<v Speaker 3>last snippet, right.

0:01:21.761 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 1>It was you. You looked like a woman possessed.

0:01:25.481 --> 0:01:28.041
<v Speaker 3>Oh my gosh, it was fresh, remember, like it was

0:01:28.081 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 3>so fresh, I think I'd slept on it and everything.

0:01:30.881 --> 0:01:32.321
<v Speaker 3>And then as soon as I saw you, I was

0:01:32.401 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 3>just like, ah, like this is happening.

0:01:34.401 --> 0:01:35.041
<v Speaker 1>You were triggered.

0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:38.081
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and then you just backed me up and supported

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:40.200
<v Speaker 3>the cause and said that your daughter had done the

0:01:40.200 --> 0:01:44.481
<v Speaker 3>same same We're all the same thing. And then one

0:01:44.521 --> 0:01:46.481
<v Speaker 3>of the other girls comes through and says, that's why

0:01:46.481 --> 0:01:48.521
<v Speaker 3>I told you to buy the six dollar lunch boxes

0:01:48.561 --> 0:01:52.441
<v Speaker 3>from Aldi. Oh did you know no Bento boxes? Six

0:01:52.481 --> 0:01:56.041
<v Speaker 3>dollars from Aldi? Ah, so much better, good quality. Yeah,

0:01:56.081 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 3>and she said, and then you can get a couple

0:01:57.721 --> 0:01:59.521
<v Speaker 3>so when they lose them, we just take another one

0:01:59.561 --> 0:02:02.241
<v Speaker 3>out of the cupboard. Yeah, okay, Amanda, you were far

0:02:02.281 --> 0:02:03.041
<v Speaker 3>too organized.

0:02:03.121 --> 0:02:06.881
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's less annoying. Yeah, six dollars. Yours was like

0:02:07.001 --> 0:02:07.881
<v Speaker 2>forty dollars.

0:02:07.881 --> 0:02:12.201
<v Speaker 3>It was not six dollars. Un. I always like choked, going,

0:02:12.321 --> 0:02:15.441
<v Speaker 3>oh my gosh. But again, it's fine.

0:02:15.361 --> 0:02:18.001
<v Speaker 2>Spend forty dollars on your own lunch box because you

0:02:18.041 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>know that you're not losing that.

0:02:20.201 --> 0:02:24.281

<v Speaker 3>coust me forty dollars yeah, that's never been lost. No,

0:02:28.041 --> 0:02:40.081
<v Speaker 3>that's always been returned. Am I a bad mum for

0:02:40.441 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 3>not paying attention to the actual foot that's broken?

0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:46.361
<v Speaker 1>Oh god, this is giving me deja vou.

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.521
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I thought of you. It was a week ago

0:02:50.001 --> 0:02:54.601
<v Speaker 3>my niece turned ten, and off everybody went to a

0:02:54.641 --> 0:02:59.041
<v Speaker 3>birthday party for Sophie Claire. Sorry, so I think it's

0:02:59.081 --> 0:03:01.041
<v Speaker 3>my second or third year that I've missed your birthday

0:03:01.041 --> 0:03:02.481
<v Speaker 3>party because I was working to.

0:03:02.761 --> 0:03:07.601

<v Speaker 2>girls will be there, I'll be at work.

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:14.041
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I genuinely laughed when I was like, oh, tough sitch,

0:03:14.121 --> 0:03:18.201
<v Speaker 3>I'm working again. Nanadee took the girls along to the

0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:23.001
<v Speaker 3>birthday party, which was like an inflatable world obstacle course

0:03:23.081 --> 0:03:24.120
<v Speaker 3>back on the water.

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:27.081
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, you didn't actually have works.

0:03:28.161 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, do you promise I've got footage? So off I

0:03:31.321 --> 0:03:32.361
<v Speaker 3>went cat footage.

0:03:32.441 --> 0:03:36.521
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, in case no one believed you.

0:03:37.601 --> 0:03:39.720
<v Speaker 3>There's been a few times where you've questioned me and gone,

0:03:39.761 --> 0:03:41.801
<v Speaker 3>you weren't really there, were you? You were just no?

0:03:41.881 --> 0:03:43.401
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't. I promise, No, I don't know.

