enough friends left because they all die before you.

Okay, So first we're told it took a bit of
time to get into the boat safely, you know, to
get you in there.

Once the boat you were pretty comfortable, The captain asked
if you were ready for your first spin. Let's hear
how you felt once the boat took off, and did that.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
We better have a look at each other, because we
rode up the same when I think we're starting, I
think we're starting. Oh, we're off now I want to
go faster. We made all that frap. I'm alive.

Yeah, I could get you some stuff from Patch generation.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
They were the real pioneer women. If they had no outfit,
out would come the singer sewing machine, right, Pat, you'd
whip yourself. You don't have to have all the money
to go to Westfield. You'd sew up your own outfit.

frock to wear out, Jackie.
