00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:08.519
Hello, and welcome to Jason new Land dot com. My

2
00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:18.000
name's Jason new Land. Welcome to Let me boy to sleep.

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

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

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

6
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:52.600
boy to sleep. Hello, Hello, Hello, Hi. I can't believe

7
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:56.000
it's been fairly quiet and suddenly there's drilling going on again.

8
00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:01.039
Damn it, damn, damn, damn, it's eighteen past free. I'm

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

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

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

12
00:01:15.959 --> 00:01:18.760
this funny thing that happened yesterday. My neighbor called me.

13
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:24.519
She said, if you got some building work going on upstairs?

14
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:30.200
And I thought, cheeky mare complaining about the noise I'm

15
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:33.959
making after all the drilling she's been drilling, not drilling,

16
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:36.920
but you know, in the bathroom being done this week,

17
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:43.599
all the drilling they do downstairs. And I said no.

18
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:47.560
She said, what is some weird sound coming from upstairs?

19
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:51.719
I said, well, I might have farted. She said, no, no,

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

21
00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:03.640
It makes me a little bit self conscious, and uh,

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

23
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:10.120
to stick me by them out of the window or something. Anyway,

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

25
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:19.759
I can't hear anything up here. So I went down

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

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

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

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

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

31
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:55.319
wasn't a poltergeist, Sorry if I spoil the story jumped

32
00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:04.159
ahead a little bit there, and I well, she couldn't

33
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.240
figure out where it was coming from. It sounded like

34
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.360
it was coming from the bathroom, but it also sounded

35
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:11.439
like it was in the wall. It sounded like it

36
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:15.319
might be coming from upstairs. It sounds like it might

37
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.560
be coming from the storage room, which is next to

38
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:22.680
the bathroom. So we're kind of searching. It was like

39
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:28.400
a Scooby Do search, you know, but without well, there's

40
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:33.240
no animated characters there's no dog talking dog, and there's

41
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:36.919
no well, we didn't have anyone at the end to

42
00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:39.800
like pull off their face and say, ah, it was

43
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:48.080
him all along, none of that stuff. That's my impression.

44
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:55.240
Vin does look Vinnie does look like a kangaroo when

45
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:57.759
he's on all fours. So I mentioned he looked like

46
00:03:57.759 --> 00:04:00.840
a kangaroo because I did ature, and I said, oh,

47
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:04.360
we do got a kangaroo. Therefore, it's like it's not

48
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:07.879
a kangaroo. It's just it was out of proportioned size

49
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:11.800
wise the image. But it was supposed to be Vinny

50
00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:21.399
based upon his pick picture anyway. So downstairs we're looking

51
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:25.360
at it and we figure out it's definitely covered from

52
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.959
the bathroom, which is in the process of being rebuilt.

53
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.120
The only thing in the bathroom at the moment is

54
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:36.360
just the toilet. There's nothing else in there, and they

55
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:45.000
put a new toilet in yesterday. Now, apparently my neighbor

56
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:46.399
didn't think they were going to be putting a new

57
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.480
toilet in, like a whole new bathroom and no new toilet.

58
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:53.879
I genuinely thought that, and I thought I kind of

59
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:57.680
that seemed like a weird thing to do, because if

60
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:01.319
I had a new bathroom and they were just going

61
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:05.360
to leave the old toilet. I'll tell them not to bother. You.

62
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:09.040
Imagine everything nice and now, and then this is staying

63
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:13.600
thing in the middle. It's like, no, I mean that

64
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:21.199
toilet seemed better days. Well I say better days. I

65
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.519
mean it might argue this might be a good day

66
00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:27.759
because I haven't used it much. But what a job.

67
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:32.959
I mean, it's literally the kind of what the worst

68
00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:44.120
worstest job outside of I don't know. I'll move on

69
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.519
from that. I think we all know where I'm going

70
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:51.959
with that one. So possibly okay. So so it's like

71
00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:58.120
it felt to me and I said to you, you sure

72
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:03.600
it's not my toilet, because when I flushed my toilet,

73
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:06.399
I had some problems and it wasn't flushing and it

74
00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:09.639
was weird. But the plumber came fixed by say plumber,

75
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:12.560
someone from the council that probably does everything came along

76
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.800
and fixed it, and then someone else came back the

77
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:21.199
next day and fixed it again. And the water fills

78
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:24.839
up really quick and then it goes and it's kind

79
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:30.040
of like once it finished flushing, it's almost like it's burping,

80
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:34.480
like really like, oh that was lovely. It was that

81
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:39.360
kind of sound. Okay, I don't hear the words that's lovely,

82
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:43.519
but it is. That's the kind of sound. Weird, weird sound.

83
00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:47.079
I figured out a way to stop it from doing

84
00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:50.560
that is by turning the the and then he said,

85
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:54.399
the wet tap the cold tap on just a little

86
00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:58.160
bit so that it doesn't fill up quite so quickly.

87
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:02.800
And and it's loud. And I don't because in the

88
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:06.800
middle of the night, if I do we we I

89
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:13.120
don't flush a toilet. But anything else I say, anything

90
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:18.279
else is not that many options. As a if I

91
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:22.639
decide to mix some pancakes, but if anything else I

92
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:26.120
do flush, it's not I'm not a big fan of Yeah,

93
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:34.759
I'd like to try and keep everything. I think. It's

94
00:07:34.839 --> 00:07:36.839
kind of like at the end of relationship, isn't it

95
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:41.720
you just want to move on. It's, you know, just

96
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:47.120
like just let's just separate nicely and you know, you

97
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:50.800
get on your life. I'll get on my life. And

98
00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:54.079
that's that's to me. It's very much like flushing a toilet.

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

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

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

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

103
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.319
used to think if I ended a relationship, or a

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

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

106
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:36.000
I actually had that once. Remember a girlfriend saying to me, said,

107
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:41.159
what's happened to you? That's what? What do you mean? She said,

108
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:46.840
when we met, you were so full of energy and funny,

109
00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:57.399
and now you're just you know, like that, I said,

110
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:03.759
because not one dimensional. I didn't know about the bipolar

111
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:08.080
back then. I knew I had moods. I mean, but hey,

112
00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:11.480
this is what I was about twenty six. And she said,

113
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:19.879
you're You're not like that anymore, And I'm thinking, yeah,

114
00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:23.080
that is a bit much to kind of keep. Can

115
00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:28.440
you hear? That sounds that someone's like knocking on the

116
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:34.159
ceiling downstairs, almost like can you speak up? I can't hear.

117
00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:43.240
Can you talk a bit louder please? I? Yeah. I

118
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:48.720
don't know why I remembered that I had one girl.

119
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:52.759
One girlfriend. She left me telling me that my eyebrows

120
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.960
were too low, but eyebrows were too close to my eyes,

121
00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:05.320
and I thought, okay, So ultimately she wanted someone that

122
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:11.000
was permanently startled someone walking around It was had a

123
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:16.559
permanent look of expression of surprise. Oh. I tried that,

124
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:21.080
but it was ached a little bit. I thought about

125
00:10:21.120 --> 00:10:24.200
shaving my eyebrows off and then just painting someone or

126
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:27.639
getting well, not not caterpillars, but you know what I mean,

127
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:32.000
like and put them a halfway out my forehead. But

128
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:41.080
then she didn't like that either, so it couldn't have

129
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:51.679
been the eyebrows. I remember once, I didn't ask him

130
00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:54.639
to talk about relationship breakups. I'm not gonna I'm not

131
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:57.600
going to talk about that, but I just remember this

132
00:10:57.759 --> 00:11:01.919
is I had a little bit of I don't know,

133
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:07.879
my brain worked, my brain kicked into action, and I

134
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:13.879
got in touch with reality in that moment. So there

135
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:15.399
was this I don't know when. It was a long

136
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.720
time ago. Any female relationship was a long time ago

137
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:26.360
for me. So I'm sitting there and my girlfriend is

138
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:34.440
dumping me. She's already told me she's dumping me, and

139
00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:37.519
she settles down for the evening to tell me all

140
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:43.399
the things wrong I did and all the reasons why

141
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.919
she's dumping me, and all the things I need to change,

142
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:59.840
And at one point she was crying and then I

143
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.519
woke up. I wasn't asleep, but it was boring, but

144
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:07.840
I didn't fall asleep, and I just like it just

145
00:12:08.039 --> 00:12:13.200
kicked in my wait a minute, as my friend, like

146
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.000
you used to like to say, what's wrong with this picture?

147
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:19.679
He used to do that when I used to work

148
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.399
for him. I used to clean clean the toilets, and

149
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.600
he would like it, walked me into the into the toyles,

150
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:31.799
what's wrong with this picture? To start? If I if

151
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.759
I said I don't know, he'd go like he'd get

152
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:38.240
angry and stuff. So I had to kind of like

153
00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:40.840
have something up my sleeve to say he said, so

154
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:43.159
he'd walked me in there. So one day like what's

155
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:45.879
wrong with this picture? And I was really I said,

156
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:50.080
is it a pool? And the ceiling? Is it a

157
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:55.759
tambourne hanging hanging from the air conditioning? It's like you, no,

158
00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:58.320
I didn't notice that, but okay, yeah that as well.

159
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:05.879
I don't know why I didn't sack me, so I yeah,

160
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:09.480
So I'm sitting there getting lectured about everything that's wrong

161
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:12.120
with me, and trust me, it takes a long time

162
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:15.159
to get through those. And that was back then. Imagine

163
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:19.600
now that's got a good month. I reckon, if you like,

164
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:27.879
talked continuously about all my faults. Oh bless, and I

165
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:30.559
kind of got wait, wait a second. So I was

166
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:34.159
probably an hour into this. Okay, there was a lot

167
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:37.360
more to go. You know, I kind of thinking I

168
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:39.879
wish i'd brought a pack lunch if I knew it

169
00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:43.200
was going to go. You know, look little Flaska coffee,

170
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:51.240
so I could have a break. And I said, just

171
00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:56.679
just can I just confirmed something, said what are we

172
00:13:56.759 --> 00:13:59.639
going to get back together again? Or is this the end?

