| Michael (PS584) |
[185] Does your mother like ginger? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[186] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[187] I must give you one and take it for her. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[189] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[190] But |
| Rachel (PS582) |

| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[195] Oh do you? |

[196] and cashew nuts. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[197] Oh! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[198] You haven't given that to me. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[199] With root ginger or powdered ginger. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[200] It's root ginger. [201] It's delicious! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[202] Very strong. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[203] Cos it's very subtle. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[204] But it's in a |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[205] Oh I |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[206] packet is it? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[207] It's actually very subtle. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[208] Mhm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[209] It's delicious. [210] So many people ... when they eat it, they can't actually ... decipher what it has, you know what it is, that it is ginger. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[211] Yes. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[212] It's very subtle. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[213] I think Margaret doesn't understand the word subtle. |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[214] Cos she takes about two pounds of root ginger ... peels it |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[215] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[216] and chops it |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[217] and puts it with a pound of ... Philadelphia cheese into the cavity of the chicken ... outside ... it's just lightly rubbed with oil |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[218] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[219] and then about two ounces of powdered ginger ... sprinkled over it. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[220] Two ounces as well as all the ginger? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[221] And puts it into roast in the oven, and takes it out after fifty minutes ... and then ... you get ... Philadelphia cheese and white wine ... melt it down in the wine |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[222] Mm mm! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[223] stirring a bit more ... you know, crushed root ginger |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[224] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[225] and that's your sauce to serve on the side. [226] I tell, you've never eaten anything like it! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[227] Is it nice? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[228] I could eat the tail. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[229] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[230] It's gorgeous. [231] But i , I keep saying to Michael it's so expensive! [232] I mean root ginger's like a pound a pound, or two pound a pound. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[233] No, not really. [234] It's not, it's not as expensive as it used to be. [235] It's got more and more popular strangely enough. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[236] But she does ginger tea. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[237] Oops. [238] So do I? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[239] Oh I haven't drunk ginger tea before. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[240] Well I'll make you ginger tea. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[241] Well we never tried that before. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[242] But that's sounds what, can I just ask again, so you have a roast chicken yo , and you ... mix two |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[243] A pound of Philadelphia cheese. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[244] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[245] But she does about two pound of root ginger. [246] Most normal people would have half a pound at the most. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[247] That's two good roots. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[248] You crush it or do you chop |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[249] Two whole, bash it. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[250] it up? [251] Bash it? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[252] Bash, bash. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[253] Yeah. [254] And you put that, mix that in |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[255] Mix in. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[256] with the Philadelphia |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[257] Into the cavity. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[258] Right. [259] And |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[260] yo |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[261] then ... after |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[262] and then |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[263] fifty minutes |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[264] oil it, oil |
| Michael (PS584) |
[265] It's [...] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[266] the outside |
| Michael (PS584) |
[267] as if it's full |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[268] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[269] and moist. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[270] Put the ground, |
| Michael (PS584) |
[271] [...] with the |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[272] the ground ginger |
| Michael (PS584) |
[273] the ... the |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[274] Mhm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[275] you know, the powdered stuff. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[276] Philadelphia cheese cooked in and |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[277] Cheese and everything inside. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[278] keeping the whole chicken [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[279] Mm. [280] Mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[281] And then roast it. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[282] And then after fifty minutes you do the ... melt the |
| Michael (PS584) |
[283] She, well she cooks her chicken for only fifteen minutes, but I would cook my chicken |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[284] Oh. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[285] longer. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[286] Yeah. [287] Are we talking about a roast, a whole chicken? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[288] A ro , a whole chicken. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[289] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[290] Fifteen minutes? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[291] Fifty. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[292] Fifty. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[293] Oh fifty. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[294] That's still pretty short |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[295] Mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[296] It |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[297] isn't it? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[298] it's about an hour and a half to cook a chicken. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[299] But |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[300] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[301] you could cook, you could cook it |
| Michael (PS584) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[302] for longer with that inside couldn't you? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[303] Fifty, fifty and I wouldn't want to eat it. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[304] Right. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[305] Couldn't you? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[306] It's very moist. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[307] I don't like overcooked chicken. [308] I like it |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[309] But that'd be pink? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[310] Do you like it pink? [311] So , surely |
| Michael (PS584) |
[312] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[313] yeah, it'll still be pink. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[314] I thought you had to be quite careful with chicken. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[315] Well, you're not gonna be [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[316] Well we only ever use Marks and Spencers ... free range chicken. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[317] We ... we used to have these in Dublin didn't we? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[318] Can we give this dog |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[319] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[320] some chickens? |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[321] Oh don't! [322] I'll have to try that one in, in Dublin, tell Molly I've been. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[323] That sounds wonderful! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[324] It's still a good thing to try. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[325] Yeah, we do a ... well of course we, [...] ... we used to make contact with who, were having a dinner party that we went to. [326] That's why we do all our entertaining [...] ... one at a time. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[327] Why do you only use Marks and Spencers' chickens. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[328] Sheila says they're the best in England. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[329] Really? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[330] She won't have anything else in the hotel. [331] If there's a chicken dish in the hotel ... chickens don't come from our suppliers, they come from Marks and Spencers. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[332] Do Marks and Spencers |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[333] So you just freeze them do you? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[334] obviously you get them then from ... in bulk from |
| Michael (PS584) |
[335] I just [...] . [336] No. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[337] What you just go to the supermarkets and buy ... a whole of chickens? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[338] Mhm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[339] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[340] That's our extravagance. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[341] Excuse me, er, for a moment. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[342] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[343] Well she thinks they're far superior to anybody |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[344] Can I help you? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[345] else's. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[346] Yeah. [347] The napkins |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[348] Mm mm! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[349] are napkins that we've been buying in antique fairs. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[350] Have you? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[351] Are they really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[352] Mm. [353] Yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[354] They were wonderful! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[355] So you probably think |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[356] I think |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[357] they starch them though. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[358] Oh well I have them ordered. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[359] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[360] We have them ordered. [361] Are they nice? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[362] They are beautiful! |
| Michael (PS584) |
