Speaker 1 (00:00):
Have you ever done something great and no one saw it?
No one was there to see it. This is a
game of golf story, all right.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
When you do something wrong, there's a crowd to see it.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Yes, I putted a ball that Jan Stevenson would have
been proud of. I read the layer of the land,
read the greens, as they say. I stood between the
hole and my ball, and I very patiently took it
all in and decided which way that it was, you know,

(00:38):
sort of sloping, and then I aimed for just left
of the hole, and I was a fair distance out
and it curved around like a perfect crop circle, and
it went into the hole. And in my head people
were cheering and yelling, get in the hole. In reality
it was crickets.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Lest the crickets saw.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
It, that is a possibility, and some crows. So you know,
quite often the greatest things you do happen when there's
nobody there to.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Back you up.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
And that often happens with people getting a hole in
one in golf.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Oh yes, Or because when I've been on the golf course,
which is not all that often, but when I have,
when you do a bad shot, everyone's there to go.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Everyone saw that and.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Then when you just hit it sweetly and it goes down.
They're all at the back just talking amongst themselves and did.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
You see that? Sorry?

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Right, I swear it curved like it was attached to
a compass and you were doing you know, one of those.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
A bit thick.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
And no one saw it today. Peter and Marangaroo, Good morning, Peter.
Good what happened?

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Okay, Listen years ago when my kids were young, and
I was in my back garden and it's sort of
like split level and its decent sized garden. Anyway, the
kids used to have one of those green swing sets
with a the saw and a roman rings and a
slide and had one of those little seats inside it

(02:19):
where the kids could swing on. Anyway, I was sought
down the then a different level of the garden, and
I had a soccer ball and I thought, I wonder
if I could kick that ball and make it tuned
it into the seat. Anyway, I've had a couple of
beers and I did it. And I did it and

(02:41):
surprised that bloody went straight in and I thought, oh shit,
there was no one bloody watching or anything like that.
So I thought, what if I could do it? Again,
I lined up and it was in between my two
pillars and some steps and anyway, the swing set was
probably the back of the garden. And I burnted a
soccer ball end and it hit a pillar and a
rick a shade and it went straight into the same spot.

(03:05):
We're always bloody.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Uh Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
So there was no one watching, you know. I couldn't
have done it if I tried time and no one saw.
No one saw it was a phone, my little breakness cameras. See.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Now, that's the one thing about it now these days, Peter,
is that someone c C t V will catch it
somehow somewhere.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Now. But yeah, did they believe you?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Peter? This is the thing, honest. You can't remember.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Cans and you run around to the neighbor. You run
around to the neighbor. Hey, hey, hey, hey, have you
got any c C TV camera Because I just did
something amazing in my backyard. No worry, Peter. He shoots
his cause twice. Yeah, even when he messed it up
and bounced it off the wall. We've all done something

(04:11):
like that.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
As a kid. I think that was part of the
speckiness of it. The ricochet Layton in Sorrento Hello, Hello.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
What did you do?

Speaker 4 (04:22):
I was at my basketball training and it was about
mid session, Yes, and I was. I thought I'd give
it a three pointer and it was I did it backwards.
I made it backwards three point. It was my first
ever and no one saw it.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
But lately the crickets went crazy.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Did they believe you? Oh?

Speaker 4 (04:50):
My coach did no one else?

Speaker 2 (04:52):
No, you know what, as long as you because the
coach makes the decisions. Laden so as long as the
coach agrees.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
Have you?

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Have you done it since?

Speaker 4 (05:07):
Oh? Yeah? But not really backwards?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Oh okay, you can't do it backwards.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
That's a that's a one off. That's a one off thing.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Well, yeah, did when you did it forwards?

Speaker 2 (05:19):

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Oh that's something break in.

Speaker 2 (05:25):

neither of us have ever done.
