00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:10.480
Hello, Welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name is Jason Newland.

2
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:18.519
This is what is this? Let me boy to sleep

3
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:28.559
Whisper Wednesday and Finnie. As soon as I start doing

4
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:32.799
his recording, he's up and awake. He was fast asleep

5
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:39.759
about thirty seconds ago. I think he just wants a

6
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:46.280
bit of a cuddle, so to say hello to everyone,

7
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:52.520
A big special hello to Ben, who is the only

8
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:56.439
person I know that likes the Whisper Wednesdays Wednesday Whisper

9
00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:59.479
whatever this is, I say, the only person I know

10
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:04.480
that likes they. They do get listened to by lots

11
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:09.079
of people, but just you know, I mean I know that,

12
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:15.719
Hi Ben, as I'm saying as high Vinnie, because hello

13
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:21.519
to Ben, he said hi as well, actually said no,

14
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.359
I'm don't have to do what you tell me. He's

15
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:34.519
very rude. So today's Wednesday, Fee, I've got to no

16
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:39.079
one do they were the data is? I think it's

17
00:01:39.159 --> 00:01:49.439
the eleventh of June twenty twenty five. I was thinking

18
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:54.120
about doing this recording, but I was watching something on

19
00:01:54.200 --> 00:02:00.879
TV and then there was this massive sound outside because

20
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:05.159
I had the window open, and I thought it's the

21
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:11.919
lawn moment. Just come in the lawn, which means it's loud,

22
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:18.759
but it doesn't last long. But it seemed to be

23
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:25.960
lasting a little bit longer than normal because the communal

24
00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:32.240
garden air is very small. It doesn't take more than

25
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:42.199
probably five minutes for them to come. And then they started.

26
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:46.159
I started to hear a Revin like that's my impression

27
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:49.080
of a Ravin, and I realized there was a motorbike

28
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:56.039
over the fence, so I had to close the window

29
00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:00.680
because there was way too loud. But when as the window,

30
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:07.280
the motorbike stopped, and now I can just hear loads

31
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:14.439
of voices. So I'm going to continue making this recording,

32
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:21.800
even though literally as we speak, I heard the person's

33
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:32.800
trying to start the motorbike again. It's just, yeah, it's

34
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:41.000
not it's very loud. It's very very loud. I might

35
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:46.439
just continue talking anyway, because you may not have it

36
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:51.439
might not be very loud on the microphone because he's

37
00:03:51.520 --> 00:04:01.560
literally outside over the fence and you might not hear it,

38
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:08.680
or it might be very faint. I can hear it, well,

39
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.719
I can't hear it now because it's not it's not going.

40
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:17.920
But anyway, oh yeah, please only listening when you can

41
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:26.519
safely goose your eyes. It's times like this that I

42
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:36.519
that I feel glad that yesterday I actually made use

43
00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:42.480
of the day and made some recordings. Because a day

44
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:46.959
when there's a motorbike being reved all day long, which

45
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:53.920
has happened well for a few hours anyway, it's I

46
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:59.279
just find it distracted to make a recording. I mean,

47
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:02.680
I can't make any kind of hypnosis and stuff like that.

48
00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:12.000
But yesterday added to a couple of new recordings as

49
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:19.879
well as the Drivia Tuesday. This is Whisper Wednesday, Wednesday

50
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:26.639
whispers Whisper Wednesdays. Now I'm trying to trying to stick

51
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:38.519
to the routine of Monday's boring objects Drivia Tuesday, Whisper Wednesday,

52
00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:44.720
and Q and a Friday. So that's for four days

53
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:51.680
when it's like a regular type of recording. So I

54
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:57.240
do try. I am trying, not very hard, but very

55
00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:04.680
minimally giving it a go. Oh yeah, oh yeah. I

56
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:10.000
found a new way and some exercise. I can't using

57
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:15.879
the word exercise very flimsily, but I took my little

58
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:26.120
one out for a w A lka and he started

59
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:32.879
pulling me towards the bridge. So I got this railway bridge,

60
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:36.759
and it's not even really used. I think it was

61
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:39.040
originally built because they were going to be building a

62
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:42.399
railway station there, and they never built the railway station,

63
00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:46.680
but they built a prayer new bridge in It's one

64
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.959
of those really nice bridges. I'd say really nice bridges.

65
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.319
I mean, you might not be into bridges, but it's

66
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:58.959
like metal and it there steps coming up also i'd

67
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:02.920
be cramp as well. So you on a bike or

68
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:11.240
in a wheelchair you can get access. And it's a big, old,

69
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:17.560
big old bridge. And for some reason Venue was trying

70
00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:20.959
to take me. I just wanted to take me away

71
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:26.399
from I think what it is he gets bored being

72
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:31.480
in the same little park every day. He wants to

73
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:37.720
go for a walk and explore other places. So I

74
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:40.319
just let him lead me the way. I just sometimes

75
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:45.480
I won't do that. I'll just follow him, or as

76
00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:48.680
my old friend and I used to say fully, I

77
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:56.240
used to follow him follow fully. And he led me

78
00:07:57.920 --> 00:08:04.000
to the the bridge and he started trying to walk

79
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:08.759
up the the ramp and I pulled him away and

80
00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:12.079
said no, and then he walked and he tried to

81
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:15.720
cut the steps. So I thought, when he clearly wants

82
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:19.199
to go up here, so I just followed him up

83
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:28.079
the steps. He walked across the bridge, and then I

84
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:31.439
think we went down the ramp. No, we went down

85
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:40.960
the steps, and then he wanted to walk further away,

86
00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:46.039
which would be leading us pretty much to nowhere, really,

87
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:57.279
and I thought no, but he clearly wants to have

88
00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:00.399
a good walk, and I need a walk.

89
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:00.879
I ne too.

90
00:09:02.399 --> 00:09:06.399
I get out walking, but I don't. I don't walk

91
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:12.840
any kind of real distance, not really. I don't think

92
00:09:12.879 --> 00:09:16.919
I get my ten thousand steps a day. I get

93
00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:21.200
a few thousand, but I don't think ten thousand. Maybe

94
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:26.320
I do, but I doubt it. I've never counted them.

95
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:28.960
It's quite hard, though, isn't if you count your steps

96
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:34.360
and then another dog walker says, hello, What am I

97
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.799
supposed to do? Is a wait a second, let me

98
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:40.840
just write down the steps that I've done so far?

99
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:49.639
Is I think there's a gadget you can get a

100
00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:57.440
step counter. There used to be this thing that you

101
00:09:57.480 --> 00:10:02.600
could use, which is basically it was like a wheel

102
00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:07.919
and you put it on the ground and you walked

103
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:12.080
with it, pushing it, and it measured the distance you went.

104
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:19.639
But I used to use I used to I used

105
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:23.000
to have one of them, and I'd use it sometimes

106
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:25.320
in London because I wanted to see how far it warmed.

107
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.120
It some very weird looks, but you can't. Yeah, apparently

108
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:36.639
this I think the step or meter things is just

109
00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:44.600
because you shake so literally. You could just I don't know,

110
00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:50.440
stand on one of those shaky machines and it looks

111
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:54.799
like you walked for miles when in fact you haven't

112
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:59.240
done anything. Or you could bounce on a bouncy castle.

113
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:09.879
That would be exercise as well, wouldn't it. Yeah, I

114
00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:15.159
wonder if it registers steps on the Moon. I don't

115
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:19.240
mean we're not walking, I mean somebody that was on

116
00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:26.200
the moon. But then I suppose because it's so advanced,

117
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:32.720
isn't it all the technology that they probably are registering

118
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:38.440
the distance did the astronauts are traveling anyway, and how

119
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:42.360
many steps they take. Plus they don't have to make

120
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:48.080
as many steps today because that almost being pulled into space.

