00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:08.160
Hello, Hello, it's me again. It's me again. Hello. Hello. Yes,

2
00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:13.759
ities that was the worst jingle. Yeah, it didn't rhyme.

3
00:00:13.880 --> 00:00:17.839
It sounded awful. Well. Actually, personally I thought this sounded

4
00:00:17.879 --> 00:00:26.440
quite nice, melodic but not harmonic. I don't know what

5
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:34.079
that means. So hello, hello, Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland

6
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:43.520
dot com. My name is Jason A new Land. Please

7
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:52.880
only listen, don't rice, it's my cardigan. Only listen when

8
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:58.119
you can safely close your eyes. A couple of quick

9
00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:04.400
shout outs, one to kill Cleo. You sent me a

10
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:12.439
message via my website, I think, and somehow the message

11
00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:18.799
has gone missing, and it was to do with I

12
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:23.959
think you're from China and you're telling me that it's

13
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:29.719
something that I read it, and I was half asleep

14
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:31.640
when I read it. I think I was in bed

15
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:33.799
and I read it, and I thought i'll read that

16
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.519
properly later, because sometimes I've read a message and I

17
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.159
don't get huge amounts of messages. Although you can send

18
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:44.680
me a personal message via my website if you want,

19
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:50.319
or on Facebook or whatever, mind it's not a good

20
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:53.120
advert because I might lose the message. But on this

21
00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:58.079
occasion I lost a message, so I didn't get a

22
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:02.319
chance to reply, So I apologize to that apologize. I'm

23
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:12.680
apologizing to you. I apologize, and who I don't know

24
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:18.240
what else I was going to say. Well, I'll start off,

25
00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:24.759
I went to an uncle auntie uncle sausages, fair well

26
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:28.960
ceremony today. And don't worry, I'm not going to be

27
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:31.400
morbid or anything like that. I'm not going to go

28
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:35.120
through that stuff. But it was kind of weird, you know,

29
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:40.159
had to be done. It's a standard procedure in our

30
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:47.120
society here. And then I did do a little video

31
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:51.800
in a cemetery outside because I got there quite earlier.

32
00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:58.560
I got there. I ordered a taxi yesterday for eight

33
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:07.599
point thirty this morning, because or I was going to say,

34
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:09.759
this show started at nine point thirty. Not the show,

35
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:14.120
but the ceremony started at nine point thirty. It's only

36
00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:19.680
for fifteen minutes, if that ten minutes, fifteen minutes. I

37
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:25.159
think he's eating one of his treats. He's right off

38
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:28.639
his food at the moment. But I think that's because

39
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:33.439
I keep giving him treats. So it's kind of my

40
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:40.639
own fault. But hey, I just sometimes think that he

41
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:45.919
deserves treats, you know, I want him to be happy,

42
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:51.240
and I want him to, you know, do things he

43
00:03:51.360 --> 00:04:00.199
enjoys doing, and he enjoys chomping on his treats to

44
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.560
get a lot of pleasure from that. Now, I'm not

45
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:05.199
giving him just treats and no food. You know, if

46
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.120
he doesn't eat his food, then I won't give him

47
00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:09.639
any treats until he starts eating his food again. But

48
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:11.639
he's been off his food for a day or so.

49
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:18.079
But I have been given some of my food, which

50
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:22.560
is just as good as the food he eats. So

51
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.399
technically he's not really not been eating. And he's only

52
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:30.600
a tiny little thing. He's the size of a parrot.

53
00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:34.120
He's not the size of a parrot. In fact, parrot's

54
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:38.879
probably bigger than him. Parrots are bigger, the big old things,

55
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:45.360
right right, that's my impression of a parrot. I didn't

56
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.600
put a lot of effort into that. I'll admit what

57
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.560
it would sound like if I actually did put some

58
00:04:51.639 --> 00:05:04.879
effort in right, Okay, right, right, No, that wasn't any better. So, yeah,

59
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:09.040
So I ordered a taxi. This is a secret, a secret.

60
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:14.920
This is it's kind of something I discovered about myself

61
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:22.560
more recently. If I order a taxi, the day before.

62
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:29.879
It gets me out of bed kind of forces me

63
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.759
to get out of bed because if a taxi turns up,

64
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:35.959
I'm going to have to pay with it. Then they

65
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:42.319
take me where I'm going or not. So it's just

66
00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:47.160
if I'm lying in bed, which I do sometimes, that's

67
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.360
probably the best place to lie, isn't it.

68
00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:49.920
Or lay?

69
00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:55.399
What's the difference between lying and laying because lying can

70
00:05:55.439 --> 00:06:04.199
also be telling fips on it. Laying so getting getting

71
00:06:04.279 --> 00:06:11.240
lied to? So getting lied that's being yeah, someone lying

72
00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:14.120
to you. But there's no you don't get laid A

73
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:19.000
wait a minute, get okay. But anyway, I was once

74
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:23.600
something in the morning. If I not have to be somewhere,

75
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.240
it doesn't matter what it is, where it is, what

76
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:33.079
it's for. For some reason, I I struggle a little

77
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.519
bit getting out of bed, which is part of the

78
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:41.480
reason why I really really try not to make appointments,

79
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:47.399
including just meeting up with people, because once I make

80
00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:49.959
an appointment, I start, for some reason, to be a

81
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:55.240
bit fretty about it, be to just start thinking about it,

82
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:05.639
and I don't want to that's my own issue. And

83
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:07.680
of course you know that I was that I didn't

84
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.600
want to go to this thing. I don't like them

85
00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:14.399
or know what it likes them. Today, No one like

86
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:17.439
wakes up or a looked at the weekend of their

87
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:20.319
diary and thinks, oh, what have I got any of

88
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:23.160
them things this month? Oh yeah, I've got one, got

89
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:24.160
one in two weeks.

90
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:24.480
Yeay.

91
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:31.120
No, you know, the goodbye ceremonies are not something that

92
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:35.759
anyone wants to really go to, but it's it's important.

93
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:41.439
I guess I think it's fairly important. So anyway, I

94
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:46.879
got up, got up this morning. I set my alarm

95
00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:55.079
for six o'clock. I went to bed about nine o'clock

96
00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.480
because I wanted to make sure that I was you know,

97
00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:05.879
normally I don't sleep for like twelve thirteen hours, but

98
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:07.439
this would have been one of the nights where I

99
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:11.600
probably would, you know, I'd wake up at half ten

100
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:16.240
in the morning and feel so refreshed, but then also think, oh, no,

101
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:24.920
I've missed. I've missed this event, which is important. So

102
00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:28.040
I wasn't going to allow that to happen. So I

103
00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:31.839
set my alarm on my phone. I don't have a clock.

104
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:35.440
I don't have one clock. I don't have a watch

105
00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:38.399
that I wear. I do have two watches that I

106
00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:43.960
don't wear, but there were gifts, so I've kept them.

107
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:46.960
I don't ever, I don't have. I don't have a

108
00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:54.360
clock on the wall. I don't have. I think you

109
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:59.519
made a bit more noise, please thanks. I don't have

110
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:04.159
a digital clock, you know, like in the old days.

111
00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:06.879
I don't know if they still make them. I'sed that

112
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:10.039
one of them. I tell you how, this is how

113
00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:14.360
old I am, right, I had a digital clock that

114
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:18.320
had pieces of card that used to flip over. No

115
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:21.320
lights or maybe a background light, but a little piece

116
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:25.639
of card that flipped over to change the time from

117
00:09:25.679 --> 00:09:33.480
like two fifty nine till three. It's weird, I'm explaining it,

118
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:39.039
but just like on a spiral, I guess. And yeah,

119
00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:48.159
that's going back a few years. I can't I'm trying

120
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:51.679
to think when was the last time I had an

121
00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:56.679
alarm like a digital clock. So I quite like the

122
00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:59.279
radio ones, so the ones that had a radio one,

123
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:02.519
and I definitely had one when I was a kid,

124
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:13.960
when I was fourteen fifteen, that's for definite. I probably

125
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:16.600
had one earlier than that as well, but I definitely

126
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:21.360
had one then because I used to have paper rounds

127
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:25.960
and I also worked in a bakery sort. I've had

128
00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.519
early starts. There's no way to got up without that,

129
00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:35.360
without the alarm. And I remember, actually this was or

130
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:38.759
even going to school, to be fair, even without the alarm,

131
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:42.200
without even if I didn't have to get up early

132
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:48.000
and just gap at normal time, let's say seven or

133
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:50.519
seven thirty or whatever, to get to be at school

134
00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:57.200
for court to nine, I would still need my alarm.

135
00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.240
You know. When I when I was very little, i'd

136
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:02.519
just get woken up. But this was the point where

137
00:11:02.559 --> 00:11:07.240
I just kind of got up on my own. There

138
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.399
comes a time in every teenager's life when they don't

139
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:11.279
want anyone walking in the first thing in the morning.

140
00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:23.080
It's yeah, no one likes being called tent boy, do they,

141
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:31.679
especially by the parents. So anyway, I went to went

142
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:36.919
to and oh, I remember once right, I woke up

143
00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:39.200
to this song. This was when I was at school,

144
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:44.720
probably about eighty three, nineteen eighty three or nineteen eighty four,

145
00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:47.840
one of them, but I'd say probably about nineteen eighty four,

146
00:11:49.399 --> 00:11:52.440
maybe eighty five, but I'm going to say eighty four

147
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:55.960
as a guess. Everything's a guess, really, especially when it

148
00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:07.039
comes to memory. Men. And I woke up to this

149
00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.799
song that blew me away, like because it would be

150
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:15.080
a radio station on. I don't know what it was.

151
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:19.039
It was Radio one or who knows, I can't remember,

152
00:12:19.360 --> 00:12:22.279
maybe just the local radio station. But I woke up

153
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:28.080
to this song, and for some reason, for about a week,

154
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:31.720
the same song was being played every time I woke up,

155
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:37.039
a bit like Groundhog Day, which in some ways my

156
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:42.639
whole was you could say, my whole life is in

157
00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:45.159
it in some ways. But at school it did seem

158
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:47.519
a little bit like that. Every day was like the

159
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:51.320
same getting up the blahber, doing this, doing that, same

160
00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:57.039
kind of routine. But it was the same song. I

161
00:12:57.080 --> 00:13:01.039
didn't think that it was the same day, you know.

162
00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:04.840
I didn't like, oh no, I'm stuck in a time

163
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:08.279
loop or I didn't have that issue. I wasn't worried

164
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:16.200
about that. But I fell in love with this song

165
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:25.519
and the song was dead ringer for love, Meet Loaf

166
00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:34.320
and share since I worded about my joy do do

167
00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:38.039
do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do

168
00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:45.519
Do Do Do do do baby baby er do do

169
00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:53.039
do you know what? I never ever, I've never got

170
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:58.440
done for copywriting, like for having a copyright music in

171
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:02.879
any of these recordings, like when it's on YouTube, which

172
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:05.399
means that none of my songs that I do ever

173
00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:12.559
sound anything even similar to the original song. I could look,

174
00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:16.759
I could sing you the whole a whole song, Buddy

175
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:19.840
Holly song that I'm memorized. I don't know why I

176
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:24.960
just did. It's a new thing I've been doing, and

177
00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:28.080
no one didn't even know what I was like always nice,

178
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.600
what was it? Well, they might not say that was nice,

179
00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:34.879
but I imagine people are saying nice things. If you've

180
00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:36.559
got to imagine people are saying things, you might as

181
00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:41.039
well why not imagine them saying nice things. You know,

182
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:43.360
it's the same things. Like if I'm going to imagine

183
00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:48.759
people talking about me, then let them say nice things

184
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:54.240
about me. It's a different way to look at things.

185
00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:59.440
People are planning. Maybe they're planning to give me a

186
00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:10.080
surprise birthday party. Yeah, anyway, dead Ring for Love. I

187
00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:13.919
just couldn't get enough of it. I had not seen

188
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:18.360
the video at this point, so this was like, Okay,

189
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:21.159
I say all week, this was the Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,

190
00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:24.679
Thursday morning. I'm partially making this up as I always do,

191
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:27.759
but you know, it was like the first four days

192
00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:33.080
of the week at school, Thursday evening we had Top

193
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:36.639
of the Pops, which was on I do believe seven

194
00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:41.200
thirty seven or seven thirty and that was the one

195
00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:44.559
time of the week. It was one of the most

196
00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:52.960
important programs for young people or anyone that liked music. Really,

197
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:56.799
I mean I watched Top of the Pops from being

198
00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:00.399
a little kid all the way till when they stopped

199
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:05.039
showing it. You know, I was because it was a

200
00:16:05.080 --> 00:16:08.399
good opportunity to see who was in the charts, what

201
00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:14.879
was relevant, what people were listening to, up to date music,

202
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:18.720
which is a phrase I don't thought i'd say out loud.

203
00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:24.759
I'm way out of I'm out of it completely now

204
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:29.559
when it comes to music. The thing is, I liked

205
00:16:29.639 --> 00:16:34.919
music in the two thousand's twenty tens, just you know,

206
00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:37.240
I liked a lot of new music that was out

207
00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:43.960
sort of ten years before I moved here. I was

208
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:47.759
watching video channels of music, and I was up to

209
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:52.039
date with all of the latest music. It didn't stop

210
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.200
me still loving the music that I loved before. It didn't.

211
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:00.000
You know, I didn't like one new song I loved,

212
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:03.399
didn't knock out another song from the past. It didn't

213
00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:15.000
erase that song, you know, but more recent years i've

214
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:19.200
kind of yeah, I have tried. I'm going to try again.

215
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:21.640
I think it's easier with the videos than it is

216
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:30.240
listening by hearing a song for the first time. I

217
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:35.799
think it's more interesting to see the video because there's

218
00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:42.680
more going on. I think I know what I'm talking about.

219
00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:45.000
I think, yeah, I think it is. It just makes

220
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:49.480
it a bit more. But then there's that repetition, the repetition

221
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:53.519
of hearing the same song over and over again, like

222
00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:59.839
on a radio. I remember, I don't know if I

223
00:17:59.920 --> 00:18:02.400
was listen did I hear this on the radio or

224
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:05.759
I don't know, but it was I didn't like it,

225
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:13.279
and it was Beyonce Drunken Love and I heard that,

226
00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:18.720
and I'm thinking, if I heard that on the radio,

227
00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:23.759
how did I hear it on the radio? Because I

228
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:27.519
don't even listen to the radio, so I can't remember,

229
00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:30.759
you know, because a few years ago, unless it was

230
00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:35.519
just a music video thing that I was watching a

231
00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:43.279
music video channel and I genuinely thought it was the

232
00:18:43.519 --> 00:18:51.279
biggest pile. I just didn't The video is good, but

233
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:54.200
I did not like the song. I thought, this is

234
00:18:54.240 --> 00:19:01.000
not even cohesive, it's all off killer, it's this is

235
00:19:01.079 --> 00:19:08.759
not it's not a song, it's not melodic. It's really

236
00:19:08.839 --> 00:19:15.000
just like what was going on here? And then after

237
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:17.000
hearing it a few times, I really liked it.

238
00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:28.960
Urban Missings and ed Missing, I mean I do.

239
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:37.640
I've mentioned this before, but Beyonce, I mean, she is

240
00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:45.880
what a phenomenal voice. I think the thing is with

241
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:50.640
her is she could have just as easily gone on

242
00:19:51.640 --> 00:20:00.000
and done kind of the same type of music or

243
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:04.039
the same kind of I don't know what the correct

244
00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:08.759
term is, but it's like Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston

245
00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:18.920
or Celine Dion or that kind of like Balladish because

246
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:22.559
of her voice, how good her voice is, and she

247
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:26.559
would have been successful whatever she did. I think she'd

248
00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:31.400
have been successful because she's got such a great voice.

249
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:36.559
But she chose to go in a completely different way.