[363] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[364] They really are lovely. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[365] We got about a hundred napkins [laughing] upstairs [] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[366] Really? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[367] Yeah. [368] The napkins to ... well cheaper than buying new ones isn't it? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[369] Mm mm! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[370] Yes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[371] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[372] You get them for two pounds fifty. [373] Four pounds. [374] Five pounds each. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[375] They're wonderful aren't they? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[376] You go to Peter and pay that for an ordinary |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[377] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[378] Oh yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[379] what d'ya call it, kind of |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[380] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[381] I ... just thought that was absolutely delicious! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[382] Dave has a gorgeous recipe for erm ... Teriyaki beef. [383] On the menu of Biggs. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[384] Oh what's |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[385] Really? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[386] that? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[387] She puts the ... pickled ginger on one side ... and ... another, like a ... Japanese horseradish called Wasabe ... which is green ... don't try it, it'll blow your head off! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[388] Really? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[389] Oh yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[390] And th , the, the sort of steak is then it's er cooked like soya sauce |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[391] Oh yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[392] and marinated |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[393] Mm mm! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[394] then it's served in strips. [395] Just delicious! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[396] Is, is it expensive to eat Biggs? |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[397] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[398] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[399] Oh I was just thinking, it'd be nice to go there. [400] I didn't think it would be |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[401] The starters are about nine pounds to ... in at thirty five for caviar. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[402] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[403] Main courses are about eighteen to ... twenty eight. [404] And the puddings make about sixty pounds. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[405] So it's sixty pounds each |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[406] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[407] then? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[408] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[409] And that's for the |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[410] Plus your booze. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[411] Yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[412] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[413] And is the drink very expensive? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[414] Ya. [415] Her mark-up is about ... so what I normally do, she has never ever told me to pay for anything. [416] And she says go and have a meal |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[417] Oh yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[418] then |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[419] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[420] you know, and if anybody else does, they do ... but I always insist on paying for my drinks. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[421] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[422] And |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[423] Thank you. [424] Which one? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[425] she obviously didn't know this for a long time ... and then one day I said to her, well, it was lovely meal and all that but I do think your mark-up on the wine is scandalous! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[426] What did she say? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[427] Of course I get a staff discount. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[428] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[429] She says well ... I know, and you know that that bottle of wine costs |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[430] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[431] ten ninety five ... and, and we had two bottles last night so ... it costs us sixty pounds. [432] ... Well done Michael. [433] Who's making Gearoid pay? [434] Nobody makes me pay for it, I always pay for my drinks. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[435] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[436] So it was murder! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[437] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[438] I said I would never go back again |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[439] I'll help you Michael. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[440] No, I'll, I'll do it, it's okay. [441] I'm all under control |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[442] Are you sure? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[443] now. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[444] She wouldn't let me pay for it. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[445] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[446] So fair to say, the staff are depending on their tips to supplement their salary |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[447] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[448] so if I don't pay anything |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[449] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[450] they've lost that |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[451] Yes. [452] Right. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[453] ability of earning that money |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[454] Yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) | [cough] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[455] [...] , so |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[456] You can't leave a tip regardless? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[457] Well , Michael always leaves a tip. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[458] Mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[459] But what we've done now ... they've agreed to let me pay ... and I pay cost price for the drinks. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[460] Right. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[461] So we can drink ourselves silly and get a bill for about ten pounds. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[462] And all that wonderful food! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[463] Oh that's very good isn't it? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[464] I'm looking forward to the ... sweet I must |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[465] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[466] say. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[467] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[468] Thank you for dinner. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[469] Maybe Thursday. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[470] Have you got a busy week now Michael? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[471] Well Tuesday is my busiest day. [472] I'm getting |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[473] What? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[474] some more in. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[475] Oh really? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[476] Yeah. [477] That's alright. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[478] Cos they're around then? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[479] Yeah. [sniff] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[480] And how long are yours away for? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[481] Too long. [482] Monday morning, four A M they landed. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[483] Oh! [484] So you'll have a ... an awful week then as usual? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[485] Well I'm hoping I'm going to have a nice week but it ... Mavis , my housekeeper's away until Wednesday ... so I can't leave the house ... during the day. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[486] Oh right. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[487] Because the morning maid goes home at one o'clock ... and doesn't come back again until six. [488] [...] the gardener comes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[489] Yes. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[490] I can't just go off and have a look for somebody or |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[491] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[492] go wandering down the high street can I? [493] Or whatever. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[494] No. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[495] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[496] So Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I fully intend to [...] . [497] Cos I never ever have time off. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[498] I know, you said before you hardly miss a lunch. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[499] Never. [500] ... Which is crazy! [501] I mean, I really do resent it sometimes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[502] I'm not surprised. |
| Michael (PS584) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[503] Yes. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[504] Cos it's dark in the morning when I go into work and it's dark when I'm going home in the evenings. [505] It's getting a bit ridiculous! [506] It's getting [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[507] And does provide food for you to have? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[508] Occasionally. [509] I mean, at the moment there's no housekeeper so unless I actually say to the maid will you just put something in the oven for me? [510] That's it. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[511] That's appalling though! |
| Michael (PS584) |
[512] And on , on erm ... Thursday ... Thursday evening before they were going out to Mark she came home at ... just about half one. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[513] She came and made me a ham sandwich ... and the maid just look at her ... [...] to eat it now. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[514] Brilliant! |
| Michael (PS584) |
[515] There really was not a scrap of [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[516] That's awful! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[517] Because the housekeeper ... sorts all that out, so when she's away no one does it? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[518] But she bought all these things for me from Marks and Spencers, you know breaded chicken and |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[519] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[520] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[521] breasts. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[522] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[523] I put them all in the deep freeze. [524] Unless you think about it, you know the day before ... or the |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[525] Yeah |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[526] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[527] morning you come in. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[528] But surely you can just defrost it in the microwave? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[529] She doesn't have a microwave. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[530] Does she not? [531] Why doesn't she use a |
| Michael (PS584) |
[532] She doesn't like them. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[533] microwave? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[534] Doesn't like them. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[535] But she bought you one. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[536] She get you one. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[537] That was quite funny because ... it was our first Christmas down there ... and I was saying to the housekeeper that I ... I wouldn't mind having people come and stay and ... [...] ... not a problem because we've got a lovely cooker ... and we're going to bring our microwave down from [...] . [538] Said it's electric, I'm just going to unplug it and bring it down and put it on the work top. [539] The only thing is that it's chocolate brown and my kitchen's all white. [540] And she did and so ... I think ... two days before Christmas Lady said to me, okay ... I shall go into Peter and choose whatever microwave you want. [541] Just charge it to my account. [542] That's right. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[543] What? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[544] She said well ... you can't be carrying microwaves around England every time you want to have a meal. [545] And just, I know that's what, you haven't got one in the cottage and ... there you are, go and get it. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[546] She's so generous isn't she? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[547] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[548] There was no kind of |
| Rachel (PS582) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[549] pricing mentioned. |
