Actually I've still got more. I must have ten or
fifteen Father's Day cards going back to when they're really young. Yeah,
and then the birthday ones as well, and you love
this Alex. For about five or six years running, they
obviously like putting things down that I'd taught them, And

(01:32):
for about six years running, the only thing on there
was and thank you for teaching me how to ride
my bike. I was like, I'm sure there must have
been some other some new gears since then. Can't just
be that's it, That's all what you've got from our
relationship is other than the bike. It's hard to see
what else you did shout out to those bike years though,
the heyday hey Day. But my eighteen year old daughter

(01:55):
surprised me yesterday with they don't make homemade cards anymore,
but she'd made me one. Oh my god, it was
so much better. The little hand right, there were some
drawings on the front of a microphone. You know what,
they just draw things that you're interested in. There's a
microphone and what looked like some sort of berzuka or
Greek musical instrument. They didn't want to go what is

(02:16):
the vouchers to learn how to play the bazuka? Or
thought of the camp it is and then what do
you have lunch with them? What did you do?

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Yeah, we just had lunch there in Carnington. On the
way back, I had a really lazy morning at this
beautiful house like a country house, which is which is
just magic.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
You've just broken into it and there was a family
in there and old people that did buy a squatting there.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
But at this place is like a games room, just
those little things kids just love. And back onto this
river as well. So we went for like the walks
and really really special time and Victorian towns. I mean,
can I just make a shout out to the Victorian
town the love that they's just beautiful?

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Like the the aesthetics and the and the cafes and
the walks and the you know in your South Wales
towns just don't really have that same pride in their
in their town.

Speaker 5 (03:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
I just I don't know what it is, but they're
just magical. He he's really turned his back on New
South Wales. They don't really make much of an effort.
I mean, it's some power to basically throw shaped up
enticre state.

Speaker 6 (03:34):
No shoutouts, no, no shoutouts, and.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
It really just lay the groundwork for our national show.
So that's changing. Amanda stay on air about that, saying,
you know New South Wales East, those towns and villages
are amazing. I know those dirty old Victorian ones still
smeared of COVID.

Speaker 4 (03:54):

says the The Australian Red Carpet premiere of MJ the
musical Patsy. They've got a special performance just pats sat
in the middle of the theater. Her majesty, Her majesty

it says dress and then in capitals glamorous. Now this
is to me, it's not even worth looking at twice Okay, However,
to my wife she's like, oh my god, what does
that even mean. We don't need to get into Father's Day.
I kept saying, anyone, any drawa yesterday. I'm sorry. When

(05:25):
you share your life with three women, there's always drama.
And they are all three of them students now as well,
and so there was drama, I'm afraid to say, on
Father's Day. Whenever someone kept bubbling up and goes Father's Day,
they would just stare at me.

Speaker 6 (05:37):
Till one day that you should be just one day glamorous.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
What does this mean?

Speaker 5 (05:43):

Typically sequence would be good, but you know what, a
good little black dress would be nice as well.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
But what about my wife? Early banter there? Sorry, so sequence,
I don't believe that's glamorous means that here in London.
Saying I'm saying is what is the default dress code here?
Tracky Dacks I said, basically anything up from that, Sarah.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
If you're not enough boots, that's glamorous.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Jeanes.

Speaker 4 (06:25):
You've got a pair a nice, really nice pair of jeans.

Speaker 7 (06:28):

And delivered in his coffee and whatever his needs were,
snacks and he was in his element. And the chair
is still as I left for it this morning, dead
set in the middle of the mat TV.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
It looks like an outdoor chair though to me, Patsy,
it is an outdoor chair.

Speaker 7 (09:29):
It is absolutely it's not meant for indoor use, but anyway,
that's what you get with the love God. So we
did get him a jacket as well, and I bought
it online, looks like it and actually didn't open it,
so it came in the shop's packaging and the second

Speaker 1 (11:18):

yet a little slither beautiful blood moon, very rare.

Speaker 7 (11:26):
Night though powerful, crazy crazy bright night.

Speaker 8 (11:29):
Couldn't sleep properly last night.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah, it was a strange atmosphere. The weather was squarely yes,
Wizard of was in the morning, then clearing afternoon something,
then bizarrely mild.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (11:40):
Yeah, really like.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
When you're in a tropical country or something before there's
a major thunderstorm. And the atmosphere heavy with irons.

