And yeah, hope it didn't muck you up too much with all daylight savings kicking off it's your little today. Yeah. Yeah. But I had done
00:02:03
Speaker
Phone call from the olds who are overseas at the moment. And I was at eight o'clock this morning. No idea that it's still like morning, kind of woke me up this morning. And the presenters tried to tell me what what time it was. It's like, no, it's 7.30 over there. I was like, ah, it's like 8.30 now. No, it's 7.30. Daylight savings.
00:02:25
Speaker
Ah yeah, ah shit, ah sorry. That's the general discussion though for old people A. Like after a day like so, this is about seven straight days of discussing what the time actually is and what it should have been. And saying, ah I must reset that clock. I always look at it and it's the wrong time. Yeah, or the classic one. yeah I was just getting used to it. It's been nine months.
00:02:53
Speaker
And that's that's it to from today, which is the 29th of September to the 6th of April next year. So if we lose that, or we gain that hour, whatever it is.

Listener Feedback and Rugby Clarifications

00:03:03
Speaker
but yeah So yeah, hopefully we've got our action packed.
00:03:08
Speaker
Sequel to last week's episode. um But yeah, we did want to dive into that first up in today's episode. Just yeah, we had some wanted to have some clarifications. I think we had. um Yeah, but other kind of feedback. So um who wants to kind of have that bit of recap?
00:03:25
Speaker
Oh, I'll request the recap. um So I was listening to the potty, hitting up, going on way a bit of a trip away with my sons. And by the end of the potty, when they're talking about Kieran's new role and stuff, I listened to it twice and I still don't know what the fuck he does. I'd like to get a bit of more clarification from Uncle Wayne last night. but um So what's Kieran's job?
00:03:50
Speaker
Well, I think it's, I'll be talking about this, General Manager or CEO, those are the two titles that one's on paper, but one's just a common term that they call them. So from maybe from, I don't know, a different era. I reckon we should go with General Manager because um when I look at Karen, the executive doesn't come to mind.
00:04:15
Speaker
or bad parenting bulldozer, just think things like that. But executive does heation as another one. ah Open door shits.
00:04:29
Speaker
ah Yeah, so the the sporty NZ website ah names him as the new King Country Rugby Union general manager. So that's kind of the public facing ah title if you want to. That's a fucking that's a decent fucking title. Yep. Congratulations, by the way.
00:04:50
Speaker
yes Yeah, Miles was a bit confused last night. He was like, I thought Karim was a forklift driver. I'm straight from that to CEO of King Country Rugby. I to be the top stripper in Topo by tomorrow.
00:05:08
Speaker
Oh, we may have a connection there. um you You were saying ah Uncle Wayne had a bit of a backstory or a bit of history of how Karen got into the throw. And I feel bad for we should invite him to this conversation at some stage.
00:05:23
Speaker
It's sort of easier, because then you can speculate a bit more. True. No, it's like Wayne, I was like, how does he get into a role like that? Because obviously, I thought he ran a little team of logistics people, and then jump into there. So I wasn't aware that a few of the things he had done with Miraka, was it Miraka? Yeah. Go to Japan and do a few things there.
00:05:48
Speaker
Yeah, I think of China. Oh, China? China, Singapore. Singapore. All those countries are not that close. Yeah, China. In Singapore, I think of the two. It's like a bit of a trade center. A lot of people do trade through there. But yeah, he was pretty high up there. I mean, he's a bit of a hard worker, eh, Kev? Yeah. Pretty well driven. Yeah, I was going to say, he's pretty motivated and driven.
00:06:13
Speaker
once he has his mindset on something. But yeah, I don't think this is a new thing. The rugby's not a new thing for him. Was at grassroots level for a while, doing a lot of stuff, eh? Well, obviously, he did get that leg up in there from you. and Yes, well, i technically was...
00:06:32
Speaker
Well, as a volunteer, I'm an employee. Or does getting a box of piss count as a remuneration? If you're in the door, you're in the door. yeah yeah ah Well, i let's sort it that way. I was in the door first. So smooth the way. A lot of people started out volunteering, you know? A lot of people. Yeah, well. I can't think of any right now. No, but I'm sure there are. I'm sure there are.
00:06:55
Speaker
yeah Yeah, no, so he's done quite a bit. um I've just seen a a message to let him know that we're up here. yeah So hopefully, I think he's coming back from Hamilton yeah because I think he's had another game today for the under-16s or something like that. So yeah, he's coaching. He's kind of doing a whole bunch of other stuff as well.

Tributes and Rugby Victories

00:07:12
Speaker
Before we get go on anymore, I did miss a bit of a shout out that you wanted to give there, Randy. Oh, yeah, just it's been um ah as as sort of the times go on there. You know, we we start losing.
00:07:26
Speaker
some of the the legends around our life and stuff. And was it last week, week before? We lost ah Colin Kingie, bit of a legend around Mango. Just got me thinking about a couple of um stories. You know, I was sharing with Uncle Jimmy last night and I thought, um you know, just to, as the character that he was, chuck that out there as well, really. Yes, yeah how old was he? Typical.
00:07:52
Speaker
Because they're podcasts? I don't know. No research. I think it's about the similar age to DogAce, so it'd be like mid 60s. Yeah. Yeah, okay. Yeah. Jeez, he looks good for mid-60s then. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think he's double dipping now. Is that a youth Muslim for some reason? Yeah. Does Aunty Shones know about this? No, he's just getting the old pension and still doing a few days of work there at the mill. Allegedly. Allegedly. Oh, are you? Does he do in Spain for quarter as well? Yeah, well, there's no laws against double dipping.
00:08:28
Speaker
Yeah, nah, he's funny, eh, because, you know, back in the day you would've thought, oh yeah, Dog's gonna be the boldest of everyone later on in life, but he's actually got more, other than his initial ball patch that he sort of developed, the rest of his head stayed fuckin' like as fuck. I think he's actually had that ball patch for quite a number of years as well. Yeah, he's just got the ball patch and then it just ceased. Yeah. How old is this ball patch?
00:08:53
Speaker
but As old as I am, I think. Yeah, I'd say 25, yes. That's not good. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, whatever you're doing, dog, keep doing it, mate. yeah It's working. Eating the tux.
00:09:08
Speaker
on the docks. He's got a good coate, good coate. Her man Bess were at the game yesterday. I was over in Tiquiti doing the ground announcing over there. um Beautiful day over there and a bit of the valley there. And um yeah, so I had a couple of coffees and all that sort of stuff. I haven't had much of a chat because I'm always on there on the one twos. But I got a quick hug in from Bess and it was a good game actually. um King Country vs North Otago. I think they blew it out in the end, 33-17 or something like that. King Country did. Yeah, King Country did. So yeah, good win. And they won the... So when those two teams play, apparently, they play for the Maroon and Gold Cup. Oh, because they're both Maroon and Gold. Must be, yeah. Yeah, right. Yeah. So yeah, they King Country won it this year.
00:10:03
Speaker
They could have come up with a slightly more original name than that. Oh, that's what I was thinking, yeah. Yeah, there was actually a couple of funny things. Can Mango enter into that? Well, every time ah I see people wearing these juicies and I was like, oh, I should have to do a double take because it looks like a Mango Juicy. Yeah, can Hawks just dive over to a bit of union for the weekend? Surely, where we came from there. Yeah.
00:10:24
Speaker
But yeah, there was there was a couple of funny things that happened at the game.