| Rachel (PS582) | [cough] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[550] I went to Peter |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [clears throat] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[551] and looked at, you know, little ones, and huge ones |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[552] Oh yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[553] and things that did that thing and washing up and all the rest |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[554] and I thought what am I going to do? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[555] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[556] Cos I mean I wasn't with her that long. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[557] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[558] It was like my first Christmas. [559] And what was considered acceptable and what was considered being bloody greedy! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[560] [laughing] Yeah [] . |
| Michael (PS584) |
[561] I said to the guy, how many of these could I actually walk out with? [562] And he said none. [563] They're all display models? [564] I said what have you got in the so , you know, warehouse on Sloane Avenue ... in |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[565] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[566] white? [567] Oh I think that was one of two. [568] The other one was like four hundred and ninety nine pounds. [569] So, I'll take it. [570] I didn't know, I didn't even know what I was taking. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[571] Really? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[572] I still haven't a clue of what er the |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[573] the pamphlet, it's far too complicated for me. [574] She's like that. [575] I mean, she's really sweet. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[576] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[577] I'm very careful never ... to admire things or enthuse about things. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[578] Because she's likely to give them to you? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[579] Because she's likely to give them to you. [580] I mean, she knows I love Gardenia |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[581] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[582] and because she was in ... Mustique ... and hadn't bought me a birthday present ... she made sure that there were two Gardenia plants at the party that night she bought me. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[583] Really? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[584] She's like that. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[585] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[586] She knows we love the pink champagne. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[587] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[588] The brand is in. [589] And it's not ... kind of standard champagne in the place ... but she always keeps a supply. [590] Always has champagne. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[591] Got any champagne at home? [592] Get another bottle of that. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[593] He must be running low. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[594] You see I, I mean I know obviously the perks don't outweigh all that, er, at least you do get some perks. [595] At least you know, she can be generous and |
| Michael (PS584) |
[596] Yes. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[597] But she can be absolutely demonic ... there's no doubt about that. [598] She really can. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[599] Mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[600] And she drives you insane! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[601] Well like you said last time, I think only a man can put up with her. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[602] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[603] That's probably why she got through so many women. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[604] I think she's on back on the right track as well with her. [605] She was in a rut. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[606] Okay. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[607] Really? [608] There is more to life than ... worrying about how the maid's ironed your ... nightdress or ... you know. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[609] So she does have a housekeeper that lives in? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[610] No. [611] Now Molly's been with her since she first got married, you know. [612] She's a big Portuguese man-of-war. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[613] [laugh] ... And then she has a ... maid? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[614] Who's very bitter. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[615] Is she? [616] Why |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[617] Well |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[618] is she bitter? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[619] well she's had a miserable life of her own kind of thing. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[620] She's not married? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[621] Doesn't like Sir Mark. [622] Her husband left her. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[623] Oh. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[624] Doesn't like Sir Mark. [625] I think resents him enormously. [626] He doesn't like her. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[627] Oh really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[628] Because, you know, I understand that ... before he came along she was there ... you know, and that kind of situation |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[629] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[630] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[631] where ... [tut] ... you know, well it never used to be like that. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[632] Is it |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[633] Mm mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[634] her first marriage then? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[635] This is the original |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[636] [...] what? [637] Lady ? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[638] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[639] Third. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[640] Oh third! [641] Really? [642] I didn't know that. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[643] Number one was killed in a car crash? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[644] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[645] And her, their children were not ... two and three years of age. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[646] Oh how awful! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[647] And the same week ... that he was killed, Sasha, her daughter was in ... Great Ormond Street ... having surgery for cancer of the brain. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[648] That's appalling! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[649] So |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[650] So she must have been quite young herself then? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[651] Oh ya. [652] She married at eighteen. [653] So yo , I have enormous respect for anyone who actually |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[654] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[655] through something like |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[656] And so |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[657] that. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[658] she just divorced the second one? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[659] Kind of a ... touchy subject. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[660] Oh right. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[661] He's Phil , the theatrical producer. [662] Got all these smash hits in the West End ... at the moment. [663] But, I don't know what the story is. [664] No one has ever said. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[665] Any more. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[666] On the rare occasion that it comes up she kind of laughs it off and says well it wasn't really a marriage. [667] And just change the subject. [668] So I ... could of been days |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[669] Oh. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[670] literally. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[671] Yeah. [672] So sh |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[673] Well Sir Marquess across the road ... it was his first wife who died of a brain tumour and left him with three daughters, as we know. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[674] Oh really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[675] [...] . [676] But it was almost inevitable. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[677] So where are all the children now? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[678] [tut] . [679] They have one son ... by this alliance and he's the youngest. [680] Ah but they're all ... young adults. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[681] Oh so they all do their own thing? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[682] So the girl that had |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[683] Ah yeah. [684] Ah yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[685] the girl that had cancer |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[686] Mm mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[687] she's alright now? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[688] She's fine. [689] Sasha's great! [690] Works at length. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[691] And are they nice people? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[692] Sasha's lovely. [693] Adorable. [694] Her brother is [...] . |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[695] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[696] But I think that finally [...] . |
| Michael (PS584) |
[697] Use all these potatoes? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[698] We certainly do. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[699] Yes, it that a joke Michael? |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[700] I think he just well ... they've got pots of money between them why should I ever do any work? [701] ... Let them pay for everything, which they do. [702] His daughter's loathe her! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[703] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[704] Although I think the elder one [...] her |
| Rachel (PS582) | [cough] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[705] but the youngest one is really giving her a [...] attack at the moment. [706] She's just ... come out of Saint Mary's [...] ... didn't do as well as she thought, or everybody else hoped she would do in her A levels, so is now retaking one. [707] And she's just ... an evil little so and so! [708] I hate to say that about anybody, but she really is. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[709] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[710] She conspired to be ... disruptive. [711] She's a liar. [712] An out and out liar! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[713] Really? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[714] And I think she's stealing stuff as well. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[715] She's what? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[716] She's got a huge allowance! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[717] She's stealing stuff? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[718] Stealing stuff. [719] From the house. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[720] Does she still live at the home then? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[721] Erm ... officially yeah. [722] But |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[723] You know that ... erm ... these people Chiddyfort where mum and dad are living ... and erm |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[724] Which people [...] ? [725] Oh yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[726] And they had fostered ... a girl ... because they couldn't have any children of their own as far as I know ... and ... and, ah they ... she's a com , a complete horror! [727] I mean, she's only about eighteen ... and she, she hates |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[728] She's got married now though. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[729] she hates the parents. [730] Yeah I know. [731] And even about the wedding dress ... her mother, her mother knew |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[732] But she's calmed down a lot. [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[733] her mother knew, her mother that |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[734] Oh God! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[735] if she, if she admired this dress |
| Michael (PS584) |
[736] That one [...] ? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[737] Thank you very much. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[738] Yes. [739] That she wouldn't say anything so, Dorothy had to actually say ... erm ... well I really don't think you should go for that. [740] That's awful! [741] And the daughter said, right I'll have that one. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[742] But I think they are getting on better now though. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[743] She was such a bitch! [744] Unbelievable! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[745] This just, just looks absolutely wonderful Michael? [746] Look at the little carrots and everything. |

