Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tim Wilson, Good morning to you. Hey, Okay, Hawk's good
morning to you.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Good morning, hey. I love that the Prime Minister said.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
That he gave you your gift based on what he saw
on your social media.
Speaker 4 (00:15):
Which your social media.
Speaker 5 (00:19):
You know you don't have social Media's referring to my
Instagram and the fact that he's following me on my
Instagram now makes me feel a little bit, a little
bit freaked out about what I'm putting on my Instagram.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
I watch it kate to you.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
To be fair, you knew he followed you on Instagram.
I don't think didn't.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
He He's commented before, but yeah, hard look at it.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Yeah, it's a it's a there's a little bit of
tension in the station at the moment over the gift
because the Jason's a bit upset that I awarded the
Prime Minister the best gift prize.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Why your gift wasn't even Jason's idea was Sam That's.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Not a bad point, but nevertheless, so Jason's upset because
he thinks our gift is useful, will continue to be useful,
and therefore that Trump's just a stunt, which is what
the calendar is.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Oh I think you'll find the calendar useful. I think
no one cares more about wacky world elections than.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
You couldn't agree more. And I'm going to get it framed.
You don't know this part, but I'm going to get
it framed and I'm going to stick it in the barn.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
How can you frame a calendar?
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Well, because you can frame anything. You frame anything. You
put it on a hard board and you put a
frame around it, and you put glass over the front
of it and boom, there it is.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Oh, okay, okay. So you're not going to use it.
It's it's an artifact.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
When you say use it, what do you want me
to do? Draw on it?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Draw it?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
You could clear up the leave. I think you had
your leave wrong, and I think you make a good point.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
A lot of the media do three or four days
a week or take their leaves sporadically throughout the year,
and you're unfairly punished because you take yours in a
block an because.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
You don't want to take time off during the year, because.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
You are so dedicated to your job and so hard working,
So that seems a bit unfair their criticism.
Speaker 6 (02:08):
Then again, then again, Sophie Paul the news, thirteen years
at school, no days off. I'm just saying that's the benchmark.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Yeah, if you miss the story in the news, she
is who what school she go to? She never took
an I don't recall the school, but she was just
a whole school without taking a single sick down.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
The whole schooling career.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah, now that's fantastic. The gift itself that we gave
the Prime Minister is have you have you two seen
it literally laid eyes on it yet or not?
Speaker 6 (02:40):
I haven't seen it, but I heard it.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
Is it a gift for a penance?
Speaker 3 (02:46):
The large picture of Mike on the tray, So if
that's sitting on your lap looking back up at you
while you're trying to eat your dinner, I think that
could be off putting.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
What happened.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
Might we might see some weight loss from the Prime
Minister you put.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Food, might not be able to finish his meals anymore.
The reasons have you seen it? Having seen it? So
see the boss once again? Jason, He claims it's would.
I don't think it's would. I don't think Wood's come
anywhere near the tray aspect of it. So it's it's
it's a bean bag. It's a mini bean bag it
with a faux WOULD tray on top and on the trays.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
What TV trays are like, you're the only one who's
never heard of.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Them, explaining you know they have these anyway, I don't
know what these are. Now the question is how much
would you think?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
How much?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
How much would you think a bean bag it with
a photo of me on it costs? Roughly?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I thought you weren't allowed to say the price.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
They've given me the price explicitly.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
The gift.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
No, no, no, it's not about the price. It's it's it's
it's it's just an exercise and what things cost.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
So given you can get them at Brisco's for about
I think they start at like thirty nine up to
about maybe seventy nine ninety five, right.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
And how much lost the picture?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Okay, so we unfortunately there's a bit of a revelation.
We bought three because Jason wanted one to.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Take home, maybe for the kids to draw.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
On, maybe, or maybe to eat his dinner off. So then,
how much do you think it would cost to post
three of those from Britain?
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Oh, that'll be a lot. Actually, there's probably more experive
than the trays. I've tried posting.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
It's a fortune. Okay, you say a hundy, Tim, so
one hundred and sorry, how much, Tim, did you think
the trays were? Roughly?
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Oh, well, now that you say, I mean another one hundred.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
So one hundred per train, So thirty bucks a tray.
So you've got it. You've got it for two hundred dollars.
How much do you think in total it is, Cadie,
So you said, you're saying thirty nine times three is
forty three, forty is one twenty, so you've seen one twenty.
And how much is the post.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Well you've got to add the personalized photo being put
on top, so that that's probably a bit extra.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, it is expensive to take a photo of bike.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
It is true.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
It is true.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
That's true.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Also also a wistful one. How many how many shots
does you have to take.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
To get those? And it's library stocked and we didn't
do a special photo.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Shoot for the reckon the postage would be about one fifty.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
One fifty for the postage, one fifty for the postage,
and one twenty for the trays plus two seven Yeah,
the light trays plus a little bit of a little
bit of extra for putting my photo on. So you've
got you've got about two sei Do you want to
say three hundred? Katie? Would you be happy with three
hundred and three hundred three hundred? And you would be
happy Tim with two hundred or two twenty two twenty five?
