0:00.0	Okay, folks, you are listening to Life on Planet Porky.
0:25.9	I'm delighted to welcome you back into the stratosphere of myself, the Portmeister,
0:31.7	and of course, my colleague, my friend, and Rochick writer extraordinaire, Ms. Lesley Leslie Ann Jones Leslie Ann, how are you?
0:40.4	I'm good and it's good to be here, Michael. How are you? Very well indeed. And, you know,
0:45.3	I've got a bit of a throat this morning, Leslie. I haven't been doing a bit of television. How is my
0:49.1	voice sounding? It sounds quite husky, quite sort of sexy. Yeah, yeah. Are, are you trying this out on me because you're trying to pull some bird?

1:53.3	I was about 17 in that picture, I think.
1:53.8	What?
1:55.5	It's a long, long time ago.
2:01.0	Just hanging out with my friends on the boat in the good old days, you know, in the days when I could get away with wearing shorts, which I wouldn't be seen dead in these days.
2:06.1	Really? Well, you know, you say that. But anyway, it wasn't. That's for another day.