250
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:41.640
And I mean, as far as I don't know, she

251
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:44.160
writes all the songs or she co writes her songs,

252
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:51.839
but yeah, she's so many This wasn't supposed to be

253
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:55.799
about Beyonce. But what's that got to do with Uncle

254
00:20:55.880 --> 00:21:00.319
Banana's not Uncle Banana's Uncle sausages. Sorry, that's what one

255
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:05.519
of the neighbors called him. Uncle bananas banana man, which

256
00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:12.359
one of the neighbors kids saw him on that day

257
00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:15.519
before he went into hospital, and she started calling a

258
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.720
banana man from then on. But you know, she's like

259
00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:26.240
nine years old, so I can't. It's this kids are

260
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:28.960
innocent and they kind of, you know, in that way.

261
00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:31.559
She didn't. She just found it funny that he was.

262
00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:35.880
Not funny that he was because no one knew he

263
00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:37.640
was little bit because he was a different color. He

264
00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:41.960
was yellow, and she thought it was like he'd been

265
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:56.519
eating too many bananas or something like that. Anyway, it

266
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:01.359
was a lovely picture of him, uh in thing today

267
00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:05.440
and he had this is holding umbrella. And it's really

268
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:07.440
weird because you know, when you meet someone when they're

269
00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:12.359
is it okay to say elderly someone when they're seventy eight.

270
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:16.000
Sebastian calls me elderly. Ten years ago, it was calling

271
00:22:16.039 --> 00:22:20.640
me elderly. But if you don't know Sebastian is he's

272
00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:25.480
my arch enemy. He's listening to this right now that

273
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:31.519
this will make him smile. Blimey, finny, that was really loud.

274
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:36.319
Even I heard it. Even Uncle Sausages heard it. Let's

275
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:41.119
stop it, And so yeah, I was you know it's loud.

276
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:54.559
Wow, that that is really really noisy.

277
00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:10.319
What was I saying, Beyonce? It was weird because she's

278
00:23:10.359 --> 00:23:14.279
so glamorous. She did an award show and I think

279
00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:18.839
she was singing on an award show, a big spectacular

280
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:21.720
maybe it was the Oscars or one of those kind

281
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:28.960
of places, and she's stared with this stunning dress. Not

282
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:31.880
that I really appreciate stunning dresses, but it was even

283
00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:36.680
I could see it was. It was clearly a lot

284
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:43.559
of work put into getting dressed up, playing dress up.

285
00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:49.519
So she looks probably like a billion dollars because she

286
00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:52.559
is a billion dollar are and she but she yeah,

287
00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:56.119
she looked. Imagine she took hours and hours and hours

288
00:23:56.160 --> 00:24:02.240
and hours and hours getting ready for thatformance just with

289
00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:06.359
the clothes. Probably took a whole team of people to

290
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:13.559
put that together, because it was just it's quite outrageously

291
00:24:13.759 --> 00:24:20.359
fab Anyway, she's singing. She comes out singing, and all

292
00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:23.680
the audience are loving it, and the you know, being

293
00:24:23.720 --> 00:24:28.359
watched by millions, maybe billions of people around the world,

294
00:24:28.440 --> 00:24:33.680
this live event, and she's singing a song and then

295
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.000
it's time for her husband to come on and accompany

296
00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:42.599
her with one of her songs jay Z and he

297
00:24:42.680 --> 00:24:45.359
pops on and he eats ort of walks on in

298
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:52.480
these I don't know what he was wearing. There were

299
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:55.559
kind of like tracksuit bottoms that were half hanging down

300
00:24:55.640 --> 00:25:04.680
his bum, and I don't know, he kind of she

301
00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:11.599
looked like she was there. She looked like she was

302
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:17.319
there to basically be crowned a princess, like it was

303
00:25:17.759 --> 00:25:22.720
a royal wedding. He looked like he'd lost his mop.

304
00:25:24.119 --> 00:25:27.960
He's like where I left it somewhere, you know. It's

305
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:32.920
it's just the way he was dressed. I mean not no,

306
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:38.359
I dress bad, but he probably everything he was wearing

307
00:25:39.200 --> 00:25:42.680
was probably one of his socks probably costs more than

308
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:50.759
my entire life's earnings. But I just did the biggest

309
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:54.200
knees in the world just then. Even then, he stopped

310
00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:59.000
and looked at me, like normally he'll have a look

311
00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:01.160
and he'll carry on, but this time he actually said,

312
00:26:01.240 --> 00:26:09.759
are you okay? You're right? Do you need help? And

313
00:26:11.559 --> 00:26:14.839
I don't know why, but it made me laugh. When

314
00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:17.400
I saw him come on stage, he hopped on stage

315
00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:24.160
and it was like grabbing his crotch and I was, ah,

316
00:26:25.759 --> 00:26:27.920
boot the Buddha bet and they beat the Buddha Birth

317
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:36.359
and I'm thinking, oh, I know, because he's about seventy now,

318
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:43.279
and I don't know. See, I'm I used to love

319
00:26:43.319 --> 00:26:49.599
eminem and Minimum and Minimum back in the late nineties.

320
00:26:49.640 --> 00:26:53.759
You know, when he was I would argue, Sayso's peak

321
00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:58.519
was stand and you know that album. Really liked that

322
00:26:58.599 --> 00:27:05.160
album a lot. I'm listening to one hundreds and hundreds

323
00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:13.960
and hundreds of times. But he was in his twenties

324
00:27:17.039 --> 00:27:19.359
and he was dressing like that. It's now in his

325
00:27:19.440 --> 00:27:24.200
fifties and he's still dressing like that, and I don't

326
00:27:24.240 --> 00:27:29.240
know it. He had a song recently and it was

327
00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:35.319
about basically getting slim Shady back or something like in

328
00:27:35.359 --> 00:27:38.039
this light video where he's got him and him when

329
00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:42.759
he was back in his twenties competing against each other

330
00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:48.200
or something, and it's I mean, there's no rule. It

331
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:51.440
was like, okay, with someone in their fifties can't good. Clearly,

332
00:27:51.519 --> 00:27:53.559
I'm an example of someone in their fifties that are

333
00:27:53.599 --> 00:28:00.839
pretty amazing, but dumb, dumb, dumb, you can't see me

334
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:09.920
if it's kind of like if I was, Yeah, I

335
00:28:09.960 --> 00:28:11.839
think this is the thing I've got. There's an old

336
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:16.440
saying isn't it. You know, someone say, oh, you've got

337
00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:19.960
a voice for radio. Well, I've got a face for radio.

338
00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:25.359
It's you know, it's the best place. Although this isn't radio,

339
00:28:25.480 --> 00:28:28.839
but this is the modern day version of radio in

340
00:28:28.880 --> 00:28:31.759
a way, isn't it. It's just you choose your own show.

341
00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:36.000
So instead of listening to me at nine o'clock in

342
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:43.400
the evening on a Friday night or whatever, you can

343
00:28:43.480 --> 00:28:48.559
listen to me whenever you want. Yeah, and there's no

344
00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:56.000
news bulletins, there's no musaic there. You know, it's better

345
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:00.720
in some ways, but also a lot worse in other ways.

346
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:07.720
Maybe maybe anyway, I think jay Z was all right.

347
00:29:08.279 --> 00:29:10.599
I like some of his stuff. The stuff he did

348
00:29:10.680 --> 00:29:19.000
with Eminem was good, but it just I don't know.

349
00:29:19.039 --> 00:29:25.400
I think there's something about it would be because I

350
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:33.319
think when Eminem is like in his seventies, is he

351
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:38.359
still going to be is he still going to be

352
00:29:38.359 --> 00:29:40.519
doing this? He's still going to be dyeing his hair black,

353
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:44.920
which he does now? And is he and you can

354
00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:49.079
see as black and his beards black dyed because you

355
00:29:49.160 --> 00:29:55.000
know he ain't. You just can tell. It's weird the

356
00:29:55.039 --> 00:30:00.920
amount of people I see who have got clearly jet

357
00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:08.160
black dyed beards. And you know how you can tell

358
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:16.079
because the beards are jet black. That's how you can tell.

359
00:30:19.079 --> 00:30:22.559
Because generally anyone over the age of thirty is going

360
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:26.640
to have the odd gray I know some people do, like,

361
00:30:26.799 --> 00:30:31.720
you know, tweeze them out. I used to do that.

362
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:35.240
I did. It's amazing. I used to do that at

363
00:30:35.240 --> 00:30:37.599
the front of my hair. And someone said to me,

364
00:30:38.279 --> 00:30:40.519
you shouldn't do that. You've only got a few gray hairs.

365
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:43.440
Don't tweeze them out at the front of your hair

366
00:30:44.359 --> 00:30:48.640
or the back of your head because that park start

367
00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:52.799
to receive or go baled. And I laughed at them.

368
00:30:53.000 --> 00:31:00.799
Who's laughing now? Not me? No, I didn't, would you?

369
00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:03.680
Why would I? Why would I tweeze the hairs in

370
00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:10.079
the back of my head? I can't see them. It's

371
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:14.359
really weird. Why would that part? Because that's a part

372
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:17.599
on the baby's head, isn't it. That's the fragile part

373
00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:23.240
for the first few weeks or whatever. So why why

374
00:31:23.599 --> 00:31:36.559
why would that part go bored anyone? I reckon, I reckon.

375
00:31:36.599 --> 00:31:42.400
I'll probably I've still have hair in ten years, I

376
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:47.079
do believe. I don't mean just at the sights because

377
00:31:47.160 --> 00:31:51.359
I don't. I kin'd of. I don't see the point

378
00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:55.599
in doing that myself personally, just for me. If I'm

379
00:31:55.599 --> 00:31:57.640
going to be bored up as well, just be bored

380
00:31:58.960 --> 00:32:01.720
if I'm going to shave my head head. But then

381
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:07.759
I'm starting to feel more attached to my hair now

382
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:13.000
that it's going. Now it's leaving me. It's like at

383
00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:15.759
the end of a bad relationship. And I'm not begging,

384
00:32:16.359 --> 00:32:19.599
Oh please, I can change, don't leave me. I can change.

385
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:24.359
I can start changing my underpants more than once a month.

386
00:32:24.759 --> 00:32:28.759
I can change, you know. It's like, but the hairs

387
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:32.880
having none of it. No, we're leaving, but they don't.

388
00:32:33.119 --> 00:32:37.279
But it's not a quick like a quick leave, a

389
00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:39.440
quick gone. It's like we're going to leave you, but

390
00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:46.359
we're going to spend years doing it. Oh thanks. I've

391
00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:49.759
never really had any of those moments where I've been

392
00:32:49.839 --> 00:32:54.480
washing my hair and like a big amount comes out, thankfully.

393
00:32:57.240 --> 00:33:01.640
It's just it's like gradual, very gradual. I mean, I

394
00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:06.759
know I've had friends that had our alopecia where just

395
00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:09.799
like clumps of coming out. It's like they didn't know

396
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:15.640
what the heck was going on. And yeah, I had

397
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:21.039
a friend a year long time ago he had alopecia,

398
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:29.240
and back then they didn't know what was causing it.

399
00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:31.720
I mean, I'm sure there's there's not like a specific

400
00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:34.920
only one thing that can cause it. But I know stress,

401
00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:42.319
and I know someone who's when he changes his lifestyle,

402
00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:48.400
the alopecia stops. Right, That's all I'm going to go

403
00:33:48.440 --> 00:33:51.119
into that. But he has a certain lifestyle. When he

404
00:33:51.240 --> 00:33:53.680
changes that lifestyle, when he stops doing what he's doing,

405
00:33:55.119 --> 00:34:02.039
is alopecia clears up. And some people, if they get

406
00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:06.039
out of the stressful situation, that can also help. But

407
00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:10.599
then there's other people that I think perhaps there's no

408
00:34:11.000 --> 00:34:19.559
reason for it, there's no logical explanation. I wonder, if

409
00:34:19.599 --> 00:34:23.039
I've got alopecia in the top of my head, maybe

410
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:25.960
that's just a temporary board spot and it's going to

411
00:34:26.039 --> 00:34:37.440
grow back. Ah, I'm clutching it something. Oh guess what

412
00:34:39.159 --> 00:34:45.000
in my local fields. Then he got me walking. He

413
00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:47.239
basically went to the end of the road because I

414
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:49.920
took him out. I took him out this morning before

415
00:34:50.840 --> 00:34:59.199
going to Uncle's Sausages Farewell, and so that was about

416
00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:06.159
six o'clock morning, and then I had to really I

417
00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:07.840
didn't want to get ready, he didn't want to go out,

418
00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:10.920
but I knew I had to have this is afterwards.

419
00:35:11.599 --> 00:35:15.119
So I'm out in the park at six, come back.

420
00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:17.719
It's light lights still at six in the morning, which

421
00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:26.519
is good. And then about half past seven, I go

422
00:35:26.559 --> 00:35:29.639
and have a shower. And as soon as I get

423
00:35:29.719 --> 00:35:33.000
up and go in a bathroom and start having a shower,

424
00:35:33.519 --> 00:35:42.199
Vinnie is very attentive to what I'm doing. He's watching me.

425
00:35:42.440 --> 00:35:44.000
I can't see him watching me because I'm in the

426
00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:47.960
shower and there's two doors closed, but I know he's listening.

427
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:54.039
I mean, technically I can't know that he's listening, but

428
00:35:54.159 --> 00:35:59.039
just because I know him so well, he's he seems

429
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:01.719
to know when I'm going out, when I'm getting ned

430
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:06.400
to leave him. And no, it's not the only time.

431
00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:08.960
It's not the only time I have a shower is

432
00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:14.119
when I leave him. Is that literally would be five

433
00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:17.719
four four, three times a year, So I'm not not

434
00:36:17.800 --> 00:36:22.840
quite that bad, but it's been more recently, more often

435
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:27.760
recently because of Uncle Sausages. Last week, I had to

436
00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:33.639
go to to leave him Monday because I had a

437
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:37.960
doctor's appointment. I still not received the results of the

438
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:48.199
blood test and then on previous to that, The last

439
00:36:48.199 --> 00:36:56.800
time I went out was beginning of August. So yes,

440
00:36:57.039 --> 00:36:59.880
it's been a while. But he started to get used

441
00:36:59.880 --> 00:37:04.559
to me going out every day or every every other day,

442
00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:07.000
and he didn't, you know, he kind of got got

443
00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:09.039
used to it to the point where he didn't like it.

444
00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:14.760
Still caused a bit of a fuss, but he seemed

445
00:37:14.760 --> 00:37:17.840
to be accepted it. But now he's gone back to

446
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:21.400
his old ways where he will not he would not

447
00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:24.320
put up with it, not even for me just to

448
00:37:24.360 --> 00:37:29.280
go and put a rubbish bag into the rubbish bin downstairs.

449
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:34.880
I'm literally coming straight back. Then. Nope, you know you're not.

450
00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:39.920
You're never coming back. I am. So what I do

451
00:37:40.079 --> 00:37:42.119
is I leave the door open. I don't. I'm not.

452
00:37:42.480 --> 00:37:44.239
I don't leave the front door open, but I leave

453
00:37:44.280 --> 00:37:48.360
it so it doesn't close. You know, Well that's open then,

454
00:37:48.400 --> 00:37:50.599
isn't it. You know what I mean? It's not wide open,

455
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:53.800
it's not pushed open, it's not kept open by a

456
00:37:54.960 --> 00:38:01.159
door opening device. It's but it's kind of of there's

457
00:38:01.199 --> 00:38:03.599
a gap, a little gap so you can hear me,

458
00:38:04.519 --> 00:38:06.360
so I can talk to him, so if he barks,

459
00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:10.440
I can talk to him as I go down the stairs, right, Vinnie,

460
00:38:11.480 --> 00:38:13.800
I'm just taking the first step now, I'm not leaving.

461
00:38:13.880 --> 00:38:18.880
I'm coming back. I'm halfway down the stairs now, Vinnie.

