:23.320
I prefer I liked it way more than the I

717
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:26.920
Will Always Know, I Will Always Love You or whatever

718
01:02:26.920 --> 01:02:30.440
it's called, you know, the big one that she did.

719
01:02:33.360 --> 01:02:36.320
And I hadn't seen the movie, so I got the

720
01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:45.880
I got like a bootleg tape of it. Of the album,

721
01:02:46.039 --> 01:02:48.719
I think it was a pound or two pound, something

722
01:02:48.760 --> 01:02:53.000
like that, and I just love like that. I think

723
01:02:53.039 --> 01:02:56.639
the cover was in black and white printed obviously on

724
01:02:56.760 --> 01:03:06.000
a probably photocops, but really I love that. It's like wow.

725
01:03:07.519 --> 01:03:09.920
And there's some songs even in the eighties. I remember

726
01:03:09.960 --> 01:03:15.039
there was a song meat Loaf and share I Don't

727
01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:21.320
Know What to Do, where they're in a bar singing.

728
01:03:22.239 --> 01:03:23.440
Since ad Do, I've.

729
01:03:23.280 --> 01:03:25.519

Rock and the Cool Book a Boo that one. And

734
01:03:40.400 --> 01:03:42.320
I remember waking up to that because I used to

735
01:03:42.320 --> 01:03:44.199
have a radio when I was a kid at school.

736
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:47.119
I didn't carry around at school, that would be weird,

737
01:03:48.039 --> 01:03:52.960
but I had a radio, like a clock radio next

738
01:03:53.000 --> 01:03:55.760
to my bed and wake me up because I you know,

739
01:03:55.840 --> 01:04:01.280
I had paper rounds and various different part time jobs

740
01:04:01.320 --> 01:04:08.000
over the years when I was at school and it

741
01:04:08.239 --> 01:04:19.480
was what was it? It was something? I yeah, I

742
01:04:19.559 --> 01:04:22.920
woke up to that song. I remember, this is weird.

743
01:04:23.000 --> 01:04:24.679
I remember that. I don't know what year it was,

744
01:04:25.519 --> 01:04:29.159
but I remember waking up to it and like, I

745
01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:34.920
loved it. I hadn't seen the video. I didn't. I

746
01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:38.000
mean MTV was around, but I didn't have access to it.

747
01:04:39.360 --> 01:04:41.760
It wasn't really on the normal channels. I think you

748
01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:44.880
had to get satellite to get hold of things like that.

749
01:04:46.199 --> 01:04:49.199
And that's back in the day when MTV, which I

750
01:04:49.320 --> 01:04:55.159
do believe stands for Music Television, actually had music on it.

751
01:04:56.719 --> 01:04:59.400
I mean, just change your name, baby, change your name.

752
01:04:59.599 --> 01:05:01.840
If you're going to have videos anymore, change the name.

753
01:05:02.480 --> 01:05:06.519
Don't don't what what's with the like it's now just

754
01:05:06.679 --> 01:05:10.920
reality programs on there. As far as my way. I mean,

755
01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:15.840
I haven't watched it for years, but it was MTV

756
01:05:16.400 --> 01:05:23.559
changed the music industry. It made it more available, not

757
01:05:23.679 --> 01:05:28.519
to people in England unfortunately, but it paved the way

758
01:05:29.719 --> 01:05:32.599
it kind of got. Acts started to make videos and

759
01:05:32.639 --> 01:05:36.440
putting a bit more effort into the videos, which everyone

760
01:05:36.519 --> 01:05:40.159
got to see because I imagine every every country had

761
01:05:40.199 --> 01:05:46.599
their own music show on television that showed the videos.

762
01:05:47.880 --> 01:05:50.840
Our one was Top of the Pops, which was the

763
01:05:50.920 --> 01:05:55.480
biggest music show in the country that was on a

764
01:05:55.639 --> 01:05:59.280
Thursday night. I do agree if I believe. Yeah, it

765
01:05:59.360 --> 01:06:02.400
was on a Thursday day night for the whole of

766
01:06:02.480 --> 01:06:05.679
the eighties. It was on in the nineties and the

767
01:06:05.760 --> 01:06:08.199
two thousands as well, but it hasn't been on for years.

768
01:06:08.400 --> 01:06:10.480
It's on in the seventies and the sixties. It's a

769
01:06:10.599 --> 01:06:16.320
very long running show. But then there was some other

770
01:06:16.440 --> 01:06:19.000
video and there's other shows came on music shows that

771
01:06:19.079 --> 01:06:24.440
showed videos, but we didn't get MTV, not unless you

772
01:06:24.480 --> 01:06:28.519
had a satellite. And I think in the nineties when

773
01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:32.159
Sky came up, or the late eighties, s Guy came

774
01:06:32.199 --> 01:06:36.559
along giving people satellites and you could watch TV programs

775
01:06:36.639 --> 01:06:41.880
and TV channels from other countries I did. I never

776
01:06:41.920 --> 01:06:43.920
had access to it, so I never got to see it.

