Sinton Hewitt's part run
3:00
book is now available. You

can buy
3:05
it everywhere, I guess. From
3:07
the founder of part run, one
3:09
small step, the definitive account
3:11
of a run that became a
3:13
global movement. There you
3:15
go. Yeah, buy it. It was a call
3:17
on mine last night. surprised
3:20
it hasn't got a little quote from you. Is
3:24
it? Yeah, there is on the back. Is
3:26
there on the back? Yeah, look there. Oh,
3:29
yeah. No, there
3:31
there isn't. You've got to get out there. Really
3:36
uninspiring. God,
3:42
that'd be so weird doing that thing
3:44
for someone like that. I
3:46
know. It's like being asked
3:48
to do a panel. What do you mean? Well,
3:51
like a writing panel. Oh, yeah. Oh,
3:53
God. I want to know your
3:55
thoughts. Oh, my
3:57
God. Do
3:59
know what would be worse if I had to do one
4:01
or you had to do one and the other was in
4:03
the audience? What,
4:09
accidentally? No, I'm going
4:11
to come to your writing panel
4:13
thing tonight. You are? Yeah.
4:15
I'm going to come and... Well, it's
4:18
in brighter than that. So me and Patrick...
4:20
Welcome to Mailbag, by the way. What
4:22
would I think? Why is
4:24
he going? Well, I wouldn't have told
4:27
you I was doing it. No. No, I
4:29
would have told you for the pod.
4:31
I'm not talking about... I'm coming. Why are
4:33
you coming? Oh, for fuck's sake. Little
4:37
extra anxiety. No, loads
4:39
more anxiety. That's
4:42
a tight rope, isn't it, that night? Because
4:45
you'd have to be present and
4:47
give stuff, otherwise you're not. But
4:49
also thinking, fucking
4:51
hell, what's the other person
4:54
thinking? Also, what are you thinking?
4:58
I don't know, I haven't been there yet. I
5:01
thought if you actually took us another way.
5:04
Fucking hell, really. It's
5:09
really interesting. The
5:12
panel about Poddick, that'd be good.
5:14
Oh, God, we've done it. I know
5:16
what that's like. God,
5:21
we have! Yeah, we know what
5:23
that turned into. Lots of
5:25
giggling. It
5:28
did! Anyway,
5:34
welcome to Mailbag. Happy
5:36
weekend! Right,
5:38
so I went into our mail bag, had
5:40
a little sniff around at the top of
5:42
the mail bag. It was a letter. And
5:45
I had to have a little look at
5:48
because it was entitled. I was
5:50
entitled. I'm not going to tell
5:52
you. Do you want to hear it now? Do
5:54
you want to save it? Now? I can't. I
5:56
can't wait. OK. Shall
5:58
I give you the title? Yeah. Now. And then
6:00
we'll wait. Yeah. I think it'll be nice to let
6:02
me see. I don't know about waiting,
6:05
but give me a title. Ronnie
6:07
Barker letter. Wow.
6:09
See? Told you it was good. Stick
6:13
around to the end of
6:15
the episode to hear what that
6:17
email is. Wow. OK. Yeah.
6:21
Well produced, David.
6:24
Yeah. OK.
6:26
Right. Here we go. Do
6:29
you want to tell us what do? Stop. Bollock
6:33
operation quip from John
6:36
Freeman. Right. Are
6:38
we doing quip
6:41
only ones or? I
6:43
just don't want people to get
6:45
tired of quip. I want it to
6:47
be like a chocolate. OK, you
6:49
want a pepper with quips. I don't
6:51
want to tire of quip. That's
6:53
my issue, full stop, with me. Now
6:59
you're saying you can't sustain 20
7:02
minutes. How do you think I feel with
7:05
a lifetime? Yeah. I
7:08
like him so much. I just don't want
7:10
to... Done away. Let's have a
7:12
bollock operation quick. High chaps. A few
7:14
years ago, I had a minor operation
7:16
on one of my bollocks. And I
7:18
think serious. Just a little exploration on
7:20
the general anesthetic. Would you prefer if
7:22
he said testicle on his testicle? I
7:24
like bollocks. It
7:28
does lighten it. God, sorry. As the
7:30
day the operation approached, I started to
7:32
feel a little nervous, not due to
7:34
the operation, but because I convinced myself
7:36
that upon regaining consciousness, there would be
7:38
an ideal opportunity to make a quip
7:40
about my bollocks to the first member
7:43
of the hospital staff I saw. That
7:45
sounds a bit weird now, I think about
7:47
it, but even... No, at all. But at
7:49
the time, I was under a kind of
7:51
quip spell. Did I?
