3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,840

4
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: with oz Post the promise he had last week with

5
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: his delivery the itch cream. How's it all worked out?

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: By the way cream on ititch gone? It is gone.

7
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: This is great news. What a day? Huh? What a

8
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 1: time to be alive? All right? Anyway back to Sharon Morgan, Christian.

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: Yesterday I had a phone call from a guy who

10
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: had received my meal. He lives at a Rugby Crescent.

11
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: I live at a Rupert Walk. Fortunately this was not on

12
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: his person who rang to let me know so I

13
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: could collect it from him. How hard is this? Streets

14
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: are next to each other. Put in Google Match it

15
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: gives you Direction's pretty easy. However, haven't said that. I

16
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: think Australia Post overall is doing an outstanding job. That's

17
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,319
Speaker 1: some Sharon, Yeah. I mean you hear about this quite

18
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: a lot, don't you. Wear People have like if they

19
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 1: live in flats, whether it's flat one A, two A,

20
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: three A and you're ordering a pizza and it must

21
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: be a nightmare where anytime you go to order anything

22
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: over the phone, you have to do that one or

23
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 1: two line explaining it. Oh and by the way, when

24
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: you turn up, don't press the buzzer for Flat one

25
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: eight that is our address.

26
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: It looks like one twenty three bits one twenty three A.

27
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 2: You got to go round the back up the stairs.

28
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. I always thought it must be awful if your

29
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: dress is a nightmare where you have to explain it

30
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: to someone on the phone. I don't leave it there,

31
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: or wear that buzzer or it says that, or you'll

32
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: post go somewhere else around the corner, a couple of

33
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: streets away, and you have to once a week go

34
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: and get their posts.

35
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 2: Well, often in a suburb, and I hate seeing this

36
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: when they've got like a barkley crescent in a barkly street,

37
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 2: you know, two streets from each other. That must get

38
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: confused all the time.

39
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 1: Yeah. I also live at a number eight, the house

40
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: that we have before we moved here. Lived there for

41
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: ten years and it was sort of just opposite. This

42
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: is ridiculous. I don't know what the town plans are doing,

43
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: but it was just opposite. I lived on Dorking Avenue

44
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: and there was a Dorking Road opposite my opposite road.

45
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Why would you do that anyway. One day I get

46
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: a text on the garage that have been servicing my

47
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: cargo and we've dropped your car off and I think

48
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: there's now car outside. So I ring them and go

49
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: you can't dropped it off and they went, no, no, it's

50
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: been dropped off. The young lad said he dropped off

51
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: but the keys, so letterbox went there are no keys

52
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: more bortanly no car And then for two hours they

53
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: can't work out the guys that he dropped off at

54
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: your house. And then on Twitter get this. I just

55
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: see a tweet from someone who follows me going we've

56
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: got your car. I twok them out going DM me,

57
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: I have actually lost my car. They say we live

58
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: at number eight Dorking Avenue. I was at Dorkin Crescent

59
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: number eight. They happened to be following me on social

60
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: media and listened to the show someone has just dropped

61
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: off a car and put the keys through the letterbox

62
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: and bug it off. They had my car. The occasional

63
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: would get my post but the car is a bit much.

64
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast, So Nightmare addresses you ever

67
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: nightmare addresses. Did you ever have a nightmare address? One

68
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: of those where you always have to explain it to

69
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: people and how to find your house or your flat

70
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: or your apartment. Tell us about your nightmare address.

71
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: It is a nightmare. I have an address. It's a

72
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 3: rural property in Paradise. Lovely place in Paradise, but my

73
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 3: mail does not get to me. My last letter that

74
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 3: I had sent to me took just over a month

75
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 3: and it was returned through Australia Post three times. It

76
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 3: also had three male stamps to say that it had

77
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 3: been returned. It had texta crossing out the barcodes and

78
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 3: saying send two address and it still took over a

79
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 3: month to get there.

80
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: See this is what I used to think when I

81
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: should watch TV shows as a kid about Australia, like

82
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: Flying Doctors. I just presume this was Australia.

83
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: Sorry, brother, Dad, I'm going to three. You probably won't

84
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 2: be able to contact me.

85
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: So why is the address in Paradise? I'm so hard

86
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: to find me.

87
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 3: Look, I don't know. It's got something to do with

88
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 3: the Australian post system, but Australia postponents basically don't have

89
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 3: Paradise on the list as a mailing area, so it

90
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 3: sort of bounces around between a couple of post offices.

91
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: That's what you're saying is meca is Australian post does

92
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: not recognized Paradise live.

93
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 2: How many people live in Paradise A few?

94
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 3: Like one hundred?

95
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's worthy enough, surely a post yeah yeah.

96
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we've got our postcode. But up there the

97
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 3: postcode sort of covers about five different areas, so as

98
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 3: long as it gets to the post office, you know,

99
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 3: they sort it out there. But it doesn't even get

100
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 3: to the post But.

101
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: This must mean like Christmas, Birthday cards and like bills

102
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: and stuff. That must be a nightmare for you.

103
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 3: By the time I get bills, they're overdue.

104
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: That's right.

105
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: When the debt collectors come, hopefully they can't find your

106
00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: front door exactly.

107
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: That's it.

108
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: That's the way I look at her, like if a

109
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 3: letter can't get to me, like you know, no one

110
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 3: else would be having to come.

111
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: Well, Christian know Connells Show podcast
