0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:04.640
<v Speaker 1>point three.

0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:06.920
<v Speaker 2>If you can hear these words, it means that the

0:00:07.040 --> 0:00:10.880
<v Speaker 2>phone system is down. We've tried everything to stay alive

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 2>in this studio. We're running low on oxygen. Can you

0:00:13.480 --> 0:00:15.560
<v Speaker 2>hear my words? This is the end of the world,

0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:18.560
<v Speaker 2>The end of the world. Friends, The phones are down.

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:21.760
<v Speaker 2>Patsy's done her normal bit of the Queen of positivity

0:00:21.760 --> 0:00:25.000
<v Speaker 2>on the show. Simply came wondering and went, heads, will

0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 2>have to roll the news the news phone. The news

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:35.000
<v Speaker 2>phone was down yesterday, which meant I couldn't call out

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:37.519
<v Speaker 2>and get free red carpet to ket to me and

0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:43.560
<v Speaker 2>my family the bat phones dead heads, well have to wrong?

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 2>Why were you fired from that job at Gold? One day?

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:48.879
<v Speaker 2>The pommy guy couldn't take a phone call, so I

0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 2>had to go.

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 3>The news reader said I had to go.

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 2>She called it head after roll, friends, not just that.

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:58.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if phrases winding me up. You know,

0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 2>I can't stand to lose a great call story, so

0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 2>phrases texted in here. The only way we can communicate

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:07.240
<v Speaker 2>this morning is through smoke signals with you and text

0:01:07.240 --> 0:01:10.920
<v Speaker 2>messages collect our producer. They can also leave messages on Facebook.

0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:14.640
<v Speaker 2>That's what you kind of RSL community radio stations do.

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Come on, we can't be reduced to that. But Phrases

0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:20.880
<v Speaker 2>has texted in here going I have a seriously funny

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:25.120
<v Speaker 2>story to tell you, guys. Phraser, you're making it worse late.

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.559
<v Speaker 2>Just during that five second jingle, passes five three people

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 2>they've gone. We don't even know what they do. We

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:41.240
<v Speaker 2>might need to rehire them. Pass by lunchtime. But they're

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 2>being marched out the building right now. How do we

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:47.160
<v Speaker 2>cope with no phones? We go old school to snail mail.

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:50.200
<v Speaker 2>It's not it's actually email, electronic mail, your late la

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:52.640
<v Speaker 2>party emails. Do you know? Was it? Last week on

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.800
<v Speaker 2>the show we were talking about grandparents claim to fame? Ye?

0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Do you guys know what a game is called Truego?

0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:02.800
<v Speaker 4>It's like a croquet, is it?

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay?

0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 5>No?

0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 4>I think it's a proper outside like a mallet. You

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:07.440
<v Speaker 4>gotta mallet, I think right?

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay? Good morning, Christian. My Nana's kind of fat. She

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.679
<v Speaker 2>was a True Go superstar. She was a champion in

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 2>South Melbourne True Go Club. She was on television in

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>a show that was either called who said Australian TV

0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:22.760
<v Speaker 2>isn't very good. Waight up, what's it called? Name that

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 2>sport or what is that sport? Either name that sport?

0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:32.720
<v Speaker 2>How do you get half an hour? An hour? And

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.720
<v Speaker 2>name that sport? Or what's it called? What is that sport?

0:02:36.080 --> 0:02:39.560
<v Speaker 2>She was very serious about the game. Lots of people

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 2>men wouldn't even want to play her. The high score

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:45.639
<v Speaker 2>you could get was twenty. She would routinely get nineteen

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.079
<v Speaker 2>or twenty. I love to listen to you guys in

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:52.079
<v Speaker 2>the morning, full stop, amusing, full stop. Thank you, Linda.

0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:54.520
<v Speaker 4>From what I can tell Google images, trugo is like

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:57.799
<v Speaker 4>a reverse croquet, so you hit it backward through your legs.

0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, this is from Luke Christian last week on

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 2>the show. But you're talk about your friend who's bringing

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:06.960
<v Speaker 2>his dad's ashes or some of them back from London

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.960
<v Speaker 2>here to Melbourne. Yes, they arrived yesterday. I saw a

0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:13.079
<v Speaker 2>picture of his dad's passport photo. I said last week

0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:15.400
<v Speaker 2>how the airliners said, abstutely fine and bringing on some

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 2>of your dad's ashes. You just need to bring his passport,

0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 2>even though his dad is no longer physical form.

0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 3>And he's only bringing a bit of his dad.

