Speaker 2: We are in may I know, tell me about it.
Speaker 1: That's like we're halfway through the year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we are. It really ramps up right now. We
Speaker 2: go into full swing of every sport you can think of,
Speaker 2: every dance competition that's physically available in Brisbane. Are rocked
Speaker 2: up to dance to practice her production and clearly I
Speaker 2: had got myself so mixed up Katie. I brought the
Speaker 2: wrong costume and she goes, no, we're not wearing that costume.
Speaker 2: We're wearing this costume. And then you needed to bring
Speaker 2: that Did you bring that other costume? No? I didn't.
Speaker 2: And then Paul Gracie's standing there looking at me, going
Speaker 2: I've got all.
Speaker 1: The wrong stuff and it's your fault.
Speaker 2: Luckily it was all practice. It was all practice. It's fine.
Speaker 2: But she even made comment was like, oh is that
Speaker 2: what she's wearing? Well, clearly not. Her mom is just
Speaker 2: useless and missed the whole brief of two dancers, two dances, Katie,
Speaker 2: how do you mess that up? And then I had
Speaker 2: two moms come up to me and go, did you
Speaker 2: have a big weekend? You look really tired. You look
Speaker 2: really tired.
Speaker 1: You look tired. That's such an insult me. I was right,
Speaker 1: I went to bed at seven o'clock. Am I a
Speaker 1: bad mum for putting a stop to it. My kids,
Speaker 1: as we know, are obsessed with concerts, obsessed. They want
Speaker 1: to go to everything. They wanted to go to Lady
Speaker 1: Gaga recently. I'm like, do you even know who she is?
Speaker 2: Like? I think every hours, Like everyone knows who Lady
Speaker 2: Gaga is. And Lady Gaga is playing at SUNCRP for
Speaker 2: any one that's in Brisbane. But you've got to be
Speaker 2: like selling a kidney to be able to get there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so expensive. Because Holly went she was banging on,
Speaker 1: do you want to get a Lady Gaga? Like we
Speaker 1: really want you to come, blah blah blah blahah Oh
Speaker 1: that's nice. I want to hang out with us.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: No, they wanted us to pay for the tickets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and she said, and then she made a comment of going,
Speaker 1: I only want to spend my money on the artist
Speaker 1: that I really really want to see. I was like, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: so you want me to pay money, not only to
Speaker 1: pay the money for the tickets, but me to pay
Speaker 1: money for tickets to a concert that you don't really
Speaker 1: really want to see.
Speaker 2: My answer is no, I said, I don't want to
Speaker 2: go see Lady Gargina.
Speaker 1: We are not going.
Speaker 2: Lady Gaga, are not. They are obsessed with concert concepts.
Speaker 1: Gracie Abrams.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my girls are also going to Gracie. I actually
Speaker 2: know about three songs. Yeahs Lisa.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not going. But the thing is, and you'll
Speaker 1: remember probably me talking about Billie Eilish and what with
Speaker 1: them camping out for Billie Eilish to make sure that
Speaker 1: they got barricade. It's called they were going to be
Speaker 1: at the front. It was a mission. The same thing
Speaker 1: happened again, Rach. I remember when they book the tickets
Speaker 1: and they said we want to camp out. I said,
Speaker 1: absolutely not. You are not doing that again. As it
Speaker 1: got closer to the day, Jay realized that the concert
Speaker 1: was on a Tuesday, and actually the public holiday was
Speaker 1: on Monday. And so then we started thinking allowing them
Speaker 1: to camp out, thinking, well, the Monday's a public holiday anyway,
Speaker 1: Tuesday is the day of the concert. Yeah, Ye're right,
Speaker 1: And so they did it all again, Rach. They went
Speaker 1: on Sunday and they're on the like tiktoks and the
Speaker 1: bloody snapchat whatever they're researching when people are arriving. They
Speaker 1: got winds that people would camping already, and so they
Speaker 1: freaked out and was like, we have to go on
Speaker 1: the Sunday, and we were like okay, And I think
Speaker 1: in my mind, I kind of thought, well, knowing what
Speaker 1: we know from last time, it's a nice little community
Speaker 1: of people. It feels very unsafe to leave your sixteen
Speaker 1: year old daughters in a tent boondle train station overnight.
Speaker 1: And I wasn't okay with that the first time around,
Speaker 1: and that's why Jay there with them this time. I
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, I think I'm alright with it because
Speaker 1: there's lots of them. They're not there on their own.
Speaker 1: So they stayed in a tent that first night. It
Speaker 1: rained a lot that night, right, so they called me
Speaker 1: in the morning and when all our stuff swet, everything
Speaker 1: was wet from it was water was coming in underneath
Speaker 1: and obviously the sides where things were touching the sides,
Speaker 1: and so they were soaked and they were cold, and
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, you're nipping the budgy go home.
Speaker 1: Do you want to go home? No, we've done this far.
Speaker 1: We've got you know, our wristbands. Blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: Second night, I left my car down there. More than rage.
Speaker 1: I slept in the car.
Speaker 2: Look, I think it's a bit safe fur than tense,
Speaker 2: if I'm honest.