| Gearoid (PS585) |
[820] That could really lower the tone of the evening. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[821] You had your day. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[822] Well I didn't tell you about my ... hot date on Wednesday. |

| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[827] You know I had the choir concert last Saturday? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[828] Mhm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[829] It was at a church in Hertford. [830] ... And we were completely frozen cos the boiler had broken down and we were there at two o'clock to rehearse. [831] And ... I had one rehearsal of two Bach pieces which were really difficult ... and I was com , feeling completely frantic during the break in rehearsal, and went over ... to look at the music ... and some fellow called Don bounded over to me ... and said, oh you can't be ... you know you sh can't be looking at that now, ba, la dee da dee da! [832] He must have heard that I'd come back from ... Ireland. [833] So, he was talking about Ireland, really raving about it and ... his name's Kennedy and ... he's from Liverpool and he likes to think he's got Irish blood in him, he's been there twice this year and |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[834] Mhm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[835] all that. [836] Really enthusing about it. [837] So we were chatting away about that. [838] And then erm ... after the rehearsal ... some of us went off to get a pizza ... before the concert ... and he said to me, erm ... are you interested in going to hear the ... Mozart Requiem, it's on at the Barbican on Wednesday? [839] So I said, yeah! [840] Co , I've always wanted to hear it, and as you know it's our next concert. [841] So erm ... that was fine, until ... after the concert |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[842] Was that a subsidised concert by ... were all the tickets one price or not? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[843] At the Barbican? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[844] I don't know. [845] It was packed! [846] Princess Diana was there. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[847] I know. [848] That's it. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[849] Really. |

[856] All the tickets were |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[857] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[858] one price. [859] I had heard |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[860] What was she wearing? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[861] it was sponsored. [862] I read it in the |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[863] Black and white. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[864] paper and thought [dog barks] ... well that would have been quite nice. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[865] Mm mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[866] Did you go with him? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[867] [...] ... I'll come to that. |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[868] You said yes did anyway. |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[869] I said yes thinking Mozart would be lovely, and not thinking any more of it ... until he stuck to me like a limpet |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[870] for the rest of the ... concert and ... the penny began to drop ... erm ... He said something about the tube station not being the most romantic place to meet ... and I kind of brushed it off by saying well at least we won't get wet there or something. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[871] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[872] And then he said er, I said to him about [dog barks] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[873] I've got to get the last train home. [874] He said don't worry, I have the winter timetable. [875] He's a train spotter. [dog barks] |

[877] I see. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Michael (PS584) |
[880] I think it's better |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[881] Don't! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[882] Alright. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[883] He's tall but |
| Rachel (PS582) | [...] [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[884] he's tall which is great. [885] No problem. [886] He's in his ... well actually probably pushing forty at this stage. [887] But, he's got ... he's got a a big round red face ... and little eyes [dog barks] |

[914] What? [915] Yes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[916] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [clears throat] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[917] Kind of, out like that. [918] Really bizarre! [919] Weird. [920] Peculiar man. [921] He's head of ... er he's senior editor of classics at E M I, so he latched onto this sort of, you know |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[922] Ah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[923] ooh another thing in common, you know ... da da, da da. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[924] And did you |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[925] So erm ... I was feeling a bit edgy about this when we were in the pub after the concert cos I thought maybe he's ... reading things into it and I, you know, I was just going along for the music. [926] So I thought, oh maybe I'm ... reading too much into it. [927] So I met him on Wednesday evening ... Tottenham Court Road tube station ... and er ... chat, chat, chat. [928] He, he talked so much we missed our stop. [929] In a very loud voice! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[930] Did you? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[931] Yes. [932] Erm, and he kept touching me as well which really annoyed me! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[933] Oh oh! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[934] Well, I'm a bit of toucher myself and I, I don't mind if it's friends or family or someone I'm keen on |
| Michael (PS584) |
[935] Oh yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[936] that doesn't bother me, but considering it was only the second I'd spoken to him ... and I did not fancy him in the least ... erm, it really made my skin crawl. [937] And erm ... first couple of times I kind of didn't respond, and the next few times I was literally flinching |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[938] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[939] and moving away, like, hint, hint. [940] But he liked gripped me on the arm and then ... his hand would appear from nowhere during the concert, he like kind of rubbed my arm and are you alright? [941] [...] . Oh it was just a nightmare! [942] I, I know I'm a real bitch saying all this. [943] But, you know ... I think it, I thought it was his ... dingy grey suit to begin with that smelt of moth balls but it, it was his breath. [944] It was, I don't know how it smelt |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[945] of moth balls. [946] And he kept guffaw and going, [cough] |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[947] [laughing] and get this awful blast of moth balls [] ! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[948] Really? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[949] [laughing] It was, it was a complete nightmare [] ! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[950] Oh. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[951] And I, I wasn't prepared |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[952] [laughing] I wasn't prepared for [] ... for it at all |
| Michael (PS584) |
[953] Go on. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[954] because afterwards I, he had his arm round me when we were leaving ... and said oh well, I've really enjoyed this evening, we'll do it again won't we? [955] And I pulled away and I said, well erm ... I so enjoyed the Mozart I've always wanted to hear it. [956] Hint! [957] Hint! [958] I mean what could I do? [959] And then as we approached the tube station the arm around me again and erm ... and he |
| Michael (PS584) |
[960] But was he a fellow choir man as well? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[961] Yes! [962] It's awful you see because it's so |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[963] I would have been, been very rude to him. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[964] But no, but I can't ... couldn't afford to be rude to him, I've only just joined the choir. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[965] Well in future whenever he suggests something ... I think what you've got to do |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[966] There's some in here. [967] Okay? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[968] I've got ... two here. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[969] is never ... you know, join the breaks or whatever ... and just make sure [dog barks] you're not left alone [dog barks] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[970] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[971] you're with other girls. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[972] Well, I'm sorry, he just came on so strong. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[973] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[974] And, so I was forced into lying. [975] I said erm ... I've enjoyed the concert but I'm afraid |
| Michael (PS584) |
[976] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[977] a , er you know, I don't want there to be any. [978] misunderstanding, and he, he said explain. [979] So I had to lie. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[980] Certainly. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[981] and I said erm, I'm going out with someone. [982] Cos I thought he hasn't taken any of my hints so far. [983] Erm, and he said, oh that sort of un , misunderstanding? [984] And then I thought I'd really put my foot in it [laughing] and embarrassed both of us [] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[985] Ha. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[986] [laughing] so [] ... there was silence until we got to the tube station and he said, how long have you been going out with this man? [987] [laughing] Said oh ... I thought oh Becky would laugh if I told her this [] . [988] Well er, January, I think. [989] Mm. [990] Yes, about ten months [laughing] I suppose [] . |