173
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:03.840
She's it's the end of the relationship. So I said, okay, right,

174
00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:06.480
I just stood up. So I went to you know,

175
00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:11.000
put my coat on, putting trousers back on, and she said,

176
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:16.399
where are you going? I said, I'm going home. She said,

177
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:20.840
but I haven't finished talking. I said, I know, and

178
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:26.799
you probably never will. It was just it just like

179
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:32.200
almost like my brain grew up temporarily. I went back

180
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:35.320
down to being immature again. But for that as you

181
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:40.360
can tell, but for that instant, the mature part of

182
00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:44.879
my brain was activated and I was an adult and

183
00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:49.399
I could see things so clearly, like okay, yeah, I

184
00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:54.639
granted loads of faults. I'll bean untold faults never you know,

185
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:59.200
I'll hold my hands up to that. But I don't

186
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:01.799
have to sit and listen to it. You know. It's

187
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:05.879
like I don't have to sit listen to this character assassination.

188
00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:11.159
Send me a letter. This is for This is afore

189
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:16.759
the internet. Send me a letter and we might know.

190
00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:18.559
I didn't even have a mobile phone back then, I

191
00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:25.600
don't think. So, Yeah, it was like, really, I think

192
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:29.360
it's the first. It might be the only time that

193
00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:35.799
my the mature part of my brain was ignited. Thinking

194
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:38.519
about it, I might have used up all those brain cells.

195
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.600
Perhaps that's why I've never gone back to that. That's

196
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:47.399
why I've stayed like immature. That's the problem that as

197
00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:50.480
I've got getting older and I start acting weird, I

198
00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:55.480
don't think in order to actually notice, Oh, it's just Jason,

199
00:15:55.559 --> 00:16:06.679
it's just JB and j you know, and yeah, h

200
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:10.960
what's that got to do with the toilet downstairs? So

201
00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:19.720
I so I'm downstairs looking for this noise, which is

202
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:24.440
weird to look for a noise. It's like listening for

203
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.840
I'm listening for a color. You know. It's very kind

204
00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:35.799
of strange. But that's see in my ears are pretty good.

205
00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.679
I mean they should be the size of them, and

206
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.399
I say, pretty good, they're not. It's not that I

207
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:51.000
can hear well, but I've got a good sense of

208
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:57.360
focus in my hearing. Give you an example, because you're

209
00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:00.159
turning into a job interview, isn't it really big? Giving

210
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:03.879
myself up here? This is kind of what I'm going

211
00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:06.640
to be talking about in this recording. This is one

212
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:12.240
of those real recordings, those real life Oh, this is

213
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:17.000
one of those what's actually happening right now in my life.

214
00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:24.079
It's not not bad, it's but it's not I won't

215
00:17:24.079 --> 00:17:29.720
be writing any romantic poetry about it. Put it this way.

216
00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:39.640
So anyway, I I remember when I was in a

217
00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:46.680
job doing in a call center. I wonder if I

218
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:51.480
could get another call center job. I go back to

219
00:17:51.519 --> 00:18:02.680
being the grumpy care center call center work. Maybe I

220
00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:08.839
could people, you'd employ yourself, reliable call answer in twenty

221
00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:16.119
four to seven moneypenny Wow. So if I put call

222
00:18:16.200 --> 00:18:20.599
center work in my local town, call center jobs, okay,

223
00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:29.599
new candidates urgently needed. There's a reason why I'm going, Yeah,

224
00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:32.400
there's a reason for me talking about this. Just let

225
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:42.599
you know seventeen call centered jobs. Wow, that was loud.

226
00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:48.440
I've actually got two neighbors, well not to one neighbor

227
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:53.279
and another lady who both worked from home, and they

228
00:18:53.359 --> 00:19:01.279
both work in call centers from home. The problem is

229
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:05.400
with that for me is in some ways, I mean,

230
00:19:05.400 --> 00:19:08.440
maybe I could do it. I don't know what do

231
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:09.960
I do on a day when I can't get out

232
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:13.839
of bed? You know, it's one of those weird things

233
00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:23.240
I can't. I don't know, but probably the only benefit

234
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:26.240
the best for me, the best and I would actually

235
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:32.799
probably say this the best and worst part of life

236
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:38.880
in a way is the people you know or but

237
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:42.319
in a workplace, the people are both the worst and

238
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:46.640
the best part of the job. I generally get on

239
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:57.079
with most people, but sometimes sometimes you know, it's weird

240
00:19:57.119 --> 00:19:59.480
that you can have ninety you can have a team

241
00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:04.039
of like twenty people, but if you got one person,

242
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:11.480
one difficult person, it can really dampen the atmosphere, and

243
00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:17.119
especially if that person's the team leader. H I mean,

244
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:20.839
when I was training my last job, there was we

245
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:24.400
were in this little training area for sales. I don't

246
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:26.519
know if they used it for other departments as well,

247
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.680
but right behind us, I think was the finance department,

248
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.920
and this I guess he was the team leader or

249
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:37.279
he was a supervisor, was talking to this bloke behind

250
00:20:37.319 --> 00:20:42.599
me like he was. He was very being very disrespectful

251
00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:47.440
to him, talking down to him. And it's weird because

252
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:57.720
I'd only just started working there, and I was really

253
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:00.480
on the edge of my seat about to turn around

254
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:04.839
and just punched that bloke. Really, it was winding me

255
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:09.839
up so much because he just wouldn't do what he

256
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:16.920
was told. Why couldn't you listen to his manager? No,

257
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.279
I really was on the edge, on the verge of

258
00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:25.839
turning around telling them stop talking to him like that. Yeah,

259
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:28.720
he's your you might be you might be his boss,

260
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:34.799
but he's still a human being. You know, you're not

261
00:21:34.880 --> 00:21:40.079
his dad. Oh you are his dad? Okay, but yeah,

262
00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:44.119
you're in work. It's not like you don't own the company.

263
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:52.839
Oh okay. Hr No, I don't know where that is.

264
00:21:54.839 --> 00:22:00.079
You ought me to go there, Now you'll escort me there, okay?

265
00:22:01.039 --> 00:22:10.279
By everyone, Love you. Urology nurse. I wonder what those

266
00:22:10.400 --> 00:22:14.000
jobs are like. Do you know jobs like medical jobs

267
00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:16.160
where you're dealing with a part of the body that

268
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:20.119
you just did it with one part of the body.

269
00:22:20.839 --> 00:22:26.079
I can understand the brain would be amiss. I just personally,

270
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:32.440
I find the brain super fascinating, and the whole body

271
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:38.200
is phenomenal really, I mean all not just humans, but

272
00:22:38.279 --> 00:22:42.640
all bodies. Just the way the system works is bearing

273
00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:47.960
in mind it's just over millions of years or whatever,

274
00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:56.119
it's grown and progressed and you know whatever. I find

275
00:22:56.160 --> 00:23:00.880
the word whatever really helps with moving on from stuff

276
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:13.400
I don't know about. So yeah, I some downstairs looking

277
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:21.119
at this looking listening for this sound, and it's vibrating

278
00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:24.759
the wall. And I realized because I thought maybe it

279
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:30.680
was a bird in the extractor fan. The extract fan

280
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.279
has been taken off, but there was like a hole

281
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:39.880
in the wall, surprisingly quiet, thick wall. I was a

282
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:46.519
bit surprised about that thick old wall, and I didn't

283
00:23:46.519 --> 00:23:49.599
because I've had that in mind where the the a

284
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:54.799
bird got into the extractor fan, and so I thought,

285
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:58.359
maybe that's that's what it was, but looked through there,

286
00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:00.839
couldn't see anything. And then it happened again. It was

287
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:08.839
like it's real buzzing, buzzing sound, and I said, maybe

288
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:14.359
it's my electric toothbrush. She said, do you have an

289
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:18.079
electric toothbrush? She said no, but I I'd like you

290
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:21.000
to think that if you ever hear anything vibrating upstairs?

291
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:26.960
It's my electric toothbrush. But do you have electric toothbrush?

292
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:30.640
I said no. I just just want to let you know,

293
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:34.519
if you ever hear anything vibrating, please just, you know,

294
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:39.000
just assume it's my electric toothbrush. She said, I wouldn't

295
00:24:39.000 --> 00:24:41.119
have assumed anything. Why are you even bringing that up?

296
00:24:41.160 --> 00:24:45.319
Why are you mentioning an electric toothbrush? I said, I

297
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:49.079
don't know. Just hearing that vibration just reminded me because

298
00:24:49.119 --> 00:24:52.160
when I hear things vibrating down here, I have to

299
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:57.000
pretend that it's not an electric toothbrush. Why would you

300
00:24:57.000 --> 00:25:01.480
pretend it's not an electric toothbrush? Because it makes me giggle?

301
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:04.799
And I know you do have an electrics tough crush it,

302
00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:11.119
and I'm just like a very very immature She said, Oh,

303
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:14.200
I know that. Can we just try and focus on

304
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:20.200
finding out where this vibration is coming from. Here's a

305
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:26.000
weird thing. My friend he was a security guard, right,

306
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:31.480
and he got told off of being naughty, and I

307
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:33.519
mean it was a middle aged man, but he got

308
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:37.079
I don't know what he did, but he's he did

309
00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:40.440
something wrong and he got told off. And he said

310
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:47.599
when the man showered at him. His bomb vibrated. He said,

311
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:51.000
he's a bomb vibrated and he said it was lovely.

312
00:25:51.279 --> 00:26:01.480
It was probably the weirdest conversation I'd ever had, and

313
00:26:01.559 --> 00:26:07.319
I never thought I'd actually share that conversation. And I

314
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:14.039
don't know why today is the right day to do that. Yeah,

315
00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:16.880
I don't know. Just reminded me. I think you talking

316
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:20.480
about vibrations. I'm just I think about that. I remember,

317
00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:27.839
you know, sitting on the washing machine with my nan

318
00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:33.599
talking to her while the washing machine was on its cycle.

319
00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:42.079
She should get falling off. Yeah, the good old days.

320
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:44.039
Because the thing is that we used to do this

321
00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:47.440
little thing. So we'd sit on there and the tumble dryer.

