00:00So I've done like 30 years on my own here and yeah, now's the time to go.
00:06I've said it for 20 years and everyone knows that, you know, another year, another year, but this year's the year.
00:13Shane, I call him my son because he's been coming up here since he was 11 and he's nearly 40 now.
00:21All the little skateboarders, Billy, Joe, Ryan, Alan, they're twins and they're all like, well he's married now with children,
00:34Billy's got kids and the time's gone so quick and they're so young, they're only like 11 and 12 here.
00:44Those little buggers, they used to come up. And then we used to have Bill, the policeman, who'd come here for quite a few years.
00:52They used to come up every day, have a little drink, a little chat. So it's all these people that I'm going to miss so much.
01:00McDonald's came, that was when, you know, the burger trade went down.
01:05I have to say I only sold about 200 burgers all summer, so it wasn't, you know, a big trade, but my whippy kept me going.
01:15I say it wasn't the money that kept me here, it was the people and the friendships that have come from being here.
01:22Yeah, that's what I'm going to miss.
