Speaker 4: to have new clothes in the seventies as a kid.

19
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 4: It was always op shop clothes or hand me downs.

20
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 4: Because I've got like forty first cousins on my mom's side,

21
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 4: massive messive family. Mum's one of eight and they've all

22
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 4: had at last like three or four kids, the girls.

23
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 5: So and you're the youngest of four.

24
00:00:58,280 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 4: I'm the youngest of four.

00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 2: The trouble is going to be your husband cousins.

27
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 4: No, we're not like that. The trouble is I've got

28
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 4: all brothers, so ham and hand me downs meant that

29
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 4: I had to wear boys clothes so like brown cord jeans,

30
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:21,360

00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 2: Tough.

36
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,680

37
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 4: like when she was born, I love to shop for

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:53,960

Speaker 1: My hand me down was actually a horse at a

94
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: parent teacher interview. So what happened is Mom and I

95
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: were sitting at the parent teacher interview and Mom got

96
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: talking to the lady next to her, who was looking

97
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: through the form guide because Mom was also a punter,

98
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 1: And then she turned around and said how her daughter

99
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: loved horses, and the lady said her daughter also loved

100
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: horses and had two and Mom said, oh, my daughter

101
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: would kill for one. She goes to lessons every weekend.

102
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: And the lady turned around and said, oh, my daughter's

103
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: got two and has lost interest with your daughter like one.

104
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: So the parents, none of this is about your education

105
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 2: or future. Your mum leaves with a horse for you.

106
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: So yes, I ended up with my first horse at

107
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: sixteen from a parent teacher interview and he was he

108
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:55,760

Speaker 2: One of the Caddles.

117
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 3: We've just spoken to Cameron talking about how he thought

118
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 3: this precious kind of crystal bowl was worth a bit

119
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 3: of money. It turned out to be just a glass bowl,

120
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 3: you know, worth more than five bucks.

121
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 5: Every episode of Antiques Roto has a cam on there

122
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 5: taking in something they think is highly valuable, and it's.

123
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 3: Great when it's normally an elderly person who thinks they're

124
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 3: going to get some big cash payout worth millions, right,

125
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 3: they've probably hear marked a couple of properties that they're

126
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 3: going to be buying up new cast of this, and

127
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 3: then the value essentially goes afraid to say that actually

128
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 3: this is very cheap and worthless, and they go, I

129
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 3: want the camera to zoom in because actually, okay.

130
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 2: Well I actually thought yeah, yeah, yeah. It was savage family.

131
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: Really you could see their whole future they had planned

132
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 3: out just collapse in front their eyes.

00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 5: stuff they found this artwork and relatives were saying, hey,

136
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,279

137
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 5: name was, is a highly prized artist and that could

138
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 5: be worth the money. Anyway, they're talking to different experts

139
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 5: and there's a lot of chatter about they could become

140
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 5: overnight million.

141
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,200

149
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 5: how we were going to spend the money and how

150
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,679
Speaker 5: much individually would inspect to inherit from his grandpa. Of course,

151
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 5: when they finally got it valued, it wasn't a real

152
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 5: turner and they had no money. But I remember fore,

153
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 5: you know, a good two or three days they're thinking, I'm.