322
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:50.680
I mean, you had that vibration the whole time. So

323
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:54.319
sometimes we'd do with the tumble dryer. So we'd wait

324
00:26:54.400 --> 00:26:58.480
until the washing machiners was cycling. The tumble drive would

325
00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:00.920
also be going because she had quite a few washing

326
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:04.559
things to do. I'd sit on one, shees sit on

327
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:07.319
the other. And what we'd do we'd put our tea,

328
00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:10.480
put the milk in the tea, and we'd fit it

329
00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:13.079
right to the top and we'd hold it to see

330
00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:16.400
who could hold it the longest before it's spilt all everywhere,

331
00:27:17.400 --> 00:27:20.079
and I remember it went all down the brow, all

332
00:27:20.119 --> 00:27:26.200
down the blouse and down the dress. So she won.

333
00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:31.440
I had two get changed. So yeah, this is I

334
00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:39.000
missed those times. M So in the end, what happened

335
00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:48.720
is I realized the last time I vibrated, or not

336
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:52.440
the last time vibrated, but it's come definitely coming down

337
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.480
from down there. It's coming from down there. I'm pointing

338
00:27:56.599 --> 00:27:59.920
down but you that doesn't really make much difference to

339
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.000
you and you're listening, does it? But it was kind

340
00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:07.599
of like a kind of skirting board. How can you

341
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:15.400
hear that? It's a skirting board and kind of thing

342
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:22.079
in the bathroom? But would I said, I can definitely

343
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:25.319
tell you it's coming from down that area. So I

344
00:28:25.359 --> 00:28:28.480
put my finger on it, waiting for a vibration. I said,

345
00:28:28.519 --> 00:28:30.920
do you want to stick your finger on it? She

346
00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:36.079
said no, you're right, I said, okay. So I thought

347
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:40.119
I was so hoping that that that would start to vibrate.

348
00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:42.519
I mean, there wasn't enough for room to sit on it,

349
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:45.160
but I just put my finger on it because I

350
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:50.480
was thinking this, this will be it and I'll be

351
00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:59.799
a hero. But it wasn't what it was. Is we

352
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:04.200
both because we were focusing on the area, we both

353
00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:09.720
heard it at the same time. It's a radio, like

354
00:29:09.839 --> 00:29:12.359
there was a Builders. I didn't even know Builders radios

355
00:29:12.440 --> 00:29:15.960
still existed, one of these big Builders radios that especially

356
00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:18.200
I suppose you could drop out a window and not

357
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:25.359
hurt and it was still turned on. But it was

358
00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:29.480
like like that. So it was just every now and

359
00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:37.440
then coming and then, you know, randomly. But it was

360
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:40.720
right where I said, but it was it was in

361
00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:44.480
front of us. I didn't even notice a radio. I

362
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:46.319
haven't seen one of them things. And I know what

363
00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:50.759
Builders radio looks like. My dad had one, he was electrician,

364
00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:54.759
but I haven't seen one of them for probably thirty years,

365
00:29:54.839 --> 00:30:04.000
forty years, thirty years. Anyway, picked it up and looked

366
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:06.200
at it. I mean, it's a modern version of the

367
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:10.559
one that my dad had. But just turned it off

368
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:16.000
and that was it. And that's the end of that story.

369
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:20.839
That's a problem. You know. Sometimes the stories are so exciting,

370
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:27.359
the build ups exciting, and it's like a I don't know,

371
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:34.000
some kind of suspenseful crime thriller, and then the middle

372
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:42.079
part is action packed, maybe a little bit of romance,

373
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:50.640
maybe an opportunity for the characters to really take time

374
00:30:50.759 --> 00:30:59.960
to ponder upon life choices, and ideally some kind of

375
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:04.440
climatic exit to the movie. But this didn't have that.

376
00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:07.640
It just had that. I found the radio and I

377
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:13.519
came upstairs, turned it off, came upstairs. It's a shame.

378
00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:26.559
It could have been a really good story. H So

379
00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:32.799
Vinnie's just guffed. Oh I'm talking. I'm seriously. Either that

380
00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:39.319
or the spray in the fields. If that not only

381
00:31:39.359 --> 00:31:42.079
the spray in the field, Either that or they've sprayed

382
00:31:42.839 --> 00:31:53.640
the entire garden outside because it's really bad smelling. I

383
00:31:53.680 --> 00:31:57.920
hope it's him. Oh I got the window open, so

384
00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:01.160
it could be coming from outside. But no, he's aimed

385
00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:03.960
is he always lays so his bums aimed at me.

386
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:10.519
He's been acting a bit strange lately. I don't quite

387
00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:16.839
understand why he's. Well. I had a friend come around

388
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:20.200
yesterday that I haven't seen him for a while, and

389
00:32:20.279 --> 00:32:27.119
Vinnie loves him, like, really really loves him. You know,

390
00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:29.880
he's one of the few people that he could be

391
00:32:29.920 --> 00:32:33.680
the other side of the field, or the other side

392
00:32:33.680 --> 00:32:35.400
of the park rather or even the field if he

393
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:37.680
could see him. The other side of the park. I

394
00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:39.119
can't see all the way to the other side of

395
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:42.519
the field. Yeah, and I could let him off the

396
00:32:42.599 --> 00:32:46.720
lead and guarantee it wouldn't matter what else was around,

397
00:32:48.759 --> 00:32:50.920
he would run. He would keep running till he got

398
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:55.640
to him. He's one of them people. There's a few

399
00:32:55.799 --> 00:32:59.720
like that that he's got that he just loves and

400
00:32:59.759 --> 00:33:02.720
he he all that's what he focuses on, is that person.

401
00:33:04.440 --> 00:33:09.039
He doesn't like it when they leave. So he was

402
00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:12.240
stuck around for only an hour hour and half. We

403
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:17.480
were just talking and Vinnie was sulking. We went out

404
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:22.359
for a walk so he could because he was going.

405
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:25.920
So I took Vinnie out with us. Vinnie was like

406
00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:27.680
pulling me to because he wanted to go with him.

407
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:30.519
And then when I got in here, I'm just in

408
00:33:30.519 --> 00:33:35.680
the living room, I don't know, watching some TV, scratching

409
00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:43.480
my knees. I can't remember. I'm sure I was shaving

410
00:33:43.519 --> 00:33:47.359
my toes something like that, and I really I thought,

411
00:33:47.599 --> 00:33:57.119
where's Vinnie. I'm looking for him. He's not in the bedroom.

412
00:33:57.839 --> 00:33:59.440
Is if I locked him in the kit not locked

413
00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:01.680
him in the kitchen? Have I closed the kitchen door?

414
00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:04.960
So it happens occasionally he's sniffing around the kitchen. I

415
00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:06.880
close the door and I don't realize he's in there

416
00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:09.679
a lot. And I haven't got any locks on any

417
00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:14.800
of my doors, apart from the bathroom of course, and

418
00:34:14.880 --> 00:34:19.360
the front door. BlimE me, of course, well I would.

419
00:34:20.880 --> 00:34:23.719
I'd come home every day to nothing there'd be There

420
00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:27.280
wouldn't even be any carpet if the doors were open.

421
00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:32.000
There's this this kind of area I live in. And

422
00:34:33.760 --> 00:34:36.280
I found him. He wasn't anywhere. I thought, is he hiding?

423
00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:39.400
I thought maybe he'd done it, like had an accident,

424
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:42.679
and he was hiding because he was scared. Even though

425
00:34:43.239 --> 00:34:46.679
I wouldn't care anyway, it's not when I really made

426
00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:49.360
too much difference to the carpet, probably brighten it up,

427
00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:53.360
if anything. But he was in the hallway in the

428
00:34:53.480 --> 00:34:56.639
dark because there's no lights. There's no light coming into

429
00:34:56.679 --> 00:34:59.800
the hallway, so I couldn't see him at first glance,

430
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:03.480
and he was just laying or sitting. I think he

431
00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:07.039
might have been sitting in the dark near the front door.

432
00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:10.360
They didn't want to go out. He'd already been out

433
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:13.679
and gone to a toilet all that stuff. Okay, maybe

434
00:35:13.679 --> 00:35:16.079
he wanted to go he didn't need to go out.

435
00:35:18.360 --> 00:35:28.559
He was pining for his friend Uncle Eric. Hey pining

436
00:35:28.599 --> 00:35:34.079
for Uncle Eric, and I was like, come on, what

437
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:39.639
are you doing? So yeah, he was. And he's been

438
00:35:39.719 --> 00:35:43.719
weird today. He's we'd been reared the lot weird reared.

439
00:35:43.800 --> 00:35:47.039
He's been rerored. He's been strange the last few days.

440
00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:48.920
When it comes to food, he's been really off his

441
00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:53.320
wet food. But he's not off food because I just

442
00:35:53.320 --> 00:35:58.960
came to sausages earlier and he enjoyed them. So I

443
00:35:58.960 --> 00:36:02.280
don't really know what's going on. It might just be

444
00:36:02.360 --> 00:36:06.239
that time year it seems to be. I think he

445
00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:09.199
might be getting a little bit overheated. I don't know.

446
00:36:10.239 --> 00:36:17.480
I can't figure it out. I hope he's okay, I do.

447
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:21.800
I'm yeah, I probably. I am a little bit of

448
00:36:21.840 --> 00:36:35.119
a worrier sometimes, or a squeaky chair, isn't it. So

449
00:36:35.119 --> 00:36:44.039
So that was yesterday. It was weird because Monday, I

450
00:36:44.079 --> 00:36:46.800
think it was Monday or it's Saturday. I did a

451
00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:56.719
recording Saturday. Then I was pretty busy. I didn't really

452
00:36:56.719 --> 00:36:59.000
get a lot done in the boxing was on, so

453
00:36:59.039 --> 00:37:04.599
I watched that Sunday. I was in bed most of

454
00:37:04.639 --> 00:37:10.719
the day. To be fair, I didn't have Yeah, let's

455
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:14.599
call it my mojo. I've got different versions of my mojo.

456
00:37:14.840 --> 00:37:18.840
This is just I guess the energy one. So Sunday

457
00:37:18.960 --> 00:37:30.760
was like that. Monday. I really was in that mode

458
00:37:30.760 --> 00:37:38.039
of no, no, not not happening, and I couldn't really

459
00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:43.800
figure it out. And I suppose, I mean, you know,

460
00:37:44.119 --> 00:37:52.239
building work going on that probably wasn't ideal. Was it

461
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:54.840
Monday or Tuesday the building work started? I can't remember.

