Speaker 1: friend of his who's a locksmith and he was working
Speaker 1: on one of the most recent Star Wars movies out
Speaker 1: of Pinewood Studios and the big warant famous movie studios
Speaker 1: in London, Pinewood, right, and his mate was a locksmith.
Speaker 1: I've got no idea what locksmith is doing on Stars.
Speaker 1: They give me a coat hanger and chase after the buddies.
Speaker 1: But anyway, being Huggy's friend obviously a bit of a
Speaker 1: shady character, he borrowed something, took something from the set
Speaker 1: on the last day we all would well Star Wars.
Speaker 2: It was like a proper.
Speaker 1: Model model or something yain and had it away that
Speaker 1: would be worth thousands of thousands, you know, those geeks
Speaker 1: are like something from the actual movie and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: And it's also from a locksmith on the movie as well.
Speaker 1: That's the person. Those comic cons, they've got the biggest
Speaker 1: queue to sign up. Wait, you were the lost smith.

Speaker 2: in there and like meet the mascots and kick footies
Speaker 2: and that sort of thing. I worked there for only
Speaker 2: two weeks, and as I was leaving, I took one
Speaker 2: of the replica mascot heads of the Western Bulldogs. So
Speaker 2: anytime we had parties around at our house, someone would

Speaker 4: like those cross arrows that were in the cars on display,
Speaker 4: so they sort of stuck them in their skyrockets. And
Speaker 4: we're just being security, just sort of seeing them do it,

Speaker 1: Of course they all right, Phil Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: You col well, send your price.
Speaker 4: Have a good day, no worries.
Speaker 5: Thank you, bye, Mark, good morning morning. In the nineties
Speaker 5: I used to work in a nightclub known as the
Speaker 5: Kitchen in Dublin Island. One night Bono came down with you,
Speaker 5: I think it was Billy Corgan from the Fashion Pumpkins
Speaker 5: and get a lovely Sway jacket on. And he would
Speaker 5: often just turn those over the bar and say take
Speaker 5: care of this. I'll grab it from your lad. And
Speaker 5: of course you didn't, so I thought.
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you that lovely that's Alice Sway jacket.
Speaker 5: I have that exactly. I tried it on its ship.
Speaker 5: I look really good in it. Oh way better little bars.
Speaker 1: Alight. Mark, thank you very much. You take care of mate.
Speaker 1: Absolutely no respectful. It's one thing to steal in another
Speaker 1: man's rock and roll sway jacket. That is there's a
Speaker 1: line sometimes, dear listener, his back. This should restore everything.
Speaker 1: Is it really who? It looks like it's been too long,
Speaker 1: hasn't it. Our good friend Brett, who was in neighbors
Speaker 1: as Ken Timmins, is good. Whatever you call the show,
Speaker 1: it's always a good story. Brett good morning, Good morning everyone.
Speaker 6: How are we?
Speaker 1: We're good? All the better from hearing from you, Brett.
Speaker 1: So is this something you stole from the neighbours set?
Speaker 6: No, no, it wasn't something I start from the neighbor said,
Speaker 6: although I did play a shifty character that as you know.
Speaker 6: But no, this is my story is of the late seventies.
Speaker 6: I used to work for the brewery and I used
Speaker 6: to knock booze off all the time as a driver.
Speaker 6: And the idea was that if you broke I used
Speaker 6: to work, I used to deliver a dozen bottles of
Speaker 6: beers and there were sixty four boxes to a palette.
Speaker 6: But if you broke a few bottles when delivering or
Speaker 6: something like that, you had to take back the bottles
Speaker 6: that were left and the tops. So when you took
Speaker 6: the tops back, you know, the three or four tops
Speaker 6: that you had, Those three or four tops were just
Speaker 6: sitting in my ashtray, and I put those in the
Speaker 6: box and keep the four bottles out of the twelve
Speaker 6: and put those into a Gladston bag. And the Gladston
Speaker 6: bag held exactly one dozen bottles of beer. And the
Speaker 6: amazing thing, you'd sneak that out once you'd finished for
Speaker 6: the afternoon or the night, and you go past the
Speaker 6: security guard. He's an extruck driver, so he knows what's
Speaker 6: in the bag.
Speaker 1: Describing how you stole the vango or something.
Speaker 2: This is like more descriptive than Ocean's eleven.
Speaker 1: And that was a three hour moon, that Gladstone bag.
Speaker 6: And the thing was when you when you bought past.
Speaker 6: Because the bag was quite heavy with a dozen bottles.
Speaker 6: So I used to put it up on my shoulder
Speaker 6: as I'm carrying it out, because I know the security
Speaker 6: guard is at the next drive and he knows. But
Speaker 6: as I do that, I walk past the intram and
Speaker 6: go off for crying out lamb. But it don't make
Speaker 6: it obvious. Just carry the bag normally, and everybody and
Speaker 6: every driver was doing it. So of course then I
Speaker 6: started seating my friend's boot and I started selling it
Speaker 6: on the side, and oh my lord, it was I
Speaker 6: started my own little entrepreneurial business.
Speaker 1: Start like a paramid scheme. It feels like this old
Speaker 1: Stowy needs his own ten podcast series, Episode one, just
Speaker 1: buying that Gladstone bag. I'm going to get what today,
Speaker 1: all right, Bra. It's always a joys a joy talking
Speaker 1: to you. Call the show anytime. We love hearing from
Speaker 1: you man. I hope you will take care.
Speaker 6: Thanks, thanks, have a great name.
Speaker 1: Gladstone.
