you
oh gross it's monday the 6th of june how did i get a june we've talked about this so much this uh
this show we're just two old men we can't believe it's now june it's now 6th of june 6th of june
6th of june do you think yourself as being old because i'm older than you so yeah how are you
feeling right now about how it's all gone?
I feel old all the time.
I was saying to Charlie earlier,
Charlie who's our head of production here,
I was saying to him that what I've found as I've got older
is I'm a lot more physically sensitive to things like ailments
and bad living and all the rest of it.
I was feeling,
last few weeks I felt so tired
and so kind of de-energized
that by like 6pm every day I've been tired.
Okay.
But the other day,
I basically just said enough is enough.
I'm going to have that Floridix.
It's advertised on the tube.
I don't like taking medication.
It's not medication,
isn't it just fig juice or something?
I haven't taken it.
Right.
What I did was,
I just said,
look,
for a few days,
I'm just going to eat,
I'm going to eat really nicely,
really well,
clean eating,
for want of a better phrase,
and I went to the gym a few times
and I feel much better now.
Yeah.
It's that simple.
Yeah.
It's that easy.
Is your testosterone
just kind of like
pumped up a little bit
and you just sort of
get yourself going?
You get angry and shout at people?
People will laugh at me for saying this.
I did 45 minutes on the elliptical.
Great stuff.
Is the elliptical that one?
Yeah.
No impact, so it's good for my knee.
It's, I find...
It's me and the mums.
It's me and the mums.
No, I've got an elliptical at home.
I love it.
Have you really?
I have, yeah.
Would you recommend it?
Not the one I've got because I've not used it.
I don't know. Yeah, you really have to be, yeah. Would you recommend it? Not the one I've got because I've not used it. I don't know.
You really have to be into it,
I suppose.
But yeah, no,
because it's the same.
I can't run because of my knees.
How much did it cost you?
Oh, it was under lockdown.
It was under lockdown prices,
so it was when nobody
could get anything from Germany.
Right.
Because that's where they all made
or certainly assembled.
Is it? Okay.
I think it was about 500 quid.
Is it the most expensive
coat hanger you've ever bought,
do you reckon
pretty much yeah it doesn't even hang
coats really
is it a good quality one with a screen and everything
yeah well it's got a screen but it's not like
it's not got an iPad screen or anything
it does have this optional
app that you can sort of subscribe to
and you can
it syncs up how fast you're going
and how difficult the trail is to these pre-recorded videos.
Huh.
Sounds pretty old school.
Well, no.
So you've got on your mobile phone or your iPad or whatever,
you can stick that on the front and it goes as fast as you.
So you could pretend you're running around the Rockies
or I don't know, the Thunderdome.
I don't fucking know where.
But you can run around and it feels like you're...
Have you ever used it?
I used it quite a few times
in lockdown
I think it's quite a good workout
it's no impact
it is
and it does lie
that you
that you're working harder
than you actually are
it does sort of go
you've eaten 200 calories
I'm like
you've not munched up
200 calories
no way
you say that
but I think that's a really basic thing
they should be getting right
they shouldn't be lying about
no they shouldn't.
I just sort of go,
I've not munched a roast dinner.
I use the old watch for that.
So it's fine.
So I set the cardio thing going
when I get going
and it tells me how many calories I eat up.
What, because of how fast your heart rate is?
Yeah, yeah.
Heart rate, relative effort,
and all that kind of stuff.
Nice, okay.
This is a Garmin, mate.
Spare the night.
It's a Garmin, mate.
But I will go through 700 calories
on the elliptical, mate.