121
00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:54.039
But the heavy boots keep them down, which I never understood.

122
00:11:54.840 --> 00:12:04.679
How heavy are those shoes? Wouldn't it make more sense

123
00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:09.279
right because if the shoes are really really heavy, because

124
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:12.600
you imagine if we didn't have any gravity on this planet,

125
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:18.840
we would just end up in the sky. How heavy

126
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.399
would we have to have how heavy would our shoes

127
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.519
have to be to keep us stuck to the ground,

128
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:35.799
Because I've seen movies where no gravity and things cars

129
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:39.639
are just being poled up into the air because there's

130
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:45.600
no gravity o caase a movie. But if that's the case,

131
00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:51.480
does that mean that the astronauts shoes, slippers or boots

132
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:57.600
or whatever. Boots. I guess the astronauts boots well into

133
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:04.080
boots are heavier than a car. So if that's the case,

134
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:09.759
then that's gotta be part of the reason why it's

135
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:17.840
so hard to get into space, because it's not so

136
00:13:17.919 --> 00:13:23.879
much getting through the atmosphere. The rocket is the weight

137
00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:29.720
of those shoes, the astronauts' shoes. So when it makes

138
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:34.120
sense if they just add a little I don't know,

139
00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:41.440
on the Moon or on the space station, a shoe

140
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:46.320
cupard or something where they can just leave the shoes

141
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:51.399
there so they could wear slippers or crocs going up

142
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:54.639
and then when they get there they can put on

143
00:13:54.879 --> 00:14:03.120
and slip into their astronaut wellies. They are really heavy,

144
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:06.799
they might end up using a lot less fuel. They

145
00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:17.000
might get that quicker. I might just solved a big issue. See,

146
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:25.360
it's amazing what you can do and you're not even trying.

147
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:32.120
That's the problem. But I bet you're not one astronaut

148
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:42.440
or not one astro physicist or the scientist is listening

149
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:47.519
to this, because if they were, this could change the

150
00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:56.240
whole the whole landscape of space travel. In fact, it

151
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:02.240
could be the break needed that could bridge. Got back

152
00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:11.159
to the talking about bridges, could bridge towards further exploration

153
00:15:12.919 --> 00:15:15.240
because it'd be able to get in and out of

154
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:20.399
space a lot quicker. And they could just start to

155
00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:24.200
store stuff in space on the space station of on

156
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:27.960
the Moon and have that as like a like a lockup,

157
00:15:29.960 --> 00:15:33.279
you know, like an old lockup, just keep their spare

158
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.879
stuff in there. Well, they could even open shops up really,

159
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:41.519
but I guess that's for the future, like a shoe shop.

160
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:49.720
And helmets. Do they need their helmet while when they're

161
00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:56.559
traveling up again, I'm not sure. I thought they container

162
00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:01.679
though in was pressurized, which meant they'll be able to breathe.

163
00:16:02.799 --> 00:16:10.639
I might be wrong. What they could do is fill

164
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:14.960
you know, the airbags that they have on their back,

165
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:18.759
which gives them oxygen. Why not fill them with oxygen?

166
00:16:20.679 --> 00:16:24.759
Like thousands of them and just keep taking them into

167
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:31.879
space so that eventually we have unlimited supply of oxygen

168
00:16:31.960 --> 00:16:39.320
up there. But I don't know would that run out

169
00:16:39.399 --> 00:16:43.240
the oxygen in this world we kept filling. If you

170
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:51.240
kept filling an oxygen tank up oxygen the air and

171
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:53.840
you did that, you got millions of billions and billions

172
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:59.200
of them with the oxygen run out. And another thing

173
00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:06.680
is that, what's the life you know, the life span

174
00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:12.240
of oxygen. Does he go off after a few years?

175
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:17.240
Does he go moldy? Because I used to think the

176
00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:28.799
soup ten soup lasts forever. I remember seeing these again.

177
00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:31.079
I'm not sure if there were documentaries or if there

178
00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:35.759
are movies or TV shows where people would be climbing

179
00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:39.960
up a mountain and they get to a shack or

180
00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:47.160
some kind of wooden the house and it'd be a cellar.

181
00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:50.359
Would it be like a like we have lots of

182
00:17:50.440 --> 00:17:55.359
food and stuff, but all tin food because bananas don't

183
00:17:55.440 --> 00:18:03.279
last long on a mountains. But they go there and

184
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:06.440
the last time anyone was there was like one hundred

185
00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:12.599
years ago, because sort of wrote in the book, I

186
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:15.279
was here one hundred years ago or I don't know whatever,

187
00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:21.880
and they'd open up the food in the tin, and

188
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:23.799
they'd eat it and it'd be all yum yum, yum

189
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:31.920
yum yum. Mind you, cat food would taste amazing if

190
00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:35.000
you hadn't eaten for five days, wouldn't it. It would

191
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:41.000
be the most delicious thing you'll ever eat it. And

192
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:43.319
it tastes even better if you didn't know his cat food.

193
00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:48.799
So don't present it in a cat food ball. Probably

194
00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:51.720
not that you're cannot present it. I mean, if someone's

195
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:55.799
hungry and you give us some food and they haven't

196
00:18:55.839 --> 00:19:00.000
eating for days, you're not gonna be worried about present day.

197
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:05.559
I suppose they put it, be happy just to eat

198
00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:12.400
it out of the tin. What I used to think

199
00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:21.599
the wall tins lasted like forever, I say forever, maybe

200
00:19:21.640 --> 00:19:25.319
not thousands of years, but just a long long time

201
00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:32.279
because they were air tight and they were built to last. Well,

202
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:34.960
let me tell you the tins are today are not

203
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:41.240
built to last. I had some tins of soup and

204
00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:46.400
they were good ones like the Hines. They weren't, you know,

205
00:19:46.519 --> 00:19:50.440
they weren't like Little Iron Brand. Not did this anything

206
00:19:50.519 --> 00:19:56.079
wrong with Little Iron Brand. I'm just saying it was Heines.

207
00:19:56.599 --> 00:20:00.000
The most I would say put it the most faith

208
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:08.359
miss soup maker in this country anyway. Heinz tomato soup

209
00:20:10.880 --> 00:20:15.319
and most people, even if they don't, I have soup.

210
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:18.759
I nearly said, eat soup. But soup is eating. It's drunk,

211
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:23.720
isn't it. Even if it's got vegetables in and stuff.

212
00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:28.799
It's just lumpy water, lumpy flavored water. That's what it is.

213
00:20:28.880 --> 00:20:35.880
It's not a meal at best. It's a starter's Did

214
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:37.559
I ever tell you about the day I went on

215
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:43.799
and she said would you like some lunch before we

216
00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:48.160
go out? And I thought, oh yeah. She gave me

217
00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:54.960
soup and one piece of bread. I was like, well,

218
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:59.559
am I is this a day or is this my

219
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:02.440
first stay in prison? I mean, what, what the heck?

220
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:07.640
I'm literally I get fed in prison. That was what

221
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:13.759
was going on. Those are the days where my belly

222
00:21:13.759 --> 00:21:20.519
didn't enjoy soup. I needed food. The same thing happened

223
00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:25.960
when I visited my dad and my stepmam. And this

224
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:36.359
was I think it was December two thousand and eleven.

225
00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:44.039
December two thousand and eleven, and I just wanted to

226
00:21:44.039 --> 00:21:48.759
tell them because I'd just been diagnosed with bipolar and

227
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.799
I wanted to tell them because it was. I don't know,

228
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:55.000
it just seemed like the right thing to let them know.

