So dad worked most of his – like he worked with my grandpa farming until I was kind of like five or six that had farms like on the outskirts of Melbourne, like cattle farms and market garden.

And then –

Dad got out of farming and he was doing irrigation.

So putting in like big, large level sprinkler systems and, you know, basically just digging.

It was just in the dirt all day, like digging the hole in pipes and stuff.

So dad was like, you know, he's driving a ute.

He's always outside loading the ute up with, you know, tools and diggers and pipes out of the shed.

And like dad had big jobs going on.

And so...

you know, and I've always just wanted to make people laugh.

I don't know where that comes from, but I've just always thought that, you know, I'm always just in any situation looking for what's the funniest thing that could happen here.

So I'm trying to make dad laugh.

He's not in the mood, but I know it's in there somewhere.

I'm going to find it.

Basically just try to like needle it out of him the whole time.

And so then if I did crack him, I was like, yeah, great.

This is good.

I'm, I'm, I'm getting to him.

And so it's not like he didn't want to have fun, but he was just busy doing other shit.

But seriously with his work.