I don't think you will
though
45 minutes
I'm a big unit
I'm burning more calories
than you are
I'm twice your size
I don't know
700 calories
seems hard
you're about 8 stone
wet through
I'm a big strong man
I'm not strong actually
I'm just a big man
that's annoying
that's the annoying thing
about being me
because
you won't
and you'll be like
I'll cry me a river
because you can't even
reach the top shelf
in the supermarket
or whatever
and that's your problem
my problem is
people see me and go
he's going to be strong
can you help me lift this
do people actually think
that though
think about how many times
in your life
on a yearly basis
whether you're at your parents
or you're with your wife
or you're at home
whatever
you have to lift stuff
it happens quite a lot
and people expect you
to be strong
and when they see
someone like me
they think he's going
to be strong because as we've talked about before back in the day strong men were just people who could eat a lot of And people expect you to be strong. Yeah. And when they see someone like me, they think he's going to be strong.
Because as we've talked about before,
back in the day,
strong men were just people who could eat a lot of food.
Oh, mate, you should have seen me yesterday.
I was very impressed with myself.
But I'm not strong.
If someone wore a pass and saw me
molesting a rug doctor into the back of a Fiat 500,
it really was a wonderful...
It was like me lifting an Atlas stone.
They're really heavy, those things.
You could probably put your Fiat 500 in the rug doctor.
Similar size.
Yeah.
What have you got the rug doctor at again?
Dogs, innit?
What, so you have to rent a rug doctor every...
Dog keep pissing on the floor.
Every month.
He's got a 15, he's like,
that's my fucking ass, I'm going to piss where I want.
So he literally takes a piss anywhere at random.
Well, yeah, he does.
And then I was like, that stairs not coming up.
But no, I've got a rug doctor.
I cannot recommend it highly enough. Why are you putting it back in the Fiat 500? Because you only rented it. Well, yeah, he does. And then I was like, that stairs not coming up. But no, I've got a rug docker.
Cannot recommend it highly enough.
Why are you putting it back in the Fiat 500?
Because you only rented it.
Taking it back to the Morrisons.
How much did they cost to rent?
I think it's about 30 quid, maybe.
If you were going to rent that 10 times, you might as well buy one.
It's massive.
I don't have room for a rug doctor.
I barely have room for a doctor, which I actually need.
Can I be honest with you?
I don't know what a rug doctor looks like.
I've heard the name.
Yeah.
I don't really know what it is.
They're in those, like, forbidden little cupboards you see in Morrisons.
What?
And you go on the website and you pay the money, pay the man the money,
and it gives you a little code, and then you unlock the rug doctor thing.
You unlock the rug doctor locker. But is it massive, then?
Yeah, it's about that big.
Massive it is.
And what's the difference
between that and just a hoover?
It's just a really high-powered,
strong, muscular hoover.
Wet hoover, effectively.
A wet hoover?
Yeah, so it sprays the water
into the fibres.
I've got a little spot cleaner,
but these guys are absolutely chunky boys
and you can just do the whole room really, really quickly.
And to be fair,
that's taken out the stinking piss on the floor.
So how long do you let the piss stay there
before you get the rug doctor in?
What's the threshold?
It's been there for months.
Yeah, because I attack it with a little spot cleaner.
You do have a little chart on your wall
where you tick it off and it does tell you them
and you get a rug doctor in.
How much piss, yeah.
He's probably on commission with a rug doctor
he is
he's probably in the pocket
they're probably feeding him
with bones
he's in the pocket
of a big rug doctor
nuts
so that's what I've got
to look forward to
with my cats is it
did I tell you
they're still
my cat escaping
yeah out the front
insane
insane behaviour
I cut myself to pieces
on the fucking thorn
crazy cat
absolutely ridiculous
what a crazy cat
so while we talk about
oh yeah
we talk about lifting things we're talking about lifting things
people are
all I'm saying is
people ask you to lift
things a lot
okay
and it's not as easy
as it looks
for someone like me
who's big but not strong
that's the only point
I was making
yeah
well it's National
Gardening Exercise Day
so maybe you can lift up
some rockery
or lift up some soil
for people
yeah
Mimi will say that
sometimes
she'll be like
I've been indoors all day
I want to go and get
some exercise in the garden and she'll just garden and it'll be like, I've been indoors all day, I want to go and get some exercise in the garden.
And she'll just garden
and it'll be good exercise
for her.
It's not really something
I do for exercise though.
