Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Lisa and I are embarking on learning something new. They
say that you're never too old to pick up something
new in life. I'm attempting to learn Spanish. Lisa is
learning to play golf and yesterday took part in her
very first tournament. Now I did manage to catch a
little of the broadcast of the Ambrose Masters at Royal Wembley.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
This is just this is just one of the many highlights.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
Lisa shure. This little path.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Three pretty much read.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
Down breeze.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Lisa, an excellent line.

Speaker 4 (00:35):
That's enough. Oh yeah, that's a hold one.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
It was as it really goes, as we know.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
I've had one lesson and three guys at the driving range.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Talk about fast freightned.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
Yesterday I did indeed take part in the Parent Institute.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Golf Day at Wembley.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
The Parent Institute, by the way, wonderful organization for neurological
and translational science, Western Australia's longest established medical research institute.
They undertake cutting edge of search on a broad spectrum
of neurological conditions.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
So hopefully yesterday we.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Raised some cash for them because they do great work.
Now I had the best day, and not only that,
I wasn't completely crap. I didn't think you would be
bit crap, but not entirely crap, which is really good.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
As you know, it was Ambrose.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
I sunk two of the putts.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
I've seen you at work on our little putting setup
we have here in the office.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
You're not bad.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
I think they might have used my ball as the
ball maybe once or twice.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Dozens of balls that you do after one lesson, so.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
We go.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
There's more highlights. I won something, What do you win?
I won best dressed a kids. You know, I don't
even know what you had earlier training for. That was
it the checkered pants?

Speaker 3 (02:15):
I think it was my shoes, my almost pink shoes.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
That's what you're almost pink, your Jimmy too golf shoes exactly.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
So good news, Jess. I wasn't completely put off my
lack of it.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Who was a champion golfer was worried.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
She said, oh, I don't know if I want you
to do this tomorrow, it might you know, it might
sort of ruin any confidence that you might. I said, no,
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
I'm not that easily. It's overblown your confidence. But it was.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
It was awesome fun. Thank you to the Parent Institute
and Long Reach and everyone involved.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
I want to come back well and I will practice.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
In fact, you know, it really has spurt far from
what Jess was worried about that it might dent any
you know sort of confidence. It has definitely spurred me
on to actually want to be you know, practice and
become capable of actually taking part more you know, well
taking more part.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
We will continue to track your progress. Now it's on
to the PGA