7:54
I became a little stressed. Would
7:58
I be able to speak, let
8:00
alone deliver a quip under such circumstances?
8:03
Would I even remember the quip I'd
8:05
planned? Would it be appropriate? Unique? Would
8:08
it raise a smile? Would we
8:10
met with stony silence? Given
8:12
that there would be no
8:14
quip set up, you
8:16
had to be quite sure, one sentence
8:19
only. As the anesthetist counted down,
8:21
I remember thinking, say the quip, say
8:23
the quip. It'll feel like
8:25
only a few seconds from now until
8:27
quick delivery. Darkness. I
8:30
came to a nurse, I came
8:32
to with a nurse standing over
8:34
the bed, groggy, struggling to think
8:36
straight. I whispered, are they both
8:38
still there? The nurse
8:40
smiled, or at least I think she did. I
8:43
was still off my head and said,
8:45
yes, they are. And then walked off.
8:48
I had succeeded. I
8:51
know you had. Although
8:55
I had succeeded.
8:58
What? I have to
9:00
say that minutes later as I fully
9:02
regain consciousness and in fact to this
9:04
very day remember remembering this makes me
9:06
feel a little empty and regretful. I
9:08
learned a hard lesson that day. Quips
9:10
must never be pre -planned. No
9:12
matter how alluring the circumstances. Since
9:14
then I've quipped, sure, but only
9:16
spontaneously. And if the moment
9:18
has passed, sorry mate. they
9:22
so still there? Yeah, but that
9:24
feels like they're both still there. She
9:26
says yes and then the
9:28
quick. He's
9:33
thrown the ball up. She's
9:36
responded and then you
9:38
walked away. What would you have
9:40
said? I don't know.
9:42
Would you mind checking? There
9:50
you go, top of your head. See?
9:56
You would have been great in the 70s.
9:59
I think you would. Couldn't
10:02
get away without now. What
10:05
about would you mind checking but something
10:07
to do with your teeth or something? Make
10:10
it blue. If you were to go
10:12
down the blue. We'd
10:14
just pop a love at the end. Would
10:19
you mind checking love? There
10:22
you go. Immediately grumpy. Yeah,
10:26
I can't do
10:28
it. That's not
10:30
my ballpark. Yeah, I do want
10:32
to. Well, there you go. There's
10:34
something in there. Very, very attractive.
10:38
Trust me. I'm
10:41
hanging on for dear life. I
10:43
love the bland Monday. Some
10:45
are so... So empty and
10:48
nothing. He's like, whoa. He
10:51
did worry me with the build -up. No,
10:54
I wasn't worried. I was like,
10:56
God, he's a good little storyteller.
10:58
Yeah, he's a good... Yeah, so
11:00
you think... He's pre -planned it, so
11:02
it's good. Yeah.
11:06
Yeah. Blimey. Right.
11:09
Next one. Yeah, just up there.
11:15
It's from Mike. Dear
11:17
Chatterbecks, Crunch Crunch. This was
11:20
sent a month ago. Congratulations
11:22
on your mutual wives hobby of
11:24
pot making. I'm just writing because we
11:26
actually have a lot of soap
11:28
dishes in our house. So
11:30
happy to receive them. We'll
11:33
not exchange any money for them because
11:35
I'm a tight ass. Actually, I live
11:37
in Finland and postage which will cost
11:39
an arm and a leg. So
11:42
just forget about this whole thing. I
11:45
do have an addressing bath. Next
11:48
time, David's there, he could drop them off.
11:51
It's an addressing bath. I
11:54
cannot necessarily guarantee that it will be
11:56
put on eBay, but I can't necessarily guarantee
11:58
that it won't go on eBay. Anyway,
12:01
have a nice weekend, every weekend, forever. Best
12:03
regards, Mike. Thank
12:05
you for your email. Good
12:08
evening. This is
12:10
from Daniel Lavattie from Back in
12:12
the Winter, January. the
12:14
celebrity childhood catcher. Crunch, crunch, gentlemen,
12:16
I will keep it short and
12:18
sweet. My childhood experiences of fame
12:20
being taken to work with my
12:23
friend by his mum, who was
12:25
a cleaner, found a pretend cut
12:27
off finger with fake blood on
12:29
display and picked it up to
12:31
have a play. Then greeted by
12:33
a shout of put it down.