Amusing Anecdotes and Personal Stories

00:10:28
Speaker
The curtain raiser for the ah Rams game was the King Country Trailblazers, the women's team. They played a Waikato Development 15. And when I got there, I always like to ask, like, oh, what's your what' the entrance entrance music that you want? And so I asked Josh, and he goes, oh, I'll ask them. He goes, oh, it's probably going to be some Shania Twain thing as a joke.
00:10:53
Speaker
And then he comes back and he goes, I got this old cuz, Shania Tane, man, I feel like a woman. And I'm like, nah, you're shitting me cuz, you're shitting me. He goes, nah, that's what they want. I was like, cuz, are you shitting me? Why does that what they want? He goes, no, that's what they want. Good song that. Yeah, Caitlyn Jenner was a big fan.
00:11:16
Speaker
So yeah, ah they got absolutely trounced. I feel bad for actually saying this score, but it was significant. Yep. Was it triple digits or? Almost. Almost. Yeah. um They did score once though. Trailblazers. So, good on them. Yeah. So, seeing Dog, seeing Bess, seeing Kevi in his form, his final form. Yeah. His multiple. His final form. Well, know your final form in your rugby aficionado, coach, anything, it's always a puffer vest.
00:11:52
Speaker
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. We have a Puffer Vest on. Oh, definitely. Yeah. Puffer Vest. I think he had a blue blue shirt and tan pants. Yeah. um Yeah. Okay. The best one. And I should have taken a photo of this. It was classic. Because they they all arranged. They got new vehicles in the rugby, in the union. So they had them lined up, all these trucks lined up at the end of the pitch. Kid's got a RAV4, I think. And that was parked up on on just on the embankment on the other side of the grandstand. um So near the road, so people could see the vehicle when it was kind of, you know, a good promotion for the union sort of thing. But then and I seen Kev sitting over there, leaning on a fence, middle of the day, or middle of the game, just on his phone. car Car behind him, I was like, man, it's got actually like a pretty good
00:12:44
Speaker
photo opportunity there but then we're just getting some business done now. Always working that plumber, always working. Yeah yeah so I'll just cut it in here just to get rid of that dead air space but I just finished the squash tournament last week. Squash tournament? Yeah went down to E-grade Nationals in New Plymouth. Took the week off work and managed to get a few games in, played a Against a team from Riversdale, which is down by Gore. And the guy I played, his name, they yeah they called him Peanut. So you can imagine what sort of character he was. and um So apparently he got on the piss pretty hard, ended up pissing the bed back at the hotel.
00:13:31
Speaker
And to remedy it, the next day, he just left the electric blanket on. So instead of a piss smelly room, he's got a hot piss smelly room. I was like, what the fuck? What a peanut. He's lucky he didn't have it on while he fucking pissed himself. Imagine going down like that, electrocuted by a pissy electric blanket. What a way to go. Yeah, yeah well, i'll imagine that at the old funeral. And this is why you should always turn your electric blanket off for a whole drink. That's in the eulogy are you? Put a whole another suspect them on let street and cry yeah but that broke puts a whole and nother perspective on don't drink and fry.
00:14:19
Speaker
Definitely. We've got the A-B's game playing in the background here, so apologies for the distraction. Was it a bit of a game last night? Did you guys watch it? Are you interested? Otherwise we could move on. Yeah, I think I watched a little bit, but I was pretty inebriated because we had Nathanas 21st last night.
00:14:40
Speaker
That past that Anton Leonard Brown made in All Blacks First Try was an absolute perler. Shit, it was a beauty. Cut out all on the fly and just right on the money. Yeah, it was good shit. Alright, so with us we got on today's schedule.
00:14:58
Speaker
um I don't want to go to poor form yet because I think we'll leave that. Was there some things that you wanted to kind of chat about miles around your bad parenting kind of situation? or I'm not sure if it's bad parenting, I think bad reaction to parenting, but a couple of weeks ago I was lying in lying in my bed with with my little with my little boy Hudson, my best buddy Huddy.
00:15:24
Speaker
And we're just lying there reading books and shit, because somehow I've got them to read books, which is great. I'm stoked there's with it. and um Nikita, get in the shower. Yep. And every time you got to get in the shower, he goes and does a pee. Sitting on the toilet for ages. I was like, I'm thinking 30 minutes. And then he starts crying. What are you crying for? It won't come out. It won't come out. And I was like, oh, there's fuck all I can do. You just got to chill, bros. You just got to chill. Give it a little. Give it a little.
00:15:55
Speaker
every now and then you know like like you know really from the belly you know just just every now and then you don't have to if i can get in there with the ripping and the tearing but just give it a little hit and then uh then just relax and um he continues to cry you go dad i need help look what sort of help am i going to give him coaching hold his hand breathe my contact yes shake maybe Maybe squeeze him like a roll of toothpaste. Put a toothbrush under him, I don't know, maybe it'll coax it out. But um yeah, I just walked him through it, and it was just too funny. I was like, nah, fuck, this is hilarious. And then um keep reading my book, looking at my phone, whatever that was. And then I noticed he flushes the toilet, goes for a shower, and I was all asking about it after. We're down in the lounge. Boy, how'd you go? Did you do a poo? Yep, done a poo.
00:16:50
Speaker
Oh, what happened? And he just has this cheeky ass grin on his face and I'm like, what are you smiling at? And he goes, oh, it just came out. And I said, why are you smiling? And he goes, I try to pull it out. but Whoa. He just grabbed some toilet paper and just tried to try to grab the knuckle that was sticking out. Grabbed the pork trotter and tried to pull it out. Now what happened? He goes, it broke.
00:17:14
Speaker
I just wish I walked past the door and seen him just hovering and just trying to pull this this alien resurrection out of him. I wonder to ah if that's what happened to Cave that time that he ended up with that nugget on the floor.
00:17:27
Speaker
Trying to bur manually handle it. but handle era Slipped out of the fingers. They don't bring that up in manual handling training now on a work site. And that's what I was going to say. That's why I needed coaching. like What are you doing putting your hand down into the toilet? no yeah Maybe he did need some sort of coaching. Well, he's creating content. That's what he's doing.
00:17:51
Speaker
je No, that's not bad parenting. I don't think that's bad parenting. Oh, I laughed at it pretty hard afterwards. To the point where it was a bad spot. It was a bad reaction. Good story for the old 21st. Yeah, I have to write that one down. Remember the time nearly you tried to drag a poo out of your arse? Right in front of his girlfriend.

