00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:10.560
Hello, and welcome to Jason Newland dot com. My name's

2
00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:18.000
Jason new Land. Welcome to Let me boy to sleep.

3
00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:27.760
Please only listen when you're you can safely close your eyes.

4
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:35.719
Thank you for waiting. Your call is important to us.

5
00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:42.840
We love you very very much. Um yeah, let me

6
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:52.799
boy sleep. Hello, Hello, Hello, Hi. I can't believe it's

7
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:55.960
been fairly quiet and suddenly there's drilling going on again.

8
00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:01.000
Damn it, damn, damn, damn. It's eighteen past free. I'm

9
00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:03.640
just going to do the recording anyway. I've been waiting

10
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:08.159
for some quiet moments, but it's a little It's not

11
00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:15.920
like it's not full on, but it's so random. Oh,

12
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:18.120
this is a funny thing that happened yesterday. My neighbor

13
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:23.480
called me. She said, if you've got some building work

14
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:29.560
going on upstairs? And I thought, cheeky mare complaining about

15
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:33.120
the noise I'm making after all the drilling. She's been drilling,

16
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.359
not drilling, but you know, in the bathroom being done

17
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:43.079
this week, all the drilling they do downstairs. And I

18
00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:46.760
said no. She said, what is some weird sound coming

19
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:51.719
from upstairs? I said, well, I might have farted. She said, no, no,

20
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:55.799
it wasn't that sound? I know that sound okay, fair enough?

21
00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:00.159
It makes me a little bit self conscious, and uh,

22
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:05.640
I don't know. I started to think I should like

23
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:11.599
to stick me by them out of the window or something. Anyway,

24
00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:14.960
I went downstairs. I thought I'll come down listen because

25
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:18.639
I can't hear anything up here. So I went down

26
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:26.280
and I was listening and it was this really weird,

27
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:36.080
weird sound, very POLTERGEISTI why don't just call poltageist polter ghost?

28
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.759
It seems weird that they would use the word geist,

29
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:43.840
what not ghost? It makes sense because it's kind of

30
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:48.439
a ghost, isn't it? Anyway? Polter it was or it

31
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:55.560
wasn't a poltergeist. Sorry, if I support the story jumped ahead,

32
00:02:55.560 --> 00:03:04.520
it'll bit there and I well, she couldn't figure out

33
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:06.479
where it was coming from. It sounded like it was

34
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:09.599
coming from the bathroom, but it also sounded like it

35
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:11.759
was in the wall. It sounds like it might be

36
00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:15.800
coming from upstairs. It sounds like it might be coming

37
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.280
from the storage room, which is next to the bathroom.

38
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:23.520
So we're kind of searching. It was like a Scooby

39
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:29.599
Do search, you know, but without well, there's no animated characters.

40
00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:35.639
There's no dog talking dog, and there's no well, we

41
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:37.560
didn't have anyone at the end to like pull off

42
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:41.439
their face and say, ah, it was him all along's

43
00:03:41.479 --> 00:03:50.639
none of that stuff. That's my impression. Vinnie does look

44
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:56.240
Vinnie does look like a kangaroo when he's on all fours.

45
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:59.599
So I mentioned he looked like a kangaroo because I

46
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:02.599
did ature, and I said, oh, we do got a kangaroo. Therefore,

47
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:06.439
it's like it's not a kangaroo. It's just it was

48
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:10.879
out of proportioned size wise the image. But it was

49
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:18.439
supposed to be Vinny based upon his pick picture anyway.

50
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:22.480
So downstairs we're looking at it and we figure out

51
00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:27.600
it's definitely covered from the bathroom, which is in the

52
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:31.240
process of being rebuilt. The only thing in the bathroom

53
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.680
at the moment is just the toilet. There's nothing else

54
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:41.800
in there. And I put a new toilet in yesterday.

55
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:45.720
Now apparently just my neighbor didn't think they were going

56
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.000
to be putting a new toilet in, like a whole

57
00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:52.240
new bathroom but no new toilet. Genuinely thought that, And

58
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:54.800
I thought, I kind of like that seemed like a

59
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:58.160
weird thing to do, because if I had a new

60
00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:02.319
bathroom and they were just going to leave the old toilet,

61
00:05:02.360 --> 00:05:06.720
I'll tell them not to bother. You imagine everything nice

62
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:10.319
and now, and then this is staying thing in the middle.

63
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:18.319
It's like, no, I mean that toilet seemed better days.

64
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:22.399
Well I say better days. I mean it might argue

65
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:24.639
this might be a good day because I haven't used

66
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:31.480
it much. But what a job. I mean, it's literally

67
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:38.360
the kind of what the worst, worstest job outside of

68
00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:45.560
I don't know. I'll move on from that. I think

69
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:47.120
we all know where I'm going with that one. So

70
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:54.959
possibly okay. So so it's like it felt to me

71
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:01.279
and I said to you, you sure it's not my toilet,

72
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.120
because when I flushed my toilet, I had some problems

73
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:07.480
and it wasn't flushing and it was weird. But the

74
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:10.600
plumber came fixed by say plumber, someone from the council

75
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:14.680
that probably does everything came along and fixed it, and

76
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:16.639
then someone else came back the next day and fixed

77
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:23.040
it again. And the water feels up really quick, and

78
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.519
then it goes and it's kind of like once it

79
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:32.800
finished flushing, it's almost like it's burping, like really like, oh,

80
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:37.360
that was lovely it was that kind of sound like

81
00:06:37.519 --> 00:06:41.399
I don't hear the words that's lovely, but it is.

82
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:45.439
That's the kind of sound. Weird, weird sound. I figured

83
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:47.560
out a way to stop it from doing that is

84
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.000
by turning the the and then he said, the wet

85
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:55.759
tap the cold tap on just a little bit so

86
00:06:55.800 --> 00:07:00.120
that it doesn't fill up quite so quickly. And and

87
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.079
it's loud. And I don't because in the middle of

88
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:07.319
the night, if I do we we I don't flush

89
00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:13.480
a toilet. But anything else, I say, anything else is

90
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:18.879
not that many options. As a if I decide to

91
00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:23.199
mix some pancakes, but if anything else I do flush,

92
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:26.439
it's not I'm not a big fan of Yeah, I'd

93
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:35.040
like to try and keep everything. I think. It's kind

94
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:38.199
of like at the end of relationship, isn't it you

95
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:41.839
just want to move on. It's you know, it's like

96
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:47.319
just let's just separate nicely and you know, you get

97
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:51.399
on your life. I'll get on my life. And that's

98
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:54.040
that's to me. It's very much like flushing a toilet.

99
00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:59.839
It's it's a nice clean break. See you, thanks everything

100
00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:06.639
you did for me. And you know, if we meet again,

101
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:08.839
then we'll try and be on good terms, but hopefully

102
00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:13.439
we won't meet again, which is generally what I normally

103
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.279
used to think if I ended a relationship, or a

104
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.680
relationship came to an actual end when they become bored

105
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:25.680
with me, or they realized I really was like this.

106
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.879
I actually had that once. Remember a girlfriend saying to me,

107
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:39.840
I said, what's happened to you? That's what? What do you mean?

108
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:45.039
She said, when we met, you were so full of

109
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:52.320
energy and funny, and now you're just, you know, like that,

110
00:08:56.200 --> 00:09:03.080
I said, because not one dimensional. I didn't know about

111
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:06.240
the bipolar back then. I knew I had moods. I mean,

112
00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:10.360
but hey, this is what I was about twenty six.

113
00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:15.200
And she said, you're you're not like that anymore, and

114
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:21.039
I was thinking, yeah, that is a bit much to

115
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:25.039
kind of keep. Can you hear? That sounds that someone's

116
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:32.919
like knocking on the ceiling downstairs, almost like can you

117
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:35.600
speak up? I can't hear. Can you talk a bit

118
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:44.200
louder please? I? Yeah, I don't know why. I remembered

119
00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:50.159
that I had one girl. One girlfriend. She left me

120
00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:55.440
telling me that my eyebrows were too low, but eyebrows

121
00:09:55.440 --> 00:10:02.960
are too close to my eyes, and I thought, okay,

122
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:08.600
so Ultimately, she wanted someone that was permanently startled and

123
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:11.799
someone walking around it was had a permanent look of

124
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:17.080
expression of surprise. Oh. I tried that, but it was

125
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:22.200
ached a little bit. I thought about shaving my eyebrows

126
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:25.600
off and then just painting someone or getting well, I

127
00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:28.080
not not caterpillars, but you know what I mean, like

128
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:34.200
I'm putting a halfway out my forehead. But then she

129
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:42.320
didn't like that either, so it couldn't have been the eyebrows.

130
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:52.159
I remember once I didn't ask him to talk about

131
00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:54.639
relationship break ups. I'm not gonna look like I'm not

132
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:57.399
going to talk about that, but I just remember once

133
00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:01.879
this is I had a little bit, I don't know,

134
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:07.879
my brain worked, my brain kicked into action, and I

135
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:13.879
got in touch with reality in that moment. So there

136
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:15.399
was this I don't know when. It was a long

137
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.720
time ago. Any female relationship was a long time ago

138
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:26.360
for me. So I'm sitting there and my girlfriend is

139
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:34.440
dumping me. She's already told me she's dumping me, and

140
00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:37.519
she settles down for the evening to tell me all

141
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:42.840
the things wrong I did and all the reasons why

142
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.919
she's dumping me, and all the things I need to change.

143
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:59.840
And at one point she was crying and then I

144
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.519
woke up. I wasn't asleep, but it was boring, but

145
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:07.840
I didn't fall asleep, and I just like it just

146
00:12:08.039 --> 00:12:13.200
kicked in my wait a minute, as my friend, like

147
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.000
you used to like to say, what's wrong with this picture?

148
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:19.679
He used to do that when I used to work

149
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.399
for him. I used to clean clean the toilets and

150
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.200
he would just like it, walked me into the into

151
00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:31.360
the toys, what's wrong with this picture? To start? If

152
00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:34.759
I if I said I don't know, he'd go like

153
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:37.919
he'd get angry and stuff. So I had to kind

154
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.840
of like have something up my sleeve to say. So

155
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:43.159
he walked me in there. So one day like what's

156
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:45.080
wrong with this picture? And I was really I said,

157
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:50.039
is it a pool? And the ceiling he is at

158
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.559
the tambourne hanging hanging from the air conditioning. It's like,

159
00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:57.759
you know, I didn't notice that, but okay, yeah that

160
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:00.759
as well. I don't know why I didn't sack me,

161
00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:08.679
so I yeah, So I'm sitting there getting lectured about

162
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:11.519
everything that's wrong with me, and trust me, it takes

163
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:14.279
a long time to get through those. And that was

164
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:18.799
back then. Imagine, now that's got a good month. I reckon,

165
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:23.440
if you like, talked cons continuously about all my faults.