12:36
I turn around to see the one
12:38
and only Keith Cheggwin. Simple.
12:44
Keith Tegwin told you to put a
12:46
fake finger down. Look
12:50
at me. I'd write in if I'd
12:52
had that. Celebrity
12:56
interactions are good, aren't they? Oh,
12:59
I love them. Love
13:01
them. One more. Celebrity.
13:04
Celebrity in my village.
13:06
Yeah. From Tim Saxby.
13:09
Hello, chaps. I grew
13:11
up in Brow, Broff.
13:13
A small village outside
13:15
Hull. One day, a
13:17
rumour spread like wildfire that
13:19
a certain James Bond actor was
13:22
moving in. Wow. That's right. Daniel
13:24
Craig was relocating to the
13:26
east riding of Yorkshire. Unfortunately,
13:30
I never actually saw him myself. In fact,
13:32
it seems the sheer excitement of the locals
13:34
was enough to scare him off entirely. He
13:37
reportedly backed out of the
13:39
agreement. Isn't
13:42
this like tomato for
13:44
your sister? So
13:47
much excitement going
13:49
there. Fucking
13:51
hell, there's nothing to it. Literally
13:58
nothing to the story. James
14:00
Bond does not move to my
14:03
village. Anyone could
14:05
say that. At

16:05
State Farm is there. Hi
16:14
David and Joe, this is from
16:16
Sarah Swift Stafford, way back in October
16:18
last year. Hello to you both. I've
16:22
just listened to one of your mailbag
16:24
episodes and hearing your sheer excitement at
16:26
the thought of a chatterbox get sending
16:28
a musical sound bite inspired me to
16:30
put something together for you. I
16:32
used an AI voice because I
16:34
wanted a male vocal. I'm a 48
16:36
year old woman. Little
16:38
about me, I'm a private music tutor. Tutor,
16:41
I run my own music
16:43
school. Caster Music Tuition. I
16:46
also have a YouTube channel, the same
16:48
name. During COVID, I offered free
16:50
online lessons for students struggling financially or
16:52
mentally. And I wanted to keep that
16:54
spirit alive even after things would turn
16:56
to normal. I play through
16:58
various learning books across several instruments,
17:01
compose songs of various genres and
17:03
create rossy free instrumental music for
17:05
anyone who needs it. And
17:07
I created a little theme
17:09
tune for your guests, a celebrity
17:11
age game. It sounds
17:14
like a game, didn't we play that? Yeah,
17:16
the one you nicked off. Maybe.
17:21
But just in case it slipped under the radar,
17:23
I've concluded it here so you can ever
17:25
listen whenever you like. Now, in
17:27
three years or never, whatever happens, I'm still a
17:29
fan of the pub. Hope you enjoy the tunes. Have
17:34
you sent
17:36
it to me?
17:40
Or is it? Should I? Not worry. I
17:42
don't know. Well, I've
17:44
only listened to three
17:46
seconds. Okay,
17:50
here we go. So
17:52
this is for the celebrity
17:55
age game, I think. It's
18:06
Joe and Dave, they're born
18:08
again, chatting up life's daily spin,
18:10
From dentist to pop jokes,
18:12
cheers a laugh chat spills our
18:14
ears, Crush, crush for the
18:16
chatter bits boots, tune in daily,
18:18
get your fixit campus nods
18:20
far trips, life's more fun with
18:22
chatter bits Emails read guests
18:24
in tow stories flow, the laughs
18:27
just grow A toss of
18:29
the plectrum, who can say, Crocodile
18:31
play, suit, cut to play? let's
18:42
all listen, can't resist, it's hard
18:44
to miss, that's what she said,
18:46
with laughs and tales that never
18:49
quit, crotch crotch, we're all in
18:51
it, crotch crotch for the chatter
18:53
bits, tune in daily, get your
18:55
fixit, campus pubs and far off
18:57
trips, life's more fun with chatter
18:59

19:03
there's third verse, I'll be over the
19:05
moon. Let's
19:09
all listen, can't resist, it's hard
19:11
to miss, that's what she said,
19:14
with laughs and tales that never
19:16
quit, crotch crotch, we're all in
19:18
it, crotch crotch for the chatter
19:20
bits, tune in daily, get your
19:22
fixit, campus pubs and far off
19:24
trips, life's more fun with chatter
19:27
bits. I
19:36
felt like I had to get to the end. It's
19:43
one forty. Fuck.