777
01:06:44.440 --> 01:06:47.400
I knew what it was, I know what MTV was,

778
01:06:47.679 --> 01:06:51.679
but I didn't I didn't get to see it. I mean,

779
01:06:51.920 --> 01:07:01.239
I still remember when Michael Jackson released his thriller song

780
01:07:01.719 --> 01:07:05.000
thriller video, you know, the big, the long video of

781
01:07:05.159 --> 01:07:08.039
him where he's a werewolf and all that stuff, and

782
01:07:08.119 --> 01:07:11.960
he's in the cinema and eating popcorn and stuff, you

783
01:07:11.960 --> 01:07:16.440
remember that, and wearing a red, red leather jacket. And

784
01:07:19.119 --> 01:07:21.000
I was allowed to stay up late to watch that,

785
01:07:21.559 --> 01:07:25.280
and I was on Channel four at that time. Channel

786
01:07:25.320 --> 01:07:28.159
four was quite a new channel, and then a little

787
01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:30.920
bit irreverent, you know, a little bit, a little bit,

788
01:07:31.360 --> 01:07:33.719
a little bit dangerous, a little bit ooh, a little

789
01:07:33.719 --> 01:07:37.480
bit r And before that we just had three channels,

790
01:07:37.679 --> 01:07:42.679
BBC one, BBC two, ITV. So I'm pretty sure during

791
01:07:42.760 --> 01:07:46.599
my lifetime there was three channels. And then in nineteen

792
01:07:47.239 --> 01:07:51.599
I think eighty might be an eighty one, but I

793
01:07:51.639 --> 01:07:56.000
think it was eighty. Channel four came along, and then

794
01:07:56.360 --> 01:08:07.840
in nineteen ninety five, no, nineteen ninety seven, nineteen ninety seven,

795
01:08:09.400 --> 01:08:19.680
we had Channel five. I remember seeing that being launched.

796
01:08:19.720 --> 01:08:23.199
I watched it as it was being launched, because I'm

797
01:08:23.279 --> 01:08:25.640
not sure if I got to see Channel four be launched.

798
01:08:27.800 --> 01:08:30.359
I mean those were the days. You know, if you've

799
01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:33.600
only got like three channels or four channels, when you

800
01:08:33.680 --> 01:08:37.079
get a fifth channel launched, it's a big deal. But

801
01:08:37.239 --> 01:08:39.600
if you're used to having well like we do now

802
01:08:40.399 --> 01:08:44.000
we have I don't know know how many. There are

803
01:08:45.520 --> 01:08:47.840
loads and loads and loads and loads and loads and

804
01:08:47.920 --> 01:08:51.920
loads and loads of channels. It's not a big deal anymore.

805
01:08:52.960 --> 01:08:57.479
I mean ITV is now called ITV one, there's ITV two,

806
01:08:58.760 --> 01:09:03.199
BBC one still be bb and you got BBC two.

807
01:09:03.239 --> 01:09:05.640
You've got BBC three now, or you used to have

808
01:09:05.720 --> 01:09:08.840
BBC three. I think they got rid of it. Channel four,

809
01:09:09.079 --> 01:09:14.119
Channel five, and then loads of others. But Channel five launched,

810
01:09:14.399 --> 01:09:19.760
and someone I knew was actually launching it, like Tim Vine,

811
01:09:19.920 --> 01:09:22.439
who was a commedity. He is a comedian who I

812
01:09:22.560 --> 01:09:28.119
was friends with. He actually was the star of He

813
01:09:28.279 --> 01:09:31.399
was almost like the face of Channel five when it launched.

814
01:09:33.560 --> 01:09:35.880
It was so exciting and there was other comedians on

815
01:09:36.039 --> 01:09:41.359
there and it was, yeah, brilliant. I'd like to rewatch that. Actually,

816
01:09:41.359 --> 01:09:45.600
I wonder if it's on YouTube. Channel five Launch Launch Night,

817
01:09:46.760 --> 01:09:52.079
it might be. You know, I'm going to check that out.

818
01:09:54.680 --> 01:10:01.800
And yes, I don't have I don't have one favorite

819
01:10:01.960 --> 01:10:10.800
song in the eighties. I'm not going to say that all.

