<v Speaker 5>married so that i'd know how to use it to

0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 5>become a good housewife and mother. It is huge, just

0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 5>about the size of a small oven, like.

0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 3>Some of those values obviously brought in the seventies as well.

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:27.399

<v Speaker 5>paid it off over three years.

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 2>Six hundred dollars in what year seventy seven? But that's

<v Speaker 2>one like three million or something.

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:53.880

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, we go, Brad. What's the oldest supplies you own? Mate?

0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:58.200
<v Speaker 1>I've got a clock from Iteen eighty four, which has

0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:02.839
<v Speaker 1>been handed down to through generations to firstborn sons from

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 1>my great great grandfather who played cricket for Victoria.

0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Is quite perfectly, does it?

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Yes? It does.

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 6>Has the clock got something to do with him playing

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:14.720
<v Speaker 6>cricket or you were just big enough?

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:16.000
<v Speaker 2>Or did he win it?

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:19.360
<v Speaker 1>No, he wanted He made one hundred in the first

0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:22.560
<v Speaker 1>innings and he went out for eighty nine in the

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:24.480
<v Speaker 1>second innings and it would have been the first ever

0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:27.160
<v Speaker 1>two centuries in the same match if he got to

0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>one hundred in the second innings, but he didn't. So

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:30.520
<v Speaker 1>they thought we'll give you a clock.

0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:37.680
<v Speaker 2>Is that clock? Give him that and I took my.

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Dad for his seventieth birthday down to the mc seed

0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:44.640
<v Speaker 1>and we did a tour of the the museum and stuff,

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:46.240
<v Speaker 1>and we took the clock to show them and they

0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:48.720
<v Speaker 1>were just drooling over it and there was nothing discussed

0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 1>something of that generation in there. It was. They were

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>just amazed. They wanted to put it on display. And

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:58.480
<v Speaker 1>what did you say, Well, I said, if you bring

0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:02.440