19:46
Well, I guess my jingle's a fucking long
19:49
as well. Fuck,
19:51
no. It did remind me
19:53
of something that could be in a, I
19:55
don't know, a
19:57
bandy. It's quite bandy. Yeah. Grunch,
20:00
grunch, just janna bits. Did
20:02
it, did it, it? Oh, it's a
20:04
game show thing. What?
20:10
She's done the theme tune to How Old
20:12
Celebrity Game Show. Another
20:14
one. Fuck him out. It's
20:17
going to take up nearly five minutes of
20:19
the pod. Do you want this or Roddy Barker?
20:22
I do obviously want Roddy Barker, but
20:24
I feel like I'm sort of
20:26
trapped now. Is
20:37
this the second one? I
20:39
like it. How
20:45
old? How old? How
20:48
old? Can
20:50
you guess? Can you unfold? Get
20:52
a right to win the gold.
20:55
So how old? How old? How
20:57
old? How old? So
21:00
let you know and love so dear.
21:02
Can you tell me, tell us their
21:04
birth year? For TV and film from
21:07
near and far. You know how old?
21:18
God, this is like a real lesson
21:20
learned for me. James,
21:26
don't... anything I make,
21:28
don't play it for longer
21:31
than 25 seconds. Oh,
21:34
my God, I feel low. The
21:38
old skip button. Thank
21:40
God for the skip button. Oh
21:43
my God, I feel really empty. Well,
21:46
do you think that's what you've been doing? Yeah.
21:50
Well, there's obviously some... That sounded like
21:52
a game show. No,
21:54
thank you for that, by the way. But
21:57
why are you feeling so low? Well,
21:59
I'm just thinking about my shit that I
22:01
churn out. I'm
22:03
not saying that was just
22:06
saying... Well, well... Seems
22:09
the timing seems like it's
22:12
got something to do with
22:14
it. Hello,
22:17
hello. How
22:20
are you? Sometimes
22:23
you think it's really hard, I
22:26
think, to make music that not just
22:28
you go, I like that because
22:30
you've created it. It must be hard
22:32
to get to the next level. But
22:35
people go, I like that.
22:37
Other people like that. What's
22:39
your point? Well,
22:41
what's your point? You're feeling low. I'm
22:44
just riding the wave. Do
22:50
you want this fucking Ronnie
22:52
Barker letter? Not with that
22:54
attitude. Here
22:57
we go. We got a
23:00
message sent in. I don't know what... I
23:02
haven't read this at all. I just
23:04
saw the... This is from Raylene Webb, sent
23:06
a couple of days ago. Hello,
23:08
Joan David. I just finished listening
23:11
to Joe's 50th birthday pot. Happy
23:13
birthday. Thank you. Attached
23:15
is a copy of the
23:17
letter Ronnie Barker sent me
23:19
in 1986. Wow.
23:22
I wondered if Joe would like to see it.
23:24
Yes, please. He and Ronnie Colbert
23:26
were in Australia to film a series of shows for
23:28
television. Ronnie Barker was on a
23:30
chat show and said he collected old
23:32
postcards. I had some old
23:34
postcards and sent them to him. He sent
23:36
me the attached thank you letter, which
23:38
I was not expecting. I
23:40
cried like Joe did with his brother, gave him
23:42
the signed photo. I hope Joe likes
23:44
it. I also don't live at
23:46
that address anymore. I had a tear
23:49
when David Jason wished Joe a happy birthday
23:51
too. So.
23:56
Dear Miss Webb. It
23:59
was very kind of you. 30th
24:02
of June, 1986. How
24:05
old would he have been? I
24:07
would have been 11. What about
24:09
him? Oh, it's
24:11
interesting how old I was. No,
24:15
I was just thinking about being 11, that's
24:17
why. I think
24:19
he's 57. What was
24:21
that noise? Just thinking
24:23
of him alive. Oh, yeah. Dear
24:26
Miss Webb, it was very kind
24:28
of you to send the cards
24:30
and I shall be pleased to
24:32
add them to my collection. Thank
24:35
you, yours, Ronnie
24:37
Barker. Wow.
24:40
Has it framed in her? Has she found
24:42
it? She's got
24:44
the little...