820
01:10:13.199 --> 01:10:14.880
I don't want to get stuck in the eighties. I

821
01:10:14.880 --> 01:10:16.279
don't want to get stuck. I don't want to be

822
01:10:18.199 --> 01:10:21.600
like that where I'm stuck in one decade. But the

823
01:10:21.680 --> 01:10:24.880
eighties was my decade. Really. It was like from the

824
01:10:24.920 --> 01:10:28.920
age of ten to twenty the eighties, but then between

825
01:10:28.960 --> 01:10:32.840
twenty and thirty was also my decade, the nineties because

826
01:10:32.880 --> 01:10:35.239
you know, I was very aware of the music during

827
01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:37.600
that period as well. Plus I was a DJ for

828
01:10:37.640 --> 01:10:40.359
the last part of the nineties, so I was, you know,

829
01:10:40.760 --> 01:10:45.840
have my finger on the well. I was kind of

830
01:10:46.119 --> 01:10:49.840
aware of what was what was popular at the time,

831
01:10:51.039 --> 01:10:57.079
not just what I liked. And then when we moved

832
01:10:57.119 --> 01:11:00.680
into the two thousands, you know, I had albums that

833
01:11:00.720 --> 01:11:07.800
I liked, but I kind of drifted a bit away

834
01:11:07.840 --> 01:11:14.640
from music. Thanks Fanny for flapping your ears twoy tens,

835
01:11:15.760 --> 01:11:22.039
Not really much. I just I've lost I've lost my

836
01:11:22.199 --> 01:11:27.399
way with music, with modern music, and that's really said that.

837
01:11:27.479 --> 01:11:30.960
I'm saying. Modern music makes me really feel old, just

838
01:11:31.079 --> 01:11:36.239
saying it out loud, but I'm not. I don't want

839
01:11:36.279 --> 01:11:40.439
to be the person that says all music's hasn't been

840
01:11:40.479 --> 01:11:44.039
a decent music. It isn't decent songs since nineteen eighty nine.

841
01:11:44.119 --> 01:11:46.840
You know. I don't want to be that person because

842
01:11:46.840 --> 01:11:49.760
it's not true. There's some great songs out now. I

843
01:11:49.880 --> 01:11:53.920
just haven't heard them, and millions of people are loving

844
01:11:54.000 --> 01:11:58.000
listening to them, so they can't. They've got to be good.

845
01:11:58.119 --> 01:12:02.079
I just may not be able to. I might not

846
01:12:02.239 --> 01:12:04.279
relate to some of the music, but I can't. I

847
01:12:04.359 --> 01:12:07.239
don't think I've ever related to anything I've listened to ever. Anyway.

848
01:12:09.840 --> 01:12:14.119
Did you hear a go down under? We're women all andunder?

849
01:12:14.840 --> 01:12:15.760
I can relate to that.

850
01:12:17.479 --> 01:12:21.039
Turn around even now and then A get a little

851
01:12:21.119 --> 01:12:24.359
bit man, a good and never woon around turn around?

852
01:12:25.039 --> 01:12:26.479
I couldn't relate to that. I don't know what they

853
01:12:26.479 --> 01:12:31.880
were singing about love song. I think, you know, I

854
01:12:32.079 --> 01:12:35.359
just I didn't listen to the lyrics. I just which

855
01:12:35.520 --> 01:12:38.319
evident because I don't remember them. I just if I

856
01:12:38.479 --> 01:12:43.199
liked a song, I like it. It almost doesn't even

857
01:12:43.239 --> 01:12:45.079
matter if it's in English or not. If I like

858
01:12:45.159 --> 01:12:50.279
a song, then it's because of the sound, because of

859
01:12:50.439 --> 01:12:54.760
the vocals, maybe because of the music. I don't know.

860
01:12:54.880 --> 01:12:58.239
It could be any any number of reasons, but I

861
01:12:58.319 --> 01:13:03.479
don't have to know the reason behind a song. Like

862
01:13:03.640 --> 01:13:06.640
my friend Luke, he used to listen to lyrics and

863
01:13:06.760 --> 01:13:09.199
he'd say, listen to lyrics. I said, I know this song.

864
01:13:09.600 --> 01:13:11.199
He said, but if you listen to the lyrics, I

865
01:13:11.279 --> 01:13:15.319
said no, but you've listened to this song for twenty years.

866
01:13:15.600 --> 01:13:18.000
I said, I don't know. You don't know what he's

867
01:13:18.279 --> 01:13:21.479
singing about. I said, no, no idea. I just like

868
01:13:21.560 --> 01:13:24.239
the song. He could be singing in Arabic would make

869
01:13:24.319 --> 01:13:28.199
no difference to me. It's almost like I don't take

870
01:13:28.239 --> 01:13:31.880
any notice of what's being said. Sometimes it's almost like

871
01:13:31.920 --> 01:13:37.159
a conversation with another person. And you wonder why I

872
01:13:37.279 --> 01:13:41.119
stopped being a counselor. Wow, I used to be a

873
01:13:42.039 --> 01:13:44.640
I think I was quite a good counselor. I tell

874
01:13:44.640 --> 01:13:47.880
you the one thing. I came from an angle which

875
01:13:48.199 --> 01:13:52.920
a lot of other counselors possibly don't, and it's like

876
01:13:53.000 --> 01:13:57.279
a non human angle. It's quite normal for people. I've

877
01:13:57.439 --> 01:14:02.039
noticed two all my is to feel that maybe they

878
01:14:02.239 --> 01:14:09.359
know stuff and that they're the expert, and I've noticed

879
01:14:09.399 --> 01:14:11.640
that in life, and as with a counselor's like, you

880
01:14:11.720 --> 01:14:14.880
know all, I've got a degree, therefore I know about counseling,

881
01:14:14.960 --> 01:14:19.920
and which is true, they do as I did. But

882
01:14:20.039 --> 01:14:22.359
the fact is it didn't mean that I knew about

883
01:14:22.399 --> 01:14:26.479
the person in front of me, And no amount of

884
01:14:26.560 --> 01:14:30.880
degrees was really going to give that, or maybe you could.

