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

00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:02.880
it's Friday, the eighth of August two thousand and twenty five.

8
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:06.439
Please only listen when you can safety close your eyes,

9
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:15.959
if I have not already said that. Earlier on, I

10
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:25.000
did do a recording five bromyalgia Relief Hypnosis. So that's

11
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:30.280
something I've done today this week. What have I done

12
00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:30.799
this week?

13
00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:36.879
M M.

14
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:45.519
So I've done a Monday's Boring Objects. I did a

15
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:53.439
whistle Monday, so one, two, three, four, five, six seven.

16
00:01:54.359 --> 00:01:56.959
So this will be my eighth record in this week.

17
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:04.680
And I still got two more days left, two more

18
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:13.240
days of the week, that is. And I ordered a

19
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:24.960
window cover to try and soundproof the window, and that

20
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:31.680
should be getting delivered at some point today. Whilch would

21
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:36.199
be interesting to see how that works out. It's all

22
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:41.400
worth a try. Isn't it. It's worth a try, yes,

23
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:52.000
you know. So the last few days I've been trying

24
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:57.280
to work, we're trying to trying to tidy up this place.

25
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.479
I had a bit of a I don't know if

26
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:15.080
it's an extrastential stench extra stench eel moment lately, but

27
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:20.080
having been over the last few weeks, I've been going

28
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:24.719
through uncle's sausages stuff, partly because he asked me to.

29
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.879
You know, I wasn't just having a little nose and

30
00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:31.479
he wanted me to find some things. And then when

31
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:33.960
I told him about the magazines and there's a little

32
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:37.039
bit of a mouse issue, he said, well, firstly, he

33
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:39.479
didn't want to go back to the flat, and I

34
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:41.879
said what about your magazines? And he said, well clear

35
00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:45.400
it out. So he asked me to clear the clear

36
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.360
his flat out, get rid of the rubbish. So I

37
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:52.159
did that and I did five bags to start with.

38
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:57.479
And that was just stuff on the just stuff on

39
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:01.199
the floor, biscuit wrappers and you stuff like that, which

40
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.159
I'm not going to judge him because I'm similar myself.

41
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:08.560
Sometimes I blame it on Vinnie, but it's not really

42
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:19.199
all him. I mean, the bones that's Vinnie and then

43
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:21.800
I started going through his books and the you know,

44
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:25.600
the books had to be chucked out, and his magazines,

45
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:32.319
and I found photographs, and I started putting stuff away,

46
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:37.360
just like that he might want to be kept, or

47
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:41.560
maybe someone might want. You know, it's like the passport

48
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.959
of his mum, his mum's old passport, and his mum's

49
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:50.519
been she's been gone for a long time, yeah, decades,

50
00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:58.759
So it was kind of, I don't know, a bit weird.

51
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:04.920
There's baby pictures of him. Well, I'm guessing they're him.

52
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:08.240
I mean they're black and white pictures of a baby boy.

53
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:10.800
I don't know if it's a boy, but a baby.

54
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:13.920
Some kind of figuring it might be him. I mean,

55
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:17.319
he didn't. It's hard to tell, to be honest with you,

56
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:22.720
I just imagine it was. He had these. They're kind

57
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:26.560
of hidden away in this container that you wouldn't even

58
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:29.879
know anything was in it. And it was just a

59
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:33.720
bunch of photographs and you know, that's personal stuff. But

60
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:38.360
no one wants it. No one wants it, no one

61
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:46.079
just there's without seeming harsh. I don't want it either.

62
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:50.920
It's of no, I don't. I don't really collect stuff

63
00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:54.800
from my own life. Or my own family, never mind

64
00:05:55.079 --> 00:06:05.560
someone else's. But I thought there'd be someone that would

65
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:10.079
because of you know, a part of me would like

66
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:16.879
to think that maybe when my time's up, that somebody

67
00:06:16.959 --> 00:06:26.319
would want a keepsake of me. But I've come to

68
00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:28.920
realize that that's possibly not going to be the case.

69
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:33.920
And I looked at all his books, all the things

70
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:38.720
that he's collected over well, there's a lifetime, I guess,

71
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:51.160
all being chucked out, everything nothing, nothing being kept. It's

72
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:56.199
like all his belongings gone, every bit of clothing. Unfortunately

73
00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:59.879
it can't be recycled as it were, can't be given

74
00:06:59.920 --> 00:07:08.160
to the second end shop. But everything that meant something

75
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:14.800
to him material wise, it's gone. He's going to be

76
00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:18.519
chucked out. But you're taken by the council now. A

77
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:20.680
lot of it is because it's of the mice and

78
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.560
it's unhealthy, you know what I mean. This stuff has

79
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:27.160
to be backed up. I went in there with gloves

80
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:31.480
on and just trying to kind of sort it out

81
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.000
because the council asked me to do it. And then

82
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:36.199
the council has said they didn't need me to do it,

83
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.160
they were going to come and do it themselves. And

84
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:39.800
they were going to come and get the mice people

85
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:46.920
into sought out the vermin, and they came today because

86
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:49.000
I've had a key to his flat, so they came in.

87
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:51.879
They let them in, and they went and did what

88
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:53.839
they needed to do, and and they're coming back in

89
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:56.920
a week's time to sort of check out a situation.

90
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:02.759
He was taking photographs and he was looking and he said, well,

91
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.240
it's pretty bad, but he did say he seems worse.

92
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:15.040
It's basically hoarders. It's a horder situation because people and

93
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:19.600
I'm he was a hoarder. But at the same time,

94
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:27.040
a hoarder is just someone that's clicks things. You know,

95
00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:30.240
if you get into the big hoarder blah blah blah.

96
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:36.399
You know those those TV programs always show the very

97
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:43.399
very most extreme cases. Now, you know, where someone literally

98
00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:49.559
they've got everything stacked up nearly to the ceiling, and

99
00:08:49.679 --> 00:08:55.559
it's interesting to watch because it's almost unbelievable that anyone

100
00:08:55.600 --> 00:09:04.519
could live like that. I saw his flat one that

101
00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:08.720
was halfway through being emptied back before Christmas because he

102
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:13.919
was a hoarder, and it was quite high, but it

103
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:18.440
wasn't as high as a ceiling, but it was you know,

104
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:24.279
up to his knees maybe yeah, yeah, up to his

105
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:29.159
knees pretty much higher in some places you couldn't. I

106
00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:32.240
didn't even know he had a sofa until they had finished.

107
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:35.080
I don't think he even knew he had a bed.

108
00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:38.240
I said, why do you sleep in your chair? He said,

109
00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:40.679
I don't know. I was meaning to get myself a bed,

110
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:46.240
and then I made that bit up. Although he did

111
00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:50.759
sleep in the inner setting and on the sofa, there

112
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:56.840
is a chair. Actually he didn't sleep in bed. But

113
00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:59.399
it's just someone that gets out of hand, that's all

114
00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:09.080
it is with I think with the collecting, and I

115
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:11.960
can't see he didn't like having someone coming in and

116
00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:14.960
taking his stuff, but he didn't have any choice. The

117
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:18.120
counsel came in and basically told him they had to

118
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.799
sort it out because of being a health hazard, of

119
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:24.000
fire hazard and all that stuff. And this is you

120
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:30.720
know about November time. But it was very distressing for

121
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:35.039
him because he didn't have enough time to sort through

122
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:38.200
his own stuff to choose what he wanted to keep.

123
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.360
So what he did is he made sure that they

124
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:44.720
didn't go into any of his drawers or any of

125
00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:51.039
his cupboards, which are also full of stuff. I found

126
00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:59.519
newspapers from nineteen ninety nine. I helped him move all

127
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:04.440
the stuff the kitchen just before he's this is I

128
00:11:04.519 --> 00:11:07.399
think it's the start of the year. He had a

129
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:09.679
new kitchen put in. It might have been the end

130
00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:12.600
of last year. I lose track of time, but he

131
00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:14.960
had a new kitchen put in. So the week and

132
00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:19.080
before they came to do the kitchen, I helped him

133
00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:22.919
to move everything out of the kitchen into his bedroom.

134
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:27.480
And we were going through the drawers and I couldn't

135
00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:32.360
believe stuff we were finding. Therese carrier bags that had

136
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:39.440
been in there so long they're disintegrated, and it was

137
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:42.759
kind of there was one that was so bad as

138
00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.840
like I said to m Uncle sausages, You're going to

139
00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:47.840
have to deal with this. This I'm not I'm not

140
00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:54.879
touching that draw You can deal without yourself. But you know,

141
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:56.399
to try and help him out a little bit if

142
00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:02.600
I could. But the people from the council when they

143
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:06.039
did what was the subcontracted when they did it, they

144
00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:09.840
didn't no surfaces were cleared from the looks of it,

145
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.399
you know, nothing was no cupboards were looked in all

146
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:22.799
the stuff where I don't know. Basically, I think he

147
00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:27.279
needed to have been put into a hotel or go

148
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:31.120
and stay somewhere for a week while the whole place

149
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:36.000
was just emptied and bearing in mind his age, and

150
00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:39.679
he wasn't really so much able to look after himself.

151
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:44.600
It was independent, but there were certain aspects that he

152
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:51.600
wasn't doing great with maybe doing really well compared to

153
00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:55.080
a lot of people his age, but he wasn't. He wasn't.

154
00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.039
He needed help, but he didn't ask for any help

155
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:04.440
other than from me, And most of that was just

156
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:08.279
helping with bills and talking to people on the phone

157
00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:11.840
and getting his front door sorted out and help him

158
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:14.399
get his kitchen cleared and help him with bits and

159
00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:19.120
bobs like that and ordering stuff online, you know, things

160
00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:28.919
that he sort of didn't enjoy doing, but he it's

161
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:33.320
just really weird. I went in there again today and

162
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:42.200
showed the the mice men around and I said, I

163
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:45.000
know it's really it's a bit grotty in these two rooms,

164
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:49.600
but the kitchen in the bathroom are fine. The kitchens.

165
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:55.000
I said, I think there's like rat droppings in the

166
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:57.360
kitchen and he said, no, it's not rat droppings. They're

167
00:13:57.399 --> 00:14:01.360
like these beetle shelfings like rat droppings, but they're not

168
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:11.559
and the bathroom perfect. Uncle Sausages hadn't hadn't even seen

169
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:14.679
the finished article of his bathroom because it was in

170
00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:19.240
the process of being rebuilt, refurbished or whatever while he was.

171
00:14:19.960 --> 00:14:22.480
He was still there when they started it, so they

172
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.679
were there for the first week. He was there for

173
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:27.720
the first week of them doing it from Tuesday to Friday,

174
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:32.919
and on Friday night he went in Tosspital. So they

175
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:36.919
hadn't I don't think they put the bath in yet.

176
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:40.480
They hadn't put in and put the toilet in, but

177
00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:48.200
they hadn't put in I can't remember. I'm pretty sure

178
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.759
they asked me even what kind of tiles did he want?

179
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:56.440
And I just said they were asking me, like, I

180
00:14:56.519 --> 00:15:01.000
don't know, but the because i' let them in every day,

181
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:03.960
So you know, there was like the plumber, then there

182
00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:07.159
was the electrician, then there was the plaster, then there

183
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:11.200
was the painter and all the different kind of trades

184
00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:18.720
people that came in. And he never got to see it.

185
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:25.080
He never got to see the end result. And he's down,

186
00:15:25.240 --> 00:15:29.799
he's waiting, well, he was waiting later in the year,

187
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.799
I don't know when, but this year sometime in the

188
00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:36.559
next few months he's going to have all new windows

189
00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:43.799
in there as well, so practically a whole new flat

190
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:49.399
other than the living room and the bedroom, although that

191
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:54.120
will now be all cleared out. And I mean they

192
00:15:54.200 --> 00:16:00.960
don't the council don't refurbish the flat when you don't

193
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:05.799
like the living room in the bedroom. They they'll strip

194
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.799
the place, get everything out of there in this kind

195
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.600
of situation. They did the same with my friend Luke

196
00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:16.240
downstairs and Trina who also lived downstairs that did the

197
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:18.960
same there as well, who she passed away as well.

198
00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:22.960
So this is a third third person who I've lived

199
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.879
in this block with that's passed away in the last

200
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:36.679
five years. It's crazy, really. Yeah, Trina was the first. First, Yeah,

201
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:42.279
it was beginning of twenty twenty and Luke ended twenty

202
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:55.799
twenty three November, and now Uncle Sausages. It's kind of weird.

203
00:16:55.960 --> 00:16:58.559
It's just just weird. But anyway, I don't want to

204
00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:06.039
keep talking about that. But lthough, I am I'm starting

205
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:08.480
to wonder though this is. I know this isn't really

206
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:11.000
anything to do with Q and A Friday, but you know,

207
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:17.240
this to let me boy to sleep is it's kind

208
00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:21.920
of like a I don't know, like a journal or

209
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:27.720
a diary, a verbal you know, vlog, blog, whatever you

210
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:33.160
want to call it. And so I do talk about

211
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:35.240
my life. I talk about what's gone on and how

212
00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:39.599
I'm feeling. I try to keep it light, and you know,

213
00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:44.200
I don't talk about things like this when it's not happening.

214
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:49.559
You know, it's like like I'm constantly talking about bereavement

215
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:52.640
and things like that because I'm not. I don't. If

216
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:55.359
you listen regularly, you know that I do try and

217
00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:58.519
keep it quite light. And I'm trying to keep this

218
00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:02.160
light as well. It's just a little bit hard because

219
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:08.839
there's also the reality, or at least my reality, of

220
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:18.839
the situation, and it just seems like he's if I

221
00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:25.079
don't talk about him, he's forgotten. Now it's not going

222
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:27.960
to be forgotten or remembered by anyone listening, because no

223
00:18:28.039 --> 00:18:30.599
one listening knows him, you know, in a sense of

224
00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:34.480
I don't know, just like Luke or anyone else sort

225
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:36.319
of in my life. You don't know these people, but

226
00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:42.480
it kind of keeps I feel like it keeps them alive,

227
00:18:43.200 --> 00:18:46.960
keeps as long as the memory is alive, it keeps

228
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:53.000
them alive, Like you know, really famous people that live on,

229
00:18:55.079 --> 00:19:12.000
like Charles Dickens or Elvis Presley or you know famous musicians, composers, authors, actors,

230
00:19:13.680 --> 00:19:17.920
people like that that are kind of just gonna I mean,

231
00:19:17.920 --> 00:19:22.079
it doesn't seem like Elvis Presley is ever gonna be forgotten.

232
00:19:24.359 --> 00:19:27.519
I know there's millions and millions, maybe billions of people

233
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:29.400
on the planet that have got no idea who he

234
00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:37.400
is or who he was. But every generation is going

235
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:42.559
to find a new group of people that will fall

236
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:47.160
in love with Elvis Prosley and his songs, and that

237
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:50.279
might be I mean, for me, the reason I love

238
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:55.480
Elvis is because my oldest brother, who was obsessed with Elvis.

239
00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.440
So I spent years of my childhood listening to Elvis

240
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.480
songs because my brother would play them and he was

241
00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:06.759
in charge. He was the oldest brother. If he decided

242
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:08.839
we were listening to Elvis songs, that's what we were

243
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:17.039
listening to. So I loved Elvis, and my dad loved

244
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:22.319
the Beatles, so I kind of he didn't talk about

245
00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:26.359
the Beatles, but he played the Beatles songs a lot,

246
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:29.039
like you know, when we was in the car and stuff.

247
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:33.440
So I grew up even though I was the Beatles

248
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:38.000
was well and truly over long before I was like,

249
00:20:38.920 --> 00:20:41.839
could know who they were when they split out before

250
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:47.240
I was born, And I do remember hearing about John

251
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:51.160
Lennon and I was in and that was big news.

252
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:58.240
Bearing in mind I was was it in nineteen eighty two,

253
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:02.960
eighty two something like that? I was like, I'm sure

254
00:21:02.960 --> 00:21:05.079
I was at high school and I was in the

255
00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:09.240
getting changed in the changing room at sports we were

256
00:21:09.319 --> 00:21:12.119
doing you know, sports whatever football or whatever it was,

257
00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:17.799
and some came in and shouted about John Lennon. Like,

258
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:25.279
so I knew who he was. Absolutely loved John Lennon's

259
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:31.799
solo songs that were kind of I suppose they were

260
00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:35.680
late seventies, but they became really popular in the early eighties,

261
00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:39.079
or they might have been in the early eighties. I

262
00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:44.880
don't know. I'm pretty sure imagine was it was in

263
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:51.119
the seventies. I first came out and woman, those are

264
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:56.359
my two favorite songs that John Lennen did you know,

265
00:21:56.559 --> 00:22:02.240
solo wise? Although I didn't really all I'm excited about this,

266
00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:10.119
I didn't realize that, oh what did he He did

267
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:13.440
a song and then Brian Ferry did it, and Brian

268
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:18.240
Ferry did a much arguably a much better version of it.

269
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:25.319
I'm just a well a guy, whatever it is, is it?

270
00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:29.880
Brian Fairy was so good, that Brian Ferry version, and

271
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:31.799
then I heard the John Lennon version and that was

272
00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:36.480
also really good. But Brian Ferry just I think I

273
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:43.359
got the right singer. I'm just a classic guy something

274
00:22:43.440 --> 00:22:50.640
like that. I'm just something guy. Such a good song.

275
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:56.319
And see, there's also something that I've noticed recently that

276
00:22:56.440 --> 00:22:58.640
I'm also you might have noticed about me. I'm a

277
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:05.079
huge Bob Dylan and I have heard hardly anything from

278
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:08.440
Bob Dylan that I didn't like, even though I don't

279
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:12.680
understand half of what he's singing about, because he's singing

280
00:23:12.720 --> 00:23:16.519
about stuff from like the fifties and sixties and you know,

281
00:23:16.759 --> 00:23:21.279
different towns in America and beat Nick stuff. Well I

282
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:24.640
know a little bit about beat Nick stuff, but you know,

283
00:23:25.799 --> 00:23:30.079
I don't really because it was before my time and

284
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:33.400
even in the seventies. Like one of my favorite albums

285
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:36.119
of all time is Blood on the Tracks, which is

286
00:23:36.160 --> 00:23:38.960
a Bob Dylan song from about nineteen seventy two or

287
00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:45.039
nineteen seventy four something like that, and I just love

288
00:23:46.519 --> 00:23:46.960
I love it.

289
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:51.720
He mister Tambourne Man Blue Song for me.

290
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:58.160
See, I didn't used to like that song when anyone

291
00:23:58.200 --> 00:24:02.799
else sung it, because he wasn't like it was a

292
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:06.599
really popular song sung by so many different bands. I

293
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:10.319
didn't know Bob Dylan sung it. And then when I

294
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:12.599
heard Bob Dylan sing it, I thought, oh, I like

295
00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:18.240
this and some of the lyrics I remember when I'm

296
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:21.000
very because I've known about Bob Dylan since I was

297
00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:23.240
a kid, because he's always been around my whole life.

298
00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:26.839
I've not lived with him. I don't mean that way.

