prob'ly a couple o' times but uh never quite close enough
Mark McMahon a replay of the gold-medal event at the Commonwealth Games in Auckland
And again a good game
Here's a great reply by Trevor Morris
He takes the score to two Trevor Morris three
Short and narrow
Well Paul Lyneham what've you got
And uh not only are th- are they going to hold Dennyson they're going to they have already won Franklin and Lions and I think I'd probably give them Bass as well
Let's have a close look at those now
A L P gains Franklin
Are you prepared to claim at this stage
But with forty-two per cent of the vote counted where there's almost a swing of eleven percent towards us
A swing of nearly eleven per cent
And you're not prepared to claim it
What's happening there Paul
The computer says A L P gains uh Lions
This is not the result you were looking forward to
not sure when I should smile or not
Did the last few days of the campaign tell you anything
And that's how it's turning out in Tasmania
A very tight contest could quite easily on these figures go to Labor
What's happening there
Now apparently in Coalition hands
And that's how it's showing up for the Labor Party
And this is the state-wide swing a swing to the A L P at seven point two per cent
Andrew Peacock uh this is not what what you wanted to be seeing at this early stage of the night obviously
And I think the longer face will be on Gareth uh when you move up the country to Queensland and then across to Western Australia and South Australia
And I don't yet
But uh we did anticipate if we were going to lose some it could be in Tasmania
It is a strong start to the Labor isn't it
These are real swings and after nearly twenty per cent of the vote is counted you've got uh nearly six per cent swing to Labor there which is well and truly enough to win the seat
What's happening over there
She she was freezing when she came to Canberra
You must've done typing and shorthand or something did you
both of them
It's too much
I went to a few lectures in the evening and people had their kids there
long as they keep quiet I think
In the library it'd be alright wouldn't it
So you have no children so
um you know by the time you organise that and run and take her there and come back and pay it and
I mean here
I don't know
the enrolment period
So it's all
Aren't they rude
worked for that
What did you do in your in your holidays
Um I was practising most of the time 'cause ah,
What your band
So do you actually get paid or anything
Are you intend to um to making a album
Have you seen them at all
We're making one of them by ourselves with our own money
How much does it cost
The idea is that you know we sort of ah taken a bit of a a bet on ourselves you know
Oh a bet
We've gambled on ourselves 'cause you know we've sort of like gone into huge debt and um
What what debt
five thousand dollars debt
Oh for that C D
We've probably spent about probably by the end of the year we've probably spent seven or eight grand so
But if you play in clubs and all that you'll make the money
To play in clubs you have to either be playing covers like old songs
Yeah stuff that everyone knows really well so they can go along and get pissed and
If a record company likes it they might say oh well you know
What instr what instrument do you play
Do you play anything else
Yeah yeah I've played I I've played guitar for years and I've played the bass guitar in a band
How about trumpet
the cliffs out there out near the ocean and to practice all night
You don't have enough stamina
And this bloody university keeps getting in the road
You can get you know for instance you can get guitars you know for a couple of hundred dollars up to you know a good one's two three grand and then you can get really really expensive ones that are like ten grand fifteen twenty grand but it
A piano a piano's worth about probably ten thousand dollars
There's probably still pianos that are worth a hundred thousand or something
fun and games
use that use that word right
You know the right way
Do do they use it you know o k situation
Are you sort of saying music's a funny game
You know people say think positively you know
and like you say
It's just um just to to sort of lighten the load really
No I understand it's Australian language slang
It's one of dad's expressions really
Fun and games
Gee I don't know whether it's
A driver's licence
You never got around to it
I mean I wanted well it's a combination of never got around to it and never had the money 'cause you know I've always mostly been on the dole or at uni and and you know you don't often have a a a cheque where you've got a hundred dollars spare to go and do it
Have you ever tried getting you know
too far away
But you know I mean round the city you don't need it
Yeah there's public everywhere
I mean I've always travelled you know
It's it's very hard to find a parking spot in the city
It's not important
But you you could live you know out in the country in the middle of nowhere
Yeah well you can sort of um,

prob'ly a couple o' times but uh never quite close enough