Garage Troubles and Electrical Mishaps

00:18:14
Speaker
the I love how we can relate to any of the cousins and just hit them with a drive by on the run too. I wonder if that's what Cave done. Just drag them into it. It's as blue as exhaust. Well, it's still a mystery how that nugget ended up in bathroom there.
00:18:35
Speaker
Can we put that down as research for the next podcast? The research may get a private investigator onto it. Who's the closest Carl is at the moment? I'll just say who we're going to get. Someone who's got it in. Or maybe Richo could come back to the Southern Hemisphere. That'd be way too sus. Oh, who's that? Senor Dick Cheese. Senor Dick Cheese. I should go back to the last episode.
00:18:59
Speaker
um Yeah, I know. Is there anything else you wanted to discuss? I don't want to launch straight into the portfolio at all. Yeah. Oh, well, we were going to talk about there's been some updates. ah Ari, caerra Cal's garage. Yes. Yeah, the saga continues. um So obviously I actually didn't go around there last time I was here.
00:19:20
Speaker
So what did we talk about last time? You being the whole expert and the whole being drilled into the yeah front of the garage? All that went pretty smoothly but then she's had problems with the garage door itself tripping out and then couldn't get in there.
00:19:35
Speaker
um so She was still having issues. I was like, oh, I've got a mate that lives in Topol. He's a sparky as well. He was actually Uncle Pop's apprentice back in the day. Oh, OK. So I was like, oh, can you just go around there? I think they'll have Uncle Pop might have just put one neutral in the wrong place, you know? Oh, yeah, we've got nothing on. It was like a Friday. I'll just go have a look. Sweet ass cruise around there. He's like, oh, boy, brings me up.
00:20:03
Speaker
I sent you a picture. I was like, looking at it, I was like, oh no, there's quite a few things wrong here.
00:20:13
Speaker
Nothing unsafe. or just I was preface it by saying nothing nothing was unsafe, but a few wires were put in the wrong place and it's probably a good two, three hour job to actually sort it out now. oh right so um Yeah, um I guess that's poor form for Uncle Pop there. Here we go. We're launching into it. Poor form for Uncle Pop there. I thought, you know, it's been a while since he's been on the tools, to be fair, and he hasn't done a lot of that new style of wiring. So I thought oh I'll show Dog the picture and see if he picks up what was wrong.
00:20:45
Speaker
and he didn't pick up what was wrong. So we can let Uncle Pop off there. Okay. Yeah. Well, to be, to add to that as well, he was, you know, a week away from going on holiday. yeah So he was probably just like, i I just need to get this done. Just get it in there. And then, yeah. So anyway, I'm sure we'll, we'll get a clarification or response yeah from Michael Pop when he gets back in a couple of weeks. I suppose since we're doing this in his house to just let him off the I think it needs to be brought to his attention at least. So we don't get many over the old man so this is this is one that we can.
00:21:26
Speaker
He's hit this one over par. Double buggy, this one.
00:21:34
Speaker
i work our You had some poor form as well, Mitch?

Workplace Humour and Mishaps

00:21:41
Speaker
Well, I had a number of them. I do. Where do I start, bro? Where do I start? You tell us, bro. You tell us. As some of you may know, just come off a bit of a shutdown here in Gladie, and I was running the night shift.
00:21:55
Speaker
So we get about four weeks deep into to the shutdown. We have a job come up. So sweet as we'll go for smoke out. We have about half an hour smoke out from 10 to 10 30. And then we put our shit together and shot back into the plant, go and have a look at this mod. So we're all standing there. We're sussing it out. Yep. We'll go and get this, this and this. We'll knock it over. So we proceed to do that. You know, four hours later,
00:22:22
Speaker
ah at time for another smoke go. So we all head back to the crib room and one of the boys come up to me and he goes, oh have you seen Shay? I said, well what do you mean? And I bring this up because he's a pain, um P-A-Y-N-E originating from Munga Kenil, just in relative to old weasel pain. And I said, nah, fucking, actually come to think of it, bro. No, I haven't. I said, go and have a look in that fucking van.
00:22:53
Speaker
Sure enough bro, the bro was crashed out and in the van. No one had picked up on it and that's why I bring it into a poor form segment because as a supervisor miles can probably tell you do need to have you know some sort of awareness of where your blokes are. Finger on the pulse. Yeah. And um yeah, for four hours out of the 12 of us, no one noticed that he was missing. Oh Well, how long was he asleep for? Four hours. But like from the moment he's got there or he just kind of like mid shift, went in, jumped in the van. From that from that first smoko to second smoko. Oh shit. Four hour gap that no one actually picked up that he was missing until we got back to the crib room.
00:23:34
Speaker
Holy shit. yeah that sounds like Fuck, you know, like in that sort of game, you could think shit, man, what if someone sort of like fell off the scaffold? You didn't know that fucking cocked it on the ground somewhere and they just laying there for four hours. Luckily enough, he was laying in the band. That's almost good form from him getting away with that. You know, he's he's put a real test to you fellas by but doing that, like you say. um You might need to bring in the buddy system.
00:24:06
Speaker
we We did, after the very next pre-start, we just spoke about, yep, mates looking after mates, bloody system and that. But um if it was a test, if he was testing us, so it came at a costly um decision for him as we do, you know, poor form of any poor form of any kind that's going to occur in a box. um If it's really bad poor form, then it's a black box. um So yeah, he ended up coming to the party with two black boxes. So he paid for his sins. What were their names?
00:24:35
Speaker
i Jack and Daniel. yeah well black sortter know the gate swung that way So that brings me into my second part of the poor form. So I don't really, I've been pretty slack and I haven't really been posting a lot of shit on our cuz chat page. And I think the most recent one I've done is when I fixed out our washing machine.
00:25:02
Speaker
um was a wall ago I've noticed and I've pulled the washing out that and aglet you know the little end of the drawstring on your pants was missing and then proceeded to use the washing machine again and it just wasn't pumping water out, that all the water was just staying in the the washing machine.
00:25:24
Speaker
So it took a while to drain all the water out to try and figure out what the fuck's going on. And then I sort of put it two and two together and thought, okay, the impeller must be impeded. It's not fucking letting the water drain out. So I've turned it over, gone underneath it, found where the housing was and you know turned it, pulled it out. Sure enough, the aglet dropped out. Sweet, I've nailed it. Put it back in, click.
00:25:48
Speaker
put all the hoses back together, go and turn it on. Fuck, it's still draining water. All over the laundry floor, not ideal. So fuck around with it. So we're not draining water to just draining water on the floor or? The leaking, yeah. Yeah, right.
00:26:03
Speaker
Turns out that in my aggravated state, I had cracked the housing, and I didn't put that up on the cuzchat page. Cuz it actually and actually cost me $800 a new f**king motion machine. For a f**king plastic aggravation? Yes. So yeah ah that was f**king terrible. That's why we don't fix appliances anymore. No.
00:26:31
Speaker
Whoops, the old band doing enough, you know, thought that might have trickled down into me, but no. But then ah I'd imagine a lot of, like, if you check those those pants, they might have had a warning on them about certain types of washing machines or things like that. You know, so a lot of clothes say, don't do not tumble dry. answer about that Yeah.
00:26:54
Speaker
What got me is that the little holes, you know, they're only just big enough for that thing to go through and rip off. So how it got in there, you know, it's a miracle that it fucking found its way down into that to begin with.
00:27:09
Speaker
um but yeah having a yeah I wasn't going to put that on the page, put myself, leave myself. message that you today i can Don't beat yourself up so much i because like you said, um some of your old man's you know teachings should have trickled down to you. But as we've discussed already, he's under fire at the moment. So you could probably push that blame back on him. We've let him off a couple of times, but we can get back get back on the gas, I think. yeah we'll put an and We'll put another note there. But also, just a bit of a shout out to Mitch, Aglet, Impelo, and Impeded all good words that I never thought I'd hear you say. And I've learned what Eglit means. No, this is good on you mate. Information on it. Thanks, bro. Good assonance there as well. Oh, I'll write that one down. Assala. Assonance. Repeated vowel sounds. i'll um ah I'll put a hold on him any further shout outs till the end of this next ball form, please go these. No, take them now because... yeah I've lost something near and dear to me.
00:28:16
Speaker
It's something I've struggled with over the last couple of years. And I bet you can all take a guess of this thing that I've lost.