Speaker 4 (11:52):
Okay, a lot of irons fell.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
There was ion netic like crackling static static. If I
was an evil baddie, I'm not. If I was, i'd
be harnessing this right now. And it's strange laboratory. But again,
just for the record, I'm not so relaxed everybody. I
was at the servo station the other day filling out
with fuel. And by the way, why can't that be

(12:15):
easy getting out of the car with that clanky opening
it back? Everybody years? No, exactly, why can't you get
with the vacuum where you press the button and just
retracts its ownly that come on, that scientist do that? Anyway,
as I was going into pay, there was a guy
leaving who'd ordered a Mars bar and I don't mean

(12:35):
the fun size, a proper on a fist full of
Mars and he is trady and he was chomping it down,
crack crack, three bites gone.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
Wow, it's like legend.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
That's like, wow, it's too much for me. One of
those big ones.

Speaker 6 (12:50):
Yeah, those days along behind me as a teenager. Sure,
crazy young kid, but yes, no way you can be
doing that.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
In the eighties in the UK, Mars Bars had a
big national TV campaign. The slogan was a mars bar
a day keeps the doctor away. So I was thought, alrighty,
I'm not stupid. I'll have these to keep that doctor away.
And my parents double down, and my mum is a nurse,

(13:18):
she should have met her.

Speaker 4 (13:20):
Why would the mask corporation.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
You would never get away with that. Now, a mars
Bar day keeps the doctor away. I was like, thank you,
mars par a first defense against illness and viruses.

Speaker 7 (13:35):
I remember that, though, I remember the ad a Mars Day,
and I forget the other people.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
No, no, it was work, rest and play, work, question
and play. Yeah, we've got some of the old adverts
here and here's the Mars Bar one have listened to this.

the Milky Way territory more.

Speaker 4 (14:22):
It's not as sweet, it's not too sweet, it's softer.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Yeah, yeah, and a beautiful appetizer served on the plate
to impress the neighbors.

Speaker 7 (14:34):
No, I think it's the insipid chocolate bar.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
I find the mass bar too thick, dense. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
keep going with the caramel chopping and coat stick.

Speaker 7 (14:56):
What can you do with a milky bar, Mars bar.
You can make Mars bar slice true deconstructed. I used

was all closed just for her.

Speaker 1 (38:50):

a diamond from a tiara.

Speaker 5 (38:54):
But I've got something else funny, is that because we
were the cooks there, we all got a bronze medal,
which is exactly the same as what the athletes get.
We just didn't have a hole. And back then I

The fish pond is yes, the go with yeah, what
happens then yes, yes, yeah, I'll get that lawyer onto this.

Speaker 1 (52:35):
It's the main reason you've got it because you're both
Coy lovers.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
We are, we're Koy heads, the Koy community, so spin massive.

Speaker 1 (52:43):
Yeah, it is such a nice place, thanks Matte. Yeah,
by the way, if you're a painter and decorator, to
real favor, because there's a riot of colors going on
there was having it and I'm not an interior designer. Okay,
but it was orange in one room a green ceiling.

Speaker 4 (53:01):

Speaker 6 (53:21):
That is the first thing you ever rid bohemian look, yes, yeah, yeah,
it's well, we certainly do not have enough money to
paint for a while, so we better get our eyes
used to that.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
It's not cheap and painters in. No, it looks that
you can No, no, you got his backbreaking work. They
make a mess of it, the frames and all those
bits window frames.

Speaker 6 (53:39):
It's no, I'm not neither of us are people that
have that sort of skill set, but it is it
really hits the eye, doesn't.

Speaker 1 (53:48):
So I know on Friday we were talking about you
called them the tire kickers, but your mum and dad
were coming over. The leaves have flown into town from
Sydney to trying to help. Your dad was bringing their
head torch.

Speaker 6 (53:56):
Yes, yes, he was getting up into the cross space
on Saturday. He was getting into the into the garage
and looking with his little head. We're like, what's that
noise banging around?

Speaker 1 (54:03):
Child man? In the event, Bruce willis in the toy building.

Speaker 6 (54:11):
But I'm so glad they came because it was so
special to be able to like they live in Sydney.
I'm in Melbourne now, so we don't get a lot
of milestones together, so it was so nice. Like once,
I mean, it was a very stressful five hours while
we waited.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
It is stressed for buying a house, oh thet I mean,
everyone says don't get emotionally investors, but of course otherwise
it's so much money you get together that you have
to pay for the rest of your life. It is.
It's an emotional investment.

Speaker 4 (54:35):
We were so we couldn't have been more invested.

Speaker 6 (54:37):
We actually signed the contract, but then we have to
wait twenty four hours while they go looking for someone
else to gazump us. And it was just the last
five hours was so stressful because there was this other
family that had come in from the clouds and suddenly
were obsessed with the place.

Speaker 4 (54:52):
So we were so nervous for five hours waiting.