| Gearoid (PS585) |
[997] Oh no! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[998] erm , Strawberry Hill. [999] Blah, blah, blah! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1000] I'm sorry but I just think that is outrageous! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1001] Well I know. [1002] So presumptuous. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1003] Say, because I'm meeting someone that he'd plan out his |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1004] Mm mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1005] his route. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1006] He said, I hope I'm not embarrassing you but I believe in being frank. [1007] Blah, blah. [1008] And then to my horror |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1009] er erm ... we changed to Embankment and he was supposed to go on the district line over to Ealing |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1010] Yes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1011] And I was going down to Waterloo for my train |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1012] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1013] he said erm ... do you mind if I travel to Richmond with you? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1014] Oh! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1015] What could I say? [1016] I mean no was ringing in my ears but I couldn't say that. [1017] I mean, yes, I do mind. [1018] Erm ... so ... we walked in and out of carriages ... as he ... sought a pair of seats together ... and erm ... squashed down, he had me like penned into the window, like I've got my bag and my umbrella in between ha , and I'd already told him I was going out with someone. [1019] He was going like that to my face. [1020] Like, I really felt abused. [dog barks] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1021] I mean at the time |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1022] Ya. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1023] I felt sorry for him but ... I must admit when I got home and the following morning, and since then I've felt quite angry about it. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1024] That's [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1025] The next |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1026] isn't it? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1027] the next time you see the girls in the choir [dog barks] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1028] I'll bet they'll turn round and say [dog barks] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1029] Well I, er, he ca , he was, he was then |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1030] be careful of whatever his name is. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1031] he was then saying erm ... now what about a concert this Friday? [1032] Erm, there's such and such going on. [1033] And there's one er ... a week on Saturday, you know, let's go to both of those and I said erm ... I'm away those weekends. [1034] I said, I'm going away this weekend, I'm going away next weekend |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1035] Yeah, let's not. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1036] and he said erm ... have you got your diary with you? [1037] And I said no. [1038] And he said, hadn't you better check? [1039] And then he said, I don't mean to put pressure on, but I want to get to know you, we've got so much in common and erm ... I want to take you out for dinner, not just go to the concert, but, we don't get to know each other that way. [1040] I'll come down to Richmond and take you out for dinner, how does that sound? [1041] I said, I'll see you at choir. [1042] But we don't get to see each other at the choir [dog barks] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1043] erm, because you don't stay back for a drink afterwards because you're going to Strawberry Hill. [1044] I know it'll be easier when you're in Fulham, blah, blah, blah, but erm ... pressure! [1045] Pressure. [1046] Pressure. [1047] Pressure. [1048] Crowding me in. [1049] And then he said |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1050] Then it's , it's better to have a two-timer from |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1051] then he said I'm lonely. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1052] Marks and Spencers. [dog barks] |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1053] A lot easier to handle. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1054] Sorry Rachel. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1055] And then |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1056] [laughing] No [] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1057] he said that [...] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1058] I did that for your sister's benefit. |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1059] I'm not a loner, I'm lonely. [1060] He said, I haven't had a relationship since nineteen eighty. [1061] I was married for a couple of years in the seventies. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1062] Poor woman |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[1071] Nineteen eighty? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1072] Nineteen eighty. [1073] ... And I said, oh I'm sure there's someone |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1074] You ought to join Dateline or something. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1075] I said I'm there's somewhere out there for you. [1076] And he was obviously ... really furious that [laughing] I'd said that [] . [1077] And I thought, yeah well I know I'd be cross if [laughing] someone said to that me but I don't give a toss actually [] . |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1078] You should suggest that he join |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [cough] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1079] Dateline and ... he sounds awful [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1080] We'll, we'll put him on Blind Date. [1081] Shall we nominate him? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[1084] [laughing] I don't believe [...] [] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1085] Thursday night I was living in dread of the choir. [1086] And I trundling along the district line to the Embankment across to Sloane Square ... and then hello, hello, I didn't expect to see you here. [1087] Oh oh! [1088] I never met anyone on the tube before from choir. [1089] And I'm sure my face was a picture. [1090] I was just |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1091] appalled! |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1092] [laughing] I was just thinking about what a horrendous evening it had been the night before and then he [] |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1093] [laughing] confronted me [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1094] with his awful beard and everything. [1095] Oh I dunno. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1096] Is there anyone in |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1097] And I had |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1098] the choir that lives near you, or ... sca , can travel with you? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1099] Actually there's Paul, the guy who'd given me a lift to the concert and, and he mentioned going to the ... [tut] , the film I saw, erm ... but I knew he was going to the pub, he always goes to the pub afterwards. [1100] So I pa , I told one girl in the choir what had happened, and I think to begin |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1101] And what did she say? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1102] with she thought I was overreacting cos she didn't really ... respond. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1103] Is she married or what? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1104] And then , she is married. [1105] Er erm ... and then later on I, I, I think maybe she did realize, you know, cos I said ... I wasn't prepared for that and that hasn't happened before. [1106] I didn't want to think, her to think that I was a show-off, you know |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1107] Yes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1108] oh I have fun with men all the time, chasing them and that. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1109] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1110] In my dreams! [1111] And ... er er |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1112] she, she said to me on the way o , er as I was ... I said look I'm going to ... scoot now and she said well I hope you don't get any unwanted company on the way back. [1113] And I really felt on edge walking back to |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1114] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1115] the tube station cos I expected him to spring out |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1116] Well, that's my point you see. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1117] from erm, an alleyway or |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1118] But that man does live near you that can give you a lift. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1119] I know, but then I, I'd have |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1120] Yeah but you'd also have |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1121] to endure the pub with ... the other ... with Don. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1122] I know. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1123] Well I think the next time you just ... I mean, go home ... by yourself next time, you know ... if there was a [...] ... I think you've got to make a point of ... of ... you know, not being alone with |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1124] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1125] somebody like that around. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1126] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1127] He's obviously obsessive. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1128] Mm! |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1129] He's not listened to a word you've said. [dog barks] |
| Rachel (PS582) |

| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1136] Stop! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1137] there may well be someone in, in the wings but that's irrelevant to me. [1138] I'll ignore that, I'm in with a chance. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1139] . |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1140] I think if you feel like that |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1141] Well there's no way, no way of there being |

[1153] He's not going to get you kicked out of the choir. [1154] If anything, he should be kicked out if he's like that. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1155] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1156] Any new girl that comes along is gonna get him leching after her. |