Legal Responsibilities and Driving Tales

00:28:23
Speaker
li
00:28:29
Speaker
Indeed. I'm again without a license for six months again. And
00:28:43
Speaker
one yeah What's the word? You know, we talk about how poor form travels, and this has been following me for quite a while, so I'll give you the story. We shot up to Rocky one day for a job, the last couple of lifts on this job to pull it all down, get it packed up, strapped up, bring it back to Gladdy. So in the morning I elected, oh, we'll just take the van, be easier.
00:29:07
Speaker
So we all piled in the van, shot up to Rocky, stripped this job. At the end of the job, the foreman showed up with about four boxes of beers. Shout out for the boys. You know, so pull them all out. Boys start having a few beers. I'm on the forklift, moving up and down, getting all the shit off. They go, fuck it, I'll drive home. I won't have a drink. All good. So um we jump in the van, send it off. Again, I'm not drinking.
00:29:35
Speaker
We get about an hour out of Rocky to a place called Mount Larkham, and you sort of turn left at Mount Larkham to come and into Gladdy. As we're turning left, there's a RBT on the side of the rope. All good, no worries. So we'll sit to the boys' feet. I can sit back, we've got to pull over, RBT. So all the boys sit back straight away. We pull over, copper pokes his head in the in the window, looks to his left.
00:30:00
Speaker
And young fella behind me, 17 years old, um sort of just freshly out of school. We'd give him a couple of beers because he'd done quite well that day. Was sitting there without his seatbelt on. And the cop looked at him and goes, hey, why haven't you got your seatbelt on? He was a stunned mullet, but he just sort of sitting there a little bit pissed. Didn't know what to do. I looked at him and said, bro, you fucking answer the policeman. Didn't answer him. Took him out for a chat and said, oh, well, he's probably going to end up with a fucking fine here.
00:30:31
Speaker
Gets back in the car and then the cobbler goes, oh, Mr Hemmer, I need to have a chat to you now. And he pulls me out of the car bar and says to me, as you came around that corner there, I could see that boy sort of moving around, suggested that he didn't have a seat belt on. I can only assume other people in the van were doing the same thing. He goes, I'm not going to give him a fine today because you know I feel that there should be more people in that van getting a fine. But as for you, as the driver, it's your responsibility. Therefore, here's a $1,200 fine and that's four points off your...
00:31:04
Speaker
What a wanker! I think someone can trade on as a driver, and they learn what the cunt in the bag are doing. It's there, they should have got fined. The passengers. Yeah, right. Yeah, and I sort of thought, you know, if if it was my young fella, like my 10-year-old or my 12-year-old, I thought, you know, fair enough. You know, I probably should have been all over that, but a fucking 17-year-old kid with his licence,
00:31:31
Speaker
um Who fucking knows better? Yeah, oh a bit of a fucking shit, shit go, but because of my good behavior, I probably would have been over my good behavior in January and would have had all my points back, life would have been fucking primo. Now I don't have a license till the 3rd of March. So I'm having to get rides to and from work with one of the other boys. Yeah man, six months.
00:31:54
Speaker
What is the law? um Because in New Zealand, um the law is if you're over 14 years of age, it's completely your responsibility to put your own seatbelt on. um Because if he's gone outside the law and making that call, you should realistically be able to appeal that sort of thing. I don't know. You probably don't want to go down this track of fucking going against the police. But in my opinion, that's injustice.
00:32:18
Speaker
Yeah, he's been a dick. Yeah, he's got a name for himself. Apparently, he's got a Facebook page dedicated to how much of a dick this particular policeman is. Oh, there you go. Constable Hibbert. Yeah, bit of a shit go.
00:32:34
Speaker
um But yeah, told that boy's father when I got back to the yard what had happened. ah He had proceeded to tell him that he will be paying that fine. Which of course made him start to cry. He was a bit emotional, had a gut full of beer and spewed it all over his father's dash. You should have given him one of these ones. I'm a fucking mad cunt. I'm a fucking kill ya'll.
00:33:05
Speaker
Well, he did, he tried to say sorry and that was Damien don't even fucking talk to me bro. But the whole trip over half an hour drive man, boys were silent. Yeah. Like in New Zealand, even if you're not wearing a seatbelt, it's a 150 dollar fine. And I don't even think you get demerits. Really? Yeah, well, this was $1,209. Jesus. Poor boy has to... That is over the top.
00:33:30
Speaker
You're not really endangering other people, though, if you don't have your belt on. You're endangering yourself. Yeah. So it should but should be a lot less, but yeah, that's fucking crazy. Of course, this cop had fucking many stories to tell, and he was saying, oh, I used to be a ah fireman, and the amount of people that I've pulled out of cars that were sitting in the back seat that didn't have their the seat belt on, and they're going flying into the dash, and you know, hurt the people that they're flown into. Yeah, that's his problem. And I was just like, by the end, I just went,
00:33:59
Speaker
yeah that but That doesn't mean you get to write the law yourself. As a police officer, they they like to hide behind, oh, I'm just doing my job, I'm just doing the law, and then you can't sit when I come in and... I don't know, that doesn't sound like it's legit. Yeah, that's a hard deal. um I thought I was doing the right thing, you know, driving Toba with a whole bunch of pussies in the back of the van. And it's a van, too. You know, 12-seater van. I can't see everything that's going on in the back there.
00:34:28
Speaker
um Well, you know, which was my argument. You know, I'm trying to focus on what's in front of me, not what's by me. um But yeah, he didn't want to take any of it, bro. He was a bit of a dick. So yeah, cop that one on the chin. I lost that mid-shut. September the 3rd, I lost it. March the 3rd, I'll get it back.
00:34:47
Speaker
Yeah, I'm just reading this here. Penalties start from $387 in three demerit points and double demerit supply. Moreover, passengers aged over 16 can face fines for not wearing seat belts as well as for any instance of protruding body parts outside the vehicle during travel. That might be worth a call. Can you say that one? I mean... But they make it hard for you to challenge it. Yeah.
00:35:13
Speaker
Yeah, it's a whole process. that's and That's the bureaucracy you got to go through. But I'll tell you what, it's not as much of a process as going six months without a license. I don't think about it, you know, whether it's worth fighting it. It might have been, had I not had the record that I do have, they might have just look be to said, ah no. That should be relevant, though, your record in that in that scenario, in my opinion.
00:35:37
Speaker
um so Queensland. yeah Queensland is a bit of a nanny state though, aye? 100%. Especially up north, you know, the further up north you get, the more chance you're going to find somebody with two heads. So he might have known the head that they kept on that one. Probably other one. yeah oh Here we go. A driver may be fine for each unrestrained or incorrectly restrained passenger in the vehicle.
00:36:06
Speaker