299
00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:33.680
It's not my neighbor doesn't live in the loft, but

300
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:37.880
he every you know, he was always around. He was

301
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:41.240
always I'd see him on Telly and I'd see him.

302
00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:47.279
It's just one of those things. Like Kirk Douglas. I'd

303
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:50.079
see him in the movies, so I grew up even

304
00:24:50.119 --> 00:24:52.519
though the movies he was in were from the fifties

305
00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:56.559
in the sixties, and I was watching him in the eighties,

306
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:01.720
so I grew up knowing him. And it's really weird

307
00:25:01.839 --> 00:25:11.799
when his son became a massive star and what's this

308
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:20.160
Kirk Douglas's son, what was his name? Douglas? So good?

309
00:25:21.400 --> 00:25:25.799
What a great comedy actor. What a great actor generally

310
00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:36.839
Daniel not Daniel Douglas. Why have I forgotten his first name?

311
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:44.240
I know who he married. But he's so he's just

312
00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:49.119
got he's got that. He's got. Another really good actor

313
00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:55.680
is John Pertree's son. I think it's Sean Pertwee. He's

314
00:25:55.759 --> 00:25:57.720
so good, but he's never gone on to be like

315
00:25:58.000 --> 00:26:03.480
super famous, and I don't understand it, because he's really

316
00:26:04.119 --> 00:26:08.640
really good. His great at action, is great at comedy.

317
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:14.240
He's got the timing, got he's got it. And his

318
00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:18.599
dad was super famous being in Doctor Who and Wordswillgummage

319
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:20.759
and a lot of other things. So his dad was

320
00:26:20.920 --> 00:26:24.960
really famous in this country. And Sean Pertwee, I think

321
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:29.920
it's Sean. Didn't he do Robin Hood or something back

322
00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:34.759
in the eighties. I think he might have done, but

323
00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:39.839
he was so he's so good, and I just anyway, Well,

324
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:41.400
this hasn't really got anything to do with Q and

325
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:50.559
A Friday, but very little has these days. I suppose

326
00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:53.000
I was just wondering, what's going to happen to my stuff?

327
00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:57.160
Someone's going to come in here and just chuck my

328
00:26:57.240 --> 00:27:06.160
stuff away, And it's got me thinking, why have I

329
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:11.920
even got any stuff. So I started having a bit

330
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:13.799
of clear out and getting rid of things that I

331
00:27:13.920 --> 00:27:16.480
don't need, things that I'm not going to look at again.

332
00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:19.720
Why am I? There's no point in having stuff if

333
00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:24.960
I'm not going to use it. So yeah, it's been

334
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:32.599
able to tidy up just the idea of someone going

335
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:36.839
through my things. And I saw that with Luke. Luke's

336
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:40.519
my friend Luke stuff that he had people come in.

337
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:45.759
He had some family come and take some keepsakes, t shirts,

338
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:52.759
a few things just for a memory, you know, of him,

339
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:56.759
something that I don't know whatever they wanted it. It

340
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:00.240
was just a few little bits, and then he had

341
00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:02.759
someone else come in and just try and sell as

342
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:08.960
much stuff as they could as well. So that lasted

343
00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:12.240
for a week a month or five weeks a month,

344
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:16.559
something like that, and then the rest of it was

345
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:21.559
just left for the council to come and collect, and

346
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:27.119
they did collect it, but while they were collecting it,

347
00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:34.720
they were just mocking what he had. And I saw

348
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:39.799
some bloke he was standing on top of this. The

349
00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:45.000
council left these cages where they also use them using

350
00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:49.920
for rubbish, but they also use them for like cutting

351
00:28:50.079 --> 00:28:52.920
trees or cut you know, trimming hedges and stuff. So

352
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:55.200
it's kind of they put it in and it's all

353
00:28:55.319 --> 00:29:00.640
kind of caged up on this van thing probably a

354
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:05.440
tic and the call term for the v hickel, but

355
00:29:05.519 --> 00:29:11.160
I don't know what it is. And this bloke was

356
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:16.000
shouting to his friend or his colleague that was in

357
00:29:16.119 --> 00:29:19.880
the flat as well, so very loud, shouting out, oh,

358
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:24.119
this is such a bunch of junk, whilst using a

359
00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:28.400
hammer or some sledgehammer thing to smash up the stuff

360
00:29:28.440 --> 00:29:32.000
in the back of this cage, smashing up his belongings.

361
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:39.000
And yeah, I had to I had to walk away

362
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:41.440
from that situation because I found it a little bit

363
00:29:43.759 --> 00:29:51.119
a lot disrespectful. You know. It's just I realized they

364
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:53.839
don't know the person, and they probably didn't even know

365
00:29:54.039 --> 00:29:56.599
that he They might have. For all they know, he

366
00:29:56.759 --> 00:30:00.039
just moved out and left all this stuff there. And

367
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:04.079
that happens a lot with the council apparently, so they

368
00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:15.319
weren't to know this situation. And yeah, perhaps they're not

369
00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:22.039
employed based upon their emotional intelligence, but a little bit

370
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:29.400
of a little bit of consideration. I don't know, right,

371
00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:35.079
it might have some background noise. Now I've got myself

372
00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:41.000
a noise detector only cheap thing, but there's no batteries,

373
00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:44.000
so I have to buy some batteries. But basically it

374
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:48.200
checks the decimal of the level of noise coming in

375
00:30:48.359 --> 00:30:50.559
through the window. So I'm going to be able to

376
00:30:50.680 --> 00:30:53.720
test that with the different things I use to try

377
00:30:53.799 --> 00:30:58.359
and soundproof the window, but also be interested to see

378
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:05.079
how loud decimal they're shouting is and whether or not

379
00:31:05.240 --> 00:31:08.519
it's breaking the law just out of interest. I'm not

380
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:12.079
never going to report them anyway, because I I don't

381
00:31:12.119 --> 00:31:16.519
do stuff like that, but just be interesting or whether

382
00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:23.079
it's just me being oversensitive, which it could be. I mean,

383
00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:25.519
it only really bothers me when I'm trying to make

384
00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:30.279
a recording. The rest of the time, most of the time,

385
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:34.759
some of the time doesn't worry me at all. It's

386
00:31:35.160 --> 00:31:39.119
just when I'm trying to make a recording, especially if

387
00:31:39.200 --> 00:31:42.960
it's a hypnosis recording, I need it to be quiet

388
00:31:44.920 --> 00:31:48.200
for me as well, because I'm focused very much on

389
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:52.599
what I'm saying. I'm focused on how I'm saying it,

390
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:57.000
and focused on the pauses because a lot more pauses,

391
00:31:58.480 --> 00:32:03.119
like quiet space is in the recording. We know what pauses.

392
00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:09.440
You want explain what pauses okay, right, wow, And it's

393
00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:12.640
hard to have a pause or you know, a gap

394
00:32:12.720 --> 00:32:24.319
in the talking. Okay, you know what pauses? Yeah, if

395
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:26.440
you especially like I was doing this one for five

396
00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:30.319
Rod my Aurgia, and it's you know, there's like a

397
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:36.319
gap as they now, let your unconscious mind just absorb

398
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:44.559
these messages and allow everything to just come together slowly

399
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:49.680
in your own time. And then there's a pause. But

400
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:52.319
if after that all you hear is do you want

401
00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:53.000
a coffee?

402
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:55.160
Yeah, I've got a coffee.

403
00:32:56.039 --> 00:33:00.559
You're right in what then? What do you get any shape? Gosh? Night?

404
00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:06.960
Was it? Because the people upstairs are really loud, really loud.

405
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:13.960
It's like, okay, this is six point thirty in the morning.

406
00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:21.960
People come on, I'm really loud. Didn't consider it so yeah.

407
00:33:23.920 --> 00:33:26.440
Other than that, they're actually really nice people. It's just

408
00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:31.039
I don't like anything getting in a way of this.

409
00:33:33.400 --> 00:33:35.160
It's one of my little peeves. You know, this is

410
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:39.880
important to me doing these things, and I'm trying to

411
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:45.480
whether you've noticed or not, I'm trying to sort of

412
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:51.079
do a bit more of the old hypnosi stuff. I'm

413
00:33:51.119 --> 00:33:59.599
not sure how well. I don't know. I don't know,

414
00:34:01.079 --> 00:34:03.960
I don't know is it going well, I don't know.

415
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:13.599
I don't know. I'm not sure, right, Okay, that's interesting,

416
00:34:13.760 --> 00:34:17.440
what's going on here? So I'm trying to look at

417
00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:25.400
my podcast through Okay, this is YouTube. I'm trying to

418
00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:32.360
look at my stats downloads eight new videos. That's that's

419
00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:37.159
that's it's not it's not given me that. Okay, never

420
00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:46.119
mind my videos. Well, the stats that seem to be

421
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:50.719
going up a bit with the old YouTube videos, which

422
00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:54.119
are just it's basically just a podcast. It's this podcast

423
00:34:57.079 --> 00:35:02.719
and I saw it. So every single time I record something,

424
00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:07.079
it gets uploaded onto YouTube in a format of just

425
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:11.880
the podcast episode, so whether it's normal length all the

426
00:35:11.920 --> 00:35:16.079
way up to ten hours with and without music, and

427
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:23.119
they're all uploaded, all six versions. And I've started to

428
00:35:23.880 --> 00:35:28.719
increase subscribers the last few days, and more people are

429
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:35.400
listening to the recordings. It's not huge, but it's increasing.

430
00:35:36.119 --> 00:35:40.199
Which is it's always nice, it's always always groovy to

431
00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:45.039
have that happen. Well, I'm wondering, not is where's the

432
00:35:46.400 --> 00:35:51.440
oh there is? So I suppose really what I was

433
00:35:51.559 --> 00:35:57.719
trying to sort of come to figure out is how

434
00:35:57.800 --> 00:36:02.800
can I be remembered? How can I be remembered or

435
00:36:02.840 --> 00:36:04.639
will I be remembered or I'm just I'm just going

436
00:36:04.719 --> 00:36:10.599
to be forgotten. And it seems weird bearing in mind

437
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:16.199
I've done thousands of recordings. I mean literally individual recordings.

438
00:36:18.199 --> 00:36:23.119
I've done thousands. It doesn't even make sense really when

439
00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:28.679
you think about it. I mean, let me boy to sleep.

440
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:34.880
I've done one thousand, four hundred and seven different recordings

441
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:39.119
and a lot of then there's six versions, and I've

442
00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:45.440
also done hundreds and hundreds and hundreds probably maybe a

443
00:36:45.639 --> 00:36:53.400
thousand other different recordings as well, So that's quite a lot,

444
00:36:54.960 --> 00:36:58.719
quite a bit in it, don't you think, quite a bit.

445
00:37:03.239 --> 00:37:05.880
And what's going to happen to all those recordings? Because

446
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:11.519
when I'm departed, Oh come on, what are you doing? Okay,

447
00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:18.639
itchy leg? When I'm departed, what happens to all these recordings?

448
00:37:18.679 --> 00:37:23.440
It will just be they'll just disappear because they're not physical.

449
00:37:23.519 --> 00:37:25.840
They're not a physical thing. They're not I mean, if

450
00:37:25.840 --> 00:37:28.559
they're a physical thing, the political gets stuck, get chucked

451
00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:32.360
out by the council and smashed up whilst someone's showing

452
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:38.639
what a bunch of junk? Hey what did this bloke do? What?

453
00:37:38.719 --> 00:37:42.719
There's all these recordings. I mean, technically they are. They

454
00:37:42.800 --> 00:37:49.280
are saved on hard drives, but it's saved on the podcasts.

455
00:37:50.440 --> 00:37:54.400
But what's going to happen to all the recordings? Will

456
00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:59.119
they be of any use to anyone in the future.

457
00:38:01.280 --> 00:38:04.679
I don't have an answer for this, and it's it's

458
00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:07.719
been a little bit on my mind, just a little bit.

459
00:38:09.639 --> 00:38:14.679
And I know that I'm not you know, I'm not.

460
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:21.280
I've not invented something that's changed the world, so I'm

461
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:26.880
not going to be remembered like that. I'm not famous,

462
00:38:27.119 --> 00:38:32.400
so I don't be remembered by millions of people because

463
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:37.000
I've not got that kind of audience, not yet. Anyway,

464
00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:48.840
give it time, baby, give it time. There's there's probably

465
00:38:48.880 --> 00:38:52.760
a few there's a few thousand people, maybe I reckon

466
00:38:52.840 --> 00:38:55.719
probably ten twenty thousand people around the world that know

467
00:38:55.840 --> 00:38:59.119
who I am. Would that have listened to me? Maybe more,

468
00:38:59.320 --> 00:39:03.840
maybe fifty thousand over the nineteen years I've been doing this,

469
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:09.440
perhaps even more than that, just that at least that

470
00:39:09.480 --> 00:39:11.559
I've listened to me. But then I guess I'll be

471
00:39:12.199 --> 00:39:17.559
forgotten by a lot of those people. So I'm known

472
00:39:17.599 --> 00:39:22.639
a little bit around the world, mind you. Twenty thousand

473
00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:26.440
is not bad. That could fill out a stadium or

474
00:39:26.440 --> 00:39:32.360
an arena in this country. You know, I could get

475
00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:36.519
every single person from around the world that's listening to

476
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:41.320
that's listened to my recordings in the last year, over

477
00:39:41.360 --> 00:39:44.960
the last twelve months, I could probably it's probably going

478
00:39:45.039 --> 00:39:48.480
to be about twenty thousand people, maybe maybe a lot

479
00:39:48.559 --> 00:39:53.599
more than that. I tried to work it out once,

480
00:39:53.719 --> 00:39:58.400
but it's hard. It's really hard to figure out. You know,

481
00:39:59.159 --> 00:40:01.960
there's regular p people. There's people that sor on my

482
00:40:02.079 --> 00:40:06.800
Facebook group. There's only two hundred and twenty members on

483
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:12.719
my Jason Newland's Boring group, but generally the people in

484
00:40:12.840 --> 00:40:19.800
that group in that group are regular listeners. But I

485
00:40:19.920 --> 00:40:25.199
do have for every person that would join a group

486
00:40:25.280 --> 00:40:30.679
to listen, there's going to be probably another ten, twenty,

487
00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:35.679
forty to fifty that I'll never hear about. Just like

488
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:41.440
for every person that's meant that posts a comment, there'll

489
00:40:41.480 --> 00:40:45.239
be hundreds that don't that won't post a comment, on

490
00:40:45.320 --> 00:40:49.039
thousands that won't post a comment because what I do

491
00:40:49.239 --> 00:40:54.800
is not really necessarily comment post the ball the ball

492
00:40:55.119 --> 00:41:00.599
is it? It's like, it's not really I guess I

493
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:04.840
suppose on YouTube, so I might post a message, a

494
00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:08.280
comments saying thank you for this and stuff. But on

495
00:41:08.480 --> 00:41:11.880
podcasts you don't get that, don't really get hardly any

496
00:41:12.079 --> 00:41:18.039
feedback at all at all. In fact, if I go

497
00:41:18.159 --> 00:41:29.440
to my website, just on Jason Newland dot com, let

498
00:41:29.519 --> 00:41:35.559
me have a look playlists. Oh wait a minute, that's weird.

499
00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:48.440
There's no home contact, facebook group, YouTube, podcast apps, playlists, podcasts,

500
00:41:49.079 --> 00:41:52.400
PayPal reviews. That's what I was looking for, and then

501
00:41:52.480 --> 00:41:59.119
requested recordings reviews. The last actual review that I've got

502
00:41:59.159 --> 00:42:08.559
on here was from probably a year ago maybe, in fact,

503
00:42:08.639 --> 00:42:11.880
I can't even know. I don't know when it was.

504
00:42:12.239 --> 00:42:17.119
It's a while back. So yeah, I don't get regular,

505
00:42:20.079 --> 00:42:26.199
regular reviews, which is okay, it's not I prefer more.

506
00:42:26.280 --> 00:42:34.840
I prefer not regular people because it's good advertising. You know.

507
00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:40.280
It's almost like I'm I'm like, people's like little dirty secret,

508
00:42:40.480 --> 00:42:42.800
like let's not let anyone. I don't want anyone to

509
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:44.920
know that I listened to that weird man in England.

510
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:50.360
I don't want anyone to know. No. And you know

511
00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:55.280
the thing is if you, if you actually have some

512
00:42:55.679 --> 00:43:03.039
kind of benefit from listening to my recordings, then chances

513
00:43:03.159 --> 00:43:07.960
that are other people will also gain some kind of benefit,

514
00:43:09.639 --> 00:43:15.159
whether it's fallen asleep, whether it's just calming your mind

515
00:43:15.239 --> 00:43:21.719
down and relaxing a bit, or just hearing a familiar

516
00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:26.119
friendly voice. I like to think I've got a fairly

517
00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:34.559
friendly voice. Is my voice friendly or better be? Or

518
00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:38.440
I am a friendly voice? So yeah, I like to

519
00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:43.119
it could be just that, it could be company. Because

520
00:43:43.159 --> 00:44:01.159
I do regular, regular recordings. Then it's kind of to

521
00:44:01.320 --> 00:44:04.880
me it's sort of like a radio show kind of.

522
00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:10.239
It's not live, but it is now at the moment,

523
00:44:10.280 --> 00:44:18.880
it's live as I record it. He's got his eyes open.

524
00:44:19.159 --> 00:44:23.239
I wonder what he's thinking. He's just laying down his side,

525
00:44:24.039 --> 00:44:29.679
listening to the outside sounds. Lovely sounds. You like the sounds,

526
00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:35.199
don't you? Hey? I put his dinner out this morning,

527
00:44:35.199 --> 00:44:38.639
and his breakfast not touching it, not being hungry, have you?

528
00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:44.840
But when we go out and you see the other

529
00:44:44.920 --> 00:44:48.480
dog walkers and they've got treats, you go, oh, give

530
00:44:48.519 --> 00:44:51.199
me a treat, Give me a treat, don't you? Hey?

531
00:44:51.960 --> 00:44:56.280
Should do so. He's always got a bit of room

532
00:44:56.320 --> 00:44:59.400
and he's tummy for some treats, don't you. And I

533
00:44:59.400 --> 00:45:02.079
shouldn't keep saying that word because I've got none for him.