229
00:21:56.279 --> 00:21:58.319
I think when my dad, well maybe both of them

230
00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:05.359
looked at each other like that explains it. But what

231
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:09.559
I remember about that meeting is we met in this

232
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:18.440
restaurant cafe. Place had soup, soup. I had no money,

233
00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:23.039
so I can They paid for the meal and they

234
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:29.319
had soup. In fact, I'm pretty sort of conversations. Should

235
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:32.960
we just all had some soup. I'm like, I thought

236
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:37.079
they were joking soup. We could have done it at home.

237
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:44.400
I don't know why I'm focused on soup today. I

238
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:49.160
just I like soup. I'm not prejudiced against soup. I'm not,

239
00:22:50.839 --> 00:23:01.319
you know. I do like chicken soup, like cream cream

240
00:23:01.359 --> 00:23:05.319
of chicken or I don't know, creamy, that's nice. I'm

241
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:11.480
not so beef broth. No, not so much vegetable soup. Okay,

242
00:23:12.640 --> 00:23:21.640
tomato soup and takes the boxes for me. But it's

243
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:27.279
not a meal. It's not a meal. What they're thinking

244
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:29.920
about it, maybe I'm going to start is weird. It's

245
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.480
now start off moaning about soup. Now, start to think

246
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:37.640
I'd quite like a nice bowl of soup. What a

247
00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:43.480
strange brain I have a nice bowl of soup and

248
00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:47.880
a few, maybe two or three slices of toast. It

249
00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:51.440
seemed like a real yummy thing. But I don't any

250
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:54.599
I don't have any soup I did. That's why I'm

251
00:23:54.640 --> 00:23:58.680
telling you a story. I had some soup. I can't.

252
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:03.480
That's the pointers. They're supposed to last a long time.

253
00:24:06.599 --> 00:24:11.680
I went into the cupboard and next to the cooker

254
00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:15.279
on the left hand side, underneath and don't go in

255
00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:20.240
that cupboard really ever. And I went in there just

256
00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:27.119
to look what's in there. Tins of souperboy in there.

257
00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:34.559
So I went to pick one up and it was empty. Well,

258
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:41.240
it also leaked, so basically all the soup cans had

259
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:49.279
disintegrated to the point where the lids came off, the

260
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:54.720
contents leaked out and also disintegrated. There was no smell

261
00:24:54.839 --> 00:24:55.359
or anything.

262
00:24:55.359 --> 00:24:55.880
It's just.

263
00:24:57.319 --> 00:25:05.440
It'd been there for maybe six years, seven years, completely destroyed.

264
00:25:08.440 --> 00:25:12.119
And the ironic thing is, on that particular day, really

265
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:18.839
fencing a bowl of soup, I remember thinking, why don't

266
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.519
I drink more soup? I really used to like soup,

267
00:25:24.200 --> 00:25:28.440
which I did, but I was a kid back then,

268
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:34.440
and I used to get soup whenever I was a

269
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:37.839
little bit balling. Maybe i'd coloring from school or maybe

270
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:41.720
half the day off, and I remember sitting at the table.

271
00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:45.079
My stepmom would be looking after me, and she'd make

272
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:51.880
me some soup, and I'd watch Sesame String on television

273
00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:55.519
because I think Sesame Street used to be on about

274
00:25:55.559 --> 00:26:05.640
midday and it was great color. Bits of toast. A

275
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:07.519
cup of tea as well, though that was a bit

276
00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:12.839
weird because it feels like you have a liquid drink

277
00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:16.720
with solid food. It almost felt like I should be

278
00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:21.680
hearing some kind of solid drink, maybe an icicle or something.

279
00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:30.680
I don't know. You can't really get solid drinks, can you,

280
00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:35.079
other than a slushie. Maybe that's quite solid. I'm not

281
00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:38.680
sure they would fit together with soup, though what soup.

282
00:26:43.799 --> 00:26:46.720
I suppose. I feel a little bit nostalgic towards some

283
00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:52.359
of those times because I got to spend time with

284
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:58.480
my stepmom and me and a no one else. There

285
00:26:58.640 --> 00:27:02.319
was just a nice squat piece for no arguments, you know,

286
00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:08.319
and I just like I didn't miss soup. It's weird

287
00:27:08.359 --> 00:27:15.200
how quickly soup cools down, but you think like it

288
00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:18.640
can be like super boiling a hole and you put

289
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:22.880
the spoon in because the spoon is metal, it conducts

290
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:25.960
the heat. I think that might be, you know, but

291
00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:29.799
the spoon is very hot and you're not blowing on

292
00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:37.640
the spooner and then the soups squirting off the spoon.

293
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.880
It depends how hard you blow it. Guess could just

294
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:45.880
like spray over everyone else at the table. But or

295
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:48.240
you make a little dent in it, don't you almost

296
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:53.599
like if you mind? Are you used to do these?

297
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:55.359
I used to try and so I have a spoon,

298
00:27:55.640 --> 00:27:58.559
not look at it. I'd fill it with soap, but

299
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.519
I try and blow it. So they had parted in

300
00:28:01.559 --> 00:28:04.839
the middle a bit like Moses, did you know with

301
00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:12.559
the rit scene, and I just pretend, you know, to

302
00:28:12.599 --> 00:28:16.599
hear music, pretend to hear music. Sometimes I would hear

303
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:25.839
music if music was being played. The yeah, tomato soup

304
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:31.960
or any kind of soup would be an opportunity to

305
00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:40.440
reenact the Moses scene than the Bible. I'm sure not

306
00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:48.240
the only one that did that. So that was pretty

307
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:56.720
good special effects considering the movie. It was like the sixties,

308
00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:04.079
the Moses Pioneers. I think I don't know if it

309
00:29:04.119 --> 00:29:08.839
was just the Bible was the movie? There was another

310
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:14.200
one the greatest story ever told. Maybe it was actually

311
00:29:14.279 --> 00:29:23.960
called Moses. But yeah, that scene where they're walking across

312
00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:29.319
the sea and all the sea the sea wall's kind

313
00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:32.759
of just splashing, but it's not. That's the weird thing

314
00:29:32.799 --> 00:29:40.599
about it. That's the It didn't seem realistic in one sense,

315
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:45.680
because if you had the sea parted and you're walking

316
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:49.599
down and there's a bigger wall and both, you know

317
00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:59.440
there'd be some splash back when there not one splash,

318
00:29:59.839 --> 00:30:03.119
just water along knowing, you know, you'd think they'd be

319
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:07.519
when you wouldn't moan about a little a few splashes.

320
00:30:08.799 --> 00:30:11.720
You know you'll get to the other side, and Moses

321
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:15.519
would be fitting pretty proud of them. So probably, and

322
00:30:15.559 --> 00:30:20.119
everyone's saying well done, Moses, and one person says, oh, actually,

323
00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:31.400
my shoes are ruined. That's another thing, isn't it. I

324
00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:33.839
have I have to clean my glasses because I'm all

325
00:30:33.839 --> 00:30:39.559
the splash back from the water. When they walked across,

326
00:30:40.160 --> 00:30:43.799
the ground was dry. Now the ground would be wouldn't

327
00:30:43.799 --> 00:30:51.720
it be muddy? I know, it's just details, but you know,

328
00:30:54.400 --> 00:31:01.720
maybe that's not the most unrealistic part of the whole story. Maybe.