885
01:14:30.920 --> 01:14:34.359
I just didn't have the natural ability to know. So

886
01:14:34.520 --> 01:14:39.000
what I did is because I didn't understand. I've never

887
01:14:39.159 --> 01:14:44.960
really understood anyone, just you know, the automatic, Oh, I

888
01:14:45.039 --> 01:14:49.439
get what that person's about. I understand where you're coming from. No,

889
01:14:49.720 --> 01:14:53.800
I don't, and I'll admit which a lot of people

890
01:14:53.840 --> 01:14:56.520
I've never known anyone to admit. I'll admit I don't

891
01:14:56.840 --> 01:15:05.680
understand people. But in that situation, I would try to

892
01:15:05.840 --> 01:15:10.399
understand the person. And that's what made me a little

893
01:15:10.399 --> 01:15:14.399
bit different from perhaps some of the other counselors. I'm

894
01:15:14.439 --> 01:15:22.479
not saying better, just different is I didn't understand their situation.

895
01:15:23.039 --> 01:15:25.680
Why you gotta eat treats now while I'm doing this.

896
01:15:26.880 --> 01:15:30.359
I didn't understand them or their situation, So they had

897
01:15:30.439 --> 01:15:33.520
to explain it to me, and by explaining it to me,

898
01:15:35.399 --> 01:15:39.720
we both kind of got to understand what was going on,

899
01:15:41.359 --> 01:15:46.960
because it was almost I suppose for them, I wasn't

900
01:15:49.319 --> 01:15:53.199
he's hungry now, he wants his dinner now. It was

901
01:15:53.399 --> 01:15:59.720
almost that we were talking two different languages and they

902
01:15:59.720 --> 01:16:03.159
were trying to explain in a different language my language,

903
01:16:04.680 --> 01:16:09.479
what exactly they wanted to order. You know, I guess

904
01:16:09.520 --> 01:16:12.279
it's a little bit like being me being a call

905
01:16:12.399 --> 01:16:18.000
center operator and then phoning up their bank and they're

906
01:16:18.000 --> 01:16:21.359
getting through to me, whose my first language is a

907
01:16:21.399 --> 01:16:25.000
completely different language, and they're trying to kind of understand

908
01:16:25.039 --> 01:16:28.840
what I'm saying to them, which means I have to

909
01:16:29.000 --> 01:16:33.079
concentrate more. Will you? Will you please get off me?

910
01:16:37.319 --> 01:16:44.199
And because I came from a non a non knowing,

911
01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:47.760
I really wish it could. Could you just lay down there? Please?

912
01:16:47.840 --> 01:16:51.039
May please? Sorry, Linny, you're not This is not the

913
01:16:51.159 --> 01:16:55.079
right time for you to be standing on the laptop. No,

914
01:16:56.039 --> 01:17:06.359
there's no good time for you to stand on a laptop. Really. Yes, yeah,

915
01:17:06.439 --> 01:17:08.720
that's kind of the way I went with that, in

916
01:17:08.840 --> 01:17:19.920
a sense of I didn't have preconceived opinions about someone,

917
01:17:21.319 --> 01:17:27.920
and I learned about them from them from what they said,

918
01:17:28.960 --> 01:17:32.399
rather than from what I was just thinking in my

919
01:17:32.479 --> 01:17:37.520
own head. Yeah, I seem to do quite well for

920
01:17:38.000 --> 01:17:42.880
a while, seem yeah, I think so, I don't know.

921
01:17:43.239 --> 01:17:45.880
I always promised myself when I was training that if

922
01:17:45.920 --> 01:17:48.960
I was no good, I would quit. Now I did quit,

923
01:17:49.960 --> 01:17:53.079
but only quit because there was no work because of

924
01:17:53.239 --> 01:17:57.880
the basically government cuts. So I went from I think

925
01:17:58.159 --> 01:18:03.239
sixteen hours a week to three, which or four, which

926
01:18:03.399 --> 01:18:07.319
wasn't as like one hundred pounds a week, which is

927
01:18:07.439 --> 01:18:12.319
not Liverpool amount, which I ended up working in the

928
01:18:12.399 --> 01:18:17.199
course center. Again blind me. I haven't really answered your question.

