Speaker 1: Take care, Ian, Good morning.
Speaker 4: Good morning. How are you guys?
Speaker 1: I'm good. So why did your parents get caught to
Speaker 1: your school? Then?
Speaker 4: Well, my brother and I were walking to school one day,
Speaker 4: this is like fifty years ago, and there was a
Speaker 4: construction site and we sort of climbed in under the
Speaker 4: fence and went into the shed and found these what
Speaker 4: there was twenty seven what we thought were fireworks, and
Speaker 4: it's fine. So we took them to school and I
Speaker 4: was walking around school selling them for ten cents a stick,
Speaker 4: and I hadn't be known to me I had twenty
Speaker 4: seven sticks a Jelic Knight in my school bag. Oh
Speaker 4: my god, it could have leveled the whole scale. So
Speaker 4: my parents were called and my father, you know, they
Speaker 4: got them all back over the PA system and said
Speaker 4: with Ian Baker and rather, Lee's come to my office
Speaker 4: with your school bags. Immediately was it like one of.
Speaker 1: Those guys are not the hurt locker Jermy Renner is there.
Speaker 1: He's got the bomb suit on. The headmaster there's got
Speaker 1: this big bomb suit on. They send a robot into
Speaker 1: the glass.
Speaker 4: And so my father was called, and of course one
Speaker 4: of the sticks one of the kids had thrown and
Speaker 4: the old one too threw him into a creek and
Speaker 4: was soaking wet. So he's going down the driving back
Speaker 4: to the construction site like five kilometers an hour watching it.
Speaker 5: We've done.
Speaker 1: What a story.
Speaker 4: And the thing is that, of course it all was
Speaker 4: kept quiet because then the construction site we get into
Speaker 4: trouble because you're not allowed to keep jelly Knight in
Speaker 4: the ship and I got a month yard duty and
Speaker 4: the school want.
Speaker 1: To keep quite as well.
Speaker 3: You don't want to send him a letter to parents
Speaker 3: saying hey if your son and then.
Speaker 1: We judged it today, but we almost had the school flattened.
Speaker 1: These kids flown to Smitherings.
Speaker 4: Well, they say, you go to school to learn.
Speaker 1: So right there, you're so right, and young kids listen
Speaker 1: to this. This is how it used to be right.
Speaker 1: If you saw a building, sorry that you would on
Speaker 1: the way to school with your brother or your mates.
Speaker 1: You're going over the fence under it. There's not single
Speaker 1: but yeah, I I one hundred percent that's what we did.
Speaker 1: This is before mobile phones. Now kids don't even see
Speaker 1: that share think that's going to break in. See what
Speaker 1: they might have there. I love about you just tick
Speaker 1: this off on the way to school, probably not even late,
