EP:92 - Moneypenny

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Travesties, Moneypenny and Signs.

A few weeks ago, or whenever it actually was, I went out for St Patrick's day. Of course I had a Guinness, because that’s a legal requirement, but I saw something that is a crime against the thick frothiness that is a Guinness. If you know how a Guinness is poured, its a bit of a process, first you pour ¾ of it, then wait for it to ‘settle’ then top it off, well what I saw that night was the ‘topping off’ being done by a beer! Not more Guinness, I wanted to ask the person who got the drink what the heck it was about, but they were with a group of other people. You know how it is…..

I had a slight run in with a lady who had an infamous name, that name is, Moneypenny! Miss or Mrs Moneypenny! Either way, Moneypenny exists outside the world of Bond and in my town. Who’d of thought is, not me that’s for sure.

Lastly, I saw a guy reverse into a sign, and just drive off. The guy was reversing out of their driveway and opposite there was a sign that had something like ‘Event in Progress’ on it, it was just a temporary sign. But the reverser, just hit it and then drove off. I guess given that their vehicle was a ‘work car’ (it had business branding all over it) they probably didn’t care if it had damage on it!

EP:91 - Locked Out

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Monitors, Locked Out, Tools.

Computer monitors, what a thing they are, they make computers useful! Just last week, ours went up the snuff, great. Luckily I was able to hook up the TV as a quick short term fix, I was also lucky to be able to get a good replacement via the evolution of ‘click and collect’ not knowing how stock is and all that jazz. I think a new computer is in order next though.

Over the weekend, I made the wild decision to go for a ride on meh bike, however, as I left the house I didn’t have my drink bottle with me. Pretty much instantly I also realised I didn’t have my key with me ether, total disaster! But thankfully (I guess) our house has a ‘trick’ you can use to get inside, to which I pulled and got inside, after pulling some ‘mission impossible’ moves!

People mouthing off are complete goons, or in this case ‘tools’, also over the weekend I was just going for a slow ride in the evening, and as I was going around a corner near a set of traffic lights, I have some snoozer say ‘licence and registration thanks’ now if I had my licence on me I probably would of stopped to show them. I wonder how that would of gone down?

EP:90 - Christmas Lights

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Network Outages, Jobs and Christmas Lights.

On Tuesday this week, someone cut the cable! Yes, my state has a interconnector that runs from us to mainland Straya. The cable’s (I think there is three all up) supply electricity and internet/phone services. But, on Tuesday some cowboy on the ‘big island’ damaged one of the cables doing civil works, as a result for about 6-7ish hours there was no landline or mobile phone service, and also no internet! But, shockingly despite not having a connection, the sky didn’t fall in….

I’ve managed to con someone into giving me a job! And it’s at a bike shop! Hype. Longevity, is subject to my passing the standard 3 month probation period, but hopefully I can manage that and if I do, I might treat myself to a delicious new bike.

Christmas lights, I shouldn't be talking about them in early March, jet I am. Some houses near me STILL have them up and on during the evening/nights. I’m not into this, it’s ok to keep them up, but don't turn them on until December!

EP:89 - Best Friend

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Best Friend’s, Camel’s and Dates.

So, one of my best friends! Has given me the ‘label’ or ‘title’ im not sure what to use here, of their ‘Best Friend’ and I feel that’s a big call, maybe even a captains call. At the time I wasn’t into it, and that I felt that I probably need to be doing more, for them to be able to handle that title. I’m not sure I’ve ever actually given someone personally the title of being my bestie. I’ve got a top three, and they sort of change around a little depending on what’s been going on etc. But yeah, I’m someones best friend, and its on the internet so it must be true!!!!

I saw a Camel, umm, I’m not sure where else to take this. When I initially saw it I did a triple take to make sure I was seeing what I thought I was seeing. Luckily for me I was with some other people who also saw the Camel, so I know im not crazy…..