929
01:18:17.279 --> 01:18:22.960
I hope haven't. I probably about two hundred and twenty

930
01:18:23.199 --> 01:18:26.439
nine times I cut my toenails. I don't know, maybe

931
01:18:26.600 --> 01:18:29.920
more because that might be just discussed inside, maybe thousands

932
01:18:32.319 --> 01:18:35.680
a million times. Now. Barry asked me, have you ever

933
01:18:35.760 --> 01:18:39.159
been fishing? And I have? I have, I have, I have.

934
01:18:39.760 --> 01:18:44.920
I wish I hadn't, but I have. It was the

935
01:18:45.119 --> 01:18:52.000
coldest I have ever been in my entire life. And

936
01:18:52.079 --> 01:18:54.439
I don't know why I wanted to do it. I

937
01:18:54.560 --> 01:19:00.680
got no, there's no logical reason for it. I just

938
01:19:00.960 --> 01:19:06.079
had this this idea because I used to live there

939
01:19:06.159 --> 01:19:10.239
was a peer, and because on the beach I do

940
01:19:10.399 --> 01:19:13.039
miss the beach. To be honest, it wasn't very good beach,

941
01:19:13.199 --> 01:19:20.000
but I just liked having the sea and yeah, it

942
01:19:20.119 --> 01:19:22.119
was just something nice about being able to look out

943
01:19:22.199 --> 01:19:28.760
the sea. And I'll tell you what, regardless of what

944
01:19:29.079 --> 01:19:34.399
anyone's political opinions are, there's a certain very famous politician

945
01:19:34.640 --> 01:19:39.800
that visited this country recently and they said that this

946
01:19:39.960 --> 01:19:43.479
person said that the problem with our beaches is the wind.

947
01:19:43.640 --> 01:19:49.640
Those windmill electric windmill things are just plain ugly and

948
01:19:49.800 --> 01:19:57.960
they are ruined every ruined the seaside. I think they're horrible.

949
01:19:58.840 --> 01:20:10.479
I know they need did perhaps, but so perhaps moaning

950
01:20:10.520 --> 01:20:13.800
about windmills now they're not windmills iday whatever they calld

951
01:20:13.880 --> 01:20:17.640
you know those things, the electric things that go around

952
01:20:20.319 --> 01:20:24.399
that is horrible. They had him like twenty years ago.

953
01:20:24.479 --> 01:20:27.479
I went to Lower Stuffed to do a reflex ology

954
01:20:27.560 --> 01:20:31.159
course and they had them there was horrible. I really

955
01:20:31.359 --> 01:20:37.159
like get rid of that thing. Man. It's just because

956
01:20:37.159 --> 01:20:40.680
we're such a tiny country and our beaches are small.

957
01:20:41.760 --> 01:20:44.520
The sea. I'm not saying all beaches small, but you know,

958
01:20:46.199 --> 01:20:48.239
it's nice to go to look. One of the things

959
01:20:48.279 --> 01:20:53.439
I liked about the sea is the quietness, or maybe

960
01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:56.319
just being able to hit the waves. It's windy. On

961
01:20:56.439 --> 01:20:59.479
a really windy day, no one's around during the winter.

962
01:20:59.600 --> 01:21:03.079
You can just walk around and it's quite nice and

963
01:21:03.319 --> 01:21:07.840
have a little paddle. But to be able to look

964
01:21:08.000 --> 01:21:11.640
out to the sea and not have anything obstructing your

965
01:21:11.720 --> 01:21:15.119
vision is nice. I like that. When I was young,

966
01:21:15.199 --> 01:21:19.560
guys really liked that. It was quite nice to think

967
01:21:19.640 --> 01:21:22.119
as well, just to walk on a promenade and just

968
01:21:23.039 --> 01:21:27.800
have a little think. So for some reason, I was

969
01:21:27.880 --> 01:21:33.720
probably about thirteen at this time, I bought a fishing

970
01:21:33.800 --> 01:21:37.680
mod all the fishing equipment from nigh, my friend's dad.

971
01:21:38.760 --> 01:21:45.079
I don't know why, but I did it. And it

972
01:21:45.319 --> 01:21:51.920
was the coldest, windiest, rainiest, freezing cold day in the

973
01:21:52.119 --> 01:21:56.960
history of mankind. I'm not dressed for it. I've got

974
01:21:57.039 --> 01:21:59.199
my Parker on, but I'm not dressed. I don't have

975
01:21:59.680 --> 01:22:03.520
the clothing. I have the proper equipment, but not the

976
01:22:03.560 --> 01:22:08.399
proper clothing. And on the hill down they sold bait

977
01:22:08.520 --> 01:22:10.640
and stuff, so I got some bait on the way there,

978
01:22:10.760 --> 01:22:13.319
and I didn't really know what I was doing. But

979
01:22:13.640 --> 01:22:21.800
I spent years ice cream man so loud. I spent

980
01:22:22.119 --> 01:22:26.359
years doing going on to the pier and talking to

981
01:22:26.399 --> 01:22:28.960
the people fishing, so I kind of had a little

982
01:22:29.039 --> 01:22:31.479
I knew my way around it a little bit because

983
01:22:31.479 --> 01:22:33.960
we'll just chat with them, because that's what fishermen doing it.