166
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:29.440
Oh bless, and I kind of got wait, wait a second.

167
00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:33.840
So I'm probably an hour into this, Okay, there was

168
00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:36.519
a lot more to go. You know. I kind of

169
00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:39.559
was thinking, I wish I'd brought a packed lunch. I

170
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:42.240
knew it was going to go. You know, look little

171
00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:46.960
Flaska coffee so I could have a break. And I said,

172
00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:56.600
just just can I just confirmed something said, what are

173
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:59.000
we going to get back together again? Or is this

174
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:03.759
the end? It's the end of the relationship. So I said, okay, right,

175
00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:07.000
I just stood up. So I went to put my

176
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:11.159
coat on, putting trousers back on, and she said, where

177
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:16.399
are you going? I said, I'm going home. She said,

178
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:20.840
but I haven't finished talking. I said, I know, and

179
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:26.799
you probably never will. It was just it just like

180
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:32.200
almost like my brain grew up temporarily. I went back

181
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:35.320
down to being immature again. But for that as you

182
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:40.360
can tell, but for that instant, the mature part of

183
00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:44.879
my brain was activated and I was an adult and

184
00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:49.399
I could see things so clearly, like okay, yeah, I

185
00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:54.639
granted loads of faults I mean untold faults. Never you know,

186
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:59.200
I'll hold my hands up to that. But I don't

187
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:01.799
have to sit and listen to it. You know. It's

188
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:05.879
like I don't have to listen to this character assassination.

189
00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:11.159
Send me a letter. This is for this is afore

190
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:16.759
the internet. Send me a letter, and we might know.

191
00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:18.559
I didn't even have a mobile phone back then, I

192
00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:25.600
don't think. So. Yeah, it was like, really, I think

193
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:29.360
it's the first. It might be the only time that

194
00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:35.799
my the mature part of my brain was ignited. Thinking

195
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:38.519
about it, I might have used up all those brain cells.

196
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.639
Perhaps that's why I've never gone back to that. That's

197
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:47.399
why I've stayed like immature. That's the problem that as

198
00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:50.440
I've got getting older and I start acting weird, I

199
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:55.480
don't think anybody to actually noticed. Oh it's just Jason.

200
00:15:55.559 --> 00:16:05.279
It's just JB and J you know, and yeah, m hm,

201
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:10.960
what's that got to do with the toilet downstairs? So

202
00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:19.720
I so I'm downstairs looking for this noise, which is

203
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:24.440
weird to look for a noise. It's like listening for

204
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.840
I'm listening for a color. You know. It's very kind

205
00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:36.120
of strange. But that's see in my ears are pretty good.

206
00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.679
I mean they should be the size of them, and

207
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.399
I say, pretty good. They're not. It's not that I

208
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:51.000
can hear well, but I've got a good sense of

209
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:57.320
focus in my hearing. Give you an example, I just

210
00:16:57.360 --> 00:17:00.000
turn them into a job interview. Isn't it really big?

211
00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:03.679
Giving myself up here? This is kind of what I've

212
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:06.319
been going to be talking about in this recording. This

213
00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:11.799
is one of those real recordings, those real life like

214
00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:15.839
this is one of those what's actually happening right now

215
00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:20.200
in my life. It's not not bad, it's but it's

216
00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:27.519
not I won't be writing any romantic poetry about it.

217
00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:36.880
Put this way. So anyway, I I remember when I

218
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:46.240
was in a job doing in a call center. I

219
00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:50.799
wonder if I could get another call center job. I

220
00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:59.160
go back to being the grumpy care center call center work.

221
00:18:02.279 --> 00:18:08.359
Maybe I could people, you'd employ yourself, reliable call answer

222
00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:15.599
in twenty four to seven moneypenny. Wow. So if I

223
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:20.599
put call center work in my local town, call center jobs, okay,

224
00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:29.599
new candidates urgently needed. There's a reason why I'm going, Yeah,

225
00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:32.400
there's a reason for me talking about this. Just let

226
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:42.599
you know seventeen call centered jobs. Wow, that was loud.

227
00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:48.440
I've actually got two neighbors, well not to one neighbor

228
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:53.279
and another lady who both worked from home, and they

229
00:18:53.359 --> 00:19:01.279
both work in call centers from home. The problem is

230
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:05.400
with that for me is in some ways, I mean,

231
00:19:05.400 --> 00:19:08.440
maybe I could do it. I don't know what do

232
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:09.960
I do on a day when I can't get out

233
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:13.839
of bed? You know, it's one of those weird things

234
00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:23.240
I can't. I don't know, but probably the only benefit

235
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:26.240
the best for me, the best And I would actually

236
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:32.799
probably say this the best and worst part of life

237
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:38.880
in a way is the people you know or but

238
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:42.319
in a workplace, the people are both the worst and

239
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:46.640
the best part of the job. I generally get on

240
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:57.079
with most people, but sometimes sometimes, you know, it's weird

241
00:19:57.119 --> 00:19:59.480
that you can have ninety you can have a team

242
00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:04.039
of like twenty people, but if he got one person,

243
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:11.480
one difficult person, it can really dampen the atmosphere, and

244
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:17.119
especially if that person's the team leader. Oh. I mean,

245
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:20.839
when I was training my last job, there was we

246
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:24.400
were in this little training area for sales. I don't

247
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:26.519
know if they used it for other departments as well,

248
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.680
but right behind us, I think was the finance department,

249
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.920
and this I guess he was the team leader or

250
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:37.279
he was a supervisor. Was talking to this bloke behind

251
00:20:37.319 --> 00:20:42.599
me like he was. He was very being very disrespectful

252
00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:47.440
to him, talking down to him. And it's weird because

253
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:57.720
I'd only just started working there, and I was really

254
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:00.480
on the edge of my seat about to turn around

255
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:04.839
and just punched that bloke. Really, it was winding me

256
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:09.839
up so much because he just wouldn't do what he

257
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:16.920
was told. Why couldn't he listen to his manager? No,

258
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.279
I really was on the edge, on the verge of

259
00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:24.279
turning around telling the bloke stop talking to him like that.

260
00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:28.720
Yeah he's your you might be you might be his boss,

261
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:34.799
but he's still a human being. You know, you're not

262
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:40.079
his dad. Oh you are his dad? Okay, but yeah,

263
00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:44.119
you're in work. It's not like you don't own the company.

264
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:52.839
Oh okay, hr No, I don't know where that is.

265
00:21:54.839 --> 00:22:00.079
You want me to go there? Now? You escort me there? Okay?

266
00:22:01.039 --> 00:22:10.279
By everyone? Love you urology nurse. I wonder what those

267
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:14.000
jobs are like. Do you know jobs like medical jobs

268
00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:16.160
where you're dealing with a part of the body that

269
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.079
you just did it with one part of the body.

270
00:22:20.839 --> 00:22:26.119
I can understand the brain would be amiss. I just personally,

271
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:32.440
I find the brain super fascinating, and the whole body

272
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:38.200
is phenomenal. Really, I mean all not just humans, but

273
00:22:38.279 --> 00:22:42.599
all bodies. Just the way the system works is bearing

274
00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:47.960
in mind it's just over millions of years or whatever,

275
00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:56.160
it's grown and progressed and you know whatever. I find

276
00:22:56.200 --> 00:23:00.880
the word whatever really helps with moving on from stuff

277
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:13.400
I don't know about. So yeah, I some downstairs looking

278
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:21.119
at this looking listening for this sound, and it's vibrating

279
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:24.759
the wall. And I realized because I thought maybe it

280
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:30.680
was a bird in the extractor fan. The extract fan

281
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.279
has been taken off, but there was like a hole

282
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:39.880
in the wall, surprisingly quiet, thick wall. I was a

283
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:46.480
bit surprised about that thick old wall, and I did

284
00:23:46.519 --> 00:23:49.599
because I've had that in mind where the the a

285
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:54.799
bird got into the extractor fan, and so I thought,

286
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:58.319
maybe that's that's what it was, but looked through there,

287
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:00.960
couldn't see anything. And then it happened again. It's like

288
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:09.119
it's real buzzing, buzzing sound, and I said, maybe it's

289
00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:15.279
my electric toothbrush. She said, do you have an electric toothbrush?

290
00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:18.599
She said no, but I I'd like you to think

291
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:21.759
that if you ever hear anything vibrating upstairs, it's my

292
00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:27.400
electric toothbrush. But do you have electric toothbrush? I said no.

293
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:30.799
I just just want to let you know, if you

294
00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:35.119
ever hear anything vibrating, please just, you know, just assume

295
00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:39.839
it's my electric toothbrush. She said, I wouldn't have assumed anything.

296
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:41.519
Why are you even bringing that up? Why are you

297
00:24:41.559 --> 00:24:46.000
mentioning an electric toothbrush? I said, I don't know. Just

298
00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:49.559
hearing that vibration just reminded me because when I hear

299
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:53.000
things vibrating down here, I have to pretend that it's

300
00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:57.680
not an electric toothbrush. Why would you pretend it's not

301
00:24:57.759 --> 00:25:01.880
an electric toothbrush? Because it makes me giggle? And I

302
00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:05.680
know you do have an electrics through crush it, and

303
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:11.119
I'm just like a very very immature She said, oh,

304
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:14.200
I know that. Can we just try and focus on

305
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:20.200
finding out where this vibration is coming from. Here's a

306
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:26.000
weird thing. My friend he was a security guard, right,

307
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:31.480
and he got told off of being naughty, and I

308
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:33.519
mean it was a middle aged man, but he got

309
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:37.079
I don't know what he did, but he's he did

310
00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:40.440
something wrong and he got told off and he said,

311
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:47.599
when the man showered at him, his bomb vibrated. He said,

312
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:51.000
he's a bomb vibrated, and he said it was lovely.