[1261] Christine said. [1262] Thank God he doesn't know where she lives here cos he'll be round knocking on the door. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1263] I know, but the appalling thing is ... that the address list was given out ... at the A G M ... and Christine's phone number is on it. [1264] Cos Rachel rang me at work and said I need your phone number. [1265] I've been fobbing her off saying, I haven't got anywhere permanent. [1266] She said, I need your home number. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1267] Well you'll just have to change it when you leave. [1268] Give them, give them Hazlemere number or something. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1269] Isn't that too far? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1270] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1271] Sorry er i |
| Rachel (PS582) | [clears throat] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1272] but who was that, who was that list handed round to? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1273] To everyone in the choir ... presumably. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1274] Oh that's dreadful! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1275] Oh God! [1276] So you ... really |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1277] Don't you |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1278] tell Christine that. [1279] Cos she actually said to me, thank God ... we're not gonna have him bothering us. [1280] Well I thought |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1281] Don't erm |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1282] I'll have to say I'm Rachel because our voices sound the same. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1283] Yeah well just don't let Christine know. [1284] Just |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1285] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1286] just say that |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1287] Don't erm ... that's very bazaar don't you |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1288] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1289] think? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1290] I think, I think that's, I |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1291] Phone numbers handed out. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1292] no I don't think that's on. [1293] Because if you had, I don't think Christine's even got her number in the book. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1294] He's got my work number. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1295] So that's issuing someone's number. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1296] Oh yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1297] You know |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1298] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1299] An ex-directory one. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1300] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1301] I mean it's one thing letting the committee know for their records or something. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1302] Don't tell them you have one. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1303] But not just for the |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1304] Well that's it, I gave it |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1305] Just say you don't have the telephone. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1306] out. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1307] Mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1308] Yes, but when you move to Fulham. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1309] Oh! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1310] I've just moved into a new flat, I don't have a telephone. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1311] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1312] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1313] And stick to it. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1314] Yes. [1315] And say the other one isn't valid now. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1316] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1317] Well just give your work number. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1318] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1319] I think that's fine if you give them your work number. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1320] That's what |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1321] Yes but what about work? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1322] I've given. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1323] I mean you're there five days a week. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1324] I know that's what I've given. [1325] Mm mm. [1326] I'm delaying you now am I? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1327] You're not. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1328] I thought that meal was so delicious! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1329] Mm mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1330] This gravy is delicious as well! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1331] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1332] Do you like it? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1333] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1334] Took me ... thirty seconds to make that gravy. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1335] So what's that made out of? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1336] Booze. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1337] I chose the booze |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1338] And has it got alcohol in it? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1339] It has. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1340] I wondered whether it had. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1341] Erm ... it's made from ... Bisto, this instant |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1342] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1343] granules. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1344] You'd never believe that would you? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1345] No. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1346] Chicken variety. [1347] With |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1348] Oh right. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1349] er two tablespoons of Madeira |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1350] Oh lovely! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1351] Lovely! |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1352] and some ... redcurrant and port jelly. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1353] Mm mm! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1354] Mm. [1355] It's absolutely delicious! |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1356] Well [...] ... we've nothing to mop it up with. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1357] Dab it behind the ears. |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1358] I'm gonna get Yum Yum to clear mine off. |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [laugh] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1359] It's good that bottle of gravy. [1360] You'd never know it. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1361] No that's great. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1362] Little trick I learnt years |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1363] Cos that's nice. [1364] Chris does one actually. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1365] years and years and years ago. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1366] Mm mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1367] And you can vary it though, if you're having lamb by putting some mint jelly. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1368] Delicious! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1369] Well I certainly wouldn't worry about being rude to that ... to Don the train spotter. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1370] No, I think there's some people you have to be very blunt to. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1371] Donald . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1372] Mm. [1373] Don . |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1374] He's, he's an obsessive person. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1375] I think his mummy and daddy were poor. [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1376] Did he tell you? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1377] being a train spotter. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1378] Who? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1379] You did. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1380] Who? [1381] No, I thought, I thought you meant you'd spoken to him after my date. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1382] No, [laughing] they were on [...] before you went on your date [] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1383] [laughing] Left mine afterwards [] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1384] Mm mm. [1385] No he's very odd. [1386] Cos I did |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1387] Does he friends within the choir? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1388] I did more or less ignore on the tube journey and the walk to the choir that evening, I mean |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1389] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1390] I'm very aware of |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1391] Not encouraging him. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1392] Yes. [1393] So, I I didn't er, I didn't instigate a conversation at all. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1394] But it sounds as though he doesn't realize that. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1395] I didn't ask him whether he got back |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1396] But some people are so |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1397] alright, I didn't ... I answered ... in monosyllables. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1398] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1399] I didn't instigate a conversation. [1400] And then I ran out after the |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1401] But he probably couldn't believe his luck that he was going out with you that night. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1402] He said I couldn't believe you said |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1403] I mean what happened erm |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1404] yes straightaway. [1405] I was thinking |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1406] How's that? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1407] that's because of the Mozart, not you. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1408] In highlighted pen that you know ... so when he goes out with someone in ninete , in two thousand he'll say to someone ... the last time I went out with someone was in nineteen ninety three. [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1409] It's sad isn't it? [1410] But I felt sorry for him, I did, but that was my immediate reaction that |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1411] Has he got a good voice? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1412] Yes. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1413] He's a good singer? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1414] Mm. [1415] He is. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1416] Well he's obviously musical if he's ... involved in E M I as well. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1417] Mm mm. [1418] But he can be, he's very, perhaps a bit bossy in it, and erm ... may, maybe bitter I feel. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1419] Doesn't have a very good sense of humour. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1420] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1421] I don't think anybody should go out with someone on their own ... in the beginning, I really don't. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1422] Do you not, Gearoid. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1423] No. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1424] Not nowadays. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1425] I don't care what anybody says. [1426] Whether it's two |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1427] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1428] guys ... or two women |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1429] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1430] or anything, I really don't think anyone ... should put themselves in that position. [1431] You're better off going out as a threesome or a foursome |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1432] Yeah. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1433] Yeah but if you get asked out |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1434] but until you |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1435] for a date, you're not going to say can I bring my friend? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1436] By a total stranger? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1437] Well I suppose I wouldn't do that with a total stranger. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1438] She did. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1439] I know, but a stra , what do you mean, what do you classify as a stranger? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1440] Someone you don't know |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1441] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1442] anything about. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1443] I know that they're they're |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1444] Because I go out |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1445] they're involved in the ca |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1446] if |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1447] in the, erm the choir. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1448] Just because you work with the guy |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1449] But you've never had a conversation with him. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1450] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1451] Just because you know the guy from Marks and Spencers. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1452] I did that with Graham. [1453] I went out, I hadn't even ... I'd said hello to him, that was it. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1454] You see, I think that's really strange ... in this day and age. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1455] Yes but you're meeting in a public place. [1456] Not like, I mean I was making my way there, he was making his way there ... and ... I wouldn't want them to come and pick me up in the car |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1457] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1458] and me go off, I wouldn't do that ... without really ... you know, having been out with him a few times. [1459] But I'd make |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1460] Good. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1461] my own way there and meet them. [1462] In a public place. [1463] ... But if I met, but then that's slightly different because if I met someone in a ... nightclub or ... something like that ... then I would be quite wary. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1464] Mm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1465] I don't think I'd ... I don't know ... I don't know what I'd do. [1466] I'd feel quite differently. [1467] But something like the choir or where you've been working, I don't know you, I, I've got this thing which is |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1468] Well I still |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1469] I think |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1470] think |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1471] you, you know you feel safe [...] . |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1472] that even in something like the choir ... it's somebody that you should of struck up a, er a relationship ... you know, over several |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1473] The |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1474] intervals. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1475] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1476] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1477] Yeah. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1478] And you suddenly, you thought to yourself ... well ... you know I actually quite like this chap. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1479] Mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1480] You know, wouldn't it be nice if he had asked me out. [1481] And then suddenly the day |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1482] Mm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1483] comes along. [1484] Not to sort of well you, you can't be blamed because I mean ... yo , in the innocent you were actually going because of the concert. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1485] I know. [1486] You see I ne |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1487] But he didn't , you know, he, he can't believe his luck that somebody |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1488] No. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1489] as attractive as you |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1490] said yes [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1491] he's got this goat beard and this hairy bottom lip! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1492] You know, breathe that smells of moth balls, I mean who would have thought of that. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1493] And he, and |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1494] If he were taking several of you out why didn't you say to one of the other girls ... why don't you come? [1495] Did he have a pair of tickets? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1496] Cos it was when we were walking down |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1497] Michael can I have a look please? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1498] Oh [laughing] sorry [] ! |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1499] Thank you. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |

