Speaker 2 (00:34):
And on the cutting room floor today.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
In the old days, when you left your job, there
was a farewell party, wasn't there.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
It's not how you leave the place well, that is true.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Frog march, Yeah, a farewell party.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
When you get frog marched out of a building. You
don't really get time from farewell.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
Someone else is carrying a cardboard box with you if
you're hello, kiddy, post it notes in.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
There and pictures of your family, and that gots strewn
into the street with your good self.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
You know, are we catching up for drinks? Later?

Speaker 1 (01:00):
When I was working at Simon Town's End's Wonder World,
I was my first job really as a researcher, and
I didn't realize the nature of the churn. Yeah, people
were leaving every week and every Friday. I just thought
there was a party with a big bowl of cheesels
and cask wine. I didn't realize that they were people's farewell.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
You were seeing woodra get chucked out on the street
with his troll dolls and chew toys and pictures of Simon.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
But these days, in the corporate world or in the factory,
wherever you're working on any job site, so many people
are leaving. I don't think people afford farewells anymore. I've
been reading about George Washington's farewell party. You forget that
presidents and those big punsas would have a big farewell party.
He apparently was quite famous for propping up the bar

(01:46):
at the Warren Tavern in Charlestown.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I might explain the wooden teeth wouldn't eat.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
That's right, he had wooden teeth. He's all his teeth
and fall and I don't replaced them with wood.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
He made himself, though, did he? Yeah, which shows that.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Did he chop down a cherry tree for his teeth?

Speaker 2 (02:02):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:02):
No, no, he was just a young fella and he said,
I cannot lie something in something.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
And then what's the cherry tree? Got to do it?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
When he chopped down the cherry tree? And he was
asked whether he chopped it down.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
And why had he? Maybe it was for his teeth
because he was a kid. Maybe, Okay, Yeah, anyway.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
Let me tell my politicians to deny the truth.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Let me tell you what's been happening at his farewell party.
Do you want to know? Yeah? Sure, ARTI fardy had
a party.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
All the farts were there, tooty fruit, He did a
beauty all when after it.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
They all ran out for it. No, I'll tell you
what happened to his party. Apparently the bar tab in
today's parlance, would be worth fifteen thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
That's quite making quite a lash.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Making it one of American history's most impressive and expensive
send offs. So let me tell you what they drank yep.
At George Washington's seventeen eighty seven farewell party, attendees consumed
sixty bottles of claret, fifty four bottles of madeira. That's sweet,
isn't it? If twenty two bottles of port yep, eight

(03:08):
bottles of whist oh, eight bottles of hard cider, oh,
seven bowls of alcoholic punch.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
There were only fifty five people at that party.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
No beer.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Maybe beer wasn't a big thing.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Then I thought they would have had more beer.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Well, look at the stuff they drank. You're looking at
it and thinking whether you would have enjoyed it. You'd
be saying I wouldn't have the madeira. When you break
it down with that, all of that, that's more than
two bottles of booze per person. And that doesn't count
all of that punch, the seven bowls of alcoholic punch.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
How many people fifty five?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
You say, I know you're doing the mats in your
head and you've had soires that would drink a lot
more than this.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
Now, we had an engagement party, which you were privileged
to be there, so privileged. Well, I was privileged to
see you there at the engagement party, because you know,
when someone like you goes to a party, you bring
the vibe, and people were very happy.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
They also brought the madeira.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
But at the engagement party, I noticed that, for some reason,
someone told me that black the Blackfish.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Or Great Northern is the beer that the kids trick
I bought.

Speaker 3 (04:09):
I think four boxes of two He's New thirty can blocks,
and then ten boxes thirty cans of Great Northern. I'm
still drinking the stuff now, and that was two months,
three months ago.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Really, that Great Northern's dreadful be drink water.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Could you buy full strength?

Speaker 2 (04:29):
No?

Speaker 1 (04:29):
It?

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Well they're full strength is watery junk? I don't know
where the matter is. Give me a beer the put
hair on your face, not that stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
That Remember when Jack went away to our place down
the south coast, five of his friends, he took a
fifty six liter keg for three days. Yeah, and they
emptied it.

Speaker 2 (04:53):

a beer.