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.040
<v Speaker 2>His dad out, but I'll tell you what he's s

0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.720
<v Speaker 2>a spitting image of his ashes saw and he showed

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 2>me the photos yesterday. Christian. We used to have a

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 2>cocker Spaniel called Molly. She was joined at the HIT

0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 2>with my wife and when we moved to Australia, we

0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 2>to try and work out a way to sneak her

0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 2>ashes in and she passed away just we moved out here,

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:43.200
<v Speaker 2>but we didn't want the bloody authorities taken away. I

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 2>don't think the best way to speak about border patrol.

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 2>It's bloody authorities. I love that Border Patrol show Australian border,

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.120
<v Speaker 2>but it is great, you know what. You actually just

0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 2>can't work out how people thought this will be no

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 2>briggie to bring a dead light and Antlerson or something

0:03:56.680 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 2>into the country. So we don't this isn't. I don't

0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 2>know if we can read this out. So we sowed

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 2>the ashes into one of my kid's teddy bears and

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>got the kids to take the teddy on the plan.

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:11.680
<v Speaker 2>I can't use your kid as an ashes mule, sir,

0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:14.440
<v Speaker 2>on the trayer on the plane with us when we

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:17.039
<v Speaker 2>moved over. Job done. She still has the Teddy bear

0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:19.600
<v Speaker 2>on the dress in the bedroom five years later. Not

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:21.359
<v Speaker 2>sure if it's weird, but it's up there that the

0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.960
<v Speaker 2>dead dog is still inside in the ashes. That's from

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:28.359
<v Speaker 2>Luke Christian. Are you're talking about pranks you played on

0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:31.000
<v Speaker 2>your dad? Yeah? I still need to get Lois back.

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:32.919
<v Speaker 2>She said to me the day, Hey, what happened to

0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.000
<v Speaker 2>this revenge prank? I told you it's just gonna be

0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 2>sad for you. It's gonna be so obvious what you're doing.

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 2>I need some sort of pranks a planner to get

0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:42.040
<v Speaker 2>her back. Otherwise it's like I've got no game anymore.

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:44.160
<v Speaker 4>Revenge is best so cold, though, So I think it's

0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.719
<v Speaker 4>good that you put some distance between her prank on you.

0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:47.839
<v Speaker 2>So wait five years.

0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 4>I still do it by the end of the week

0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 4>so we can hear about it on the show.

0:04:51.560 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 2>Not that long, Kristin pranks you played. We used to

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:56.480
<v Speaker 2>have this table in our living room. It's only small,

0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:58.839
<v Speaker 2>about four foot in length, and it had screw on

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 2>legs in Everyone mom and dad have a table with

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:04.000
<v Speaker 2>screw on legs. Daddy used it all the time for

0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 2>his tea and biscuits. So one day I loosened one

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 2>the legs while he was in the kitchen taking up

0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 2>a nice plate of biscuits, making a cup of tea

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:13.800
<v Speaker 2>after day at work. I heard him coming and I

0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:16.240
<v Speaker 2>raced up to my room. That's where pranks are best

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 2>to join from, aren't they up in your bedroom? Waiting

0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:22.239
<v Speaker 2>for the swearing and chaos to begin. I couldn't stop

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.720
<v Speaker 2>giggling at this impending doom that was about to befall him.

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Great word there, Anthony. All I heard was a clutter

0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:33.479
<v Speaker 2>of cutlery and a series of really loud f bombs,

0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:37.600
<v Speaker 2>and then another expleted as they came down to see

0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>not only tea splashed over the floor, but sadly all

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.720
<v Speaker 2>the tea had gone onto his poor groin area as well.

0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 2>He was actually holding his groin in crying in pain.

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.520
<v Speaker 2>But it was still a great prank that comes from

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Anthony Christian. I get that the tin fall on the

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 2>top is annoying for Jack. These are ideas to stop

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 2>Jack's dog from getting up on the kitchen top. But

0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 2>doesn't she jump on the bench first then go up

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:01.799
<v Speaker 2>to the worktop.

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's a built in bench seat, so it's actually

0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.159
<v Speaker 4>as long as the bench top. So I guess we

0:06:07.200 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 4>could stuck up chairs or something on there.

0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.599
<v Speaker 2>But it would you put the tin four on the bench.

0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:14.600
<v Speaker 2>But still like many years on there, She's not gonna

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:16.920
<v Speaker 2>like that. But then you roll it away when you

0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:17.479
<v Speaker 2>come home.