0:03:43.521 --> 0:03:45.880
<v Speaker 2>It was one of those situations where someone went, could

0:03:45.961 --> 0:03:47.521
<v Speaker 2>you cover my shift, and you went.

0:03:47.441 --> 0:03:50.001
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, i'll do it. I'll take a whole day. How

0:03:50.041 --> 0:03:55.161
<v Speaker 3>many shifts can I have? So yeah, off they go

0:03:55.201 --> 0:03:57.521
<v Speaker 3>and they do that. That's all well and good. Now

0:03:57.681 --> 0:04:01.361
<v Speaker 3>this day in particular was really windy, and this obstacle

0:04:01.401 --> 0:04:04.121
<v Speaker 3>course is an inflatable one which is on open like

0:04:04.201 --> 0:04:06.401
<v Speaker 3>it's on the sea, like it's not in a lake.

0:04:06.801 --> 0:04:09.481
<v Speaker 3>This is actually on the beach. So there was like

0:04:09.561 --> 0:04:13.201
<v Speaker 3>white peak like surf breaking and this whole thing's going

0:04:13.361 --> 0:04:17.721
<v Speaker 3>like I'm talking like my niece whose birthday, buddy it was.

0:04:17.921 --> 0:04:21.081
<v Speaker 3>She vomited out on the course twice because you had seasick,

0:04:21.121 --> 0:04:23.640
<v Speaker 3>but she just kept going, oh god, that's how rough.

0:04:23.641 --> 0:04:27.121
<v Speaker 2>It was so big inflatables, but they're out in the ocean.

0:04:27.201 --> 0:04:29.001
<v Speaker 1>But is it like protected by anything.

0:04:29.121 --> 0:04:31.521
<v Speaker 3>Well, I don't know. I didn't like in red clears.

0:04:31.401 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 1>What happens if they just fall off the edge?

0:04:33.241 --> 0:04:35.641
<v Speaker 3>I know they have to swim back or something. I'm

0:04:35.681 --> 0:04:38.521
<v Speaker 3>not sure. It wasn't there the wave teket Yeah, yeah,

0:04:38.561 --> 0:04:40.161
<v Speaker 3>you have to do anyway, even if you're on that.

0:04:40.281 --> 0:04:42.481
<v Speaker 3>The one at the like at the Sunny Coast that

0:04:42.481 --> 0:04:46.041
<v Speaker 3>we've done before is really like challenging. It's not even windy.

0:04:46.081 --> 0:04:50.361
<v Speaker 3>It's not even rough. It's challenging full stop. All went well,

0:04:50.561 --> 0:04:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Like I said, a few of them had little bombs

0:04:52.761 --> 0:04:55.640
<v Speaker 3>here and there that had seasickness, so I would have

0:04:55.641 --> 0:04:59.201
<v Speaker 3>been a treat out there. Then Gracie said she heard

0:04:59.241 --> 0:05:02.121
<v Speaker 3>the buzzy go and that means you've got to come

0:05:02.161 --> 0:05:04.401
<v Speaker 3>in for the next session to start. And she said

0:05:04.401 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 3>she sort of went to turn around. Her foot has

0:05:08.361 --> 0:05:10.520
<v Speaker 3>gone one way, her body has gone the other way,

0:05:10.561 --> 0:05:12.361
<v Speaker 3>and a wavers caught her at the same time.

0:05:12.561 --> 0:05:14.721
<v Speaker 1>Oh god, this place sounds horrible.

0:05:15.001 --> 0:05:17.361
<v Speaker 3>Yes, So then my brother is out there, Luke, Like,

0:05:17.481 --> 0:05:19.961
<v Speaker 3>Uncle Luke's like, come on, you'll be fine, like knowing

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.721
<v Speaker 3>that sometimes with Gracy girl it can be a little

0:05:23.721 --> 0:05:26.481
<v Speaker 3>bit of drama that's spun on it, and so he

0:05:26.561 --> 0:05:28.320
<v Speaker 3>was like, come on, oh, you'll be right, And he said,

0:05:28.401 --> 0:05:30.401
<v Speaker 3>I felt bad because I was like just ushering in,

0:05:30.521 --> 0:05:32.441
<v Speaker 3>going you'll be fine. It's you know, it's just you've

0:05:32.521 --> 0:05:33.721
<v Speaker 3>hurt your little toa. It's fine.