329
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:09.839
So we're walking over this bridge and I thought to myself,

330
00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:19.680
this is quite a distance, really walking over, going down

331
00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:26.960
the steps, walking all the way back the long ramp

332
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:33.759
back to the bridge again crossing over, walking down the

333
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:37.880
steps they're walking up, then the other ramp on the

334
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:41.319
other side, which is like up one end and then

335
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:47.400
back again. I thought, you know, if I started doing that,

336
00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.160
maybe did that ten times a day. I don't mean

337
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:57.839
going up there ten times and walking over it once more.

338
00:31:58.319 --> 00:32:04.759
Maybe go in there once and doing it ten times,

339
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:18.000
maybe twice and doing it five times. Or I could

340
00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:25.440
carry it five times and do it twice. I could

341
00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:31.640
go there three times and do it three three times

342
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:37.559
three six Oh no, I could do three in a bin.

343
00:32:41.319 --> 00:32:47.200
Or I could do it three times and on every

344
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:50.480
third day do an extra time. Maybe do a fourth

345
00:32:54.880 --> 00:33:01.839
that makes sense. Three six nine, No way at three

346
00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:06.799
six nine three six nine, No, every other day to

347
00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:17.279
no three six nine, so nine nine nine nine nine

348
00:33:17.400 --> 00:33:20.319
nine nine nine nine. So that'll be ten days. It'd

349
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:26.640
be ninety instead of one hundred. So on the tenth

350
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:35.519
day I could do twenty, or on the fifth day

351
00:33:36.119 --> 00:33:43.200
do fifteen, and not twentieth day to fifteen, which you mean,

352
00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:47.079
it would be the Gubiner doing ten a day. I

353
00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:52.880
think I'm not sure if it's really necessary to get

354
00:33:52.880 --> 00:34:01.960
too bogged down in specifics regarding how many times I

355
00:34:02.200 --> 00:34:06.680
is to walk over it, But I thought maybe that

356
00:34:06.759 --> 00:34:12.159
would be useful to get a little bit more exercise

357
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:19.679
and you know, get out. Plus there's not really anyone around.

358
00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:28.519
There are people around, but not much. And the whole

359
00:34:29.079 --> 00:34:31.760
the whole way up and down, it's up the ramp

360
00:34:33.400 --> 00:34:37.119
and across the bridge is all He's got side star

361
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:40.960
ways off an he can't wander off. He kind of

362
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:46.519
can only go one way or go backwards or stop,

363
00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:51.280
which he likes to stop. He just likes to do

364
00:34:51.400 --> 00:34:56.320
the opposite to what I want him to do. Earlier

365
00:34:56.360 --> 00:35:00.320
today we went into the park and the the thing

366
00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:04.719
he did was he stole another dog's ball, Amber's ball,

367
00:35:06.360 --> 00:35:10.840
that's the name of the dog. He would not let

368
00:35:10.920 --> 00:35:14.360
it go, and the ball was too big for his mouth.

369
00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:19.760
He was huge, but he loved it. He fell in

370
00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:23.039
love with his ball. It's almost like it was the

371
00:35:23.079 --> 00:35:29.480
most precious item in the whole world. I literally had

372
00:35:29.519 --> 00:35:31.719
to pick him up and price it out of his

373
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:35.199
mouth so I could give it back to the dog.

374
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:39.639
He didn't want to give it back. There was one

375
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:43.880
point right, and I kind of picked him up a

376
00:35:43.880 --> 00:35:46.039
little bit to get it out of his mouth, and

377
00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:48.960
he wouldn't let it go, so I started message in

378
00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:53.719
his hands. Now he does not let me do that

379
00:35:54.280 --> 00:36:01.119
ever without growling then snapping, doesn't mind me doing that.

380
00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:04.719
By this occasion, he couldn't do anything because this ball

381
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:09.039
was in his mouth. So I'm thinking, next hole, the

382
00:36:09.079 --> 00:36:14.320
next time I want to carry his toenails, I'm just

383
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:16.920
going to stick a ball, get him to hold the ball,

384
00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:19.239
and then he won't be what I want to do.

385
00:36:23.719 --> 00:36:27.920
Maybe I think it's good though, because he needs to

386
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:31.920
spend more time walking on the pavement, because his toenails

387
00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:35.039
do need to get trimmed a little bit. They're not long,

388
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:41.800
but they're not sure either. But that's weird. The feet,

389
00:36:42.559 --> 00:36:47.559
his feet toenails are always sure, but his finger tonails,

390
00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:52.239
so his toetol, his toe toenails, his finger toenails. His

391
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:59.039
fingernails are longer than his toenails. And it's not like

392
00:36:59.159 --> 00:37:06.840
he's walking sideways to his feet or on the paper

393
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:10.519
and his hands are on the grass. You know, that

394
00:37:10.519 --> 00:37:13.199
would make sense, and you know if that's why there

395
00:37:13.199 --> 00:37:17.760
are different lengths, but no normally he does running forward

396
00:37:19.199 --> 00:37:21.800
and he's if on the path, where is on the

397
00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:28.719
grass or in the mud or wherever. Although he does

398
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:34.320
love running into the long grass. This is this thing.

399
00:37:34.679 --> 00:37:36.920
I don't know if other parts of the country do it,

400
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:40.599
or other parts of the world to do this. The

401
00:37:40.760 --> 00:37:49.360
council afforded the Lord mower, people who cut the grass

402
00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:55.880
in the park, to leave certain areas wild. When I

403
00:37:55.960 --> 00:38:00.519
say wild, I don't mean angry. You know, they're just

404
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:02.960
walking up to their bit of grass and teasing it

405
00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:09.039
just is dead, leaving it and not cutting it. So

406
00:38:09.360 --> 00:38:21.360
it's something about well encouraging wildlife. And then after about

407
00:38:21.760 --> 00:38:29.719
a year they cut it. Another dog walker pointed out, well,

408
00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:33.400
first of all, I don't think there's a huge amount

409
00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:38.480
of wildlife. Maybe there is insects and stuff. That's definitely true,

410
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:47.360
because those grasp leave things they can go on to

411
00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:49.800
him if I let him in the long grass. So

412
00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:52.719
I don't. And before I used to have him off

413
00:38:52.719 --> 00:38:55.719
the lead in the bark and he used to love

414
00:38:55.800 --> 00:38:59.360
the long grass being come home with all these ticks

415
00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:03.519
and stuff like that. Now I don't let him go

416
00:39:03.519 --> 00:39:08.639
in a long grass and he's got nothing, hasn't it

417
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:16.840
any for every year. Hasn't it anything on him? And

418
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:22.960
someone I think a couple of days ago another dog

419
00:39:22.960 --> 00:39:27.000
walker was pointing out, it's all fair and well, you

420
00:39:27.039 --> 00:39:32.480
know they're encouraging wildlife, but what happens to that wildlife

421
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:37.760
when they cut the grass? That's a fair point in it.

422
00:39:40.519 --> 00:39:49.639
The thing is when it comes to wildlife. I literally

423
00:39:49.719 --> 00:40:00.679
lived in the countryside. There's a farm at the end

424
00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:03.960
of each road. At the end of every road, there

425
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:10.119
was a farm. For turn left, there's farms. Every turn right,

426
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:15.360
there's farms. If I go through the park and keep

427
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:21.199
going through there, there's farms. It's just farms everywhere. By farms,

428
00:40:21.239 --> 00:40:28.280
I mean growing farms, not animal farms. I tell you

429
00:40:28.280 --> 00:40:31.239
what animal farm. The move It was very different from

430
00:40:31.280 --> 00:40:38.960
the book. But yeah, though there's not really so don't

431
00:40:39.000 --> 00:40:43.119
get to hear cocks every morning, like cock to do

432
00:40:43.639 --> 00:40:48.840
or whatever they do. That wouldn't bother me really because

433
00:40:48.840 --> 00:40:54.559
I'm up quite early anyway. I'm sure there are some

434
00:40:54.599 --> 00:40:58.119
farms like that around here, but it's really just like

435
00:40:58.360 --> 00:41:04.920
growing crops. But they're everywhere all around here. His whole

436
00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:10.199
area is farms. There again, the whole country is pretty

437
00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:18.480
much farmland with some towns and some cities and some beaches,

438
00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:25.119
but it's just a huge amount of farmland here. Apparently

439
00:41:26.719 --> 00:41:30.360
the bloke who owns the dice and vacuum cleaner thing,

440
00:41:31.400 --> 00:41:35.440
he's the biggest farm owner in the country, or one

441
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:42.480
of them, And in America, the biggest farm owner I

442
00:41:42.559 --> 00:41:48.320
think is Bill Gates. That's not just farms, that's land.