313
00:25:54.920 --> 00:26:01.519
It was probably the weirdest conversation I'd ever had, and

314
00:26:01.559 --> 00:26:07.319
I never thought I'd actually share that conversation. And I

315
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:14.039
don't know why today is the right day to do that. Yeah,

316
00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:16.880
I don't know. Just reminded me. I think you talking

317
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:20.519
about vibrations. I'm just I think about that. I remember,

318
00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:27.839
you know, sitting on the washing machine with my nan

319
00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:33.599
talking to her while the washing machine was on its cycle.

320
00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:42.079
She should get falling off. Yeah, the good old days.

321
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:44.039
Because the thing is that we used to do this

322
00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:47.440
little thing. So we'd sit on there and the tumble dryer,

323
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:51.160
I mean, you had that vibration the whole time. Sometimes

324
00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:54.680
we'd do with the tumbel dryer, so we'd wait until

325
00:26:54.720 --> 00:26:58.680
the washing machiners we cycling. The tumble drive would also

326
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:01.279
be going. Because she had quite a few washing things

327
00:27:01.279 --> 00:27:04.839
to do. I'd sit on one, she sat on the other.

328
00:27:05.519 --> 00:27:08.119
And what we'd do we'd put our tea, put the

329
00:27:08.160 --> 00:27:10.920
milk in the tea, and we'd fit it right to

330
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:13.559
the top and we'd hold it to see who could

331
00:27:13.559 --> 00:27:17.799
hold it the longest before it's spilt all everywhere, and

332
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:20.279
I remember it when all down the brow, all down

333
00:27:20.319 --> 00:27:26.440
the blouse and down the dress. So she won, I

334
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:31.799
had to get changed, So yeah, this is I missed

335
00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:39.480
those times. M So in the end, what happened is

336
00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:49.119
I realized the last time vibrated, or not the last

337
00:27:49.160 --> 00:27:53.039
time vibrated, but it's definitely coming down from down there.

338
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:58.279
It's coming from down there. I'm pointing down but you

339
00:27:58.519 --> 00:28:00.960
that doesn't really make much difference to you and you're listening,

340
00:28:01.160 --> 00:28:05.359
does it? But it was kind of like a kind

341
00:28:05.359 --> 00:28:11.640
of skirting board. How can you hear that? It's a

342
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:18.960
skirting board and kind of thing in the bathroom? But

343
00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:23.480
would I said, I can definitely tell you it's coming

344
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:26.359
from down that area. So I put my finger on it,

345
00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:28.880
waiting for a vibration. I said, do you want to

346
00:28:28.880 --> 00:28:31.920
stick your finger on it? She said no, you're right,

347
00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:38.240
I said, okay. So I thought I was so hoping

348
00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:41.400
that that would start to vibrate. I mean, there wasn't

349
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:43.440
enough for him to sit on it, but I just

350
00:28:43.519 --> 00:28:47.319
put my finger on it because I was thinking this,

351
00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:54.559
this will be it and I'll be a hero. But

352
00:28:54.680 --> 00:29:00.839
it wasn't what it was. Is we both because we

353
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:04.640
were focusing on the area, we both heard it at

354
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:10.759
the same time. It's a radio, like there was a Builders.

355
00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:13.960
I didn't even know Builders radios still existed, one of

356
00:29:13.960 --> 00:29:16.640
these big Builders radios that especially I suppose you could

357
00:29:16.680 --> 00:29:22.839
drop out a window and not hurt and it was

358
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:27.640
still turned on. But it was like like that. So

359
00:29:27.680 --> 00:29:33.039
it was just every now and then coming and then,

360
00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:38.440
you know, randomly. But it was right where I said,

361
00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:41.359
but it was it was in front of us. I

362
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.119
didn't even notice a radio. I haven't seen one of

363
00:29:45.200 --> 00:29:47.519
them things. And I know what Builders radio looks like.

364
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:52.680
My dad had one, he was electrician, but I haven't

365
00:29:52.720 --> 00:29:55.519
seen one of them for probably thirty years, forty years,

366
00:29:55.640 --> 00:30:04.279
thirty years. Anyway, picked it up and looked at it.

367
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:06.480
I mean, it's a modern version of the one that

368
00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:10.839
my dad had. But just turned it off and that

369
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:16.000
was it. I mean, that's the end of that story.

370
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:20.839
That's a problem. You know. Sometimes the stories are so exciting,

371
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:27.359
the build ups exciting, and it's like a I don't know,

372
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:34.000
some kind of suspenseful crime thriller, and then the middle

373
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:42.079
part is action packed, maybe a little bit of romance,

374
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:50.640
maybe an opportunity for the characters to really take time

375
00:30:50.759 --> 00:30:59.960
to ponder upon life choices, and ideally some kind of

376
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:04.480
climatic exit to the movie. But this didn't have that.

377
00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:07.680
It just had that. I found the radio and they

378
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:13.519
came upstairs, turned it off, came upstairs. It's a shame.

379
00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:21.359
It could have been a really good story. M hm.

380
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:32.559
So Vinnie's just guffed. Oh I'm talking un seriously. Either

381
00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:39.039
that or the spray in the fields. If that not

382
00:31:39.119 --> 00:31:41.440
only there's spray in the field. Either that, or they've

383
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:47.880
sprayed the entire garden outside because it's really bad smelling.

384
00:31:53.559 --> 00:31:57.759
I hope it's him. Oh I got the window open,

385
00:31:57.839 --> 00:32:00.799
so it could be coming from outside. But no, he's

386
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:03.960
aimed is he always lays so his bums aimed at me.

387
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:10.519
He's been acting a bit strange lately. I don't quite

388
00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:16.839
understand why he's. Well. I had a friend come around

389
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:20.599
yesterday that I haven't seen for a while, and Vinnie

390
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:27.359
loves him, like, really really loves him. You know, he's

391
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:30.000
one of the few people that he could be the

392
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:33.720
other side of the field, or the other side of

393
00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:35.599
the park rather or even the field if he could

394
00:32:35.599 --> 00:32:37.920
see him. The other side of the park. I can't

395
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:40.920
see all the way to the other side of the field. Yeah,

396
00:32:41.640 --> 00:32:44.960
and I could let him off the lead and guarantee

397
00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:49.400
it wouldn't matter what else was around, he would run.

398
00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:53.440
He would keep running till he got to him. He's

399
00:32:53.440 --> 00:32:56.200
one of them people. There's a few like that that

400
00:32:56.240 --> 00:33:00.640
he's got that he just loves and he all that's

401
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:05.079
what he focuses on, is that person. He doesn't like

402
00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:09.720
it when they leave. So he was stuck around for

403
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:12.920
only an hour hour and half. We were just talking

404
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:17.960
and Vinnie was sulking. We went out for a walk

405
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:22.960
so he could because he was going. So I took

406
00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:26.480
Vinnie out with us. Vinnie was like pulling me to

407
00:33:26.559 --> 00:33:28.880
because he wanted to go with him. And then when

408
00:33:28.880 --> 00:33:31.079
I got in here, I'm just in the living room,

409
00:33:31.160 --> 00:33:36.359
I don't know, watching some TV, scratching my knees. I

410
00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:44.079
can't remember, I'm sure for he was shaving my toes

411
00:33:44.559 --> 00:33:50.519
something like that, and I really I thought, where's Vinnie.

412
00:33:53.880 --> 00:33:57.920
I'm looking for him. He's not in the bedroom. Is

413
00:33:58.079 --> 00:33:59.640
that I locked him in a kit not locked him

414
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:02.079
in the kitchen. I I closed the kitchen door. So

415
00:34:02.119 --> 00:34:05.200
it happens occasionally he's sniffing around the kitchen. I close

416
00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.360
the door and I don't realize he's in there a lot.

417
00:34:08.400 --> 00:34:10.239
And I haven't got any locks on any of my doors,

418
00:34:12.480 --> 00:34:15.559
apart from the bathroom of course, and the front door.

419
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:21.599
BlimE me, of course, well I would. I'd come home

420
00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:24.440
every day to nothing there'd be There wouldn't even be

421
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:29.119
any carpet if the doors were open. There's this this

422
00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:34.400
kind of area I live in, and I found him.

423
00:34:34.440 --> 00:34:37.119
He wasn't anywhere. I thought, is he hiding? I thought

424
00:34:37.199 --> 00:34:39.639
maybe he'd done it, like had an accident, and he

425
00:34:39.760 --> 00:34:43.679
was hiding because he was scared. Even though I wouldn't

426
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.000
care anyway, it's not why I really make too much

427
00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:49.920
difference to the carpet, probably brighten it up, if anything.

428
00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:54.239
But he was in the hallway in the dark because

429
00:34:54.280 --> 00:34:57.159
there's no lights. There's no light coming into the hallway,

430
00:34:57.639 --> 00:35:01.039
so I couldn't see him at first glance, and he

431
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:03.679
was just laying or sitting. I think he might have

432
00:35:03.719 --> 00:35:08.480
been sitting in the dark near the front door. They

433
00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:10.320
didn't want to go out. He had already been out

434
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:13.679
and gone to a toilet all that stuff. Okay, maybe

435
00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:15.599
he wanted to go he didn't need to go out.

436
00:35:18.360 --> 00:35:28.559
He was pining for his friend uncle Eric, Hey, pining

437
00:35:28.599 --> 00:35:34.239
for Uncoleric, and I was like, come on, what are

438
00:35:34.239 --> 00:35:40.360
you doing? So yeah, he was. And he's been weird today.

439
00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:44.679
He's we'd been reared the lot weird reared. He's been rerored.

440
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:47.519
He's been strange the last few days. When it comes

441
00:35:47.599 --> 00:35:49.920
to food, he's been really off his wet food. But

442
00:35:49.960 --> 00:35:54.239
he's not off food because I just came to sausages

443
00:35:54.239 --> 00:35:59.480
earlier and he enjoyed them. So I don't really know

444
00:35:59.519 --> 00:36:03.039
what's going on. It might just be that time of year,

445
00:36:03.119 --> 00:36:06.800
it seems to be. I think it might be getting

446
00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:10.960
a little bit overheated. I don't know. I can't figure

447
00:36:10.960 --> 00:36:20.440
it out. I hope he's okay, I do. I'm yeah,

448
00:36:20.800 --> 00:36:22.360
I probably. I am a little bit of a worrier.

449
00:36:22.440 --> 00:36:37.440
Sometimes a squeaky chair, isn't it. So So that was yesterday.

450
00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:45.000
It was weird because Monday, I think it was Monday

451
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:51.000
or it's Saturday. I did a recording Saturday. Then I

452
00:36:51.159 --> 00:36:57.440
was pretty busy. I didn't really get a lot done

453
00:36:57.440 --> 00:37:03.239
in the boxing was on, so I watched that. Sunday.