In recent times I’ve been doing some Archaeology work, it’s interesting stuff. And when it comes to ageing finds it can be tricky, but luckily ‘The Boss’ has an encyclopedia of makers marks, for old porcelain and china. That means depending on the mark and if it’s fully intact, you can date something right to the day of manufacture!

EP:88 - Scoot

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Scooters, 22 and Bouldering.

Just before Christmas, my city started a e-scooter trial, and I’ve had two people say to me that I need to talk about them on the show. That said, I dont really have much to say about them, I’ve not used one and I don’t really need to. However, I may go and try one just for the sake of it.

Secondly, I just chat about a few things I have on my ‘Stuff for 22’ list, it mainly contains visiting places around where I live, places that are stupidly close to where I live, but have just never gone too. One big ticket item though is to get a Hammock!

Earlier in the week, two of my friends had their birthday, so they decided that the ‘friend group’ should go Bouldering/Indoor rock climbing. I’ve not done this before, but it was rather challenging and enjoyable, I also took my action cam with me, so keep an eye out on the Vlog channel for a video soon.

EP:85 - Record Update

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Record Update, Tractors and Meetings.

So my record has arrived! After being told the other week by the retailer, that they didn’t know when it was going to be here, I’ve now got it! I bet it was all a con, and they had it all the time the scoundrels…

What’s the most ‘unusual’ thing you’ve been a passenger in? I had a slightly novel experience recently, where I was a passenger in a tractor that got driven through town! My brother who does some tractor work had a hay bailing job one weekend, so I went for a ride. However, we had to drive the tractor across town to get where the job was!

Lastly, I waffle about a meeting I had a week or so ago, not much to report on that really. I was unsure what I wanted to get out of it, but I think it was positive, but without immediate action. However, a future ‘call to action’ was tabled, so that’s something I guess!

EP:84 - Diggs

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Plates, Digs and Records.

Have you ever had something ‘explode’ in your hands? Well in my first story, if I could even call it a story. I talk about holding a plate and having it break in half, maybe I’ve got some sort of ‘zen’ power!!

Have you ever done a job, that’s interesting, but not exciting? I think this would be a fair assessment of an Archaeology dig I helped out on recently. Basically we were digging 50×50cm square pits, to a depth of ‘that cant go any further’ Interesting, unexciting, but a good workplace.

ABBA, have a new album out. So I thought because I’m a mildly good son, I’d get it for my mothers Christmas gift. However, despite it having an ‘arrival’ date of November 5th, and it being ‘available’ online from the retailer, it’s not here yet. I received a call from the retailer a few days ago, basically saying they don't have it and they don't know when they’ll get supply. Thanks for that…..

EP:83 - Disappeared

On this Episode of Luke Who’s Talking I’m going to talk about, Reaction Videos, Red Heels and Disappearances.

Do you like ‘Reaction Videos’ because, shocker, I think they’re a bit lame. Firstly why would you want to watch someone watching something? And secondly it shows how sheltered some people are, in regards to the rest of the world. Not much more to say on that!

Do you sometimes wear clothes that are not ‘associated’ to your gender? On a recent trip to Target, I observed a guy wearing a pair of saucy red heels! Like not a stiletto situation, but a heeled ‘woman's’ shoe. Cowboy boots have a heel so who cares!, but the noise, why so clunky. Is that the word I want to use, I guess it is because I have….

I was riding my Mountain Bike around a bit of parkland the other day, there is various tracks and dog areas at this particular location. Anyway, I was coming up behind someone who was walking, and as I overtook them I ‘scared’ them a little. After I apologised for doing so, I decided I should go back and have a bit more of a chat with said person, so I did a quick loop back to near where it all went down. The person however, was literally nowhere to be see, they’d completely disappeared and im at a total loss at to where exactly. That got me thinking, did that person only exist for the sole purpose of that chance encounter, and the universe took them away after I decided I wanted more interaction? Or most likely im completely overthinking it…..