0:06:17.720 --> 0:06:20.320
<v Speaker 4>So every morning, I mean I get up, We get

0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:22.720
<v Speaker 4>up a quarter to five every morning. Put some aluminium

0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:26.960
<v Speaker 4>foil out. Yeah, roll it out too hard, try.

0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:29.279
<v Speaker 2>Christian Harry goes on to say he's got very well

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 2>behave spaniels. That is a great shut up line for

0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:34.280
<v Speaker 2>any single guys out. They just go up to a

0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:39.000
<v Speaker 2>lar and go I've got very well behaved Spaniels. Thank

<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he had lots of moving part. His neck would extend,

0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:47.200
<v Speaker 4>his hat would open, but his hand would shoot off

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 4>like a rocket, and we lost his hand in the bush.

0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:50.440
<v Speaker 3>Never found it again.

0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 2>It's a very Australian kind of injury. He lost his

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:57.720

<v Speaker 2>What's that toy that you asked for but then you

0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.120
<v Speaker 2>didn't get. They gave you something else. They ignored what

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.880

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 2>this day. Who's that guy unwanted or uninvited Christmas guests?

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 2>And what's the oldest Christmas present you still own?

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:22.680
<v Speaker 6>Now?

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Despite the the phone's been down, we have had some

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 2>people been emailed in the show for five to its

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Tuesday Christian. A couple years ago, I got my husband

0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 2>he wanted a remote control buggy for Christmas, so I

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.560
<v Speaker 2>went and brought it. It's a very expensive thing. I

0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:36.360
<v Speaker 2>took it to my parents' house to hire it to

0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 2>Christmas Day and I was showing my dad and my

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:41.280
<v Speaker 2>dad said, let's get it out and have a play

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 2>with it now. So we pulled it out. This thing

0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.880
<v Speaker 2>was really powerful and quick. We were playing with it

0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 2>for about ten minutes and then I had to go

0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 2>and accidentally flipped it over and smashed the bumper. This

0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:53.679
<v Speaker 2>is amazing. So you haven't even given it to your

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.040
<v Speaker 2>husband and you've broken it. My dad tried to fix

0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:58.679
<v Speaker 2>it with glue. We then repackaged it all up. I

0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:00.680
<v Speaker 2>re wrapped it and on Christmas I handed it to

0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:02.720
<v Speaker 2>my husband. He went out to play with it, and

0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 2>again the bumper fell off within a couple of minutes

0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 2>and we said nothing, thank you very much, Karen Christian.

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.360
<v Speaker 2>This is a story about a broken Christmas present. It

0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:15.319
<v Speaker 2>was all my fault. I broke my daughter's Christmas present.

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.000
<v Speaker 2>After about ten minutes she opened it. It was one of

0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:20.679
<v Speaker 2>those Barbie fairies with wings. Just imagine that, right, you're

0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.360
<v Speaker 2>a little girl. And he prayed of getting your Barbie

0:09:23.360 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 2>with wings letters let us, let us still, Christian. It

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:31.000
<v Speaker 2>was a Barbie fairy with wings. You would insert a

0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:33.600
<v Speaker 2>plastic pull string and pull it to make Barbie fly.

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.199
<v Speaker 2>My daughter tried it a few times, couldn't get enough

0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:39.560
<v Speaker 2>gumption going. I then said, hand it here, you're not

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.400
<v Speaker 2>doing it properly. I tried to show it how it

0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 2>should be done. Christian'm afraid to say I pulled it

0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:47.720
<v Speaker 2>too hard. Barbie hit the roof, bounce off the TV

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 2>stand and broke her wings. Barbie couldn't fly anymore. My

0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 2>daughter was in tears all Christmas day. Dear, oh, dear Simon.

0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.480
<v Speaker 2>All right, give us a call nine four one O

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:01.200
<v Speaker 2>four to three lines and now open for the Ald

0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Christmas Special off time five top of Tuesday. We'll take

0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:04.199
<v Speaker 2>your stories next.

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell breakfast Show Melbourne's Gold one oh four

0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:08.480
<v Speaker 1>point three.