454
00:37:03.639 --> 00:37:05.480
I was in bed most of the day to be fair.

455
00:37:05.960 --> 00:37:13.079
I didn't have Yeah, let's call it my mojo. I've

456
00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:16.480
got different versions of my mojo. This is just I

457
00:37:16.519 --> 00:37:24.480
guess the energy one. So Sunday was like that. Monday.

458
00:37:25.519 --> 00:37:35.039
I really was in that mode of no, no, not

459
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:41.599
not happening, and I couldn't really figure it out. And

460
00:37:42.119 --> 00:37:45.320
I suppose, I mean, you know, building work going on

461
00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:53.239
that probably wasn't ideal. Was it Monday or Tuesday the

462
00:37:53.239 --> 00:38:01.679
building work started? I can't remember. I think it was Monday.

463
00:38:01.880 --> 00:38:09.360
So what day was Monday, the twenty April? Monday the

464
00:38:09.400 --> 00:38:20.400
twenty eighth, So the twenty eighth I did do I

465
00:38:20.519 --> 00:38:24.880
kind of so I did something on Saturday that let

466
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:27.360
me boil your pain away? Twenty nine I did a

467
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:34.960
Q and A Friday the day before, and Monday I

468
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:41.559
couldn't do anything. And then I had a bit of energy.

469
00:38:41.599 --> 00:38:43.599
I think I think it was Monday or Tuesday, and

470
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:45.360
suddenly I had a bit of energy. So I ended

471
00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:51.719
up doing two recordings Monday's bording objects and then let

472
00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:55.639
me boil your pain away. Maybe it was Tuesday when

473
00:38:55.679 --> 00:38:59.199
I just didn't I couldn't focus, But I ended up

474
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:15.840
doing what I did two on Tuesday as well. Did

475
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:27.320
I that's weird to be fair. Wow, whatever happened it?

476
00:39:29.239 --> 00:39:35.280
You know, I went to bed during the day, I

477
00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:38.280
woke up and I kind of felt better, so I

478
00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:43.000
got up and did something. But it's been a hit

479
00:39:43.039 --> 00:39:46.079
and miss this week, although I me blind. I've done

480
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:50.480
two on Monday, two on Tuesday, one Wednesday and day

481
00:39:50.840 --> 00:39:56.079
which is Thursday. Though I haven't done a okay. I

482
00:39:56.119 --> 00:40:00.679
did let Me Boy Pain Away Tuesday, and I also

483
00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:06.400
did let Me Bore Your Pain Away Monday as well

484
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:10.519
and also Saturday, so I've not really I've done a

485
00:40:10.519 --> 00:40:13.039
few of them, so I can't. Yeah, I forget how

486
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:16.119
many I do sometimes because once they've done, I forget

487
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:26.280
about them, and as I think most people too. But yeah, okay,

488
00:40:26.400 --> 00:40:30.880
so that wasn't too bad. But I just I kind

489
00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:35.880
of lost lost it a little bit and managed to

490
00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:40.360
get it back. So that's good. But then something happened

491
00:40:40.400 --> 00:40:48.400
today which is thrown me a little bit. Yesterday it

492
00:40:48.480 --> 00:40:51.880
was weird. I had someone ask me for money. I

493
00:40:51.920 --> 00:40:55.800
had two people asked to borrow money yesterday, so that

494
00:40:56.000 --> 00:41:03.039
was that sets me back emotionally. It does because that

495
00:41:03.199 --> 00:41:06.599
just takes me back to reminds me of the last

496
00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:12.840
ten years of being completely taken advantage of by so

497
00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:16.559
many different people. People borrow money not paying it back,

498
00:41:16.599 --> 00:41:19.000
and how upsetting that is, and it reminds me of

499
00:41:19.800 --> 00:41:22.119
then it reminds me of my friend and yeah, so

500
00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:25.559
I'm gonna get all heavy, but yeah, so that was

501
00:41:25.639 --> 00:41:29.920
quite upsetting. Not at the time, but afterwards there's like

502
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:38.960
a okay. And also I was looking through some of

503
00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:42.920
the messages I've got from a particular person that's been

504
00:41:42.960 --> 00:41:46.280
asking for money since the summer, and some of this,

505
00:41:46.599 --> 00:41:50.599
some of the I can't read it. One day. I

506
00:41:50.599 --> 00:41:56.320
will read them out. I can't now, but there's I

507
00:41:56.440 --> 00:42:02.199
might read them out one day. But it's really strange

508
00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:09.519
how people can sometimes use manipulative tactics, you know, it's

509
00:42:09.599 --> 00:42:17.719
like really knowing how I don't know. I don't think

510
00:42:17.760 --> 00:42:27.199
it's weak or susceptible, gullible, I don't know. I'm kind

511
00:42:27.199 --> 00:42:29.639
of one of these people. Will explain how I am

512
00:42:29.679 --> 00:42:32.880
now and one of these people. This is what I'm like.

513
00:42:36.880 --> 00:42:38.920
I like to think that people are just telling me

514
00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:43.679
the truth. And I don't want to live a life

515
00:42:43.679 --> 00:42:47.599
where I'm just assuming that everyone's lying to me, because

516
00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:50.960
I don't think that's a nice just a nice it's

517
00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:53.760
not a nice way to be experiencing the day. I

518
00:42:53.760 --> 00:43:00.639
don't think you know. No, in reality, not everyone's telling

519
00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:03.599
the truth. And I mean in these recordings, I tell

520
00:43:03.639 --> 00:43:09.320
a lot of porkies, but I would assume most of

521
00:43:09.360 --> 00:43:13.320
it's obvious that I'm not telling the truth and I'm

522
00:43:13.320 --> 00:43:17.360
just making stuff up. But that's the more kind of

523
00:43:18.199 --> 00:43:21.920
weird stuff I've just come out of. I had that

524
00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:25.480
job on there, or just come out of the Oh

525
00:43:26.519 --> 00:43:31.039
the internet annoys me sometimes. I nearly booked an appointment

526
00:43:31.079 --> 00:43:36.599
with Specsavers yesterday, but luckily I didn't because okay, here's

527
00:43:36.639 --> 00:43:39.519
what happened. I've got a letter, got a letter and

528
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:42.119
straight away it was in a brown envelope and I thought,

529
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:46.960
oh no, no, no, no, no, no, never a good sign,

530
00:43:47.719 --> 00:43:53.199
never a good sign. And it was from the DWP,

531
00:43:54.199 --> 00:44:04.960
which the Department of Something Welfare Pensions DW Working Pensions,

532
00:44:05.199 --> 00:44:11.639
Department of Working Pensions DWP, and that's the department that

533
00:44:11.800 --> 00:44:17.760
you get my benefits from. So they are from the

534
00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:21.320
I think July. I think it's something like the twenty

535
00:44:21.400 --> 00:44:25.440
first or the eleventh or something of July. My benefits

536
00:44:25.559 --> 00:44:30.679
stop and I have to apply for a different type

537
00:44:30.679 --> 00:44:35.239
of benefit which is called universal credit, because I'm still

538
00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:43.880
on the old benefits and technically I was told that

539
00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:47.360
I would have been changed over in twenty twenty, so

540
00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:49.760
it's a little bit late. So I've probably done all right,

541
00:44:49.840 --> 00:44:56.679
I guess, But I knew. I have got a local

542
00:44:56.719 --> 00:45:00.719
neighbor who's also about three or four weeks maybe a

543
00:45:00.800 --> 00:45:03.760
couple of months ago, she had hers come through, so

544
00:45:03.840 --> 00:45:08.400
I kind of was expecting it, but I thought maybe

545
00:45:09.920 --> 00:45:12.239
because I knew, I knew it was getting closer to

546
00:45:12.320 --> 00:45:15.800
the the deadline of when they were going to make

547
00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:21.000
everyone swap over. So the difference, I'll tell you the

548
00:45:21.000 --> 00:45:33.679
difference just in case you're interested WD difference between you

549
00:45:34.360 --> 00:45:45.119
see and yes, okay, so difference new style Employment Support

550
00:45:45.119 --> 00:45:49.679
Allowance twenty sixteen. That's the one I'm on now. It

551
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:54.599
was a new back then. What universal credit is? This

552
00:45:54.639 --> 00:45:59.840
is from the sisters Citizens and Advice dot org dot

553
00:46:00.159 --> 00:46:07.960
UK so to see cure. It's called CSA Citizens Advice

554
00:46:08.599 --> 00:46:11.679
Bureau c A B used to be called non according

555
00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:18.079
to CA. Okay, unless this isn't the Citizens Advice Bureau,

556
00:46:18.519 --> 00:46:22.719
that might be a separate website. What is universal credit?

557
00:46:23.719 --> 00:46:30.119
This advice applies to England so Universal Credit has replaced

558
00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:34.559
these benefits for most people. Housing benefit, so this is

559
00:46:34.559 --> 00:46:37.000
what it's said in my letter as well. So my

560
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:39.920
benefits that are going to get are going to cancel

561
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:48.760
in July. Housing Benefit, income Related Employment Support Allowance e

562
00:46:48.960 --> 00:46:54.920
s A, income Based job Seekers Allowance JSA, child Text Credit,

563
00:46:56.079 --> 00:46:59.159
work in text credit, and income support. So I'm on

564
00:46:59.239 --> 00:47:05.559
e SA and Housing Benefit. You might be able to

565
00:47:05.559 --> 00:47:08.840
get Universal Credit if you're not working or you're on

566
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:14.199
a low in come. Universal Credit works differently from the

567
00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:17.320
old benefits, so important. It's important to know the differences

568
00:47:18.480 --> 00:47:20.719
to be fair. I don't know much about the differences,

569
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:25.920
so let's have a look. The biggest differences are you

570
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:29.719
can get Universal Credit if you're unemployed, but also if

571
00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:35.480
you're working. Okay, I'm guessing that's based on how much

572
00:47:35.480 --> 00:47:38.280
you work you're earning, So if you're on a low wage,

573
00:47:38.679 --> 00:47:41.119
would that mean if you're unemployed you can still get it.