0:05:33.801 --> 0:05:35.041
<v Speaker 1>So he was on the course.

0:05:35.201 --> 0:05:36.681
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he was out there. He had to be because

0:05:36.681 --> 0:05:39.201
<v Speaker 3>you to have a number of like adults per child

0:05:39.281 --> 0:05:42.841
<v Speaker 3>when they're under a certain age. Lucky Uncle Luke.

0:05:43.041 --> 0:05:46.641
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, was this like almost like a punishment for him

0:05:46.681 --> 0:05:47.481
<v Speaker 2>not having kids.

0:05:47.561 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, here you go, he said.

0:05:48.921 --> 0:05:51.481
<v Speaker 3>He felt a bit like motion sickness too. He was

0:05:51.561 --> 0:05:54.121
<v Speaker 3>like it was hectic. He's like, it was so crazy

0:05:54.121 --> 0:05:57.081
<v Speaker 3>out there. They all had fun, but poor Gracie's pulled

0:05:57.161 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 3>up with the injury. That's all well and good. Now

0:06:00.001 --> 0:06:01.961
<v Speaker 3>by the time I get home from a massive day

0:06:01.961 --> 0:06:05.921
<v Speaker 3>at work, I'm rocking in. Yeah, no, it really was,

0:06:05.921 --> 0:06:08.521
<v Speaker 3>I promise. I was super tired. But at the same

0:06:08.521 --> 0:06:11.281
<v Speaker 3>time I come home to then seeing my child on crutches.

0:06:11.681 --> 0:06:13.721
<v Speaker 3>Oh god. And I looked at it and I was like,

0:06:13.801 --> 0:06:16.761
<v Speaker 3>this is really necessary a little toe. Come on, dar,

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:18.520
<v Speaker 3>you don't need that. Just try and apply a little

0:06:18.521 --> 0:06:20.401
<v Speaker 3>bit of pressure on the inside of your foot to

0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:23.241
<v Speaker 3>carry the outside. We will put it up breastt all

0:06:23.241 --> 0:06:23.841
<v Speaker 3>the other stuff.

0:06:23.921 --> 0:06:25.161
<v Speaker 1>Suck it up, have a glass of water.

0:06:25.361 --> 0:06:28.681
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. So then Monday morning comes, no pressure being applied

0:06:28.681 --> 0:06:32.001
<v Speaker 3>to foot, and it was not getting better, Like it

0:06:32.041 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 3>didn't look any better. It was actually looking like it

0:06:34.401 --> 0:06:37.921
<v Speaker 3>was getting worse. But because it was the start the

0:06:37.961 --> 0:06:41.600
<v Speaker 3>first day of the second week of high school, one

0:06:41.641 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 3>couldn't miss out. So if we go to high school,

0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.681
<v Speaker 3>which her high school is full of stairs and so again,

0:06:47.761 --> 0:06:49.841
<v Speaker 3>because we're both learning the ropes. I didn't know that

0:06:49.921 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 3>I needed to tell any teachers that she's on crutches.

0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:58.281
<v Speaker 3>I also didn't know how definitive this whole school was

0:06:58.601 --> 0:07:03.481
<v Speaker 3>via stairs. Tough situation to be on crutches. Yeah, it'd

0:07:03.521 --> 0:07:06.760
<v Speaker 3>been a whole day at school looking worse for whar

0:07:07.641 --> 0:07:09.321
<v Speaker 3>I was like, put to my ice on it. You'll

0:07:09.361 --> 0:07:11.041
<v Speaker 3>be fine for your foot up. It's a broken toe.

0:07:11.121 --> 0:07:13.841
<v Speaker 3>We can't do anything with it. Worst case scenario, broken toe.

0:07:13.921 --> 0:07:16.561
<v Speaker 3>You don't do anything with a broken toe, no up

0:07:16.601 --> 0:07:18.441
<v Speaker 3>than rest and strap it.

0:07:18.601 --> 0:07:21.761
<v Speaker 2>So we did that, probably not walk up and downstairs

0:07:21.841 --> 0:07:22.641
<v Speaker 2>at school.

0:07:25.401 --> 0:07:28.521
<v Speaker 3>Anyways. And then comes a Tuesday. I said to her, look,

0:07:28.601 --> 0:07:30.641
<v Speaker 3>just stay home. No, no, I've got to go to school.