534
00:45:02.679 --> 00:45:09.599
I've run out. Sorry, mate, you've got food if you

535
00:45:09.719 --> 00:45:15.679
eat it, your little sausage. That's another word that gets

536
00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:25.280
some sausage like sausages. Don't you uncle sausages. I don't

537
00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:27.559
have to, I'll tell you that uncle Sausages. Started calling

538
00:45:27.679 --> 00:45:34.559
Vinnie sausage. They called him, they called him sausages. And

539
00:45:36.000 --> 00:45:39.960
he started asking me how sausage is getting on. It

540
00:45:40.079 --> 00:45:46.239
was so cute, don't it. You loved your uncle sausages,

541
00:45:46.280 --> 00:45:50.039
didn't you, Hey, because he used to the reason we

542
00:45:50.159 --> 00:45:52.960
called him that, the reason Vinnie calls him that is

543
00:45:53.079 --> 00:45:55.719
because he used to buy these sausages, these packs of

544
00:45:55.760 --> 00:46:00.159
sausages from up the road, and they were horrible. I

545
00:46:00.239 --> 00:46:06.320
mean they were supposedly for human consumption, and I would

546
00:46:06.400 --> 00:46:13.639
not touch them. They were like these rubbery I don't know,

547
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:26.039
Frankenfurter Savoloy rubbery. Yes, No, I wouldn't touch him. I

548
00:46:26.199 --> 00:46:30.159
touched him give them to him. He loved them. I

549
00:46:30.239 --> 00:46:31.800
didn't even think he was gonna like him, because I

550
00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:40.679
thought I wouldn't even eat them. But he absolutely adored them,

551
00:46:40.760 --> 00:46:45.599
didn't you. Yes, she did. Got to bite me. You

552
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:49.719
gotta bite me, it's really I put my hand near him,

553
00:46:49.920 --> 00:46:51.920
but my hand away and he tries to bite it.

554
00:46:56.239 --> 00:47:01.320
So I don't know. I'm just waffling now. Hope asks me,

555
00:47:01.519 --> 00:47:07.280
how many times have you cut your toenails since nineteen ninety? Well,

556
00:47:10.039 --> 00:47:13.519
I have, She also say, it's just kidding. I've been

557
00:47:13.559 --> 00:47:18.559
holding in that end for four weeks. I'm going to

558
00:47:18.599 --> 00:47:22.800
answer anyway, So there, How many times are I probably

559
00:47:22.920 --> 00:47:29.440
since nineteen ninety I reckon about three times. Yeah, it's

560
00:47:30.480 --> 00:47:32.559
I'm not very good at cutting my toenails. They need

561
00:47:32.639 --> 00:47:39.960
cutting now, and sometimes they grew. I used to what

562
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:42.639
I used to do, I used to cut them too

563
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:45.639
short and they ended up getting grown toenails when I

564
00:47:45.800 --> 00:47:50.039
was about fifteen sixteen, and I had that as a

565
00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:55.760
problem for a few years. So what I did is

566
00:47:56.159 --> 00:48:01.840
purposely that let them grow so that that never happened again,

567
00:48:01.920 --> 00:48:10.679
and that hasn't happened since. But because of that, the

568
00:48:12.360 --> 00:48:16.400
big toes are not quite as the toenails are quite

569
00:48:16.400 --> 00:48:21.000
as straight as the other ones, because they've been partially

570
00:48:21.079 --> 00:48:27.840
removed in the past. I don't cut them very often,

571
00:48:28.760 --> 00:48:31.159
not as I remember. I had a date. Yeah, I

572
00:48:31.239 --> 00:48:35.199
had a date with this lady back ninety or two

573
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:37.440
thousand and five.

574
00:48:37.719 --> 00:48:38.000
It was.

575
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:47.920
And I went around her house. I wasn't any really

576
00:48:48.000 --> 00:48:53.320
expecting anything to happen, but I ended up with my

577
00:48:53.480 --> 00:49:01.679
socks off and they were like, i'd yeah, it wasn't good.

578
00:49:03.280 --> 00:49:05.440
It was good, but it wasn't you know. My toenails

579
00:49:05.480 --> 00:49:08.639
weren't good. And she cut my toenails. It's like, Okay,

580
00:49:09.400 --> 00:49:11.719
a bit of a weird at the first date, but hey,

581
00:49:12.280 --> 00:49:22.599
I'm going to go with it. And I walked home.

582
00:49:24.960 --> 00:49:29.719
See when I cut my toenails, I checked them. I

583
00:49:29.800 --> 00:49:34.719
didn't check them. Now, I'm not being horrible, but she

584
00:49:35.079 --> 00:49:39.440
didn't cut them properly in a way. Now what I

585
00:49:39.519 --> 00:49:44.320
mean by that is there was one bit of now

586
00:49:44.519 --> 00:49:50.679
sticking out the side. And I walked and there's probably

587
00:49:50.679 --> 00:49:57.000
about an hour over an hour's walk, maybe an hour

588
00:49:57.039 --> 00:50:04.280
and fifteen minute walk home, and my whole sock was

589
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:10.840
soaking with it wasn't sweat anyway. It basically it cut

590
00:50:10.960 --> 00:50:13.679
my toenail. It my tonail cut my other toe open

591
00:50:15.280 --> 00:50:21.639
and it was really sore. Just it's really weird. I

592
00:50:21.719 --> 00:50:29.559
was just like, wow, so pretty much. And I did

593
00:50:29.679 --> 00:50:32.320
have my when I was I've been into a now

594
00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:41.440
salon and have my toenails cut that's weird. That's really is.

595
00:50:41.480 --> 00:50:42.880
By the way, just in case you wonder what the

596
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:46.679
noise is, it's viny and giving himself a little bed bath,

597
00:50:49.480 --> 00:50:55.400
a little flannel, a little flannel bath, a little a

598
00:50:57.239 --> 00:51:00.239
little you know, you know, dogs what they're like to do.

599
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:07.519
Get in there, boy and sa how many since nineteen

600
00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:13.280
ninety Probably how many times do we cut our town

601
00:51:13.360 --> 00:51:20.880
hours in a year? Twice? Three times? Maybe it's definitely

602
00:51:22.400 --> 00:51:26.760
My toenails grow a lot slower than my fingernails. My

603
00:51:26.840 --> 00:51:34.719
fingernails grow really quick. Toenails probably they do need to

604
00:51:34.760 --> 00:51:40.719
be cut now. They are ready. Yeah, they're pretty much.

605
00:51:42.800 --> 00:51:47.039
I'm not saying they're crying out. They're like, oh cut me, please, Daddy,

606
00:51:47.239 --> 00:51:50.960
cut me. No, nothing like that. But they do need

607
00:51:51.360 --> 00:51:57.679
to be trimmed. But they're not like they're not like

608
00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:01.880
a witch's talents. You know, they're not really all curly.

609
00:52:02.119 --> 00:52:09.159
And you see that people that are not Guinness Book

610
00:52:09.199 --> 00:52:15.000
of Records for the longest fingernails, and it's probably that

611
00:52:15.599 --> 00:52:18.800
it's like the pride of their life is having the

612
00:52:18.920 --> 00:52:26.400
longest fingernails. But what quality of life do they have

613
00:52:26.880 --> 00:52:31.559
with those things? You know, they're like twenty foot long?

614
00:52:33.079 --> 00:52:41.199
What can they do? What can they actually do? You

615
00:52:41.280 --> 00:52:46.199
know what I mean? Like why? But yeah, who's who

616
00:52:46.239 --> 00:52:50.239
am I to judge? So probably maybe four times a year,

617
00:52:51.079 --> 00:52:55.679
was it nineteen ninety It might be more than four

618
00:52:55.760 --> 00:52:57.440
times a year. I don't know. I mean there was

619
00:52:57.519 --> 00:53:04.320
a period when, Yeah, I've always had a bit of

620
00:53:04.559 --> 00:53:07.760
sort of kind of forgetfulness when it comes to toenails

621
00:53:08.800 --> 00:53:13.679
because I don't go naked with my toes. They're always

622
00:53:13.719 --> 00:53:18.239
covered up, so no one ever gets to see them,

623
00:53:18.559 --> 00:53:22.280
and I forget they're there. Really, I mean, I know

624
00:53:22.360 --> 00:53:24.960
they're there, but I forget they're there. It's a little

625
00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:29.840
bit like like nipples. Really, I just don't really I

626
00:53:29.880 --> 00:53:32.880
don't give them much thought. Not that I need to

627
00:53:32.920 --> 00:53:35.119
trim in nipples, but you know, I'm just saying that

628
00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:39.440
would be weird. It's it's just it's just not one

629
00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:43.679
belly button. It's just a thing. It's the thing that's there,

630
00:53:46.199 --> 00:53:50.679
and I don't really use anymore. I could go further now,

631
00:53:50.760 --> 00:53:52.559
could know what other parts of my body do not

632
00:53:52.679 --> 00:54:01.320
use anymore. So probably quite a few times forty forty

633
00:54:02.000 --> 00:54:09.159
was it ninety two thousand, ten, twenty forty eighty and

634
00:54:09.360 --> 00:54:19.159
twenty one hundred and forty one hundred and forty times.

635
00:54:19.199 --> 00:54:21.280
That's a lot, isn't it. Probably about one hundred and

636
00:54:21.320 --> 00:54:25.480
forty times, maybe two hundred times, maybe more, maybe less.

637
00:54:26.639 --> 00:54:31.079
I didn't, you know. I mean, there was a time

638
00:54:31.119 --> 00:54:33.960
when I was cutting my toe now was way too often,

639
00:54:34.480 --> 00:54:38.000
which I said that led to me basically messing my

640
00:54:38.119 --> 00:54:40.840
toes up. But they're fine now I don't have that

641
00:54:40.960 --> 00:54:48.440
problem anymore. So Hope, that was Hope's question, real question.

642
00:54:49.039 --> 00:54:55.159
What was your favorite song in the eighties? I have

643
00:54:55.360 --> 00:55:02.039
two favorite songs from the eighties. It's a hard one.

644
00:55:03.719 --> 00:55:15.119
That's hard because let's say go through the eighties. It

645
00:55:15.239 --> 00:55:17.039
depends when you ask me. I mean, I know you're

646
00:55:17.039 --> 00:55:22.679
asking me now. If you'd have asked me in nineteen

647
00:55:23.400 --> 00:55:32.199
eighty six or eighty five or nineteen eighty nine, I

648
00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:34.400
would have given you different questions. I've given you a

649
00:55:34.400 --> 00:55:37.320
different answer. Sorry. So if you'd have asked me nineteen

650
00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:40.800
eighty nine, I very likely would have told you that

651
00:55:41.119 --> 00:55:45.440
Like a Prayer was possibly my favorite song of the

652
00:55:45.599 --> 00:55:52.280
Night of the eighties. But then if you you know,

653
00:55:52.760 --> 00:56:00.119
it depends, But there's two songs that really shine of

654
00:56:00.239 --> 00:56:05.800
all the others. Kind of a nostalgic reason, and I

655
00:56:05.960 --> 00:56:08.360
kind of it reminds me a little bit of when

656
00:56:08.400 --> 00:56:12.840
I was in hospital with my appendix. And those two

657
00:56:12.960 --> 00:56:17.519
songs are Men at Work down Under and totally Clips

658
00:56:17.519 --> 00:56:22.159
of the Heart Body Tyler. She also did a song

659
00:56:22.280 --> 00:56:29.400
called what did She? What was it? We don't need

660
00:56:29.480 --> 00:56:35.079
another hero, We don't need another lasso? No? That was

661
00:56:35.880 --> 00:56:40.480
Tina Turner, wasn't it? There's a hero? No, that's my Kerry.

662
00:56:43.199 --> 00:56:46.880
I'm looking at I'm looking on for a hero. I'm

663
00:56:46.960 --> 00:56:49.000
looking at her the ball to do the end of

664
00:56:49.079 --> 00:56:52.320
the Night. You gotta be strong, and his guard would

665
00:56:52.320 --> 00:56:54.679
be tough, and his guard to be weird, being the

666
00:56:54.760 --> 00:56:58.679
fide I need a hero that one. Yeah, that's Bonnie Tyler.

667
00:56:59.679 --> 00:57:08.039
So I am all of those. Those two songs totally

668
00:57:08.039 --> 00:57:14.960
Clips of the Heart and Man down Under. Yeah, that

669
00:57:15.159 --> 00:57:19.679
they're the two songs that probably are two of my

670
00:57:19.800 --> 00:57:27.360
favorite songs. If I kind of look from a distance, However,

671
00:57:28.039 --> 00:57:29.880
if I was going to go a little bit closer,

672
00:57:31.000 --> 00:57:37.760
a little bit, a little bit closer in probably my

673
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:46.400
favorite singer was Shaken Stevens, but I liked so many,

674
00:57:46.719 --> 00:57:49.960
Like one of my favorite songs would be The Tide

675
00:57:50.079 --> 00:57:56.760
Is High by Blondie. Absolutely loved Blondie, Love Dlo. And

676
00:57:58.559 --> 00:58:01.599
I was a big fan of a lot of the

677
00:58:01.920 --> 00:58:06.719
songs and the bands from the early eighties, late seventies,

678
00:58:06.719 --> 00:58:10.119
early eighties because it was a crossover there. It wasn't there.

679
00:58:10.199 --> 00:58:14.880
I mean, the music didn't change on the January the

680
00:58:14.960 --> 00:58:18.800
first nineteen eighties. From you know, the seventies, there was

681
00:58:18.840 --> 00:58:22.920
a All the big acts in the early eighties were

682
00:58:23.599 --> 00:58:28.519
pretty much from the late seventies. Well it started down

683
00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:44.760
in the seventies, so I would say nineteen eighties Wham.

684
00:58:48.079 --> 00:58:55.800
I loved the Wham songs What's his name? I Wall,

685
00:58:56.039 --> 00:59:01.280
let the Sun go down on and Me then go down?

686
00:59:02.400 --> 00:59:05.519
Nick Kershaw and Nick Kershell is one of my favorite

687
00:59:05.559 --> 00:59:12.159
things as well. For a while, you know, I liked

688
00:59:13.840 --> 00:59:18.639
lots of like you know, the Queen Queen, especially the

689
00:59:20.639 --> 00:59:28.760
soundtrack to Flash Gordon Brilliant, and that's one of my

690
00:59:28.840 --> 00:59:32.840
favorite movies. And I forget about that. I was thinking

691
00:59:32.960 --> 00:59:35.119
the other day. It's another one that I completely forget

692
00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:38.880
when I talk about about my favorite movies of all time, Roadhouse.

693
00:59:41.519 --> 00:59:44.239
So I generally just go with It's a Wonderful Life.

694
00:59:44.280 --> 00:59:46.599
That's my favorite movie, which I'm still going to stick

695
00:59:46.679 --> 00:59:51.480
with it's my favorite all time movie. But I also

696
00:59:51.639 --> 00:59:58.840
love Roadhouse, I love Flash Gordon, I love Greece because

697
00:59:58.920 --> 01:00:02.199
of the feel good and the feel goodedness of it.

698
01:00:03.480 --> 01:00:12.559
They were just fun, fun movies, and I'd say all

699
01:00:12.639 --> 01:00:22.920
of those movies were iconic in their own way. But yeah,

700
01:00:22.960 --> 01:00:25.000
if you get me talk about movies, I can talk

701
01:00:25.079 --> 01:00:28.280
for hours because there's so many different types of movies

702
01:00:28.320 --> 01:00:32.719
I like and have liked over the years, especially comedies.

703
01:00:35.639 --> 01:00:44.320
And I wasn't gonna say yeah, so so I don't

704
01:00:44.440 --> 01:00:50.719
have one favorite song from the eighties. I do, however,

705
01:00:50.960 --> 01:00:58.039
have they would kind of be two of my favorite songs.

706
01:01:01.360 --> 01:01:03.639
But then if we were going to look at Shaking Stevens,

707
01:01:04.800 --> 01:01:07.000
one of my favorite songs that he did was It's

708
01:01:07.119 --> 01:01:11.559
Raining and it was it went like earterining so her

709
01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:16.400
looks like it's got real name. So I love, really

710
01:01:16.440 --> 01:01:19.679
loved that song and the Merry. I like the Christmas

711
01:01:19.719 --> 01:01:30.519
song that he did Mary Christmas every World. I'm just

712
01:01:30.639 --> 01:01:36.519
trying to think this this it's a ten year period.

713
01:01:36.559 --> 01:01:44.199
It's a long time to choose just one song. Yeah,

714
01:01:44.199 --> 01:01:47.800
I struggle with that. If I'm honest, I mean, I

715
01:01:47.880 --> 01:01:51.599
would actually say that totally. Clips of the Heart and

716
01:01:56.199 --> 01:02:03.280
down Under two of my favoritest song was ever But

717
01:02:03.400 --> 01:02:06.960
then if I go to the nineties, I have nothing,

718
01:02:07.480 --> 01:02:12.079
is that I have nothing. Whitney Houston The Bodyguard. I

719
01:02:12.280 --> 01:02:14.480
just fell in love with that song for the second

720
01:02:14.559 --> 01:02:18.000
I heard it, like within seconds of listening. I just

721
01:02:18.159 --> 01:02:21.840
fell in love with that song. I prefer I liked

722
01:02:21.880 --> 01:02:25.679
it way more than the I Will Always Know, I

723
01:02:25.719 --> 01:02:29.320
Will Always Love You or whatever it's called, you know,

724
01:02:29.400 --> 01:02:34.119
the big one that she did. And I hadn't seen

725
01:02:34.159 --> 01:02:37.079
the movie, so I got the I got like a

726
01:02:37.159 --> 01:02:46.320
bootleg tape of it. Of the album, I think it

727
01:02:46.400 --> 01:02:51.400
was a pound or two pound, something like that, and

728
01:02:51.480 --> 01:02:54.119
I just love like that. I think the cover was

729
01:02:54.159 --> 01:03:00.000
in black and white printed obviously or now probably photocops,

730
01:03:03.840 --> 01:03:07.840
but really I love that. It's like wow. And there's

731
01:03:07.880 --> 01:03:10.159
some songs even in the eighties. I remember there was

732
01:03:10.199 --> 01:03:15.199
a song meat Loaf and share I Don't Know What

733
01:03:15.400 --> 01:03:23.239
to Do where they're in a bar singing since AB

734
01:03:23.280 --> 01:03:25.400
been hanging around with you do do do do do

735
01:03:25.519 --> 01:03:27.639
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do

736
01:03:27.719 --> 01:03:30.360
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do do

737
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:34.480
do do do do do do do Baby baby, baby, baby,

738
01:03:34.679 --> 01:03:39.360
fucking Erul rock and roll, the Po Boo that one.

739
01:03:40.280 --> 01:03:42.239
And I remember waking up to that because I used

740
01:03:42.280 --> 01:03:44.199
to have a radio when I was a kid at school.

741
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:47.079
I didn't carry around at school, that would be weird,

742
01:03:48.039 --> 01:03:52.960
but I had a radio, like a clock radio next

743
01:03:53.000 --> 01:03:55.760
to my bed and wake me up because I you know,

744
01:03:55.800 --> 01:04:01.280
I had paper rounds and various different part time jobs

745
01:04:01.320 --> 01:04:08.000
over the years when I was at school and it

746
01:04:08.239 --> 01:04:19.480
was what was it? It was something? I yeah, I

747
01:04:19.559 --> 01:04:22.920
woke up to that song. I remember, this is weird.

748
01:04:23.000 --> 01:04:24.679
I remember that. I don't know what year it was,

749
01:04:25.519 --> 01:04:29.159
but I remember waking up to it and like, I

750
01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:34.920
loved it. I hadn't seen the video. I didn't. I

751
01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:38.000
mean MTV was around, but I didn't have access to it.

752
01:04:39.360 --> 01:04:41.760
It wasn't really on the normal channels. I think you

753
01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:44.880
had to get satellite to get hold of things like that.

