96
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: Natalie Common and Natalie, my mum is in her own words,

97
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: a very strong, devout Christian. And on both occasions she

98
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: has run out of petrol. She's been on a hill

99
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: of sorts and rolled into a petrol station at the

100
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: bottom of the hill. She always says, the Lord works

101
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 1: in mysterious ways. I just say it's dumb luck. I

102
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: love that, Natalie Christian. Many years ago, my husband used

103
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: to run out of petrol all the time. How can

104
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: you do this all the time? One occasion, he ran

105
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,799
Speaker 1: out of petrol the end of the freeway. He wondered

106
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: about three hundred meters away to a servo with a

107
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,239
Speaker 1: Jerry can. I waited patient in the car. I happened

108
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: to look in the rear visionary and a notice that

109
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: behind us very long cue. Right behind us there was

110
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: a funeral procession in the hers. There was only one

111
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: exit lane, and nowhere to go. I was so mortified.

112
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 1: I slid down in my seat and waited until my

113
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: now ex husbands broke up in that car. He just left.

114
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: I could see he was just having a lovely long

115
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: chat to the servo attendant. No rush whatsoever. The funeral

116
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: directors were waving their hands around all over the place

117
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: and booping their horns. I don't think they're allowed to

118
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: beat their horns. I don't know if you. I've never

119
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: forgotten the shame. That's from Michelle b Anchor. Good morning,

120
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: good morning, Good morning, be anchored, so running out of fuel.

Speaker 1: What happened?

122
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 4: Oh, my husband bought a new boat and decided, nice day,

123
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 4: go out on the bay. Wonderful launch the boat cruising along.

124
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 4: All of a sudden they had a fuel The boat stopped.

125
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 4: We had to paddle into shore. Finally made it to shore,

126
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 4: missed all the rocks at the end of Oliver's Hill.

127
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 4: They're on the point. I had to jump out with

128
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 4: the fuel tank, walk up the hill and walk into

129
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 4: a school as to use the phone so that my

130
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 4: little brother could come and get me so I could

131
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:43,679
Speaker 4: get more fuel.

132
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: So where do you go to get more fuel if

133
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: the boat's run out?

134
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: Uh?

135
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 4: You have to put the oars in the water and

136
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 4: paddle like crazy to get to shore.

137
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: Bloody hell, what a nightmare. Never even thought about that.

138