24:46
Wow. She's
24:49
got Oh, wow. Just
24:51
got the little envelope
24:53
with his writing, her address
24:55
on the front of
24:57
his writing. Send
24:59
it to Australia. Amazing
25:01
thing to do though. Send it.
25:03
Yeah. No
25:06
one else is ever gonna get one of those. That's
25:08
what's going on in my head. God,
25:10
have you ever received a Ronnie Barker? No,
25:13
actually. I'm talking about. How would he
25:15
do that? Keep fucking nose out of
25:17
it. Show us.
25:21
What? What are you
25:23
on about? Well, I just felt like
25:25
I was asking people to show us
25:27
their underwear. Shall
25:30
I show Ronnie Barker letters? What? Well,
25:33
I just thought, like, you know, some
25:35
things are private and there's me going, I'll
25:37
put it... I don't know what you
25:39
asked and then... If you've ever been sent
25:41
a letter, a private letter for Ronnie
25:44
Barker, can we read it out on the
25:46
board? Also, don't think you're going to
25:48
get loads of them. Have
25:51
you ever read a thank
25:53
you letter from Ronnie Barker
25:55
between the years of 84
25:57
and 87? When
26:01
you, when you like to use the part
26:03
of the way of sort of reaching out to
26:05
any Ronnie Barker. I
26:08
don't know what way I want to reach out
26:10
to them. No. Then
26:13
it's nice to have little surprises rather than
26:15
go send me. Imagine I get bored of
26:17
seeing Ronnie Barker letters. That be horrendous. thought
26:19
when I said that thing. I was like,
26:21
oh, shut up. Oh, someone else has sent
26:23
me a letter. I'd hate that. Oh,
26:26
fucking hell, I've got pretend to like it. Just
26:29
keep the one keep it
26:31
one and magical. Do not send
26:33
any. Into this
26:35
pod. But just I
26:37
don't want a mass
26:39
of them. One
26:44
every six months. Yeah.
26:49
Another letter? Yeah. Littering.
26:52
Yes. Amy. Alright chaps,
26:54
as a long time listener the pod, I was
26:56
delighted to hear you're asking for littering stories,
26:59
as I have a pretty good one. I
27:01
was 19 wandering through my
27:03
hometown of Oldham, and to
27:05
give you a bit of backstory, my car had just
27:07
broken down, I'd just been dumped. I
27:09
bought myself a lovely cheese savoury
27:12
sandwich to try, and
27:14
chewed myself up. And
27:16
just as I was
27:18
about to take my
27:20
last bite, I dropped
27:22
it on the floor. I'd
27:24
never usually litter, but
27:27
as it was also chucking it down, I
27:29
left it. And it was food, right? Yeah.
27:32
I got a firm tap on the
27:35
shoulder. And a voice said,
27:37
excuse me, young lady, I
27:39
am a law enforcement
27:42
officer, and you have just
27:44
committed a crime, which
27:46
holds a 50 pound penalty.
27:49
I've been busted. As
27:51
I gave them my name and address,
27:53
a pigeon hopped up and ate the
27:55
evidence. And
27:58
the fine came through a few
28:00
days later. Wow, she got fined. Yeah,
28:02
but it's also food and animals
28:04
can eat it. Fuck
28:06
me. I'd
28:09
love to get that law enforcement officer
28:11
on. Charges are slim.
28:15
When the fine came through a few days
28:17
later, I sent a letter explaining the circumstances. As
28:20
I didn't hear anything for a few
28:22
months, assumed I got away with it.
28:25
God, I feel like bloody, that's
28:27
life. Yeah,
28:30
it's good. What is that?
28:32
What's her name? Esther
28:35
Anson. Felt like she's just passed on,
28:37
passed this over to Chris Searle. I
28:41
then received it, of course. A
28:44
few months later. Well,
28:47
I had to attend court.
28:49
I pay a 200 pound fee.
28:52
Dropping a bit of pasty. Sandwich,
28:56
save me cheap sandwich. Sure. The
28:59
most embarrassing thing about the whole event
29:01
was that I was also working at
29:03
Older Mathletic Football Club at the time
29:05
and had gone straight to work after
29:07
the original event. The
29:09
press guy from the local paper was in
29:11
there. And as my news was obviously
29:13
more exciting than whatever the latex had got
29:15
up to that weekend, he convinced me
29:18
to do a tell all scoop. Not
29:23
convinced that local girl drops
29:25
bread crust on floor would make
29:27
the press. I told him
29:29
the story, but politely refused
29:31
to do the frown at a piece
29:33
of bread photo. Much
29:35
to my mate's
29:37
amusement. It was on the
29:39
front of the paper the next day.