754
01:04:46.199 --> 01:04:49.239
And that's back in the day when MTV, which I

755
01:04:49.320 --> 01:04:55.159
do believe stands for Music Television, actually had music on it.

756
01:04:56.719 --> 01:04:59.400
I mean, just change your name, baby, change your name.

757
01:04:59.599 --> 01:05:01.840
If you're not going to have videos anymore, change the name.

758
01:05:02.480 --> 01:05:06.519
Don't don't. What's what's with the like it's now just

759
01:05:06.679 --> 01:05:10.920
reality programs on there as far as my way. I mean,

760
01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:15.840
I haven't watched it for years, but it was MTV

761
01:05:16.400 --> 01:05:23.559
changed the music industry. It made it more available, not

762
01:05:23.679 --> 01:05:28.519
to people in England unfortunately, but it paved the way

763
01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:32.599
it kind of got acts started to make videos and

764
01:05:32.639 --> 01:05:36.440
putting a bit more effort into the videos, which everyone

765
01:05:36.519 --> 01:05:40.159
got to see because I imagine every every country had

766
01:05:40.199 --> 01:05:46.599
their own music show on television that showed the videos.

767
01:05:47.880 --> 01:05:50.840
Our one was Top of the Pops, which was the

768
01:05:50.920 --> 01:05:55.480
biggest music show in the country that was on a

769
01:05:55.639 --> 01:05:59.400
Thursday night. I do if I believe. Yeah, it was

770
01:05:59.440 --> 01:06:02.960
on a Thursday day night for the whole of the eighties.

771
01:06:04.280 --> 01:06:06.440
It was on in the nineties and the two thousands

772
01:06:06.440 --> 01:06:08.559
as well, but it hasn't been on for years. It's

773
01:06:08.599 --> 01:06:10.719
on in the seventies and the sixties. It's a very

774
01:06:10.760 --> 01:06:16.679
long running show. But then there was some other video

775
01:06:16.679 --> 01:06:19.880
and there's other shows came on music shows that showed videos,

776
01:06:20.800 --> 01:06:25.239
but we didn't get MTV, not unless you had a satellite.

777
01:06:25.920 --> 01:06:29.920
And I think in the nineties when Sky came up,

778
01:06:30.400 --> 01:06:33.519
or the late eighties, s Guy came along giving people

779
01:06:33.679 --> 01:06:38.159
satellites and you could watch TV programs and TV channels

780
01:06:38.679 --> 01:06:42.679
from other countries I did. I never had access to it,

781
01:06:42.840 --> 01:06:44.840
so I never got to see it. I knew what

782
01:06:44.960 --> 01:06:48.239
it was, I know what MTV was, but I didn't

783
01:06:49.760 --> 01:06:52.320
I didn't get to see it. I mean, I still

784
01:06:52.400 --> 01:07:02.400
remember when Michael Jackson released his thriller song Thriller video,

785
01:07:02.599 --> 01:07:05.639
you know, the big, the long video of him where

786
01:07:05.679 --> 01:07:08.360
he's a werewolf and all that stuff, and he's in

787
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:12.360
the cinema and eating popcorn and stuff, you remember that,

788
01:07:12.480 --> 01:07:19.360
and wearing a red, red leather jacket. And I was

789
01:07:19.400 --> 01:07:21.719
allowed to stay up late to watch that, and I

790
01:07:21.800 --> 01:07:25.639
was on Channel four at that time. Channel four was

791
01:07:25.679 --> 01:07:28.800
quite a new channel, and then a little bit irreverent,

792
01:07:29.000 --> 01:07:31.639
you know, a little bit a little bit, a little

793
01:07:31.639 --> 01:07:34.039
bit dangerous, a little bit oo, a little bit r

794
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:38.280
And before that we just had three channels, BBC one,

795
01:07:38.440 --> 01:07:43.559
BBC two, ITV. So I'm pretty sure during my lifetime

796
01:07:43.760 --> 01:07:47.559
there was three channels. And then in nineteen I think

797
01:07:47.719 --> 01:07:51.880
eighty might be an eighty one, but I think it

798
01:07:51.920 --> 01:07:58.239
was eighty. Channel four came along, and then in nineteen

799
01:07:58.400 --> 01:08:09.440
ninety five, no, nineteen ninety seven, nineteen ninety seven, we

800
01:08:09.719 --> 01:08:19.760
had Channel five. I remember seeing that being launched. I

801
01:08:19.840 --> 01:08:23.319
watched it as it was being launched, because I'm not

802
01:08:23.439 --> 01:08:25.640
sure if I got to see Channel four be launched.

803
01:08:27.800 --> 01:08:30.359
I mean those were the days. You know, if you've

804
01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:33.600
only got like three channels or four channels, when you

805
01:08:33.680 --> 01:08:37.079
get a fifth channel launched, it's a big deal. But

806
01:08:37.239 --> 01:08:39.600
if you're used to having well like we do now

807
01:08:40.399 --> 01:08:44.000
we have I don't know know how many. There are

808
01:08:45.520 --> 01:08:47.840
loads and loads and loads and loads and loads and

809
01:08:47.920 --> 01:08:51.920
loads and loads of channels. It's not a big deal anymore.

810
01:08:52.960 --> 01:08:57.479
I mean ITV is now called ITV one, there's ITV two,

811
01:08:58.760 --> 01:09:03.279
BBC one still bb and you've got BBC two. You

812
01:09:03.399 --> 01:09:06.359
got BBC three now, or you used to have BBC three.

813
01:09:06.399 --> 01:09:09.680
I think they got rid of it. Channel four, Channel five,

814
01:09:09.800 --> 01:09:14.439
and then loads of others. But Channel five launched, and

815
01:09:15.119 --> 01:09:19.760
someone I knew was actually launching it, like Tim Yne,

816
01:09:19.920 --> 01:09:22.439
who was a community He is a comedian who I

817
01:09:22.560 --> 01:09:28.119
was friends with. He actually was the star of He

818
01:09:28.279 --> 01:09:31.399
was almost like the face of Channel five when it launched.

819
01:09:33.560 --> 01:09:36.239
It was so exciting and there was other comedians on there,

820
01:09:36.319 --> 01:09:41.359
and it was, yeah, brilliant. I'd like to rewatch that. Actually,

821
01:09:41.359 --> 01:09:45.600
I wonder if it's on YouTube. Channel five launch launch night,

822
01:09:46.760 --> 01:09:52.079
it might be. You know, I'm going to check that out.

823
01:09:54.680 --> 01:10:01.800
And yes, I don't have I don't have one favorite

824
01:10:01.960 --> 01:10:10.800
song in the eighties. I'm not going to say that all.

825
01:10:13.199 --> 01:10:14.880
I don't want to get stuck in the eighties. I

826
01:10:14.880 --> 01:10:16.279
don't want to get stuck. I don't want to be

827
01:10:18.199 --> 01:10:21.600
like that where I'm stuck in one decade. But the

828
01:10:21.680 --> 01:10:24.880
eighties was my decade really. It was like from the

829
01:10:24.920 --> 01:10:28.920
age of ten to twenty the eighties, but then between

830
01:10:28.960 --> 01:10:32.840
twenty and thirty was also my decade, the nineties because

831
01:10:32.880 --> 01:10:35.239
you know, I was very aware of the music during

832
01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:37.600
that period as well. Plus I was a DJ for

833
01:10:37.640 --> 01:10:40.359
the last part of the nineties, so I was, you know,

834
01:10:40.800 --> 01:10:43.479
have my finger on the.

835
01:10:45.039 --> 01:10:45.239
Well.

836
01:10:45.279 --> 01:10:48.079
I was kind of aware of what was what was

837
01:10:48.760 --> 01:10:56.000
popular at the time, not just what I liked. And

838
01:10:56.119 --> 01:10:59.560
then when we moved into the two thousands, you know,

839
01:10:59.600 --> 01:11:06.199
I had albums that I liked, but I kind of

840
01:11:06.720 --> 01:11:11.199
drifted a bit away from music. Thanks Fanny for Flappy

841
01:11:11.279 --> 01:11:20.880
years twoy tens, not really much. I just I've lost

842
01:11:21.399 --> 01:11:26.560
I've lost my way with music, with modern music, and

843
01:11:26.640 --> 01:11:29.439
that's really sad that I'm saying. Modern music makes me

844
01:11:29.720 --> 01:11:35.119
really feel old. Just saying it out loud, but I'm not.

845
01:11:35.680 --> 01:11:37.880
I don't want to be the person that says all

846
01:11:38.319 --> 01:11:42.840
music's hasn't been a decent music. It decent songs since

847
01:11:43.000 --> 01:11:44.880
nineteen eighty nine. You know, I don't want to be

848
01:11:45.039 --> 01:11:49.279
that person, because it's not true. There's some great songs

849
01:11:49.319 --> 01:11:53.079
out now. I just haven't heard them, and millions of

850
01:11:53.119 --> 01:11:57.279
people are loving listening to them, so they can't. They've

851
01:11:57.279 --> 01:11:59.279
got to be good. I just may not be able to.

852
01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:03.680
I might not relate to some of the music, but

853
01:12:03.800 --> 01:12:06.000
I can't. I don't think I've ever related to anything

854
01:12:06.000 --> 01:12:10.840
I've listened to ever. Anyway, did you hear a turned

855
01:12:10.920 --> 01:12:15.520
down under We're women all and plunder? I can relate

856
01:12:15.600 --> 01:12:20.520
to that. Turn around even now and then I get

857
01:12:20.520 --> 01:12:23.159
a little bit men a good and never woon around

858
01:12:23.640 --> 01:12:26.279
turn Around. I couldn't relate to that. I don't know

859
01:12:26.279 --> 01:12:31.680
what they were singing about love song. I think, you know,

860
01:12:31.840 --> 01:12:34.960
I just I didn't listen to the lyrics. I just

861
01:12:35.159 --> 01:12:38.239
which evident because I don't remember them. I just if

862
01:12:38.279 --> 01:12:43.039
I liked a song, I like it. It almost doesn't

863
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:44.800
even matter if it's in English or not. If I

864
01:12:45.039 --> 01:12:50.199
like a song, then it's because of the sound, because

865
01:12:50.239 --> 01:12:54.760
of the vocals, maybe because of the music. I don't know.

866
01:12:54.880 --> 01:12:58.239
It could be any any number of reasons, but I

867
01:12:58.319 --> 01:13:03.479
don't have to know the reason behind a song. Like

868
01:13:03.640 --> 01:13:06.640
my friend Luke, he used to listen to lyrics and

869
01:13:06.800 --> 01:13:09.199
he said, listen to lyrics. I said, I know this song.

870
01:13:09.600 --> 01:13:11.600
He said, but if you listen to the lyrics, I said, no,

871
01:13:12.920 --> 01:13:15.920
But you've listened to this song for twenty years, I said,

872
01:13:15.920 --> 01:13:18.840
I don't know. You don't know what he's singing about.

873
01:13:19.520 --> 01:13:21.920
I said, no, no idea. I just like the song.

874
01:13:22.600 --> 01:13:24.760
He could be singing in Arabic would make no difference

875
01:13:24.800 --> 01:13:28.720
to me. It's almost like I don't take any notice

876
01:13:28.760 --> 01:13:32.600
of what's being said. Sometimes it's almost like a conversation

877
01:13:32.760 --> 01:13:37.760
with another person. And you wonder why I stopped being

878
01:13:37.800 --> 01:13:42.319
a counselor. Wow, I used to be a I think

879
01:13:42.399 --> 01:13:44.760
I was quite a good counselor. I tell you the

880
01:13:44.840 --> 01:13:48.439
one thing. I came from an angle which a lot

881
01:13:48.520 --> 01:13:53.359
of other counselors possibly don't, and it's like a non

882
01:13:53.479 --> 01:13:59.039
human angle. It's quite normal for people I've noticed too

883
01:13:59.600 --> 01:14:03.239
all my is to feel that maybe they know stuff

884
01:14:04.239 --> 01:14:09.600
and that they're the expert. And I've noticed that in

885
01:14:09.760 --> 01:14:12.439
life and with a counselor's like, you know, all, I've

886
01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:15.560
got a degree, therefore I know about counseling, and which

887
01:14:15.600 --> 01:14:20.439
is true, they do as I did. But the fact

888
01:14:20.600 --> 01:14:22.800
is it didn't mean that I knew about the person

889
01:14:22.880 --> 01:14:27.000
in front of me, and no amount of degrees was

890
01:14:27.039 --> 01:14:30.960
really going to give that, or maybe it could. I

891
01:14:31.119 --> 01:14:34.560
just didn't have the natural ability to know. So what

892
01:14:34.720 --> 01:14:39.359
I did is because I didn't understand. I've never really

893
01:14:39.439 --> 01:14:45.199
understood anyone, just you know, the automatic, Oh, I get

894
01:14:45.239 --> 01:14:49.439
what that person's about. I understand where you're coming from. No,

895
01:14:49.720 --> 01:14:53.800
I don't, and I'll admit which a lot of people.

896
01:14:53.840 --> 01:14:56.239
I've never known anyone to admit it. I'll admit I

897
01:14:56.319 --> 01:15:05.560
don't understand people. But in that situation, I would try

898
01:15:05.640 --> 01:15:10.119
to understand the person. And that's what made me a

899
01:15:10.159 --> 01:15:14.000
little bit different from perhaps some of the other counselors.

900
01:15:14.239 --> 01:15:21.319
I'm not saying better, just different is I didn't understand

901
01:15:21.720 --> 01:15:24.840
their situation. Why has you got to eat treats now

902
01:15:24.960 --> 01:15:29.239
while I'm doing this? I didn't understand them or their situation,

903
01:15:29.920 --> 01:15:32.399
So they had to explain it to me, and by

904
01:15:32.520 --> 01:15:38.359
explaining it to me, we both kind of got to

905
01:15:38.520 --> 01:15:43.560
understand what was going on, because it was almost I

906
01:15:43.560 --> 01:15:50.560
suppose for them, I wasn't he's hungry now, he wants

907
01:15:50.600 --> 01:15:57.840
his dinner now. It was almost that we were talking

908
01:15:57.920 --> 01:16:01.119
two different languages and they were trying to explain in

909
01:16:01.520 --> 01:16:07.119
a different language my language, what exactly they wanted to order.

910
01:16:07.920 --> 01:16:10.720
You know, I guess it's a little bit like being

911
01:16:11.560 --> 01:16:16.279
me being a call center operator and then phoning up

912
01:16:16.680 --> 01:16:20.319
their bank and they're getting through to me, whose my

913
01:16:20.439 --> 01:16:23.960
first language is a completely different language, and they're trying

914
01:16:24.039 --> 01:16:28.079
to kind of understand what I'm saying to them, which

915
01:16:28.159 --> 01:16:31.920
means I have to concentrate more. Will you? Will you

916
01:16:32.199 --> 01:16:41.359
please get off me? And because I came from a

917
01:16:41.560 --> 01:16:46.720
non a non knowing, I really wish it could. Could

918
01:16:46.760 --> 01:16:49.039
you just lay down there, please? Mate? Please? Sorry, Linny,

919
01:16:49.800 --> 01:16:51.840
you're not This is not the right time for you

920
01:16:51.960 --> 01:16:56.680
to be standing on the laptop. No, there's no good

921
01:16:56.720 --> 01:17:06.359
time for you to stand on a laptop. Really. Yes, Yeah,

922
01:17:06.439 --> 01:17:08.720
that's kind of the way I went with that, in

923
01:17:08.840 --> 01:17:19.920
a sense of I didn't have preconceived opinions about someone,

924
01:17:21.319 --> 01:17:27.920
and I learned about them from them, from what they said,

925
01:17:28.960 --> 01:17:32.399
rather than from what I was just thinking in my

926
01:17:32.479 --> 01:17:37.520
own head. Yeah, I seem to do quite well for

927
01:17:38.000 --> 01:17:42.880
a while, seemed yeah, I think so. I don't know.

928
01:17:43.239 --> 01:17:45.880
I always promised myself when I was training that if

929
01:17:45.920 --> 01:17:48.960
I was no good, I would quit. Now I did quit,

930
01:17:49.960 --> 01:17:53.039
but only quit because there was no work because of

931
01:17:53.239 --> 01:17:57.880
the basically government cuts. So I went from I think

932
01:17:58.159 --> 01:18:03.239
sixteen hours a week to three, which or four which

933
01:18:03.399 --> 01:18:07.239
wasn't I was like one hundred pounds a week, which

934
01:18:07.279 --> 01:18:12.159
is not a Liverpool amount, which I ended up working

935
01:18:12.199 --> 01:18:16.399
in the course center. Again blind me. I haven't really

936
01:18:16.439 --> 01:18:21.960
answered your question. I hope haven't. I probably about two

937
01:18:22.079 --> 01:18:25.039
hundred and twenty nine times I've cut my toenails. I

938
01:18:25.119 --> 01:18:28.880
don't know, maybe more because that might be just discussed inside,

939
01:18:28.960 --> 01:18:35.359
maybe thousands a million times now. Barry asked me, have

940
01:18:35.479 --> 01:18:38.760
you ever been fishing? And I have? I have, I have,

941
01:18:38.960 --> 01:18:43.079
I have. I wish I hadn't, but I have. It

942
01:18:43.399 --> 01:18:49.720
was the coldest I have ever been in my entire life.

943
01:18:51.960 --> 01:18:53.520
And I don't know why I wanted to do it.

944
01:18:54.399 --> 01:19:00.399
I got no, there's no logical reason for it. I

945
01:19:00.640 --> 01:19:05.960
just had this this idea because I used to live

946
01:19:05.960 --> 01:19:10.079
there was a peer, and because on the beach. I

947
01:19:10.199 --> 01:19:12.399
do miss the beach to be honest, it wasn't a

948
01:19:12.439 --> 01:19:14.600
very good beach, but I just liked having the sea

949
01:19:15.640 --> 01:19:21.600
and yeah, it was just something nice about being able

950
01:19:21.640 --> 01:19:26.680
to look out the sea. And I tell you what,

951
01:19:27.960 --> 01:19:32.920
regardless of what anyone's political opinions are, there's a certain

952
01:19:33.199 --> 01:19:38.640
very famous politician that visited this country recently and they

953
01:19:38.760 --> 01:19:42.279
said that this person said that the problem with our

954
01:19:42.319 --> 01:19:48.640
beaches is the wind. Those windmill electric windmill things are

955
01:19:48.720 --> 01:19:55.199
just plain ugly and they are ruined. They've ruined the seaside.

956
01:19:55.760 --> 01:20:00.600
I think they're horrible. I know they need did perhaps,

957
01:20:00.680 --> 01:20:12.239
but so yeah, I'm just moaning about windmills. Now they're

958
01:20:12.279 --> 01:20:14.560
not windmills whatever they called. Do you know those things,

959
01:20:14.600 --> 01:20:21.640
the electric things that go around. That's just horrible. They

960
01:20:21.680 --> 01:20:25.119
had him like twenty years ago. I went to Lower

961
01:20:25.199 --> 01:20:28.560
Stuffed to do a reflexology course and they had them there.

962
01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:30.079
That was horrible.