no That's a joke. Is that here as well, or was that Queensland? No, here it's over 14 and that's up to you to put your seatbelt on. The driver don't get a phone unless it's a kid under 14 in New Zealand. Just I have to start making these. I don't know if he put the belts on in the back of my van then.
00:36:28
Speaker
I'd say, hard out, so yeah. Oh no, the supplies of drivers not correct, as well as drivers failing to ensure passengers under 16 are correctly wearing a seatbelt. No, was it easy they're all over 16. It even specifies in the file driver a passenger over 17 years of age, unrestrained. Yeah. He's done the old, like an Uno switchcard bow and switched it to you instead of the young fella.
00:36:55
Speaker
Yeah, well, as we came round the corner, we said, mate, sit back, put your belt on. And there was, you know, you shouldn't have to say it, but yeah, as we came round the corner, mate, sit back, put your belt on. I just sat back, bones literally was all good. ah Yeah, fucking. But yeah, like I said, Porfalo had the empty his bank account and sell his PS5. And empty his stomach as well. All over his dad's dash.
00:37:23
Speaker
He rang me up, he was all... I'm pretty sure the scaffolding boys have got a bit of a bad rep for getting young fellas into trouble. Was he wearing a seatbelt when he spewed up in his old man's truck?
00:37:35
Speaker
ah So he wasn't, he probably could have got it out the window. Yeah. But, no, his old man rang me up about five minutes after we left the yard to say that they were at the car wash and he was in there.
00:37:50
Speaker
cleaning it up whilst crying at the same time. all your man sort of moment for the young fellow So you might have actually overtaken me in disqualification time now, Mitch, what are you at? How many months in total? ah and at least We work this out, don't we? At least 24 by the end of this plus a year with the with the interlock, or 18 months actually I had the interlock for. I'm going to have to go back to, I'm pretty sure it's that interlock episode that we calculate who's got the, what hours you've got in terms of. Yeah, I've had a total disqualification time of three years.
00:38:34
Speaker
way to
00:38:38
Speaker
What a brag. I think you were leading at that point, but I don't know if that's, you've caught up now, bitch. I'll have to come back. I'll have to come back with, with the yeah, a lot of time. I suggest you don't. You have to do a whole chart, mate. Total time. Time left to go.
00:38:58
Speaker
I reckon your fines will be up over mine now after $1200 bucks though. Fuck, that's many bleep. It is, but I thought I'd palm that one off. When I got done my first my first major infringement when I was drink driving, I got charged with drink driving and dangerous driving. I only got fined a grand. Yeah, right. Yeah, that seems a lot more hardcore. Yeah, like that's, yeah, that is a lot more hardcore, you know, than your dude in the back, young fella, not wearing a seatbelt. Yeah, this was back in 2007.
00:39:25
Speaker
I think um ah that's preco using your phone and Aussie too is over $1,000 if you get caught on your phone. yeah yeah Fuck I got a bad habit of doing that. Yeah, I actually got led off one. I was so close to losing my license again too much because I was so like out of demerit points. Copper pulled me up, saw me on the phone and he was like, I saw you on there and I was like, yeah. I was like, this is going to run me out of demerit points.
00:39:52
Speaker
He's like, oh, well, you're just going to have to get a work license. I was like, oh, I don't think they'll give me an A. I'm on one. I was like, man, I'd really appreciate it if you could just give me a warning on this one.
00:40:05
Speaker
<unk>s oh He'd just say, oh, then he fucking let me off. I was like, you need any ceiling? The real point's actually clear. The next month, they clear. So I was like, within a month of them coming clean and it would have been fine. But he was like, yeah, I'll send you a warning in the mail. Yeah. So he got let off there. It's not often that happens. You should ask him for a warning, Mitch. Yeah. I told him that. I told him, bro, I can't fucking have four points. I don't have four points to give me. Yeah. Too bad. How sad. Are you on one point?
00:40:40
Speaker
um Well, when you're on good behaviour, you have four. So I would have lost it anyway, but a month into driving, I got pulled over speeding. So I lost one. I was down three. And then, yeah, that four just took me out over the edge. I think I've changed my tune. I think we need i need to think we need to get you off the roads. But according to this, he could have given you three. What's the story there? No, it was four. Oh, OK.
00:41:10
Speaker
Oh no, they're they're fucking assholes. Plus, good behaviour, anything you do, you you get stubbled. Oh right. Oh right. Fuck man, they were harsh over there. Geez. Yeah. Last five minutes, I'll tell ya. Oh yeah, so... They're stacking buffs there.
00:41:28
Speaker
That's me. That's my poor form hopefully for for the rest of the year. Should have asked him if he needed any scaffolding done or anything like that, you know? I'm wondering what Jordan offered him. I'm thinking, you know, his elaborate status at Sin City must have got it right. You should have just asked him, have you been following, you know, the Diddy episodes? Because I've got somebody who's free and he's already half inebriated. You can Diddy him.
00:41:53
Speaker
Could have offered him some scaffolding. All right, scaffolding pole to the back of the head. Yes. Had plenty of it. Yeah. The funny thing was that we not long pulled over at the Raglan pub.
00:42:07
Speaker
and the boys had a few schooners there. ah So we left first and there was another ute behind me, plus our truck driving behind us. It all had a few beers. So they just carried on straight when we rang the boat. RBT at Mount Larkham go straight. So they headed straight through to Calliope. Had we gone first, they probably would have lost their license. I would have been sweet.
00:42:34
Speaker
So that's what it took to fall for them as well. Oh, at least we have a number of people to pick you up. I do. To take you to work now. I do, bro. So the bloke who's actually got my ute comes and picks me up in the mornings. Josh me up in the Arlo's. That was the new ute too, eh? Yes, bro. Yeah. Yeah. You'd only had it a few months, too, and you get it like this year? Yeah, it's got 28,000 K's on it, so.
00:43:04
Speaker
yeah yeah How old's your oldest son? He's actually 13 and 15 turned 11 yesterday. Oh, 13 I think, um so he doesn't have any demerit points yet. Nothing to lose really. I bet you were driving when you were 13.
00:43:25
Speaker
Yes. Yes. So you should know better. Joe's doe's been fully driving around since he was 13 as well. Yeah, but he looks 20 when he was nine. and just say that he's carrying and i'll be like ah yeah Oh, thanks CEO. GM, GM, GM. He actually named dropped me to get to the police officer.
00:43:49
Speaker
Who did? Joe. um Because when he got pulled over, you know, and he was in trouble, and he had the police officer come over to his house that I've had a history with, and she was asking them different questions. And then he's like, oh, yeah, I know. You know, he sort of consequences if you're driving around, you know, especially if you're driving under the influence of alcohol and things like that. And he's like, yeah, I sort of know my my uncle. he's um He's had to have an interlochen as you, you know? um And then he looks at her and goes, do you know my uncle much? Was that a pickle?
00:44:25
Speaker
yeah
00:44:29
Speaker
Yeah.