Speaker 1: Honestly, I wish i'd taken photos. We had a bloody
Speaker 1: sunshade for the front window, so they had a little
Speaker 1: bit of privacy. I had tea towels hanging from each window.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they would have been at least warmer, Yeah, safer.
Speaker 2: Lock the doors.
Speaker 1: They were in their reach with their laptops doing their
Speaker 1: fucking assignment for school that they hadn't finished in the
Speaker 1: school holidays. It's like, this is insane. I went from thinking, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, let them, you know, then let them melt Robins, Yeah,
Speaker 1: says let them. I'm like, okay, let them. And I
Speaker 1: was like, no, this is still actually really stressful for me.
Speaker 1: I'm getting phone calls all the time. I'm needing to
Speaker 1: take down food. If I don't take down food, rache,
Speaker 1: they just get Uber eats and its statched to my
Speaker 1: car and I'm like, you're not just constantly getting Uber
Speaker 1: eat Yeah yeah, yeah, And so I have now gone
Speaker 1: this is stressful, but it's also expensive. Yeah, even the
Speaker 1: bloody sunshade I got for the front of the cars
Speaker 1: one hundred dollars. I was like, I literally don't even
Speaker 1: need this after this, it's.
Speaker 2: Wrong with you. Why did we one hundred dollars for that?
Speaker 1: Because nothing was open on the public holiday. It's indeed bloody.
Speaker 1: Where did you go fishing, BCFC?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I thought you could still wire them from
Speaker 2: like petrol stations. Petrol station, Yeah, is that all they are?
Speaker 2: Like the foil thing that goes across the front just
Speaker 2: to protect like to keep heat out of your car. Yeah,
Speaker 2: one hundred dollars. Was it made of gold? Should be
Speaker 2: telling you, I've never seen it so expensive, But I
Speaker 2: mean it was a public holiday.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I said to them, like this has cost so much,
Speaker 1: Bunny and yeah, this and this was that. But they
Speaker 1: were like, thank you so much for buying that. But
Speaker 1: we didn't ask you to get that. You got that
Speaker 1: because you're a nice person. I went, oh, thank you
Speaker 1: because I wanted this is the thing, though, Rache, just
Speaker 1: because I wanted them to have a bit of privacy.
Speaker 1: And when I think to myself, if I was sleeping
Speaker 1: in my car, which I hope I never am. Then
Speaker 1: would I want something covering the windows? Yeah, yes I would.
Speaker 1: But what I've got to remember is actually they didn't
Speaker 1: really care.
Speaker 2: No, it was me that that I would have loved
Speaker 2: to see if you hadn't gone out of your way
Speaker 2: to get that sort of stuff, what they would have
Speaker 2: come up with themselves if they got halfway through and
Speaker 2: was like, oh, you know, I need some privacy in here. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like what would towel? You could have gone a towel.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rache. I don't think that they even got changed.
Speaker 1: I think they just stayed in the same clothes. And
Speaker 1: you know what my kids are like, they're a bit
Speaker 1: ocd with showers and stuff. No, it goes out the
Speaker 1: window when they're camps with right, they enjoy it, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I readly enjoy it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 1: But I'm putting a stop to it because it's too stressful.
Speaker 1: It's too much.
Speaker 2: You need to get your card off their oubies. You
Speaker 2: need to get your card deleted, and not just.
Speaker 1: That, like there's a laziness around. They will order Uber
Speaker 1: eats even when they're home during this skit. Yes, I
Speaker 1: have to put a stop to that and go no,
Speaker 1: make yourself down. But also the lunch box food you
Speaker 1: buy being eaten at home, that really gets someone of
Speaker 1: you don't need prepacked cheese and crackers, oh home, just
Speaker 1: slice the cheese.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or buy the tasty slices like and then you
Speaker 2: just get a few slices out and layer.
Speaker 1: That convenience food for lunch boxes. If you're at home,
Speaker 1: you make it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one hundred. Speaking about food, this is where I
Speaker 2: went because we know how much Ice sidetrack on this.
Speaker 2: But like, speaking of food, how has your cat's appetite
Speaker 2: gone since he had his seven thousand dollars surgery? I
Speaker 2: need to follow up to the I just thought of him.
Speaker 2: Your kids might not eat at home, but gosh, your
Speaker 2: cat does and he had surgery. Has he found his
Speaker 2: appetite yet? Yes?
Speaker 1: Back in he's adding again he's not as extreme as
Speaker 1: he once was. Okay, I'm just going to keep giving
Speaker 1: him what he wants from now on. That cat cost
Speaker 1: me seven thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he's like basically gold. He's gold walking around
Speaker 2: on legs.
Speaker 1: Wait, a couple of days after the surgery he went missing.
Speaker 1: I didn't know where he was. I was looking everywhere.
Speaker 1: I was looking in under beds and everywhere, and I
Speaker 1: was like, if he's gone and fucking died after I
Speaker 1: spent seven thousand dollars, I am going to be so bad.
Speaker 2: I found him, luckily, It's like you're he was just
Speaker 2: hiding in the bread bin.