963
01:20:30.680 --> 01:20:34.680
I really like get rid of that thing. Man. It's

964
01:20:34.880 --> 01:20:40.119
just because we're such a tiny country and our beaches

965
01:20:40.159 --> 01:20:44.199
are small. The sea. I'm not saying all beaches small,

966
01:20:44.239 --> 01:20:47.880
but you know, it's nice to go to look. One

967
01:20:47.880 --> 01:20:52.399
of the things I liked about the sea is the quietness,

968
01:20:53.119 --> 01:20:55.760
or maybe just being able to hit the waves. It's windy.

969
01:20:56.279 --> 01:20:59.479
On a really windy day, no one's around during the winter.

970
01:20:59.600 --> 01:21:03.079
You can just walk around and it's quite nice and

971
01:21:03.319 --> 01:21:07.840
have a little paddle. But to be able to look

972
01:21:08.000 --> 01:21:11.640
out to the sea and not have anything obstructing your

973
01:21:11.720 --> 01:21:15.119
vision is nice. I like that. When I was young,

974
01:21:15.199 --> 01:21:19.560
guys really liked that. It was quite nice to think

975
01:21:19.640 --> 01:21:22.119
as well, just to walk on a promenade and just

976
01:21:23.039 --> 01:21:27.800
have a little think. So for some reason, I was

977
01:21:27.880 --> 01:21:33.720
probably about thirteen at this time, I bought a fishing

978
01:21:33.800 --> 01:21:37.680
lot all the fishing equipment from my neighbor, my friend's dad.

979
01:21:38.800 --> 01:21:45.119
I don't know why, but I did it. And it

980
01:21:45.319 --> 01:21:51.920
was the coldest, windiest, rainiest, freezing cold day in the

981
01:21:52.119 --> 01:21:56.960
history of mankind. I'm not dressed for it. I've got

982
01:21:57.039 --> 01:21:59.199
my Parker on, but I'm not dressed. I don't have

983
01:21:59.680 --> 01:22:03.520
the clothing. I had the proper equipment, but not the

984
01:22:03.560 --> 01:22:08.399
proper clothing. And on the hill down they sold bait

985
01:22:08.520 --> 01:22:10.640
and stuff, so I got some bait on the way there.

986
01:22:10.760 --> 01:22:13.319
And I didn't really know what I was doing, but

987
01:22:13.640 --> 01:22:21.800
I spent years ice cream man so loud. I spent

988
01:22:22.119 --> 01:22:26.359
years doing going on to the pier and talking to

989
01:22:26.399 --> 01:22:28.960
the people fishing, So I kind of had a little

990
01:22:29.039 --> 01:22:31.479
I knew my way around it a little bit because

991
01:22:31.479 --> 01:22:33.920
we'll just chat with them, because that's what fishermen doing it.

992
01:22:34.039 --> 01:22:37.880
They're fishing. Once they've kind of put the thing off

993
01:22:37.920 --> 01:22:40.439
the pier, once they've chucked it out, they're just sitting

994
01:22:40.520 --> 01:22:43.319
there most of the time. So they talked to us,

995
01:22:43.479 --> 01:22:48.319
and you know, yeah, so I kind of kind of

996
01:22:48.359 --> 01:22:50.159
got to know a little bit how they were doing stuff.

997
01:22:50.239 --> 01:22:53.239
Sometimes i'd look after the after their rods when they

998
01:22:53.319 --> 01:22:56.279
went to the toilet and things like that, or went

999
01:22:56.359 --> 01:22:58.159
to get sant to eat because the peer had like

1000
01:22:58.239 --> 01:23:02.159
a canteen, or rearrested dr thing on there. So you know,

1001
01:23:02.319 --> 01:23:05.760
I thought maybe I'd like to do it myself. On

1002
01:23:05.880 --> 01:23:09.439
this occasion, there was no one else there, no one there,

1003
01:23:10.359 --> 01:23:13.159
just me, and I really thought I was going to

1004
01:23:13.199 --> 01:23:15.119
get blown out to see. And at one point I

1005
01:23:15.199 --> 01:23:17.239
thought getting blown out to see would be much more

1006
01:23:17.359 --> 01:23:21.239
enjoyable than standing on that pier with my fishing rod

1007
01:23:22.760 --> 01:23:25.000
bear in my mind, I can't even swim. Just tells

1008
01:23:25.039 --> 01:23:29.399
you how much fun I was having. I came home,

1009
01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:33.800
I carried the stuff. I don't know why I should

1010
01:23:33.840 --> 01:23:35.319
have just left the stuff on the pier, but I

1011
01:23:35.359 --> 01:23:47.680
didn't carried it home, and I could not believe how

1012
01:23:47.800 --> 01:23:53.319
cold I was. I got home eventually, and I'll admit

1013
01:23:53.760 --> 01:23:56.600
I didn't live far away. Honestly, it was like upper

1014
01:23:56.680 --> 01:23:59.600
Hill and up the road. It wasn't a long distance

1015
01:24:00.399 --> 01:24:06.800
twenty minutes maybe if that. And I was so cold

1016
01:24:06.920 --> 01:24:09.319
and that was never ever going to do that again.

1017
01:24:09.560 --> 01:24:13.359
I never have. And the next day I took the rods,

1018
01:24:13.960 --> 01:24:18.039
all the stuff back to my dad's my friend's dad's place,

1019
01:24:19.479 --> 01:24:21.760
and he said, I'm not buying them back off here.

1020
01:24:21.800 --> 01:24:23.840
I said, I don't care take them back. I don't

1021
01:24:23.840 --> 01:24:29.000
want him. So we got to sell them twice. He

1022
01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:31.359
couldn't believe it, he said that. I said, I don't.

1023
01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:34.600
I don't want them want to see him again. He said,

1024
01:24:34.640 --> 01:24:37.479
you already bought him a day ago. I said, yeah,

1025
01:24:37.560 --> 01:24:43.920
I know. There you go to Rah to tire. And

1026
01:24:44.039 --> 01:24:46.279
that was it. That was the end of my fishing career.

1027
01:24:47.239 --> 01:24:52.560
Now Luke downstairs, he loved fishing, that was his favorite thing.

1028
01:24:54.720 --> 01:24:58.720
But he kept asking me come fishing with me, and

1029
01:24:58.960 --> 01:25:01.159
he liked to do it on late and pond not

1030
01:25:01.319 --> 01:25:04.920
ponds in lakes and stuff, you know, rivers and stuff.

1031
01:25:04.960 --> 01:25:08.760
He didn't do it off of any peers. I don't

1032
01:25:08.800 --> 01:25:10.399
think he might have done in the past, but we

1033
01:25:10.479 --> 01:25:14.600
don't have that around here. And I kept saying no, Now.

1034
01:25:14.720 --> 01:25:17.439
I bought him fishing equipment, rods and all kinds of

1035
01:25:17.479 --> 01:25:21.359
stuff so that he could go, because I thought it

1036
01:25:21.439 --> 01:25:23.439
was important that he went and done something he wanted

1037
01:25:23.479 --> 01:25:26.039
to do. He got him out and gave him an

1038
01:25:26.079 --> 01:25:31.119
interest because he loved doing that, but he just didn't

1039
01:25:31.119 --> 01:25:34.439
want to go on his own. And he's like, well,

1040
01:25:34.520 --> 01:25:38.479
please come with me. I said, no, that's the I

1041
01:25:38.640 --> 01:25:42.199
just can't think of. It's not something I'm ever going

1042
01:25:42.279 --> 01:25:46.600
to do. I'm never going to go fishing ever, apart

1043
01:25:46.640 --> 01:25:50.439
from the fact that I'm not really as I got older,

1044
01:25:50.560 --> 01:25:53.039
fishing doesn't really appeal to me on different levels as well.

1045
01:25:54.560 --> 01:26:02.159
But I'm never outside of survival. Not go fishing ain't

1046
01:26:02.159 --> 01:26:06.000
gonna happen. But what if you had a What if

1047
01:26:06.039 --> 01:26:09.880
your grandson became a fisher person and he loved it

1048
01:26:09.960 --> 01:26:11.399
and he wanted you to go with him, wanted his

1049
01:26:11.520 --> 01:26:14.359
granddad to go with him. I haven't got any grand kids,

1050
01:26:15.039 --> 01:26:19.760
so it's not going to happen in that situation, then yeah,

1051
01:26:19.760 --> 01:26:22.359
I probably would go, you know. I mean, it's just

1052
01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:27.359
I'm sure if my dad said, oh, please come fishing

1053
01:26:27.479 --> 01:26:30.159
with me and your little brother, you know, it's just

1054
01:26:30.319 --> 01:26:33.199
to be really nice if we can just have the

1055
01:26:33.279 --> 01:26:36.560
weekend away together. And we've never done anything like this before,

1056
01:26:36.680 --> 01:26:41.000
and I wouldn't want to go, but I probably would

1057
01:26:41.079 --> 01:26:43.000
go because it's my dad, it's my little brother, and

1058
01:26:43.119 --> 01:26:48.119
it's a one off situation. They'd have to be warm,

1059
01:26:48.840 --> 01:26:52.159
it'd have to be summer, and if we're staying in tents,

1060
01:26:52.840 --> 01:26:58.239
he'd have to put the tent up. Ideally it would

1061
01:26:58.279 --> 01:27:00.920
be in the grounds of a hotel. Hell, where we

1062
01:27:01.000 --> 01:27:04.159
can stay in a hotel. I don't want to be

1063
01:27:04.239 --> 01:27:13.279
camping really, I don't want to do no tending. So

1064
01:27:13.439 --> 01:27:21.840
maybe in that situation I could do it. Maybe, But

1065
01:27:22.000 --> 01:27:27.720
outside of that, and that's not going to happen. The

1066
01:27:27.880 --> 01:27:31.119
chances that my dad phoning me up and saying hello, son,

1067
01:27:31.199 --> 01:27:32.760
that's what he calls me. He doesn't know my name,

1068
01:27:34.079 --> 01:27:35.880
doesn't know any of our names. He's calls us all

1069
01:27:35.960 --> 01:27:41.079
sun It's Caesar, isn't it. Apart from you know, my sister,

1070
01:27:41.199 --> 01:27:47.439
he calls her daughter and her kid's grandson and granddaughter.

1071
01:27:48.159 --> 01:27:53.159
He doesn't learn anyone's names, and he if he you know,

1072
01:27:53.680 --> 01:27:55.600
if he did find out and say, oh, me and

1073
01:27:55.800 --> 01:28:00.760
your me and your brother are going to go out,

1074
01:28:01.279 --> 01:28:05.000
or me and Sun number three four on the sudden

1075
01:28:05.039 --> 01:28:08.439
number three, Yeah, me and Sun number three. No, me

1076
01:28:08.560 --> 01:28:12.319
and Sudden number four want to go fishing. You're going

1077
01:28:12.399 --> 01:28:14.359
to come with us? And I'd say, I'd say no,

1078
01:28:16.000 --> 01:28:22.680
I'll go on. Please be your best friend. I might think, well, maybe,

1079
01:28:23.319 --> 01:28:32.520
you know, but there has to be rules. I'm not

1080
01:28:32.600 --> 01:28:34.960
going to fish. I'll sit there, but I probably won't,

1081
01:28:35.159 --> 01:28:42.800
you know, I'll just just hang around and hotel room

1082
01:28:44.880 --> 01:28:50.520
during the summer, but not not hot summer. I'm not

1083
01:28:50.600 --> 01:28:53.199
sitting in the sun. But it has to be, you know,

1084
01:28:53.840 --> 01:28:57.520
a good kind of weather time, maybe spring, maybe autumn

1085
01:28:58.960 --> 01:29:07.239
where it's still like fairly mild, you know, and if

1086
01:29:07.279 --> 01:29:11.880
it rains, got shelter but it's not cold. I can't

1087
01:29:11.920 --> 01:29:15.479
be doing winter. Sitting outside in the winter not really

1088
01:29:15.560 --> 01:29:17.880
my thing. Although you know, I've got a bit of

1089
01:29:18.000 --> 01:29:22.439
flabber now, and I a bit of flabby blubber on me,

1090
01:29:23.279 --> 01:29:27.119
which I didn't have when I first fished. I probably,

1091
01:29:27.680 --> 01:29:32.560
I mean I was I had just skinned skin and bone.

1092
01:29:32.600 --> 01:29:35.760
I didn't have any weight on me when I was thirteen,

1093
01:29:37.399 --> 01:29:40.399
So perhaps I wouldn't get as cold now as I

1094
01:29:40.560 --> 01:29:44.920
used to. But I've noticed that since last year when

1095
01:29:44.920 --> 01:29:48.880
I lost the stone. It's fourteen pounds or more. Actually,

1096
01:29:49.720 --> 01:29:54.920
I noticed last winter that I could feel the cold

1097
01:29:54.960 --> 01:29:58.279
a little bit more because I didn't have that insulation,

1098
01:29:58.560 --> 01:30:04.720
that Walrus insulation that I normally have, my little seal protection.

1099
01:30:06.279 --> 01:30:10.279
You know, the blubber wasn't there. Well, there was less

1100
01:30:10.399 --> 01:30:12.920
blobber there. There's still plenty of blood. There was still

1101
01:30:13.039 --> 01:30:19.880
plenty there, I'll trust me, but it's a lot less

1102
01:30:20.079 --> 01:30:24.279
because I was sixteen stone before, I was about one

1103
01:30:24.319 --> 01:30:29.399
hundred kilos. Now I'm just under fifteen stone, which is probably,

1104
01:30:29.479 --> 01:30:36.560
I don't know, ninety five kilos maybe, so it's a

1105
01:30:36.680 --> 01:30:43.960
fair fair drop. But it really is five percent of

1106
01:30:44.000 --> 01:30:48.600
my body weight. It's quite a big percentage. Isn't it

1107
01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:54.840
five percent to lose? Yeah, that's if it's correct. I

1108
01:30:54.880 --> 01:31:01.039
don't know. So thank you, Hope and barriedly two questions.

1109
01:31:02.439 --> 01:31:06.800
So I didn't really have a lot of That's what

1110
01:31:06.960 --> 01:31:13.159
I'm recording. So sure it's only ninety two minutes long. Wow,

1111
01:31:15.119 --> 01:31:22.840
oh dear, but thank you, thank you for your messages,

1112
01:31:22.920 --> 01:31:30.000
thank you for your for your questions. So it's half

1113
01:31:30.119 --> 01:31:35.640
past six. Vinnie's not as agitated as he was a

1114
01:31:35.720 --> 01:31:38.319
few minutes ago when he was looking for something to eat.

1115
01:31:38.479 --> 01:31:40.600
So I might go and get his dinner for him,

1116
01:31:43.359 --> 01:31:49.960
and then I'm gonna have to get myself something to eat.

1117
01:31:50.000 --> 01:31:59.199
But I don't know quite what. I don't know what. Well,

1118
01:31:59.199 --> 01:32:02.920
I wonder if that curtain's been delivered yet. It's not

1119
01:32:03.000 --> 01:32:05.640
actually a curtain, but it's it's kind of like a

1120
01:32:08.079 --> 01:32:09.760
I don't know what they call it, like a blanket,

1121
01:32:09.840 --> 01:32:16.199
really heavy duty blanket thing, but I don't know. Apparently

1122
01:32:16.239 --> 01:32:19.720
it's really heavy according to the reviews, very heavy. So

1123
01:32:21.239 --> 01:32:23.560
I'm going to probably have to get some some kind

1124
01:32:23.600 --> 01:32:28.640
of way of attaching it to the wall, but it

1125
01:32:28.760 --> 01:32:32.760
depends on how big it is. It's got holes in

1126
01:32:32.840 --> 01:32:35.920
the sides of it, so you can put nails or

1127
01:32:36.319 --> 01:32:40.760
like things in, but I don't want it permanently on there.

1128
01:32:40.760 --> 01:32:43.399
I want to be able to lift it up, so

1129
01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:47.239
you know, I don't want to block the window the

1130
01:32:47.279 --> 01:32:57.439
whole time. I will just see when it gets it. Yeah,

1131
01:32:59.159 --> 01:33:00.760
I mean, I could have just looked at how what

1132
01:33:00.880 --> 01:33:04.079
the size was when I purchased it, but I didn't.

1133
01:33:04.680 --> 01:33:06.600
I've also got some toilet role coming as well, but

1134
01:33:06.640 --> 01:33:13.920
I think that's coming tomorrow. Yeah, it's sixty one hundred

1135
01:33:13.920 --> 01:33:16.960
and twenty packs. I think one hundred and twenty toilet

1136
01:33:17.039 --> 01:33:24.600
rolls last ages, they really do. So I'm going to go.

1137
01:33:24.840 --> 01:33:30.840
So thank you very very much for listening. And remember

1138
01:33:30.880 --> 01:33:33.119
to be kind to yourself, because you do deserve to

1139
01:33:33.159 --> 01:33:36.319
be happy and be gentle with yourself if you deserved

1140
01:33:36.479 --> 01:33:45.119
to feel safe. Take care lots of love. See video

1141
01:33:45.159 --> 01:33:47.640
always knows when I say take care lots of love.

1142
01:33:47.760 --> 01:33:51.119
He knows that. Bring it again to the end of

1143
01:33:51.199 --> 01:33:57.159
the Thing's staring at me now, Harry up, take care bye.

1144
01:34:03.359 --> 01:34:17.880
Relax in a more deep and meaningful way, Maybe in

1145
01:34:18.000 --> 01:34:23.479
a way that can not just allow you to feel

1146
01:34:24.920 --> 01:34:34.000
calmer now and throughout the time we spend together here,

1147
01:34:36.159 --> 01:34:41.800
not just relaxed at the end of the recording when

1148
01:34:41.880 --> 01:34:48.520
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

1149
01:34:48.720 --> 01:35:03.600
and peace, but also I think it would be nice

1150
01:35:03.760 --> 01:35:17.760
to have those feelings of relaxation continue.

1151
01:35:18.840 --> 01:35:30.640
For longer after the recording has ended, so that you

1152
01:35:30.760 --> 01:35:43.119
can still benefit from listening to my voice. Maybe in

1153
01:35:43.199 --> 01:35:55.800
a few hours time, perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly,

1154
01:35:58.920 --> 01:36:03.520
especially if you find like some people do and myself

1155
01:36:03.600 --> 01:36:08.680
as well, sometimes I find one particular recording that really

1156
01:36:10.399 --> 01:36:17.319
resonates with me, and I just listen to it over

1157
01:36:17.399 --> 01:36:30.079
and over again every morning, every evening. There was this

1158
01:36:30.239 --> 01:36:35.720
recording from We're going back to about nineteen ninety nine.

1159
01:36:37.439 --> 01:36:42.920
It wasn't hypnosis, but it was a guided visualizations. It

1160
01:36:43.079 --> 01:36:50.239
kind of was hypnosis, really, and I managed to find

1161
01:36:50.279 --> 01:36:54.319
it again and it still has the same effect on me.

1162
01:36:56.960 --> 01:36:58.199
And part of it was.