462
00:37:56.800 --> 00:38:03.760
I think it was Monday. So what day was Monday,

463
00:38:03.840 --> 00:38:11.760
the twenty April? Monday the twenty eighth, So the twenty

464
00:38:11.800 --> 00:38:23.000
eighth I did do I kind of so I did

465
00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:25.840
something on Saturday that let me boil your pain away.

466
00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:28.360
Twenty nine. I did the Q and A Friday the

467
00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:37.440
day before, and Monday I couldn't do anything. And then

468
00:38:38.519 --> 00:38:42.079
I had a bit of energy. I think I think

469
00:38:42.079 --> 00:38:44.360
it was Monday or Tuesday, and suddenly I had a

470
00:38:44.360 --> 00:38:46.719
bit of energy. So I ended up doing two recordings

471
00:38:47.559 --> 00:38:52.679
Monday's boring Objects and then let me boil your pain away.

472
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:58.159
Maybe it was Tuesday when I just didn't I couldn't focus.

473
00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:14.400
But I ended up doing what I did two on

474
00:39:14.480 --> 00:39:25.679
Tuesday as well. Did I that's weird to be fair, Well,

475
00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:32.639
whatever happened it, you know, I went to bed during

476
00:39:32.639 --> 00:39:37.760
the day, I woke up and I kind of felt better,

477
00:39:38.079 --> 00:39:42.000
so I got up and did something. But it's been

478
00:39:42.039 --> 00:39:45.679
a hit and miss this week, although I mean blind

479
00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:48.760
I've done two on Monday, two on Tuesday, one Wednesday

480
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:55.960
and day which is Thursday. Though I haven't done a okay,

481
00:39:56.000 --> 00:40:00.400
I did let Me Boy Pain Away Tuesday, and I

482
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:06.400
also did let Me Bore Your Pain Away Monday as well,

483
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:10.519
and also Saturdays, so I've not really I've done a

484
00:40:10.519 --> 00:40:13.039
few of them, so I can't. Yeah, I forget how

485
00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:16.119
many I do sometimes because once they've done, I forget

486
00:40:16.119 --> 00:40:26.320
about them, and as I think most people do. But yeah, okay,

487
00:40:26.400 --> 00:40:30.880
so that wasn't too bad. But I just I kind

488
00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:35.880
of lost lost it a little bit and managed to

489
00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:40.360
get it back. So that's good. But then something happened

490
00:40:40.400 --> 00:40:48.960
today which is thrown me a little bit. Yesterday was weird.

491
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:52.280
I had someone ask me for money. I had two

492
00:40:52.320 --> 00:40:58.599
people asked to borrow money yesterday. So that was that

493
00:40:58.840 --> 00:41:03.719
sets me back emotionally. It does because that just takes

494
00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:07.159
me back to reminds me of the last ten years

495
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:13.519
of being completely take advantage of by so many different

496
00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:17.159
people people borrow money not paying it back, and how

497
00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:20.079
upsetting that is, and it reminds me of then it

498
00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:24.719
reminds me of my friend and yeah, so I'm getting heavy.

499
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:28.280
But yeah, so that was quite upsetting. Not at the time,

500
00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:38.159
but afterwards there's like a okay. And also I was

501
00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:41.559
looking through some of the messages I've got from a

502
00:41:41.599 --> 00:41:44.519
particular person that's been asking for money since the summer,

503
00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:50.079
and some of this, some of the I can't read it.

504
00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:52.559
One day I will read them out. I can't now,

505
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:57.599
but there's I might read them out one day. But

506
00:42:00.239 --> 00:42:09.039
it's just really strange how people can sometimes use manipulative tactics,

507
00:42:09.079 --> 00:42:15.880
you know, it's like really knowing how I don't know.

508
00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:26.440
I don't if it's weak or susceptible, gullible, I don't know.

509
00:42:26.719 --> 00:42:29.320
I'm kind of one of these people will explain how

510
00:42:29.360 --> 00:42:32.239
I am now and one of these people. This is

511
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:38.320
what I'm like. I like to think that people are

512
00:42:38.360 --> 00:42:43.000
just telling me the truth. And I don't want to

513
00:42:43.039 --> 00:42:46.159
live a life where I'm just assuming that everyone's lying

514
00:42:46.199 --> 00:42:49.800
to me, because I don't think that's a nice just

515
00:42:49.880 --> 00:42:53.320
a nice It's not a nice way to be experiencing

516
00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:59.679
the day. I don't think you know, no, in reality,

517
00:42:59.840 --> 00:43:03.280
not everyone's telling the truth. And I mean in these recordings,

518
00:43:03.320 --> 00:43:08.840
I tell a lot of porkies, but I would assume

519
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:13.039
most of it's obvious that I'm not telling the truth

520
00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:16.639
and I'm just making stuff up. But that's the more

521
00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:21.559
kind of weird stuff I've just come out of. I

522
00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:24.320
had that job on there, or just come out of

523
00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:30.480
the Oh the internet annoys me sometimes. I nearly booked

524
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:36.400
an appointment with Specsavers yesterday, but luckily I didn't because okay,

525
00:43:36.400 --> 00:43:39.039
here's what happened. I've got a letter, got a letter

526
00:43:39.400 --> 00:43:41.719
and straight away it was in a brown envelope, and

527
00:43:41.719 --> 00:43:46.280
I thought, oh no, no, no, no, no no, never

528
00:43:46.280 --> 00:43:50.679
a good sign, never a good sign. And it was

529
00:43:50.760 --> 00:44:03.400
from the DWP, which is Department of Something Welfare Pensions

530
00:44:03.519 --> 00:44:10.440
dw Working Pensions, Department of Working Pensions DWP, and that's

531
00:44:10.480 --> 00:44:16.719
the department that you get away benefits from. So they

532
00:44:16.760 --> 00:44:20.679
are from the I think July. I think it's something

533
00:44:20.719 --> 00:44:24.159
like the twenty first or the eleventh or something of July.

534
00:44:24.800 --> 00:44:30.000
My benefits stop and I have to apply for a

535
00:44:30.039 --> 00:44:34.719
different type of benefit, which is called universal credit. Because

536
00:44:34.760 --> 00:44:43.039
I'm still on the old benefits and technically I was

537
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:46.519
told that I would have been changed over in twenty twenty,

538
00:44:47.159 --> 00:44:49.440
so it's a little bit late. So I've probably done

539
00:44:49.480 --> 00:44:55.039
all right, I guess, But I knew. I have got

540
00:44:56.199 --> 00:44:59.719
a local neighbor who's also about three or four weeks

541
00:44:59.760 --> 00:45:02.880
maybe a couple of months ago, she had hers come through,

542
00:45:03.559 --> 00:45:07.920
so I kind of was expecting it, but I thought

543
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:12.079
maybe because I knew, I knew it was getting closer

544
00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:15.280
to the the deadline of when they were going to

545
00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:20.920
make everyone swap over. So the difference, I'll tell you

546
00:45:20.920 --> 00:45:29.840
the difference, just in case you're interested. WD difference between

547
00:45:33.639 --> 00:45:44.039
you you see and yes, okay, so difference new style

548
00:45:44.239 --> 00:45:49.320
Employment Support Allowance twenty sixteen. That's the one I'm on now.

549
00:45:49.480 --> 00:45:54.159
It was a new back then. What universal credit is?

550
00:45:54.440 --> 00:45:59.800
This is from the Sisters Citizens Advice dot org dot

551
00:46:00.159 --> 00:46:07.960
UK so to see cure. It's called CSA Citizens Advice

552
00:46:08.599 --> 00:46:11.639
Bureau c a B used to be called now according

553
00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:18.079
to c A, Okay, unless this isn't the Citizens Advice Bureau,

554
00:46:18.519 --> 00:46:22.679
that might be a separate website. What is universal credit?

555
00:46:23.679 --> 00:46:30.119
This advice applies to England. So universal credit has replaced

556
00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:34.559
these benefits for most people housing benefit. So this is

557
00:46:34.559 --> 00:46:37.000
what it's said in my letter as well. So my

558
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:39.920
benefits that are going to get are going to cancel

559
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:49.159
in July, Housing Benefit, income Related Employment Support Allowance e SA,

560
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:56.440
income Based job Seekers Allowance JSA, Child Text Credit, Working

561
00:46:56.519 --> 00:46:59.639
Text Credit, and income support. So I'm on e SA

562
00:46:59.800 --> 00:47:06.320
and Housing Benefit. You might be able to get Universal

563
00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:09.239
Credit if you're not working or you're on a low

564
00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:14.920
in come. Universal Credit works differently from the old benefits,

565
00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:19.079
so important. It's important to know the differences to be fair.

566
00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:21.400
I don't know much about the differences, so let's have

567
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:26.920
a look. The biggest differences are you can get Universal

568
00:47:26.960 --> 00:47:32.719
Credit if you're unemployed, but also if you're working. Okay,

569
00:47:33.800 --> 00:47:36.440
I'm guessing that's based on how much you work you're earning,

570
00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:39.280
So if you're on a low wage, would that mean

571
00:47:39.320 --> 00:47:43.480
if you're unemployed you can still get it. You'll usually

572
00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:49.360
get a single payment each month rather than weekly or fortnightly,

573
00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:53.199
So mine's fortnightly at the moment, so it's going to

574
00:47:53.280 --> 00:47:56.679
end up being once a month instead of getting a

575
00:47:56.760 --> 00:48:01.159
separate housing benefit. Your rent will usually be paid directly

576
00:48:01.239 --> 00:48:05.360
to you as part of your monthly universal credit repayment

577
00:48:06.199 --> 00:48:11.679
or payment that I don't like. I'll be honest with you.

578
00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:15.840
I've got a few friends that have got all well

579
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:21.760
behind on their on their rent because when you get

580
00:48:21.800 --> 00:48:26.599
that in your money and the bank just takes stuff

581
00:48:26.599 --> 00:48:32.320
out because you've got debts or whatever. And the housing

582
00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:35.679
benefit are pretty good. The council are pretty good. They'll

583
00:48:35.719 --> 00:48:38.400
do they really go out their way to help you.