462
00:38:19.199 --> 00:38:23.360
I'm coming back. I promise. I'm near the bottom of

463
00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:31.440
the stairs now, Vinnie, Okay, just calm down. And then

464
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:35.079
I shouted to him, I'm going out, ha, see you later,

465
00:38:35.599 --> 00:38:41.800
and I run off and he doesn't like that. But

466
00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:47.039
he's quite cool, if you can hear me. He's usually okay, usually,

467
00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:53.880
But today what was I talking about, Vinnie?

468
00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:54.880
For? Oh?

469
00:38:54.960 --> 00:38:58.960
Yeah, this morning, I just couldn't but I was getting

470
00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:08.920
ready and he he caused a fuss, such a fuss.

471
00:39:09.719 --> 00:39:12.000
I just feel a little bit guilty leaving him because

472
00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:18.239
I know how much he doesn't want me to. Well,

473
00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:22.039
I know, yeah, he doesn't want me to, there's no question.

474
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:23.920
I mean, yeah, I don't know what's going on in

475
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:27.480
his mind, and I'm not. I can't. I've got no

476
00:39:29.199 --> 00:39:40.320
thermostat to check his emotional levels. But I've spent what

477
00:39:40.559 --> 00:39:43.480
nearly three years with him, twenty four hours a day

478
00:39:43.519 --> 00:39:46.320
pretty much, so I've kind of got to know him

479
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:55.840
pretty well. I would say he don't like me leaving him. Yeah,

480
00:39:55.920 --> 00:39:58.800
I think that's pretty certain to say that doesn't like

481
00:39:58.840 --> 00:40:04.559
me leaving him. So I contended with that by I

482
00:40:04.679 --> 00:40:08.039
ordered a taxi and I was getting ready. A taxi

483
00:40:08.079 --> 00:40:11.039
got it early, so it was here about twenty past eight,

484
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:17.400
or maybe twenty three minutes past eight, but it was early,

485
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:25.039
but I thought, well, I'm ready. But I was still

486
00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:27.440
doing the last few little bits, putting stuff into a

487
00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:33.440
carrier bag and you know, things like that. Made sure

488
00:40:33.480 --> 00:40:37.840
I had a couple of bottles of water and had

489
00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:46.119
my phone or else on my wallet. I always had

490
00:40:46.199 --> 00:40:48.079
my keys because I have to. I always lock the

491
00:40:48.079 --> 00:40:52.599
door if I leave, so I can't leave without my keys, unless,

492
00:40:52.599 --> 00:40:54.559
of course, I mean if I lost my keys, and

493
00:40:55.119 --> 00:40:59.280
I'll be in trouble. But it's not something generally that happens.

494
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:02.320
Or I did lose my wallet. I thought I lost

495
00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:06.400
what Technically, I thought i'd lost my wallet because I

496
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:10.400
couldn't find it. But that is losing your wallet, isn't it.

497
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:15.639
Isn't that literally the literal meaning of losing something not

498
00:41:15.719 --> 00:41:20.360
being able to find it. So I had indeed lost

499
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:28.079
my wallet, but I also hadn't lost it because it

500
00:41:28.199 --> 00:41:32.960
was in here somewhere, and I did find it, but

501
00:41:33.039 --> 00:41:36.559
it took quite a bit of searching, and it was

502
00:41:36.639 --> 00:41:40.760
underneath a bunch of paperwork. I think it was either

503
00:41:40.840 --> 00:41:43.679
on that table over there or the other table, which

504
00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:46.440
is meaningless because you can't see where I'm pointing, can you.

505
00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:47.440
Oh?

506
00:41:47.519 --> 00:41:54.719
Well, but temporarily i'd lost it, and I didn't really

507
00:41:54.840 --> 00:41:56.360
think that I was going to have to phone the

508
00:41:56.440 --> 00:42:02.239
bank cancel the card. That's it, really, There's nothing really

509
00:42:02.280 --> 00:42:08.639
much else in there. My bus pass, I think that's it.

510
00:42:08.880 --> 00:42:16.119
There's nothing else in there. There might have been ten

511
00:42:16.199 --> 00:42:21.360
or twenty pound in cash. I think it's always handed

512
00:42:21.400 --> 00:42:27.199
to at a little bit of cash for emergencies, just

513
00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:32.719
because I had a problem before. This is during my

514
00:42:32.880 --> 00:42:38.159
traveling to the hospital every day where the credit card

515
00:42:38.199 --> 00:42:42.280
machine didn't work, or in the taxi and I tried

516
00:42:42.280 --> 00:42:45.920
it twice and it still didn't work. Luckily I had

517
00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:49.079
I think I had about one hundred pounds in cash

518
00:42:49.360 --> 00:42:52.119
in my wallet that I drawn out the day before

519
00:42:52.559 --> 00:42:56.000
from the cash machine because I knew it was going

520
00:42:56.079 --> 00:42:57.960
to be expensive. I was going to have to buy

521
00:42:58.000 --> 00:43:03.800
stuff in the hospital, drinks and food and stuff for

522
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:09.280
me and Uncle, sausages. So I had this cash, but

523
00:43:09.320 --> 00:43:14.400
I wasn't going to use it in the taxi. I

524
00:43:14.440 --> 00:43:16.800
was just going to use the card in a taxi,

525
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:21.599
so I paid the card. I say, I tried it twice,

526
00:43:21.679 --> 00:43:23.960
didn't work. It turns out it was the machine that

527
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:27.079
was fault. You're not me. And I said, look, I

528
00:43:27.159 --> 00:43:31.599
literally just got paid yesterday and there's enough money in there.

529
00:43:32.559 --> 00:43:34.480
And I showed him. I like, look on my phone

530
00:43:34.719 --> 00:43:37.599
and I said, oh, is that all you got? I said,

531
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:42.360
come on, that's rude. He said, you're rude. And he said,

532
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:44.199
are you going to keep saying that when anyone says

533
00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:47.079
you're rude and then you say you're rude? Is that

534
00:43:47.559 --> 00:43:50.280
You've been doing that for seven years? Can't you try

535
00:43:50.320 --> 00:43:56.800
something different? I said, I'm always trying different things always.

536
00:43:58.039 --> 00:44:00.440
I mean, I'm going to talk about scraws again, and minute,

537
00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:03.280
do you mean a game? Okay, not a game, but

538
00:44:04.119 --> 00:44:06.639
I haven't talked about squirrels for a while, and I

539
00:44:06.639 --> 00:44:08.920
was going to talk about squirrels and that was perhaps

540
00:44:08.920 --> 00:44:14.159
going to be my new thing. What a new thing

541
00:44:14.239 --> 00:44:18.239
about squirrels? What is it? Then? I said, well, I

542
00:44:18.239 --> 00:44:21.360
can't tell you now. That's going to ruin it for everyone.

543
00:44:22.400 --> 00:44:28.199
I wanted to be a surprise. Okay, Well is it

544
00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:30.880
a story? Is it a pun? Is it a joke?

545
00:44:31.800 --> 00:44:35.559
Was the story? It's just a little story, but it's

546
00:44:35.599 --> 00:44:39.960
something that will delight your world once you hear it.

547
00:44:40.920 --> 00:44:44.119
Except really well told me now and then I said no, no,

548
00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:48.480
So I paid him the cash, got out, and I

549
00:44:48.559 --> 00:44:52.519
ran home because I just thought he was going to

550
00:44:52.559 --> 00:44:55.159
chase me until I told him what the story was.

551
00:44:58.079 --> 00:45:07.079
And the next day, right, I get into a taxi,

552
00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:14.199
I try and use the the card debit card. I

553
00:45:14.199 --> 00:45:17.440
don't have any credit cards but a debit card, and

554
00:45:17.480 --> 00:45:24.480
it declined it again. I'm thinking what so I paid cash.

555
00:45:25.199 --> 00:45:29.400
I go into on the way. Yeah. I go into

556
00:45:29.440 --> 00:45:38.079
the petrol station. It declines. It declines my card and

557
00:45:41.159 --> 00:45:46.199
I put it in the code still declines it. I

558
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:55.440
go to the machine outside declines. Luckily I got my

559
00:45:55.480 --> 00:45:58.960
card back. It didn't steal my card. Start paid by

560
00:45:59.039 --> 00:46:02.360
cash in in the petro station because only to get

561
00:46:02.400 --> 00:46:07.360
a couple of drinks or something. It wasn't anything big,

562
00:46:07.920 --> 00:46:11.519
and I'm thinking, wow, this is not good. I get

563
00:46:11.559 --> 00:46:15.239
to the hospital, I go into Costas to buy some coffee,

564
00:46:15.760 --> 00:46:20.079
one for I think I might got one myself. The

565
00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:24.880
thing is, I don't drink coffee very much, and I

566
00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:28.400
realized now why I can't drink coffee. It makes me

567
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:32.440
feel unwell. But I used to drink coffee. I used

568
00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:34.039
to have well, there was a time when I used

569
00:46:34.039 --> 00:46:42.480
to drink coffee, like really regularly, multiple times a day.

570
00:46:42.639 --> 00:46:49.440
And even going back many years, I've been on and

571
00:46:49.440 --> 00:46:52.639
off the coffee. I've gotten years about drinking coffee, and

572
00:46:52.679 --> 00:46:55.039
then I go period when I'm just drinking it a lot.

573
00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:02.880
I can't drink it really anymore and makes you feel ill,

574
00:47:03.360 --> 00:47:06.039
give him palpitations and stuff. It's just a bit too much.

575
00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:18.519
So anyway, I got this coffee. I think I got

576
00:47:18.559 --> 00:47:21.840
two cups of coffee because I thought I'll treat myself.

577
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:28.039
I'm getting him a coffee. I think it was a

578
00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:30.239
bit of a cloudy day that day because this was

579
00:47:30.320 --> 00:47:34.960
during when Uncle Sausages first went to hospital. It was

580
00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:41.199
probably the hottest week on record in this country. Ever,

581
00:47:42.480 --> 00:47:49.239
it was not really really hot, you know, just really

582
00:47:49.280 --> 00:47:55.400
hot on those days. We didn't have coffee, or he

583
00:47:55.440 --> 00:48:01.039
didn't have coffee, but he did have air conditioning in

584
00:48:01.360 --> 00:48:07.000
his ward. It wasn't like a proper air conditioning. It's

585
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:08.840
one of those things where they stick a big tube

586
00:48:08.840 --> 00:48:12.480
out of the window one of those things. That's what

587
00:48:12.519 --> 00:48:14.719
I mean. It wasn't in built to the structure of

588
00:48:14.719 --> 00:48:18.320
the building, That's what I mean. It did the job definitely,

589
00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:24.679
and if anything, they're probably better because they're dealing with

590
00:48:24.800 --> 00:48:28.119
direct air, so you're not just spreading all around the

591
00:48:28.239 --> 00:48:31.400
entire building, which I think is probably a good idea

592
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:35.599
for a hospital not to have air conditioning. Spreading the

593
00:48:35.639 --> 00:48:39.400
air from one ward to another doesn't seem like a

594
00:48:39.480 --> 00:48:43.079
very good idea generally, if I think about it. Not

595
00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:52.440
that I'm an expert on ward air. So I've got

596
00:48:52.440 --> 00:48:58.920
small bottles of water delivered today. So I've now got one, two, three, four.

597
00:48:59.119 --> 00:49:06.360
I found seven packs of twelve is it twelve or six?

598
00:49:07.239 --> 00:49:12.199
Possibly seven packs of six, I don't know, So I'm

599
00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:17.719
really and I've got some more face wipes, some more

600
00:49:20.679 --> 00:49:25.480
What else did I get? Because I've been stocking up

601
00:49:26.440 --> 00:49:31.400
for the rest of the year, and I'm quite pleased

602
00:49:31.400 --> 00:49:36.960
with how it's gone, because okay, it's not food, and

603
00:49:37.280 --> 00:49:39.679
the closest thing to anything I've got there that's food.

604
00:49:40.159 --> 00:49:43.840
What water is the most important thing in the world,

605
00:49:43.920 --> 00:49:48.920
isn't it to have? But apart from okay, most of

606
00:49:49.000 --> 00:49:52.159
it's not going to be going into my mouth other

607
00:49:52.199 --> 00:49:56.320
than the water and the tea bags. But I don't

608
00:49:56.320 --> 00:49:57.960
mean I eat the tea bacs. I mean, you know,

609
00:49:58.079 --> 00:50:01.039
for tea. And I've got enough to to last me

610
00:50:01.440 --> 00:50:04.639
for the rest of the year as well, so that's good.

611
00:50:05.639 --> 00:50:09.320
But everything else is just like mouth washed, toothpaste, deodorant,

612
00:50:10.719 --> 00:50:22.880
and toilet paper, washing up liquid. I'm just trying to think.

613
00:50:23.559 --> 00:50:29.760
I've also got quite a few Yeah, I got quite

614
00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:37.199
a few boxes of cereal now, so I've got like

615
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:42.199
five or six boxes of ready bread, about six boxes

616
00:50:42.320 --> 00:50:50.000
of Mooseley, so you know, it's just getting stocked up

617
00:50:50.079 --> 00:50:55.840
ready so I can It wasn't really about getting stocked

618
00:50:55.920 --> 00:50:59.559
up on food, but that is. That's food, isn't it.

619
00:51:00.800 --> 00:51:03.719
But it's definitely going to be handy because if I

620
00:51:03.760 --> 00:51:08.639
suddenly didn't have a penny, I can still eat. I've

621
00:51:08.639 --> 00:51:11.639
got my breakfast cereal I can have that. I've got water,

622
00:51:11.920 --> 00:51:14.719
I've got you know, so I've got the bear of sentrals.

623
00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:17.639
I'm not going to run out of toilet paper anytime soon.

624
00:51:20.639 --> 00:51:23.079
The only thing that I need more of is shampoo.

625
00:51:24.000 --> 00:51:32.840
Don't laugh. When I get in a shower, I still

626
00:51:32.880 --> 00:51:38.639
shampooed my hair twice I do. Do you know people

627
00:51:38.679 --> 00:51:41.159
always you know, people always looking those kind of people

628
00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:46.119
are always looking for a blame, always looking for a

629
00:51:46.159 --> 00:51:49.000
reason to blame. You know, it's because of that, it's

630
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:51.400
because you do this, because you do that, they are

631
00:51:51.400 --> 00:51:53.920
the ones all be thinking. It's because you're about your

632
00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:57.039
shampoo your hair twice a day, that's why. That's why

633
00:51:57.079 --> 00:52:02.800
it's falling out. It's not why. Trust me, I've gone periods, well,

634
00:52:03.239 --> 00:52:06.480
I've not washed my hair for periods of time and

635
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:10.039
it's still falling out. It's not because of that. Besides,

636
00:52:10.760 --> 00:52:13.880
I've had a shaven head most of my life. Really,

637
00:52:17.239 --> 00:52:20.159
I don't shampoo my hair. When I've got a shaven head.

638
00:52:20.519 --> 00:52:23.159
I might give it little a little bit of shampoo

639
00:52:23.320 --> 00:52:26.159
just but that's it, just for the scalp. But I

640
00:52:27.519 --> 00:52:33.639
don't have to do much when it's shaven. And my

641
00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:38.639
hair has been really really short or shaven most of

642
00:52:38.679 --> 00:52:45.159
the time since two thousand and two. And there's been

643
00:52:45.159 --> 00:52:49.840
periods when it's been really long and bushy, but generally

644
00:52:51.280 --> 00:52:55.480
that's when I look baldest. It's when it's long, that's

645
00:52:55.519 --> 00:52:59.880
when you can see the big gaps between follicles. It

646
00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:06.199
really stands out. I thought, wow, it's almost like.

647
00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:09.079
I.

648
00:53:09.280 --> 00:53:12.960
It was so it was so frizzy and long. I

649
00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:17.760
remember my friend Luke. He said, hold on a second.