Speaker 1 (54:54):
It's terrible isn't it. But you start.

Speaker 4 (54:58):
Yeah, oh my god. I mean these family had kids.
I hated them. I'm not fir on them at all.
They've done nothing wrong.

Speaker 1 (55:04):
Two gay guys. You've got to go above those breeders
having caress your problem kid, I need that. Don't get
to attached to that those coy there.

Speaker 4 (55:13):
But it is the things we said about that family
own house auction.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
I'm like, no, wife, look at those over there trying
to get my house.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
You feel so entitled to it, and you're just like,
we're creating all this horrible backstime. Probably a lovely young family.

Speaker 1 (55:32):
Will we for sure? And imagine what you got. No, no,
I know they are not coy. Others they said they were,
but they don't know. That's not COI either. I've been
getting some four weeks. So when do you move in?

Speaker 4 (55:47):
We move in in late November, so yeah, we.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
Have Christmas together in your new home.

Speaker 6 (55:52):
Yes, yeah, we'll be able to do Christmas there. We like,
it doesn't feel real at the moment. We've always lived
in a tiny one bedroom apartment in Richmond, so the
idea that we could actually be in a real person's
house is it doesn't process with it.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
Yeah, when you say language like real persons house. I'm
not your bank, but I wouldn't be giving you a
mortgage real person's house. You're grown up now, this has
grown up level ship. The games get high when you
get to mortgage bigger than being married. It's a mortgage.

Speaker 4 (56:22):
I feel friendly overwhelmed as well. Once the joy passes,
I'm like, oh.

Speaker 1 (56:25):
My, Also, here's what I'm going to see. You've always
had this carefree way about you. On the radio show.
You probably look at me sometimes like why is he
so tense? Now you'll get it soon. Your mortgage, why
that starts coming out your bank account, that carefree nature
will just have ten percent of Yeah, suddenly you were like,
I can't lose his shoes. Mortgage. Caverrey Rio is over

(56:48):
that moment you move in and start repaying that mortgage.
The carefree days are long gone, but it is. It's
so exciting. So your mom and dad, when you've got
the phone called to say you own the place. It's yours. Yeah,
your mom and dad were there.

Speaker 4 (56:58):
Yeah, well they were in the city.

Speaker 6 (56:59):
We said you have to stay away from us because
we are an absolute mess at the moment.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
And then you're just so tense, aren't you you constantly?
Have you heard anything? Yeah, you heard anything?

Speaker 6 (57:06):
Yet we were the worst version of ourselves for that
five hours and then we just bolted into see mom
and dad get the champagne.

Speaker 4 (57:12):
So we've met them at a basket.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
Okay, so you don't get the champagne. It's mom and
dad get the champagne. Money on the house, it's coom bags.
As a welcome president, I'll get you a goombag and
some coy food. Thank you. If someone please cal show
what does happen with the fish pond when you buy
a house. I've never seen it, you know where like

(57:34):
people are moving someone you don't see them, like taking
out goldfishing in it be like bags in the hall.
Please let me know.

Christian O'Connell show on podcast.

Speaker 1 (57:47):
Christian, we have the same scenario like Rio. We bought
a new house and had a fish pond. When we
move in, the fish were left behind. Now the proud owners.
My advice to Rio is to get rid of the pond.
It will have a filter and needs to be run
all the time. Your lecteracy bills will not be great.

Speaker 4 (58:02):
Oh really, they just leave him in there?

Speaker 1 (58:04):
No, no, no, no, but that that waters get stagnant,
then it would attract on mozzies mozieh Yes, okay, maybe
I'm not.

Speaker 4 (58:13):
I'm not that attached to the point. To be honest,
we could.

Speaker 1 (58:16):
What were you two with the fish? I feel so
sorry for them. They've probably got used to those owners.
Get them away on the show Who Wants a Koi?
It won't just be one lonely old coy there.

Speaker 4 (58:25):
They need a friend.

Speaker 1 (58:26):
I think they eat each other. They're not friends. Oh,
then I've got to be on. I'm making lock this up.
I know nothing about koi other than I'm pretty sure
I didn't know where I heard it. There's certain types
of fish and a pond will just eat each other.
It's ko Yeah, they attack each other. They're very territorial
and they're in a little confined pond. Was just quickly
live googling right now, do koi eat each other?

Speaker 4 (58:48):
Sorry, it's looked up. Coyotes?

Speaker 1 (58:54):
Well do they? Maybe it's there. I got confused about them.

Speaker 4 (58:57):
They will eat the smaller fish and the bigger one.

Speaker 6 (58:59):
I guess it's like a snake's ladder situation, Like the
bigger one just keeps eating the smaller one.
