- 0:05Speaker 1: for listening to our Breakfast Bonus podcast Today. We're talking
- 0:07Speaker 1: about gifts, but gifts around the world.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Yeah, so I have regret. I have been very lucky
- 0:11Speaker 2: to travel for work, and along those those wonderful journeys
- 0:15Speaker 2: which included New York and Miami and Australia and Long Island.
- 0:20Speaker 3: And immut Bahama.
- 0:22Speaker 2: That's it, I fell in love with certain pieces of
- 0:25Speaker 2: art along the way and didn't purchase them.
- 0:27Speaker 3: Well, you're quite a discerning art lover.
- 0:29Speaker 2: On sure, no quiet taste, I have no, I have one. No,
- 0:33Speaker 2: I have one Graham Brinsley, which he's a New Zealand
- 0:37Speaker 2: painter based out of Arrowtown. And the reason I got
- 0:39Speaker 2: that painting was because I got him to paint it
- 0:41Speaker 2: on Breakfast while I did the show, and then just
- 0:43Speaker 2: snapped it up and took it away.
- 0:44Speaker 3: So that's what I just said. As it turns out,
- 0:46Speaker 3: I also get to keep the.
- 0:49Speaker 2: But that's a wonderful memento for my time on Breakfast.
- 0:52Speaker 4: You've had a varied memento history, don't you What dog
- 0:55Speaker 4: you had that you had?
- 0:56Speaker 3: The glass bone blow and phelic?
- 0:58Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 0:58Speaker 2: Well, I did quite well on breakfast, and I didn't
- 1:00Speaker 2: keep up the tradition because you know, when I did
- 1:03Speaker 2: tourism Australia last year, I found the most monumental Aboriginal painting.
- 1:07Speaker 2: It was about six foot high, about four foot wide,
- 1:09Speaker 2: and it was based with tiny little brushstrokes. The whole
- 1:12Speaker 2: thing was individual.
- 1:14Speaker 3: Was that free?
- 1:15Speaker 2: No, that was two thousand dollars, but I wish I
- 1:17Speaker 2: bought it. And then there was a painting of Dean's
- 1:19Speaker 2: Blue Hole up in Long Island.
- 1:24Speaker 3: Why is it blue?
- 1:27Speaker 1: Two questions?
- 1:30Speaker 2: Dean's Blue Hole where William Truebridge set the record for
- 1:35Speaker 2: the deepest die because I couldn't afford it at the time,
- 1:40Speaker 2: but I was like two thousand dollars as well, everything's
- 1:43Speaker 2: two thousand to four.
- 1:44Speaker 3: Need people to paint these things so you can keep
- 1:46Speaker 3: stealing them, can.
- 1:49Speaker 2: You reach respectively? Go back and just you know, we
- 1:51Speaker 2: cost me a fortune to do that. But over time
- 1:52Speaker 2: I feel like I could have afforded it, and I
- 1:54Speaker 2: would have filled my house with beautiful mementos of the
- 1:57Speaker 2: trips I've done overseas.
- 1:58Speaker 3: That's why you've brought correct.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Yeah. So when I went to Morano recently, there was
- 2:03Speaker 2: a clock well, there was actually a beautiful set of
- 2:05Speaker 2: pictures and.
- 2:06Speaker 1: What's Morano famous for glass?
- 2:08Speaker 2: So I went to the glass blowing factory and there
- 2:10Speaker 2: was this wonderful picture of a big jug and not
- 2:13Speaker 2: sorry a picture, you know.
- 2:14Speaker 4: Like a picture a jugging cups, yeah, jugging cups, but
- 2:19Speaker 4: a picture and goblets.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Thank you so inst that you went and.
- 2:23Speaker 2: You and I said, I will have those goblets in
- 2:25Speaker 2: those cups. And they said that will be three thousand
- 2:28Speaker 2: dollars and I said, I can't affoord that I'll have
- 2:31Speaker 2: that clock up there? How much is that? They said
- 2:32Speaker 2: two hundred ninety dollars, And then I walked down the
- 2:34Speaker 2: road and I found it for one hundred and ninety dollars.
- 2:37Speaker 3: You don't know is that clock actually wasn't for sale.
- 2:39Speaker 4: It was just the clock they bug up on the
- 2:41Speaker 4: wall and they went for he wants the clock, just
- 2:43Speaker 4: give it to him.
- 2:44Speaker 1: It wasn't even a Morano, damn it.
- 2:48Speaker 4: No.
- 2:48Speaker 1: We did something similar that. We had a family holiday
- 2:51Speaker 1: in Queenstown and in the hotel we stayed at this
- 2:53Speaker 1: incredible artwork on but it was little glass leaves and
- 2:57Speaker 1: the leaves were all like golden brown, like you know,
- 2:59Speaker 1: like like our town and queens done and autumn, stunning
- 3:01Speaker 1: piece of artwork. It kind of like fell out of
- 3:03Speaker 1: the wall, came towards three D and we looked around
- 3:05Speaker 1: at w inter receptions. So do you know the artists
- 3:07Speaker 1: it's a local artist power and they keep trying to
- 3:09Speaker 1: track this person down and they never Months later I
- 3:11Speaker 1: rang back and they didn't know what I had, the
- 3:13Speaker 1: room number of the artwork. They couldn't track it down.
- 3:16Speaker 1: And to this day I still regret that.
- 3:17Speaker 4: Yeah, it's nice to have momentos, isn't it. I mean,
- 3:19Speaker 4: you'll always look at that clock and think what a
- 3:22Speaker 4: poor choice.

- 3:27Speaker 2: made either.