650
00:53:18.559 --> 00:53:21.039
I said, Well, he just walked over to me and

651
00:53:21.079 --> 00:53:25.280
he parted because I used to have my hair kind

652
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:29.079
of back but sort of standing up. He didn't like it.

653
00:53:29.159 --> 00:53:32.920
He said, just shave it off. I said no, I said,

654
00:53:32.960 --> 00:53:36.960
you're just jealous because I've got hair. They didn't like

655
00:53:37.000 --> 00:53:39.480
that because he was border than me. That's why I

656
00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:43.159
said it. Anyway, he came and I said, wait a second.

657
00:53:43.760 --> 00:53:48.360
The thing is he suited being bored. That's the problem.

658
00:53:49.199 --> 00:53:51.440
He looked good. He would it didn't matter if he

659
00:53:51.480 --> 00:53:54.000
had hair or not hair. He looked good. It was

660
00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:56.840
a good looking bloke. And he had the right face

661
00:53:56.880 --> 00:54:05.760
structure for being bald. I don't have. Yeah, I don't

662
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:12.239
have the right face for balderedness. It's not fair. Anyway,

663
00:54:12.239 --> 00:54:14.559
he came up to me and he said, I stay still.

664
00:54:15.719 --> 00:54:19.880
I thought there was a spider in my hair. That's

665
00:54:19.920 --> 00:54:23.000
what I thought, like a little money spider. Because he

666
00:54:23.079 --> 00:54:28.280
was very superstitious and he's you know, apparently if you

667
00:54:28.320 --> 00:54:34.360
get a money spider, you was it. You don't you

668
00:54:34.440 --> 00:54:37.000
like put it you did you swing it around your

669
00:54:37.039 --> 00:54:40.159
head twice or something, and then money will come into

670
00:54:40.199 --> 00:54:47.360
your life. Yeah, he's one of these people that used

671
00:54:47.360 --> 00:55:01.519
to salute a magpies. Seriously. He once said to me, right, okay,

672
00:55:02.679 --> 00:55:06.519
oh don't because I think my hair was. I grew

673
00:55:06.639 --> 00:55:09.400
my hair, really it was. It was really out of control.

674
00:55:09.960 --> 00:55:13.280
And he said, I don't wear it that. We've got

675
00:55:13.400 --> 00:55:15.239
to go out. I said, because you wanted to go

676
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:18.800
to the petro station. He said, kind of do some

677
00:55:18.960 --> 00:55:21.360
with your hair. Said what he said? I don't want

678
00:55:21.360 --> 00:55:25.599
to be seeing in public with you like that? All right,

679
00:55:25.679 --> 00:55:31.679
So he was embarrassed by me. So on the main road,

680
00:55:32.840 --> 00:55:35.719
all these cars going fast, he's worried about me. I

681
00:55:35.719 --> 00:55:37.840
think I'm wearing a hat just to cover my hair up.

682
00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:41.880
What does he do? He stops and start He salutes

683
00:55:46.159 --> 00:55:49.119
a bird. What did I call him? Not pigeons? The

684
00:55:49.159 --> 00:55:57.119
ones that steal stuff. He actually salutes one of them.

685
00:55:57.320 --> 00:56:04.639
And he's worried about embarrassing me. And I said, you're embarrassing.

686
00:56:05.960 --> 00:56:10.440
I said, that was embarrassing my hair. You're you're you're

687
00:56:10.440 --> 00:56:15.559
saluting magpies while there's traffic. It's people on the bus

688
00:56:15.639 --> 00:56:20.880
going past looking at us, we're looking at you. And

689
00:56:20.920 --> 00:56:27.360
he said, well, what's weird about saluting about a magpie? Well,

690
00:56:27.360 --> 00:56:32.840
there's two things. First of all, you're saluting a magpie

691
00:56:32.880 --> 00:56:35.719
in itself. That's weird. And it's a kind of salute

692
00:56:35.760 --> 00:56:41.679
you were doing. No, no, ju'mb jacket. So that's been

693
00:56:41.719 --> 00:56:45.360
illegal for seventy years, that kind of salute. So yeah, no,

694
00:56:45.800 --> 00:56:48.800
I think, oh, because he walked up to me, so

695
00:56:48.840 --> 00:56:52.800
I'm sitting here and he said, wait a second, and

696
00:56:52.840 --> 00:56:54.880
I think he's a lot of money spider or something

697
00:56:54.920 --> 00:56:58.599
so or because it was in the summer, I thought

698
00:56:58.639 --> 00:57:03.199
maybe something that got the he pied my hair. He said,

699
00:57:03.239 --> 00:57:06.719
I can't believe it what I found. I thought, here

700
00:57:06.760 --> 00:57:10.880
he goes, he's gonna make some joke about you know,

701
00:57:11.039 --> 00:57:16.519
he's Daddy long Leg or something, you know. And he said,

702
00:57:17.280 --> 00:57:22.079
I've just discovered a new rainforest tribe in your hair

703
00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:25.360
and have made up like this whole and he was

704
00:57:25.400 --> 00:57:28.360
going on about how they'd like, you know, build this

705
00:57:28.840 --> 00:57:37.400
new little settlement on my bald patch, very very rude,

706
00:57:38.920 --> 00:57:41.280
and I thought, this is ridiculous, the weird thing. But

707
00:57:41.360 --> 00:57:46.519
then right get this, I'm sitting there, the smoke alarm

708
00:57:46.639 --> 00:57:50.320
goes off. I'm like, why has the smoke alarm gone off?

709
00:57:50.360 --> 00:57:57.079
I'm not cooking anything. It's weird. I go out. I

710
00:57:57.119 --> 00:57:59.159
could I turn it off? You know? I had to

711
00:57:59.159 --> 00:58:01.519
put a stick. I'm not tall enough to reach it,

712
00:58:01.920 --> 00:58:04.760
but Luke was tall enough. So I did it a

713
00:58:04.800 --> 00:58:07.360
couple of times and I was like, it kept coming

714
00:58:07.400 --> 00:58:09.360
back on again. So I called him up and said,

715
00:58:09.360 --> 00:58:12.039
can you have a look at my fire alarm? My

716
00:58:12.119 --> 00:58:16.760
smoke alarm? Because it was quite good with stuff like that.

717
00:58:17.280 --> 00:58:19.400
The way I was thinking is just take the thing off,

718
00:58:20.000 --> 00:58:23.159
disconnect it or see if it needs new batteries or

719
00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:26.519
something like that. Because this is I can't. It's like whew,

720
00:58:26.719 --> 00:58:33.280
will will continuously. He came up and I said, look, well,

721
00:58:33.280 --> 00:58:35.440
if the first thing he said is for the full

722
00:58:36.199 --> 00:58:38.960
first thing he said is it's a smoke alarm. I said,

723
00:58:39.000 --> 00:58:41.559
I know, I know what it is. I can I

724
00:58:41.559 --> 00:58:45.280
can hear it. He said all right. I said, well

725
00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:47.719
that's why I called you up to help me with that,

726
00:58:47.840 --> 00:58:50.000
because I don't know what to do with it. He

727
00:58:50.039 --> 00:58:53.159
suddenly tried turning it off. There's a button you press.

728
00:58:54.119 --> 00:58:56.800
I said, I know there's a button. I have done that.

729
00:58:56.960 --> 00:59:01.960
I've used the broom handle, I said. He said, well,

730
00:59:02.000 --> 00:59:06.719
don't use the mop handle. I said, jay Z's lost it.

731
00:59:08.119 --> 00:59:09.440
Oh that was good and the way I kind of

732
00:59:09.440 --> 00:59:16.519
connected it back to earlier anyway, Beyonce's fuming, fuman and furious,

733
00:59:17.719 --> 00:59:19.840
and he said what I said, don't worry about it?

734
00:59:20.880 --> 00:59:24.400
And I said, can you sort it out? He said,

735
00:59:24.400 --> 00:59:28.760
all right. He turned it off. He just like pressed

736
00:59:28.760 --> 00:59:30.719
it because he was a lot taller than me, he

737
00:59:30.800 --> 00:59:34.280
was about nine foot tall. He bent, he had to

738
00:59:34.280 --> 00:59:41.159
bend down to press it and it came on again.

739
00:59:41.239 --> 00:59:43.519
And he said, well, you've got something. Obviously you've got

740
00:59:43.519 --> 00:59:46.960
something setting it off. Are you cooking something? And I

741
00:59:47.000 --> 00:59:50.199
said no, and he opened his no nothing. He looked

742
00:59:50.239 --> 00:59:54.559
at the kitchen and nothing. He looked in the bathroom.

743
00:59:54.599 --> 00:59:56.559
I said, I don't cook in the bathroom, do I?

744
00:59:57.599 --> 01:00:01.119
He said, I don't know? With you? This is what

745
01:00:01.159 --> 01:00:05.880
does that mean? It doesn't matter, but you know, you

746
01:00:05.960 --> 01:00:14.920
do some weird things sometimes, Jay It's okay, And so

747
01:00:14.960 --> 01:00:16.480
I just turned my back on him. I'm like, I

748
01:00:16.480 --> 01:00:18.960
don't what to do next. The alarm goes off again

749
01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:26.119
and he's like, presses a button. At this point, he

750
01:00:26.239 --> 01:00:31.559
starts laughing and pointing at me, which is a little

751
01:00:31.559 --> 01:00:37.960
bit rude. And I said, were you laughing? And he

752
01:00:37.960 --> 01:00:40.079
couldn't stop laughing. He's like he couldn't talk, he was

753
01:00:40.119 --> 01:00:44.480
laughing so much. I said, why are you laughing? He said,

754
01:00:44.440 --> 01:00:48.320
I've just seen where the smoke's coming from. I said,

755
01:00:48.320 --> 01:00:51.880
what he said? Do you like a little tribe on

756
01:00:51.920 --> 01:00:57.599
your board patch? They just started a fire. They're having

757
01:00:57.599 --> 01:01:06.320
a little bonfire, having a big cookout or something. That's

758
01:01:06.360 --> 01:01:09.360
when I knew perhaps I needed to shave my head

759
01:01:10.639 --> 01:01:19.639
because it's I think it's bad right because I actually

760
01:01:19.800 --> 01:01:23.840
at the hospital. There was an emergency. Because this was

761
01:01:24.119 --> 01:01:27.719
in the summer, there's lots of emergencies, I'm sure, but

762
01:01:27.800 --> 01:01:30.079
there was a serious thing. And the helicopter came down.

763
01:01:30.599 --> 01:01:34.639
Everyone was watching looking at the sky. But everyone as

764
01:01:34.719 --> 01:01:42.519
like an ambulance, emergency ambulance or somewhere there it is ambulance,

765
01:01:44.800 --> 01:01:49.280
helicopter ambulance is that what they call them. So it's coming,

766
01:01:49.280 --> 01:01:52.559
it's like coming down. Everyone had their phones out looking

767
01:01:52.639 --> 01:01:57.360
at everything, and they were looking at that up in

768
01:01:57.360 --> 01:02:00.239
the sky and I'm looking at thinking, okay, well this

769
01:02:01.000 --> 01:02:05.159
is interesting. I've never seen helicopter. I've seen one land

770
01:02:05.519 --> 01:02:09.199
in the field a couple of times, but I've never

771
01:02:09.239 --> 01:02:14.280
seen one land at the actual hospital. And they're all

772
01:02:14.280 --> 01:02:18.639
looking up with their phones, and I'm thinking of just

773
01:02:18.719 --> 01:02:21.440
like coming, you're seeing a helicopter before why And I'm

774
01:02:21.440 --> 01:02:25.599
sure the people getting out of the helicopter don't want

775
01:02:25.599 --> 01:02:31.719
to be filmed. They don't want you all staring at them.

776
01:02:31.880 --> 01:02:36.519
And I kind of mumbled that, and suddenly one person

777
01:02:37.079 --> 01:02:41.760
points their phone at me, and another person points their

778
01:02:41.800 --> 01:02:45.280
phone at me, and I got about fifteen people pointing

779
01:02:45.320 --> 01:02:47.960
their phone at me, and I'm thinking I said that

780
01:02:48.000 --> 01:02:54.480
too loud, and I I said, I didn't know what

781
01:02:54.559 --> 01:02:58.119
to say. I was a bit embarrassed. Well, it turned

782
01:02:58.119 --> 01:03:02.039
out what actually happened, and they didn't hear me say that.

783
01:03:02.719 --> 01:03:04.760
It turned out that helicopter was trying to land on

784
01:03:04.840 --> 01:03:11.840
my board patch. That was very long winded, wasn't it.

785
01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:19.880
I think if I made it shorter me, Ah, there,

786
01:03:20.679 --> 01:03:22.880
I don't I do. I don't do short, really do.

787
01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:26.360
Everything I do is long winded. It's kind of supposed

788
01:03:26.400 --> 01:03:32.800
to be. So I get I get there early to

789
01:03:32.960 --> 01:03:38.639
the hot to the the farewell ceremony, and I see

790
01:03:38.679 --> 01:03:44.239
these squirrels. So there's this whole green area like trees

791
01:03:44.599 --> 01:03:50.800
and shrubbery and flowers, and it's really lovely. I mean,

792
01:03:52.280 --> 01:03:57.400
it'd make a lovely garden to walk around in, you know,

793
01:03:57.559 --> 01:04:00.440
if I was in a if I was in a

794
01:04:00.440 --> 01:04:05.079
residential care home or something in my older years. That's

795
01:04:05.119 --> 01:04:11.000
something quite like to walk around because it's it's nature,

796
01:04:11.159 --> 01:04:16.480
but it's it's contained. It's not huge, but it's definitely

797
01:04:16.519 --> 01:04:19.039
big enough to go for a nice walk. You kind

798
01:04:19.039 --> 01:04:27.719
of go in a circle. And having a cemetery there

799
01:04:27.840 --> 01:04:32.199
be quite handy, wouldn't it as well? Save traveling? So

800
01:04:32.320 --> 01:04:35.320
but I'm walking around and I see these two things.

801
01:04:35.519 --> 01:04:37.519
I'm huge and rustling, and I'm trying to figure out

802
01:04:37.519 --> 01:04:40.960
where it's coming from. Now you already know it's coming

803
01:04:41.000 --> 01:04:43.440
from the squirrels because I mentioned the squirrels too soon,

804
01:04:43.480 --> 01:04:47.519
didn't I. But let's forget that I mentioned the squirrels.

805
01:04:48.280 --> 01:04:53.360
Let's just it erase that. So I'm walking through this

806
01:04:53.760 --> 01:04:59.880
like covering. It was like a wooden structure that was

807
01:05:00.039 --> 01:05:04.039
built and it looks like it's being built to commemorate

808
01:05:04.079 --> 01:05:08.079
a specific person, and so it's a lovely little structure.

809
01:05:08.079 --> 01:05:10.679
I think there might be some seats in there, So

810
01:05:10.880 --> 01:05:15.000
walking through they're really really being careful with my feet

811
01:05:15.079 --> 01:05:19.639
in my feeting, my footing, my walking, trying to be

812
01:05:19.719 --> 01:05:23.079
calm and quiet. That's what I'm trying to say. And

813
01:05:24.079 --> 01:05:26.199
I'm not sure what I'm gonna I'm going to turn

814
01:05:26.199 --> 01:05:27.440
in the corner. I don't know what I'm going to

815
01:05:27.480 --> 01:05:31.639
see that. You know, it's squirrels. So I don't know

816
01:05:31.639 --> 01:05:35.159
why I'm even going through this part of the story. But

817
01:05:35.239 --> 01:05:38.840
anyway I turn around, I'm looking and thinking, I wonder

818
01:05:38.880 --> 01:05:43.599
if it's another gardener. I wonder if if someone asleep.

819
01:05:45.000 --> 01:05:50.159
I don't know. I don't when I say asleep, not buried,

820
01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:54.920
and not someone trying to dig themselves out noly like that.