574
00:47:42.800 --> 00:47:47.440
You'll usually get a single payment each month rather than

575
00:47:47.559 --> 00:47:52.679
weekly or fortnightly, So mine's fortnightly at the moment, so

576
00:47:52.760 --> 00:47:56.079
it's going to end up being once a month. Instead

577
00:47:56.079 --> 00:48:00.000
of getting a separate housing benefit. Your rent will usually

578
00:48:00.119 --> 00:48:03.239
be paid directly to you as part of your monthly

579
00:48:03.639 --> 00:48:11.039
Universal Credit repayment or payment that I don't like. I'll

580
00:48:11.039 --> 00:48:14.880
be honest with you. I've got got a few friends

581
00:48:14.920 --> 00:48:17.960
that have got well behind on their on their rent

582
00:48:19.480 --> 00:48:25.519
because when you get that in your money and the

583
00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:28.320
bank just takes stuff out because you've got debts or whatever.

584
00:48:29.119 --> 00:48:35.000
And the housing benefit are pretty good. The council are

585
00:48:35.000 --> 00:48:37.239
pretty good. They'll do they really go out their way

586
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:39.840
to help you. They're not They're not in the habit

587
00:48:39.880 --> 00:48:42.199
of just kicking people out as soon as they can

588
00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:45.599
at the moment. Anyway, that might change in the future.

589
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:50.800
I don't know. I'm an ARCHI half expect to like

590
00:48:50.840 --> 00:48:52.599
walk out one day and I be a que people

591
00:48:52.679 --> 00:48:56.719
just waiting to move in seeing if I'm break any

592
00:48:56.800 --> 00:49:09.400
rules rules, And so I'm going to request because I

593
00:49:09.440 --> 00:49:12.519
think you can if you're no good with money, and

594
00:49:12.079 --> 00:49:17.199
I've proved that I'm really not very good. I'm not

595
00:49:17.199 --> 00:49:22.199
great with money, to be honest, and I prefer the

596
00:49:22.280 --> 00:49:26.920
rent to go directly to the landlord rather than give

597
00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:29.840
me because my rent's one hundred and four pounds a week,

598
00:49:29.960 --> 00:49:37.400
which is very low for a flat, but that's four

599
00:49:37.519 --> 00:49:40.159
hundred I don't know. How much that is a month

600
00:49:41.079 --> 00:49:44.039
five hundred, four hundred and whatever, a month four hundred

601
00:49:44.039 --> 00:49:51.480
and twenty is it? I don't know. So you usually

602
00:49:51.559 --> 00:49:55.920
get one one monthly payment to cover your living costs.

603
00:49:57.199 --> 00:50:01.079
If you claim Universal Credit as a couple, you and

604
00:50:01.199 --> 00:50:04.800
your partner will get one payment between the two of you.

605
00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:13.000
That doesn't seem fair, I can understand in a way.

606
00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:21.239
I mean the rents. The rent's going to be the same,

607
00:50:21.639 --> 00:50:23.280
like if you live in a one bedch and flat.

608
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:27.840
If I had a girlfriend here living with me, the

609
00:50:27.920 --> 00:50:32.159
rent is going to be the same. The council tax

610
00:50:32.159 --> 00:50:36.400
will be higher because I get a twenty five percent

611
00:50:36.559 --> 00:50:43.159
discount or whatever because of being on being single person.

612
00:50:46.280 --> 00:50:49.239
I would then, But the bills are going to be higher,

613
00:50:49.280 --> 00:50:52.360
but probably not a huge amount to be fair. But

614
00:50:52.719 --> 00:50:56.440
because the heating won't be any higher, the water will

615
00:50:56.480 --> 00:50:58.440
be a little bit higher, but there won't be a

616
00:50:58.480 --> 00:51:02.559
lot in it. I don't think food is going to

617
00:51:02.599 --> 00:51:06.519
be higher, I imagine, but maybe you can get get

618
00:51:06.559 --> 00:51:09.199
away with the same amount of money for two as

619
00:51:09.199 --> 00:51:19.320
for one. That doesn't really make sense to me. But yeah,

620
00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:21.679
but it doesn't, Yeah, it doesn't. That just kind of

621
00:51:21.719 --> 00:51:24.840
doesn't seem fair. That someone should get less just because

622
00:51:24.840 --> 00:51:31.639
they're living with someone. Anyway, it doesn't apply to me

623
00:51:31.719 --> 00:51:44.800
because I've you'n't got a girlfriend. You'll usually get one payment, okay.

624
00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:50.000
The payment is made up of a basic standard allowance

625
00:51:50.679 --> 00:51:56.239
and extra payments that might apply to you depending on

626
00:51:56.480 --> 00:52:03.480
the circumstances. You might be able to get extra payments

627
00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:08.239
if you look after one or more children, which I

628
00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:15.079
do not. I got Vinny work and pay for childcare. No,

629
00:52:16.639 --> 00:52:22.400
need help with housing costs? No, not other than the rent.

630
00:52:23.360 --> 00:52:28.119
Are disabled or have a health condition. I am class

631
00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:34.960
of disabled due to my mental disability. Are a care

632
00:52:35.639 --> 00:52:39.840
for a disabled person, or have a disabled child? No?

633
00:52:43.119 --> 00:52:49.400
If you get help with rent? If your Universal Credit

634
00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:54.480
payment includes help with rent, I suppose that depends if

635
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:56.199
you're working or not. I guess if you work in

636
00:52:56.239 --> 00:53:00.559
it wouldn't world. I suppose. I don't know. You'll usually

637
00:53:00.559 --> 00:53:03.840
need to pay your landlord each month from your Universal

638
00:53:03.920 --> 00:53:10.079
Credit payment, even if you live in social housing. See

639
00:53:10.119 --> 00:53:14.840
that I don't know. It doesn't There might be a

640
00:53:14.840 --> 00:53:21.599
way around that. I don't know. I'm not sure you

641
00:53:21.639 --> 00:53:24.400
can ask a DWP to pay your rent directly to

642
00:53:24.440 --> 00:53:27.960
your landlord if you're in debt. Have rentrees or are

643
00:53:27.960 --> 00:53:34.159
struggling with money, so I will do that. I'll just say, look, nah,

644
00:53:34.480 --> 00:53:38.360
pay it to them. Don't be giving me one hundred

645
00:53:38.400 --> 00:53:41.199
and four pounds a week. I'll only go and spend

646
00:53:41.239 --> 00:53:45.639
it on chocolate. If you're working, you can work, so

647
00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:49.199
you can work and still get Universal credit. Your Universe

648
00:53:49.280 --> 00:53:53.920
credit will reduce gradually as you earn more. Your Universal

649
00:53:54.000 --> 00:53:56.960
Credit will go up if your job ends or you

650
00:53:57.159 --> 00:54:04.320
earn less. If your self employed, your payment might also

651
00:54:04.519 --> 00:54:11.719
be affected by how much the DWP expects you to

652
00:54:11.800 --> 00:54:23.119
earn each month. This expected I've got hye. Oh, unfortunately

653
00:54:23.159 --> 00:54:25.599
I can't see the screen. Now I can see the screen,

654
00:54:25.719 --> 00:54:30.800
just not the writing this expects. This expected amount is

655
00:54:30.880 --> 00:54:36.880
called your minimum income floor. Find out how the minimum

656
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:43.559
income floor works and if it applies to you next

657
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:50.119
claiming other benefits. If you get Universal credits, you should

658
00:54:50.159 --> 00:54:55.760
apply for council tax reduction. If you get it, it

659
00:54:55.840 --> 00:54:59.559
won't reduce your amount of Universal Credit you get. So

660
00:54:59.760 --> 00:55:02.400
I'm on account of tax reduction? So will that not

661
00:55:02.519 --> 00:55:09.719
just continue? They have to make things so communicated. If

662
00:55:09.719 --> 00:55:12.719
you're disabled, you should check if you're eligible for a

663
00:55:12.840 --> 00:55:19.960
Personal Independence Payments PIP. If you're responsible for a disabled child,

664
00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:24.000
you should check if you can claim Disability Living Allowance

665
00:55:24.159 --> 00:55:29.599
DLA for your child. Getting PIP or DLA won't reduce

666
00:55:29.679 --> 00:55:35.400
the amount of Universal Credits you get, and they're trying

667
00:55:35.440 --> 00:55:39.679
to by the government are really trying to crack down

668
00:55:39.880 --> 00:55:46.519
on personal independence personal independent payments to reduce it, like

669
00:55:46.719 --> 00:55:49.000
really to get as many people off that as possible.

670
00:55:49.039 --> 00:55:52.920
As well, you can also claim other benefits if you

671
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:59.159
have enough National Insurance contributions. For example, if you're unemployed,

672
00:55:59.639 --> 00:56:03.760
check it if you can claim contribution based job Seekers

673
00:56:03.760 --> 00:56:14.920
Allowance JSA also called New Style of JSA. No, if

674
00:56:14.960 --> 00:56:18.559
you can't work because of illness of disability, check if

675
00:56:18.639 --> 00:56:29.400
you can claim contribution based Employment and Support allowance. But

676
00:56:29.480 --> 00:56:35.119
that's what I'm on, so that makes no sense to

677
00:56:35.239 --> 00:56:41.840
get moving me away from that. This is claiming other benefits.

678
00:56:41.880 --> 00:56:45.159
If you get Universal Credit, check if you can can

679
00:56:45.239 --> 00:56:51.000
claim contribution based Employment and Support Allowance ESA also called

680
00:56:51.079 --> 00:56:54.960
new style essay. If you get either of these benefits,

681
00:56:55.000 --> 00:56:59.159
your Universal Credit will be reduced, but there are reasons

682
00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:04.719
it's still claiming them. For example, Universal Credit is paid

683
00:57:04.760 --> 00:57:08.920
once a month, but JSA and ESA are paid every

684
00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:12.559
two weeks. This might make it easier to manage your money,

685
00:57:13.199 --> 00:57:17.440
right there. See they know it's easy to manage money

686
00:57:17.480 --> 00:57:21.159
if you get paid every two weeks. Yeah, they're paying

687
00:57:21.239 --> 00:57:27.840
every month. Horace has just come back. Horace, theh is gone.

688
00:57:28.760 --> 00:57:30.320
He hears his name. As soon as he hears his

689
00:57:30.400 --> 00:57:42.280
name's gone, said Horace turned around, flapdoay applying for new

690
00:57:42.440 --> 00:57:48.159
style ESSA check if you can claim contributing based so

691
00:57:48.440 --> 00:57:53.039
changes from SA rules from twoenty twenty eight. On the

692
00:57:53.199 --> 00:57:58.639
eighteenth of March two thousand and twenty five, the government

693
00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:04.320
announced changes to how some types of ESA are paid.

