<v Speaker 2>Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:00:04.880 --> 0:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Got an email from Sharon Morgan about Jack Post's problem

0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:11.760
<v Speaker 1>with oz Post the promise he had last week with

0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:15.240
<v Speaker 1>his delivery the itch cream. How's it all worked out?

0:00:15.240 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>By the way cream on ititch gone? It is gone.

0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:20.680
<v Speaker 1>This is great news. What a day? Huh? What a

0:00:20.720 --> 0:00:24.280
<v Speaker 1>time to be alive? All right? Anyway back to Sharon Morgan, Christian.

0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Yesterday I had a phone call from a guy who

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>had received my meal. He lives at a Rugby Crescent.

0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:32.280
<v Speaker 1>I live at a Rupert Walk. Fortunately this was not on

0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:33.839
<v Speaker 1>his person who rang to let me know so I

0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:37.000
<v Speaker 1>could collect it from him. How hard is this? Streets

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:38.640
<v Speaker 1>are next to each other. Put in Google Match it

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:41.000
<v Speaker 1>gives you Direction's pretty easy. However, haven't said that. I

0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:43.920
<v Speaker 1>think Australia Post overall is doing an outstanding job. That's

0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:46.319
<v Speaker 1>some Sharon, Yeah. I mean you hear about this quite

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:48.720
<v Speaker 1>a lot, don't you. Wear People have like if they

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:50.879
<v Speaker 1>live in flats, whether it's flat one A, two A,

0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:53.480
<v Speaker 1>three A and you're ordering a pizza and it must

0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:56.760
<v Speaker 1>be a nightmare where anytime you go to order anything

0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.680
<v Speaker 1>over the phone, you have to do that one or

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:02.279
<v Speaker 1>two line explaining it. Oh and by the way, when

0:01:02.320 --> 0:01:04.920
<v Speaker 1>you turn up, don't press the buzzer for Flat one

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:06.120
<v Speaker 1>eight that is our address.

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 2>It looks like one twenty three bits one twenty three A.

0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:10.319
<v Speaker 2>You got to go round the back up the stairs.

0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I always thought it must be awful if your

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 1>dress is a nightmare where you have to explain it

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:17.080
<v Speaker 1>to someone on the phone. I don't leave it there,

0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:20.120
<v Speaker 1>or wear that buzzer or it says that, or you'll

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:22.360
<v Speaker 1>post go somewhere else around the corner, a couple of

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:24.319
<v Speaker 1>streets away, and you have to once a week go

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 1>and get their posts.

0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:27.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, often in a suburb, and I hate seeing this

0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:30.720
<v Speaker 2>when they've got like a barkley crescent in a barkly street,

0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:33.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, two streets from each other. That must get

0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 2>confused all the time.

0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I also live at a number eight, the house

0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:39.000
<v Speaker 1>that we have before we moved here. Lived there for

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:42.880
<v Speaker 1>ten years and it was sort of just opposite. This

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:44.679
<v Speaker 1>is ridiculous. I don't know what the town plans are doing,

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:46.840
<v Speaker 1>but it was just opposite. I lived on Dorking Avenue

0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and there was a Dorking Road opposite my opposite road.

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Why would you do that anyway. One day I get

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:55.480
<v Speaker 1>a text on the garage that have been servicing my

0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 1>cargo and we've dropped your car off and I think

0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 1>there's now car outside. So I ring them and go

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 1>you can't dropped it off and they went, no, no, it's

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:03.360
<v Speaker 1>been dropped off. The young lad said he dropped off

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.240
<v Speaker 1>but the keys, so letterbox went there are no keys

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 1>more bortanly no car And then for two hours they

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 1>can't work out the guys that he dropped off at

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>your house. And then on Twitter get this. I just

0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 1>see a tweet from someone who follows me going we've

0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 1>got your car. I twok them out going DM me,

0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I have actually lost my car. They say we live

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:25.800
<v Speaker 1>at number eight Dorking Avenue. I was at Dorkin Crescent

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.000
<v Speaker 1>number eight. They happened to be following me on social

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:31.320
<v Speaker 1>media and listened to the show someone has just dropped

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>off a car and put the keys through the letterbox

0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 1>and bug it off. They had my car. The occasional

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 1>would get my post but the car is a bit much.

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell show podcast, So Nightmare addresses you ever

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>lived at one? You can email me your stories. Christian

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:51.480
<v Speaker 1>at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au. We're talking about

0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 1>nightmare addresses. Did you ever have a nightmare address? One

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>of those where you always have to explain it to

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 1>people and how to find your house or your flat

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 1>or your apartment. Tell us about your nightmare address.

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 3>It is a nightmare. I have an address. It's a

0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 3>rural property in Paradise. Lovely place in Paradise, but my

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 3>mail does not get to me. My last letter that

0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.919
<v Speaker 3>I had sent to me took just over a month

0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 3>and it was returned through Australia Post three times. It

0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:29.320
<v Speaker 3>also had three male stamps to say that it had

0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 3>been returned. It had texta crossing out the barcodes and

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:39.840
<v Speaker 3>saying send two address and it still took over a

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 3>month to get there.

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:42.680
<v Speaker 1>See this is what I used to think when I

0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.080
<v Speaker 1>should watch TV shows as a kid about Australia, like

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Flying Doctors. I just presume this was Australia.

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, brother, Dad, I'm going to three. You probably won't

0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 2>be able to contact me.

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:57.240
<v Speaker 1>So why is the address in Paradise? I'm so hard

0:03:57.280 --> 0:03:57.720
<v Speaker 1>to find me.

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 3>Look, I don't know. It's got something to do with

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:05.440
<v Speaker 3>the Australian post system, but Australia postponents basically don't have

0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 3>Paradise on the list as a mailing area, so it

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 3>sort of bounces around between a couple of post offices.

0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:16.360
<v Speaker 1>That's what you're saying is meca is Australian post does

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:18.039
<v Speaker 1>not recognized Paradise live.

0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 2>How many people live in Paradise A few?

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:25.160
<v Speaker 3>Like one hundred?

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean that's worthy enough, surely a post yeah yeah.

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:32.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, we've got our postcode. But up there the

0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 3>postcode sort of covers about five different areas, so as

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 3>long as it gets to the post office, you know,

0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:43.160
<v Speaker 3>they sort it out there. But it doesn't even get

0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 3>to the post But.

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:47.960
<v Speaker 1>This must mean like Christmas, Birthday cards and like bills

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.080
<v Speaker 1>and stuff. That must be a nightmare for you.

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.039
<v Speaker 3>By the time I get bills, they're overdue.

0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>That's right.

0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:58.640
<v Speaker 2>When the debt collectors come, hopefully they can't find your

0:04:58.640 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 2>front door exactly.

0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>That's it.

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 3>That's the way I look at her, like if a

0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 3>letter can't get to me, like you know, no one

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:07.719
<v Speaker 3>else would be having to come.

0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, Christian know Connells Show podcast