584
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:40.440
They're not They're not in the habit of just kicking

585
00:48:40.480 --> 00:48:43.800
people out as soon as they can at the moment. Anyway,

586
00:48:44.159 --> 00:48:49.119
that might change in the future. I don't know. I'm

587
00:48:49.159 --> 00:48:51.599
an our half expect to like walk out one day

588
00:48:51.639 --> 00:48:53.440
and I be a que people just waiting to move

589
00:48:53.480 --> 00:49:06.719
in seeing if I'm break any rules rules. So I'm

590
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:11.159
going to request because I think you can if you're

591
00:49:11.199 --> 00:49:14.280
no good with money, and I've proved that I'm really

592
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:18.440
not very good. I'm not great with money. To be honest,

593
00:49:21.480 --> 00:49:25.880
I prefer the rent to go directly to the landlord

594
00:49:26.000 --> 00:49:28.960
rather than give me because my rent's one hundred and

595
00:49:28.960 --> 00:49:32.599
four pounds a week, which is very low for a flat,

596
00:49:35.320 --> 00:49:39.599
but that's four hundred I don't know how much that

597
00:49:39.679 --> 00:49:43.199
is a month. Five hundred four hundred and whatever a

598
00:49:43.239 --> 00:49:48.360
month four hundred and twenty is it, I don't know.

599
00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:54.280
So you usually get one one monthly payment to cover

600
00:49:54.679 --> 00:49:59.920
your living costs. If you claim Universal Credit as a couple,

601
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:04.360
you and your partner will get one payment between the

602
00:50:04.400 --> 00:50:12.119
two of you. That doesn't seem fair, I can understand

603
00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:20.400
in a way. I mean the rents. The rent's going

604
00:50:20.480 --> 00:50:22.360
to be the same, like if you live in a

605
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:25.480
one bedch and flat. If I had a girlfriend here

606
00:50:26.039 --> 00:50:28.960
living with me, the rent is going to be the same.

607
00:50:31.199 --> 00:50:35.440
The council tax will be higher because I get a

608
00:50:35.519 --> 00:50:39.760
twenty five percent discount or whatever because of being on

609
00:50:42.039 --> 00:50:48.480
being single person. I would then, but the bills are

610
00:50:48.519 --> 00:50:50.800
going to be higher, but probably not a huge amount

611
00:50:50.960 --> 00:50:54.639
to be fair. But because the heating won't be any higher,

612
00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:58.079
the water will be a little bit higher, but there

613
00:50:58.079 --> 00:51:02.239
won't be a lot in it. I don't think food's

614
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:05.679
going to be higher, I imagine, But maybe you can

615
00:51:05.719 --> 00:51:08.039
get get away with the same amount of money for

616
00:51:08.079 --> 00:51:11.039
two as for one. That doesn't really make sense to me.

617
00:51:11.119 --> 00:51:21.159
But yeah, but it doesn't, Yeah, it doesn't. That just

618
00:51:21.440 --> 00:51:24.519
kind of doesn't seem fair that someone should get less

619
00:51:24.559 --> 00:51:31.280
just because of living with someone anyway. It doesn't apply

620
00:51:31.440 --> 00:51:43.320
to me because I've even't got a girlfriend. R. You'll

621
00:51:43.440 --> 00:51:47.119
usually get one payment, okay. The payment is made up

622
00:51:47.199 --> 00:51:53.599
of a basic standard allowance and extra payments that might

623
00:51:53.679 --> 00:52:00.440
apply to you, depending on the circumstanceive you. You might

624
00:52:00.519 --> 00:52:05.559
be able to get extra payments if you look after

625
00:52:05.800 --> 00:52:09.239
one or more children, which I do not. I got

626
00:52:09.320 --> 00:52:17.519
Vinny work and pay for childcare. No need help with

627
00:52:17.880 --> 00:52:24.239
housing costs? No, not other than the rent. Are disabled

628
00:52:24.400 --> 00:52:28.840
or have a health condition. I am class of disabled

629
00:52:28.920 --> 00:52:36.000
due to my mental disability. Are a care for a

630
00:52:36.199 --> 00:52:43.719
disabled person, or have a disabled child? No, if you

631
00:52:44.000 --> 00:52:50.320
get help with rent, if your Universal Credit payment includes

632
00:52:50.360 --> 00:52:54.960
help with rent, I suppose that depends if you're working

633
00:52:55.000 --> 00:52:56.840
or not. I guess if you're working, it wouldn't, would

634
00:52:56.840 --> 00:53:01.039
I suppose. I don't know. You'll usually need to pay

635
00:53:01.079 --> 00:53:05.880
your landlord each month from your Universal Credit payment, even

636
00:53:06.079 --> 00:53:10.920
if you live in social housing. See that. I don't know.

637
00:53:12.079 --> 00:53:15.559
It doesn't There might be a way around that. I

638
00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:23.039
don't know. I'm not sure you can ask a DWP

639
00:53:23.199 --> 00:53:25.719
to pay your rent directly to your landlord if you're

640
00:53:25.760 --> 00:53:29.199
in debt, have rentes, or are struggling with money, so

641
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:34.679
I will do that. I'll just say, look, nah, pay

642
00:53:34.719 --> 00:53:38.480
it to them. Don't be giving me one hundred and

643
00:53:38.480 --> 00:53:41.239
four pounds a week. I'll only go and spend it

644
00:53:41.320 --> 00:53:46.039
on chocolate. If you're working, you can work, so you

645
00:53:46.039 --> 00:53:49.559
can work and still get Universal credit. Your Universe credit

646
00:53:49.599 --> 00:53:54.280
will reduce gradually as you earn more. Your Universal credit

647
00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:57.960
will go up if your job ends or you earn less.

648
00:54:00.280 --> 00:54:05.440
If your self employed, your payment might also be affected

649
00:54:06.280 --> 00:54:13.239
by how much the DWP expects you to earn each month.

650
00:54:14.239 --> 00:54:23.119
This expected I've got it. H my eye. Oh unfortunately

651
00:54:23.119 --> 00:54:25.599
I can't see the screen. Now I can see the screen,

652
00:54:25.719 --> 00:54:30.800
just not the writing this expects. This expected amount is

653
00:54:30.880 --> 00:54:36.880
called your minimum income floor. Find out how the minimum

654
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:43.559
income floor works and if it applies to you. Next

655
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:50.119
claiming other benefits. If you get Universal credits, you should

656
00:54:50.159 --> 00:54:55.760
apply for council tax reduction. If you get it, it

657
00:54:55.840 --> 00:54:59.559
won't reduce the amount of Universal Credit you get. So

658
00:54:59.760 --> 00:55:02.400
I'm on account of tax reduction? So will that not

659
00:55:02.519 --> 00:55:09.719
just continue? They have to make things so communicated. If

660
00:55:09.719 --> 00:55:12.719
you're disabled, you should check if you're eligible for a

661
00:55:12.840 --> 00:55:19.920
Personal Independence Payments PIP. If you're responsible for a disabled child,

662
00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:24.000
you should check if you can claim Disability Living Allowance

663
00:55:24.159 --> 00:55:29.119
DLA for your child. Get in PIP or DLA won't

664
00:55:29.239 --> 00:55:35.039
reduce the amount of Universal Credits you get, and they're

665
00:55:35.079 --> 00:55:39.320
trying to by the government are really trying to crack

666
00:55:39.440 --> 00:55:45.000
down on personal independence personal independent payments to reduce it,

667
00:55:46.440 --> 00:55:49.000
like really to get as many people off that as possible.

668
00:55:49.039 --> 00:55:52.920
As well, you can also claim other benefits if you

669
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:59.159
have enough National Insurance contributions. For example, if you're unemployed,

670
00:55:59.639 --> 00:56:03.280
check it if you can claim contribution based based job

671
00:56:03.320 --> 00:56:14.920
Seekers Allowance JSA also called New style JSA. No, if

672
00:56:14.960 --> 00:56:18.559
you can't work because of illness or disability, check if

673
00:56:18.639 --> 00:56:29.400
you can claim contribution based Employment and Support allowance. But

674
00:56:29.480 --> 00:56:35.119
that's what I'm on, so that makes no sense to

675
00:56:35.239 --> 00:56:41.880
get moving me away from that. This is claiming other benefits.

676
00:56:41.880 --> 00:56:45.559
If you get Universal Credit, check if you can conclaim

677
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:51.199
contribution based Employment and Support Allowance ESA also called New

678
00:56:51.239 --> 00:56:55.159
style essay. If you get either of these benefits, your

679
00:56:55.280 --> 00:56:59.559
Universal Credit will be reduced, but there are reasons it's

680
00:56:59.559 --> 00:57:05.039
still claiming them. For example, Universal Credit is paid once

681
00:57:05.199 --> 00:57:09.679
a month, but JSA and ESA are paid every two weeks.

682
00:57:10.039 --> 00:57:13.760
This might make it easier to manage your money right there.

683
00:57:14.400 --> 00:57:17.679
See they know it's easy to manage money if you

684
00:57:17.719 --> 00:57:21.880
get paid every two weeks. Yeah, they're paying every month.

685
00:57:24.280 --> 00:57:29.159
Horace has just come back. Horace is gone. He hears

686
00:57:29.199 --> 00:57:31.079
his name as soon as he hears his name's gone,

687
00:57:34.639 --> 00:57:42.760
I said, Horace turned around, flapdoy. Applying for new style

688
00:57:43.159 --> 00:57:48.880
ESSA check if you can claim contribute based so changes

689
00:57:48.920 --> 00:57:53.840
from ESA rules from twoenty twenty eight. On the eighteenth

690
00:57:53.880 --> 00:57:59.440
of March two thousand and twenty five, the government announced

691
00:57:59.559 --> 00:58:05.599
changes to how some types of ESA are paid. These

692
00:58:05.719 --> 00:58:09.679
changes would not happen until two thousand and twenty eight.

693
00:58:11.119 --> 00:58:15.199
If you're thinking of applying for new style ESSAY, you should.