Life Lessons and Measurement Debates

00:44:30
Speaker
Oh, crack up, bro. Yup. Then she comes into work because she looks after the naughty kids. Yup. All right, then. Go.
00:44:46
Speaker
That's fucking hard luck, Mitch, although I'll give that to you. Yeah, that's rough. Pore form. Yeah, I actually had a bit of pore form yesterday during the morning, the lawns. You guys probably didn't get to pick it up because I'm having problems with the old audio there. Yeah, there was no audio, so I skipped through most of those. Yeah, so my lawn's got a bit out of control um once again. The old lawn chat's taking the dive. But I got out there, and I bought a lawnmower off the Kazi Shawn.
00:45:16
Speaker
Kazzy Korn. Oh, okay. Yeah, but be yard man. I don't know why you're calling it a crack head sale. I was like, oh, yeah. He's like, oh, I just need a bit of money to get Peds car going. In fact, I bought this lawnmower. It's a good deal. It's a good deal. And it's not a bad mower, slightly better than the ride on that I had. But I was like, it just needs a new spark plug and a new battery. So I started the process yesterday morning, which involved sort of going down, getting a spark plug from Repco and a new battery, shooting home, then moving the van, pumping up, backing the truck up, pumping the back tyre up so I could then hitch on to the caravan, pull that out of the way.
00:46:05
Speaker
so that I could then um take the ride on to the back lawn, move all the dog shits, then weed eat round the outside and then begin the process of the mowing. Good day mate. Yeah, yeah. So that was all that was before the lawns even started getting cut. um So turn the old ride on over. Sweet, you fucking fired up. Beauty. Only fucking one more thing to test. Went to drop the blades.
00:46:32
Speaker
Fucking stalled. Started up again, went to drop the blades. Stalled. Blades are completely seized. So it's not spinning at all? yeah Nah, nah. I mean, it looked under there, it's pretty corroded. And the belt was pretty fucked too, actually. So poor form for me not actually cheating. The one thing that a lawnmower is not known for? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's pretty useless without the blades.
00:47:00
Speaker
kelly So, with those learnings, was it still a good deal? ah Yeah, I think so. I picked it up for a grand. Is it repairable? Yeah, it's definitely repairable. How much is the battery? 200 bucks. Ooh, that's 1200. For a lawnmower, that doesn't work. Yeah, yeah.
00:47:18
Speaker
Yeah, and I've got another lawnmower that doesn't work there too. I've got two lawnmowers, both with issues down at the blade end. Start calling you Digby Steiner.
00:47:29
Speaker
yeah he's goingnna Just have like heaps of lawnmowers just parked out on the front of his yard soon. Just lined up with half missing parts. I've just created another job for myself. yeah as do and So then there was about fucking 20-year-old catchers full out of the push mower after that.
00:47:47
Speaker
you yeah that's a big ya Disappointing when you've done all that shit beforehand and you didn't even have to.
00:47:55
Speaker
like for like The trickling from Mitch's dad, did you get those learnings from the trickling from your father? Could you pass the blame onto him as what were what I'm actually getting at?
00:48:08
Speaker
I remember the old man having three more he's parked on his lawn. What are your tricklings, bro?
00:48:21
Speaker
Well, there's one thing I don't do and it's Sleep with many women. Well, I have one. So I've got some learnings from that. Have illegitimate children. I've got some learnings from that. But there's there there as many, many more learnings. See, I've learnt from the trickles, you know? Yes, they're learnings. Yeah. Yeah, I would always go to the old man's shed and just um use his tools and then just leave them out. And i fuck you, they would wind him up. Yeah, very meticulous.
00:48:57
Speaker
Yeah, well, not particularly meticulous, but doesn't like us so nobody really likes their tools getting left out. No, no.
00:49:05
Speaker
Always Karen calls them some bad boys. I don't know why this popped in my head, but I remember I'm telling Daddy when he got his first toolbox and he's like, yeah, and I've got some screwdrivers and then some of these bad boys to really know what they were called.
00:49:27
Speaker
I can't go wrong with a good toolkit.
00:49:32
Speaker
I was actually thinking the other day, a good question, you know? We all, well, I don't really, I'm not a huge fan of the old imperial measurements. But, were we talking about that on the outside? Yeah, I think we were. You were talking about the grooves, apart from temperature. Yeah, the old Fahrenheit. Temperature, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you have a favorite imperial measurement, the models?
00:49:53
Speaker