1163
01:37:01.880 --> 01:37:15.039
The person's voice relaxed me, just felt so peaceful, and

1164
01:37:15.119 --> 01:37:21.960
I'd look forward to listening to her in the morning

1165
01:37:22.439 --> 01:37:23.279
and in the evening.

1166
01:37:29.720 --> 01:37:38.720
And I knew before even pressing the play button that

1167
01:37:39.079 --> 01:37:43.439
since I've done that, pressed the play button. This is

1168
01:37:43.840 --> 01:37:54.840
in the days of CD players pressed the play button.

1169
01:37:58.239 --> 01:38:01.039
In fact, it might have even been a tape tape recorder.

1170
01:38:02.359 --> 01:38:10.680
I'd lie down on the bed and then even without

1171
01:38:11.279 --> 01:38:24.199
necessarily listening to her words because I had them memorized. Really,

1172
01:38:28.920 --> 01:38:34.760
it was as if my body knew exactly what to do,

1173
01:38:39.680 --> 01:39:01.359
and the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and

1174
01:39:01.640 --> 01:39:15.319
I remember my mind would slow down. Now now I

1175
01:39:15.720 --> 01:39:21.880
was listening to this recording in the early days of

1176
01:39:22.039 --> 01:39:30.359
learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made any.

1177
01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:37.439
Videos or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start doing

1178
01:39:37.479 --> 01:39:51.359
that till two thousand and six, I knew. I knew

1179
01:39:51.840 --> 01:40:04.520
how helpful I found being able to just let go,

1180
01:40:07.640 --> 01:40:12.960
to have that trust in the person that I'm listening to,

1181
01:40:20.680 --> 01:40:27.439
knowing that it's going to be just as relaxing, if

1182
01:40:28.880 --> 01:40:38.199
not more so. Each time you hear my voice, you

1183
01:40:38.319 --> 01:40:39.159
may feel the same.

1184
01:40:45.560 --> 01:40:46.680
Some people.

1185
01:40:48.960 --> 01:41:01.239
Have been listening to me for over a decade, maybe

1186
01:41:01.399 --> 01:41:06.800
not solidly, obviously not twenty four hours a day, but

1187
01:41:08.960 --> 01:41:13.800
maybe people come back. Some people maybe listen every day.

1188
01:41:25.039 --> 01:41:30.960
That's something that I do which you may not realize

1189
01:41:33.399 --> 01:41:51.960
by listening, is when I record these recordings. Now, for example,

1190
01:41:56.520 --> 01:42:02.279
I also am affected by the words.

1191
01:42:03.600 --> 01:42:15.079
That I say. So if I said to you, focus

1192
01:42:15.239 --> 01:42:24.359
on your feet, notice your feet relaxing, I will be

1193
01:42:24.600 --> 01:42:26.199
focusing on my feet.

1194
01:42:31.119 --> 01:42:48.520
I will be noticing my feet relaxing. If I said,

1195
01:42:48.680 --> 01:42:56.319
focus on your hands, and maybe notice the difference between

1196
01:42:56.399 --> 01:43:07.199
each hand, perhaps notice the air in the room, the

1197
01:43:07.359 --> 01:43:11.960
temperature of the room. On the backs of your hands,

1198
01:43:19.800 --> 01:43:23.600
you may start to notice what almost feels like a

1199
01:43:23.840 --> 01:43:31.720
very light breeze, even though there may not be any

1200
01:43:32.279 --> 01:43:37.039
type of breeze at all where you are right now.

1201
01:43:45.359 --> 01:43:55.920
And as you become aware of your hands, I'm also

1202
01:43:56.319 --> 01:44:09.640
aware of how oh relaxed my hands our feeling now

1203
01:44:24.439 --> 01:44:30.239
and when it comes to potentially drifting off to sleep,

1204
01:44:31.359 --> 01:44:43.920
which may be the reason you're listening, I also feel

1205
01:44:44.119 --> 01:44:56.680
drowsy when I make these recordings. I also notice.

1206
01:44:58.279 --> 01:44:59.279
My mind.

1207
01:45:01.039 --> 01:45:20.920
Drifting. In fact, at times I've actually fallen asleep without

1208
01:45:21.039 --> 01:45:35.439
even noticing, and then I carry on talking. It's only

1209
01:45:35.760 --> 01:45:44.399
when I listen back to do the editing I hear

1210
01:45:44.760 --> 01:45:54.600
snoring and I think, I don't remember snoring. I remember talking.

1211
01:45:57.520 --> 01:46:04.680
This snoring was a pig turn up. That's why I

1212
01:46:04.800 --> 01:46:12.880
sound like when I snore, and I get really into

1213
01:46:13.000 --> 01:46:32.319
the whole experience. I don't know how you feel. How

1214
01:46:32.439 --> 01:46:42.600
relaxed do you feel in your feet, how relaxed you

1215
01:46:42.880 --> 01:47:00.920
feel in your hands. I haven't noticed.

1216
01:47:03.159 --> 01:47:04.359
More and more.

1217
01:47:10.039 --> 01:47:22.680
That the more relaxed, deeper level of comfort you feel,

1218
01:47:26.399 --> 01:47:42.560
the easier your breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional

1219
01:47:45.720 --> 01:48:06.640
muscle relaxation. So this allows you to breathe easier without

1220
01:48:08.159 --> 01:48:28.840
necessarily focusing on your breath however, being able to notice

1221
01:48:39.520 --> 01:48:40.840
the ease.

1222
01:48:43.840 --> 01:48:44.560
In which.

1223
01:48:51.920 --> 01:49:11.800
You breathe so naturally, You breathe so very easily.

1224
01:49:12.840 --> 01:49:59.560
And smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving, when I've

1225
01:49:59.600 --> 01:50:15.399
got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize a beautiful

1226
01:50:15.600 --> 01:50:32.640
field with trees and flowers producing all that life giving oxygen.

1227
01:50:52.920 --> 01:51:08.399
It feels nice too, if nothing else, just taking some

1228
01:51:09.039 --> 01:51:41.680
time away from everything, enjoying that feeling of.

1229
01:51:45.600 --> 01:52:32.399
Peace serenity with a joyful heart. Time seems to just

1230
01:52:34.279 --> 01:53:18.239
drip by, so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful, completely

1231
01:53:24.199 --> 01:54:00.239
unattached to any thoughts whatsoever in this moment, completely three,

1232
01:54:26.680 --> 01:55:18.000
noticing that your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because

1233
01:55:18.199 --> 01:55:46.760
nothing really requires your attention, you can enjoy the physical

1234
01:55:47.119 --> 01:55:58.760
sensations of allowing the stress to rip out of your body,

1235
01:56:05.239 --> 01:56:30.720
to appear out of every part of your body being released.

1236
01:56:35.359 --> 01:56:43.000
From your brain in your mind.

1237
01:57:01.319 --> 01:57:17.680
Slowly but surely, the muscle sing legs.

1238
01:57:32.880 --> 01:58:02.479
Relax x so very deeply, rel.

1239
01:58:08.039 --> 01:58:33.399
So deeply, and the feelings, the pleasant feelings in your

1240
01:58:33.720 --> 01:59:01.479
arms and shoulders, deepening each part of your body further

1241
01:59:06.520 --> 01:59:08.199
and deeper.

1242
01:59:18.560 --> 01:59:40.479
And deeper. Noticine, the feelings in the back of your neck,

1243
02:00:03.880 --> 02:00:43.000
feelings in your wrists, muscles, in front of your body.

1244
02:00:53.399 --> 02:01:37.520
I also feeling peaceful deeply there's a sense of peace

1245
02:01:42.039 --> 02:02:21.840
spreads through your fairy core. Even when you focus on

1246
02:02:22.000 --> 02:03:21.159
your mind, your mind becomes beve and slower. Heeven deep relaxing,

1247
02:03:45.039 --> 02:04:22.880
so very slow your stomach. PA's for in your stomach.

1248
02:04:45.079 --> 02:05:19.159
Look back. Notice Notice how relaxed you'd now feel in

1249
02:05:19.319 --> 02:05:52.039
the hole of your back. Your spy from your brain

1250
02:05:52.560 --> 02:05:59.840
all the way down the middle of your back, sin

1251
02:06:00.119 --> 02:06:23.880
ending and receiving millions of messages every day, deepcomfort, increasing

1252
02:06:34.439 --> 02:07:40.760
deeply relaxed, your knees, spreading these signals down a spine

1253
02:07:40.920 --> 02:07:41.760
or cord.

1254
02:07:45.800 --> 02:08:04.720
Into air, every part of your body, your shins and

1255
02:08:04.840 --> 02:08:56.399
your half muscles. We're outbows. Feelings of peace and tranquility

1256
02:09:00.359 --> 02:09:14.319
spreading through your body, tips of your toes, to your eyes,

1257
02:09:18.760 --> 02:09:25.760
your fingers, all the way to your lower back.

1258
02:09:27.800 --> 02:10:40.680
M lettinger rediatinker, peace to drift in mind, just wandering away,

So fair?

1263
02:15:00.039 --> 02:16:38.639
Hey, hey, yes, let him go.

1264
02:16:56.719 --> 02:17:04.280
Maybe we can just focus on the different parts of

1265
02:17:04.440 --> 02:18:12.319
your body, just to notice you forehead and your eyes mutual,

1266
02:18:17.920 --> 02:18:58.559
so loose, noticing the sense of complete freedom, absolute freedom.

1267
02:19:44.719 --> 02:19:57.559
Yes, y.

1268
02:20:11.120 --> 02:20:11.959
Peace for.

1269
02:20:14.040 --> 02:20:55.200
Energy, peace to breathe so much easier.

1270
02:21:36.959 --> 02:22:09.520
Yes, you may have you may not have noticed your

1271
02:22:09.760 --> 02:23:11.920
mind drifting peaceful, moveingly, even more deeply in the direction

1272
02:23:12.159 --> 02:24:47.879
of total blissful pace, blissful pace, terrefting out to pace.

1273
02:25:12.559 --> 02:26:09.479
Come so calm, let him go, peace with mind relaxed

1274
02:26:13.760 --> 02:27:12.920
foury c relax c rexed. Your body feels almost invisible,

1275
02:27:28.120 --> 02:28:05.479
so very relaxed. I'm peaceful, so pay so h h

1276
02:28:12.600 --> 02:28:52.479
likes fair. And you could start to notice that you

1277
02:28:54.000 --> 02:29:03.200
are feeling more relaxed, even though you are not purposely

1278
02:29:04.639 --> 02:29:13.600
focused your mind upon that sense of physical comfort that

1279
02:29:13.799 --> 02:29:20.799
is growing within you throughout your body, and your mind

1280
02:29:22.920 --> 02:29:31.319
starts to slow down. And that could be almost in

1281
02:29:32.200 --> 02:29:40.799
recognition of I guess my speech not being particularly fast,

1282
02:29:47.360 --> 02:29:57.719
and things just generally feel calmer. Just by listening to

1283
02:29:57.879 --> 02:30:05.120
my voice, you give yourself an opportunity.

1284
02:30:06.040 --> 02:30:11.680
To take a break from the day, take a break

1285
02:30:11.879 --> 02:30:19.559
from your life as it is, and to give yourself

1286
02:30:19.639 --> 02:30:27.479
a rest, giving yourself permission to take some time off

1287
02:30:29.799 --> 02:30:35.120
and to allow your body to relax and allow your

1288
02:30:35.319 --> 02:30:45.920
mind to slow down, which in turn releases the tension

1289
02:30:47.360 --> 02:30:56.079
and he stresses that you had in your body. It's

1290
02:30:56.120 --> 02:31:00.680
almost as if the parts of your body just open up,

1291
02:31:02.040 --> 02:31:13.639
allowing the negativity out and at the same time replacing

1292
02:31:14.520 --> 02:31:24.040
that negativity with positive heathing energy, which then fills your

1293
02:31:24.079 --> 02:31:35.879
body up and your mind to also starts to appreciate

1294
02:31:36.799 --> 02:31:55.159
those feelings of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing,

1295
02:31:58.360 --> 02:32:06.920
an energy that spreads through your body like a wave

1296
02:32:09.239 --> 02:32:21.360
of comfort, and all this comes and just allowing yourself

1297
02:32:24.200 --> 02:32:29.399
a few minutes, maybe half an hour, however long you

1298
02:32:29.520 --> 02:32:33.639
want it to be, to just rest.

1299
02:32:38.760 --> 02:32:47.559
And allow your mind and your body to almost reset

1300
02:32:48.280 --> 02:33:06.920
itself to the settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which

1301
02:33:07.000 --> 02:33:20.159
allows more room for feelings of pleasure and happiness to

1302
02:33:20.440 --> 02:33:29.879
move around your body and into your mind, almost as

1303
02:33:29.920 --> 02:33:39.040
if your mind and your body are sinking together, almost

1304
02:33:39.399 --> 02:33:48.280
mirroring each other, with that growing positivity and calmness.

1305
02:33:53.360 --> 02:34:00.559
And it feels nice. It really does feel nice to

1306
02:34:00.760 --> 02:34:06.440
know that you are the one that has allowed yourself

1307
02:34:09.920 --> 02:34:19.280
to feel more comfort and to experience.

1308
02:34:21.000 --> 02:34:22.120
More of this.

1309
02:34:23.920 --> 02:34:39.079
Deep relaxation spreading throughout your body. And as I focus

1310
02:34:40.639 --> 02:34:46.399
on each part of your body, you can notice that

1311
02:34:46.639 --> 02:35:01.159
that part becomes even more relaxed just by focusing on it.

1312
02:35:03.680 --> 02:35:13.360
It becomes even more calm and comfortable just by focusing.

1313
02:35:17.399 --> 02:35:23.159
And as I move down your body, starting at your head,

1314
02:35:25.879 --> 02:35:32.559
the parts that you've already focused on will continue to

1315
02:35:32.760 --> 02:35:40.360
relax deeply, and those parts that we've not yet focused

1316
02:35:40.440 --> 02:35:53.760
on or just automatically release any remaining tension in anticipation

1317
02:35:54.200 --> 02:36:07.360
of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm gonna

1318
02:36:07.440 --> 02:36:14.559
start by focusing on your forehead. Just being aware of

1319
02:36:14.840 --> 02:36:24.920
the feelings of your forehead and any background sounds like

1320
02:36:25.159 --> 02:36:30.239
mister Herbert the pigeon can just allow you to feel

1321
02:36:30.360 --> 02:36:40.360
even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment. This

1322
02:36:40.520 --> 02:36:45.639
isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

1323
02:36:49.120 --> 02:36:55.159
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

1324
02:36:55.680 --> 02:37:06.159
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

1325
02:37:06.440 --> 02:37:14.200
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

1326
02:37:16.520 --> 02:37:21.000
only on my voice and that part of your body.

1327
02:37:26.200 --> 02:37:34.479
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

1328
02:37:36.959 --> 02:37:46.639
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

1329
02:37:46.680 --> 02:37:53.120
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

1330
02:37:53.399 --> 02:38:07.799
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

1331
02:38:08.280 --> 02:38:14.920
your tongue, your teeth, and your gums, the whole of

1332
02:38:15.079 --> 02:38:29.879
your mouth relaxing, calm and loose, as you focus now

1333
02:38:30.680 --> 02:38:37.559
on your jaw, not just the part of your jaw

1334
02:38:37.680 --> 02:38:42.360
near your mouth, your chin, but all the way up

1335
02:38:43.079 --> 02:38:49.159
the size of your face to your ears, the hole

1336
02:38:49.840 --> 02:39:16.840
of your jaw feeding more, relaxed and calm. Focusing on

1337
02:39:17.040 --> 02:39:22.440
your neck, the front of your neck and your throat

1338
02:39:24.680 --> 02:39:35.399
relaxing and loose and calm. The side of your neck,

1339
02:39:37.479 --> 02:39:46.280
the right and left side of your neck relaxtant, loose

1340
02:39:50.360 --> 02:40:03.360
and calm. And now the back of your neck. Focus

1341
02:40:03.559 --> 02:40:12.920
in on the back of your neck, letting go of

1342
02:40:13.120 --> 02:40:20.000
any tension that may have been there before, and enjoying

1343
02:40:20.360 --> 02:40:33.239
that sense of increasing comfort and release that you can

1344
02:40:33.440 --> 02:40:44.520
experience in the back of your neck. Moving down your

1345
02:40:44.639 --> 02:40:48.760
back and moving either.

1346
02:40:48.680 --> 02:40:52.760
Side of your spine right from the top of your

1347
02:40:52.879 --> 02:40:58.719
back all the way down to the bottom of your back,

1348
02:41:04.799 --> 02:41:16.079
down to your lower back. And as you move up

1349
02:41:16.159 --> 02:41:24.920
and down your spine, you can feel the muscles either

1350
02:41:25.120 --> 02:41:38.639
side of your spine relaxing even more. And as those

1351
02:41:38.799 --> 02:41:47.840
muscles relax, that sense of comfort starts to spread outwards

1352
02:41:49.799 --> 02:41:51.280
from your spine.

1353
02:41:53.319 --> 02:42:00.440
Into both sides of your back, the top of your back,

1354
02:42:01.280 --> 02:42:07.520
the middle, and your lower back. And as you scan

1355
02:42:09.239 --> 02:42:17.079
gently and slowly up and down your back, there's the

1356
02:42:17.200 --> 02:42:23.040
muscles in the top of your back relax and become looser.

1357
02:42:27.399 --> 02:42:33.399
The muscles in the middle of your back also seem

1358
02:42:33.520 --> 02:42:43.040
to just almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting,

1359
02:42:48.799 --> 02:42:54.799
and in your lower back it seems to be an

1360
02:42:54.840 --> 02:43:09.040
extra special feeling of comfort. This spreads into your hips.

1361
02:43:11.319 --> 02:43:19.159
Sit down, your lower back, into your hips, into the

1362
02:43:19.360 --> 02:43:28.120
area where your cocksicks are, and into your buttocks, and

1363
02:43:28.200 --> 02:43:37.399
all those muscles that spread from your lower back into

1364
02:43:37.479 --> 02:43:50.959
your hip area start to melt, start to really let go.

1365
02:43:57.479 --> 02:44:02.479
I don't even nowhere out to focus on your shoulders.

1366
02:44:04.239 --> 02:44:11.239
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

1367
02:44:14.319 --> 02:44:29.920
continue to relax so calmly, and as you focus on

1368
02:44:30.079 --> 02:44:43.000
your shoulders, you may notice that they're already feeding, really loose,

1369
02:44:48.159 --> 02:45:05.600
already feeding calm and feeling.

1370
02:45:09.799 --> 02:45:18.120
Those muscles then move from your neck into your shoulders

1371
02:45:24.680 --> 02:45:54.079
feel so soft and gentle, so smooth and calm, and

1372
02:45:54.280 --> 02:46:07.120
the feeling in your shoulders seems to spread deep into

1373
02:46:07.239 --> 02:46:17.639
your shoulders, that sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply

1374
02:46:18.040 --> 02:46:25.440
into your muscles, but also relaxing.