0:07:30.801 --> 0:07:33.121
<v Speaker 3>I've got to go. So I thought, why am I

0:07:33.161 --> 0:07:35.321
<v Speaker 3>going to get an X ray for you? If? Anyway?

0:07:35.561 --> 0:07:40.001
<v Speaker 3>Long story short, telehealth doctor calls me really nice, really

0:07:40.041 --> 0:07:45.681
<v Speaker 3>lovely gentlemen, So what foot is it? I was like.

0:07:49.921 --> 0:07:50.481
<v Speaker 1>One of them.

0:07:50.641 --> 0:07:53.881
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh, that's a good question. I can

0:07:53.881 --> 0:07:56.161
<v Speaker 3>feel him judging me through the phone.

0:07:56.401 --> 0:07:58.041
<v Speaker 1>Why does it even matter what foot it is?

0:07:58.081 --> 0:07:59.801
<v Speaker 3>Because he goes, I can't give you an X ray.

0:08:00.161 --> 0:08:02.561
<v Speaker 3>Consult thing to take to get an X ray if

0:08:02.561 --> 0:08:05.161
<v Speaker 3>I don't have the exact foot that's on that. I

0:08:05.201 --> 0:08:07.041
<v Speaker 3>was like, there's no need to be rude about that.

0:08:07.121 --> 0:08:08.721
<v Speaker 3>It's not my fault that I can't think about what

0:08:08.761 --> 0:08:10.961
<v Speaker 3>foot is broken of hers right now. I just can't

0:08:11.001 --> 0:08:12.761
<v Speaker 3>think if it's left or right, and it goes well,

0:08:12.761 --> 0:08:15.681
<v Speaker 3>I can't give you the consult form then until you

0:08:15.721 --> 0:08:18.401
<v Speaker 3>get me the right foot, so judge it.

0:08:18.481 --> 0:08:20.721
<v Speaker 1>Can you just write on can you just put foot

0:08:20.921 --> 0:08:22.361
<v Speaker 1>X ray? Like TBC.

0:08:25.521 --> 0:08:27.801
<v Speaker 3>I could hear him, I could hear the judgment. It

0:08:27.921 --> 0:08:30.081
<v Speaker 3>was like seeping through the phone. And you know when

0:08:30.121 --> 0:08:33.841
<v Speaker 3>you like feel someone's judgment, especially about parenting, you're already

0:08:33.921 --> 0:08:36.561
<v Speaker 3>like like, it just gets you like wild. It doesn't

0:08:36.561 --> 0:08:38.161
<v Speaker 3>take me much to get over that, but I just

0:08:38.241 --> 0:08:40.201
<v Speaker 3>literally get wild. And then I was like oh, and

0:08:40.241 --> 0:08:42.761
<v Speaker 3>then thinking in my head, I'm trying to strategize how

0:08:42.841 --> 0:08:44.801
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to work out which foot It was whilst

0:08:44.881 --> 0:08:46.321
<v Speaker 3>keeping him on the phone because I said, I'm not

0:08:46.321 --> 0:08:47.601
<v Speaker 3>going to be able to speak to him again. You

0:08:47.641 --> 0:08:50.281
<v Speaker 3>can't ring a doctor back like that. There's another whole

0:08:50.281 --> 0:08:53.281
<v Speaker 3>process in itself. So it's like trying to think where

0:08:53.281 --> 0:08:55.481
<v Speaker 3>would her other shoe be because she's I knew she

0:08:55.521 --> 0:08:57.921
<v Speaker 3>went to school with one shoe on but only a

0:08:57.961 --> 0:08:59.201
<v Speaker 3>sock on the other. So I was like, if I

0:08:59.201 --> 0:09:01.801
<v Speaker 3>can just find that shoe, for the love of God,

0:09:02.001 --> 0:09:05.321
<v Speaker 3>I could not find the shoe. I was like, he goes,

0:09:05.321 --> 0:09:06.841
<v Speaker 3>I have to go. I'll tell your health a point.

0:09:07.561 --> 0:09:09.921
<v Speaker 3>I was like, yep, no worries. I'll find out the

0:09:09.921 --> 0:09:12.281
<v Speaker 3>foot that's broken on my child and I'll come back

0:09:12.281 --> 0:09:12.401
<v Speaker 3>to you.