0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:11.680
<v Speaker 2>So it's a five Top of Tuesday Christmas special this morning,

0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.160
<v Speaker 2>all stories to do with Christmas, and the five phones

0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:17.320
<v Speaker 2>are what is the oldest present you still own? Who's

0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 2>that guy? Unwanted or uninvited Christmas guests? The toy that

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.000
<v Speaker 2>got away? You know, the one toy that you wanted,

0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:25.000
<v Speaker 2>you asked for, maybe you wrote to Santa for and

0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>then what turned up was not what you requested normally

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 2>for me, a cheaper or crapper version, unique Christmas traditions

0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:33.080
<v Speaker 2>that only your family do, and you only had it

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:35.480
<v Speaker 2>for a few minutes, Like Paul Simon's daughter and the

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:40.320
<v Speaker 2>broken Barbie that couldn't fly anymore Christian. I still got

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Fozzy Bear my first Christmas gift when I was nine

0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:48.160
<v Speaker 2>nine months forty two years ago. That's incredible. And someone

0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.520
<v Speaker 2>else has still got their Rupert the Bear annuals from

0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:53.839
<v Speaker 2>nineteen sixty eight and nineteen sixty nine. They'd be worth

0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 2>quite a bit of money. And I don't know about you, Pats,

0:10:56.080 --> 0:10:58.160
<v Speaker 2>but I found Rupert the Bear one of the most

0:10:58.200 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 2>disturbing and terrifying things from my childhood.

0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:02.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if we had him out here, did we?

0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you must have done, sort of a strange kind

0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 2>of albino bear in sort of checked pants. And he

0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:10.920
<v Speaker 2>had a mate with him who was a gnarly sort

0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:14.200
<v Speaker 2>of twig called Rackety or something used to give everyone nightmares.

0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 4>I remember Ruperah, Actually he did come here.

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Did he look at him?

0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:18.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Stuff, No he's not you are you looking at that

0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:23.760
<v Speaker 2>photo with his twig mate.

0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:25.800
<v Speaker 3>No, he's just a cartoon character.

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:29.240
<v Speaker 4>A white bear with yellow stuff.

0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:31.319
<v Speaker 2>Albino bear and the red roll neck and the yellow

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:33.920
<v Speaker 2>check pants. And then I had a terrifying TV theme

0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:39.400
<v Speaker 2>tune as well, Ruper Rupert the Bear. He knows your name.

0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:41.560
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's go to Helen.

0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:44.679
<v Speaker 7>Good morning morning guys, love the show.

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh bless you head, and thank you very much thanksgiving

0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:48.720
<v Speaker 2>us to cool this morning. Which Christmas story are you

0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:49.920
<v Speaker 2>calling about this morning? House?

0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:52.960
<v Speaker 8>About the unique Christmas tradition?

0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:54.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh great, what's it for you guys?

0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.360
<v Speaker 8>So my family, we've always lived on the main road,

0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:01.640
<v Speaker 8>no matter which house we've lived here. So every year

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.800
<v Speaker 8>we have a tradition where everyone dresses like somebody has

0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 8>to dress up as Santa for the year. And that's

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:08.720
<v Speaker 8>not where it stops.

0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 9>So the point is, though, that you have to go out.

0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:12.320
<v Speaker 8>On the main road. You're going to try and make

0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:14.199
<v Speaker 8>as big as a fool of yourself as you can.

0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:16.720
<v Speaker 8>You're got to dance around and see how many cars

0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.120
<v Speaker 8>you can get to toot you while you dance along

0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:21.920
<v Speaker 8>the main street dressed at the Santa. And then it's

0:12:21.920 --> 0:12:24.800
<v Speaker 8>always bonus points if you can get the tram driver

0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:28.000
<v Speaker 8>or someone to kind of toot you or wave at you,

0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.560
<v Speaker 8>So bonus points for trams. If you can get more trams,

0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:32.000
<v Speaker 8>the better.

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, I tell you what, it is a nice tradition,

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.360
<v Speaker 2>isn't it. It's a lot of effoot as well, but

0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:37.560
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a great idea.

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:40.960
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, well it brings a lot of cheer to the neighborhood.

0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:44.480
<v Speaker 8>You'd see the little kids in the car's way started.

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.000
<v Speaker 3>And how do you choose who goes in the suit?

0:12:48.559 --> 0:12:51.400
<v Speaker 8>Well, last year it was my brother, so maybe it

0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:53.319
<v Speaker 8>might be this year my turn. So we'll have to

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:54.760
<v Speaker 8>see how that plays out.

0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:57.640
<v Speaker 2>So if it was me, I'd be tempted to maybe

0:12:57.960 --> 0:12:59.800
<v Speaker 2>show a different side to Santo and just drop my

0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:02.440
<v Speaker 2>car stop mooning at people. Go oh god, kids don't

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.280
<v Speaker 2>see Santa like that. Why Santa vomiting into a bin?

0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 2>All right? Helen, Thank you very much and cool.

0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:09.840
<v Speaker 10>All right, thank you.