| Michael (PS584) |
[1503] My darling would you pass me |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1504] Can I have some more milk? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1505] Lovely. [1506] Thank you |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[1511] These are the ones that I saw on the [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1512] Yes but you've got those brown ones that Paula gave you. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1513] I know, but I don't wear brown. [1514] Which is why [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1515] I think it's lovely though with black. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |

[1517] Yes. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1518] smart aren't they? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1519] Well who gave you, did you like Rachel's nice jacket? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |

[1527] Yeah. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |

| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1529] You look very dressy aren't you? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1530] May I ... start my chocolate? |
| Rachel (PS582) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1531] Absolutely. [1532] ... Don't ... don't dribble it. [1533] [laugh] ... Yes. [1534] Put it round this way. |

| Michael (PS584) |
[1625] It is on. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |

[1638] Five cheesies to one slurp of drink. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1639] Hmm mm. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1640] Why is it pure gin? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1641] I think Ted would be proud of me. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1642] Well, my stars say ... [reading] if you find yourself at a low ebb this weekend don't worry. [1643] Every so often we all need to wind down. [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1644] There you are. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1645] [reading] If your a little numb, cynical, or apathetic it's probably a healthy sign. [1646] It simply means you're in the process of recharging your batteries and reassessing your priorities [] . |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1647] Well Anna-Marie is there something you want to tell us? |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] |

| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1650] Mm. [1651] ... [reading] Market forces do not make the world go round. [1652] The earth does not spin on its axis for profit, the sun does not shine because it happens to have shares in a household firm. [1653] If any force guides the universe, universe, it surely must be love. [1654] In allowing yourself to be led now by the same illogical but kind motive, you are not being as silly as you think. [1655] Indeed, the more selfless you can be this weekend, the better things will work out [] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1656] Oh how nice. [1657] [laughing] That sounds good to me [] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] |

[1660] [reading] It doesn't make sense to buy the cheapest brand of baked beans to save a few pence. [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1661] It's true. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1662] [reading] So then fill your car tank at the most expensive petrol station [laughing] in town. [] [] |
| Michael (PS584) | [laugh] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1663] [reading] [laughing] If you're going to make economies [] , make efficient ones. [1664] Similarly, if you are going to be extravagant, be so in an a area, [laughing] where you're actually going to see the benefit [] [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1665] So you see |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1666] Ha |
| Gearoid (PS585) |

[1676] [reading] Expect a hectic weekend. [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1677] Hmm mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1678] [reading] You will have to spend a lot of time preventing tricky scenarios from getting any worse or keeping antagonistic individuals apart. [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) | [laugh] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[1679] [laughing] Who was that [] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1680] [reading] [laughing] Simultaneously, you may be fending off [] criticism from a friend or relative who feels [] |

[1681] Ah oh! [1682] Aha. [1683] Yes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1684] [reading] who feels your , [laughing] your plans [] are not in their best interest. [] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[1685] Well |

[1686] So naff off! |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [laugh] |

[1689] That's Gearoid for you. |

| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1718] [laughing] You're joking [] ? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[1719] They interviewed, interview you to get on there anyway. [1720] The one thing that really,apar , well not the one thing, many things irritate me about the programme, but one of them is ... that they ... get people on so you've got someone choosing who lives in Edinburgh ... choosing someone who lives down in Plymouth |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[1721] Mm mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |

[2477] I haven't read either of them. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |

| Michael (PS584) |
[2485] How much teaching practice do you have to do? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2486] I've got odd days and then a six week block. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2487] And do you know where you're having that teaching practice? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2488] Mm in Guildford. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2489] Oh that's right, you said yes. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2490] It's next door to my old middle school, it's where a lot of my friends went. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2491] Are any of your friends teaching? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2492] There? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2493] Or in the teaching profession [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2494] No. ... |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2495] Will you be a good teacher? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2496] Pardon? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2497] Will you be a good teacher? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2498] Oh I don't know. [2499] ... Who knows. [2500] I think it's in the blood though isn't it with our family. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2501] Yeah there's a lot of teachers [...] . |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2502] [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2503] Yes and erm [...] side as well. [2504] Daddy's side has got his cousins, two of his cousins are teachers, his sister's a teacher. [2505] Apparently his mother taught, that's how she met [...] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2506] I don't know if I'd want to stay in teaching, I'd quite like to have my own nursery school. [2507] But what I'd do is I'd I'd do it from hours something like eight until six and I'd give them a cooked lunch all fresh food |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2508] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2509] and after say three o'clock in the afternoon they'd do activities, work connected with |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2510] School. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2511] school. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2512] Joy-riding, mugging. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2513] Yes. [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2514] [laughing] Yes. [] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2515] [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2516] If you g if you attend a nursery school, you're less likely to fall into criminal ways than if you haven't attended a nursery school. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2517] Why's that? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2518] I've never heard that before. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2519] It's a fact. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2520] [...] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2521] It's according to satist to statistics and studies carried out. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2522] But what's the reasoning behind that. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2523] The reasoning behind that is that [...] come from a lower class generally if you can't you know you can't go to a nursery school cos you have to pay for nursery school education in this country. [2524] And ... you don't actually start learning how to how to structure and do things in your leisure time. [2525] Cos at nursery school it's basically it is leisure. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2526] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2527] Pursuits that you're doing. [2528] You see if you if you haven't been introduced to those when you're young. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2529] At an early age. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2530] It's actually and that's the most absorbent time, your mind's most absorbent where you're up to the age of five which is when you should when you're at nursery school. [2531] And if you come from a family that don't bother and they haven't got the time to ... show you how to do things, or do things with you, and don't send you to a nursery school then you start you know just I suppose like what they do is [...] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2532] Well I think the attitude is and maybe I'm totally wrong [...] the attitude is that if they're outside, they're not creating mess and havoc in the house. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2533] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2534] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2535] [...] sort of turn a blind eye. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2536] Mm. ... |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2537] You don't remember |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2538] When we were out for lunch a few weeks ago, Alan asked where I was brought up and I said [...] popped out on stalks [...] two brothers had gone to school at [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2539] What were their names? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2540] [...] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2541] I can't say I remember that one. |
| Michael (PS584) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2542] And I'm afraid I don't know the other brother's name. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2543] I think you'd be inclined to remember that name. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2544] Well I was little red riding hood |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2545] I know. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2546] in our production. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2547] I would have thought that would have been your cup of tea. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2548] [...] . [2549] ... I found it very inaccessible. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2550] Sorry. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2551] Very inaccessible [...] it seemed to me. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2552] Well you have to travel by car to the station. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2553] Oh it seemed to be a terrible drive. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2554] Well you just turn off the A three at instead of. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2555] We just weren't used to driving in the country then, it seemed like a long way from |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2556] So we're down to Guildford but not through Guildford. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2557] No not Guildford, you carry on the A three |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2558] Further on. [2559] Much further on. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2560] Further on. [2561] Much further on. [2562] And you instead of taking the instead of going as far as the [...] traffic lights to come to us, you take the [...] exit before that which is |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2563] Mm. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2564] and you just go down through there and you come into [...] . [2565] It's not I wouldn't say |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2566] [...] very very [...] . |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2567] Mm. [2568] But to go to and to go to I would have thought would have taken similar lengths of time. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2569] Yeah. [2570] I remember the [...] . |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2571] Poplars it was called was it? [...] |