29:41
cheese, butty, Amy in a pickle. And
29:45
meant that I was just known
29:47
as cheese for the next 10 years.
29:50
Anyway, thanks for the lolz, crunch, crunch,
29:52
Amy, cheese, butty, best. And
29:54
she sent in the front
29:56
page of the Oldham Chronicle. She
29:59
sent in? Yeah. I've
30:01
seen that. Cheese, butty, Amy
30:03
in pickle, student fine 50 pound
30:05
for dropping sandwich crust. Well,
30:11
great email. That's amazing. Yeah.
30:14
You can drop food, can't you? There's
30:17
no one else fixated on this. You
30:19
can drop food. What, you mean me? Well,
30:22
yeah, you. I
30:25
like you drop food all the time.
30:27
You don't to pick food up. Well,
30:30
if someone, if you were walking in
30:32
front of, behind someone, someone just
30:34
dropped half a sandwich, deliberate or not,
30:37
because you don't know them. I
30:39
was just on the pain, would you
30:41
go, fucking hell mate? I would, but I
30:43
would be, but like, it decomposes. Like...
30:46
It's been a right quandary! Plastic
30:49
doesn't... Cork on, cork on! But
30:56
like, plastic don't go anywhere. That's
30:58
got to I know what you're saying, but... what
31:00
would you think? If I was walking in front of
31:02
you, you didn't know me, and I just dropped
31:05
half a burger on the floor. You wouldn't like that.
31:07
No, I wouldn't like that at all, no. Well,
31:10
it decomposes, sir. I
31:14
think I've imagined it's a
31:16
small edge of a sandwich.
31:18
Yeah. Anyway, one
31:20
more for luck, and then... One more for
31:22
luck. Quipping
31:27
about my dead dad.
31:29
Wow. Christopher. Shall we try
31:31
a quipping mailbag? Fully
31:33
quipped. Yeah. Okay.
31:36
Oh, someone said you could call
31:38
it Wikipedia. Yeah.
31:46
Hi chaps from Chris Fuchs.
31:49
I bumped into an old friend and his
31:51
dad a few years ago. The
31:53
conversation went as follows. Friends
31:56
dad. Hi, Chris. How are
31:58
you? Me. Fine, thanks. Friends,
32:01
Dad. I was talking to
32:03
your Dad last week. He seems well.
32:05
Me. Fucking hell. How? He's been dead six
32:07
years. How are you talking to him?
32:09
Weed your board. Stunned
32:14
silence. Oh,
32:17
so why does his mate... Well, more importantly,
32:19
why does his dad... His mate's dad think
32:21
he was talking to him? I don't know. To
32:23
make any sense. Can
32:30
we have one more, please? If
32:32
it's as good as that, yeah. Stun
32:35
silence. Stun silence, great
32:37
podcast, good work, Chris. I
32:41
do like you, you just type away
32:43
a little thank... You tap him thanks
32:45
for your email, doesn't even break you,
32:48
you're still chatting as you do it
32:50
now, don't you? Oh,
32:53
God, I love it. Another
32:56
one? And then I've got to go. Pick
32:59
anyone? Yeah, just quit it. A
33:01
quip that didn't land from Brad. Love
33:03
it. Brad
33:05
Garethley. Fresh out
33:07
of college whilst at my first job
33:09
at a high -end department store. I learned
33:11
that quips don't always land. I
33:13
was working alongside my colleague when I saw
33:16
an older gentleman come up to them and
33:18
asked for help. I overheard
33:20
him say, I think I've
33:22
lost my wife in the store,
33:24
which I piped up with. Have
33:28
you tried lost property, mate? Yes,
33:31
yes. That sounds like one of
33:33
yours. Absolutely do
33:35
not be ashamed of that. Which
33:38
definitely didn't land with the
33:40
man. Oh, my golly. All
33:43
the best, Bradley. I thought that was good. That's
33:45
a good quit. Don't ever, yeah, don't
33:47
ever back out of that one. Yeah.
33:50
Yeah, he tried lost property. Good,
33:52
that's good. That's solid. Right.
33:55
That's it. Cheers, everyone.
33:57
Cheers, everyone. Bye. I'm

the stress. Is it what did you do
35:03