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Ah.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Look now that Katie's run through it, I want to
go closer to three.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
I'm going to say to eighty to eighty.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
It turns out, Katie, you were on the money in
the sense that the.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Rude to talk about the price of gifts.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I hope that they're not listening here, Amanda, because this
is ute.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
No, no, no, it's it's he won't give a monkey's
It was just it's an interesting exercise in the because
it was the thought that made the gift fantastic, because
it's an awesome gift. But you're right, the postage was
the same as the gift itself.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Yeah, the gift has been there, done that got the
T shirt. It's a nightmare.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
What is it about British post? What are they doing there?
Is it just a roof officers post?
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I've sent stuff to the UK and I was like,
that's the last Christmas present you get in the UK.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
It costs more than.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
It is posted money gone? Is everything gone through the
roof at the post office?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Through the roof?
Speaker 1 (06:39):
So we paid two forty seven for three trays.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Oh well that's let's let's I think that's good.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Who's saying that's expensive?
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Well the mail was two forty seven, right, the mail
was to forty seven, so the trays were to forty seven.
The mail was to forty seven, two hundred and forty
seven dollars to post trade.
Speaker 2 (07:01):

it done here?

local woodwork shop for the bean bag in your hand
and just said, you know, can.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
And so I go down to the stationary warehouse, the
warehouse stationary, and I buy some some polystyrene balls and
some cheap fabric and a stapler, and then I get
some faux wood and I stayple the bag to the wood,
and then I get a photo of me with a
bit of glue and stick it on.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Absolutely help you you think Sammy would help me?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (07:37):
He helps you with everything else?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
For next year, just campaigning for you off here with
Sam that I think next year, what you need to
do is not take all your leave at the end,
but maybe break it up throughout the year so you're
not so tired by the end of the year because
you are exhausted because you do work so hard and
you work all day. But you'll say you'll count that
by saying it's election, yere, I'm not going to take
a single.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Day off as well.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Who doesn't love It'll be a nightmare? Well loved, who
doesn't love election? You put your hand up if you
don't love election. Everybody loves you love election.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
My hands up to we're the only three people in
the nation.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
But every other policy, every politician, where the projects your thing?
Speaker 1 (08:17):
About your service? Katie went off this morning at the
start of the show, right right, So I want to
I want you to you'll love this, to stand by
for this. Conclude this segment with the best service we
have received yesterday? Which happened yesterday?
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Refresh my memory. Sorry, I've done so much shopping.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Which service was?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
It's not about shopping, It's about having a problem that
was solved through good service.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Can you memory?
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Right? Here?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
We go, so this is at our house. Yes, water
was water was a problem?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Oh? Sorry, yes, sorry.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
That's too late, Katie did you didn't even remember? You
don't care, you're not interested.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
So we have such an insight into your marriage. What
was the question we had? We had water? Oh it's
that thing. No, you can't speak anymore because.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
No, because you didn't remember. You lose the game that
it was so much and a day goes wrong.
Speaker 6 (09:19):
So all you have to do is sharp at work,
and Katie runs everything behind the scenes, and then you
expected to perform like some seal in a circus on
a Friday morning.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
Here, we're gageous.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
What is a problem at the property? So we ring
up and we say what is the problem at the property?
And he goes, look, best best I can do is
come tomorrow morning. Fair enough, that's not the end of
the world. We're happy with that. Then he rings back
in about twenty minutes and he goes, actually, I can
see one of the young blokes. He'll go now and
solve your problem instantly. So the guy, the young bloke,
turns up at the property within maybe six, seven, eight
(09:51):
nine minutes of us calling with the problem, and then
he rings up to tells us it's fixed. He's come
from birthcare where he's just had this baby, and he's
abandoned his wife and child to come and fix our water.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Absolute legend. No, to be fair to him, I said,
please don't do that. That's way more important that you're there,
not at our property with the water.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Don't worry about it.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
And he said, I know I needed to get out
and get some food anyway. So I was like blown away,
incredibly kind.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
That was to be fair. We might be en route
from the birthcare.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
I'd say, don't you. Aren't you right beside the birthcare?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
So no, well we're not really beside the birthcare. But
the point is tim I mean, is that above and beyond?
Or is that above and beyond?
Speaker 6 (10:39):
That's like the girl who went to school every day
every morning.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
It gives us hope, gives.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Us up and it's a story for the season, is
it not. And on that note, Timothy Wilson, Yes, you
have a lovely Christmas and a happy holiday, and we'll
see you next year. Kate, I would wish you a
merry Christmas and a happy holiday. But I get the
sense you feel tension with me being there for an
extended period time. From now.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Well it is a long time on holiday, I will say.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
Oh, here you are. You know what you thought? Okay,