694
00:58:05.320 --> 00:58:09.679
These changes would not happen until two thousand and twenty eight.

695
00:58:11.119 --> 00:58:15.440
If you're thinking of applying for new style ESSAY, you should.

696
00:58:16.159 --> 00:58:19.679
You're more likely to get essay if you apply before

697
00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:28.760
the rules change. Okay, you can get essay at the

698
00:58:28.800 --> 00:58:32.719
same time as other benefits like PIP, but you can't

699
00:58:33.000 --> 00:58:35.480
usually get essay at the same time as job seekers

700
00:58:35.519 --> 00:58:42.079
Allowance or income support. If you're employed but you can't work,

701
00:58:42.199 --> 00:58:47.159
you usually get statutory SSP. Statutary can't say that word

702
00:58:47.599 --> 00:58:54.280
statutor statuttery. I just started coughing in I realized I

703
00:58:54.320 --> 00:58:56.320
think one of the reason I'm coughing is because Vinnie

704
00:58:56.519 --> 00:59:01.920
is he's peeling or whatever you want to call it.

705
00:59:01.960 --> 00:59:05.199
Is hairs just coming off there everywhere, and I've got

706
00:59:05.199 --> 00:59:07.760
them all over my desk. It's little hairs. I think

707
00:59:07.760 --> 00:59:12.239
they might be getting Hello, darling, I'm not saying a

708
00:59:12.239 --> 00:59:20.199
lo to the hairs on top of Ta Vinny Ivan. Okay. Anyway, So,

709
00:59:21.639 --> 00:59:26.559
if you're employed but you can't work, you usually get

710
00:59:26.639 --> 00:59:37.360
statuteter ary statute statutory statutory sick pay from your employer

711
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:40.199
for twenty eight weeks. You can't get SSP and essay

712
00:59:40.199 --> 00:59:43.760
at the same time that you can start your essay.

713
00:59:43.800 --> 00:59:46.599
Claim fuck up to three months before you're SSP. Are

714
00:59:46.920 --> 00:59:52.440
on bord with that. If you've been told to claim

715
00:59:52.519 --> 00:59:55.360
Universe of Credit by a certain date, yes, I have.

716
00:59:56.239 --> 00:59:59.920
The Department for Working Pensions are stopping some people's benefits

717
01:00:00.159 --> 01:00:06.039
telling them to claim Universal Credit instead. Guilty, guilty, me,

718
01:00:06.719 --> 01:00:09.960
done it to me. If you get a letter telling

719
01:00:10.000 --> 01:00:13.000
you to claim Universe Credit by a certain deadline, this

720
01:00:13.280 --> 01:00:17.119
is a migration notice. It's weird that I would use

721
01:00:17.159 --> 01:00:23.280
a word like that. You should claim Universal Credit by

722
01:00:23.320 --> 01:00:27.000
the deadline. In the migration notice. Your old benefits will

723
01:00:27.039 --> 01:00:31.440
stop after the deadline. You might miss out on some

724
01:00:31.639 --> 01:00:36.360
money if you apply it after the deadline. See, this

725
01:00:36.480 --> 01:00:44.079
is weird. So they're saying, oh, the new essay now

726
01:00:44.360 --> 01:00:47.039
and changes one hand to twenty twenty eight. But it's

727
01:00:47.079 --> 01:00:51.239
only twenty twenty five now, I think they're making apps.

728
01:00:51.239 --> 01:00:55.800
They go along, check what you should do if you

729
01:00:55.840 --> 01:00:59.960
get a migration notice. So this is what I got today,

730
01:01:00.119 --> 01:01:05.039
an immigration notice. They are called legacy benefits, and so

731
01:01:05.239 --> 01:01:09.199
university credit to replace an older benefits. I've already this

732
01:01:09.280 --> 01:01:13.480
is what I started on, isn't it If your letter

733
01:01:13.519 --> 01:01:16.199
doesn't have a deadline, it's not on migration notice. You

734
01:01:16.239 --> 01:01:19.280
don't have to claim universal credit unless you want to,

735
01:01:20.199 --> 01:01:22.679
even if the letter says you'll have to claim universal

736
01:01:22.719 --> 01:01:26.480
credit in the future. Why are you begging at forth?

737
01:01:26.519 --> 01:01:29.360
Then you got your dinner down there, Why don't you

738
01:01:29.400 --> 01:01:35.440
eat that? So they're basically, yeah, I've got a deadline

739
01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:41.159
of mine. They've given me. What was it now, May June,

740
01:01:41.280 --> 01:01:46.119
So yeah, beginning of May, beginning Dune, beginning of July.

741
01:01:47.679 --> 01:01:53.719
Two months, two and a little bit months. So I

742
01:01:53.800 --> 01:02:04.679
filled it in today. Ah, it's weird, So I got

743
01:02:04.719 --> 01:02:09.280
I don't know how long it takes for the money

744
01:02:09.320 --> 01:02:12.800
to come through. That's what That's what I'm thinking. How

745
01:02:12.800 --> 01:02:16.400
long have I got got got go? Because when I

746
01:02:16.480 --> 01:02:21.519
signed on before it took or it took it for

747
01:02:21.679 --> 01:02:29.000
about four or five weeks maybe before I got anything,

748
01:02:31.320 --> 01:02:36.800
and then I only got very very basic minimum and

749
01:02:36.840 --> 01:02:52.440
it wasn't until oh yeah, it was quite a long time,

750
01:02:52.679 --> 01:02:56.760
quite a good few good quite a few months that

751
01:02:56.840 --> 01:03:00.599
I got paid. The back payment because of back payment

752
01:03:00.639 --> 01:03:02.960
was something like two and a half grand, maybe three

753
01:03:03.079 --> 01:03:06.119
thousand pounds. So it just shows you how long I

754
01:03:06.159 --> 01:03:08.760
was weighing. I think it was like maybe nine months,

755
01:03:08.760 --> 01:03:12.519
ten months, nine months, I don't know. So I got

756
01:03:12.559 --> 01:03:17.360
that and then I went on to its normal amount.

757
01:03:19.639 --> 01:03:22.280
So I don't know what quiet. I don't know how

758
01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:26.679
it works from that perspective. So I filled the forward

759
01:03:26.800 --> 01:03:35.480
or lied at the very end. This was very strange,

760
01:03:36.079 --> 01:03:43.000
very I just it threw me off a bit. Let

761
01:03:43.000 --> 01:03:45.400
me say, if I log into this nigally, i'll show

762
01:03:45.639 --> 01:03:47.760
when I show it to you, but I'll read it

763
01:03:47.760 --> 01:03:55.800
out here because I was surprised at this. Create an account,

764
01:03:55.840 --> 01:03:57.960
I want to create an account. I want to log

765
01:03:58.000 --> 01:04:04.920
into my account, kah create oh sign into you? Why

766
01:04:04.960 --> 01:04:20.199
have they got to make things difficult. That's weird. M hmm. Okay,

767
01:04:20.320 --> 01:04:24.920
so use a name. What's my user name? I know

768
01:04:25.039 --> 01:04:46.679
it is, and please give me more money. Okay, now

769
01:04:46.800 --> 01:04:59.719
my that that was my noon. Oh unless it's m

770
01:05:04.519 --> 01:05:11.159
oh good, save confirm it'sheared blindly and I've got to go.

771
01:05:11.400 --> 01:05:13.519
I mean, it's good that they've got all this security stuff,

772
01:05:13.559 --> 01:05:26.559
but wow, okay, what's the code? Nine two three seven

773
01:05:26.679 --> 01:05:34.199
three five four seven nine six one? Here we go, right,

774
01:05:34.440 --> 01:05:41.920
we will call you next steps. So basically I've got

775
01:05:42.119 --> 01:05:46.599
they're not calling me now to do lists right journal

776
01:05:51.039 --> 01:05:57.480
confirm your identity. So this is the problem, confirm your identity.

777
01:05:58.679 --> 01:06:05.039
And I was like, okay, how there was no way

778
01:06:05.159 --> 01:06:08.800
I could confirm my identity simply because what they were

779
01:06:08.840 --> 01:06:12.320
asking for I do not have do not have a

780
01:06:12.400 --> 01:06:18.760
driving license. I do not have a up to date passport.

781
01:06:20.360 --> 01:06:23.239
Last time he was passort passport was over three years ago.

782
01:06:23.280 --> 01:06:29.639
Now I think I don't have any credit cards stuff.

783
01:06:29.679 --> 01:06:34.039
I haven't got no credit cards. I don't get any

784
01:06:35.599 --> 01:06:41.920
bills anymore. Everything's kind of on just online now. But

785
01:06:42.039 --> 01:06:44.880
didn't ask for any bills. It's like there's nothing, there's

786
01:06:44.920 --> 01:06:49.239
nothing for me to prove my ID yeah, I've got

787
01:06:49.239 --> 01:06:53.679
a council flat that I've had for ten years, and

788
01:06:53.719 --> 01:06:55.679
they know who I am and they're paying me. They've

789
01:06:55.679 --> 01:06:58.880
got our bank details. If that's not proof of ID

790
01:06:59.159 --> 01:07:01.280
giving you a bank deal tells and I don't know

791
01:07:01.320 --> 01:07:08.119
what is. Ironically, not one point during this whole thing

792
01:07:08.360 --> 01:07:15.559
have they asked my national insurance number. That I found

793
01:07:15.559 --> 01:07:21.559
interesting because that's a very personal thing. It's a little

794
01:07:21.559 --> 01:07:26.320
bit like what a prison number. You know, if you

795
01:07:26.400 --> 01:07:28.760
go in the prison, now you pretty much just keep

796
01:07:28.800 --> 01:07:32.400
the same number. Well, if you however many times you

797
01:07:32.480 --> 01:07:35.119
go back in, it's the same number. So this is

798
01:07:35.239 --> 01:07:42.559
the national insurance number. Is the same number, always stays

799
01:07:42.599 --> 01:07:50.199
the same. Mine is sc x y jy jy hash

800
01:07:50.280 --> 01:07:55.880
hash hash groovy fella. So that's my national insurance number

801
01:07:55.960 --> 01:08:02.559
and sixty nine at the end. And I like, they

802
01:08:02.639 --> 01:08:07.920
didn't ask for that, So I've got them down. They're

803
01:08:07.920 --> 01:08:10.920
going to call me, right, They're gonna call me. We

804
01:08:11.039 --> 01:08:14.079
will call you. Calls from US may show on your

805
01:08:14.119 --> 01:08:21.520
phone as eight hundred number uncannone number are withheld number.

