  Speaker 3: There's deadlines for work, obligations, shopping list, foodless It's a
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: real juggle.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: But make sure you lift your head above the water.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: To look around. Here's a little secret. These days are
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: the best days of the year. The weather is improving,
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: but the car seats won't burn your bum. There's sun,
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: but not enough to have to have to spread sunscreen
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: on everyone every five minutes. The evenings are longer, and
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: yet your relatives haven't arrived yet. It's beach weather, but
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: you can still get a park. Yes, you still have
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: to go to work, but even your boss is halfway
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: out the door. So yes, it's manic, But with some
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: clever planning, the next month can extend your summer long
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: enough to make it feel.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Like you've got six weeks off.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: Like school teachers, we shouldn't have fought our boss like that.
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: All school teachers class half all though night, I.
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Feel like they've all been really dedicated.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: No high journal.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: What feels like two years in the making, the long
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: overdue boys weekend is finally about to happen. Life, kids busy,
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: We're all devoted dads with wonderful wives, and one of
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: my best mates just so happens to be married to
• 1:24
  Speaker 5: my sister. But while we've been busy with kids, sports
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: and family functions and work stuff, time has ticked by.
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: We've tried a few times, but our diaries have never
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: fully matched up until today, and even now, in a
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: late development, one of us will sorely be missed, but
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: we'll raise a glass to him as we swing some
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: golf clubs, real love our glory days, tell tall stories,
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: debate the greatest sporting moments, and pretend we're too young
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: for hangovers while seek withly regretting it all the next morning.
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: We've all seen the stats. Guys in New Zealand just
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: don't catch up with their mates nearly enough, and that's
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: if we're lucky to even have more than one good friend.
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: I'm far too guilty, far too often of putting it off.
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: But this weekend, the logistics have been sorted. The only
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: thing I'm more excited about the week in itself. Is
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: the nan and app I'm going to have afterwards.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: You're going to need it. Can I just check the
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: guy that's sorely missed he's no longer with us?
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Is he's still alive? Still alive.
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: Us?
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Because you can't.
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: I'm no, no, no, fair enough was a late breaking development.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: No, I want to do down on the logistics too.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: What's going on? You glazed over those.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: Details so that our wives are under control, that they've
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: got everything they need so that so we made sure
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: the wives have been pampered this weekend too.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I wasn't worried about that. You mean, how are they
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: getting pampered?
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: Which things are lined up for the wives to enjoy
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: themselves too? Because they're looking after the kids. Obviously they've
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: got the kids in the solo apparent weekend so the
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: boys can have a voice weekend thought of everything.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: Look forward to the firefighter rhyming. Okay, did you know
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: I've been reminded this week of how familiar childhood settings
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: can be, even when over twenty years have passed. I
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: was back at my old high school yesterday, New Plymouth
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: Girls to speak at my old Netble coach Josie Cleaver's
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: farewell on arrival, I remembered precisely the room where I used.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: To do Year nine studies.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: I remember who was teaching me, shout out to you,
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: miss Glover, and who I used to sit by, Emma Shure,
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: who's still a bestie to this day. Those memories are
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: so vivid, and I realize it's because time goes so quickly,
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: and it really is the little things that you remember,
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: the moments when you were in fits of laughter and class,
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: the things your teacher said, you remember the way you felt,
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: they're always the best memories. As for my coach, Josie,
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: she's been at the school for forty four years and
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: in that time has coached some of New Zealand's top
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: athletes like Dannika Whipietti sprinter, Zoey Hobbs and current silver
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Fern Callie Jury. That doesn't happen by accident, and even
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: those of us that didn't go on to represent New
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Zealand have also been impacted. Josie was ultra competitive. She
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: created a culture of excellence and didn't do anything by halves.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: She poured over our positions on court and painstakingly analyzed
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: our opposition. She cared deeply, and then it dawned on
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: me while I was delivering her farewell speech last night,
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: that my full form coach has shaped me and the
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: way I now coach the next generation in more ways
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: than one, and that will be her legacy.
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: Oh it's beautiful.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: You're doing a good job too. That is a little
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: snapshot of our week.

• 4:09