I'm on the elliptical.
You're on the elliptical?
You can't garden
on the elliptical.
She's in the middle
of gardening
and I'm just elliptical
in front of a massive
flower bed,
just tearing it
all to pieces.
Speaking of gardening
though,
do you see that
kind of garden-based
prank outside
of Gatwick Airport? Oh, I like that. Yeah, it was goodbased prank outside of Gatwick Airport?
Oh, I like that.
Yeah, it was good.
People landing in Gatwick Airport could look out the window of their EasyJet flight and see,
welcome to Luton.
And that was Max Foch who did that.
He was Jack's friend.
Max Foch, right.
He's done Jack's show a few times.
He's very busy.
He never stops.
He never stops pranking that boy.
He's just always pranking that lad.
Didn't he run for Mayor of London as well? I think so. He's always pranking that lad just always pranking that lad didn't he run for mayor of London as
well I think so he's
always pranking that
lad always pranking
about because I told
you when I went to
Puerto Rico yeah
he was there
plane yeah Max
Foster flying it
no the little plane
the pilot when we
landed he went
welcome to St.
Thomas as his joke
right okay told you
that story and I was
like I didn't mind
that because he
did a good job and
he did a good job
he earned the right
to joke at the end
what's a good job
compared to a bad job when it comes to flight got you there on that note I was like, I didn't mind that because he did a good job. He did a good job. He earned the right to joke at the end. What's a good job compared to a bad job?
When it comes to flat guys.
He got you there.
On that note, I was speaking to, so I went to a,
I went to a, Mimi's friend's son's first birthday.
Okay.
And her husband's in the US Air Force.
Yes.
But they're based, at the time they were based in the UK.
And so all the people at the birthday party with their kids
were pilots, basically.
Okay.
And I was showing them, you know, can you birthday party with their kids were pilots basically and I was showing
them
can you imagine
this
oh my god
I was showing them
what do you think
about that
what do you think
about that
what do you think
about that flyboy
some of them
weren't interested
I'll ride your tail
any day
etc
I was like
how much of our
Top Gun is actually
true
I was showing this
video
I'll be yowing man
and one of them
said and I think
there's a reasonable
chance they were
so bored of me
they were just
saying anything to get rid of me they were just saying anything
to get rid of me
but they were saying
you never need to be
worried on the plane
like that because
it's so light
if the engine cuts
it will just glide
and land quite softly
you'll be fine
hmm
I reckon you've got
more chance
I guess
than if you're landing
a Boeing
laden with fuel
but I mean
I don't know
little tiny little plane
little tiny little baba
well they land on that passengerba. Well, they land on,
that passenger landed one recently.
Yes.
They land on big motorways sometimes.
That was a brilliant effort,
that guy.
Imagine doing that.
If you had shown someone
the video of that passenger
landing that plane,
and no context,
just watched the video,
you wouldn't have thought
there was anything different.
No, it was a bit loosey-goosey,
but I think...
Oh, that happens though.
That happens.
The commercial airline pilot who witnessed it,
the guy at the control tower said,
he just watched a man who'd never flown before land that plane,
and he goes, oh, wow, good job.
And I got a bit tearful by that.
I don't know what it is.
But as soon as that happened, as soon as I read that story,
I was like,
it's going to be a reveal
that he's flown millions of times.
You reckon?
Yeah.
But it hasn't happened,
so it's fine.
I texted my mate about that
and he said to me,
it's easy flying a plane.
Push it forward,
cows get bigger.
Pull back,
cows get smaller.
That was like his final lesson.
But there's another story, Pete,
that we were going to talk about,
actually,
on that note
about that YouTuber guy who police have suspected
he crashed a plane on purpose.
Yeah.
For YouTube views.
For YouTube views.
That's a risky gambit, isn't it?
Yeah.
He just crashed his plane.
He crashed his plane.
So apparently he's a former Olympic snowboarder
and he posted a 13-minute video of himself
escaping a crashing plane in December 2021, right?