984
01:22:34.000 --> 01:22:37.640
They're fishing. Once they've kind of put the thing off

985
01:22:37.920 --> 01:22:40.439
the pier, once they've chucked it out, they're just sitting

986
01:22:40.520 --> 01:22:43.319
there most of the time. So they talked to us,

987
01:22:43.439 --> 01:22:48.319
and you know, yeah, so I kind of kind of

988
01:22:48.359 --> 01:22:50.159
got to know a little bit how they were doing stuff.

989
01:22:50.239 --> 01:22:53.239
Sometimes i'd look after the after their rods when they

990
01:22:53.319 --> 01:22:56.279
went to the toilet and things like that, or went

991
01:22:56.359 --> 01:22:58.159
to get sant to eat because the peer had like

992
01:22:58.239 --> 01:23:02.159
a canteen or rearrested thing on there. So, you know,

993
01:23:02.279 --> 01:23:05.760
I thought maybe I'd like to do it myself. On

994
01:23:05.880 --> 01:23:09.439
this occasion, there was no one else there, no one there,

995
01:23:10.359 --> 01:23:13.119
just me, and I really thought I was going to

996
01:23:13.199 --> 01:23:15.119
get blown out to see. And at one point I

997
01:23:15.199 --> 01:23:17.239
thought getting blown out to see would be much more

998
01:23:17.359 --> 01:23:21.239
enjoyable than standing on that pier with my fishing rod.

999
01:23:22.760 --> 01:23:25.079
Bearing in mind I can't even swim. Just tells you

1000
01:23:25.159 --> 01:23:30.760
how much fun I was having. I came home, I

1001
01:23:30.920 --> 01:23:33.880
carried the stuff. I don't know why I should have

1002
01:23:33.960 --> 01:23:35.640
just left the stuff on the pier, but I didn't.

1003
01:23:35.920 --> 01:23:47.680
I carried it home and I could not believe how

1004
01:23:47.800 --> 01:23:53.319
cold I was. I got home eventually, and I'll admit

1005
01:23:53.760 --> 01:23:56.600
I didn't live far away. Honestly, it was like upper

1006
01:23:56.680 --> 01:23:59.600
Hill and up the road. It wasn't a long distance

1007
01:24:00.399 --> 01:24:06.800
twenty minutes maybe if that. And I was so cold

1008
01:24:06.920 --> 01:24:09.319
and that was never ever going to do that again.

1009
01:24:09.600 --> 01:24:13.359
I never have. And the next day I took the rods,

1010
01:24:13.960 --> 01:24:18.039
all the stuff back to my dad's my friend's dad's place,

1011
01:24:19.479 --> 01:24:21.800
and he said, I'm not buying them back off here.

1012
01:24:21.800 --> 01:24:23.840
I said, I don't care take them back. I don't

1013
01:24:23.840 --> 01:24:29.000
want him. So he got to sell them twice. He

1014
01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:31.359
couldn't believe it, he said that. I said, I don't.

1015
01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:34.600
I don't want to want to see him again. He said,

1016
01:24:34.640 --> 01:24:37.479
you already bought him a day ago. I said, yeah,

1017
01:24:37.560 --> 01:24:43.920
I know. There you go to Rah to Tyre. And

1018
01:24:44.039 --> 01:24:46.279
that was it. That was the end of my fishing career.

1019
01:24:47.239 --> 01:24:52.560
Now Luke downstairs, he loved fishing, that was his favorite thing.

1020
01:24:54.720 --> 01:24:58.720
But he kept asking me come fishing with me, and

1021
01:24:58.960 --> 01:25:01.159
he liked to do it on late and pond not

1022
01:25:01.319 --> 01:25:04.920
pondst in lakes and stuff, you know, rivers and stuff.

1023
01:25:04.960 --> 01:25:08.760
He didn't do it off of any peers. I don't

1024
01:25:08.800 --> 01:25:10.399
think he might have done in the past, but we

1025
01:25:10.479 --> 01:25:14.600
don't have that around here. And I kept saying no, Now.

1026
01:25:14.720 --> 01:25:17.439
I bought him fishing equipment, rods and all kinds of

1027
01:25:17.479 --> 01:25:21.359
stuff so that he could go, because I thought it

1028
01:25:21.439 --> 01:25:23.439
was important that he went and done something he wanted

1029
01:25:23.479 --> 01:25:26.039
to do. He got him out and gave him an

1030
01:25:26.079 --> 01:25:31.119
interest because he loved doing that, but he just didn't

1031
01:25:31.119 --> 01:25:34.439
want to go on his own. And he's like, well,

1032
01:25:34.479 --> 01:25:38.479
please come with me. I said, no, that's the I

1033
01:25:38.640 --> 01:25:42.000
just can't think of it. It's not something I'm ever

