the best that ever and we only even that

she never gave us the recipe which were
very upset about ECG was really quickly

another memory that I've got is when we
were naughty when Annie and I were
naughty yeah our mom used to give us
television bang Oh huge yeah that was
the worst and they just used to say well
I don't care anyway and she go okay well
that's another day that is it yes well I
don't care about that either right well
that's another show no no no rule I used
to hate that oh my god so yeah so Tokyo
Japan so you've done something naughty
and then mum would say right no
television for one day and as only said
suddenly if you said I don't care then
you have two days yeah and it would grow
and it would just be awful yeah and the
thing is nowadays television ban I mean
my kids don't even really watch TV yeah
you know it would have to be an iPad and
I which would be what they would hate
that they would hate when I program some
kind of iceberg yeah but yeah TV they'd
be like seriously whatever yeah okay
that was awful that was the work and
then you know there was at one time that
you and dad was telling love you and he
said Thomas
come down the stairs and you got
yourself dressed up fully and a night to
get your wooden floor descended the
stairs to take on dad and you made him
laugh so much but he forgot what he was
okay but I was really serious I was like

maybe that's what made it so cute you
read about Falls but we're going in here
yeah
so quiet here easy to miss not like in
London when it's really noisy so quiet I
love it
one day we'll get you out here sure
we're away from London come join us in
the bed I could live in the countryside
yeah very bad day for a day then I
talked about to London yeah so do you

in Broadstairs I do I do
yeah six weeks yeah pack our bags that
starts with summer get on the train from
Victoria and travel down took a two
hours because a slow Church of train in
those days chug chug train train English
Darren yeah
chug chug I guess it means like it's a
very slow train right yeah chugged along
the chugs along speed along not like now
yeah and we derived by the CM broad
stairs and honest cottage and spend the
summer just living like little urchins
in t-shirt and a pair of shoes yeah we
have all our meals on the beach yep
picnic lunches eggy rolls oh and then in
the evening we have a barbecue and then
fall into thread actually exhausted and
wake up the next morning ready for some
more fun yeah very simple simple life
yeah every summer just the same thing
every teen yeah we used to remember we
used to go crabbing so there are rocks
it by the beach and you go and try and
catch crabs which is that's a shellfish
yeah yeah fascination crustaceans yeah
yeah and we try and we used to try and
catch as many crabs as we could and and
one year we got so many and and we gave
them names barnacle bells barnacle bill
Larry Larry Larry laughs very because he
was angry yeah it's okay yeah it means
angry so we used to catch these crabs
and then release them and I remember we
used to scream so loudly when when we
released them because they try and like
catches hey at you yeah and our mum
could hear is screaming from the beach
should be sitting in a deck chair on the
beach and we'd be miles out on the rocks
and she'd be able to hear us
we've released the crap amazing
[Music]
so another fun at speech activity with
the great wave gauge remember that one
yes yeah we used to play this really
super fun game and where we run a web so
a big wave comes rolling in yeah and you
have to run one spot to another on the
beach but it's close to the tide liner
yeah without it getting your feet wet
yeah sorry
and in subscribe came in it got harder
and harder so it's on those who played
up against the beach wall so we
literally had nowhere else to go
yeah and this this wage would come in
and we'd run and if we got our toes wet
then we lost yeah little wave one and
the great way we also used to play the
great ball in this guy again
when our dad used to stand on this sort
of raised platform and hit a ball up
into the air and we had to catch it
there's about Mia however many of us a
couple of four or five people and if we
caught it then we get the point and we
miss it then he gets the point yeah and
whoever got to ten first won the game
and that was always really yeah I love
the way that everything it used to be
the great wave game the great ball is
yeah yeah I think it ever just be kind
of you know low-key no be the biggest
the best the greater yeah yeah and I did
make it extra special like oh yeah right
to pick the great ball in the sky game
like and I remember dad mentioned it in
his wedding speech and I got married he
stood up and did a speech and he
mentioned the great ball in the sky game
and all our friends he's come to
Broadstairs with us came running up game
your dad mentioned my father they loved
it yeah it was very memorable yeah I
think it's a game that I think we should
continue to play I think yeah we'll just
move it through the generations
definitely yeah
one ski so when we were kids and we had
lots of my own I just remember birthday
parties as children
just endless turntable yeah filled with
children miscellaneous children yeah yes
not getting his guitar out so our dad
used to play the acoustic guitar for all
the children and he'd sing these songs
just amazing like so much fun when you
think about it and he put
a party tape so we used to saying things

trunk and went off the sack you wanna
sing that for us really quickly Nellie
