[0:04] It's good to see you, Pat.
[0:09] We seem to have a bit of a war.
[0:23] I'm trying to sleep, but I don't know what I'm trying to sleep on.
[0:26] I'm actually, that's what I'm making.
[0:28] I'm doing what I said this morning, so I'm... No doubt at all.
[0:31] Absolutely.
[0:32] This is the letter.
[0:32] Yes.

[1:02] He's looking for me.
[1:11] He's looking for me.
[1:11] He's looking for me.
[1:12] He's looking for me.
[1:12] He's looking for me.
[1:15] That's very, very reasonable.
[1:18] And we're looking at it in different kinds of ways.
[1:24] Sure.
[1:24] We know that in such matters of this sort, the public starts to work out in terms of their interests.
[1:35] And we've done very well working on that.
[1:43] We've done a good thing.
[1:44] Thank God.
[1:45] It's good.
[1:46] It's good.
[1:46] And the visit that was made here was good.
[1:51] Excellent.
[1:52] And we will never forget our reception.
[1:55] It was the greatest day of all.
[1:57] I'm looking forward to going back sometime.
[2:02] Well, see you.
[2:03] Thank you.
[2:03] Thank you.
[2:04] Thank you.
[2:10] I also told him that I remembered his granddaughter.
[2:16] and, uh, and, uh, grandchildren in the United States.
[2:21] We haven't seen them, but if they come, it's just actually what I'd like to do.
[2:27] Well, actually, I'm here.
[2:29] Well, actually, I'm here.
[2:29] Well, actually, I'm here.

[2:39] Well, actually, I'm here.
[2:42] Well, actually, I'm here.
[2:43] the main trip, I mean, the German, well, now they should come, you know, I mean, it's dark.
[2:55] But if they should come, I mean, sometimes in the fear, you get a hold of, I don't know how to use your name, is this because...
[3:10] They said they were going to have a party, you know, or something.
[3:11] And at the end of the day, we consider them rather special people.
[3:13] And whenever they come, you let us know.
[3:14] Because they told us they were going to have a party.
[3:15] Yeah.
[3:35] Thank you very much.