821
01:05:54.960 --> 01:06:00.639
It's not zombies, but I wondered. Then I thought, maybe

822
01:06:00.679 --> 01:06:05.840
it's someone pitched a tent and they're sleeping there. And

823
01:06:05.880 --> 01:06:07.880
I thought, I don't want to disturb them if they are,

824
01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:12.199
because it does look like somewhere that maybe someone would

825
01:06:12.239 --> 01:06:16.000
climb over the fence set a tent up because it's

826
01:06:16.079 --> 01:06:25.400
quite it's quiet, it's quite quiet and secluded. But I

827
01:06:25.400 --> 01:06:28.000
imagine they'd be asked to leave, you know, if there

828
01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:36.000
was seen during the day. I thought, maybe it's birds.

829
01:06:36.159 --> 01:06:38.119
I mean, you know, it's squirrels or I don't know

830
01:06:38.119 --> 01:06:42.440
why I'm going for all the different particular what it

831
01:06:42.559 --> 01:06:48.480
might have been. It might have been a ufl No. Anyway,

832
01:06:48.519 --> 01:06:51.159
I turned around and I see these squirrels running along

833
01:06:51.199 --> 01:06:55.559
the grass. And because with neely in autumn, there's quite

834
01:06:55.599 --> 01:07:00.800
a few leaves on the ground already, and a lot

835
01:07:00.800 --> 01:07:03.840
of the fruits dropping off the trees, the nuts off

836
01:07:03.840 --> 01:07:07.639
the hazel nut trees. And I think they have hazel nuts,

837
01:07:07.679 --> 01:07:12.800
don't they and different things like that. So I see

838
01:07:12.840 --> 01:07:15.840
these things running across the ground and I'm thinking what

839
01:07:15.840 --> 01:07:20.039
they are? But we all know as squirrels. But there

840
01:07:20.039 --> 01:07:26.320
were gray squirrels. Now, I don't know. I think I'm

841
01:07:26.320 --> 01:07:34.400
correct in saying that in England, No is it a

842
01:07:34.480 --> 01:07:37.760
gray squirrels? Is it the red squirrels that we don't

843
01:07:37.760 --> 01:07:44.840
see anymore much? Anyway, these were gray squirrels, and they

844
01:07:44.920 --> 01:07:47.880
really matched the tree that they were climbing up and down.

845
01:07:48.199 --> 01:07:51.679
But they were climbing up and down backwards, like climbing

846
01:07:51.719 --> 01:08:00.360
down the tree forward. It's like how I like going

847
01:08:00.440 --> 01:08:02.599
up and said, how do you do that? But I

848
01:08:02.599 --> 01:08:04.400
suppose the answer would be where you need to be

849
01:08:04.440 --> 01:08:07.480
a squirrel, mate, don't you you need to be a squirrel.

850
01:08:08.519 --> 01:08:12.480
You can't do this in the same way as I

851
01:08:12.519 --> 01:08:18.479
can't walk around in Then weird shoes are yours? I said,

852
01:08:18.520 --> 01:08:23.079
bob shoes aren't weird. What's weird about them? They just

853
01:08:23.199 --> 01:08:27.560
laughed and ran off. Sometimes that's the worst insult, isn't

854
01:08:27.560 --> 01:08:30.960
it When you don't get an explanation, but it doesn't

855
01:08:30.960 --> 01:08:35.880
seem any logic behind the insult. So if someone laughs

856
01:08:35.920 --> 01:08:41.479
at my pink crocs, okay, fair enough. Maybe to some people,

857
01:08:42.359 --> 01:08:48.560
bright pink crocs look like a weird thing for an

858
01:08:48.680 --> 01:08:55.680
adult male to be a very young, handsome, particularly sexy

859
01:08:55.960 --> 01:09:03.439
adult male like myself, to be wearing in public. But

860
01:09:04.560 --> 01:09:07.880
I happen to like the color pink. I do. I

861
01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:14.039
like pink. When I was in my thirties, early thirties,

862
01:09:14.039 --> 01:09:19.760
what about thirty four, I was walking around in pink

863
01:09:19.920 --> 01:09:24.119
and white like pastoral kind of pink and white like

864
01:09:24.279 --> 01:09:30.199
pink tops, almost daring someone to say something, which is

865
01:09:30.199 --> 01:09:36.000
a bit silly really, But it's like I looked awful.

866
01:09:37.840 --> 01:09:41.079
I really did, because because I shaved my head and

867
01:09:41.359 --> 01:09:44.079
there's a picture of me in the newspaper. When I

868
01:09:44.119 --> 01:09:46.800
was doing the free paymently service in two thousand and six,

869
01:09:50.039 --> 01:09:56.760
I looked really bad. You know, I wasn't because I'd

870
01:09:56.800 --> 01:10:00.880
gone from being slim to putting a bit more weight

871
01:10:00.920 --> 01:10:05.279
on because in two yeah, two thousand and four, I

872
01:10:05.359 --> 01:10:09.560
lost weight. Two thousand and five, two thousand and six,

873
01:10:10.439 --> 01:10:17.720
I put the weight back on, so I did not

874
01:10:18.000 --> 01:10:21.279
have a six pack. So the old joker, I don't

875
01:10:21.279 --> 01:10:23.920
have a six pack. I now have a keg something

876
01:10:23.960 --> 01:10:32.119
like that. I had a whole pub and I just

877
01:10:35.760 --> 01:10:45.359
I had a degree of confidence for no reason. I

878
01:10:45.399 --> 01:10:46.720
was like, well, you know what, I'm just going to

879
01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:52.000
I'm going to wear some nice clothes, but at the

880
01:10:52.039 --> 01:10:56.159
same time, I'm going to look ridiculous and I'm not

881
01:10:56.199 --> 01:11:01.439
going to care. And some of the stuff I wore

882
01:11:01.600 --> 01:11:06.800
wasn't Maybe it was. It might have been too young

883
01:11:06.880 --> 01:11:11.680
for me even then. I mean I'm not talking about

884
01:11:11.680 --> 01:11:14.880
I wasn't walking around in school uniform, but it might

885
01:11:14.920 --> 01:11:19.880
have been. Maybe what I was. I've never been. I've

886
01:11:19.880 --> 01:11:24.079
never been particularly I've never I would say, and I'm

887
01:11:24.079 --> 01:11:26.680
not saying this in a negative way, but just from

888
01:11:26.720 --> 01:11:33.359
my experience of myself, my eye for fashion is a

889
01:11:33.399 --> 01:11:38.159
little bit shortsighted. It needs glasses, you know, it needs

890
01:11:38.159 --> 01:11:45.680
a telescope. I can't really, I never really had that.

891
01:11:46.600 --> 01:11:48.640
I've had a little help with fashion in the past,

892
01:11:49.239 --> 01:11:52.720
a few little like being took shopping to get clothes.

893
01:11:54.680 --> 01:11:57.000
But even then I'm thinking, really, you want me to

894
01:11:57.039 --> 01:12:03.239
wear that? And I remember I had like two dates

895
01:12:03.479 --> 01:12:07.960
ninety five. One said to me, because I was wearing

896
01:12:08.439 --> 01:12:11.359
I got yeah, she took me shopping, took me shopping

897
01:12:12.279 --> 01:12:16.920
and bought me some clothes. And she said, because I

898
01:12:16.960 --> 01:12:19.680
was always I was just to have my shirt hanging

899
01:12:19.680 --> 01:12:22.960
out on the outside. But this is when I was

900
01:12:23.119 --> 01:12:26.479
really slim. She said, tuck it in. Need to tuck

901
01:12:26.520 --> 01:12:30.039
it in. So I started tucking it in. And then

902
01:12:30.079 --> 01:12:32.880
the next female I want a date on, went with

903
01:12:32.960 --> 01:12:35.359
a date on, went to a date on, had a

904
01:12:35.439 --> 01:12:40.119
date with She's because I was always tucking everything in.

905
01:12:40.159 --> 01:12:43.000
From then, I'm thinking that every woman on the whole

906
01:12:43.000 --> 01:12:47.439
planet loves shirts tucked in, which is a silly way

907
01:12:47.479 --> 01:12:51.159
to think. I think it's only about ninety two per

908
01:12:53.039 --> 01:12:56.079
So this next lady I dated, she said, do as

909
01:12:56.079 --> 01:13:01.279
a favor. I said, well, I'm tuck your shirt. So

910
01:13:01.279 --> 01:13:06.119
I untucked my shirt. Now, if you do have your

911
01:13:06.159 --> 01:13:13.079
shirt tucked in and don't is a little bit don't

912
01:13:13.119 --> 01:13:20.439
tuck it into your underpants, because she was saying, why

913
01:13:20.479 --> 01:13:23.600
is it all damn at the front. Don't worry about it.

914
01:13:24.319 --> 01:13:28.520
But oh, I'm gurgling my stomachs girded. I had a

915
01:13:28.560 --> 01:13:38.159
fried breakfast this morning after the the ceremony, went and

916
01:13:38.239 --> 01:13:41.039
had a fried breakfast. So basically the people it was

917
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:45.039
there as me, there was more. There was more pall

918
01:13:45.119 --> 01:13:52.159
bearers than there was audience members. Okay, technically technically we

919
01:13:52.159 --> 01:13:56.039
weren't audience members because it wasn't a show. Oh dear,

920
01:13:56.119 --> 01:14:00.399
I'm using the wrong words. And I did that when

921
01:14:00.439 --> 01:14:03.920
I was in the hospital, kept saying, it's all about customers,

922
01:14:04.119 --> 01:14:08.079
like their patients. They're paid, They're not customers their patients.

923
01:14:08.159 --> 01:14:14.319
It's like okay. So there was one, two, three, four, five, six.

924
01:14:14.960 --> 01:14:23.640
Seven of those six were carrying the the thing to

925
01:14:23.720 --> 01:14:26.800
the altar who was the altar, to their figure at

926
01:14:26.840 --> 01:14:32.800
the front, ready for the sacrifice, so they want. And

927
01:14:32.920 --> 01:14:35.000
there was someone in church who was walking in chart

928
01:14:35.119 --> 01:14:41.279
in front. So there was seven of them. There was me,

929
01:14:44.319 --> 01:14:47.159
There was his old friend that he's had for years,

930
01:14:48.039 --> 01:14:51.520
his old friend's husband that he's also known, probably as

931
01:14:51.640 --> 01:14:56.319
baby as long as he's known her, and then her father,

932
01:14:58.399 --> 01:15:05.800
who is like ninety four four of us seven people

933
01:15:05.880 --> 01:15:10.279
working in the church. Bit whatever, it is four of us,

934
01:15:12.960 --> 01:15:16.079
and one of those was doing the ceremony. He was

935
01:15:16.119 --> 01:15:20.920
holding the ceremony because he's a pastor or. I don't

936
01:15:20.960 --> 01:15:35.760
know whatever. So we left, went to a carvery and

937
01:15:35.880 --> 01:15:39.399
had a cook breakfast. Now here's we're all in a

938
01:15:39.399 --> 01:15:43.800
bit wrong. Not wrong in a bad way. But when

939
01:15:43.840 --> 01:15:45.680
she said yesterday, all going to go and get some

940
01:15:45.720 --> 01:15:50.359
breakfast afterwards, I said, cool, I'm up for that. So

941
01:15:50.680 --> 01:15:53.439
it gave me a lift to there. I gave me

942
01:15:53.520 --> 01:15:55.720
left home as well, which is lovely. But we went

943
01:15:55.760 --> 01:15:58.920
to this place and I'm thinking, good, we'll just order

944
01:15:58.920 --> 01:16:03.760
a breakfast and they'll bring us a breakfast. But no,

945
01:16:03.960 --> 01:16:10.079
it was self service. Now I didn't realize this. So

946
01:16:10.159 --> 01:16:13.880
I go in and the first thing we do is

947
01:16:13.920 --> 01:16:20.680
just go to the bar and order some drinks. And

948
01:16:20.760 --> 01:16:23.600
I said, I think I have a coke please, And

949
01:16:23.640 --> 01:16:25.720
I think two of us had cokes. Two of us

950
01:16:25.800 --> 01:16:29.680
had lemonades or something like that or fruit juice. I forget,

951
01:16:31.359 --> 01:16:36.119
and the lady behind the cara said, yeah, it's all

952
01:16:36.159 --> 01:16:40.800
you can refeel. I said, okay. I didn't like that idea.

953
01:16:41.000 --> 01:16:45.319
I wanted a bottle. I wanted something from behind the bar.

954
01:16:45.800 --> 01:16:47.319
I didn't want to have to walk over there and

955
01:16:47.359 --> 01:16:53.439
get it. I felt lazy. I felt particularly lazy. Plus

956
01:16:54.800 --> 01:16:57.800
I didn't want to walk around when I were people

957
01:16:57.800 --> 01:17:00.600
were eating. I just wanted to it down at the

958
01:17:00.600 --> 01:17:02.720
table and just sort of stay there until we left,

959
01:17:03.439 --> 01:17:09.880
like walking around like it's my new living room or something.

960
01:17:09.920 --> 01:17:13.840
You know, it's all these people doing in my home.

961
01:17:16.399 --> 01:17:20.199
So I thought, it's what all you can me? Feel? Yeah?

962
01:17:20.319 --> 01:17:24.760
All you can me? Felt like, well, in no world

963
01:17:24.800 --> 01:17:27.840
am I going to drink more than one pint of

964
01:17:27.960 --> 01:17:34.359
coke pretty much in a day. I don't drink coke anymore.

965
01:17:34.359 --> 01:17:38.279
It's like I have a little bit, And I thought,

966
01:17:38.279 --> 01:17:42.640
I treat myself. And then she and then she said, okay,

967
01:17:43.399 --> 01:17:51.039
fair enough. She gave me a glass, and then someone mentioned, yeah,

968
01:17:51.079 --> 01:17:55.479
that it's over there. It's the pepsi. I said, pepsi.

969
01:17:55.800 --> 01:18:01.239
That's not coke, is it? And she said what I mean?

970
01:18:01.319 --> 01:18:04.239
This is someone that works beyond the bar telling me

971
01:18:04.399 --> 01:18:06.319
I asked for coke, and she points me towards a

972
01:18:06.319 --> 01:18:10.840
pepsi machine. I was like, no, I didn't want PEPSI.

973
01:18:10.880 --> 01:18:16.920
I wanted coke. I'm terrible, and I am so precious,

974
01:18:18.520 --> 01:18:23.479
and I said I didn't really, I'm not really a

975
01:18:23.479 --> 01:18:26.119
big fan of PEPSI I'll have it if there's nothing else.

976
01:18:26.199 --> 01:18:28.720
But I said, if you've got coke beyond the bar,

977
01:18:28.840 --> 01:18:31.640
she said, we've got them bottles, not on tap. I said,

978
01:18:32.000 --> 01:18:36.479
could I have a bottle please? She said okay, and

979
01:18:36.520 --> 01:18:40.359
the bloke next to me, the other what's her name is, father,

980
01:18:40.600 --> 01:18:43.279
said I'll have a bottle as well. See he clearly

981
01:18:43.319 --> 01:18:46.600
also didn't fancy going up and waited in a queue

982
01:18:47.239 --> 01:18:49.920
to get his you know, refill law to get that.

983
01:18:52.000 --> 01:18:55.960
So we got a bottle each. As she gets the glasses,

984
01:18:56.039 --> 01:18:58.720
as she starts putting ice in the glass, I said,

985
01:18:58.760 --> 01:19:02.000
no ice please. I really felt like I was being

986
01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:05.399
one of those annoying customers, and I genuinely wasn't trying

987
01:19:05.439 --> 01:19:09.680
to be annoying. If I told her that, I said it,

988
01:19:09.960 --> 01:19:13.239
I hope when everyone left, and when I said I

989
01:19:13.279 --> 01:19:15.680
wasn't trying to be awkward, then I just she said,

990
01:19:15.800 --> 01:19:23.119
I don't worry. She said I wasn't listening anyway. I said, okay.