0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Alana, Hi, hi Nana. Welcome to the show. What's your

0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 2>story for us? This morning?

0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:16.840
<v Speaker 11>We had an.

0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:21.880
<v Speaker 9>Unwanted guest Christmas. Unfortunately no one else would take you uncle,

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:27.400
<v Speaker 9>and we've well we've unfotunately got it. And we were

0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:29.800
<v Speaker 9>sitting down at the Christmas table. So we've been talking

0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:32.360
<v Speaker 9>and eating for a while. And during the dinner he

0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:34.320
<v Speaker 9>sent to my sister and said who are you? And

0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 9>she was twenty two. He'd don't know for years.

0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:39.880
<v Speaker 2>Or you can do a whole phone in one day

0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:41.720
<v Speaker 2>about uncles. I don't think a lot of those stories

0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.000
<v Speaker 2>are broadcast or what. There's something about uncles, isn't There

0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 2>often strange characters uncles slash inappropriate as well. There and

0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:51.280
<v Speaker 2>a lot of families have got a strange uncle in

0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:53.920
<v Speaker 2>the mix. Alana, that's a great one. Thank you very

0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:56.240
<v Speaker 2>much for giving us a call. All right, thank you,

0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:56.719
<v Speaker 2>thanks all.

0:13:56.880 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 11>Mary, Hello, Kristin, how are you?

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm good, Mary, welcome to the show and I watch

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:05.679
<v Speaker 2>your story first morning.

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:11.080
<v Speaker 11>Well, our story is that from the late eighteen hundreds,

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:16.080
<v Speaker 11>we make my late grandmother's Christmas pudding and we include

0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:19.600
<v Speaker 11>the old shillings and pens from pre decimal pre nineteen

0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:22.920
<v Speaker 11>sixty six from Australia. Yes, and you can only use

0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 11>those otherwise they're poisonous. So each year I have to

0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:29.280
<v Speaker 11>boil them and each and put them in the pudding.

0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:31.640
<v Speaker 11>My pudding's hanging. Now you have to hang it for

0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:34.680
<v Speaker 11>six to eight weeks on the hook and then you

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:38.480
<v Speaker 11>warm it up on Christmas Day. Now you cut through

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:42.320
<v Speaker 11>and you get the coin, but I have to buy

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:45.520
<v Speaker 11>it back from everybody otherwise I don't have the coins

0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:48.040
<v Speaker 11>to keep the tradition going. So it's really fun and

0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:49.600
<v Speaker 11>it's such a yummy recipe.

0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:53.160
<v Speaker 2>And this has been going on since the eighteen hundreds.

0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:56.120
<v Speaker 11>Yes, the late eighteen hundreds. My late grandmother had got

0:14:56.120 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 11>it from you beforehand, and luckily that's mum had it

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:04.200
<v Speaker 11>written down and I made it a few times with

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:08.400
<v Speaker 11>my late mum and I in longhand wrote down all

0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:12.880
<v Speaker 11>the steps to ensure that I could keep the recipe

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:15.120
<v Speaker 11>into its original form.

0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.360
<v Speaker 2>What a wonderful tradition to keep alive and do all

0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 2>these generations of your family. Tell me what does it

0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 2>taste like? Because obviously a lot of those older recipes

0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:25.680
<v Speaker 2>they were using food stuff that they had around a

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:28.320
<v Speaker 2>different scarcity. Does it taste nice?

0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:33.600
<v Speaker 11>It tastes so nice. It's so rich with the beautiful

0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:36.840
<v Speaker 11>Australian sultanas and currants.

0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:36.920
<v Speaker 6>And that in it.

0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.400
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, it's and of course you put a lot of

0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:39.960
<v Speaker 11>brandy in it.

0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:41.520
<v Speaker 2>That's it, and you step far to it.

0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:46.440
<v Speaker 11>No, no, not yet already when I cook you. If

0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:48.080
<v Speaker 11>I'm not careful, the alarm goes off.

0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:49.800
<v Speaker 7>So though if I did that, we.

0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Would all right, Mary, that's lovely, thank you very much

0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 2>to give us a call. Thank you all right? So

0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:57.800
<v Speaker 2>the five tours today, if your Christmas stories are, what's

0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 2>the oldest present used to own? Who's that guy I wanted?

0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.560
<v Speaker 2>An uninvited Christmas guest? The toy that got away? Unique

0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Christmas editions that your family have and you only had

0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:09.720
<v Speaker 2>it for a few minutes. The Christmas toy that broke

0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:10.560
<v Speaker 2>on Christmas Day?