0:09:12.641 --> 0:09:16.121
<v Speaker 2>I've literally paid no attention. I told her to suck

0:09:16.161 --> 0:09:17.481
<v Speaker 2>it up, keep hopping.

0:09:17.801 --> 0:09:19.601
<v Speaker 3>Was it actually just before you go? I was like,

0:09:19.721 --> 0:09:21.521
<v Speaker 3>and just in case we don't catch eatail and I

0:09:21.561 --> 0:09:24.241
<v Speaker 3>don't get the X ray, let's just say worst case

0:09:24.241 --> 0:09:27.161
<v Speaker 3>scenario if it is broken. From a doctor's perspective, much

0:09:27.281 --> 0:09:30.721
<v Speaker 3>can be done for those sorts of situations. He was like, Rachel,

0:09:30.721 --> 0:09:32.561
<v Speaker 3>we need to know if it's broken or not to

0:09:32.601 --> 0:09:36.161
<v Speaker 3>give you the right the directions, like the right instruction.

0:09:36.281 --> 0:09:38.001
<v Speaker 3>You know. I mean, but it's like kind of like

0:09:38.041 --> 0:09:40.841
<v Speaker 3>strapping it would be good, right, strapping it and keep

0:09:40.881 --> 0:09:43.881
<v Speaker 3>elevating it. Doing that can't do much for a little toe.

0:09:44.401 --> 0:09:46.801
<v Speaker 3>He's like, again, I'll speak to you when you work

0:09:46.801 --> 0:09:48.401
<v Speaker 3>out which foot it is of your child.

0:09:48.641 --> 0:09:54.281
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh, yeah, side story on that. My

0:09:54.441 --> 0:09:56.921
<v Speaker 2>sister when she was about four, broke her leg ice

0:09:56.921 --> 0:09:59.841
<v Speaker 2>skating and my dad took her to the hospital and

0:10:00.001 --> 0:10:02.321
<v Speaker 2>they x rayed the leg and they were like, no,

0:10:02.441 --> 0:10:05.881
<v Speaker 2>she's all good, Like she's fine, good to go, got

0:10:05.881 --> 0:10:07.801
<v Speaker 2>in the car. My sister went, why did they x

0:10:07.881 --> 0:10:11.161
<v Speaker 2>ray the other leg? My dam was so embarrassed. He

0:10:11.241 --> 0:10:13.721
<v Speaker 2>took her back to another hospital, a different one, so

0:10:13.761 --> 0:10:14.401
<v Speaker 2>he didn't.

0:10:14.121 --> 0:10:14.841
<v Speaker 1>Have to go back.

0:10:15.001 --> 0:10:18.281
<v Speaker 3>I think Katie I would do the same. I'd be horrified.

0:10:18.521 --> 0:10:21.641
<v Speaker 3>I was horrified at myself two days with this child

0:10:21.761 --> 0:10:24.641
<v Speaker 3>with the same broken foot, and I couldn't work out

0:10:24.641 --> 0:10:26.441
<v Speaker 3>which food it was. And I'm thinking, I'm trying to

0:10:26.441 --> 0:10:28.761
<v Speaker 3>picture in my head, like if I was facing this

0:10:28.801 --> 0:10:31.481
<v Speaker 3>way and she was facing this way, what I was like.

0:10:33.001 --> 0:10:34.281
<v Speaker 1>You know, let's look at the positives.

0:10:34.281 --> 0:10:37.921
<v Speaker 2>You didn't have to go on that god awful in

0:10:37.961 --> 0:10:38.801
<v Speaker 2>the ocean.

0:10:38.641 --> 0:10:40.761
<v Speaker 3>You know. I felt sorry for Gracie.

0:10:40.841 --> 0:10:44.801
<v Speaker 2>But what's happening next year for Sophie's party? If it's

0:10:44.841 --> 0:10:47.281
<v Speaker 2>at the same place, another day of busy work.

0:10:49.601 --> 0:10:52.441
<v Speaker 3>I'll be working. You're not even rosted. I'll be working.

0:10:53.401 --> 0:10:54.241
<v Speaker 3>Don't even ask me
