1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 2: And the kids are going back to school, our own

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 2: first days.

4
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 3: Oh a whole lot of them having their very first.

5
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 4: Day lunch and you what did you run away to

6
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 4: a treehouse?

7
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: So you got stuck at a treehouse. But you were

8
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 2: in Brisbane, so that could have been the classroom.

9
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 3: Well I remember something about there being a treehouse. I

10
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 3: think it might have been preschool. And as I said,

11
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 3: in Brisbane, you go to school so early, the minute

12
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 3: you're out of the womb, off you go.

13
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 2: I need that extra education, you see.

14
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 3: Really Brendon and I remember bursting into tears and Mum

15
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 3: having come and collect me. But we did our radio

16
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 3: show from my home on Liam's first day and on

17
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,919
Speaker 3: Jack's first day. I've put some pictures up on Instagram,

18
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 3: little things and in a blink of an eye, here's

19
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 3: Jack's final year of school.

20
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 2: I remember my I had two first days? How did

21
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: that happened?

22
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 4: So Dad got posted to London when I was a kid,

23
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 4: were young, I was about four, So I went to

24
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 4: school in Surrey and my first day was at this

25
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 4: school and it was like straight out of Pink Floyd's

26
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 4: The Wall, you know, to these giant school teachers that

27
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 4: wore these.

28
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 3: The gowns, not the educational gowns.

29
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 4: Done still, you know that's how they spoke, and they

30
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 4: just yell at you. So I did that for a

31
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 4: year and then came back to Australia. On the way

32
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 4: back to Australia, picked up some measles. Was three GT

33
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 4: three meassiles with me Scotch and had to go to

34
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 4: school with spots and a slight English accent.

35
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 3: That's flushable, isn't it.

36
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 4: Angle My name was Jones. People just started calling me

37
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 4: Fletcher Jones, A Fletcher Jones, English guy.

38
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: Hurtful, hurtful, flushed my own head. I had to flush

39
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 2: your own head the middle man.

40
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 3: Absolutely do it yourself.

41
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: I'll just go straight to the duney. But that was life.

42
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: You know. Who was joined us. Gloria has joined us

43
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: from Leppington. Hello Gloria, Hi here, you're going very good.

44
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 2: We were just talking about our first school days.

45
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 3: And you've got some memories of your daughters.

46
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: Yes, my youngest daughter started at school. She's fifty one

47
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: and she was actually fifty one last week and the

48
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: first day I took it to the school, we took

49
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: it out. She's with a baby at four and the

50
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: next thing, I got home and I get a phone

51
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: call from the school to say, cause she's run away.

52
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: She's left going oh my god, when running around Panda

53
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: at home. When I said be a talker, I said, okay,

54
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: well we'll let it go. Today, tomorrow you go. She

55
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: did that for the three days, She'd run away every day,

56
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: and in the end, the teachers at that school said

57
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: to me, look, she's uncontrollable, she's very noody, she's very

58
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: just that everything. And I thought that not my daughter.

59
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: So I took her across the road to the public

60
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: school and they said, oh, we know her. She's a runaway.

61
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god. She got ripped up, not even five

62
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: or just five, and she got a reputation anyway. They said, look,

63
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: we'll take her, we'll see how she goes, and we'll see.