<v Speaker 2>before the news they squeezing a few of you. Lisa,

0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, good morning, Hello Lisa, welcome to the show.

0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:53.320
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for calling in. Which one are you calling in about? Mate?

0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:54.920
<v Speaker 6>The present that got away?

0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 2>Brilliant? What did you ask for? What did you want?

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:00.760
<v Speaker 6>My brother and sister and I asked for it. Tampoline?

0:17:01.480 --> 0:17:04.560
<v Speaker 6>What did you And we got a trampoline and we

0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:07.080
<v Speaker 6>got to the back door and my dad was jumping

0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:09.200
<v Speaker 6>on it and then did a bum drop and went

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:09.840
<v Speaker 6>straight through it.

0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:17.960
<v Speaker 2>I could visualize it. Then the old man, he's had

0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:22.159
<v Speaker 2>a couple of eggnogs, big belly of Christmas turkey and stuffing,

0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.680
<v Speaker 2>and then the trampoline is no match for Dad. The

0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.199
<v Speaker 2>trampoline quit on the spot and Dad went through a

0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 2>bum drop. As well. So I think he's on the

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Olympic moves and now they're synchronized. Bum drop, Lisa. That's

0:17:37.280 --> 0:17:39.600
<v Speaker 2>a great story. Thank you very much for giving us

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:41.119
<v Speaker 2>a call. And you're more the welcome to come and

0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:42.720
<v Speaker 2>join us tonight for ELF if you're around.

0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:44.359
<v Speaker 9>Fantastic, Thank you.

<v Speaker 2>Great, we see you down there.

0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:46.399
<v Speaker 10>Thank you.

0:17:47.240 --> 0:17:48.879
<v Speaker 2>Let's got a Sue good morning, Sue.

0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:50.399
<v Speaker 10>Hello, Hi guys.

0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:51.200
<v Speaker 12>Hell are you Yeah?

0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:53.119
<v Speaker 2>We're good Sue. That's the cooler show off you go.

0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:57.159
<v Speaker 13>I've got the one that didn't last too long. A

0:17:57.160 --> 0:17:59.159
<v Speaker 13>two years ago, we were doing the right thing and

0:17:59.200 --> 0:18:03.720
<v Speaker 13>bought ol boys those twelve vaults car things that you

0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:05.200
<v Speaker 13>can herber in in the backyard.

0:18:05.280 --> 0:18:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I've seen those. They look greatful.

0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 4>It's easy one that they actually get in.

0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:12.040
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, yeah, like little Lamborghinis and all that sort of stuff.

0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:12.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:15.200
<v Speaker 13>And so we did the right thing night before, change

0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.200
<v Speaker 13>the batteries up and everything. The kids were herbing around

0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:22.480
<v Speaker 13>the backyard and both of them burst into flames. But both.

0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:28.040
<v Speaker 2>This story went quite real soon and then the kids are.

0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:30.639
<v Speaker 13>All right, We're fine. The kids were fine. Kids were fine.

0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:34.320
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yet recall.

0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:37.879
<v Speaker 13>And it wasn't much to recall me.

0:18:38.080 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean I guess they're getting the full driving experience

0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:43.040
<v Speaker 2>with Lamborghinis. I mean they can be dangerous cars, but

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:46.160
<v Speaker 2>that what excitement on Christmas Day? Yeah?

0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:46.880
<v Speaker 10>Pretty much.

0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:49.400
<v Speaker 2>And with the boys, okay, did they find it fine?

0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:54.920
<v Speaker 13>They were quite young. I think they are about five

0:18:55.000 --> 0:18:57.360
<v Speaker 13>and three maybe at the time age.

0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:57.720
<v Speaker 2>To be trapped.

0:18:57.720 --> 0:19:03.280
<v Speaker 3>In five, they're too young to remember.

0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:05.679
<v Speaker 2>The trauma come back.

0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:09.680
<v Speaker 3>Itself in different ways.

0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:12.399
<v Speaker 13>I'm thinking that's why Weatherson drives like a maniac.

0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Now, all right, so that's a great one, Sue. Do

0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 2>you want to come and watch Elf with us tonight?

0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:21.880
<v Speaker 13>Unfortunately I can't. I'm sorry, so please pay it forward?

0:19:22.400 --> 0:19:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Will I pay for it?

0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 13>Have an amazing Christmas guys, and.

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, thank you very very much, very sweet. Dennis.

0:19:31.800 --> 0:19:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, good morning, good morning, big d Okay, wish

0:19:36.720 --> 0:19:38.119
<v Speaker 2>when are calling it about Dennis?