1375
02:46:27.559 --> 02:46:37.440
The bones and moving all away to underneath your arms,

1376
02:46:40.280 --> 02:46:46.200
relaxing that whole area between the tops of your shoulders

1377
02:46:47.559 --> 02:47:00.079
and underneath your arms. He then you just so.

1378
02:47:01.920 --> 02:47:13.399
Relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders, which sends that.

1379
02:47:15.639 --> 02:47:17.680
Deep healing.

1380
02:47:20.639 --> 02:47:35.680
Message into your arms. And you may feel.

1381
02:47:37.159 --> 02:47:42.200
Almost as if your arms are not even there, because

1382
02:47:42.319 --> 02:48:25.959
they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so so calm, so poose,

1383
02:48:33.399 --> 02:48:43.479
not feeling spreading all the way down your arms to

1384
02:48:43.600 --> 02:49:12.479
your elbows, including your elbows circumforts spreads or away into

1385
02:49:12.879 --> 02:49:31.399
rests of forearments and your rests so heavy, yet at

1386
02:49:31.600 --> 02:50:15.559
the same time slight and gentle, fred s now on

1387
02:50:18.280 --> 02:50:51.000
your hands, my hands, so peaceful.

1388
02:50:52.079 --> 02:50:53.159
In your hands.

1389
02:51:11.719 --> 02:51:12.840
There's the sense of.

1390
02:51:16.319 --> 02:51:17.719
Real peace.

1391
02:51:29.520 --> 02:51:43.280
It just seems to I feel so familiar, your hands

1392
02:51:43.639 --> 02:52:51.479

1393
02:53:20.639 --> 02:53:54.079

go h everything.

1401
03:01:07.559 --> 03:01:13.559
So I'm gonna start counting down now from twenty down

1402
03:01:13.639 --> 03:01:21.719
to one. You can imagine in a way it's like

1403
03:01:22.559 --> 03:01:29.000
just walking down some steps and each step or twenty steps,

1404
03:01:29.079 --> 03:01:38.159
and each step represents a level of comfort. Each step

1405
03:01:38.719 --> 03:01:43.479
represents a deepening.

1406
03:01:44.920 --> 03:01:55.239
Of that comfort, and the furvies you walk down those

1407
03:01:55.440 --> 03:02:07.200
steps that are deeper and more relaxed, you feel so

1408
03:02:07.879 --> 03:02:09.959
starting with number twenty.

1409
03:02:21.159 --> 03:04:42.879
Twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, sixteen.

1410
03:05:57.559 --> 03:12:04.079
Three four four see too well F eight four nine

1411
03:13:06.360 --> 03:14:07.280
eight seven.

1412
03:15:00.200 --> 03:15:29.600
H h.

1413
03:15:43.920 --> 03:16:59.840
Six five.

1414
03:17:16.399 --> 03:22:53.639
Four four one No. As you focus on your eyes,

1415
03:23:03.239 --> 03:23:13.360
We're gonna count down from ten down to one. Focus

1416
03:23:13.520 --> 03:23:22.479
in just on your eyes, your eyelids, the muscles around

1417
03:23:22.600 --> 03:23:34.040
your eyes, your eye wolves themselves, our whole area that

1418
03:23:34.280 --> 03:23:48.360
makes up your eye. And as we count down from

1419
03:23:48.520 --> 03:23:56.520
ten down to one, whilst focus in on your eyes.

1420
03:24:02.840 --> 03:24:13.719
You'll become twice is relaxed with each number counting down,

1421
03:24:17.840 --> 03:24:24.799
and you may find the all you want to do

1422
03:24:25.319 --> 03:24:33.959
is just to drift off to sleep. And if that's

1423
03:24:34.239 --> 03:24:47.079
what you want, then just allow yourself to do that. Now,

1424
03:24:50.040 --> 03:24:56.399
focusing on your eyes, I'm going to begin counting down

1425
03:24:57.959 --> 03:25:40.200
from ten down to one right now. Two nine.

1426
03:26:14.159 --> 03:29:12.520
Eight seven hut five.

1427
03:30:23.040 --> 03:34:27.280
Four three two one. So counted down from ten to

1428
03:34:27.399 --> 03:34:53.959
one ten nine eight seven six five four three two one.

1429
03:35:01.000 --> 03:35:03.879
And maybe that was a bit too quick in order

1430
03:35:03.959 --> 03:35:07.879
to relax. Maybe it's a bit too fast for you

1431
03:35:08.200 --> 03:35:17.920
to notice the calming of your body, maybe even a

1432
03:35:17.959 --> 03:35:21.479
little bit of pressure there. Like you'll count it down

1433
03:35:21.600 --> 03:35:22.520
from ten to one.

1434
03:35:22.639 --> 03:35:25.920
What do you expect me to do? Man? Expect me

1435
03:35:26.000 --> 03:35:30.040
to stick go with floppy just because you're counting down.

1436
03:35:35.600 --> 03:35:38.920
If you try it again, but this time, I go

1437
03:35:39.120 --> 03:35:46.440
this lower. This time, as you focus on the whole

1438
03:35:46.559 --> 03:35:52.799
of your body before we focus on your legs, just

1439
03:35:53.040 --> 03:36:03.040
notice how your body does start to feel more relaxed

1440
03:36:07.799 --> 03:36:27.440
with every number that I count down ten nine eight

1441
03:36:32.799 --> 03:37:57.680
seven six five four three two one. I just notice how.

1442
03:38:00.120 --> 03:38:02.399
You feel generally, how your body feels.

1443
03:38:09.079 --> 03:38:17.360
It's not necessarily even about counting down from ten to one.

1444
03:38:20.360 --> 03:38:33.760
It's that space that you have, that space between being

1445
03:38:37.360 --> 03:38:48.920
active physically or mentally to just sitting or lying down,

1446
03:38:49.600 --> 03:38:54.280
just being there, not doing anything, not saying anything, not

1447
03:38:55.200 --> 03:39:01.479
needing to think about anything. It opens up a space,

1448
03:39:02.479 --> 03:39:11.600
you know, a bit of a space, a gap. And

1449
03:39:11.719 --> 03:39:16.319
the more I came down from ten to one, the

1450
03:39:16.360 --> 03:39:24.360
bigger that gap becomes. So there's that gap of calmness,

1451
03:39:25.760 --> 03:39:41.440
of comfort, relaxation. It's a nice feeling, and it moves

1452
03:39:43.000 --> 03:39:52.920
those stresses or discomforts physically or emotionally, moves them away.

1453
03:40:00.000 --> 03:40:12.440
Tells you to just slow down. Someone to count again

1454
03:40:12.520 --> 03:40:18.719
from ten down to one, and notice that gap widening,

1455
03:40:20.920 --> 03:40:25.319
the gap. And as it widens, it's almost like the

1456
03:40:27.040 --> 03:40:44.559
stress and attention falls into the gap and gives you

1457
03:40:44.719 --> 03:41:51.600
that distance, that space. Now ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

1458
03:42:09.920 --> 03:43:03.520
three two one. And how did your body feel now?

1459
03:43:16.200 --> 03:43:28.159
Can you notice that? Do you feeling calmer? Do you

1460
03:43:28.440 --> 03:43:56.840
feeling more relaxed? As we now focus on your legs,

1461
03:43:58.559 --> 03:44:19.040
just your legs, We're just gonna start with focusing on

1462
03:44:19.479 --> 03:44:38.639
your thighs. Of course, it's not the most exciting thing

1463
03:44:38.760 --> 03:44:45.319
to be doing, because I'm sure like most of your

1464
03:44:45.360 --> 03:44:57.799
body is not not going on right now, Just focusing

1465
03:44:58.440 --> 03:45:04.040
on the whole of your thighs, the tops of your thighs,

1466
03:45:04.840 --> 03:45:10.159
the sides of your thighs, the bottoms of your thighs,

1467
03:45:11.680 --> 03:45:17.120
your outer thighs, and your inner thighs. Basically the whole

1468
03:45:17.200 --> 03:45:24.680
of your thigh that leads into your hip and it

1469
03:45:24.840 --> 03:45:35.520
goes down to your knee joints. Now, this is a

1470
03:45:35.600 --> 03:45:44.040
big area. It's a very heavy area. It's very strong,

1471
03:45:45.280 --> 03:45:50.280
probably the strongest muscles in your body or in your thighs.

1472
03:46:00.440 --> 03:46:08.159
But I don't think we perhaps give enough attention to

1473
03:46:08.399 --> 03:46:22.079
our thighs. Perhaps we don't acknowledge how important our thighs

1474
03:46:22.360 --> 03:46:42.120
are to our lives, how much they actually do for

1475
03:46:42.280 --> 03:46:56.000
us all through our lives. And it may seem to

1476
03:46:56.120 --> 03:47:01.280
sound really weird, but I think that all of our

1477
03:47:01.360 --> 03:47:12.200
body parts, especially our thighs, need some TLC, a bit

1478
03:47:12.239 --> 03:47:29.000
of love shown, a bit of acknowledgement, thank you, gratitude

1479
03:47:32.000 --> 03:47:40.799
for what our thighs do for us. And I know

1480
03:47:40.959 --> 03:47:47.040
this may sound a bit strange. Maybe you think, why

1481
03:47:47.079 --> 03:47:49.799
am I surely how I should be able in the

1482
03:47:49.879 --> 03:47:58.399
garden hugging a tree or something. Well, it's hard to

1483
03:47:58.479 --> 03:48:01.680
set a microphone up on a tree. That's why I'm

1484
03:48:01.719 --> 03:48:04.559
doing this indoors. Otherwise I would be outside hugging a tree.

1485
03:48:05.760 --> 03:48:14.520
Now I can't see the television from the tree. If

1486
03:48:14.559 --> 03:48:19.959
you move down to your knees gain such an important part.

1487
03:48:24.239 --> 03:48:29.319
And I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here,

1488
03:48:31.799 --> 03:48:36.920
I don't necessarily appreciate all that my knees do for

1489
03:48:37.040 --> 03:48:43.520
me until I have a problem with my knee. It's occasionally,

1490
03:48:43.559 --> 03:48:48.559
if I ever maybe i'll pash it, or it's aching

1491
03:48:48.719 --> 03:48:55.120
for some reason. It's then that I realize how much

1492
03:48:55.239 --> 03:48:58.879
it does. You know, the benefit of being able to

1493
03:48:59.760 --> 03:49:09.040
use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort is

1494
03:49:09.840 --> 03:49:18.600
a beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed.

1495
03:49:19.719 --> 03:49:26.719
You know that's comfort. But as you focus on your knees,

1496
03:49:28.879 --> 03:49:34.520
regardless of how your knees feel, you can have that

1497
03:49:34.799 --> 03:49:40.959
sense of gratitude and love to your knees for all

1498
03:49:41.079 --> 03:49:53.280
that they do for you. When you can still have

1499
03:49:53.479 --> 03:49:57.600
that attention on your thighs and maybe notice how your

1500
03:49:57.719 --> 03:50:09.600
thighs feel, maybe you've noticed that they are relaxing more

1501
03:50:11.360 --> 03:50:23.000
deeply as you focus now on the bottoms of your legs,

1502
03:50:23.479 --> 03:50:29.239
your shins, and your calf muscles, the bones between your

1503
03:50:30.200 --> 03:50:35.840
knees and your feet incorporate, and of course your ankles

1504
03:50:38.200 --> 03:50:49.319
so important. Anyone that's had even like the slightest sprain

1505
03:50:49.440 --> 03:50:56.360
of an ankle knows how how much we take our

1506
03:50:56.600 --> 03:51:05.159
ankles for granted. And it's kind of strange in a

1507
03:51:05.200 --> 03:51:10.799
way when you think that. You know, logically, our wrists

1508
03:51:10.959 --> 03:51:13.799
are a lot thinner than the rest of our arms,

1509
03:51:14.920 --> 03:51:18.440
which is okay, it doesn't I can't see any problem

1510
03:51:18.479 --> 03:51:23.360
with that because we're just picking stuff up. But our

1511
03:51:23.440 --> 03:51:29.280
ankles so much thinner than the rest of our legs,

1512
03:51:35.719 --> 03:51:40.120
and from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't

1513
03:51:40.159 --> 03:51:46.159
really make sense that all this weight would ultimately be

1514
03:51:47.280 --> 03:51:57.319
resting on your ankles then leading to your feet, that

1515
03:51:57.879 --> 03:52:06.840
thin area, thin bone. Yeah, it does so much great work.

1516
03:52:09.000 --> 03:52:18.520
Supports us, supports our body for a lifetime, helps us

1517
03:52:19.200 --> 03:52:28.559
to balance, It helps you to get around and be mobile.

1518
03:52:34.879 --> 03:52:42.719
And there's the calf muscles. Of course, when I was younger,

1519
03:52:43.079 --> 03:52:46.399
I couldn't see the point in calf muscles didn't seem

1520
03:52:46.440 --> 03:52:51.520
to do anything. Okay, if I walked around on tiptoes,

1521
03:52:52.319 --> 03:52:56.159
then my calf muscles get some work, but of course

1522
03:52:56.239 --> 03:53:00.360
that's not true. The calf muscles are being used whenever

1523
03:53:00.440 --> 03:53:12.360
we use our legs, and your shins there to protect

1524
03:53:14.360 --> 03:53:23.000
your lower legs, shaped in a way almost as a

1525
03:53:23.040 --> 03:53:35.319
protector for the bone, leading of course to your ankles

1526
03:53:38.719 --> 03:53:45.840
and your feet. We're not going to focus on your feet.

1527
03:53:45.920 --> 03:53:49.639
We're just going to focus on the legs. And I

1528
03:53:49.760 --> 03:53:54.639
realize that now that I've mentioned your feet, you've probably

1529
03:53:55.680 --> 03:53:59.360
focusing on them anyway, So maybe I should focus on

1530
03:53:59.440 --> 03:54:05.479
your feet little bit. You can have them in your

1531
03:54:05.520 --> 03:54:11.879
awareness the same as you have your thighs in your awareness.

1532
03:54:12.760 --> 03:54:16.639
Even though we haven't been focusing on your thighs a

1533
03:54:16.799 --> 03:54:27.840
few minutes, let me focusing on your ankles. There's still

1534
03:54:27.920 --> 03:54:43.000
that sensation of comfort in your thighs, and this that

1535
03:54:43.479 --> 03:54:53.520
movement of energy because the thighs hold lots of different sensations.

1536
03:54:54.959 --> 03:55:00.040
Of course, there's the muscles, the big straw muscles we

1537
03:55:00.200 --> 03:55:13.639
have in our thighs, but the skin on the outside

1538
03:55:13.719 --> 03:55:18.559
of the thighs, as in the outside of all of

1539
03:55:18.639 --> 03:55:27.319
our body, can be very sensitive, sensitive to the touch,

1540
03:55:30.120 --> 03:55:43.440
sensitive to temperature, and inside your thighs the bones, there's

1541
03:55:44.479 --> 03:55:49.600
the muscle. There's the blood, vessels, the ar trees, all

1542
03:55:49.760 --> 03:55:59.200
this stuff that's inside your thighs. I guess sometimes it'd

1543
03:55:59.239 --> 03:56:03.520
be nice if you actually put your fingers inside your

1544
03:56:03.600 --> 03:56:09.799
thighs and a message, so you can message on the outside,

1545
03:56:10.040 --> 03:56:12.959
of course, but to be able to get deep into

1546
03:56:13.040 --> 03:56:17.840
the muscles and to be able to just massage inside

1547
03:56:17.920 --> 03:56:24.920
your thighs, message in the bones of your leg massage

1548
03:56:25.000 --> 03:56:34.239
in or the veins and just gently healing your thighs,

1549
03:56:38.159 --> 03:56:43.399
and you could move down message and inside your knees,

1550
03:56:44.879 --> 03:56:49.760
just a message in those bones, but with healing fingertips

1551
03:56:51.200 --> 03:56:57.520
spreading that healing energy deep into the choints of your knees.

1552
03:57:02.920 --> 03:57:06.639
Of course, there's the back of your your knee and

1553
03:57:06.760 --> 03:57:12.760
the inside crease where your knee is. It's a very

1554
03:57:12.959 --> 03:57:18.840
sensitive area. Very it feels very nice when you stroke it.

1555
03:57:20.239 --> 03:57:23.600
That might be because it's an area that's not really

1556
03:57:23.799 --> 03:57:30.280
touched very often. It's almost like a hidden part, that

1557
03:57:30.600 --> 03:57:37.319
crease in your legs. It's almost it's like a part

1558
03:57:37.479 --> 03:57:42.319
that has a sensitivity, which is a little bit different.

1559
03:57:50.159 --> 03:58:02.159
Of course, it's protected by your legs. Imagine putting your

1560
03:58:02.280 --> 03:58:11.879
fingers into that crease in your legs that fold in

1561
03:58:11.959 --> 03:58:15.920
between your legs. You can just message with your fingertips.

1562
03:58:17.120 --> 03:58:23.920
Imagine your fingertips going inside massage in the muscle tissue.

1563
03:58:28.520 --> 03:58:32.760
You can of course field the bones of your knees

1564
03:58:34.280 --> 03:58:44.719
heading through your fingertips, and then as you go down

1565
03:58:47.600 --> 03:58:50.360
to your calf muscles. And that's the part I'd like

1566
03:58:50.479 --> 03:58:55.159
to be able to really put my fingertips deep inside

1567
03:58:55.920 --> 03:59:03.840
my calf muscles, massage in ev very single tissue of

1568
03:59:04.040 --> 03:59:15.360
that muscle, healing every part. And then doing the same

1569
03:59:15.520 --> 03:59:25.399
for my shins, massage in gently stroking the bones, gently

1570
03:59:25.639 --> 03:59:31.200
stroking them, healing in a loving way, because they deserve

1571
03:59:31.319 --> 03:59:37.159
to be treated as the precious bones that they are.

1572
03:59:38.520 --> 03:59:41.760
Because our legs are so precious as in all the

1573
03:59:41.840 --> 03:59:47.200
other parts of our body, the more precious of any

1574
03:59:47.360 --> 04:00:02.639
ChIL on the planet. Well mean, start to think about

1575
04:00:06.079 --> 04:00:14.879
your legs in this way. It can change your perspective.

1576
04:00:17.600 --> 04:00:23.360
It might sound a bit a bit silly to start

1577
04:00:23.440 --> 04:00:30.200
with the idea of having love for your legs, showing

1578
04:00:30.280 --> 04:00:38.479
appreciation for your thighs, wanting to be able to put

1579
04:00:38.559 --> 04:00:46.399
your hands in your thighs, the message the muscles and

1580
04:00:46.479 --> 04:00:51.280
the bones, and to get your fingers deep in there.

