rod's not coming out for love or money. Stick your
finger in that hole. You not, You'll never get it out.
You have to cut it off with the knuckle.

They should have used it in that that dike should
have used it in Holland.

your finger stuck somewhere. Have you ever done that? Have
you like people who who make mistakes with glue and things?
Speaker 3 (01:28):

Speaker 4 (01:30):
There was a nice neat hole in some brickwork and
this young boy I was called friends of it, and
he did have his finger stuck in there.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
How do you get that? Well, I had.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
I got a cold chisel and I chipped around around
around until there was a little bit of lucist that
he got it out, and then we squirted him with
a bit of vegetable you know, oil, olive oil. Yeah,
because he went in with the knuckle and then the
brick just grabbed him.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Ye, your and your finger starts to swell. Yes, yes,

hole and got him out.