694
00:58:16.159 --> 00:58:19.679
You're more likely to get ESA if you apply before

695
00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:28.760
the rules change. Okay, you can get ESA at the

696
00:58:28.800 --> 00:58:32.719
same time as other benefits like PIP, but you can't

697
00:58:33.000 --> 00:58:35.480
usually get ESSAY at the same time as job seekers

698
00:58:35.519 --> 00:58:42.079
Allowance or income support. If you're employed but you can't work,

699
00:58:42.199 --> 00:58:47.159
you usually get statutory SSP. Statutary can't say that word

700
00:58:47.599 --> 00:58:54.280
statutor statuttery. I just started coughing in I realized, I

701
00:58:54.320 --> 00:58:56.320
think one of the reason I'm coughing is because Vinnie

702
00:58:56.519 --> 00:59:01.920
is He's peeling or whatever you want to call it.

703
00:59:01.960 --> 00:59:05.159
Is hairs just coming off there everywhere, and I've got

704
00:59:05.199 --> 00:59:07.760
them all over my desk. It's little hairs. I think

705
00:59:07.760 --> 00:59:12.280
they might be getting Hello, darling, I'm not saying all

706
00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:20.199
loo to the hairs. I'm talking to Vinnie Ivan, Okay. Anyway, So,

707
00:59:21.639 --> 00:59:26.559
if you're employed but you can't work, you usually get

708
00:59:26.639 --> 00:59:37.360
statutter ary statute statutory statutory sick pay from your employer

709
00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:39.840
for twenty eight weeks. You can't get SSP and the

710
00:59:39.960 --> 00:59:43.320
essay at the same time that you can start your

711
00:59:43.480 --> 00:59:46.199
essay claim fuck up to three months before you're SSP

712
00:59:46.920 --> 00:59:52.440
on bored with that. If you've been told to claim

713
00:59:52.519 --> 00:59:55.360
Universe of credit by a certain date, yes I have.

714
00:59:56.239 --> 00:59:59.920
The Department for Working Pensions are stopping some people's benefits

715
01:00:00.159 --> 01:00:06.039
telling them to claim Universe or credit instead. Guilty, guilty me,

716
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:09.599
have done it to me. If you get a letter

717
01:00:09.719 --> 01:00:12.679
telling you to claim Universe credit by a certain deadline,

718
01:00:12.800 --> 01:00:16.920
this is a migration notice. It's weird that I would

719
01:00:17.000 --> 01:00:23.079
use a word like that. You should claim universal credit

720
01:00:23.159 --> 01:00:26.760
by the deadline. In the migration notice, your old benefits

721
01:00:26.800 --> 01:00:31.239
will stop after the deadline. You might miss out on

722
01:00:31.360 --> 01:00:36.239
some money if you apply it after the deadline. See,

723
01:00:36.280 --> 01:00:41.000
this is weird. So they're saying, oh, the new essay

724
01:00:43.719 --> 01:00:46.719
now and the changes one hand to twenty twenty eight.

725
01:00:46.800 --> 01:00:50.679
But it's only twenty twenty five now. I think they're

726
01:00:50.679 --> 01:00:55.559
making apps they go along, check what you should do

727
01:00:55.559 --> 01:00:58.000
if you get a migration notice. So this is what

728
01:00:58.079 --> 01:01:03.440
I got today, an immigration notice. They are called legacy benefits,

729
01:01:04.599 --> 01:01:07.960
and so university credit to replace an older benefits. I've

730
01:01:07.960 --> 01:01:13.039
already this is what I started on, isn't it If

731
01:01:13.079 --> 01:01:15.920
your letter doesn't have a deadline, it's not on migration notice.

732
01:01:16.119 --> 01:01:19.280
You don't have to claim universal credit unless you want to.

733
01:01:20.199 --> 01:01:22.679
Even if the letter says you'll have to claim universal

734
01:01:22.719 --> 01:01:26.480
credit in the future, why are you begging it forth?

735
01:01:26.519 --> 01:01:29.360
Then you got your dinner down there, why don't you

736
01:01:29.400 --> 01:01:35.440
eat that? So they're basically, yeah, I've got a deadline

737
01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:39.760
of mine. So they've given me what was it now,

738
01:01:40.480 --> 01:01:45.239
May June, So yeah, beginning of May, beginning of June,

739
01:01:45.400 --> 01:01:52.760
beginning of July, two months, two and a little bit months.

740
01:01:53.559 --> 01:02:04.239
So I filled it in today. Ah, it's weird. So

741
01:02:04.360 --> 01:02:08.840
I got I don't know how long it takes for

742
01:02:08.880 --> 01:02:11.480
the money to come through. That's what. That's what I'm thinking.

743
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:16.320
How long have I got got got go? Because when

744
01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:21.360
I signed on before it took or it took it

745
01:02:21.440 --> 01:02:29.000
for about four or five weeks maybe before I got anything,

746
01:02:31.320 --> 01:02:36.800
and then I only got very very basic minimum and

747
01:02:36.840 --> 01:02:52.440
it wasn't until oh yeah, it was quite a long time,

748
01:02:52.679 --> 01:02:56.760
quite a good few good quite a few months that

749
01:02:56.840 --> 01:03:00.599
I got paid. The back payment because of back payment

750
01:03:00.639 --> 01:03:02.960
was something like two and a half grand, maybe three

751
01:03:03.079 --> 01:03:06.119
thousand pounds. So it just shows you how long I

752
01:03:06.159 --> 01:03:08.760
was weighing. I think it was like maybe nine months,

753
01:03:08.760 --> 01:03:12.519
ten months, nine months, I don't know. So I got

754
01:03:12.559 --> 01:03:16.880
that and then I went on to its normal amount,

755
01:03:19.639 --> 01:03:22.280
so I don't know what. Quite, I don't know how

756
01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:26.679
it works from that perspective, so I filled the ford

757
01:03:26.800 --> 01:03:35.519
or lied at the very end. This was very strange.

758
01:03:36.559 --> 01:03:43.280
I just it threw me off a bit. Let me say,

759
01:03:43.280 --> 01:03:45.400
if I log into this and I actually i'll show

760
01:03:45.599 --> 01:03:47.760
why I show it to you, but I'll read it

761
01:03:47.800 --> 01:03:55.800
out here because I was surprised at this. Create an account,

762
01:03:55.840 --> 01:03:57.960
I want to create an account. I want to log

763
01:03:58.039 --> 01:04:04.920
into my account, kah create oh, sign into you? Why

764
01:04:04.960 --> 01:04:20.199
have they got to make things difficult? That's weird. H okay,

765
01:04:20.320 --> 01:04:24.920
so use a name. What's my user name? I know

766
01:04:25.039 --> 01:04:45.159
what it is, and please give me more money. Okay,

767
01:04:46.519 --> 01:05:02.679
now my that that was my noon. Oh unless it's

768
01:04:59.760 --> 01:05:10.880
m oh good, save confirm it'sheed blindly and I've got

769
01:05:10.880 --> 01:05:12.519
to go. I mean, it's good that they've got all

770
01:05:12.519 --> 01:05:21.159
this security stuff, but wow, okay, what's the code? Nine

771
01:05:21.400 --> 01:05:32.079
two three seven three five four seven nine six one.

772
01:05:32.800 --> 01:05:38.079
Here we go, right, we will call you next steps.

773
01:05:40.719 --> 01:05:43.360
So basically I've got they're not calling me now to

774
01:05:43.440 --> 01:05:55.079
do lists right journal confirm your identity. So this is

775
01:05:55.119 --> 01:06:01.239
the problem. Confirm your identity. And it's like, okay, how

776
01:06:04.280 --> 01:06:07.159
there was no way I could confirm my identity simply

777
01:06:07.239 --> 01:06:10.280
because what they were asking for I do not have

778
01:06:11.800 --> 01:06:14.800
do not have a driving license. I do not have

779
01:06:15.559 --> 01:06:21.320
a up to date passport. Last time he has pass

780
01:06:21.760 --> 01:06:24.480
passport was over three years ago. Now I think I

781
01:06:24.559 --> 01:06:30.599
don't have any credit cards stuff. I haven't got no

782
01:06:30.639 --> 01:06:37.440
credit cards. I don't get any bills anymore. Everything's kind

783
01:06:37.480 --> 01:06:43.159
of on just online now. But didn't ask for any bills.

784
01:06:43.159 --> 01:06:45.920
It's like there's nothing, there's nothing for me to prove

785
01:06:46.239 --> 01:06:51.800
my ID. Yeah, I've got a council flat that I've

786
01:06:51.840 --> 01:06:54.599
had for ten years, and they know who I am,

787
01:06:54.800 --> 01:06:57.360
and they're paying me. They've got our bank details. If

788
01:06:57.400 --> 01:06:59.920
that's not proof of ID giving you a bank deal

789
01:07:00.119 --> 01:07:06.920
tells and I don't know what is. Ironically, not one

790
01:07:06.960 --> 01:07:09.360
point during this whole thing have they asked my national

791
01:07:09.360 --> 01:07:19.880
insurance number. That I found interesting because that's a very

792
01:07:19.960 --> 01:07:25.199
personal thing. It's a little bit like it's not a

793
01:07:25.239 --> 01:07:26.960
prison number. You know, if you go in the prison

794
01:07:27.599 --> 01:07:30.559
now you pretty much just keep the same number. Well

795
01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:33.079
if you however many times you go back in, it's

796
01:07:33.079 --> 01:07:37.559
the same number. So this is the national insurance number.

797
01:07:37.800 --> 01:07:43.920
Is the same number, always stays the same. Mine is

798
01:07:45.159 --> 01:07:53.239
sc x y jy jy hash hash hash groovy fella.

799
01:07:54.239 --> 01:07:59.639
So that's my national insurance number and sixty nine at

800
01:07:59.639 --> 01:08:03.480
the end, and I'd like they didn't ask for that.

801
01:08:06.800 --> 01:08:09.199
So I've got them down. They're going to call me, right,

802
01:08:09.320 --> 01:08:13.119
They're gonna call me. We will call you. Calls from

803
01:08:13.199 --> 01:08:17.520
US may show on your phone as eight hundred number,

804
01:08:18.319 --> 01:08:23.760
uncannone number are withheld number. If you're expecting a call

805
01:08:23.760 --> 01:08:26.279
from US, you should answer calls from these numbers. We

806
01:08:26.319 --> 01:08:29.000
will make sure that you know the call is genuine

807
01:08:29.680 --> 01:08:34.039
or genuine. We cannot proceed with your claim until we

808
01:08:34.079 --> 01:08:38.199
have confirmed your identity. We will call you in the

809

next two to three days to arrange an interview to

810
01:08:43.319 --> 01:08:47.199
verify your identity. Don't be asking me to go anywhere.