806
01:08:22.640 --> 01:08:24.840

807
01:08:24.840 --> 01:08:27.239
calls from these numbers. We will make sure that you

808
01:08:27.359 --> 01:08:32.880

809
01:08:32.920 --> 01:08:37.199
with your claim until we have confirmed your identity. We

01:08:37.279 --> 01:08:40.159
will call you in the next two to three days

811
01:08:40.319 --> 01:08:45.920
to arrange an interview to verify your identity. Don't be

812
01:08:46.000 --> 01:08:50.119
asking me to go anywhere. I didn't go anywhere. You

813
01:08:50.239 --> 01:08:53.800
talked to him on the phone. Check information you gave us.

814
01:08:54.319 --> 01:08:55.760
If you do not want to wait for a call,

815
01:08:55.840 --> 01:08:58.720
you can confirm your identity online. So let's click that.

816
01:08:58.800 --> 01:09:00.960
What does it say? Come on, came on, come on.

817
01:09:02.039 --> 01:09:05.520
Confirming your identity checks that it's really you making a claim.

818
01:09:05.960 --> 01:09:08.239
We will help you choose the best ways to do this.

819
01:09:08.880 --> 01:09:13.680
You must confirm your If it's not me, right, they're

820
01:09:13.680 --> 01:09:16.199
going to put the money into my bank account. What

821
01:09:16.319 --> 01:09:19.800
use is it for someone else if it's going into

822
01:09:19.840 --> 01:09:24.880
my bank account, the same bank account. So here's here's

823
01:09:24.880 --> 01:09:33.000
what we've got here here right, here's the options pay slips.

824
01:09:34.880 --> 01:09:37.119
You will need at least two items from a list

825
01:09:37.159 --> 01:09:40.640
and this list to verify your identity online pay slips.

826
01:09:43.119 --> 01:09:48.479
I don't have a payslip P sixty. I don't even

827
01:09:48.640 --> 01:09:51.479
not sure what a P sixty is. It's something to

828
01:09:51.520 --> 01:09:57.199
do with work related UK passport, A valid UK passport Nope,

829
01:09:59.199 --> 01:10:06.199
a UK drive license, never driven. Self assessment. You need

830
01:10:06.239 --> 01:10:10.079
your recent self assessment returns. I don't know what that is.

831
01:10:10.800 --> 01:10:14.800
Credit reference, I guess that's what's that's self employed or something.

832
01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:20.680
Credit references or records, for example, information about credit cards

833
01:10:20.760 --> 01:10:32.399
or phone contracts. I don't I've just I don't have

834
01:10:32.520 --> 01:10:39.520
these things. I don't know what to say. I'm very flamixed.

835
01:10:41.720 --> 01:10:43.760
So yeah, that's just how it is now. So I'm

836
01:10:43.800 --> 01:10:48.680
gonna have to wait for them. How ironic would it be? Not? Probably?

837
01:10:48.720 --> 01:10:53.800
Irony is possibly not the correct word. Before I wasn't

838
01:10:53.800 --> 01:10:58.359
allowed I wasn't allowed to have any any help because

839
01:10:58.399 --> 01:11:04.760
they couldn't prove who I was. How ridiculous is that?

840
01:11:08.039 --> 01:11:10.800
And I could just say, well, how about I take

841
01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:12.960
a photocopy of every letter that you sent me in

842
01:11:13.000 --> 01:11:16.640
the last ten years. I've got them all, I send

843
01:11:16.640 --> 01:11:18.680
them to you. That kind of proves that I am

844
01:11:18.720 --> 01:11:25.600
who I am? Does it not? Anyway? Other than that,

845
01:11:25.800 --> 01:11:33.600
everything's good, groovy. See if I've got any emails, any emails,

846
01:11:33.720 --> 01:11:49.000
and I'm gonna have myself a toilet and then a

847
01:11:49.039 --> 01:11:56.640
bowl of breakfast a cereal, I think, and then yeah,

848
01:11:56.760 --> 01:12:00.960
blines half past four I've only eaten twice today. It's

849
01:12:01.159 --> 01:12:06.159
just good, isn't it. So I had I had some

850
01:12:06.479 --> 01:12:17.479
six point thirty probably something about twelve or eleven eleven ish,

851
01:12:17.520 --> 01:12:23.319
and now now, well probably it's four point thirty now,

852
01:12:23.920 --> 01:12:26.199
so it's probably going to be more core to fine.

853
01:12:26.520 --> 01:12:37.119
If i'd say before I'm actually munching away, Oh, I

854
01:12:37.199 --> 01:12:44.520
need to exercise my hips. I feel like I could,

855
01:12:45.039 --> 01:12:50.239
so I could be really good. I'd like someone to

856
01:12:50.279 --> 01:12:54.439
do some thrusting with well maybe not thrusting, but do

857
01:12:54.439 --> 01:12:57.239
you know, you us see these videos on YouTube where

858
01:12:57.720 --> 01:13:03.119
someone's kind of pushing the person, like stretching them, but

859
01:13:03.279 --> 01:13:06.000
helping them stretch. That's what I kind of think. I

860
01:13:06.159 --> 01:13:09.560
need someone to hold my legs and just push back

861
01:13:09.600 --> 01:13:15.119
gently and maybe push back on my hips, help me

862
01:13:15.159 --> 01:13:18.399
to open up a bit, so maybe not thrusting, but

863
01:13:18.640 --> 01:13:21.239
maybe pushing forward and they can just push me a

864
01:13:21.279 --> 01:13:26.000
little bit more, just to open up the joints and stuff.

865
01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:35.119
I think that'd be quite cool, but everyone says no,

866
01:13:40.079 --> 01:13:42.680
let's getting to the point where it's becoming embarrassing being

867
01:13:42.720 --> 01:13:46.039
on a bus. I'm just like asking people you'd think

868
01:13:46.199 --> 01:13:48.479
a bus journey would be a good place to try

869
01:13:48.520 --> 01:13:52.960
and to meet someone that could help you with some stretching. No,

870
01:13:55.439 --> 01:14:00.000
maybe a gym. I just need to find a gym

871
01:14:00.039 --> 01:14:09.039
that allow me in. Here's a weird thing. I nearly

872
01:14:09.039 --> 01:14:12.079
did all I did, Actually I did do. Vinnie was

873
01:14:12.119 --> 01:14:18.960
on a chair near the bedroom window, and normally I've

874
01:14:18.960 --> 01:14:20.920
got the curtains drawn a little bit so you can

875
01:14:20.960 --> 01:14:29.199
get into the windowsill. I cooked some sausages. He wouldn't

876
01:14:29.239 --> 01:14:31.079
come in here. He was like in the other room.

877
01:14:31.359 --> 01:14:32.760
I don't know. He had a bit of a weird

878
01:14:33.119 --> 01:14:35.840
had been a bit of weird mood today. So what

879
01:14:36.159 --> 01:14:38.680
thought it'd be funny is if I held the sausage

880
01:14:38.720 --> 01:14:43.760
like it was part of my anatomy. So I jumped

881
01:14:43.880 --> 01:14:47.960
in the doorway and just wiggled in about. And I

882
01:14:48.039 --> 01:14:50.880
forgot that the curtains were drawn, and there's no neck curtains,

883
01:14:51.119 --> 01:14:56.920
and the lady opposite was in her kitchen. It's like, oh, oh, dear,

884
01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:04.560
and I just jumped back and hid. Now, perhaps I

885
01:15:04.560 --> 01:15:08.399
shouldn't have done, and probably made it worse, but it was.

886
01:15:08.600 --> 01:15:11.279
It literally was just a sausage, and I gave it

887
01:15:11.319 --> 01:15:15.520
to Vinnie. He wouldn't I had did like put it,

888
01:15:15.640 --> 01:15:17.840
break it into little bits for him because he's been

889
01:15:17.920 --> 01:15:22.279
very lazy. But yeah, I was that was a bit

890
01:15:22.279 --> 01:15:27.960
of a weird a weird one. Not the weirdest thing

891
01:15:28.039 --> 01:15:39.039
has ever happened, but yeah, I think probably the weirdest

892
01:15:39.039 --> 01:15:43.079
thing is when I was I had Andre in town

893
01:15:43.279 --> 01:15:46.479
and people coming up to me, Oh, he's so cute,

894
01:15:47.680 --> 01:15:49.640
and he was just you know, wheeling about and all

895
01:15:49.680 --> 01:15:53.199
that stuff, and I was holding him into I was

896
01:15:53.319 --> 01:15:56.640
kind of, this is a long time ago, it's like

897
01:15:56.720 --> 01:15:59.920
nine years ago, when and I was talking to this

898
01:16:00.119 --> 01:16:02.600
female and she seemed to be interested, and she's talking

899
01:16:02.600 --> 01:16:06.039
to me and getting on really well, and I'm kind of,

900
01:16:07.640 --> 01:16:10.439
I don't know, not shoving off, but trying to be

901
01:16:13.000 --> 01:16:15.880
trying to be interested maybe I don't know if it's possible,

902
01:16:16.560 --> 01:16:20.000
and thinking this is going quite well. And she starts laughing.

903
01:16:20.039 --> 01:16:23.399
She's laughing at my jokes, and she's laughing, really laughing

904
01:16:23.399 --> 01:16:26.000
at this point, and I'm thinking, Wow, this is going

905
01:16:26.039 --> 01:16:29.239
really well. And then other people start laughing, and I'm thinking,

906
01:16:30.319 --> 01:16:33.600
blind me, this is going really well. And then I

907
01:16:33.720 --> 01:16:36.520
notice people behind me were laughing, and another people at

908
01:16:36.560 --> 01:16:38.800
the side of me were like, and I looked down

909
01:16:39.600 --> 01:16:43.159
because they were pointing Vinnie had pooed all down my

910
01:16:43.279 --> 01:16:46.920
top and onto my trousers. Not Vinnie Andre, sorry, not

911
01:16:47.039 --> 01:16:51.520
Vinny Andre, pretty much and weed and everything like he

912
01:16:51.600 --> 01:16:53.479
wanted to go to a toilet, but I was holding

913
01:16:53.520 --> 01:16:57.840
onto him, didn't realize he needed a toilet, and he

914
01:16:58.079 --> 01:17:05.319
just let go all over me. And I was actually

915
01:17:05.359 --> 01:17:07.079
with someone, so I was with a woman as well.