But then there was a three-month-long investigation
into the crash, because there has to be,
because of a plane crash, there has to be.
And the FAA, Federal Aviation Administration,
said some of the quotes in their report are ridiculous.
One of them says,
during this flight, you opened the left-side part door
before you claimed the engine had failed.
Yeah.
All this,
basically,
he's accused of
being in a situation
where he engineered
an engine failure
and all of the evidence
seemed to sort of
hinge on the fact that
A,
he did a recce
the day before.
When he bought the plane
off the man,
he said,
I'm going to do
something big with it.
And then he also put a lot of cameras like a weird amount of cameras uh on on a plane that he'd never done
before uh he behaved strangely in the cockpit uh and all this stuff yes they said they said he
didn't um he didn't do any of the things that a pilot would do so you're trying to start the
plane's engine yeah didn't scope out places to safely land
before exiting the plane,
and jumped out of it while,
and this is a quote,
holding a camera attached to a selfie stick
and continuing to record the aircraft during your descent.
Yeah, yeah.
Very strange.
Yeah, he's obviously going to get his license revoked,
I suppose.
But imagine,
but what if that had gone really fucking wrong
and it landed in a farmer's house?
Crushing a farmer.
And it does speak to,
we were talking about this on Thursday,
weren't we,
about when you were talking about
that kind of death cult.
It does kind of speak to the idea
that humans,
I know this is an extreme example,
but it's like,
mate,
you've got,
fair enough,
you've got 1.75 million views for it.
That's a lot of views.
Well done, mate.
Well done.
What do you get for that?
Six grand.
But I think if you're being
totally honest with yourself,
when you go to sleep that night, in your bed, you feel a little bit dead inside. I think if you're being totally honest with yourself, when you go to sleep that night in your bed,
you feel a little bit dead inside.
I think you feel a little bit dead inside.
And as soon as that story comes out,
the algorithm's burying that.
Yeah.
Imagine if they changed the algorithm the night after.
You're not going to see a fucking coin from that, mate.
Yeah.
He said, I can't talk about it because of my attorney,
but the truth of the situation will come out in time.
Right, okay.
Which I think tells its own story
it's a fucking mad thing to do
in a way
in a way
I'm not defending it
no one got hurt
so fair enough
in a way
it is also
quite ballsy
yeah
but he's a snowboard
he's a thrill seeker
he's a man
who cares nothing
for the rules
and regulations
of the way we conduct
our lives
what do you think if he came in here for an hour he'd be like oh it's just so boring who cares nothing for the rules and regulations of the way we conduct our lives.
What do you think?
If he came in here for an hour,
he'd be like,
oh, it's just so boring.
Life is so boring.
Yeah.
Breathing is so boring
and he'd just stop breathing
and dies.
It's so boring.
I'm opting out.
It's not how many breaths you have,
but it's how many moments
take your breath away.
Who said that?
That's what I said.
That's like a trope, isn't it?
That's like one of those meme
motivational quotes, isn't it? It's like one of those meme motivational quotes, isn't it?
It's like one of those
motivational quotes.
It'll be alongside
like a silhouetted man
hanging off a rock.
Stick it on a bit of driftwoods.
Hanging up in your kitchen.
I'm not slagging off
the rock climbers
because I've watched
a few documentaries
and I'm quite into it.
I think partly because
my power to weight ratio
is so poor
that it seems
completely exotic to me.
So I'm not slagging them off. I'm just saying that kind of whole idea is quite tedious isn't it that kind of wow man
seek out the thrills man don't you think i i was watching um uh jackass 4.5 the oscar winning
jackass the oscar winning jackass uh but they've done like a netflix uh kind of remember like
jackass 2.5 had extra scenes
and like a bit of a
behind the scenes
I need to go back
and watch all of them
I haven't seen them
in years
and I was watching
one of the
blocks dad's
been chucked out
of a plane
and I was like
oh god
it does look good
parachuting doesn't it
but it can go so wrong
I'd like
so very wrong
yeah so I'd like
to be at the point
where the parachute is fine
and I'm slowly coming to land.