[2582] You could actually do these yourselves. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2583] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2584] You can grow them from seed. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2585] There's a [...] to be made in developing a teapot that doesn't drip. |
| Rachel (PS582) |

[2596] What was life like for us? [2597] [laugh] Erm [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) | [...] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[2611] Really you've noticed the difference? |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2612] We're spending the money now on the cottage and things like that but it just makes it just makes you think what we were frittering away. |

| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[2808] She didn't look that young. |

[2810] Yes she's in her twenties. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2811] No. |

| Michael (PS584) |
[2820] I think there is. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2821] She looks a lot older than that. [2822] So do you have quite a few famous connections round here? [2823] Did that guy live round here then? |

[2824] No. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2825] No, Yorkshire [...] . |

| Michael (PS584) |
[2831] way of life. [2832] [...] rustic Yorkshire [...] . [2833] And while he was on the film set or wherever he was you know, away from home for the week, he'd be playing around with every bit of skirt he could find. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2834] But I think she's doing a good job of bringing Thomas up I must say. [...] . |
| Gearoid (PS585) |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[2836] Good. |

[2837] [...] which is good. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2838] [...] it's young for her I mean |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2839] And she's got him into a very good er nursery school apparently. [2840] Somewhere in Blackheath. [2841] Erm which is close to where she's goes to school. [2842] It's costing her a lot of money. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2843] Oh she doesn't live down here? |
| Michael (PS584) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2844] Oh right. |

| Rachel (PS582) |
[2848] What does she do then? |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2849] Eighteen or twenty thousand a year as a teacher. [2850] Plus single mother's benefit. [2851] She's not exactly destitute. ... |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2852] [...] mortgage as well Gearoid. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2853] [...] paying the mortgage. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2854] I'm sure she is. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2855] I was thinking it [...] another room [...] bigger. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2856] It's it's about half the size again. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2857] If you if you did get [...] how would how would |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2858] We'd have to keep |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2859] you do it? |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2860] We'd have to keep the outside as is, it would always have to have two front doors. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2861] Mm. |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2862] But that's no bad thing, if you ever wanted to sell it. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2863] Erm |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2864] [...] . |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2865] Just knock through here. [2866] I mean the whole thing would have to be redesigned. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2867] So you wouldn't knock upstairs cos you'd have two staircases wouldn't you? |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2868] I quite like that actually. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2869] Sally has two staircases. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2870] It's not unusual. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2871] What yo you would have to do a a lot of remodelling downstairs because t there's no point having two kitchens. [2872] But if we had the accommodation downstairs, you we could ea easily have a good sitting room that we never use. [2873] Have it there for show. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2874] [laugh] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2875] Is that the way they've done it or |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2876] It is very ... [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2877] What does that what do you what do you mean? [2878] Their furniture their furnishings. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2879] It's very white [...] . |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2880] Oh is it. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2881] Yeah it's all it's very stark. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2882] So it's not kind of country cottage style. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2883] No she has a couple of nice pieces though. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2884] Erm wi if you had the accommodation of both houses downstairs, you'd have you'd easily have a good size sitting room. [2885] You'd have a d a separate dining room. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2886] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2887] You'd then maybe have like a little library [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2888] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2889] And and a good size kitchen breakfast room. [2890] You'd actually have quite a lot of accommodation downstairs. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2891] Mm and four bedrooms. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2892] And four bedrooms. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2893] You see we'd get rid rid of one bathroom, in fact I'd maybe be tempted to put a bathroom upstairs [...] . [2894] ... It could be en suite. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2895] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2896] With like a dressing room [...] . |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2897] [...] isn't there. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2898] Well er I mean eventually we'd have to think of something [...] . [2899] But it it's if we don't have that opportunity with next door then [...] some years down the line [...] . |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2900] But would you consider touring erm retiring here? [2901] I know it's a long way off but you mentioned retirement yesterday. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2902] You taking early retirement? |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2903] All your secrets. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [laugh] [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2904] I've no interest in work. [2905] I loathe work. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2906] Mm. |

| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2909] [...] if you can retire at fifty. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2910] Well we'd have to divest ourselves of some of our assets. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2911] I also think there's no point retiring at sixty five you know, aged and decrepit. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2912] Mm. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2913] Probably incontinent and [...] you know whatever |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2914] Mm mm. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2915] And then you start thinking well you know now I'll see the world. [2916] What's the point? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2917] Yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2918] I mean you want to see the world when you you know when you're fit and able. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2919] Mm yeah. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2920] And do the things you can. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2921] [...] two years isn't he and he can retire early. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2922] He'll be about fifty seven. |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2923] [...] he could still do work, I mean he could still [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2924] I think he'd want to have some kind of little business going where if he wants to he can go off [...] And then he can go off and pick it up and |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Anne-Marie (PS583) |
[2925] And he does like to travel. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2926] I know he is thinking of going to France [...] . |
| Michael (PS584) |
[2927] Whereabouts? |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2928] In the middle really isn't it? [2929] He doesn't want to go too far down to the South. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2930] In [...] an hour north east of Paris, going towards Belgium. |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2931] No I think that's too north isn't it. |
| Gearoid (PS585) |
[2932] Yeah. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
| Rachel (PS582) |
[2933] Yeah because our uncle also wants to [...] so they didn't know whether they should all go and get [...] or whatever I don't know. [2934] But mummy's not very keen. [2935] She wants to be near us. [2936] She wants us to settle down and then she knows where she w where she should be. [2937] And then she can go off. |
| Unknown speaker (KPUPSUNK) | [...] |