991
01:19:23.800 --> 01:19:27.119
But again the man actually said I know I should

992
01:19:27.119 --> 01:19:30.199
be either, So she seemed to get the alp with

993
01:19:30.279 --> 01:19:34.640
that that the lady beyond the bar. I don't know.

994
01:19:36.239 --> 01:19:38.199
I mean it was, you know, it's quite a nice day.

995
01:19:38.279 --> 01:19:41.279
I don't know if it's just standard to have ice,

996
01:19:41.760 --> 01:19:44.439
but I never, and I do mean, never have ice

997
01:19:44.800 --> 01:19:51.319
in my drinks ever. It's just something I've learned, not

998
01:19:51.439 --> 01:19:54.640
since I was like in my twenties. It's just one

999
01:19:54.640 --> 01:19:57.560
of the things. I don't know. I don't They're the

1000
01:19:57.560 --> 01:20:01.560
same way I don't drink tap water. I was a

1001
01:20:01.600 --> 01:20:07.039
bottled water. It's one of my little idiosyncrasies. Maybe maybe baby,

1002
01:20:07.880 --> 01:20:14.439
maybe baby ahead you. So then all right, I'm thinking, okay,

1003
01:20:14.520 --> 01:20:20.560
well great, where's the menu. There's no menu? What do

1004
01:20:20.600 --> 01:20:25.039
you mean so I've taken the drinks down, it would

1005
01:20:25.039 --> 01:20:28.600
put them on the tables. She said, there's no menu.

1006
01:20:28.720 --> 01:20:37.800
You just go and help yourself. Really self service? What's next?

1007
01:20:38.239 --> 01:20:40.119
Do I have to actually cut the food up myself

1008
01:20:40.159 --> 01:20:42.960
and put it in my own mouth? I was like,

1009
01:20:43.079 --> 01:20:46.760
what's going on here? The world's changing? Baby? I mean,

1010
01:20:47.119 --> 01:20:48.960
I know I don't get out much, but come on,

1011
01:20:50.399 --> 01:20:55.800
it's some going there. It's like, what's going self service food?

1012
01:20:56.000 --> 01:21:04.479
I've never it just uh uh yeah. Most of it

1013
01:21:04.520 --> 01:21:07.960
was cold, not cold, wasn't hot, it was kind of warm.

1014
01:21:08.159 --> 01:21:10.079
I'm not moaning. I guess I am moaning, and I

1015
01:21:10.159 --> 01:21:14.600
really but I had a few bits. I grabbed a

1016
01:21:14.600 --> 01:21:17.880
sausage for Vinnie to bring back. He was being all

1017
01:21:17.920 --> 01:21:21.760
grumpy with me. I wonder where we get it from

1018
01:21:22.000 --> 01:21:24.159
he is he got grumpy for me, or if I

1019
01:21:24.199 --> 01:21:30.720
got grumpy from him, I don't know. I think he

1020
01:21:30.760 --> 01:21:34.399
was grumpy before he even got here. It's very temperamental,

1021
01:21:34.600 --> 01:21:39.439
unlike me. So I had I was lasting a queue,

1022
01:21:39.479 --> 01:21:42.000
so I had my breakfast. I just let everyone do

1023
01:21:42.079 --> 01:21:44.439
their thing first, and then I got a few bits

1024
01:21:44.439 --> 01:21:51.680
for me, and and I'm just like, okay. There was

1025
01:21:51.680 --> 01:21:56.680
a Yorkshire pudding, like a breakfast Yorkshire pudding, and I

1026
01:21:56.720 --> 01:22:01.479
had one because I don't think in my entire lifespan,

1027
01:22:02.079 --> 01:22:06.399
I've ever eaten a Yorkshire pudding with a cook breakfast ever.

1028
01:22:10.600 --> 01:22:14.279
And then a couple came behind me, and the lady said,

1029
01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:17.840
why are a Yorkshire put in there? And he said,

1030
01:22:18.680 --> 01:22:23.279
it's a breakfast Yorkshire put it. I think he was

1031
01:22:23.319 --> 01:22:25.600
probably trying to like because he saw that I had

1032
01:22:25.640 --> 01:22:27.800
one of my plate Perhaps he was thinking, let's not

1033
01:22:27.920 --> 01:22:32.239
just let's not making fun of this person not yet

1034
01:22:32.319 --> 01:22:34.520
wait till he's gone, nor will make fun of him.

1035
01:22:34.760 --> 01:22:37.920
They're probably sitting at home now tending their kids. He's

1036
01:22:37.960 --> 01:22:44.680
all this man, Oh cook breakfast. He only a Yorkshire

1037
01:22:44.680 --> 01:22:49.199
put it on his plate. Well they're we're talking about

1038
01:22:49.239 --> 01:22:54.399
it for years. But yeah, it was quite nice because

1039
01:22:54.880 --> 01:23:02.319
you know it's it was unusual now Yorkshire putting in

1040
01:23:02.399 --> 01:23:12.720
some egg, very unusual. So we have to dinner the

1041
01:23:12.760 --> 01:23:18.680
breakfast rather, I'm guessing at about ten o'clock, No, probably

1042
01:23:19.720 --> 01:23:23.359
half ten, about half ten we got that, I'd say

1043
01:23:24.439 --> 01:23:31.720
half nine year probably caught past ten, half ten. I

1044
01:23:31.880 --> 01:23:41.079
got here back here before eleven, No, did I.

1045
01:23:43.199 --> 01:23:43.279
No?

1046
01:23:43.319 --> 01:23:47.399
I think I got back here about half eleven something

1047
01:23:47.479 --> 01:23:49.680
like that. So we were probably in there about an

1048
01:23:49.720 --> 01:23:56.319
hour and we were just talking about uncle's sausages, and

1049
01:23:56.359 --> 01:23:58.479
they were telling me stuff that I'd not heard before,

1050
01:23:58.520 --> 01:24:00.560
and I was telling the stuff that they had not before.

1051
01:24:00.640 --> 01:24:05.399
Because I had a lot more contact with him than

1052
01:24:05.439 --> 01:24:08.399
anyone else. I was the only person that had regular

1053
01:24:08.479 --> 01:24:13.319
contact with him, as in face to face, because he

1054
01:24:13.399 --> 01:24:18.239
was always when it was like a little school kid,

1055
01:24:18.319 --> 01:24:21.159
sometimes like a little naughty boy, because whenever he did

1056
01:24:21.199 --> 01:24:25.279
something that was a bit I don't know, Okay, it

1057
01:24:25.399 --> 01:24:30.159
do something and it's say, don't tell her. That was

1058
01:24:30.199 --> 01:24:34.439
his do the other the other lady, and she looked

1059
01:24:34.479 --> 01:24:36.520
out for him. She brought him, used to get him

1060
01:24:36.520 --> 01:24:42.119
food once a month and water him, and hadn't over Christmas.

1061
01:24:42.199 --> 01:24:44.079
So she'd known him for a long time, or he'd

1062
01:24:44.119 --> 01:24:47.119
known her for a long time, about thirty odd years.

1063
01:24:49.520 --> 01:24:52.119
But whenever he did anything that was like that, he

1064
01:24:52.199 --> 01:24:58.520
knew that she'd disapprove of. It'swear me to secrecy. Don't

1065
01:24:58.520 --> 01:25:02.720
tell her. She'd tell me off, I'll be in trouble.

1066
01:25:03.479 --> 01:25:05.920
It's like you're seventy eight years old, which you mean

1067
01:25:05.960 --> 01:25:08.560
you'd be in trouble. You can literally do pretty much

1068
01:25:08.560 --> 01:25:12.359
anything you want and get away with it, you know,

1069
01:25:12.439 --> 01:25:15.840
within a reason. And just like, oh sorry, I'm old.

1070
01:25:15.880 --> 01:25:21.840
I didn't realize what I was doing. Oh sorry, he's

1071
01:25:22.880 --> 01:25:27.560
evening in hospital. It's like, well, when something happened, don't

1072
01:25:27.560 --> 01:25:31.680
tell her, don't tell her, don't tell her. It's like,

1073
01:25:31.840 --> 01:25:34.479
what do you mean, don't tell her? Well, she's on holiday,

1074
01:25:34.600 --> 01:25:38.319
she's she's she's it was her birthday today, and I

1075
01:25:38.319 --> 01:25:41.039
don't want her to be upset. I mean, this is

1076
01:25:41.079 --> 01:25:45.199
when he was given some really really bad news. I

1077
01:25:45.239 --> 01:25:48.239
don't tell her. Don't let her know, because she's her

1078
01:25:48.239 --> 01:25:52.119
birthday today and I don't want to ruin her birthday.

1079
01:25:52.239 --> 01:26:00.680
So I kept my promise and he told her days later.

1080
01:26:03.520 --> 01:26:07.399
It turns out it wasn't her birthday. Her birthday was

1081
01:26:07.439 --> 01:26:14.279
like three weeks ago, and she was I think she's

1082
01:26:14.319 --> 01:26:16.199
a little bit annoyed at me because I didn't tell her.

1083
01:26:16.760 --> 01:26:19.279
But he probably he'd like, Eve, like, don't tell her.

1084
01:26:19.319 --> 01:26:20.680
If you tell her, I know you told.

1085
01:26:20.560 --> 01:26:25.000
Her, yeah, but she needs to know you've he's only

1086
01:26:25.039 --> 01:26:26.840
know he'd known me for ten years, but he'd known

1087
01:26:26.880 --> 01:26:32.479
her for a lot longer. And I don't tell her

1088
01:26:32.920 --> 01:26:35.000
if you had it like a bit of difficulty during

1089
01:26:35.039 --> 01:26:36.840
the night, don't tell her.

1090
01:26:37.399 --> 01:26:44.680
It's between me and you. What in the end? I mean,

1091
01:26:48.840 --> 01:26:50.680
I say in the end, But like, after a couple

1092
01:26:50.720 --> 01:26:53.319
of weeks of this, I just decided just to tell

1093
01:26:53.319 --> 01:26:56.079
her stuff. I said, Oh, this is something else he

1094
01:26:56.119 --> 01:27:01.039
told me not to tell you. And it's because sometimes

1095
01:27:01.159 --> 01:27:04.439
she say to me, yeah, he said the same to me.

1096
01:27:04.560 --> 01:27:07.800
Don't tell you, so tell us A both say the

1097
01:27:07.880 --> 01:27:10.479
same thing and then saying don't tell them, don't tell

1098
01:27:10.560 --> 01:27:17.199
Jason what happened. So, yeah, it's weird when I talk

1099
01:27:17.239 --> 01:27:22.119
about I do I'm missing. It's such a character really,

1100
01:27:22.760 --> 01:27:28.279
And I nearly made a podcast episode with him, and

1101
01:27:28.319 --> 01:27:32.119
he wanted to do something in the hospital, and I

1102
01:27:32.119 --> 01:27:35.039
thought it wud be good to do. But then I

1103
01:27:35.079 --> 01:27:38.399
also knew that we were going to be interrupted continuously,

1104
01:27:39.439 --> 01:27:42.119
which is not anyone's fault. It's just you know, the

1105
01:27:42.119 --> 01:27:49.720
hospital wasn't there as a recording studio for me and him.

1106
01:27:49.920 --> 01:27:52.199
And then also I said, well, yeah, I can bring

1107
01:27:52.239 --> 01:27:55.079
a recorder in and we can do something. He said, well,

1108
01:27:55.119 --> 01:27:58.479
go home and write a script. I said, I don't.

1109
01:27:58.640 --> 01:28:01.800
I don't write scripts for these let me boy the

1110
01:28:01.840 --> 01:28:05.760
Sleep podcast. I just he said, oh, come on, put

1111
01:28:05.760 --> 01:28:08.399
your head, put your thinking head on. It's like, I'm

1112
01:28:08.439 --> 01:28:12.399
not words or gummage. Go on, you can, you can.

1113
01:28:13.600 --> 01:28:16.840
But it was like, really, it's almost like it was

1114
01:28:16.880 --> 01:28:22.279
in the middle of being rude and being complimentary at

1115
01:28:22.319 --> 01:28:28.319
the same time. So on one level saying pull your

1116
01:28:28.319 --> 01:28:30.840
finger out, just put a bit of effort in, but

1117
01:28:30.880 --> 01:28:34.479
at the same time saying you can do it. You can.

1118
01:28:34.560 --> 01:28:37.000
You can write a very clever script and then make

1119
01:28:37.039 --> 01:28:41.720
it funny, And it's like, that's not how I do things.

1120
01:28:42.399 --> 01:28:44.520
It has to be organic and it has to be

1121
01:28:45.640 --> 01:28:52.520
just go with it and see what happens. And that

1122
01:28:52.720 --> 01:29:00.319
was I mean literally the last time we talked about

1123
01:29:00.319 --> 01:29:04.560
that was just before I got COVID and had to

1124
01:29:04.560 --> 01:29:06.359
have a week off, and when I came back, he

1125
01:29:06.399 --> 01:29:12.760
was asleep all the time. So I kind of just

1126
01:29:12.800 --> 01:29:14.680
wish i'd just done it. Just I pulled it in

1127
01:29:15.159 --> 01:29:18.720
and said to him, look, I'll just edit it or

1128
01:29:18.760 --> 01:29:22.399
do it. Just talk about your life, talk about you

1129
01:29:22.439 --> 01:29:28.439
know whatever, just so that because at this point I've

1130
01:29:28.479 --> 01:29:32.960
been talking about him, you know, since he since he

1131
01:29:33.079 --> 01:29:38.119
went in there, I've been talking about him. And I

1132
01:29:38.199 --> 01:29:41.840
kind of feel that maybe some listeners get a sense

1133
01:29:41.880 --> 01:29:45.119
of what he was like, and you know, but it'd

1134
01:29:45.159 --> 01:29:53.880
be I think it'd be nice to have a voice

1135
01:29:54.279 --> 01:30:08.199
to listen to, to hear him, you know. Yeah, Oh well,

1136
01:30:08.800 --> 01:30:12.000
how do you think about that? With Luke, I didn't

1137
01:30:12.000 --> 01:30:15.319
have his voice. And I had one video of him

1138
01:30:15.359 --> 01:30:20.000
with Andre always he with Vinnie. I don't know, but

1139
01:30:20.039 --> 01:30:22.520
he was I think it might have been Vinnie, and

1140
01:30:23.079 --> 01:30:25.199
that he was there and he was like playing with

1141
01:30:25.279 --> 01:30:27.399
him and stuff. And I had some videos of him

1142
01:30:27.439 --> 01:30:31.720
with Andre and pictures and stuff, But I didn't really

1143
01:30:31.720 --> 01:30:33.920
have his voice on there. I had nothing of his

1144
01:30:34.000 --> 01:30:38.319
voice on And there's a specific reason for that, because

1145
01:30:38.359 --> 01:30:41.640
he didn't want He never wanted to be on camera,

1146
01:30:42.359 --> 01:30:47.359
didn't want me filming him or recording him. I said

1147
01:30:47.399 --> 01:30:50.439
to him, why don't we just do a podcast, you know,

1148
01:30:50.560 --> 01:30:54.239
one time, just like just a one off. No, one

1149
01:30:54.279 --> 01:30:57.560
hundred percent did not want It's almost that he didn't

1150
01:30:57.560 --> 01:31:05.199
want any record of himself on any type of digital format.

1151
01:31:05.880 --> 01:31:07.640
And it's a shame because it would have been nice.

1152
01:31:09.359 --> 01:31:15.439
Because the thing about him and Uncle Sausages when they smiled,

1153
01:31:16.119 --> 01:31:22.079
they really smiled, you know, it was a it's you

1154
01:31:22.079 --> 01:31:24.279
could say that about anyone, really couldn't, I suppose, But

1155
01:31:24.600 --> 01:31:29.359
there was a there was a brightness to it. There

1156
01:31:29.399 --> 01:31:34.560
was a real uplift to their smile that was genuine.