811
01:08:48.119 --> 01:08:51.159
I didn't go anywhere. You talked to him on the phone.

812
01:08:52.119 --> 01:08:55.039
Check information you gave us. If you do not want

813
01:08:55.079 --> 01:08:57.720
to wait for a call, you can confirm your identity online.

814
01:08:57.880 --> 01:08:59.640
So let's click that. What does it say? Come on,

815
01:09:00.000 --> 01:09:03.640
came on, came on, come on. Confirming your identity checks

816
01:09:03.680 --> 01:09:06.560
that it's really you making a claim. We will help

817
01:09:06.600 --> 01:09:09.319
you choose the best ways to do this. You must

818
01:09:09.359 --> 01:09:13.840
confirm your If it's not me, right, they're going to

819
01:09:13.880 --> 01:09:16.600
put the money into my bank account. What use is

820
01:09:16.640 --> 01:09:20.600
it for someone else if it's going into my bank account,

821
01:09:20.600 --> 01:09:25.479
the same bank account. So here's here's what we've got

822
01:09:25.640 --> 01:09:35.159
here here right, here's the options pay slips. You will

823
01:09:35.159 --> 01:09:37.359
need at least two items from the list and this

824
01:09:37.560 --> 01:09:43.560
list to verify your identity online pay slips. I don't

825
01:09:43.600 --> 01:09:49.000
have a payslip P sixty. I don't even not sure

826
01:09:49.039 --> 01:09:51.760
what a P sixty is. It's something to do with

827
01:09:51.800 --> 01:09:59.239
work related UK passport, A valid UK passport, Nope, a

828
01:09:59.399 --> 01:10:06.399
UK drive ncence, never driven. Self assessment. You need your

829
01:10:06.520 --> 01:10:10.079
recent self assessment returns. I don't know what that is.

830
01:10:10.800 --> 01:10:14.840
Credit reference, I guess that's what's that's self employed or something.

831
01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:20.680
Credit references or records, for example, information about credit cards

832
01:10:20.760 --> 01:10:32.439
or phone contracts. I don't I've just I don't have

833
01:10:32.520 --> 01:10:39.520
these things. I don't know what to say. I'm very flummoxed.

834
01:10:41.720 --> 01:10:43.760
So yeah, that's just how it is now. So I'm

835
01:10:43.800 --> 01:10:48.680
gonna have to wait for them. How ironic would it be? Not? Probably?

836
01:10:48.720 --> 01:10:53.800
Irony is possibly not the correct word. Before I wasn't

837
01:10:53.840 --> 01:10:58.359
allowed I wasn't allowed to have any any help because

838
01:10:58.399 --> 01:11:04.720
they couldn't prove who I was. How ridiculous is that?

839
01:11:08.079 --> 01:11:10.800
And I could just say, well, how about I take

840
01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:13.000
a photocopy of every letter that you sent me in

841
01:11:13.000 --> 01:11:16.640
the last ten years. I've got them all, I send

842
01:11:16.640 --> 01:11:18.680
them to you. That kind of proves that I am

843
01:11:18.720 --> 01:11:25.600
who I am? Does it not? Anyway? Other than that,

844
01:11:25.800 --> 01:11:33.479
everything's good, groovy. See if I've got any emails, any emails,

845
01:11:33.720 --> 01:11:48.119
and I'm going to have myself a toilet and then

846
01:11:48.159 --> 01:11:56.640
a bowl of breakfast, a cereal, I think, and then yeah,

847
01:11:56.800 --> 01:12:01.479
blinds half past four I've only eaten twice today. Just good,

848
01:12:01.479 --> 01:12:07.159
isn't it? So I had I had six point thirty

849
01:12:07.439 --> 01:12:18.000
probably something about twelve or eleven eleven ish, and now

850
01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:24.159
now well probably it's four point thirty now, so it's

851
01:12:24.159 --> 01:12:26.920
probably going to be more core to fine if i'd

852
01:12:27.000 --> 01:12:37.479
say before I'm actually munching away, Oh, I need to

853
01:12:37.520 --> 01:12:45.319
exercise my hips. I feel like I could, so I

854
01:12:45.359 --> 01:12:50.560
could be really good. I'd like someone to do some

855
01:12:50.720 --> 01:12:54.680
frusting with well, maybe not thrusting, but do you know,

856
01:12:54.840 --> 01:12:59.359
you us see these videos on YouTube where someone's kind

857
01:12:59.399 --> 01:13:04.119
of pushing the person, like stretching them, but helping them stretch.

858
01:13:04.520 --> 01:13:07.560
That's what I kind of think. I need someone to

859
01:13:07.800 --> 01:13:11.199
hold my legs and just push back gently and maybe

860
01:13:12.319 --> 01:13:15.760
push back on my hips, help me to open up

861
01:13:15.800 --> 01:13:20.279
a bit. So maybe not thrusting, but maybe pushing forward

862
01:13:20.279 --> 01:13:21.960
and they can just push me a little bit more,

863
01:13:22.920 --> 01:13:26.760
just to open up the joints and stuff. I think

864
01:13:26.800 --> 01:13:40.520
that'd be quite cool, but everyone says no, let's getting

865
01:13:40.560 --> 01:13:43.279
to the point where it's becoming embarrassing being on a bus.

866
01:13:43.840 --> 01:13:47.039
I'm just like asking people, you'd think a bus journey

867
01:13:47.039 --> 01:13:49.000
would be a good place to try and to meet

868
01:13:49.000 --> 01:13:55.760
someone that could help you with some stretching. No, maybe

869
01:13:55.800 --> 01:14:00.079
a gym. I just need to find a gym that

870
01:14:00.159 --> 01:14:09.039
I'll allow me in. Here's a weird thing I nearly

871
01:14:09.039 --> 01:14:12.000
did a well I did, actually I did do. Vinnie

872
01:14:12.039 --> 01:14:18.760
was on a chair near the bedroom window, and normally

873
01:14:18.800 --> 01:14:20.800
I've got the curtains drawn a little bit so we

874
01:14:20.800 --> 01:14:27.399
can get into the window sill. I cooked some sausages.

875
01:14:28.720 --> 01:14:30.600
He wouldn't come in here. He was like in the

876
01:14:30.640 --> 01:14:32.159
other room. I don't know. He had a bit of

877
01:14:32.159 --> 01:14:34.680
a weird had been a bit of weird mood today.

878
01:14:35.560 --> 01:14:38.079
So I thought it'd be funny, is if I held

879
01:14:38.079 --> 01:14:42.359
the sausage like it was a part of my anatomy.

880
01:14:43.039 --> 01:14:45.760
So I jumped in the doorway and just wiggled in about.

881
01:14:47.760 --> 01:14:49.960
And I forgot that the curtains were drawn and there's

882
01:14:49.960 --> 01:14:52.960
no neck curtains, and the lady opposite was in her kitchen.

883
01:14:54.159 --> 01:15:02.600
It's like, oh, oh, dear, and I just jumped back

884
01:15:02.640 --> 01:15:05.399
and hid. Now, perhaps I shouldn't have done and put

885
01:15:05.439 --> 01:15:09.239
it made it worse, but it was. It literally was

886
01:15:09.319 --> 01:15:12.039
just a sausage, and I gave it to Vinnie. He

887
01:15:12.079 --> 01:15:16.119
wouldn't I had did, like put it break it into

888
01:15:16.199 --> 01:15:21.439
little bits for him. He's been very lazy. But yeah,

889
01:15:21.520 --> 01:15:23.119
I was that was a bit of a weird a

890
01:15:23.239 --> 01:15:37.520
weird one. Not the weirdest thing has ever happened, but yeah,

891
01:15:38.000 --> 01:15:39.920
I think probably the weirdest thing is when I was

892
01:15:40.279 --> 01:15:45.439
I had Andre in town and people coming up to me, Oh,

893
01:15:45.439 --> 01:15:48.880
he's so cute, and he was just you know, wheeling

894
01:15:48.920 --> 01:15:52.680
about and all that stuff, and I was holding him

895
01:15:52.680 --> 01:15:56.319
into I was kind of, this is a long time ago,

896
01:15:56.359 --> 01:15:59.640
it's like nine years ago, when and I was talking

897
01:15:59.640 --> 01:16:02.039
to this female and she seemed to be interested, and

898
01:16:02.079 --> 01:16:04.520
she's talking to me and getting on really well, and

899
01:16:05.399 --> 01:16:09.079
I'm kind of, I don't know, not shoving off, but

900
01:16:09.800 --> 01:16:15.039
trying to be trying to be interested maybe I don't

901
01:16:15.079 --> 01:16:18.239
know if it's possible, and thinking this is going quite well.

902
01:16:18.960 --> 01:16:21.239
And she starts laughing. She's laughing at my jokes, and

903
01:16:21.279 --> 01:16:25.399
she's laughing, really laughing at this point, and I'm thinking, Wow,

904
01:16:25.479 --> 01:16:28.600
this is going really well. And then other people started laughing,

905
01:16:28.640 --> 01:16:32.399
and I'm thinking, blind me, this is going really well.

906
01:16:33.359 --> 01:16:35.920
And then I notice people behind me were laughing, and

907
01:16:36.039 --> 01:16:38.079
other people at the side of me were like, and

908
01:16:38.159 --> 01:16:42.039
I looked down because they were pointing Vinnie had pooed

909
01:16:42.439 --> 01:16:46.760
all down my top and onto my trousers. Not Vinnie Andre, sorry,

910
01:16:46.840 --> 01:16:50.880
not Vinny Andre, pretty much and weed and everything like.

911
01:16:51.439 --> 01:16:53.159
He wanted to go to a toilet, but I was

912
01:16:53.199 --> 01:16:57.279
holding on to him, didn't realize he needed a toilet,

913
01:16:57.520 --> 01:17:04.880
and he just let go all over me. And I

914
01:17:04.920 --> 01:17:06.760
was actually with someone, so I was with a woman

915
01:17:06.800 --> 01:17:12.239
as well. She thought it was hilarious also, but apparently

916
01:17:12.279 --> 01:17:22.840
she didn't want a second date. It was weird. I

917
01:17:22.880 --> 01:17:26.239
still can't find it funny even now. It was horror.

