17
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 2: Here's some entries that have come in yesterday after the

18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: show for the Wall of NaNs.

19
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 3: Hi Christian Aiden here, I just wanted to nominate my

20
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 3: nana for the Wall of NaNs. Her name was Margaret,

21
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 3: but everyone else just called it a mad meg or

22
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 3: mad mag egg. In the clown suit she used to

23
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 3: dress up as a clan and go to the Royal

24
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 3: Children's Hospital and put a smile on all the kids'

25
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 3: faces in their times and needs. She would also dress

26
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 3: up as a clan and go to random events for charity,

27
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 3: including the old Bunning Sausage Sam candy out all these

28
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 3: for free, just to put a smile on kids' faces.

29
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 3: I think she'd make a great addition to the Wall

30
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 3: of Nuns.

31
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: Agreed. I agree, mag mad mag ri Ip has to

32
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 2: go on the wall. What a superstar doing that? You

33
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 2: can matgine those poor kids and their mums and dads

34
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 2: and her families in the situation like that, and there's

35
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: a nana turning up off her own back. And also

36
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: what was she doing driving there as a clown? It

37
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: sounds like something you're getting on peat dressed as the clown,

38
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 2: go and do her day's work clowning around. I mean

39
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,679

Speaker 2: with a girl in nineteen ninety four and listening to

76
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,760

77
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: and over again until my flatmates staged a very finent

78
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 2: intervention and broke the vinyls and go that's enough now

79
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,160

80
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: not good for you, and it's not good for the house. Staying.