1157
01:31:35.159 --> 01:31:38.840
It was never fake. I never saw Luke put a

1158
01:31:38.840 --> 01:31:42.479
fake smile on the whole time, and knew him and

1159
01:31:43.239 --> 01:31:47.479
Uncle Sausages are the same, you know, it didn't have to.

1160
01:31:48.279 --> 01:31:50.560
They were never in scenarios where they had to put

1161
01:31:50.560 --> 01:31:54.880
on a fake smile. So when they did smile, I

1162
01:31:54.880 --> 01:31:57.600
mean Uncle Sosages was smiling a lot because he loved sport,

1163
01:31:57.800 --> 01:32:07.199
it's always excited about the next sporting event. Luke. He

1164
01:32:07.359 --> 01:32:13.159
smiled when it was just genuinely a smile, if that

1165
01:32:13.239 --> 01:32:21.000
makes sense. The one thing that Uncle sausages. I noticed

1166
01:32:21.000 --> 01:32:23.680
this when I was in hospital. Actually it was only

1167
01:32:24.000 --> 01:32:27.600
I noticed it, probably because last year we got a

1168
01:32:27.600 --> 01:32:36.800
lot closer the last year anyway, And I noticed that

1169
01:32:36.840 --> 01:32:39.000
when he looked at me sometimes he reminded me of

1170
01:32:39.000 --> 01:32:42.640
my Nan. His eyes. He had this sort of same

1171
01:32:42.720 --> 01:32:44.920
kind of look in his eyes, like smiley eyes that

1172
01:32:45.000 --> 01:32:50.880
my Nan had. And I noticed that in hospital that

1173
01:32:50.920 --> 01:32:53.239
he had he had that look and kept reminding me

1174
01:32:55.600 --> 01:32:58.520
of my Nan, that kind of looking up at me

1175
01:32:59.239 --> 01:33:03.760
with that smile, the eyes. It didn't need to be

1176
01:33:03.840 --> 01:33:11.640
smile of his face. His eyes were smiling and yeah, yeah,

1177
01:33:11.720 --> 01:33:19.920
So I had my breakfast, came back, gave Viny the sausage.

1178
01:33:20.039 --> 01:33:27.880
He didn't want it. He was really grumpy. He turned

1179
01:33:27.920 --> 01:33:30.800
his nose up at it was that smelly thing. I

1180
01:33:30.800 --> 01:33:34.840
don't want that. So I literally stole the sausage from

1181
01:33:34.880 --> 01:33:39.640
the restaurant for him, put it in a napkin to

1182
01:33:39.760 --> 01:33:42.840
be It wasn't really stealing, because I've been very loud

1183
01:33:42.880 --> 01:33:46.159
of it, like I can't believe I've never stole a

1184
01:33:46.199 --> 01:33:51.600
sausage before I'd paid for the sausage. I don't think

1185
01:33:51.640 --> 01:33:54.960
it's really stealing, is it. I don't think so. If

1186
01:33:55.000 --> 01:34:02.880
you go into McDonald's and you shove you got a

1187
01:34:02.960 --> 01:34:11.520
quarter pounder with cheese, fries and and McMuffin, and you

1188
01:34:11.880 --> 01:34:15.520
shoved the McMuffin down your pants, it's not steel, is it,

1189
01:34:15.520 --> 01:34:24.720
because you bought it already. So I bought the sausage

1190
01:34:24.760 --> 01:34:28.199
back and he didn't want it. He had the help

1191
01:34:28.239 --> 01:34:32.960
with me. He really was grumpy with me, so I

1192
01:34:33.039 --> 01:34:35.479
had I didn't have anything to eat, so I wasn't

1193
01:34:35.560 --> 01:34:39.239
hungry at that point. I sat down for a little

1194
01:34:39.239 --> 01:34:41.399
while and then I went to bed, had a idea

1195
01:34:41.399 --> 01:34:43.920
did to go and never lie down. So he came

1196
01:34:43.960 --> 01:34:48.399
into the bedroom me still didn't want a sausage, because

1197
01:34:48.399 --> 01:34:52.520
I bought the sausage into the bedroom with me. And

1198
01:34:53.680 --> 01:34:55.319
so when I go into the bedroom, I take his

1199
01:34:55.479 --> 01:34:58.119
food and his water in the bedroom with me and

1200
01:34:58.119 --> 01:35:00.520
I bring it back in here. So wherever whatever room

1201
01:35:00.560 --> 01:35:02.279
we're in, I make sure it's always got his water

1202
01:35:02.359 --> 01:35:07.800
and his food. And I was probably had about half

1203
01:35:07.880 --> 01:35:11.279
hour an hour little kip for about half hour to

1204
01:35:11.319 --> 01:35:19.840
an hour, maybe an hour listening to some music. Radio

1205
01:35:19.840 --> 01:35:24.439
three is my go to at the moment, a lot

1206
01:35:24.439 --> 01:35:30.840
of classical sound music on their orchestras and stuff like that.

1207
01:35:31.640 --> 01:35:38.560
And I've really kind of fallen in love with Chindler's

1208
01:35:38.600 --> 01:35:43.720
list album, the music for the movie. It's something about

1209
01:35:43.760 --> 01:35:45.079
that do Do.

1210
01:35:44.640 --> 01:35:47.560
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do

1211
01:35:47.560 --> 01:35:50.880
Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do

1212
01:35:50.880 --> 01:35:52.960
Do Do do do do.

1213
01:35:55.000 --> 01:35:58.880
Oh. It's chips. It's chips. I don't know. I can't

1214
01:35:58.880 --> 01:36:01.279
remember what the song is, but it's it's a good song.

1215
01:36:02.479 --> 01:36:11.680
And I still think the bon Jovi's greatest song. While

1216
01:36:11.680 --> 01:36:14.800
we're talking about songs, bon Jovi's great song was Living

1217
01:36:14.800 --> 01:36:18.039
on a Prayer because that was out at the same

1218
01:36:18.039 --> 01:36:20.720
time as The Final Countdown by Europe. I do believe

1219
01:36:21.840 --> 01:36:26.520
it's the Final Countdown because I used that in a joke.

1220
01:36:30.279 --> 01:36:34.760
It's kind of ruined because I've said it. But when

1221
01:36:34.800 --> 01:36:37.640
I was doing my last job, they were making loads

1222
01:36:37.640 --> 01:36:41.279
of redundancies and stuff like that, and that the man

1223
01:36:42.000 --> 01:36:45.640
who was representing the company, the financial company that just

1224
01:36:45.760 --> 01:36:48.680
bought the company I was working for, they didn't know

1225
01:36:48.680 --> 01:36:50.640
what they were going to do with it. They were

1226
01:36:50.640 --> 01:36:53.359
looking for buyers and they just bought it for the money.

1227
01:36:53.479 --> 01:36:58.039
You bought it for the probably the building and whatever else.

1228
01:36:59.079 --> 01:37:03.159
So he said, well, we're going to try and get

1229
01:37:03.199 --> 01:37:08.439
a buyer for this insurance company. We're going to be

1230
01:37:08.439 --> 01:37:10.159
splitting things up, but we're going to try and get

1231
01:37:10.159 --> 01:37:17.359
a buyer for the for the car insurance side. But

1232
01:37:18.039 --> 01:37:19.920
what we're going to do, we'll be honest with you. You know,

1233
01:37:20.399 --> 01:37:25.840
we don't know what's going to happen. And he said,

1234
01:37:27.359 --> 01:37:31.359
but we want to stay positive. We appreciate you and

1235
01:37:31.720 --> 01:37:35.439
you know all that stuff. And he played a little

1236
01:37:35.520 --> 01:37:41.119
video like showing the company that he belonged to, because

1237
01:37:41.159 --> 01:37:44.119
they were like one of these acquisition companies, so they'd

1238
01:37:44.119 --> 01:37:47.119
buy something and sometimes they just all they do is

1239
01:37:47.119 --> 01:37:51.439
because they wanted the business the customers, and then they

1240
01:37:51.479 --> 01:37:58.560
could just sell those customers to a different insurance company.

1241
01:37:59.159 --> 01:38:01.239
So he had this it's like little video, this is

1242
01:38:01.279 --> 01:38:04.760
what we do and this is you know, and then

1243
01:38:04.800 --> 01:38:10.279
he said he played some music and he said, well

1244
01:38:11.039 --> 01:38:12.720
we're going to end this now. We going to end

1245
01:38:12.720 --> 01:38:16.680
this little session because they shut all the phones off

1246
01:38:16.680 --> 01:38:19.279
and everything. So it was probably about one hundred and

1247
01:38:19.279 --> 01:38:22.520
fifty of us in there, maybe less I don't maybe

1248
01:38:22.520 --> 01:38:26.119
one hundred and fifty, maybe one hundred, I don't know.

1249
01:38:26.159 --> 01:38:31.239
I didn't count everyone. And he had this CD player

1250
01:38:31.279 --> 01:38:35.720
and he said, so we just we'll end this now

1251
01:38:35.800 --> 01:38:40.079
with a song, and what would be a suitable song

1252
01:38:40.960 --> 01:38:44.359
to end this little session with? And I shouted out

1253
01:38:44.520 --> 01:38:51.800
the final countdown? And it got a good laugh because

1254
01:38:51.840 --> 01:38:54.359
it was like, you know, it was the final countdown

1255
01:38:54.399 --> 01:38:59.560
for the company, literally because I did close. He didn't

1256
01:38:59.560 --> 01:39:06.079
find it funny, and neither did my supervisor. But I

1257
01:39:06.119 --> 01:39:09.159
thought it was quite quick of me, bearing in mind

1258
01:39:09.239 --> 01:39:11.479
the situation. I think it was a scenario. I think

1259
01:39:11.479 --> 01:39:18.359
I was quite quick, but it was ruined by me

1260
01:39:18.399 --> 01:39:21.039
telling you right at the beginning pretty much that I

1261
01:39:21.079 --> 01:39:23.960
was going to shout out it was the final countdown,

1262
01:39:23.960 --> 01:39:27.920
because I've already mentioned it. But living on a prayer,

1263
01:39:30.279 --> 01:39:35.279
I mean, bon jovid. Did they really became absolutely massive

1264
01:39:35.319 --> 01:39:40.760
in the early nineties, didn't they like huge axe rows?

1265
01:39:40.880 --> 01:39:44.560
It was like the biggest thing in the world. But

1266
01:39:44.600 --> 01:39:49.680
I still think like a prayer in nineteen eighty five,

1267
01:39:50.039 --> 01:39:56.600
was it still the best thing they did? So good,

1268
01:39:56.800 --> 01:40:02.560
such a great song. In fact, I don't even remember

1269
01:40:02.560 --> 01:40:11.479
anything they did in the nineties I don't you give

1270
01:40:11.560 --> 01:40:13.600
Love a bad name. That was also in the eighties,

1271
01:40:16.439 --> 01:40:19.119
but they were like a supergroup, weren't They are absolutely

1272
01:40:19.119 --> 01:40:27.359
massive in the nineties. Huh. And then I got up,

1273
01:40:28.560 --> 01:40:34.560
I took Vinny for another wander around the park. Oh yeah,

1274
01:40:35.319 --> 01:40:39.920
that's when we're going through the field. It's a cornfield.

1275
01:40:40.000 --> 01:40:43.600
You don't like sweet corn on a cop sweet corn.

1276
01:40:43.640 --> 01:40:52.800
They're growing sweet corn. I'm talking millions of sweet corns,

1277
01:40:52.840 --> 01:40:58.319
probably hundreds of thousands of sweet corns, maybe millions, I

1278
01:40:58.319 --> 01:41:01.880
don't know, too many to count or too many for

1279
01:41:01.920 --> 01:41:05.279
me to count. And they were like four or five fields,

1280
01:41:05.319 --> 01:41:09.039
absolutely huge amounts. And I didn't know it was a

1281
01:41:09.039 --> 01:41:13.079
sweet corn. And I saw one on the floor. I said,

1282
01:41:13.119 --> 01:41:15.319
what if someone dropped a sweet corn on the floor?

1283
01:41:16.560 --> 01:41:20.720
And I saw that what it is is someone had

1284
01:41:20.760 --> 01:41:24.079
clearly just picked one off and stripped it off, and

1285
01:41:25.239 --> 01:41:29.760
it wasn't ripe, but it was definitely a sweet corn.

1286
01:41:32.960 --> 01:41:35.359
And I'm thinking, how much did this sweet corns cost

1287
01:41:35.479 --> 01:41:39.359
in the shop? About two pounds per sweet corn or something.

1288
01:41:41.239 --> 01:41:48.119
And I'm literally walking through a field millions of pounds

1289
01:41:48.159 --> 01:41:54.840
worth of sweet corns, and it was just really for

1290
01:41:54.880 --> 01:41:57.640
the first time, it's really weird because I've never really

1291
01:41:57.640 --> 01:42:01.800
felt that way about because I don't know much about crops.

1292
01:42:01.840 --> 01:42:04.319
I don't know much about you know, what things are worth.

1293
01:42:06.960 --> 01:42:09.840
But I do like sweet corns, and I know that

1294
01:42:09.880 --> 01:42:18.279
they're not cheap until literally just pass thousands. I can

1295
01:42:18.399 --> 01:42:21.640
just put my hand out and touch thousands as I

1296
01:42:21.680 --> 01:42:32.159
walked up of sweet corns, and I'm like, hmm, but

1297
01:42:32.199 --> 01:42:35.560
I'm thinking, when they're right, maybe I'll just take a

1298
01:42:35.600 --> 01:42:43.600
few for myself and maybe the rest of the country

1299
01:42:44.239 --> 01:42:46.800
take all of them. Maybe just maybe just take one

1300
01:42:46.840 --> 01:42:51.399
and see if it's if, you know, if I'm able

1301
01:42:51.439 --> 01:42:56.319
to actually eat it, and if I am, then next

1302
01:42:56.439 --> 01:42:59.319
year I'll do the same thing and just maybe put

1303
01:42:59.319 --> 01:43:03.560
a few in the free or something. I mean, is

1304
01:43:03.600 --> 01:43:08.439
it stealing. It's taken lethally, it's coming out of the earth,

1305
01:43:09.920 --> 01:43:13.800
our earth that we all share, and it's in a

1306
01:43:13.840 --> 01:43:22.119
public place. I don't know, is it it's not that

1307
01:43:22.159 --> 01:43:25.079
I want to I mean to me, is that any

1308
01:43:25.119 --> 01:43:32.239
different from just taking raspberries, you know, picking raspberries, or

1309
01:43:33.680 --> 01:43:36.319
take you know, picking bananas off a tree or apples

1310
01:43:36.359 --> 01:43:41.119
off a tree. I mean, there's this tree, it's an

1311
01:43:41.199 --> 01:43:47.239
apple tree in the park. It's inside someone's garden, but

1312
01:43:47.279 --> 01:43:50.119
there's a fence, so half the apples are dropping on

1313
01:43:50.119 --> 01:43:55.199
the field. You're on the park every day. I'd say

1314
01:43:55.199 --> 01:44:02.479
probably at least ten fifteen twenty apple falling down. I'm

1315
01:44:02.520 --> 01:44:05.159
exaggerating for a fact, but a good few, at least

1316
01:44:07.439 --> 01:44:11.920
probably a handful a bowl full of apples falling down

1317
01:44:12.439 --> 01:44:17.439
into the park. It's free apples. What do I do?