1581
04:00:52.520 --> 04:01:01.239
Releasing all tension, just to show how much you care

1582
04:01:04.520 --> 04:01:09.680
about your legs, how much you care for what your

1583
04:01:09.760 --> 04:01:19.440
legs do for you regularly, your knees, your calves, your ankles,

1584
04:01:23.719 --> 04:01:31.360
the strength of your ankles considering how thin they are

1585
04:01:31.600 --> 04:01:39.319
compared to the rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah,

1586
04:01:39.399 --> 04:01:51.479
they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things. Your ankles

1587
04:01:51.840 --> 04:02:00.920
are truly a gift because of what they do for you,

1588
04:02:06.440 --> 04:02:13.360
supporting all that weight, regardless of how what weight you are,

1589
04:02:14.559 --> 04:02:19.319
even if you only ate stone, there's still a lot

1590
04:02:19.399 --> 04:02:26.040
of weight for these little ankles. Now, I'm a lot

1591
04:02:26.280 --> 04:02:36.200
heavier than eat stone double down, Yet my ankles support

1592
04:02:36.280 --> 04:02:43.680
my body all the time. Whether they do give off

1593
04:02:43.680 --> 04:02:49.239
a sigh of relief when I sit down, as fact,

1594
04:02:49.280 --> 04:02:58.319
my whole legs do. My feet feet also go my

1595
04:02:58.440 --> 04:03:26.000
toast clap. I'm so happy. Your legs really are amazing.

1596
04:03:28.600 --> 04:03:32.239
I don't know, but talking about talking about your legs

1597
04:03:32.399 --> 04:03:39.000
is probably possibly among the most most boring things you've

1598
04:03:39.040 --> 04:03:48.040
ever heard anyone say. Possibly you're boring or not. Everything

1599
04:03:48.120 --> 04:04:03.559
I said is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs

1600
04:04:03.719 --> 04:04:23.239
deserve not just respect, they deserve to relax deeply they

1601
04:04:23.399 --> 04:04:28.719
deserve to take some time out of the day to

1602
04:04:28.920 --> 04:04:49.760
just let go completely. The legs.

1603
04:04:54.879 --> 04:04:57.399
Really can relax.

1604
04:05:05.040 --> 04:05:09.159
And because the legs are so such a most, you know,

1605
04:05:09.399 --> 04:05:15.319
very important part of your body, and your relax your legs,

1606
04:05:15.440 --> 04:05:22.639
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1607
04:05:26.399 --> 04:05:37.239
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1608
04:05:38.639 --> 04:05:45.159
My hips feel really loose, and also my.

1609
04:05:45.239 --> 04:05:46.200
Ler back as well.

1610
04:05:48.200 --> 04:05:53.959
My lower back really feels it feels stretched, even though

1611
04:05:53.959 --> 04:05:57.600
I'm just sitting in a chair and there's no stretching

1612
04:06:00.319 --> 04:06:03.479
as far as I'm aware that I'm doing. It's almost

1613
04:06:03.520 --> 04:06:07.319
as if the muscles are just relaxed so much that

1614
04:06:07.440 --> 04:06:14.520
there is a natural stretch as the tension has reduced

1615
04:06:15.920 --> 04:06:34.520
a lot. And I'm now going to count down from

1616
04:06:35.159 --> 04:06:44.239
ten down to one, and you can continue to feel

1617
04:06:46.000 --> 04:07:23.040
wonderfully relaxed. Ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four three two.

1618
04:07:27.159 --> 04:07:34.120
What relax?

1619
04:07:42.000 --> 04:07:45.840
So I'm just going to count down from five down

1620
04:07:45.879 --> 04:07:50.319
to one, and as a countdown, if you just focus

1621
04:07:50.440 --> 04:07:58.360
on the numbers, just the numbers counting down, and notice

1622
04:07:59.280 --> 04:08:07.280
how you feel in this moment as you hear the

1623
04:08:07.399 --> 04:08:15.600
numbers counting down, knowing that those numbers counting down represents

1624
04:08:16.479 --> 04:08:25.479
you feeling calmer, not just in your body, but also

1625
04:08:27.799 --> 04:08:34.399
relaxing your mind. I just notice how you feel. There's

1626
04:08:34.520 --> 04:08:40.280
nothing to do, there's nothing to say, there's nothing to

1627
04:08:40.399 --> 04:09:32.799
think about, starting with number five four three two one. Now,

1628
04:09:32.879 --> 04:09:45.399
as you notice the gradual letting go the tension in

1629
04:09:45.520 --> 04:09:52.680
your body, you may also begin to notice and be

1630
04:09:52.879 --> 04:10:01.639
aware of how your mind is starting to you slow down.

1631
04:10:04.159 --> 04:10:10.479
This is just a natural thing that happens. It's not

1632
04:10:10.719 --> 04:10:15.879
really a special procedure. It's just natural because is your

1633
04:10:17.200 --> 04:10:23.200
body relaxes, your mind also starts to relax. And the

1634
04:10:23.319 --> 04:10:26.920
more your mind relaxes, the more your body relaxes. It's

1635
04:10:27.079 --> 04:10:39.159
just a continuous circle of relaxation. And is that calmness

1636
04:10:39.360 --> 04:10:46.559
that comes from relative quietness. You know, even even if

1637
04:10:46.600 --> 04:10:53.399
there's background sounds, either your side or mine, it's still

1638
04:10:53.920 --> 04:10:59.159
going to be quite calm. You know, you haven't got

1639
04:10:59.239 --> 04:11:04.319
the television on, there's no music in the background, unless

1640
04:11:04.399 --> 04:11:11.840
you're listening to the recorded with music. Of course, you're

1641
04:11:12.000 --> 04:11:14.120
very likely not going to be sitting in a room

1642
04:11:14.200 --> 04:11:18.760
with other people. Of course you might be, but generally

1643
04:11:18.959 --> 04:11:22.040
it's more ideal if you can do this on your own,

1644
04:11:23.760 --> 04:11:33.840
so no distractions, and when you stop thinking about stuff.

1645
04:11:40.399 --> 04:11:50.680
Relaxation automatically rises a sense of comfort, starts to grow,

1646
04:11:55.200 --> 04:12:01.879
and without trying to build it up into something fantastical,

1647
04:12:05.719 --> 04:12:14.399
something magical, this is just a natural process, something that's

1648
04:12:15.600 --> 04:12:25.319
easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost the sense of

1649
04:12:25.559 --> 04:12:32.840
relaxing completely happens really when you put no effort into it.

1650
04:12:33.840 --> 04:12:39.559
It's not something that you can really force. It's something

1651
04:12:39.719 --> 04:12:50.440
that happens naturally. And part of the process of this

1652
04:12:50.760 --> 04:13:02.680
recording and others is simply two allow you to take

1653
04:13:02.760 --> 04:13:17.600
advantage of this space, this time, to just let go,

1654
04:13:20.760 --> 04:13:28.959
to just be here, to be in tune with how

1655
04:13:29.079 --> 04:13:42.440
you feel, yet with the intention of wanting to relax

1656
04:13:42.600 --> 04:13:53.920
deeply and maybe even to fall asleep, depending on what

1657
04:13:54.120 --> 04:14:00.280
it is that you wish for yourself in this moment.

1658
04:14:07.239 --> 04:14:16.600
As we know, relaxing is the majority of the process

1659
04:14:16.719 --> 04:14:21.879
of falling asleep. The actual falling asleep part is the

1660
04:14:22.040 --> 04:14:29.840
tiny bit at the end. The deeper relaxed you become,

1661
04:14:33.799 --> 04:14:51.440
the easier you find yourself drifting. But you can also

1662
04:14:51.639 --> 04:15:01.680
if you choose stay focused on my voice and really

1663
04:15:02.159 --> 04:15:31.879
enjoy the process gradually relaxing each muscle in your body

1664
04:15:36.959 --> 04:16:06.079
effortlessly and just observing the sensation of letting go completely.

1665
04:16:12.120 --> 04:16:16.120
This time, I'm going to count from six down to one,

1666
04:16:20.959 --> 04:16:30.159
and you can notice your mind calming down more with

1667
04:16:30.559 --> 04:16:44.239
each number that you hear me say naturally, feeling calm

1668
04:16:44.760 --> 04:19:22.719
and slow and be peaceful, six, five, four, three, what

1669
04:19:44.040 --> 04:19:57.360
being aware? How you'd mind to slow right down, sinking

1670
04:20:00.360 --> 04:20:20.280
please into relaxation. And as you focus on your mind,

1671
04:20:20.600 --> 04:20:30.520
you may notice that there are some thoughts still there,

1672
04:20:33.120 --> 04:20:42.680
maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some reason perhaps need

1673
04:20:42.760 --> 04:20:43.360
your attention.

1674
04:20:50.280 --> 04:20:51.639
That's what you can do is.

1675
04:20:57.200 --> 04:21:09.680
Send love to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love.

1676
04:21:11.399 --> 04:21:15.639
I all petals from a flower. Just sprinkle over them,

1677
04:21:17.120 --> 04:21:24.239
petals filled with love towards those thoughts, to let those

1678
04:21:24.479 --> 04:21:30.879
thoughts know that you're not abandon the number. You just

1679
04:21:31.360 --> 04:21:41.399
need them. You require them to just calm down, slow down,

1680
04:21:43.760 --> 04:21:58.639
quiets down. And now, so as you focus on those

1681
04:21:59.360 --> 04:22:04.280
remaining thoughts, as we count down this time from seven

1682
04:22:05.200 --> 04:22:13.879
down to one. With each number, just imagine sprinkling those

1683
04:22:14.120 --> 04:22:33.559
flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude over those thoughts, which

1684
04:22:33.559 --> 04:22:39.559
will allow them to just melt away and relax deeply.

1685
04:22:43.719 --> 04:22:58.159
Of every number, those thoughts will become more and more relaxed.

1686
04:23:03.760 --> 04:25:35.879
Starting number seven, six, five four three. What it's you narrow,

1687
04:25:40.079 --> 04:26:01.319
notice how relaxed your feeling in your body. We're going

1688
04:26:01.399 --> 04:26:02.840
to focus.

1689
04:26:06.280 --> 04:26:07.319
On your hands.

1690
04:26:13.479 --> 04:26:19.399
Is the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed

1691
04:26:19.680 --> 04:26:22.159
your body and mind are.

1692
04:26:37.120 --> 04:26:37.719
And there's.

1693
04:26:39.239 --> 04:26:49.399
You focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing

1694
04:26:49.920 --> 04:26:54.639
needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists or

1695
04:26:55.719 --> 04:27:05.680
dance in the fingers or anything like that. M it's

1696
04:27:05.959 --> 04:27:20.559
just noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing how they feel.

1697
04:27:35.159 --> 04:27:45.639
Because the more relaxed your hands feel, the calmer your

1698
04:27:45.879 --> 04:27:57.760
mind feels, and the more comforts you feel throughout your body.

1699
04:28:02.959 --> 04:28:33.360
And gee may have already noticed you mind is starting

1700
04:28:37.000 --> 04:28:59.520
to dress. Like I said, just on your hands and fingers,

1701
04:29:04.440 --> 04:29:19.280
allowing them to experience a real deepening of that relaxation.

1702
04:29:20.000 --> 04:29:32.680
In your hands and fingers, more and more relaxed.

1703
04:29:38.000 --> 04:29:39.239
Each number.

1704
04:29:46.840 --> 04:29:47.760
From eight.

1705
04:29:50.000 --> 04:29:50.840
Down to one.

1706
04:29:55.920 --> 04:30:07.520
You can almost feel that healing and relaxing energy spreading into.

1707
04:30:07.360 --> 04:30:14.559
Your hands and fingers, becoming.

1708
04:30:18.319 --> 04:30:20.000
Eye law.

1709
04:30:22.000 --> 04:30:38.760
Relaxing with each number year going down from eight down

1710
04:30:39.520 --> 04:32:15.479
to one, drifting drifting again, starting with eight, seven, six

1711
04:32:50.399 --> 04:35:02.119
four three, Just be here now, nothing to think about

1712
04:35:03.880 --> 04:35:15.159
nothing to do, nothing to say, and everything just feels calm.

1713
04:35:20.080 --> 04:35:27.799
This is your natural state of being. This is how

1714
04:35:27.959 --> 04:35:34.520
you just normally feel when you take away all that

1715
04:35:34.959 --> 04:35:42.959
other stuff that we add, nothing that stress, and where

1716
04:35:43.000 --> 04:35:58.880
we a thin anxiety and change just genuinely thinking about stuff.

1717
04:36:01.119 --> 04:36:05.080
You take that away, which is what we do. What

1718
04:36:05.200 --> 04:36:06.040
we do now.

1719
04:36:12.319 --> 04:36:23.560
You're left with a real sense of peacefulness which comes

1720
04:36:23.720 --> 04:36:33.040
to you very quickly, because ultimately it is just a feeling,

1721
04:36:37.479 --> 04:36:45.799
a feeling of comfort, almost as if you've got inside

1722
04:36:45.880 --> 04:36:58.040
yourself and you've found a special place where everything is peaceful,

1723
04:37:01.200 --> 04:37:05.319
place where you can film relaxed.

1724
04:37:05.360 --> 04:37:13.720
And your natural sense of comfort, a place where you

1725
04:37:14.200 --> 04:37:23.479
can be you, where you can accept yourself with who

1726
04:37:23.639 --> 04:37:31.040
you are, the place where you're not trying to please

1727
04:37:31.639 --> 04:37:44.240
anybody else ever, a place where you can actually not

1728
04:37:44.560 --> 04:37:50.200
just en up yourself in some ways, more importantly, you can.

1729
04:37:50.439 --> 04:38:07.919
Like yourself, appreciate who you are, a sense of gratitude.

1730
04:38:11.000 --> 04:38:21.759
See the air worl realm you. That's also a place

1731
04:38:21.959 --> 04:38:26.759
where you can actually feel.

1732
04:38:28.159 --> 04:38:42.240
The healing energy soaking into your body. Healing energy soaking

1733
04:38:43.479 --> 04:38:53.919
into your body. The healing energy spreads through your veins,

1734
04:38:57.720 --> 04:39:04.560
traveling to each and every single part of your body.

1735
04:39:10.479 --> 04:39:14.919
When you start to realize that actually that healing.

1736
04:39:14.799 --> 04:39:23.080
Energy it's not just entered into your brain, it's.

1737
04:39:23.040 --> 04:39:32.639
Become part of your brain, and the spinal fluid.

1738
04:39:34.919 --> 04:39:42.919
Is now mixed with healing energy, just.

1739
04:39:45.080 --> 04:39:51.919
Allowing you to feel so much more relaxed and healthy.

1740
04:39:53.040 --> 04:39:53.959
In this moment.

1741
04:39:58.400 --> 04:40:07.880
But also you start to realize to actually, what's happening

1742
04:40:08.119 --> 04:40:16.639
now without a healing, relaxing energy spreading through your body,

1743
04:40:18.560 --> 04:40:29.400
it's actually changing your life. It's actually changing the way

1744
04:40:29.520 --> 04:40:36.080
you're going to feel, not just now, but tomorrow and

1745
04:40:36.200 --> 04:40:45.119
the next day. That your health improves, not just your

1746
04:40:45.240 --> 04:40:53.000
physical health, but your mental health. Deems that east to

1747
04:40:53.159 --> 04:40:59.279
bother you in the past, for some reason, no longer

1748
04:41:00.599 --> 04:41:01.959
have the effect.

1749
04:41:02.040 --> 04:41:02.880
That they used to.

1750
04:41:05.880 --> 04:41:08.639
Because something has changed.

1751
04:41:09.720 --> 04:41:10.959
Deep within you.

1752
04:41:16.040 --> 04:41:22.439
Maybe things they used to cause you to feel anger

1753
04:41:26.240 --> 04:41:33.599
no longer have that power to control you.

1754
04:41:36.080 --> 04:41:37.840
The way they seem to be able to.

1755
04:41:38.119 --> 04:41:53.000
Before you realize that you're the one who decides what

1756
04:41:53.319 --> 04:42:03.759
affects you. You're the one who just sids to feel

1757
04:42:04.360 --> 04:42:06.720
relaxed and calm.

1758
04:42:08.119 --> 04:42:10.240
When you choose.

1759
04:42:13.520 --> 04:42:28.000
To enjoy noticing these natural developments and healing continue to

1760
04:42:28.200 --> 04:42:42.080
grow and improve your life day by day, including of

1761
04:42:42.240 --> 04:42:55.439
course your ability to relax so much easier and sleeping.

1762
04:43:00.080 --> 04:43:05.720
It's the most natural thing in the world to you

1763
04:43:10.200 --> 04:43:13.520
because fall in the sleep is something that you've.

1764
04:43:13.520 --> 04:43:24.200
Done so many times in your life, and you know

1765
04:43:24.439 --> 04:43:27.599
that you were born, as we all.

1766
04:43:27.560 --> 04:43:38.000
Were, with the ability to fall asleep naturally, and you're

1767
04:43:38.159 --> 04:43:46.639
born with that ability to just drift.

1768
04:43:48.080 --> 04:43:52.840
Are into a deep, healing sleep.

1769
04:43:58.799 --> 04:44:03.599
Even when we're kids, sometimes we'll fall asleep and we

1770
04:44:03.680 --> 04:44:10.159
don't even want to try to stay awake. Maybe it's

1771
04:44:10.279 --> 04:44:15.000
a birthday in the morning, or it's Christmas or holiday or.

1772
04:44:15.000 --> 04:44:17.400
Something we look forward to. I don't want to go

1773
04:44:17.560 --> 04:44:22.439
to sleep. But the more you want to stay awake,

1774
04:44:24.680 --> 04:44:26.919
the more we just start to drift.

1775
04:44:31.080 --> 04:44:35.200
And the more you fight drifting or you try to

1776
04:44:35.279 --> 04:44:40.360
stop beside from drift in a safe the depot is

1777
04:44:40.520 --> 04:44:52.080
stronger thout drifting becomes because we're born not just with

1778
04:44:52.279 --> 04:44:55.240
the need to relax.

1779
04:44:54.959 --> 04:45:02.400
Deeply and to naturally fall asleep, but it's.

1780
04:45:02.360 --> 04:45:16.680
Our birthright, it's part of our DNA, and sometimes as

1781
04:45:16.759 --> 04:45:22.319
we get older in life, perhaps at times we have

1782
04:45:22.759 --> 04:45:38.400
forgotten the relaxing completely. It's not only a wonderfully pleasant experience,

1783
04:45:44.200 --> 04:45:45.840
it's also really.

1784
04:45:45.759 --> 04:46:04.840
Easy it's very, very easy to let go, because that's

1785
04:46:04.919 --> 04:46:06.040
all it is. It is just.

1786
04:46:09.560 --> 04:46:21.000
Deciding to let go. And when you press the play

1787
04:46:21.080 --> 04:46:29.279
button on my recordings, you have given permission.

1788
04:46:31.080 --> 04:46:39.439
From my voice to relaction. When you press that play.

1789
04:46:39.319 --> 04:46:49.599
Button, you have given me permission for my words to effect.

1790
04:46:51.639 --> 04:47:03.560
You in a positive, only a positive way. Opening up.

1791
04:47:08.680 --> 04:47:21.639
The mind too useful and healing suggestions.

1792
04:47:26.240 --> 04:47:26.840
They can have.

1793
04:47:31.439 --> 04:47:34.119
Such an amazing effect.

1794
04:47:36.560 --> 04:47:44.439
How you feel right now, as well.

1795
04:47:47.000 --> 04:47:54.840
