Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell show. Let me tell you what happened yesterday.
Speaker 1: I knew this it was only ever going to end
Speaker 1: this way. A week and a half ago, got this
Speaker 1: new oven and Rob for me and s You think
Speaker 1: he could have turned up himself with this Bronco and
Speaker 1: drop it off. But these people turned up and it
Speaker 1: couldn't be installed straight away. We had to get like
Speaker 1: a fitter to come and sort the kickboard out and
Speaker 1: install and be there with the gas technician all of that.
Speaker 1: So it was dropped into the garage. And every day, right,
Speaker 1: I've seen that big solid unit right, this oven, I thought.
Speaker 1: I kept saying, so, how are they gonna how are
Speaker 1: they going to lift it? I saw all I was
Speaker 1: worried about every day it was in there, like even
Speaker 1: when I was sleeping at night, coming for you, I'm
Speaker 1: a problem. I was just getting so anxious. Then suddenly
Speaker 1: it was the day and the two guys who were coming,
Speaker 1: the carpenter and the gas technician. One of them was
Speaker 1: I'm ature gentleman, right, So I said, look, I'll help
Speaker 1: you lift it. And they were like, don't worry about it,
Speaker 1: you know, And I said no, no, no, no, And I
Speaker 1: sort of looked at one of them to say, oh,
Speaker 1: the old ancient mariner can't do it. Yeah, I was
Speaker 1: to see of Corte's my old friend, take a rest.
Speaker 1: I've got him from here. He had a lovely guy,
Speaker 1: but he had those old sort of old guy tattoos.
Speaker 1: You know, they're like a different color so much you
Speaker 1: can't tell what. And he had like dungarease, and he
Speaker 1: had a little bit of a limp and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: And I went to him, hey, listen, I'll help your
Speaker 1: mate here, okay, And he like, no, no, no, it's
Speaker 1: all right. We do this all time. I work out
Speaker 1: three times a week DJ by day, pro athlete, okay,
Speaker 1: pro athlete during the day. As soon as this beast,
Speaker 1: I know I haven't got it, but being a guy,
Speaker 1: I can't go. Oh, you're stuck in that situation't it right.
Speaker 1: The old man's looking at me, he knows you ain't
Speaker 1: got it, all right, And I'm okay, And no track
Speaker 1: now it's really slipperate, too larger. It was only because
Speaker 1: they want me. They want me. I'm rubberte y es white.
Speaker 1: Did you smear it on purpose of vascinine? I don't
Speaker 1: serve a prank. They obviously smear it in some kind
Speaker 1: of industrial lubricant. It's thicker than vascaline to glide it
Speaker 1: into the hole where the oven's gotta go. As soon
Speaker 1: as I get hold of it, I can't my hands.
Speaker 1: But they had like manhands, you know, a lot with
Speaker 1: calluses where they can just grip stuff. I can't. It's
Speaker 1: sliding as I'm moving. We've got soft button hands. Yes,
Speaker 1: they're Vader fingers, all right and straight. While this is
Speaker 1: this brain, the old ancient marinic goes, how was the
Speaker 1: sea of Corte's my weary traveler? He goes, I'll walk
Speaker 1: with you. I can't then go. You don't need to
Speaker 1: do that. I just got close, and the inevitable wappens
Speaker 1: going along, right, I realize, Jesus, I'm losing the grip
Speaker 1: of a brand new Do you do nothing when you
Speaker 1: know it's going You go? Well, I can. Speed's the
Speaker 1: only thing that'll save me. Now. So if I pick up.
Speaker 1: I'm at the back of end. There's a guy in
Speaker 1: front of me, and he got I just start to
Speaker 1: rush it forward, like at some moment I'm going to
Speaker 1: launch it like a shot put into the wall. He goes,
Speaker 1: so down right. I'm it's getting I'm getting lower and lower.
Speaker 1: Our ancient manner has to come in. I know, because
Speaker 1: he comes in with such force to save my oven.
Speaker 1: It goes flying into the utility door, taking a chip
Speaker 1: out of it. I'm not exaggerating it. I'm not the
Speaker 1: ovens like this. Right, we're tilted at an angle. I
Speaker 1: keep going. I didn't want to. It was a slippery guys.