um see I'm quite used to the Imperial measurement because my career in working in the vehicle industry for the past 16 years or whatever, um I've always worked on American trucks and European trucks. So I can easily easily switch between. You can give me a number. and i'll ah It's actually been a while since I've been on the tools now.
00:50:17
Speaker
I can easily see over there. 23.64. What's that? 23.64. No idea. I reckon that's up to around... so That's higher than a... That's not even a fraction. 23.64. So I reckon that's like 11.1 mil or something. Yeah, it's probably pretty close. Or maybe like 10.9 or some shit like that. Yeah, I'm pretty sure they make drills in that size.
00:50:47
Speaker
But I think it is around 10, 11 mil. For me, it's probably got to be height or you know distance at least. Your foot. Feet, yeah. yeah um I don't know, it's just to make sense, I guess we've always measured height in feet, not meters. Yeah, and dick length too, you don't often get that in centimetres. Yes, feet, yes. Sometimes mine achieve centimetres, and other times it just sits in millimetres. It's actually just fun and nice, great mysteries. Yeah, I've got ah i've got an adult apprentice, Deepak, Deepak Mancou.
00:51:22
Speaker
um He's an Indian fellow. I love his name because it he sounds like he could be a Pokémon and a DJ. You know, like DJ Mancou. Or he could be like Mancou, the Earth type Pokémon. He could do those. But he's also... Does sound like a Pokémon attack. Mancou! Yeah, that's right. He could do it.
00:51:45
Speaker
And um when he he evolves, he evolves into a boilermaker because he's a boilermaker apprentice. But um yeah he was telling us a thing what he was doing. it tyfe What are you doing? He goes, oh, we have to cut these and this and this, and it had to be down to the millimeter. And if it was one mm out, did he just refer to it as millimeters and something else as mm's? Does he know the difference? So the measurement just become MMs now. So everything is in MMs if it's a 26 meter, two trailers in a truck set up, ah we measure it in MMs now. That's actually good. That's quick it's quicker than saying millimeters. Yeah, I suppose so. I think i think that the the mouth acrobatics you have to do to say MMs is the same as millimeters though. Yeah, probably.
00:52:34
Speaker
yeah That was That would have been weird. Actually, speaking of nicknames, I got a fucking new nickname the other day. I thought it was hilarious. Not too stoked about it, but I thought it was hilarious. We have two ways at work, and me and my supervisor, he's black as, I'm white as, so I will call him up, copy, you know, fucking Forest actually my nickname for Whitaker's lips, or my kuro millimeter. copy I thought you were going to Buster say mouth acrobatics. Rhimes before he got famous, or, you know, fucking Whippy Goldberg's lips, or the back of Forest Whitaker's neck.
00:53:11
Speaker
I found all these color-based fucking nicknames and he got me a good one the other day, because I sit in an office, so everyone hears our conversations, and he goes, copy Miggaloo, Miggaloo. And people who don't know, Miggaloo is the Aboriginal albino whale that was going up and down the coast for many years. I wonder about that name. Everybody lost today, man. And so that's become my fucking name.
00:53:40
Speaker
but Not too stoked, but at the same time, I was like, that's fucking impressive. That's good. That's good. That's when you know someone cares. It's outside the box. He's gone home and looked into that. Yeah, yeah or sweet delay he looked today was like wife yeah ro me a miles yeah so he's and looked into that. Yeah, he's gone home and looked into that. Yeah, he's gone home and looked into i butterby not sure
00:54:14
Speaker
yeah i shouldn't be giving a fucking classic You put anything into AI these days i's put the air I love two ways though two ways of fucking heaps of fun. yeah Yeah, they We use the met and the rugby in there, but I gotta say it's just mostly just fucking grubby talk between Josh and Keith Middlemas Do you get into using the old you know ten for what's what's your 20?
00:54:40
Speaker
Oh it's more just over, copy, those sort of basics. They do use them because it is handy. 10.9, that's the, sorry I didn't get that. Oh really? Yeah, sorry I didn't hear that repeat. 10.9. No, not not that intricate. Oh yeah. The truckies use the old candy car term. Any candy cars? You know like fucking cop cars because they're all different colours. Yeah, that was undercover ones.
00:55:05
Speaker
There's a lot of gayness on the Australian Trucking Radio, like a lot of it. and like It's probably the open form for Grindr. They get right into it. Yo, truck stops. Yeah. Well, they got the Sleepy Cab right there on a lot of them. Not a lot of sleeping. Whole lot of Cabot. But a Cabot worked though.
00:55:29
Speaker
um what i shit i dont I don't know, where do we get to? Poreform? Did you have a Poreform story?

