we'd have in Sydney. But it's good enough, a little
bit grainy here in the Tasmans.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
I don't know what to do, does anyone Now, I've
watched so many videos, I've downloaded the Mela pedif.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
Why would you have secret options? Why had they just
reading keep them a secret? People just want it.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
On and off that buzzer, like the secret macism.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Who suppeved in this world? Who suddenly wants a buzzer
that doesn't turn off? Letting you know the clothes dry?
Speaker 6 (05:18):

move on, Alex, what's your three word?
Speaker 5 (05:56):
Weekend pub by myself. There's something special, There's something blissful.
There's something amazing about a man going to the pub,
sitting at the bar, watching footy, having account of lunch,
no interruptions, just beer and fuddy.

in the bar or you just fairly solitude.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I'm fairly solitude because I'm zeroed into the football on
the well done.

when games on, and there's often some guy, middle aged
guy by himself who is an aggressive friend searcher.
