1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,200
Speaker 1: Well, as we know, today is indeed Police Remembrance Day

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: and it is an opportunity to reflect on the ultimate

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: sacrifice made by our very brave police officers. Now I

4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: am really pleased to say that joining me on the

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 1: line this morning are two voices that I know you'll recognize.

6
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 1: It is the absolutely wonderful Waldo and Sue. Good morning

7
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: to you both. Yay go so good. It's so lovely

8
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: to hear your voices. How things going in Tasmania?

9
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 2: Bluddy? Now I'm apart from that love.

10
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: Are you missing us?

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: No, we miss you both, but we miss your poems made.

12
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: And do you know when I realized that it was

13
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: Police Remembrance Day, I thought, I remember when you had

14
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: read me a beautiful poem a couple of years ago

15
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: for Police Remembrance Day. And then Declan who works out

16
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: in our reception, said that you'd been in contact, and

17
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: I thought, oh, that's wonderful the way the universe works,

18
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: and that you'd given us a call to jump on

19
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: and delivered that amazing poem that you have got for

20
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: Police Remembrance Day.

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 2: But we can do a poem for you more often

22
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 2: if you are well.

23
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: Just we've got it. We actually do a math challenge

24
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: on a Friday now, so what a maths challenge? So

25
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: people have a go at a different maths challenge now

26
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: on a Friday. It's notthing a bit different, mixing it up,

27
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, them having a crack at a at a

28
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 1: maths question and lots of people getting on board to

29
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: have a go at it. But we love having to

30
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: catch up with you guys. But Waldo, what do you reckon?

31
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: Do you think you could deliver that poem for us

32
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: for Remembrance Day Police Remembrance Day?

33
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: I certainly can because after I wrote it, the police

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 2: asked me could they use it? And then they unveiled

35
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: the police memorial at oh By No Road there and

36
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: that broke me up. It's Emboston Bronze on the police

37
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: memorial and it's called the Policeman from the Bush. Gwenywittson

38
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: was a family man, a fine policeman too. He loved

39
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 2: the job, his colleagues and was just like me and you.

40
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 2: We respected it all walks of life. No matter who

41
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 2: he met. You could meet a million people in your

42
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: life at Glenn. He won't forget. He touched the hearts

43
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: of all he met and many he had not. The

44
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: territory came to a halt the day Paul Glenn we shot.

45
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 2: His memory will never fade. He's always in our hearts,

46
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: a territory icon, he will always be a part. Then

47
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: people came from miles and miles and other countries too,

48
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: all here to pay their last respects for the copper.

49
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 2: They all knew the nt Aborigine gave him a secret name.

50
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 2: It is whispered now with great respect from sea to

51
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: desert plains, and the morals of this sad story to

52
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: which we can relate. There are many more out there

53
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 2: like Glenn. Please respect them. There your mates. Thank you, folks,

54
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 2: and thanks Katie. I'll put Sui back on.

55
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: Oh thank you Waldo