0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:41.000
<v Speaker 7>I'm telling him about the gift that I never got.

0:19:41.200 --> 0:19:42.679
<v Speaker 2>What didn't you get? What did you? First of all,

0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:43.800
<v Speaker 2>what did you want? Dennis?

0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:47.639
<v Speaker 7>Well, I was raised in a really strict religious household,

0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:50.480
<v Speaker 7>and I was asking for years and years and years

0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 7>to get a toy gune, but my parents would never

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:56.000
<v Speaker 7>agree to it. And then one day they said, oh yeah,

0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:59.080
<v Speaker 7>we'll get it for you this Christmas really psyched up

0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.760
<v Speaker 7>waiting for Christmas and then my person came out and

0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:06.159
<v Speaker 7>it was really thin, unrepped with bloody thinking comics.

0:20:07.800 --> 0:20:09.840
<v Speaker 2>I used to love tinting comics, but it is no

0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.640
<v Speaker 2>toy gun for a kid. And like I said, Thinness,

0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:15.400
<v Speaker 2>lets you know that disappointment is contained with.

0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:17.919
<v Speaker 7>Yourself.

0:20:18.200 --> 0:20:20.879
<v Speaker 2>For seventy special spike gun that they would try and

0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:22.480
<v Speaker 2>get on a plane or undetected.

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:27.640
<v Speaker 7>I can still feel the disappointment, Christians.

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:31.520
<v Speaker 2>It stays with you, doesn't It leaves a mark on your.

0:20:31.520 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 7>Soul, never goes away. So enough having to make my

0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 7>own toy guns, and I think they're better than the

0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:37.760
<v Speaker 7>ones I could possibly buy.

0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:40.280
<v Speaker 2>But that's even more terrifying. A boy that you see

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:43.879
<v Speaker 2>playing who's got a homemade gun. Watch that kid, he's

0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:46.160
<v Speaker 2>on a watch list. All right, Dennis, you've actually coming

0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:47.840
<v Speaker 2>tonight and have a drink with us and watching ELF.

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:49.640
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it sounds like a plan.

0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Excellent. We paid it forward. Dennis, will see you down

0:20:51.720 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 2>there tonight. Thank you very much. All the great stories

0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 2>are coming through. Christmas Special on five top of Tuesday.

0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:03.320
<v Speaker 2>Christian and talk this morning about the Christmas Day toy

0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:05.600
<v Speaker 2>that didn't last long. They got broken. When I was younger,

0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:08.399
<v Speaker 2>all I wanted for Christmas was a penny skateboard. On

0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Christmas morning, I got the penny board, went to the

0:21:10.880 --> 0:21:12.359
<v Speaker 2>local park to test it out. I was having a

0:21:12.400 --> 0:21:14.960
<v Speaker 2>little bit of trouble using it, so my dad decided

0:21:15.000 --> 0:21:15.560
<v Speaker 2>to show me.

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:22.000
<v Speaker 3>So much harder than you think to write.

0:21:21.880 --> 0:21:24.280
<v Speaker 2>And how many stories have you got about? And then

0:21:24.359 --> 0:21:26.919
<v Speaker 2>Dad got hold of it like the Barbie fairy that

0:21:27.160 --> 0:21:28.840
<v Speaker 2>he just got too much of it, yanked to and

0:21:28.880 --> 0:21:32.159
<v Speaker 2>her wings flew off. He got on and started moving it,

0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:39.040
<v Speaker 2>but we just heard about the dad doing the bum

0:21:39.080 --> 0:21:42.080
<v Speaker 2>and drop and the trampoline, breaking it before his kids

0:21:42.080 --> 0:21:46.480
<v Speaker 2>could even get on it. On Christmas Day, here goes Sunday.

0:21:47.080 --> 0:21:51.119
<v Speaker 2>We tried to super glue with this great work, but

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:59.160
<v Speaker 2>then my granddad prefers to his car one. Oh my god,

0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:02.240
<v Speaker 2>it ruined my I was five, Christian. I'm in my fifties.

0:22:02.240 --> 0:22:05.760
<v Speaker 2>I still still dread Christmas the nightmares of the penny

0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:09.680
<v Speaker 2>baarning broken twice. You got two sets of fathers, two

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:14.280
<v Speaker 2>generations of fathers, Sophie. That's incredible. Kylie has got two

0:22:14.280 --> 0:22:17.479
<v Speaker 2>stories here. Unusual Christmas traditions One year, my family went

0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:20.480
<v Speaker 2>to carols by candlelight at the Mayor Music Bowl and

0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:22.960
<v Speaker 2>it was rained out. The only thing still dry was

0:22:23.000 --> 0:22:25.760
<v Speaker 2>the contents of our eski, which contained booze and food.