Yeah, just jump in there, yeah.
Yeah, because that looks amazing.
Yeah.
The view and all the rest of it.
And you land and you're just straight in the hospital
and you pick up a frying pan and a gun.
Yeah, exactly.
And you're off and going.
I've got a 33% win rate on PUBG at the moment.
Yeah.
It's incredible, really.
This is D-Day.
Not on D-Day, mate.
Unbelievable.
Oh, is it?
Yeah, that's disrespectful. Luckily, it's also National App is D-Day not on D-Day mate unbelievable oh is it yeah luckily it's also
National Applesauce Cake Day
which
I've seen an applesauce cake
it looks fucking disgusting
it looks like one of those
kind of tray bakes
like a kind of
like a spongy kind of cake
presumably underneath
is the
acrid
rotten
applesauce
that you'd see on
on your pork chop.
No, I'll eat the shit out of that.
Would you?
Oh, yeah.
Disgusting.
I'm actually going to go and have some in the break now.
Okay.
When we come back, we'll do some emails.
All right.
Luke, where's your insulin?
You've had too much or too little.
I don't really know how it works.
This is Luke and Pete Shaw.
I'm Pete Donaldson.
And since it's Monday, we're not doing battery brands,
but we are doing emails.
Yeah, before I get this email from Neil,
which I really want to read out
that's alright
don't worry
if it's not you
Kate's personal space invasion
is unbelievable
she kicks me all the time
in the round
like a spider
what was I going to say
oh yeah so
when I had to do my NHS
health check
because I'm over 40
I'm going to get to your email
Neil
but before I do
I just wanted to say this
I was really scared about the blood sugar level
thing. Because I eat a lot of
biscuits and cakes and stuff. But it actually
came out normal. It came out absolutely fine.
Because you work out. You're
a busy man. Which made me think,
how high is the threshold?
Because I
admittedly forgot I had this
test the night before I ate a whole packet of biscuits.
I've still not failed it. I ate a whole bag of biscuits. Right, okay. I've still not failed it.
I ate a whole bag of toffees yesterday.
Now that's proper old nan behaviour.
What about your teeth?
What do you mean, what about my teeth?
What, as in a hard toffee?
Yeah.
Mate, I couldn't do that.
I've got no fillings.
I don't care.
I've got a devil-may-care attitude to my teeth.
Do you need fillings?
Because that's a different story.
They're rotten.
Genetically, you must have great teeth then.
Flew right in the water, innit? It's a low-income area. They just absolutely cover it, innit? Right, do you reckon that's a different story. They're rotten. Genetically, you must have great teeth then. Fluoride in the water in it.
It's a low-income area.
They just absolutely cover it in it.
Right.
Do you reckon that's why?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, in shitty areas,
they put more fluoride in the waters.
Yeah, me and my sister don't really...
I think my sister's got a couple of...
Yeah, I've got...
I've got okay teeth, actually.
Actually, thanks.
I think we found something medically
you're actually strong at.
It's amazing.
Yeah, creating calcification.
If someone said to you, you can have normal teeth,
but none of all your other ailments, would you take it?
Yeah, I definitely would.
There you go then.
You still lost out.
Neil, Neil's been in touch.
Hello at LukeandPeach.com is the destination he sent his missive to,
and now we're reading it out.
That's how it works.
You can do the same.
Well done.
Send an email then to hello at LukeandPeach.com.
Neil says the following.
Hi, guys.
Following on from last Monday's nickname chat, Well done. Send an email then to helloatleaguecompeteshow.com. Neil says the following. Hi, guys.
Following on from last Monday's nickname chat,
I've just remembered a story about a guy who I worked with for a couple of months during the pandemic.
I work in a foundry that makes a few bits and bobs for ventilators.
Oh, yes, please.
So we became key workers and we were very busy.
We got a new driver in from an agency who introduced himself to us as Maverick.
Maverick.
About two weeks later, his best mate from childhood came in and started working there too.