1034
01:25:42.079 --> 01:25:45.159
going to do. I'm never going to go fishing ever,

1035
01:25:46.279 --> 01:25:49.920
apart from the fact that I'm not really as I

1036
01:25:49.960 --> 01:25:52.359
got older, fishing doesn't really appeal to me on different

1037
01:25:52.399 --> 01:26:00.199
levels as well. But I'm never outside of survival. Not

1038
01:26:00.319 --> 01:26:05.319
go fishing ain't gonna happen. But what if you had

1039
01:26:05.359 --> 01:26:09.359
a What if your grandson became a fisher person and

1040
01:26:09.439 --> 01:26:11.079
he loved it and he wanted you to go with him,

1041
01:26:11.079 --> 01:26:13.479
wanted his granddad to go with him. I haven't got

1042
01:26:13.520 --> 01:26:19.079
any grand kids, so it's not gonna happen in that situation,

1043
01:26:19.359 --> 01:26:21.960
then yeah, I probably would go, you know what I mean.

1044
01:26:22.079 --> 01:26:25.760
It's just I'm sure if my dad said, oh, please

1045
01:26:26.760 --> 01:26:29.560
come fishing with me and your little brother, you know,

1046
01:26:29.840 --> 01:26:32.199
it's just to be really nice if we can just

1047
01:26:32.960 --> 01:26:35.880
have the weekend away together. And we've never done anything

1048
01:26:35.960 --> 01:26:40.119
like this before, and I wouldn't want to go, but

1049
01:26:40.199 --> 01:26:42.319
I probably would go because it's my dad, it's my

1050
01:26:42.399 --> 01:26:47.399
little brother, and it's a one off situation. But it'd

1051
01:26:47.439 --> 01:26:50.720
have to be warm, it'd have to be summer, and

1052
01:26:51.039 --> 01:26:53.560
if we're staying in tents, he'd have to put the

1053
01:26:53.640 --> 01:26:59.520
tent up. Ideally it would be in the grounds of

1054
01:26:59.600 --> 01:27:02.720
a hotel. Hell, where we can stay in a hotel.

1055
01:27:03.600 --> 01:27:06.079
I don't want to be camping really, I don't want

1056
01:27:06.079 --> 01:27:15.159
to do no tending. So maybe in that situation I

1057
01:27:15.279 --> 01:27:25.640
could do it. Maybe, But outside of that, and that's

1058
01:27:25.800 --> 01:27:29.119
not going to happen. The chances that my dad phoning

1059
01:27:29.199 --> 01:27:31.880
me up and saying hello, son, that's what he calls me.

1060
01:27:31.960 --> 01:27:35.079
He doesn't know my name, doesn't know any of our names.

1061
01:27:35.159 --> 01:27:39.920
He's causes us all sun It's easy, isn't it. Apart

1062
01:27:39.960 --> 01:27:45.600
from you know, my sister, he calls her daughter, and

1063
01:27:45.760 --> 01:27:49.560
her kid's grandson and granddaughter. He doesn't learn anyone's names,

1064
01:27:51.199 --> 01:27:54.399
and he if he'd, you know, if he did, fine

1065
01:27:54.399 --> 01:27:57.079
out and say, oh, me and your me and your

1066
01:27:57.119 --> 01:28:01.880
brother are going to go out, or me and Sun

1067
01:28:02.079 --> 01:28:06.159
number three four on sudden number three, Yeah, me and

1068
01:28:06.279 --> 01:28:10.960
Sun number three. No, me and Sun number four. I

1069
01:28:11.079 --> 01:28:12.920
want to go fishing. You're going to come with us?

1070
01:28:12.960 --> 01:28:18.399
And I'd say, I'd say no, I'll go on. Please

1071
01:28:19.359 --> 01:28:23.520
be your best friend. I might think, well, maybe, you know,

1072
01:28:26.239 --> 01:28:33.199
but there has to be rules. I'm not going to fish.

1073
01:28:33.359 --> 01:28:36.920
I'll sit there, but I probably won't, you know, I'll

1074
01:28:37.039 --> 01:28:45.680
just just hang around and hotel room during the summer,

1075
01:28:46.479 --> 01:28:51.479
but not not hot summer. I'm not sitting in the sun.

1076
01:28:52.119 --> 01:28:54.479
But it has to be, you know, a good kind

1077
01:28:54.520 --> 01:28:59.600
of weather time. Maybe spring, maybe autumn where it's still

1078
01:28:59.840 --> 01:29:08.199
like fairly mild, you know, and if it rains, got

1079
01:29:08.319 --> 01:29:12.640
shelter but it's not cold. I can't be doing winter.