443
00:41:48.440 --> 00:41:55.880
Isn't it to be a landowners? If you own the farms,

444
00:41:55.960 --> 00:42:04.800
you almost kind of own the food. Wow. Or a's

445
00:42:04.800 --> 00:42:11.840
a plane going past? Maybe not I taste strange? Oh yeah,

446
00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:23.639
can you hear that nicer train? It's a train. I

447
00:42:23.840 --> 00:42:28.320
just realized. I don't think it's very windy today, because

448
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:35.199
normally only on days when it's very mild, very calm,

449
00:42:35.440 --> 00:42:39.920
that I can hear the trains. When it's windy, I

450
00:42:40.440 --> 00:42:52.000
generally can't hear the trains. It's lovely out there, blue sky, sunny.

451
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:55.039
It's going to be difficult because I got my jumper,

452
00:42:58.320 --> 00:43:04.679
I will. That's kind of strange because I have the

453
00:43:04.719 --> 00:43:08.199
window open most of the time, but with that window closed,

454
00:43:09.400 --> 00:43:17.639
it's so much quieter because that literally just you know,

455
00:43:18.159 --> 00:43:22.239
in the garden, I can hear I can't hear what

456
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:25.079
they're saying. Quite often I can't hear what they're saying anyway,

457
00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:32.000
not that I want to, but it's weirdly enough, unless

458
00:43:32.079 --> 00:43:37.719
my hearing has changed, I can't really hear them very well.

459
00:43:39.000 --> 00:43:41.360
I'm not complaining. It's lovely.

460
00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:52.760
Oh yes, So yesterday I walked twice over these this bridge.

461
00:43:54.400 --> 00:43:57.920
I walked, I went up the steps, went over, went

462
00:43:58.039 --> 00:44:02.480
down the steps, walked back up, and then back up again.

463
00:44:02.559 --> 00:44:09.480
Because the or is it the the ramp is in

464
00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:13.800
two parts. It's quite long. It's in two parts, so

465
00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:16.079
you've got one end. You can't one bit, then you

466
00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:18.440
turn around and you come back the other bit, and

467
00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:23.000
it corradually goes up each one, and then you end

468
00:44:23.079 --> 00:44:26.960
up at the top of the Basically you end up

469
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:30.440
exactly where you were befo where it was before before

470
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:39.440
I went down the snaps. And it's built for large traffic. Really,

471
00:44:40.760 --> 00:44:43.039
it is a kind of it's the same kind of

472
00:44:43.079 --> 00:44:46.039
bridge that you would see at a busy train station,

473
00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:52.000
but there's no train station there. There is a train track.

474
00:44:54.320 --> 00:44:55.960
I think part of the reason they did it was

475
00:44:56.000 --> 00:44:59.960
for safety, which is fair enough, because people used to

476
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:05.679
just across the track. There was no way of monitoring it,

477
00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:10.639
so it's a good thing that it's got something over there.

478
00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:15.159
But one of her neighbors when I moved in ten

479
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:19.239
years ago, said that they spent like half a million

480
00:45:19.320 --> 00:45:24.440
pound putting that bridge up. It still looks in good condition.

481
00:45:25.239 --> 00:45:32.639
It's hardly been used something. Seriously, I reckon the amount

482
00:45:32.679 --> 00:45:36.760
of people that cross that bridge in a year would

483
00:45:36.800 --> 00:45:40.320
be the same amount of people that would cross a

484
00:45:40.360 --> 00:45:54.000
busy train station in a day. Probably less. In fact, yeah,

485
00:45:54.119 --> 00:45:58.719
probably if you get fifty people a day crossing that bridge,

486
00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:03.679
I'd be surprised. Maybe one hundred. I'd be surprised if

487
00:46:03.679 --> 00:46:09.519
it was that high. Seriously, as nor lies it would

488
00:46:09.519 --> 00:46:15.679
I classes two people because I went over twice? Or

489
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:23.639
did I go over three times? No, I went over twice,

490
00:46:26.159 --> 00:46:29.280
but I went over back towards and that's four times

491
00:46:29.320 --> 00:46:32.880
actually yesterday. So I went down the down the So

492
00:46:32.880 --> 00:46:40.119
I went up the steps, across the bridge, down the steps,

493
00:46:41.960 --> 00:46:48.280
back up the ramp, across the bridge, down the steps,

494
00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:57.800
back up the ramp, across the bridge, down the steps,

495
00:46:59.719 --> 00:47:04.760
and it back up the ramp, crossed the bridge and

496
00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:08.440
down the steps, and then we went home.

497
00:47:10.360 --> 00:47:10.960
So what is there?

498
00:47:11.519 --> 00:47:22.440
One, two, three, four? So we crossed the bridge four times,

499
00:47:23.159 --> 00:47:28.880
So four times we went up and down the ramp

500
00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:33.840
one two. I don't know if he said four times

501
00:47:33.840 --> 00:47:39.320
we passed over the bridge. So how many times do

502
00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:42.920
we go up the ramp? So we go up the steps,

503
00:47:42.960 --> 00:47:47.239
across the bridge, go down the steps on the other side.

504
00:47:47.920 --> 00:47:54.519
So up the ramp. So one up the ramp, crossover,

505
00:47:55.920 --> 00:48:02.920
down the steps, then up that ramp again, then crossover

506
00:48:03.119 --> 00:48:09.960
down the steps, up that ramp, crossover and down the steps.

507
00:48:11.840 --> 00:48:18.239
It's just three. Okay, let me do this again. Up

508
00:48:18.280 --> 00:48:24.840
the steps, across the bridge, down the steps, and then

509
00:48:24.920 --> 00:48:31.360
up the ramp, crossing over the bridge, down the steps,

510
00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:36.519
then up the ramp, cross over the bridge, down the steps,

511
00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:41.760
up the ramp, cross over the bridge, and down the steps.

512
00:48:44.719 --> 00:48:52.840
So how many times is that across the bridge? One two, three, four?

513
00:48:54.199 --> 00:48:57.840
So it's only three ramps. I walked up the ramp

514
00:48:57.920 --> 00:49:11.320
three times, one two three. There's a classed as four,

515
00:49:12.679 --> 00:49:16.960
you know, because I've crossed four times. I don't know.