And had no idea who Maverick was until he met him and said,
I've known this cunt 18 years and no one's ever called him Maverick.
We then decided the mate who should be called Maverick,
which pissed off the original Maverick who became Goose
while he was with us.
So they've changed it up
and now they've got
Maverick and Goose
working at the foundry
with them.
I quite like stories
like that.
I quite like the idea.
I'll take any story
that's in a foundry.
Yeah.
I'll take,
if I want to know
more stories
about what happens
in the foundry.
If you're listening
to this right now
in a foundry,
that is your bat signal
to send an email.
There was a man on Facebook Marketplace
and he was selling
like 200,
you know the spikes on top of like fences?
You know like big raw iron fences?
Yeah.
He just had like 100 of these fuckers
and he's like,
they can be welded.
I was like,
yeah, anything can be welded
but I mean,
why have you got 200 of them?
Did you ask him? He'd lop them off. How much anything can be welded. But I mean, why have you got 200 of them? Did you ask him?
He'd be lopping them off.
How much are you selling them for?
I mean, it was a good price.
You'd get them in your filing cabinet, wouldn't you?
You've really got...
I can think of no reason to own them
apart from put them in a big sack
and hit someone with them.
I've got no use for them.
They'd be really heavy, wouldn't they?
They would, yeah.
I guess someone would mind welding them
onto their garden fence,
maybe to keep out intruders.
Maybe, I don't know.
I can't figure it out.
Do you know what used to be?
I don't know if this is because it's illegal now.
Yeah.
This is just reminding me.
I genuinely have no idea why this doesn't happen much anymore.
It was a big thing where I grew up,
for people to put broken glass and cement on the top of their walls.
Yeah, I'm fairly certain that wasn't even allowed in the 80s,
but my dad certainly did it.
Did he really?
Yeah, cement on top of the bricks and, yeah,
didn't prevent the seagull wagon from coming through the back of it,
let's make that very clear.
But, yeah, because people used to jump.
They used to sort of scale a wall, jump in and grab my dad's bike.
It just seems like a very, it's just, I mean,
for the sake of a shitty racing bike, it's a lot of variables,
a lot of chances to break your ankles
and stuff innit
yeah so
yeah it is
and so we didn't have that
we had a back fence
which was quite high
right
and having said that
I used to climb over it
all the time
and then we had this
this big fence panel
which my dad had fashioned
into a big gate
for the hard standing
for the car to go on
right
so you'd pull this post out
open the big fence
reverse the car in
and then close the fence and put the fence post back.
Right.
But there was no, like, no kind of broken glass or spikes or anything.
We used to get clothes stolen off our washing line quite a bit.
I remember once, I might have told you this before,
but I remember once in PE, we were getting changed,
and this one kid had this jumper on or something
that this other kid said had been stolen from his washing line.
He said, I know it's mine because I can tell because of this and this.
Interesting.
And they had a big fight about it.
One of them ended up in the urinal.
That's probably why I remember it.
In the jumper or not in the jumper?
No, they're both half-Makers.
We're getting changed for PE.
Okay.
Yeah.
I was going to say, if you've got a pissy jumper,
nobody wants that jumper.
But that was a thing, wasn't it?
Cement and broken glass.
Yeah, it was, yeah.
How was that allowed? It was just demented. Where would you even... I mean, they were all glass bottles, wasn't it? Cement and broken glass. Yeah, it was, yeah. How was that allowed?
It's just demented.
I mean, they were all glass bottles, weren't they?
Kind of like thick.
Just thick.
But do you remember your dad smashing the glass to make it?
No, I don't.
I don't know where they got the glass from.
He did it at night.
He did it at night.
I have a really sort of atmospheric kind of image of my dad one time.
There was an issue with the...
It was absolutely coming down.
It was absolutely chucking it down.
And I looked out the window
and lightning was sort of flashing.
It was lightning flashing in the distance.
And my dad...
How old were you?
I was, it was sort of,
I probably was about seven, I reckon.
Okay.