1080
01:29:13.319 --> 01:29:16.760
Sitting outside in the winter not really my thing. Although

1081
01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:18.680
you know, I've got a bit of flabber now, and

1082
01:29:18.760 --> 01:29:23.880
I bit of flabby blubber on me, which I didn't

1083
01:29:23.920 --> 01:29:29.680
have when I first fished. I probably, I mean I

1084
01:29:29.880 --> 01:29:32.920
was I had just skinned skin and bone. I didn't

1085
01:29:32.960 --> 01:29:37.439
have any weight on me when I was thirteen, so

1086
01:29:37.800 --> 01:29:40.800
perhaps I wouldn't get as cold now as I used to.

1087
01:29:41.399 --> 01:29:45.239
But I've noticed that since last year when I lost

1088
01:29:45.279 --> 01:29:53.000
a stone's fourteen pounds or more. Actually I noticed last

1089
01:29:53.079 --> 01:29:55.439
winter that I could feel the cold a little bit

1090
01:29:55.479 --> 01:29:59.920
more because I didn't have that insulation, that walrus insulation

1091
01:30:00.199 --> 01:30:06.439
that I normally have, my little seal protection. You know,

1092
01:30:06.640 --> 01:30:10.960
the blubber wasn't there. Well, there was less blobber there.

1093
01:30:11.039 --> 01:30:13.800
There's still plenty of blood. There's still plenty there, I'll

1094
01:30:13.800 --> 01:30:21.239
trust me, but it's a lot less because I was

1095
01:30:21.359 --> 01:30:25.279
sixteen stone before, I was about one hundred kilos. Now

1096
01:30:25.359 --> 01:30:29.840
I'm just under fifteen stone, which is probably, I don't know,

1097
01:30:31.119 --> 01:30:39.920
ninety five kilos maybe, so it's a fair fair drop.

1098
01:30:42.560 --> 01:30:44.560
But it really is five percent of my body weight.

1099
01:30:46.680 --> 01:30:52.760
It's quite a big percentage. Isn't it five percent to lose? Yeah,

1100
01:30:53.840 --> 01:30:58.920
that's if it's correct. I don't know, So thank you,

1101
01:30:59.079 --> 01:31:03.079
hope and buried it only two questions, so I didn't

1102
01:31:03.199 --> 01:31:07.840
really have a lot of That's why I've recording is

1103
01:31:07.920 --> 01:31:15.640
so short. It's only ninety two minutes long. Wow, oh dear,

1104
01:31:20.520 --> 01:31:23.199
but thank you, thank you for your messages, thank you

1105
01:31:23.279 --> 01:31:31.359
for your for your questions. So it's half past six.

1106
01:31:32.000 --> 01:31:36.199
Vinnie's not as agitated as he was a few minutes

1107
01:31:36.239 --> 01:31:38.520
ago when he was looking for something to eat. So

1108
01:31:38.720 --> 01:31:43.439
I might go and get his dinner for him, and

1109
01:31:43.600 --> 01:31:49.960
then I'm gonna have to get myself something to eat.

1110
01:31:50.000 --> 01:31:59.159
But I don't know quite what. I don't know what. Well,

1111
01:31:59.159 --> 01:32:02.920
I wonder if that curtain's been delivered yet. It's not

1112
01:32:03.000 --> 01:32:05.640
actually a curtain, but it's it's kind of like a

1113
01:32:08.079 --> 01:32:09.760
I don't know what they call it, like a blanket,

1114
01:32:09.840 --> 01:32:16.199
really heavy duty blanket thing, but I don't know. Apparently

1115
01:32:16.239 --> 01:32:19.720
it's really heavy, according to the reviews, very heavy. So

1116
01:32:21.239 --> 01:32:23.560
I'm going to probably have to get some some kind

1117
01:32:23.600 --> 01:32:28.640
of way of attaching it to the wall, but it

1118
01:32:28.760 --> 01:32:32.760
depends on how big it is. It's got holes in

1119
01:32:32.840 --> 01:32:35.920
the sides of it, so you can put nails or

1120
01:32:36.319 --> 01:32:40.760
like things in, but I don't want it permanently on there.

1121
01:32:40.760 --> 01:32:43.399
I want to be able to lift it up, so

1122
01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:47.239
you know, I don't want to block the window the

1123
01:32:47.279 --> 01:32:57.439
whole time. I will just see when it gets it. Yeah,

1124
01:32:59.159 --> 01:33:00.760
I mean, I could have just looked at how what

1125
01:33:00.920 --> 01:33:04.079
the size was when I purchased it, but I didn't.

1126
01:33:04.680 --> 01:33:06.600
I've also got some toilet role coming as well, but

1127
01:33:06.640 --> 01:33:13.920
I think that's coming tomorrow. Yeah, there's sixty, one hundred

1128
01:33:13.920 --> 01:33:16.960
and twenty packs. I think one hundred and twenty toilet

1129
01:33:17.039 --> 01:33:24.600
roles last ages. They really do. So I'm going to go.

1130
01:33:24.840 --> 01:33:30.840
So thank you very very much for listening. And remember

1131
01:33:30.880 --> 01:33:33.119
to be kind to yourself because you do deserve to

1132
01:33:33.159 --> 01:33:36.520
