"I'll buy the cow and put it on the roof. High-rise farming is gonna be MY invention."

 or click here
"I can see your future. And— Oh. You just had the best bit."
 or click here

And for those with too much free time, this is what I found on the recording from the very beginning of the night. Adam has obviously found himself a delightful new amusement. There was a full 12 minutes of this.

 or click here

Readers who can't listen to audio for this, I'm so sorry, but it is just way too long and non-sensible to transcribe. Suffice it to say that Adam catches me in the state where you are dreaming just barely awake, and he keeps me talking rubbish as long as he can.

    Sorry STM, High rise farming is NOT your idea as it was first done to our knowledge in the 19th century in Leeds. Temple Works, a flax mill was built on Marshall Street Leeds in 1841 with a flat roof. The roof was grassed over to keep the flax moist and sheep were kept up there until 1886 when the mill burnt down. I'm Leeds born and bred and know a bit about the city. www.leedsguide.co.uk/review/foundations/temple-works/16356

    They say there's nothing new under the sun.............

    This never happened to me before...neither option works. The player stays silent and doesn't play. The link yields "Service Unavailble."

    I'm Marilyn and I'm a PC (well, laptop, actually).

    @Anonymous Leeds person: that was fascinating. Thank you for sharing.

    I agree with everyone who commented on Adam's giggles... Every time he laughs, I crack up. I love the banter between the two of you, asleep as well as awake apparently. You guys make me smile ever single day, all the way across the Atlantic (I'm in West Palm Beach, FL), and for that I thank you!

    G'day from Australia =]

    I had a good chuckle at the high rise farming comment as I think it directly related to the cow found on a house roof after the Queensland floods started to subside.. (God bless the people affected by the floods x)

    Keep up the good work - STM always manages to get a giggle (sometimes a belly laugh) from me!

    Cheers ~Lesley

    Using Firefox on a PC, the audio works perfectly.

    And I'd LOVE to hear the whole audio (and waste away 12 minutes of my life laughing frantically... it was awesome!)

    You know you have too much time on your hands when... I tried to transcribe it before work this morning for people who can't get the audio... hope that's ok?
    Karen – there are 27 and… no
    Adam – Go back to sleep. The counting, there are 20?
    Karen – 7
    Adam – 27?
    Karen – Ha, a-ha
    Adam – 27 what?
    Karen – I don’t know. I don’t know what it was.
    Adam – Sniggers
    Karen – It’s not funny, but, I can’t help it
    Adam – (still laughing)
    Karen – I know what I mean
    Adam – (still laughing) I’m so pleased for you
    Karen – I know what I mean. I want oreos.
    Adam – What? (still laughing)
    Karen – Oreos!
    Adam – Now?
    Karen – Noooo.
    Adam – Nooo.
    Karen – Mmmm
    Adam – mmm?
    Karen – Maybe.
    Adam – You don’t want an oreo now? Surely?
    Karen – No, ok
    Adam – It’s Late.
    Karen – But
    Adam – what? But?
    Karen – I was thinking about trading the numbers.
    Adam – You were thinking about training the numbers?
    Karen – laughs - Trading
    Adam – What? Trading?
    Karen – Yeah.
    Adam – What, for what?
    Karen – each other
    Adam – They were talking about trading each other?
    Karen – Noooo. The numbers
    Adam – what numbers?
    Karen – I don’t remember anymore
    Adam – and what were you going to trade them in for?
    Karen – each other, each other…
    Adam – you gonna swap them?
    Karen – yeah
    Adam – like a 7 for a 2?
    Karen – yeah
    Adam – (laughs)
    Karen – that was it
    Adam – what was it? You going to swap some numbers around? What did the numbers represent?
    Karen – no but, it wasn’t really the numbers
    Adam – like 2 rabbits for 7 goats?
    Karen – no like the, the, the…
    Adam – (sniggering again)
    Karen – there were, like there were 5… wait, wait… I know it makes sense
    Adam – (guffaws)
    Karen – there were 5 um, er… something
    Adam – (laughing harder) I’m so impressed
    Karen – there were five…
    Adam – I’m so impressed this made sense to you at some point in your head
    Karen – yeah
    Adam – can I say what I’m most excited about
    Karen – yeah
    Adam – for you to listen back to this tomorrow morning
    Karen – no

    (I'm not used to doing this kind of thing & it's not the full 12 mins & I know it's not Karen's usual standard)
