It was she got the 82 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: wrong day, and so she walked into the school quadrangle 83 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: and my mate said, what your mom did up here? 84 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: And what you're doing with the pair of roller skats? 85 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: I said, they must have been my brothers.