916
01:17:07.199 --> 01:17:12.640
She thought it was hilarious also, but apparently she didn't

917
01:17:12.640 --> 01:17:23.439
want a second date. It was weird. I still can't

918
01:17:23.479 --> 01:17:26.720
find it funny even now. It was horrid. It really.

919
01:17:26.760 --> 01:17:29.359
It was in the middle of town. I had no

920
01:17:29.600 --> 01:17:34.239
change of clothes, and I did go into a public

921
01:17:34.279 --> 01:17:39.319
toilet to try and like wash myself off, but then

922
01:17:39.359 --> 01:17:41.479
it just went from It just looked like I wet

923
01:17:41.560 --> 01:17:46.520
myself and after that because everything was wet, so it

924
01:17:46.560 --> 01:17:53.920
looked like I just Yeah, it was a weird one,

925
01:17:54.560 --> 01:17:59.199
but it wasn't. It wasn't Andre's fault. It was me.

926
01:17:59.319 --> 01:18:03.079
I wasn't really didn't wasn't reading what he needed. But

927
01:18:03.119 --> 01:18:05.840
then he was wiggling about anyway, but he kept trying

928
01:18:05.840 --> 01:18:09.600
to get down. And in the end, because with the

929
01:18:09.600 --> 01:18:11.319
finger with ferrets is when they need to go, they

930
01:18:11.359 --> 01:18:16.000
need to go they don't like, then he'll spend ten, fifteen,

931
01:18:16.079 --> 01:18:19.600
twenty minutes looking for somewhere to go to the toilet. Andre.

932
01:18:21.199 --> 01:18:29.079
They get like a five second notice, maybe ten seconds

933
01:18:29.119 --> 01:18:32.840
sometimes sometimes even two seconds, to a really short notice

934
01:18:32.920 --> 01:18:41.079
like need to go go now, Andre Vinni is kind

935
01:18:41.119 --> 01:18:44.680
of like, yeah, he'll spend a good twenty minutes walking

936
01:18:44.760 --> 01:18:50.079
up and down the grass finding the correct place. Andre.

937
01:18:52.079 --> 01:18:53.960
He'd go in the right place if he could. But

938
01:18:54.159 --> 01:18:58.920
you know, if he couldn't always get to the where

939
01:18:58.920 --> 01:19:01.920
the paper was, especially if it was on the roofs

940
01:19:01.960 --> 01:19:07.880
on the roof sunbathing, they just do it down the chimney.

941
01:19:07.880 --> 01:19:14.439
So it's all right. I was thinking about that, you know,

942
01:19:14.600 --> 01:19:18.079
like sending kids up chimneys. I was just thinking about

943
01:19:18.119 --> 01:19:21.720
that the other day because a lot of kids want

944
01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:25.640
to do what their parents do, don't They Oh, can

945
01:19:25.720 --> 01:19:28.000
I do it? Like, no, you can't, you're too young.

946
01:19:29.079 --> 01:19:36.720
So I'm guessing when parents were cleaning out the chimneys,

947
01:19:37.880 --> 01:19:39.880
the little kids are saying, how can I help? Can

948
01:19:39.920 --> 01:19:43.479
I help? Not realizing it was going to lead to

949
01:19:43.520 --> 01:19:48.159
a career, but like, what can I help? Also probably

950
01:19:48.159 --> 01:19:50.760
not realizing that they were going to be sent up

951
01:19:50.800 --> 01:19:54.680
the chimney, because you know, when they say can I help,

952
01:19:54.720 --> 01:19:56.800
they probably thought can I just hold the big stick

953
01:19:57.720 --> 01:20:01.720
and get dirty? They didn't think that they were going

954
01:20:01.760 --> 01:20:03.840
to be put on the end of a stick and

955
01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:07.119
shoved up the chimney. So yeah, I suppose it was

956
01:20:08.239 --> 01:20:10.880
wearing a little brush on a hat with a brush on.

957
01:20:14.359 --> 01:20:22.239
Uh now become like really really tall toilet brushes, and't

958
01:20:22.279 --> 01:20:29.640
they We've still got chimneys here. It's weird. There's a

959
01:20:29.720 --> 01:20:34.039
chimney over the road. Literally on that block over there,

960
01:20:34.439 --> 01:20:41.119
there's a chimney. Now, there's one hundred percent no fire

961
01:20:41.359 --> 01:20:46.640
place in there at all, So why is there a chimney?

962
01:20:46.680 --> 01:20:54.239
I got no idea unless I'm gonna look, this is

963
01:20:54.279 --> 01:21:06.640
going to bug you now for that. Look. Okay, yeah,

964
01:21:06.640 --> 01:21:13.279
there's definitely a chimney. There's a chimney on a building.

965
01:21:13.399 --> 01:21:20.239
It's just studio flats. I an't know. There's no open fires.

966
01:21:20.319 --> 01:21:24.840
Maybe I guess they used to be, But would there

967
01:21:24.840 --> 01:21:28.079
have been in nineteen seventy eight when these buildings were built.

968
01:21:31.600 --> 01:21:33.880
I don't imagine there had been open fires back then.

969
01:21:36.000 --> 01:21:42.359
It would have been more just central heating. I didn't

970
01:21:42.359 --> 01:21:51.640
he know, there's definitely a fire like a chimney on top.

971
01:21:51.800 --> 01:21:54.199
I guess it's just blocked. I mean when I moved

972
01:21:54.199 --> 01:21:58.000
into the when we moved into the family house in

973
01:21:58.159 --> 01:22:09.039
about nineteen seventy nine, was it, there was a chimney

974
01:22:09.159 --> 01:22:18.359
in the living room and the bedroom upstairs, which was

975
01:22:18.399 --> 01:22:21.600
their parents' bedroom, So there was a chimney. I think

976
01:22:21.600 --> 01:22:24.680
they blocked the one in the bedroom. There might have

977
01:22:24.720 --> 01:22:26.439
even been one in the other one, which would also

978
01:22:26.479 --> 01:22:31.039
be the room next to it as well, but we

979
01:22:31.119 --> 01:22:34.600
had the one. We had the chimney in the living room,

980
01:22:34.960 --> 01:22:41.399
the chimney. We had the fireplace, the open fireplace actually

981
01:22:41.800 --> 01:22:48.359
active in the winter and stuff. I should love it.

982
01:22:48.399 --> 01:22:59.399
I love the open fire. It was lovely, Yeah, I did.

983
01:23:00.079 --> 01:23:01.920
If we had one in the other room. I think

984
01:23:01.960 --> 01:23:05.560
it was just one room that was really nice. It

985
01:23:05.680 --> 01:23:18.560
was just really comfy, cozy, smoky, stuffy, but it was nice.

986
01:23:21.800 --> 01:23:23.640
I don't know if they got outlawed. I don't know

987
01:23:23.760 --> 01:23:28.079
if it was if we had to stop using them.

988
01:23:28.319 --> 01:23:31.560
Because when I used to go to Nottingham, I had

989
01:23:31.560 --> 01:23:35.000
this friend who lived there and he had everywhere because

990
01:23:35.000 --> 01:23:40.479
the colon are like a mining village, and everyone had

991
01:23:40.520 --> 01:23:47.119
these wood burners in these places, and well, cold as well,

992
01:23:47.119 --> 01:23:50.079
but they'd have these things that would beyond all day

993
01:23:50.119 --> 01:23:57.119
long and like a, yeah, I think it was quite nice,

994
01:23:59.239 --> 01:24:08.640
Like yeah, such a lovely house, Finny, I don't know

995
01:24:08.640 --> 01:24:12.600
what you want, right, I'll bet it go. So yeah,

996
01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:20.800
that's just basically what's happening. That's the update I had

997
01:24:20.800 --> 01:24:23.560
this little thing. I played with her thought, Okay, I

998
01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:28.119
should reword that I had this idea. Maybe just come

999
01:24:28.119 --> 01:24:38.399
off the benefits and just say I need to I

1000
01:24:38.439 --> 01:24:41.079
need to have enough money coming in to pay everything,

1001
01:24:44.560 --> 01:24:48.039
and just put it to the universe, just like put

1002
01:24:48.079 --> 01:24:50.199
it out there and say I need this is what

1003
01:24:50.239 --> 01:24:52.399
I need. I need to pay my rent, need to eat,

1004
01:24:52.920 --> 01:24:57.560
need to pay the bills, and in return I will

1005
01:24:58.640 --> 01:25:04.239
make regular recordings. But I don't know. I'm all sure

1006
01:25:04.279 --> 01:25:09.079
if the universe is listening all the time. I like

1007
01:25:09.159 --> 01:25:16.199
to think it is. That is one of the one

1008
01:25:16.239 --> 01:25:19.039
of the rules of the secret one of the rules

1009
01:25:19.079 --> 01:25:29.239
of the manifestation thing is or the think and grow rich,

1010
01:25:29.960 --> 01:25:32.079
which is where all that stuff kind of comes from.

1011
01:25:32.239 --> 01:25:42.640
Stop squeaking. The idea is you do something, you cut

1012
01:25:43.079 --> 01:25:46.840
all that You basically cut the ties, not ties from people,

1013
01:25:46.880 --> 01:25:54.159
but you stop being able to go back so it'd

1014
01:25:54.199 --> 01:26:00.880
be the same as you know, you go somewhere and

1015
01:26:01.479 --> 01:26:06.840
you can't return, you have to keep going regardless, and

1016
01:26:07.279 --> 01:26:09.840
stopping my benefits or not really knowing them would be

1017
01:26:09.920 --> 01:26:18.239
like that. So sink or swim sort of situation. I

1018
01:26:18.279 --> 01:26:24.640
don't know, I had a thought about it. I definitely

1019
01:26:24.640 --> 01:26:27.800
feel a lot better about myself if I was, if

1020
01:26:27.800 --> 01:26:31.439
this was, if I was able to pay my own

1021
01:26:31.479 --> 01:26:36.039
way and you know, do it, you know, by doing this.

1022
01:26:36.239 --> 01:26:41.479
But I don't know, I don't know. He's hassling me.

1023
01:26:42.720 --> 01:26:45.079
I'm pretty sure he didn't used to be like this.

1024
01:26:47.560 --> 01:26:50.760
He's now big. And are you hungry? Stick your tongue

1025
01:26:50.760 --> 01:26:55.640