516
00:49:17.760 --> 00:49:22.000
Maybe if I walked up the ramp the first time,

517
00:49:22.599 --> 00:49:27.599
crossed over, went down the steps, then went up the

518
00:49:27.679 --> 00:49:31.880
ramp the other side, walked down the steps, went up

519
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:37.480
the ramp, or what I could do? No, yeah, I mean,

520
00:49:37.519 --> 00:49:42.639
I could just walk up the ramp, cross over the bridge,

521
00:49:43.360 --> 00:49:47.880
go down the ramp, and then just turn back and

522
00:49:47.920 --> 00:50:00.880
walk up the ramp became but just I don't know, Yeah,

523
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:05.480
it's a weird one. I'm already sure it's same, but

524
00:50:05.760 --> 00:50:09.599
more maybe walk up the ramp, cross over the bridge,

525
00:50:10.039 --> 00:50:13.400
go down the steps that walk up that ramp, us

526
00:50:13.519 --> 00:50:17.039
over and down the steps, walk up with that, so

527
00:50:17.119 --> 00:50:27.800
I don't walk up any steps. But technically the thing

528
00:50:27.880 --> 00:50:30.079
is I was thinking, is it better for me to

529
00:50:30.199 --> 00:50:35.840
walk up the steps, because that's more exercise. But at

530
00:50:35.840 --> 00:50:40.239
the same time, if I'm walking down a ramp, that's

531
00:50:40.320 --> 00:50:47.639
not really put a lot of energy, is it. That's

532
00:50:48.159 --> 00:50:52.519
because I mean it's not like steep steep, but it's

533
00:50:52.599 --> 00:51:02.960
steep still. You know this guy is walking upwards. Yeah,

534
00:51:03.159 --> 00:51:06.760
I don't think i'd want to roll every ball up there.

535
00:51:08.480 --> 00:51:11.400
Definitely didn't want to try to roll a skate up there.

536
00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:20.000
Just gravity it, yeah, because it I might fall back.

537
00:51:26.800 --> 00:51:29.599
I don't know, I have to think about it. I

538
00:51:29.760 --> 00:51:31.719
just thought it'd be quite nice if I had this

539
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:37.039
like nice space to take him over a few times.

540
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:43.840
And another thing I was thinking I could do is

541
00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:47.880
walk up and down my steps where I live across stairs.

542
00:51:49.360 --> 00:51:53.760
I maybe try to walk up and down, start off,

543
00:51:54.280 --> 00:51:56.760
maybe doing it twice, and then work it up. So

544
00:51:56.840 --> 00:52:00.320
I'm doing walking up and down maybe one hundred times

545
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:05.360
a day, like in one go, just as an exercise thing.

546
00:52:05.920 --> 00:52:13.920
But I don't know. I'm not sure. I've started to

547
00:52:14.199 --> 00:52:22.719
press ups again and doing some exercise with my weights

548
00:52:23.639 --> 00:52:27.599
and doing leg raises in bed for my stomach. So

549
00:52:28.719 --> 00:52:30.800
I'm kind of because I took a little bit of

550
00:52:30.800 --> 00:52:33.800
a break for probably two weeks. Well, I wasn't really

551
00:52:33.840 --> 00:52:44.760
doing much exercise at all, not even the weights, not crouching.

552
00:52:44.840 --> 00:52:50.360
What do they call it crouching, I don't know. Whatever

553
00:52:50.360 --> 00:52:53.079
it is that I do for my lower back while

554
00:52:53.119 --> 00:52:58.119
I hold weights. I've not done that for a while.

555
00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:01.679
I did the other day, but I've not done it

556
00:53:01.719 --> 00:53:08.960
regularly every day like like I used to. And part

557
00:53:08.960 --> 00:53:12.559
of the reason for that is because at the weekend

558
00:53:13.840 --> 00:53:19.840
I readjusted my bedroom, not purposefully thinking, oh, I'm going

559
00:53:19.880 --> 00:53:23.440
to readjust my bedroom. I didn't wake up that morning

560
00:53:23.480 --> 00:53:27.960
on Saturday thinking, oh, you jumped out of bed with

561
00:53:28.159 --> 00:53:31.000
full excitement. I'm going to move my chair to a

562
00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:34.800
different part of the room. I don't mean that It's

563
00:53:35.000 --> 00:53:39.400
just I was getting the microphones out of the storage

564
00:53:39.440 --> 00:53:43.800
room setting them up. So I got one hair on

565
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:47.920
my chair near my chair, attached to a table. I

566
00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:52.960
got one next to my bed. I had one attached

567
00:53:53.000 --> 00:53:55.840
so I can make videos. But I don't think I

568
00:53:55.920 --> 00:54:02.559
can do videos anymore. I just I prefer audio. It's

569
00:54:02.599 --> 00:54:06.360
an old saying. You know, some people have got they've

570
00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:14.239
got a face for radio, and I'm one of them.

571
00:54:14.280 --> 00:54:18.800
I think it's possibly a disappointment if someone sees me

572
00:54:19.639 --> 00:54:22.039
like they might be listening to me for a long time.

573
00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:25.920
Some people will be listening to me for years and

574
00:54:26.039 --> 00:54:29.199
then they they get curious and they go on to

575
00:54:29.320 --> 00:54:34.440
the YouTube channel and see me. I think, well, now

576
00:54:34.519 --> 00:54:44.159
that's ruined. That's ruined everything. So you know, it's not

577
00:54:44.280 --> 00:54:53.119
like I'm not hiding myself. But plus, I think with video,

578
00:54:55.559 --> 00:54:59.519
I've never liked pictures. I'm not. I don't mean I've

579
00:54:59.519 --> 00:55:02.119
never liked the picture I've ever seen ever. I mean

580
00:55:02.159 --> 00:55:10.559
I've never really enjoyed a picture of me because I

581
00:55:10.599 --> 00:55:18.119
don't think photographs necessarily show the person, but a video

582
00:55:18.320 --> 00:55:24.119
can you know your personality can show in a video.

583
00:55:25.239 --> 00:55:30.639
You don't smile and frowning facial expressions, the voice, all

584
00:55:30.679 --> 00:55:35.199
that stuff, movement, which I guess is part of the

585
00:55:35.239 --> 00:55:44.559
whole video processes it movement, but I didn't. I feel

586
00:55:44.679 --> 00:55:46.880
I've done that. Now I've been there. I did. I

587
00:55:47.000 --> 00:55:52.840
spent years doing videos, and there's a little part of

588
00:55:52.840 --> 00:56:01.159
me thinking I just wish that. I just don't really

589
00:56:01.159 --> 00:56:08.239
want to make videos. I prefer audio. This is more

590
00:56:08.280 --> 00:56:12.119
relaxing for me. This is where I can really just

591
00:56:12.239 --> 00:56:15.920
be myself because if I've got a video camera there,

592
00:56:16.119 --> 00:56:20.119
I've got a tendency of I don't know if it's

593
00:56:20.159 --> 00:56:27.599
so much showing off, but I definitely feel very self conscious,

594
00:56:29.480 --> 00:56:33.280
feel very self conscious. At no point do I forget

595
00:56:33.320 --> 00:56:39.320
that the camera's pointing at me with the microphone. This

596
00:56:39.400 --> 00:56:41.679
is almost the most natural thing in the world for

597
00:56:41.760 --> 00:56:48.800
me to just talking to a microphone. It's there's no effort.

598
00:56:49.880 --> 00:56:53.679
I think that comes across that clearly, there's no effort.

599
00:56:53.760 --> 00:56:59.320
That's why it's it's so awful because no energy, no effort.

600
00:57:00.079 --> 00:57:08.679
I plan it, It's real, this is just me, and

601
00:57:10.280 --> 00:57:16.239
I don't necessarily think that that happens as much on

602
00:57:16.280 --> 00:57:23.800
a video because I just I feel self conscious. I mean,

603
00:57:25.559 --> 00:57:27.760
I didn't enjoy it when I had a hair, but

604
00:57:27.920 --> 00:57:36.519
now now that my hair's kind of it's really weird,

605
00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:44.679
like I got a bald patch of the back and

606
00:57:44.880 --> 00:57:47.760
my hairs. I tripped my hairs so it was stuck

607
00:57:47.800 --> 00:57:55.719
a a crewker. I guess I can see in a

608
00:57:55.840 --> 00:58:01.360
mirror that the gap between the hairs is growing, and

609
00:58:01.480 --> 00:58:03.960
some of those hairs that are growing back are not

610
00:58:04.159 --> 00:58:08.039
the same strength for thickness that they used to be.