918
01:17:26.279 --> 01:17:28.159
It was really. It was in the middle of town.

919
01:17:28.840 --> 01:17:33.520
I had no change of clothes, and I did go

920
01:17:33.560 --> 01:17:36.479
into a public toilet to try and like wash myself off,

921
01:17:39.000 --> 01:17:41.119
but then it just went from It just looked like

922
01:17:41.159 --> 01:17:46.399
I wet myself after that because everything was wet, so

923
01:17:46.399 --> 01:17:52.640
it looked like I just Yeah, it was a weird one,

924
01:17:54.560 --> 01:17:59.199
but it wasn't. It wasn't Andre's fault. It was me.

925
01:17:59.319 --> 01:18:03.079
I wasn't really didn't wasn't reading what he needed. But

926
01:18:03.119 --> 01:18:05.840
then he was wiggling about anyway, but he kept trying

927
01:18:05.840 --> 01:18:09.600
to get down. And in the end, because with the

928
01:18:09.600 --> 01:18:11.319
finger with ferrets is when they need to go, they

929
01:18:11.359 --> 01:18:16.000
need to go. They don't like Vinnio spend ten, fifteen,

930
01:18:16.079 --> 01:18:19.600
twenty minutes looking for somewhere to go to the toilet. Andre.

931
01:18:21.199 --> 01:18:29.079
They get like a five second notice, maybe ten seconds

932
01:18:29.119 --> 01:18:32.840
sometimes sometimes even two seconds, to a really short notice

933
01:18:32.920 --> 01:18:41.119
like need to go go now, Andre. Vinni is kind

934
01:18:41.119 --> 01:18:44.680
of like, yeah, he'll spend a good twenty minutes walking

935
01:18:44.760 --> 01:18:50.079
up and down the grass finding the correct place. Andre.

936
01:18:52.079 --> 01:18:53.960
He'd go in the right place if he could. But

937
01:18:54.159 --> 01:18:58.920
you know, if he couldn't always get to the where

938
01:18:58.920 --> 01:19:01.920
the paper was, especially if he was on the roofs

939
01:19:01.960 --> 01:19:07.880
on the roof sunbathing, they just do it down the chimney.

940
01:19:07.880 --> 01:19:14.439
So it's all right. I was thinking about that, you know,

941
01:19:14.600 --> 01:19:18.079
like sending kids up chimneys. I was just thinking about

942
01:19:18.119 --> 01:19:21.720
that the other day because a lot of kids want

943
01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:25.640
to do what their parents do, don't They Oh, can

944
01:19:25.720 --> 01:19:28.000
I do it? Like, no, you can't, you're too young.

945
01:19:29.079 --> 01:19:36.800
So I'm guessing when parents were cleaning out the chimneys,

946
01:19:37.880 --> 01:19:39.880
the little kids are saying, how can I help? Can

947
01:19:39.920 --> 01:19:43.479
I help? Not realizing it was going to lead to

948
01:19:43.520 --> 01:19:48.159
a career, but like, what can I help? Also probably

949
01:19:48.159 --> 01:19:50.760
not realizing that they were going to be sent up

950
01:19:50.800 --> 01:19:54.680
the chimney, because you know, when they said can I help,

951
01:19:54.720 --> 01:19:56.800
they probably thought can I just hold the big stick

952
01:19:57.720 --> 01:20:01.720
and get dirty? They don't think that they were going

953
01:20:01.760 --> 01:20:03.840
to be put on the end of a stick and

954
01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:07.119
shoved up the chimney. So yeah, I suppose it was

955
01:20:08.239 --> 01:20:14.479
wearing a little brush on a hat with a brush on. Uh.

956
01:20:18.960 --> 01:20:21.920
They are kind of like really really tall toilet brush,

957
01:20:22.039 --> 01:20:29.560
isn't they. We've still got chimneys here. It's weird. There's

958
01:20:29.560 --> 01:20:34.079
a chimney over the road. Literally on that block over there,

959
01:20:34.439 --> 01:20:41.119
there's a chimney. Now, there's one hundred percent no fire

960
01:20:41.359 --> 01:20:46.640
place in there at all, So why is there a chimney.

961
01:20:46.640 --> 01:20:54.239
I've got no idea unless I'm gonna look. This is

962
01:20:54.279 --> 01:21:06.640
going to bug me now if I don't look. Yeah,

963
01:21:06.640 --> 01:21:13.279
there's definitely a chimney. There's a chimney on a building.

964
01:21:13.399 --> 01:21:19.079
It's just studio flats there. I an't know. There's no

965
01:21:19.359 --> 01:21:24.439
open fires. Maybe I guess they used to be. But

966
01:21:24.479 --> 01:21:27.199
would there have been in nineteen seventy eight when these

967
01:21:27.199 --> 01:21:33.079
buildings were built. I don't imagine there had been open

968
01:21:33.119 --> 01:21:38.000
fires back then. It would have been more just central heating.

969
01:21:41.920 --> 01:21:48.399
I didn't he know, h But there's definitely a fire,

970
01:21:49.000 --> 01:21:52.840
like a chimney on top. I guess it's just blocked.

971
01:21:53.319 --> 01:21:55.399
I mean when I moved into the when we moved

972
01:21:55.439 --> 01:22:01.479
into the family house in about nineteen seventy nine, was

973
01:22:01.520 --> 01:22:13.960
it there was a chimney in the living room and

974
01:22:16.479 --> 01:22:20.600
the bedroom upstairs, which was their parents' bedroom, so there

975
01:22:20.640 --> 01:22:22.359
was a chimney. I think they blocked the one in

976
01:22:22.399 --> 01:22:25.399
the bedroom. There might have even been one in the

977
01:22:25.439 --> 01:22:27.840
other one, which would also be the room next to

978
01:22:27.840 --> 01:22:32.279
it as well, but we had the one. We had,

979
01:22:32.279 --> 01:22:35.840
the chimney in the living room, the chimney. We had,

980
01:22:35.840 --> 01:22:45.359
the fireplace, the open fireplace actually active in the winter

981
01:22:45.439 --> 01:22:49.680
and stuff. I still love it, love the open fire.

982
01:22:51.560 --> 01:23:00.520
That was lovely. Yeah, I did. If we had one

983
01:23:00.560 --> 01:23:03.920
in the other room, I think it was just one room.

984
01:23:04.199 --> 01:23:17.640
It was really nice. It was just really comfy, cozy, smoky, stuffy,

985
01:23:17.840 --> 01:23:23.159
but it was nice. I don't know if they got outlawed.

986
01:23:23.199 --> 01:23:26.640
I don't know if it was if we had to

987
01:23:26.760 --> 01:23:30.880
stop using them. Because when I used to go to Nottingham,

988
01:23:31.319 --> 01:23:33.479
I had this friend who lived there and he had

989
01:23:33.960 --> 01:23:39.840
everywhere because the colon are like a mining village and

990
01:23:39.920 --> 01:23:46.359
everyone had these wood burners in these places and well

991
01:23:46.439 --> 01:23:49.479
cold as well, but they'd have these things that would

992
01:23:49.479 --> 01:23:56.119
be on all day long and like a, yeah, I

993
01:23:56.119 --> 01:24:08.159
think it was quite nice, Like yeah, such a lovely house, Finny.

994
01:24:08.279 --> 01:24:12.600
I don't know what you want, right, I'll better go. So, yeah,

995
01:24:12.640 --> 01:24:20.800
that's just basically what's happening. That's the update I had

996
01:24:20.800 --> 01:24:23.560
this little thing. I played with her thought, Okay, I

997
01:24:23.560 --> 01:24:28.119
should reword that I had this idea. Maybe just come

998
01:24:28.119 --> 01:24:38.399
off the benefits and just say I need to I

999
01:24:38.439 --> 01:24:41.079
need to have enough money coming in to pay everything,

1000
01:24:44.560 --> 01:24:48.039
and just put it to the universe, just like put

1001
01:24:48.079 --> 01:24:50.199
it out there and say I need this is what

1002
01:24:50.239 --> 01:24:52.399
I need, need to pay my rent, need to eat,

1003
01:24:52.920 --> 01:24:57.560
need to pay the bills, and in return I will

1004
01:24:58.640 --> 01:25:04.239
make regular recordings. But I don't know. I'm all sure

1005
01:25:04.319 --> 01:25:09.079
if the universe is listening all the time. I like

1006
01:25:09.159 --> 01:25:16.199
to think it is. That is one of the one

1007
01:25:16.239 --> 01:25:19.039
of the rules of the secret one of the rules

1008
01:25:19.039 --> 01:25:29.239
of the manifestation thing is or the think and grow rich,

1009
01:25:29.960 --> 01:25:32.079
which is where all that stuff kind of comes from.

1010
01:25:32.239 --> 01:25:42.640
Stop squeaking. The idea is you do something, you cut

1011
01:25:43.079 --> 01:25:46.840
all that You basically cut the ties, not ties from people,

1012
01:25:46.840 --> 01:25:54.159
but you stop being able to go back, So it'd

1013
01:25:54.199 --> 01:26:00.880
be the same as you know, you go somewhere and

1014
01:26:01.479 --> 01:26:06.840
you can't return, you have to keep going regardless, and

1015
01:26:07.279 --> 01:26:09.840
stopping my benefits or not really knowing them, would be

1016
01:26:09.920 --> 01:26:18.239
like that. So sink or swim sort of situation. I

1017
01:26:18.279 --> 01:26:24.640
don't know, I had a thought about it. I definitely

1018
01:26:24.640 --> 01:26:27.760
feel a lot better about myself if I was if

1019
01:26:27.800 --> 01:26:31.439
this was, if I was able to pay my own

1020
01:26:31.479 --> 01:26:36.039
way and you know, do it, you know, by doing this.

1021
01:26:36.239 --> 01:26:41.479
But I don't know, I don't know. He's hassling me.

1022
01:26:42.720 --> 01:26:45.079
I'm pretty sure he didn't used to be like this.

1023
01:26:47.560 --> 01:26:50.760
He's now big. And are you hungry? Stick your tongue

1024
01:26:50.760 --> 01:26:55.640

1025
01:26:55.800 --> 01:26:58.520
side his socide. He is so cute, Jordan food, Renny,