1318
01:44:17.520 --> 01:44:25.680
I kicked them. I kicked them. I kicked them, and

1319
01:44:25.720 --> 01:44:28.640
then I forget how to say the word kicked them

1320
01:44:28.760 --> 01:44:34.000
or the sentence I kick him along because Vinnie loves

1321
01:44:34.079 --> 01:44:39.840
chasing them and he eats them. And for some reason,

1322
01:44:39.960 --> 01:44:46.880
because they're in a tree, I kind of think, oh,

1323
01:44:47.079 --> 01:44:52.279
there's got to be something wrong with them. But the

1324
01:44:52.359 --> 01:44:55.359
fact is they're falling out of the tree because they're

1325
01:44:55.479 --> 01:45:00.880
ripe and they're ready. It's nothing's forced about the tree,

1326
01:45:01.359 --> 01:45:04.000
its not being it wasn't windy or anything. It's just

1327
01:45:04.479 --> 01:45:07.239
it's time for them to fall out. And I could

1328
01:45:07.239 --> 01:45:11.000
have literally just picked them up, brought them home and

1329
01:45:11.039 --> 01:45:15.720
eaten them, clean them off first, gotri of the skin,

1330
01:45:16.439 --> 01:45:19.920
because you know, check make sure there's nothing in them.

1331
01:45:19.920 --> 01:45:26.239
But I could have had an apple, I could have

1332
01:45:26.239 --> 01:45:29.199
put more in the freeze freezer with my sweet corn.

1333
01:45:31.279 --> 01:45:33.399
Put in the freezer with a sweet corn. I must

1334
01:45:33.439 --> 01:45:42.760
have a huge freezer. I did see these these sweet corns.

1335
01:45:43.359 --> 01:45:50.399
I would say that about ten fifty foot high. Not

1336
01:45:50.439 --> 01:45:56.560
the sweet corns themselves, but the the plants really way

1337
01:45:56.720 --> 01:46:01.880
way taller than me. Maybe not fifty but probably good

1338
01:46:01.960 --> 01:46:07.720
ten foot i'd say, yeah, well taller than me. A

1339
01:46:07.720 --> 01:46:14.880
lot taller than me, and I'm eight foot. So it's

1340
01:46:15.000 --> 01:46:18.000
quite a good place for animals to sort of hang

1341
01:46:18.039 --> 01:46:20.720
out and hide. And the other day I saw a

1342
01:46:20.760 --> 01:46:24.800
bambi run through, like run right out of one and

1343
01:46:24.840 --> 01:46:27.720
then into another one out of one field and into

1344
01:46:27.760 --> 01:46:34.640
another field because they're like really close together. Made me jump,

1345
01:46:34.680 --> 01:46:47.600
it did. That's the whole story. There isn't anything else.

1346
01:46:48.600 --> 01:46:56.560
I can't see nothing else. That was everything. Sorry. Sorry,

1347
01:46:57.000 --> 01:47:03.479
Then I came home again, had those deliveries. I also

1348
01:47:03.600 --> 01:47:12.640
got a few grocery deliveries between two and four, but

1349
01:47:12.720 --> 01:47:16.720
they weren't groceries. It was but it's just like bottles

1350
01:47:16.760 --> 01:47:21.159
of water, some breakfast cereals, and a couple of packets

1351
01:47:21.159 --> 01:47:27.359
of villeage treats. No food. I mean breakfast cereal is food,

1352
01:47:27.399 --> 01:47:31.119
but no food food. I got my fridge is empty

1353
01:47:31.520 --> 01:47:34.000
apart from milk. I've got some milk as well. So

1354
01:47:34.039 --> 01:47:38.640
I with the milk, some butter and some margarine and

1355
01:47:38.760 --> 01:47:41.840
half a tin of dog food. There's nothing in my fridge,

1356
01:47:44.920 --> 01:47:52.800
loads of breakfast cereal. Yeah, so what I'll do tomorrow,

1357
01:47:52.840 --> 01:47:55.119
i'm'll have to try and get some groceries and mutual

1358
01:47:55.279 --> 01:48:03.479
food in. I'll figure that out tomorrow. I could get

1359
01:48:03.520 --> 01:48:07.520
something tonight, but I don't need to. I don't need

1360
01:48:07.560 --> 01:48:09.359
to get anything. I've got enough for my breakfast in

1361
01:48:09.399 --> 01:48:17.359
the morning. Yeah, that's fine, and I have some breakfast.

1362
01:48:17.560 --> 01:48:21.039
I have a bowl of breakfast cereal now because I

1363
01:48:21.039 --> 01:48:27.039
had a cooked breakfast earlier, cooked dinner whatever, and it more.

1364
01:48:27.439 --> 01:48:36.159
I'll probably order get some I don't know, I'm not sure,

1365
01:48:36.199 --> 01:48:40.560
but get a few groceries to get them delivered tomorrow

1366
01:48:40.640 --> 01:48:50.199
morning when I'm up and that, and then then I

1367
01:48:50.239 --> 01:48:52.359
did this recording. And that's that's kind of what I've

1368
01:48:52.399 --> 01:48:58.399
done today. Although the council called me yesterday to say

1369
01:48:58.479 --> 01:49:00.600
have I got the key? I still got the key

1370
01:49:00.680 --> 01:49:04.359
to Uncle Sausages Flat and I said yeah, And I said,

1371
01:49:04.359 --> 01:49:06.159
you're going to bring it into us to the office.

1372
01:49:07.399 --> 01:49:12.520
I said, no, that's like that's going to cost peoplebaly

1373
01:49:12.560 --> 01:49:15.119
forty quid to get them back. It's like, no, I'm

1374
01:49:15.159 --> 01:49:18.079
not not doing that. I said, you want the key,

1375
01:49:18.199 --> 01:49:21.920
come and get it. Or I'd said I can do

1376
01:49:22.000 --> 01:49:24.199
is I can just leave the key in the door

1377
01:49:24.239 --> 01:49:27.479
in the lock, you know, for you, so then when

1378
01:49:27.520 --> 01:49:30.119
you come around you can just let yourself in. And

1379
01:49:30.199 --> 01:49:32.239
she said no, I can't do that because someone might

1380
01:49:32.279 --> 01:49:39.239
come in and basically, what do they call it? Live

1381
01:49:39.319 --> 01:49:45.159
there for free? I said, well, it's up to you.

1382
01:49:45.239 --> 01:49:48.600
But and then she said if you entered it, if

1383
01:49:48.640 --> 01:49:51.800
you if you cleared all the stuff out. I said no, no,

1384
01:49:53.319 --> 01:49:55.079
because I did try, and at first of all I

1385
01:49:55.079 --> 01:49:57.399
was told that we needed to do that. So I

1386
01:49:57.760 --> 01:50:01.439
offered to help to bagst stuff up put it outside,

1387
01:50:01.439 --> 01:50:06.680
and I did. I did about fifty sixty bags, and

1388
01:50:06.760 --> 01:50:09.079
then when I was a little bit unwell, I went

1389
01:50:09.119 --> 01:50:12.520
in there just and bagged up and put about another

1390
01:50:12.560 --> 01:50:17.239
fifty bags of stuff. So I've cleared most of the

1391
01:50:17.319 --> 01:50:22.800
stuff apart from the furniture, so most of it is

1392
01:50:22.840 --> 01:50:26.199
actually bagged up. I've left about fifty bags in there,

1393
01:50:27.239 --> 01:50:30.720
and the council can come and take that. The reason

1394
01:50:30.760 --> 01:50:33.279
I didn't put those outside is because the council told

1395
01:50:33.319 --> 01:50:35.600
me I didn't need to. They said, I don't worry

1396
01:50:35.600 --> 01:50:38.840
about it, we'll sort it out. And then she calls

1397
01:50:38.920 --> 01:50:44.119
up and says, have I done it? Like no? So

1398
01:50:44.720 --> 01:50:48.520
and then the council they were here today emptying the

1399
01:50:48.560 --> 01:50:56.479
flat downstairs, and I went down. I said, I was

1400
01:50:56.680 --> 01:51:00.960
just checking. Do you want the key for Uncle Sausages flat?

1401
01:51:01.399 --> 01:51:06.439
And they said no. I said, I'm just asking because

1402
01:51:06.520 --> 01:51:09.279
the counsel phone yesterday and they said, you're going to

1403
01:51:09.319 --> 01:51:12.359
be coming around and she said no. He said, I

1404
01:51:12.359 --> 01:51:15.640
don't know anything about it. I said, okay, I don't worry.

1405
01:51:16.039 --> 01:51:20.399
So it might be a different crew that come around

1406
01:51:20.520 --> 01:51:24.600
next week or tomorrow, whenever they come, I don't know.

1407
01:51:25.359 --> 01:51:28.880
But I can't guarantee I'm going to be in It's

1408
01:51:28.920 --> 01:51:30.479
not that I go out a lot, but I might,

1409
01:51:30.720 --> 01:51:33.359
you know, I might be in bed, might be asleep,

1410
01:51:37.119 --> 01:51:42.000
I might be taking Vinie to the park. So yeah,

1411
01:51:42.319 --> 01:51:46.079
it's not that I'm going to be out raving reval

1412
01:51:46.720 --> 01:51:51.800
revol Tell me tell me I got Buddy Holly in

1413
01:51:51.840 --> 01:51:59.880
my head recently. Do you ever like sit around thinking?

1414
01:52:00.960 --> 01:52:04.840
I wonder what Buddy Holly would have done if he'd

1415
01:52:04.880 --> 01:52:12.039
been around for a long time, you know, because he

1416
01:52:12.119 --> 01:52:14.840
was young. He was like twenty two years old. I

1417
01:52:14.880 --> 01:52:19.079
think when he kind of he did his fame and

1418
01:52:19.079 --> 01:52:26.279
he was gone, and he was so prolific in such

1419
01:52:26.319 --> 01:52:30.319
a short time. Imagine what he could have accomplished between

1420
01:52:30.680 --> 01:52:39.560
by the time he got to thirty. Musically, he could

1421
01:52:39.560 --> 01:52:46.399
have been I just he could have been the big

1422
01:52:46.520 --> 01:52:48.159
I mean he was big, but he could have been

1423
01:52:48.439 --> 01:52:54.159
like but you think now, I mean he'd been his Wow.

1424
01:52:55.159 --> 01:53:01.640
So he was in his early twenties, in the fifties, sobs, nineties, now,

1425
01:53:01.680 --> 01:53:08.720
I guess, but he might have been a lot of

1426
01:53:08.800 --> 01:53:12.359
starting in this one today. Have you noticed that he

1427
01:53:12.439 --> 01:53:16.600
might have been like the most prolific songwriter of all time.

1428
01:53:17.800 --> 01:53:21.039
There's a few really prolific songwriters, but he might have

1429
01:53:21.119 --> 01:53:32.760
been the number one. Wow. I remember, like in the nineties,

1430
01:53:32.760 --> 01:53:40.880
I serenaded a lady that I met and I sung

1431
01:53:41.640 --> 01:53:50.479
true Love Ways. She said, I really, I said, are

1432
01:53:50.520 --> 01:53:54.199
you I'm not going to be rude of I said,

1433
01:53:56.840 --> 01:53:59.119
I said, so, I'm never really sure when a woman's

1434
01:53:59.640 --> 01:54:02.239
turned on. And she said, you know what I'm turned on?

1435
01:54:03.359 --> 01:54:08.640
I said why? She said, well, you know, if I'm

1436
01:54:08.760 --> 01:54:14.800
enjoying I like getting serenaded too, and when I was

1437
01:54:14.840 --> 01:54:18.199
serenaded too, that turns me on more than anything in

1438
01:54:18.199 --> 01:54:24.680
the world. I said, really, She said yeah, So I

1439
01:54:24.800 --> 01:54:30.600
some true love ways to her. Never saw her again

1440
01:54:30.800 --> 01:54:34.960
after that, I mean after I saug the song, she said,

1441
01:54:35.039 --> 01:54:44.279
I get out. I thought it went quite well. I

1442
01:54:44.319 --> 01:54:47.880
saw her a few years later, right because she was

1443
01:54:47.920 --> 01:54:52.399
like on around the comedy scene, and I said, do

1444
01:54:52.439 --> 01:54:57.079
you remember that night? She said yeah. I said, what

1445
01:54:57.119 --> 01:54:59.960
did I do wrong? He said, you liked buddy Hole

1446
01:55:00.079 --> 01:55:06.079
and you're like being serenaded. She said yeah. I said,

1447
01:55:06.079 --> 01:55:08.680
what you didn't I sung it and then you kind

1448
01:55:08.720 --> 01:55:11.680
of didn't want me if you asked me to leave

1449
01:55:11.760 --> 01:55:15.800
sort of straight away, and she said yeah. I said, well,

1450
01:55:15.840 --> 01:55:18.720
I'm just wondering for the future. What can I have

1451
01:55:18.760 --> 01:55:23.760
done different? She said, well, it was a nice song.

1452
01:55:24.600 --> 01:55:31.000
I said yeah. She said it was sung nicely. You know,

1453
01:55:31.560 --> 01:55:33.439
it's a song I like, and it was sung nicely.

1454
01:55:34.239 --> 01:55:38.880
I said, okay, So where did I go wrong? She

1455
01:55:38.960 --> 01:55:46.760
said the strip tease? If you didn't need that, didn't

1456
01:55:46.800 --> 01:55:52.560
need you to be stripping off while singing it. I said,

1457
01:55:52.600 --> 01:55:55.359
I can't know what strip tease is. She said, also

1458
01:55:55.439 --> 01:56:00.840
that attitude of yours. Okay, fair enough, So learn something new.

1459
01:56:05.159 --> 01:56:07.359
I try and learn something new every day, but I

1460
01:56:07.399 --> 01:56:10.119
don't try. But I think I probably do learn something new.

1461
01:56:11.319 --> 01:56:17.079
I don't know what I've learned today. I think I'm

1462
01:56:17.119 --> 01:56:22.319
trying to learn about myself. How do I tick? Why

1463
01:56:22.319 --> 01:56:30.079
do I tick? What I really feel about things? Who

1464
01:56:30.119 --> 01:56:36.239
am I really? Who am I really? Where am I going?

1465
01:56:38.479 --> 01:56:44.560
What am I doing? And why? So? On that note,

1466
01:56:45.119 --> 01:56:49.279
this has been quite a long recording, but I think

1467
01:56:49.319 --> 01:56:51.600
I needed to do a long recording because I haven't

1468
01:56:51.640 --> 01:56:56.319
done one for a while. Tomorrow I will be doing

1469
01:56:56.399 --> 01:57:00.640
the Q and A Friday, so there's still time. If

1470
01:57:00.680 --> 01:57:04.039
you go to my Facebook group, Jason Newland's Boring Group,

1471
01:57:04.600 --> 01:57:10.800
there's a link on my website you can leave me

1472
01:57:10.840 --> 01:57:16.840
a question underneath the image that I posted, which basically says,

1473
01:57:16.880 --> 01:57:19.680
if you any questions for this week's Q and A Friday,

1474
01:57:19.920 --> 01:57:24.000
and there's a date, which is the twenty ninth of August.

1475
01:57:25.760 --> 01:57:30.600
There's a few questions already, but you're welcome to add more. Ideally,

1476
01:57:30.640 --> 01:57:35.800
I would say try and do it before lunchtime UK

1477
01:57:36.000 --> 01:57:41.680
time tomorrow because I've got a tendency of donies. Normally

1478
01:57:41.680 --> 01:57:50.159
in about afternoon time, sometimes the morning. Generally maybe afternoon

1479
01:57:50.880 --> 01:57:55.079
because it's if it was just for like half hour

1480
01:57:55.239 --> 01:57:58.119
forty five minutes an hour, I might do it in

1481
01:57:58.119 --> 01:58:01.239
the morning, but because they longer recording the Q and

1482
01:58:01.319 --> 01:58:04.640
A Fridays, I generally I like to give myself a

1483
01:58:04.680 --> 01:58:11.399
bit of time and space. So that's me done for today.

1484
01:58:12.159 --> 01:58:16.159
Thank you for listening, and remember to be kind to

1485
01:58:16.239 --> 01:58:24.960
yourself because you do deserve to be happy. Lots of love, bye,