611
00:58:12.679 --> 00:58:22.039
And I'm thinking that possibly the next thing is I

612
00:58:22.199 --> 00:58:28.639
might Okay, well I'll be bored, and that's it really.

613
00:58:29.599 --> 00:58:33.920
I showed a picture to Jack Tpt to create an

614
00:58:33.920 --> 00:58:37.440
image for me, and I said, oh, make an image

615
00:58:37.639 --> 00:58:45.280
of Vinny and me Veoinix on the bed making a

616
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:50.199
podcast or something and I'm sleeping on a dog bed

617
00:58:50.800 --> 00:58:51.440
on the floor.

618
00:58:52.800 --> 00:59:01.639
So I did that and they said, oh, I said

619
00:59:01.639 --> 00:59:05.239
what Jack Russell read Jack Russell when they did that,

620
00:59:05.039 --> 00:59:07.719
and I posted a picture of him.

621
00:59:07.880 --> 00:59:10.880
So they changed it to like a lifelike picture of Vinnie.

622
00:59:13.239 --> 00:59:16.199
I think he was holding a board. We said, I

623
00:59:16.519 --> 00:59:22.320
a Q and a Friday or whatever it was. And

624
00:59:22.360 --> 00:59:27.079
then I said, can you make my image as well?

625
00:59:29.599 --> 00:59:32.239
So they said upload the picture of you. So I

626
00:59:32.280 --> 00:59:36.440
did it. Just showed someone with a massive ball patch

627
00:59:37.320 --> 00:59:42.400
and just hair growing on the side like that's not

628
00:59:42.440 --> 00:59:48.599
why I look like not yet. It possibly will be,

629
00:59:50.119 --> 00:59:54.119
but it won't because I will shake my hair. I will.

630
00:59:55.039 --> 00:59:59.199
That's that's so annoying, though, because I'm pretty sure that

631
00:59:59.519 --> 01:00:02.159
the side my hair and the back of my hair

632
01:00:03.119 --> 01:00:07.920
is so thick and curly, but so thick that it

633
01:00:07.960 --> 01:00:11.039
would never board. I don't think I'm ever going to

634
01:00:11.119 --> 01:00:15.480
be that. That will always be thick hair and other

635
01:00:15.599 --> 01:00:21.559
side as well, but not so much in the middle.

636
01:00:23.480 --> 01:00:25.800
It is a going back to Moses. It's a little

637
01:00:25.800 --> 01:00:29.360
bit like the Pine of the Red Sea. It started

638
01:00:29.400 --> 01:00:32.039
at the back and it's just slowly move in to

639
01:00:32.159 --> 01:00:39.039
the front. It's weird Moses and bridges. That seems to

640
01:00:39.039 --> 01:00:45.000
be the topic of the day. I did another video

641
01:00:45.159 --> 01:00:54.199
I never a podcast image and they said, I said,

642
01:00:54.199 --> 01:00:56.400
do you want to I want to put in an

643
01:00:56.400 --> 01:01:00.519
image of me. They said, describe yourself. So I said,

644
01:01:00.679 --> 01:01:05.519
a fifty four year old man. I looked about ninety

645
01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:08.360
when they put this picture of me, like this old,

646
01:01:09.840 --> 01:01:14.079
old looking person. I do not look like that, or

647
01:01:14.119 --> 01:01:17.719
maybe I do. I don't to me, but I do

648
01:01:17.880 --> 01:01:20.679
need to have my eyes checked to be fair. I'm

649
01:01:20.719 --> 01:01:23.719
saving up for an eye test and to get what

650
01:01:23.840 --> 01:01:29.000
the eye test is free, but the glasses are, so

651
01:01:29.280 --> 01:01:36.239
I think I get the lenses for free, but I

652
01:01:36.400 --> 01:01:40.519
have to pay for to have the gloss, you know,

653
01:01:40.599 --> 01:01:44.559
the protection on them, and also the actor light so

654
01:01:44.679 --> 01:01:47.039
they go dark in the sun, so I have to

655
01:01:47.039 --> 01:01:49.280
pay for that and I have to I think I

656
01:01:49.320 --> 01:01:53.440
get a discount on the frames, or I think I

657
01:01:53.440 --> 01:01:58.679
can get a free frame, but they're like NHS. There's

658
01:01:58.719 --> 01:02:02.400
nothing wrong with NHS, but I kind of think I

659
01:02:02.440 --> 01:02:06.119
don't care what the frame looks like if they're ever reading,

660
01:02:07.559 --> 01:02:13.280
because I'm not going to be reading outside pretty much.

661
01:02:13.320 --> 01:02:15.719
I'm going to read here and I'm looking forward to

662
01:02:15.760 --> 01:02:18.159
getting my classes so i can get back to reading again.

663
01:02:19.199 --> 01:02:21.039
I just can't do it at the moment, nor with these.

664
01:02:25.639 --> 01:02:28.280
So it's going to cost me a few hundred pounds

665
01:02:29.480 --> 01:02:33.559
two because I'm gonna have to get two different probably

666
01:02:33.599 --> 01:02:40.159
three different frames, one for distance, you know, normal day

667
01:02:40.199 --> 01:02:45.400
to day, one for reading, and one for using on

668
01:02:45.440 --> 01:02:49.880
a computer. I need to start like protecting my eyes

669
01:02:49.920 --> 01:03:01.400
a bit more, and I've noticed I can't. I can't

670
01:03:01.440 --> 01:03:04.360
spend as much time looking at the computer screen as

671
01:03:04.400 --> 01:03:10.639
I used to do, which is it's not a terrible

672
01:03:10.679 --> 01:03:15.760
thing really, because I don't really want to be spending

673
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:18.360
all day looking at a computer screen. But at the

674
01:03:18.400 --> 01:03:27.119
same time it is limiting and I'd at least like

675
01:03:27.199 --> 01:03:31.519
to have the option, but at the same time by

676
01:03:31.920 --> 01:03:39.519
looking after my eyes. So as soon as I've saved

677
01:03:39.599 --> 01:03:46.480
up enough, I'm gonna get an appointment go to the opticians.

678
01:03:48.880 --> 01:03:57.159
I'm thinking about asking for because I saw somewhere that

679
01:03:57.280 --> 01:04:02.639
there's certain lenses that I quite good for people bipolar. Now,

680
01:04:02.920 --> 01:04:09.760
I might have dreamt it, but it's not something I

681
01:04:09.760 --> 01:04:14.239
would normally dream about. But then I don't remember everything

682
01:04:14.239 --> 01:04:18.800
I dream about. In fact, I can't remember the last

683
01:04:18.800 --> 01:04:24.079
time I had a dream. I ever dream I've done,

684
01:04:24.159 --> 01:04:27.440
and I have dreamt, I just don't remember exactly what

685
01:04:29.199 --> 01:04:30.119
I dreamt about.

686
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:43.000
And yeah, wow, I think I had a dreamed the

687
01:04:43.079 --> 01:04:44.119
other day, and I just.

688
01:04:48.199 --> 01:04:59.079
I can't remember what it was. I don't know I

689
01:04:59.119 --> 01:05:07.920
was talking about dreaming. I was talking about dreaming. Oh,

690
01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:15.840
biparlor lenses. I know that there's some lenses to people

691
01:05:16.039 --> 01:05:23.360
with some conditions, not just visual conditions, where like different

692
01:05:23.440 --> 01:05:27.880
colored tinted glasses that color all the time, not just

693
01:05:28.119 --> 01:05:32.199
in the sun like min tint dark in the sun.