And my dad had a massive drain,
you know those big drain sticks
that go on for
they sort of
connect together
like pool cubes
drain sweeper yeah
and my dad was attacking
this fucking sewer
in the opening
in the backyard
he was like
and it was just
every time the lightning
flashed
my dad in a long coat
was just
absolutely
attacking this sewer
that's chilling
it is chilling
it looked but it looked like he was on the deck of a boar
in Deadliest Catch or something.
It was pretty dramatic.
It was really a dramatic image.
Did you block the sewer with a big turd or something?
I don't know what had happened,
but it just wasn't working.
I can remember being in my bedroom,
which overlooked the back garden,
of which I've just spoken about.
And there was a guy live next door.
Weirdly, he used to get in quite a few rows with my old man.
Because he would be really noisy.
He was a young single guy.
He had lodgers.
They used to have parties.
Lodgers.
They're all terraced houses.
My dad wanted them to be quiet,
because obviously we were in bed.
And that guy later got done for attempted murder.
I think I told you.
He chased someone down the street and stabbed him.
Okay.
That'll do it.
Yeah.
But my dad would be getting aroused with him all the time.
Anyway, he had his own glazing business.
So he would go and put UPVC windows in the people's houses and stuff.
That was his thing.
And he had these couple of assistants who used to be around his back garden,
which doubled up as this place where they used to keep all the windows.
Because I remember it vividly because if a football went over there i'd jump on
the fence to get it back and there'd be windows everywhere right and they had these little um
i can't really describe what they were like like dishwasher tablets right right in my mind they're
called like salt blocks right but i think they were for cleaning the windows okay so maybe you
dissolve one in a bucket yeah maybe i don't really know that's kind of efficient i suppose but what
i do know is there are amazing missiles to throw at people.
They were like stones, basically.
But we had an endless supply of them,
so we used to get them all the time.
Anyway, so we had been throwing them around
all day in the back alleyway where we used to play.
Yeah.
And at each other and all the rest of it.
You were so clean.
Yeah.
So clean afterwards.
And we obviously didn't dissolve them,
so they were really fucking hard. And then that night I was in bed and the fucking door went and it was the police
right and the police were saying oh yeah there's um it's been a lot of complaints about these salt
blocks being thrown hitting people's windows and stuff yeah so i just want to check if um
if you've had any complaints or anything and i can remember my mom answering the door it must
have been late at night because i was in bed and my mum said
no I don't know anything
about this
which she didn't
I had about
40 of them
in my bedroom
but so did every other kid
in the fucking street
so luckily
the police didn't come up
and search or anything like that
but I think the next door neighbour
got busted for that
because they were his
and he had let them
basically be stolen
essentially
what?
so you were supplying
everyone with a supply of...
I don't know if you can get done for that,
but I mean, I think...
Supplying salt blocks.
I think the buck stopped with him.
Why have you got so many salt blocks?
Well, I've clearly got a job that means I need them.
Yeah.
It's not my fault they're getting stolen.
Yeah, I mean, later on,
he did get busted for attempted murder.
I think he's still in jail.
Okay.
So, I mean, you know.
Well, look.
Well, he got us come up and saying, didn't he?
Yeah, but I'm not sure you guys... Maybe that set him on the wrong trail. But I mean, you know. Well, he got us come up and saying, didn't he?
Maybe that set him on the wrong trail.
But I also remember
there was a
big fashion
for using this
really tar-like paint.
Yeah,
that was,
yeah,
burglar's grease.
Yeah.
You used to climb on it
and it used to be
all over your hands.
I realise that's
what it's there for.
I used to get that
all the time
because you used to
go and get your
people back or whatever.
But you realise
that sometimes
you need to be up
where the burglar grease is
so you're like
well you know
like
you've done yourself
off there a little bit
haven't you
we've had to go
and get a football
from on top of like
there's no going back
no
yeah
how do you get rid of it then
I don't know
probably some
strong acid
I don't know
it's quite oily isn't it
salt blocks
salt blocks