Customer Service Frustrations

00:55:39
Speaker
I've got a bit of a fucking... It's more of a red flag story. um ah but I suppose it's Poreform myself because I didn't pick up the red flags.
00:55:47
Speaker
um In my life i um I feel I'm pretty good at picking up the red flags and steering clear of certain people, certain situations so I can keep on with my goals or whatnot. But um I failed to see one the other day when I go to pick my hire car up and I get there an hour early and they're still washing it and stuff which is awesome. Sweet, that's all good. And I sit there.
00:56:09
Speaker
and um And then it comes out. It's got a flat tyre. I'm like, oh, okay. And then they couldn't find the key. And I was tyre's flat. Oh, is it? I'll go sort it out. And he comes back and he just pumped it up. And I knew in my head through past experiences that But the air come out of that somehow. It doesn't just come out. And I thought, it's a slow leak, fuck it. I'll just fill it up when I get to fuckamaru, which ended up being stupid because apparently the compressor, they don't turn it on on weekends, the dumbass. Typical fuckamaru. But then I got down there and then the car didn't start anyway.
00:56:45
Speaker
so on the front of Nat's lawn there is a hire car that just doesn't work and I probably spent about four hours yesterday trying to get somebody to answer my AA calls and answer my thing and it wasn't until I posted on their Facebook page saying that I was I've been sleeping in the car because I couldn't get my suggestion that they actually acted on it. That's the way straight to the socials bro.
00:57:09
Speaker
But actually I'm still waiting for a phone call today and I haven't got it. So there's there's a car sitting on Nat's lawn at the moment and if anybody wants to tow it, the keys are in it. um But yeah, never again snap rentals, they can get fucked because when I asked them what I could do, I said, I've been on to AA, they haven't twice now.
00:57:28
Speaker
ah They haven't come back to me, they haven't done anything. It's been five hours, they said they'd be half an hour, has like an automated message, half an hour. It's been five hours, still nothing. And the lady suggested, um well, you could just get a tow truck and get it towed back to Auckland. I was, fuck you. I paid for the full insurance, full upfront, everything. And her suggestion was to get, for me to tow it back to Auckland.
00:57:57
Speaker
<unk> not your problem at that point no that's an issue not an is me I just want fucking throat punch um but um believe I've said this before too, the customer service in New Zealand is trash, absolute trash. We have this perception of being you know friendly Kiwis. We might be friendly, but unless we're being you know in a position of actual customer service and they don't seem to give a fuck. No. In the position I am at work, as a manager, I often have to sort out these issues. And straight away, I would have um i would had somebody there to tow the vehicle, and I would have got somebody else to pick up another hire car. I don't give a fuck what car it is. Get him a car, drive it to Fakamaru, get him an Uber, come back to Topor, come back to Hamilton, or wherever.
00:58:43
Speaker
Just whack it on the back of the tow truck and drive that down there and take the other one back. Yeah. Just make the fucking thing happen. It doesn't cost that much money. lot A lot of good things for that, bro. You know, when people fuck you around, you'd ask them, how long did it take Neil Armstrong to get from Cape Canaveral to the moon? Their reply for that is three days. If you can get a man on the moon in three days, certainly they can get you a fucking rental car in that amount of time. That's very true.
00:59:15
Speaker
Three days, yep. Well, what do they call it? Let's give them a poor form. or No, maybe we shouldn't mention their name. Oh, here it he already has. Snaprentals. Snaprentals. What stupid name, anyway.
00:59:28
Speaker
Yeah, that's going to cost them more than a tow truck as they, as a bad mouthing on this. pop Yes. so The reach that this podcast has massive podcast, it'd be at least 23 people that would be absolutely on the limit. That's right. Do a recap next week too, just to get those 23, get the back right. And the yeah this goes to our anti-sponsor snap rental because we'll never use you again.
00:59:54
Speaker
And some companies we will never use. But give them a shout out. And now King Country won't use you either. King Country Rugby won't use snap rentals. No, they won't be using snap rentals.
01:00:08
Speaker
Not so so long as Maddie's volunteering there. yet No, not as long as I have a say. long as i Not as long as I have a microphone that is broadcasting to a whole bunch of people. It makes King Country game, mate. And please, all of you refrain from using Snapchat. I do you have to shout out the sponsors for the game, too. so Oh, Mitch doesn't have a license, so he won't be using the mother. Even when I have a license, I won't be using them. It was boycott, boycott, boycott. Yeah, both of them. Both of them on their half. On their half anyway. I must say though, my New Zealand driver's license is fucking immaculate. Very clean. I wish she was there. Can you just use that then?
01:00:54
Speaker
Unfortunately not. Surely you can use it back here, though. I can use it back there, yeah. Absolutely. Six month holiday, bro. Go teach some young fellas to build some scaffold. Yeah, some shuts down here.
01:01:14
Speaker
All right. Well, I think we're kind of wrapping things up here. weve we've run out of topics, I think, unless anyone else has got stuff to talk about. um Apparently, it was some sort of challenge that was going to be laid down towards the end of this podcast. So, who wants to talk about that? Because I have no idea what it is about.
01:01:35
Speaker
um so something that ah um Me and Jordan caught up at Natanas 21st, so I was like, good fucking party,

Creative Rugby Announcements

01:01:44
Speaker
actually. Good fucking party. A lot of hungies, a lot of music, a lot of people wearing clothes probably not appropriate for the weather. yeah And um just looking at them made me cold and slightly ashamed. But we'll move on. um But during that discussion, we we thought,
01:02:01
Speaker
We had a bit of a memory of Scotty J. Stevenson and some of the challenges he was laid down. And now that we've got Matty in a position that he can talk directly to the public, maybe slotting in a word. Every home game. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. Yeah. But Jordan came up with a great word, didn't you? What's the word of the word of the week? Uh, shelve it. Yeah, shelve it.
01:02:29
Speaker
Is there any context to go along with that? No, you've got to put the context in. I put the context in, okay. You could also try and get in. I reckon another good one to get in there would be a, you know... Mostly me. That tech will put him in Ward 4. Sorry. We were actually talking about that the other day.
01:02:48
Speaker
he Had he had any opportunities to drop any journal on the sayings? There was a couple of opportunities yesterday. There's a couple of yellow cards. so some Some late tackles, body checks. because of thatmented mow there That's a huge carry on. That'll put him in Ward 4. I hope not Bill. That's the maternity ward.
01:03:16
Speaker
They're like cattle trucks in this hunting yard. Couple Sherman tanks rolling up the field there. I should have, buddy. I've got this loaded in the roadcast. I should have dropped this one in here. Me, oh my, I haven't enjoyed that. Yes, boy.
01:03:36
Speaker
No, it's good fun. Yeah, challenge accepted, kuzzies. I will definitely try that. Next one I'm doing I think is around the 40th of October. I think. So they they're in the position now where they can make the semis for the Lahore Cup, which is in the rankings teams from five below, rank five below. So they're at five at the moment with a couple of games to play, but they might get a home semi. And then if they win that, then they're in the final for the Lahore Cup.
01:04:08
Speaker
yeah so which is apparently about where they sit in terms of their performances in the middle of the table. So yeah, I've got a couple of opportunities to to chuck it in there. If our listeners have any words they think god would be good to slot into a couple of games over the old ground announcing, let me know. The email address is kazchatpodcast.gmail dot.com.
