I'm telling you now. Guys, as you get older, the amount of time you get to spend with your guy this is a real genuine male issue. The amount of time you get to spend with your guy mates diminishes as you get better. Exponentially. Absolutely. As, you know, the responsibilities of life take over. I just until the breath runs out of my body, I will always be excited about sitting on the train, heading off somewhere with my mates, and at 09:30 in the morning, the first crack of the tier good, there is no way that that is never no exciting. Yeah. The thrill of it, the lack of responsibility of it for just those few short hours, the world is yours to go and attain and achieve and be excited by. You only live once good go and get it, and I love it. I love that. Would you like to go on and and and Yeah. Let's go now.
