Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod.
Now, this has been a very expensive time of the year for me.
It's wedding season, isn't it?
Two weddings and two weekends.
Yep.
You've got a...
Travelling to both.
You've got a crippling gambling addiction.
Drug addiction. Drug addiction.
Drug addiction.
There's that, but weddings are more expensive.
I'm actually thinking of giving up the drugs so I can afford these weddings.
Oh, no, come on.
You're so much fun when you're on drugs.
I know, but I can't do both, and you've got to pick one or the other.
Oh.
Last weekend, the wedding we went to was at one of the groom's parents' place in this
garden.
Gay wedding.
Just to clarify that.
On the bus, when we pulled in, correct me if I'm wrong,
there was an audible gasp at the beautiful gardens.
We broke into applause.
Yes.
For what we learnt was, I was like, it looks like a hydrangea,
but it's white, limelight hydrangea.
And conical.
Yes.
Rose and twill shaped.
Rose and twill conical shaped flower.
I don't know much about gardens or gardening.
It was beautiful.
It was absolutely stunning.
What a place for a wedding.
One of the prettiest gardens I've ever seen.
That limelight hydrangea is stunning.
Can you catch yourself here talking?
Yes.
Oh, I'm fully into my garden.
I've got to sort my gardens out Because we've been Getting everything sorted
At our house
Not to sell it or anything
But like I'm like
Let's just knuckle down
And get
We've been there five years
Yep
Let's get it sorted
So the gardens are kind of
Like the next on the
Okay
So I spend a lot of time
Just like looking at them
And planning and such
And hydrangeas
Everyone loves a hydra
Now agapanthus
Can fuck right off
They can
Fuck right off
I fucking hate agapanthus
I fucking hate them
But they're everywhere
And you can't get rid of them.
Yeah.
Or you've got to
dig out the roots.
I feel like if I had
a bit of lawn
or section
it would be so minimalist.
There'd be some grass.
You'd do lime chip
like rocks.
Yeah.
There'd be no gardening.
I'd even probably do
astroturf.
You son of a bitch.
And maybe have
a water feature.
Can't imagine him mowing.
My father-in-law who's living living with us, said to me yesterday,
it just never ends, does it?
When I came in from, and I was like, no, no, it never does.
And then he went back to watching security body cam footage
of people being arrested in America for eight hours a day.
How's it going, my friend?
It's okay.
It's okay.
Everyone being arrested?
Yeah.
Any arrests? Yeah. Any arrest?
Yeah.
Woman?
Mostly woman?
There was a lot of woman being arrested and they were screaming.
What colour was the skin?
White.
Brown.
Oh, okay.
Everything.
Yeah, right.
These are all online.
And I said, you might want to turn that down a bit.
The screaming woman could upset the children.
Could.
Could do.
So back to this garden and it's gorgeous and it's beautiful.
And I said, I simply must.
And I was just going to sneak with one of the sharp knives off the table and sneak out under the cover of darkness and get myself some.
Oh, no.
The lamb knife.
I was going to take that and get myself some.
Dr. Shawnee's mother would have bloody had you.
No, because I would have taken a couple from the back.
Oh, right.
Okay.
For the cuttings.
So I didn't.
And I just said, I simply must get a cutting.
Yeah.
Okay.
And so I've got some cuttings of the limelight hydrangea.
Did you ask?
To try to grow mine.
You can get some on Trade Me, but I feel like these were magical.
Like they had been, they've got something special.
They were the aisle, because all of Dr. Shawnee's sisters got married in the garden as well. And so the limelight hydrangeas were the aisle flowers during one of his sister's weddings,
and the mum put them in the garden afterwards, and now they grew, and were the star of the garden.
Lovely.
And so I've got some cuttings, and to be honest, the wedding we're going to this weekend,
I've learned, is in a very posh neighborhood, and I'm expecting there might be some more cuttings I can get.
We can get some more cuttings.
I love getting a cutting.
Could you have changed? I've known you 20 get. We can get some more cuttings. I love getting a cutting. Because you've changed.
I've known you 20 years.
Yeah.
And you have really changed.
I'm very much, I can't get my dahlias to stick.
Yeah, right.
I can make mum think that it wasn't deep enough soil
and it wasn't rich enough soil.
So next year, those dahlias are going to pop off next year.
We've got a dirt patch.
You want to get some dahlias in there.
We've just got dirt. Just astrot to get some dailies in there. We've just got dirt.
Just astroturf it.
It's a lot easier.
And someone put in those
bloody, what are they?
Those spiky, horrendous
things that we've got
that just grow and shit.
Gerard raises a good point
though.
You wouldn't download
a plant.
This kind of is like
cloning a plant.
So it is kind of like
downloading it,
which the original
copy will remain
and you get your own.
The message that plays
before a DVD.
You wouldn't steal a handbag.
I would also 100% download a plant.
The tech's a way off, but I'd 100% go on Pirate Bay and download a plant.
Do it.
