55
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 4: The audience, and I was going, oh, that's great, you know, girls,

56
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 4: we wont have the fun. But it was Sidney Crawford.

57
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 4: And you have to pretend that you know, live store Hall.

58
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 4: We had one of the Spikes schools and not being

59
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 4: not having to go, and she's very busy because she

60
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 4: spent a whole time on the phone.

61
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 6: Coming after the pointing of the fingers. I don't think

62
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 6: that were every he knows that that was designed especially

63
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 6: so it was very clear where everybody's hands back.

64
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: That was the secondary.

65
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 4: It is true because you know, being men in Frank

66
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 4: schle you know where our hands are.

67
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: But that's very serious, like you know, so keep the

68
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: old hands up. Figures? What what?

69
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 3: What was the first reason? Is there another?

70
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 5: We were on tour somewhere out back somewhere and we

71
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 5: had a day off and there wasn't much to do

72
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 5: wherever we were, so we're all watching TV and these

73
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 5: we saw ten pin bowling I think was the ABC

74
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 5: ten pin bowling match, and these two guys whenever they

75
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,720

00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 6: It is on those flammable, shiny black pants. I keep

116
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 6: thinking of potatoes when you have to dance. If those

117
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 6: pants have are caught on fire, they're starting to smoke

118
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:37,159

123
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 6: mind seeing you do the propeller. Take off your skivvy

124
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 6: and do some a cappella but I think you're the

125
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 6: finest of all the men.

126
00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 3: Or is that all right?

127
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,320

Speaker 7: up boys next. Yes, the Wiggles.

133
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 5: O ge are still kicking, but your radio shows more

134
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 5: like a dinosaur exhibition. Sure, the wheels on the bus

135
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 5: go round and round, but they're driving Fitzy to the

136
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 5: nursing home compound.

137
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,040

00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: his knees. They're looking hectic.

139
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 5: One of the skivvys. We're just normal blokes, but.

140
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: We're still younger than Fitzies jokes.

141
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 6: He's got a point, he's got a point.

142
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 5: And before we could lend you a skivvy, of course,

143
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 5: but very quickly it will be stayed with pasta saw

144
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 5: sadly's me saying no to the fruit salad? Is it

145
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 5: hard to find the health food in that palace?

146
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,840