0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:27.960
<v Speaker 2>So we went home, got changed, and I had a

0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:31.879
<v Speaker 2>fresh picnic blanket on the front room floor and ate

0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:34.920
<v Speaker 2>off that. Every year since my now grown up children,

0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:38.080
<v Speaker 2>this is lovely. Every year since my now grown up

0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:41.400
<v Speaker 2>children love to set the pink blanket picnic blanket on

0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:44.640
<v Speaker 2>the floor and have picnic food and watch carols by.

0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:49.960
<v Speaker 2>It's a beautiful story. And then who's that guy? For dinner?

0:22:50.040 --> 0:22:52.280
<v Speaker 2>When I was young, my mother asked me to invite

0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:55.119
<v Speaker 2>the family from across the road. They were quite isolated

0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:58.960
<v Speaker 2>and deeply religious for Christmas dinner, which was our main

0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:02.800
<v Speaker 2>sort of roast dinner. I accidentally invited them and at

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:04.520
<v Speaker 2>one point, you're in the mill, one of the children

0:23:04.520 --> 0:23:10.280
<v Speaker 2>in the family started singing Happy Birthday Jesus. My grandmother

0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:19.200
<v Speaker 2>yelled out, bless him, he thinks, bless him, he thinks

0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:22.720
<v Speaker 2>it's someone's birthday. Got to know of this kid. All

0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:25.679
<v Speaker 2>good signs for the rest of the Christmas dinner, and

0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:28.680
<v Speaker 2>soon my mum was mortified. We've in all being told

0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:31.120
<v Speaker 2>to be on our best behavior with our religious neighbors.

0:23:31.240 --> 0:23:33.200
<v Speaker 2>We never saw them again. We invited them around a

0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:36.080
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks later, but they refused to come. Kylie,

0:23:36.119 --> 0:23:39.520
<v Speaker 2>thank you very much. Let's go to Kelly. Good morning,

0:23:40.280 --> 0:23:43.399
<v Speaker 2>Hi Christian, Hey Kelly, welcome to the show. Which one

0:23:43.440 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 2>are you calling in about?

0:23:45.040 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 8>Uh?

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:46.440
<v Speaker 10>The one that got away?

0:23:46.640 --> 0:23:48.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh? Yeah, what toy did you want?

0:23:49.600 --> 0:23:49.639
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:52.840
<v Speaker 10>It was my kids. They were given a giant remote

0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 10>control shark that was inflated with heliums and they took

0:23:56.800 --> 0:24:00.280
<v Speaker 10>it outside and it floated away and the remote troll

0:24:00.359 --> 0:24:04.119
<v Speaker 10>did absolutely nothing. But the next day there was a

0:24:04.160 --> 0:24:06.919
<v Speaker 10>story on the news about a pilot in christ Church

0:24:07.000 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 10>that was startled by a giant flying shark.

0:24:11.880 --> 0:24:13.600
<v Speaker 4>Do you think it can really travel that far?

0:24:14.560 --> 0:24:18.720
<v Speaker 10>Possibly because it floated away really really quick.

0:24:20.400 --> 0:24:27.239
<v Speaker 2>Balloons, don't you? They go for miles crossin over there.

0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:32.320
<v Speaker 2>That's a great one, Ketty, thank you very much. You cool?

0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 2>Thank you by Michelle. Hello, Michelle, off you go. What's

0:24:37.800 --> 0:24:38.520
<v Speaker 2>your story for us?

0:24:39.320 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 12>I got the one that got away? Santa got in

0:24:43.040 --> 0:24:47.439
<v Speaker 12>our children a trampoline, one of those lightweight ones with

0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:51.280
<v Speaker 12>the net and it was a stormy, really really stormy

0:24:51.400 --> 0:24:55.800
<v Speaker 12>Christmas morning and went outside to see what Santa has gosh,

0:24:56.200 --> 0:25:00.159
<v Speaker 12>and the trampoline was gone and it was over. It

0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:01.160
<v Speaker 12>had gone over the.

0:25:01.040 --> 0:25:04.440
<v Speaker 8>Then into the paddy.

0:25:05.040 --> 0:25:08.479
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, it was all ripped, all the netting results and

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:11.359
<v Speaker 12>the youngest burst into tears because you know, he was