694
01:05:33.519 --> 01:05:36.000
Apparently people can see where I'm looking, know, which is

695
01:05:37.000 --> 01:05:39.119
became as a bit of a surprise. After ten years

696
01:05:39.199 --> 01:05:48.159
I thinking I was my eyeballs had freedom. So now

697
01:05:49.360 --> 01:05:51.280
before I go to the optictions, I'm gonna do a

698
01:05:51.320 --> 01:05:55.159
bit of research. If there's something that can help me

699
01:05:59.360 --> 01:06:03.239
in some way, If looking through a different colored lens

700
01:06:04.760 --> 01:06:10.880
could be useful, then it's worth exploring. There's on my

701
01:06:11.079 --> 01:06:18.639
to do list. Yeah, because I remember one of the beges.

702
01:06:19.559 --> 01:06:25.639
I think it was the maybe two of them, but

703
01:06:25.760 --> 01:06:29.760
one of them matter. I think like a yellow tilted

704
01:06:30.159 --> 01:06:33.840
or tilted glasses. And I used to know someone I

705
01:06:33.880 --> 01:06:38.119
think she was a customer, or i'd said when I

706
01:06:38.159 --> 01:06:45.280
worked in the evolution shop in im Switch. She I

707
01:06:45.320 --> 01:06:51.840
think she worked next door in Snappy Snaps, which was

708
01:06:51.880 --> 01:06:59.760
this camera processing place or picture processing and she had

709
01:07:00.159 --> 01:07:07.079
I think yellow lenses or blue lenses and said I

710
01:07:07.119 --> 01:07:11.400
asked her about it, and she said it's something to

711
01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:21.519
do with I'm pretty sure she said autism. Or I'm

712
01:07:21.519 --> 01:07:29.079
also I have a memory of hearing that lenses can

713
01:07:29.119 --> 01:07:34.480
help with ADHD, but again I'm not sure right, just

714
01:07:35.199 --> 01:07:45.800
these are like faint memories that maybe complete fabrications. But

715
01:07:46.039 --> 01:07:50.880
I think anything really is worth for dry, isn't it?

716
01:07:50.880 --> 01:07:57.440
It's now to lose. I might get some funny looks.

717
01:07:59.360 --> 01:08:05.960
Wise think is maybe going forward. I'll ask them if

718
01:08:06.000 --> 01:08:11.960
I can care lenses are always dark all the time,

719
01:08:15.480 --> 01:08:21.680
like Roy Robison. Did you know Roy Robison didn't wear

720
01:08:21.680 --> 01:08:24.000
those classes because he had anything wrong with his eyes.

721
01:08:26.520 --> 01:08:30.760
It's true he had an eye injury, or he had

722
01:08:30.760 --> 01:08:33.840
a style or something like that. So he wore those

723
01:08:33.880 --> 01:08:37.279
classes when he was on stage because his eye was

724
01:08:37.319 --> 01:08:41.640
all scammy. And this might be a lie, but this

725
01:08:41.760 --> 01:08:44.880
is my memory of it. And he wore his classes

726
01:08:44.880 --> 01:08:51.840
on stage to perform Miss Robison the singer, and he

727
01:08:52.039 --> 01:08:54.479
liked them so much he decided to spend the rest

728
01:08:54.479 --> 01:08:58.800
of his career wearing those classes, some big, thick classes

729
01:08:59.720 --> 01:09:10.560
dark which looked like he had serious sight issues, but

730
01:09:10.600 --> 01:09:17.560
apparently he didn't. I have seen people wear those type

731
01:09:17.560 --> 01:09:31.840
of glasses that were very had impaired sight. But I

732
01:09:31.880 --> 01:09:34.760
was thinking maybe I could get some. No, I don't

733
01:09:34.760 --> 01:09:39.760
want them like that. But just the thing is, I

734
01:09:39.800 --> 01:09:46.720
think some people look they think it's weird if you

735
01:09:46.760 --> 01:09:53.880
walk around in the winter wearing sunglasses. And I've had

736
01:09:53.880 --> 01:09:56.079
a couple of people say, while you were in sunshines.

737
01:09:56.119 --> 01:10:05.800
It's like, I'm not, these are my normal classes. But

738
01:10:05.960 --> 01:10:09.439
these don't look like sunshades because it's a different frame.

739
01:10:09.880 --> 01:10:14.960
These look like glasses, because sunshades are normally a bit more,

740
01:10:16.479 --> 01:10:19.840
are more stylish and more. There's a different kind of

741
01:10:19.840 --> 01:10:29.520
a frame I think with sunshades, although I kind of

742
01:10:29.600 --> 01:10:35.279
do like you remember, like the Blues Brothers, that kind

743
01:10:35.399 --> 01:10:44.760
of sunshades. Yeah, maybe I look, I'll look into that.

744
01:10:45.760 --> 01:10:49.479
Maybe that's what I do, just something to kind of

745
01:10:49.479 --> 01:10:55.279
protect my eyes from the sun from the light. I'll

746
01:10:55.319 --> 01:11:01.279
see what the optician says. But before or that, do

747
01:11:01.359 --> 01:11:04.399
a little bit of research online, maybe watch a few

748
01:11:04.520 --> 01:11:11.279
YouTube videos and find out what's about, and perhaps do

749
01:11:11.359 --> 01:11:15.640
a bit of research into the science behind it and

750
01:11:16.399 --> 01:11:24.680
see what studies have shown, because I'll figure it if

751
01:11:24.720 --> 01:11:29.359
anything that can help is brilliant. Although in the future,

752
01:11:34.920 --> 01:11:44.159
the smart classes will be the norm, and I'm interested

753
01:11:44.239 --> 01:11:46.880
in there. I do like the idea of wearing smart

754
01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:52.159
glasses and being able to talk to them. I like

755
01:11:52.239 --> 01:11:56.319
the idea of being able to make a podcast while

756
01:11:56.319 --> 01:12:01.720
I'm just walking around. Probably I probably have. I don't

757
01:12:01.760 --> 01:12:06.800
know how good the microphone would be on this is

758
01:12:06.840 --> 01:12:12.920
the glasses. But audio is improving all the time, and

759
01:12:12.960 --> 01:12:19.920
the ability to improve audio as well after recording is

760
01:12:20.119 --> 01:12:24.000
technologies is improving all the time, so it's there's so

761
01:12:24.119 --> 01:12:29.960
much more it can be done. So I'm just I'll

762
01:12:29.960 --> 01:12:32.159
see what happens, but I'm going to look into it.

763
01:12:36.920 --> 01:12:39.439
My question is what was I talking about when I

764
01:12:39.680 --> 01:12:44.880
very first started this recording, Because it wasn't bridges, it

765
01:12:44.960 --> 01:12:49.640
wasn't glasses. What was it. I don't know. I can't remember.

766
01:12:51.840 --> 01:12:57.640
I cannot remember old motorbikes in the garden. That's it.

767
01:13:00.840 --> 01:13:03.079
So I've got no idea how long I've been talking.

768
01:13:04.039 --> 01:13:06.279
It might be twenty minutes, it might be an hour.

769
01:13:06.359 --> 01:13:11.159
I don't know, but I'm going to go, So thank

770
01:13:11.239 --> 01:13:16.159
you for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself because

771
01:13:16.199 --> 01:13:20.119
you do deserve to be happy and be gentle with yourself.

772
01:13:21.760 --> 01:13:29.039
You deserve to feel safe. Lots of love. Bye,
