Speaker 1 (00:00):
So on the weekend, Rob we decided it was time
to go and get the suits for Pete's wedding. When
Pete's getting married in.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
When, Oh wow, yeah, that's really early for a bunch
of guys like I would have thought it was the
weekend before.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Pete's organized.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Pete's a very organized man and he generally rango you Pete.
He's the one, like, if we ever go on a
group holiday, Pete organizes it. He's the one that books.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
You are getting yourself into strive. It's because Pete's not there.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
In fact, that's been the hardest.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
The hardest thing with the Bucks is that he's the groom,
so he can't organize it. And we're all like, but
this is your job, Pete, this is what you do.
So we're all together, but we have to do it right.
But that's fine. We're getting we're getting ahead around that.
So on on the weekend we went to Indra Pilly
and it was it was Pete obviously, then then me Grant,
(00:52):
he's his best man who's a landscaper, and and then
you got Toby who's mutual friend of ours. And Toby's there,
he's also a grousman, but Toby's the one that cares
about fashion.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
He's oh, okay, So we've got to get it past
Toby before everyone says okay.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
So much so that the bride is in contact with
Toby to make sure that we do the right things
because she knows, she knows she can trust Toby to
get the message.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Oh, I love it, Toby, I love it Toby.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Toby's the only straight mail I know that's ever used
the term retail therapy and was talking about himself shopping
for clothes. I just find that I've never heard of it.
I love him his finger you would, No, he's not.
It's merit. He's very, very happily married.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
I'm joking, but that's that's an amazing quality in.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
A bloke, like really, and it is good to have.
It was great to have him there because you know,
we went to the first shop and we all tried
on suits and thought this looks these look great. We're
all like that, Well, I'm happy, and Pete said I'm happy,
and Grant was happy, and Toby said, come on, we
need to We can't just be in the first shop.
We need to go and check out some other things.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
You can.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
When you're a bunch of blokes, guess you can. You've
got it, do it, nailed it.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
We could have just nailed it, but we did it.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
We walked out and we went and had a look,
and we went to this shop and that job. And
when all these other places three are like, we'd spend
another couple of hours and guess what the first place was,
the most first place.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
You went back there and bought them.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Pretty much. We haven't. We haven't signed the deal.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
We've got measured up, we got measured up, and we're all.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Ready to go. But here's my suspicion. And I've got
Toby on the phone here. I don't think Toby liked
the suits that we that we picked.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Oh hey, Toby, how are you?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Good?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Okay, ignore Kip, he's not in this conversation. Did you
like the suits? Tell me honestly, yeah, no, he didn't know.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
He didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
I like with clothes, particularly for something like you're wedding.
I'd just like to take my time and you find
the right thing and not just you know, rushed to
the first, you know, just to get the job done.
But I think in the end, we you know, we'll
get there with some tailoring and whatnot. But yeah, it's
not necessarily I would have gone.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
About, yeah, right, it is.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Yeah, he's not happy because it's not my day.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
So you know, I'm just I'm along for the ride
and adding my two bits where I.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Can, And he did. He did specify that the groom
is actually going to wear a different jacket for us,
and Toby has sent him elsewhere because that needs to
be more special than the rest of us.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Definitely, that will definitely work out.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Well, I me so, yeah, yeah, So I think I
think the bribe was very happy to have Toby there
with us, making sure that we weren't making the decisions
between me, Pete and another landscape. But we just don't
know what we're talking about, and we were very happy.
And I think the other thing that that was it
was noticeable about about Pete Grant and I Tooby is
that if you had two jackets that look basically the same,
(03:53):
and one of them was one hundred dollars and one
of them was three hundred dollars, we're all happy with
one hundred dollars jacket. Were we more was like, but
look at the style, We're like, it's the same.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yeah, yeah, Toby's losing the battle well and truly yes,
but he.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Was the position I just sort of fall into line
and just do my bit.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
So he was very helpful.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
It was good to have a Toby there.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
But I did say that if my dad had been there, we.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Would we never would have gone to a second store
because he is the fastest shop I've ever seen. He's
not interested in second opinions. He's not interested. If it fits,
you're good, go pay for it and go get out
of there. Get out. You could be having lunch, just go.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
And it got me, Thank you, Toby.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
It got me wondering is there someone you can't Is
there someone you can't shop with? Because I couldn't, Like
I can't shop with my sister cannot she thinks so much,
she was, she will spend so much time, she'll go back,
she'll think about it, she'll try, and she's doing.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Me economical thing, mate. I don't think looking at all
the options.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I don't think it's economy. I think it's just it's
a failure to be able to make a decision. It's
just so annoying. Yeah, I can make a decisions.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, that's why Toby came along. Right, because you can
make a decision.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Yes, and he's there to stop me from making it
as he didn't. Yes, yeah, probably thirty one oh six
five
