Georgia tonight you can find me on there as well Johnny I Anson should you see fit there's no point in me doing this program without least getting a few extra Twitter followers is there on the show tonight we would love you to get in touch with others about if you've ever responded to an adverts in a newspaper or maybe on a pin boards maybe have phone box who knows we'd love to hear your tales of when you've done that because we're going to meet General from Wakefield in a moment's time who's retired been many 76 years old he saw an advert in mews paper remember them keep them go in and it was for mature models and you had responded and is now flourished in his brand new career as a new model so if you have ever responding to an ad in a newspaper whether it's buying stuff whether it's rendering services whether it's actually getting it. Job whatever is we'd love to hear from on the program tonight one triple 3 star that takes with the word Georgie while on the end of 345308588 is sadly a dying art now isn't it because there are still the various sites where you go and you pick up stuff for cheap but it's all online now isn't it I was in my local corner shop the other day story corner shops a big kind of brand but it's a shop. And it's a local convenience store and there are still a few people that have the cards the little adverts on the boards at the back but I do think who uses them but they obviously somebody must do for various weird things like a pair of men shoes barely used 3 years old so 6 stuff like that there must be people that still use them and I would love to hear from you today I want triple for a stock that takes with the word Georgie well over 345303 double 3 double 3 and we speak to the brilliantly named Gerald gamble mature model on the program next. I'm breathless on Georgia tonight with me Johnny I understand 715 in our questions here this evening is have you ever responded to an ad in particular if it was say in a newspaper or something paper based but at least maybe if it's I don't know your workplace and there's a pin board that you've got in a communal area or of course will take online maybe something that you went for and changed your life forever maybe just like in a bargain from the local convenience store which still has in your little corner shop those cards back I was just talking about well things have certainly changed for our 1st guest this evening let me introduce you to Gerald Gamble who is retired big money in Wakefield until he took a gamble and responded to an advert on line high general how you Oh Ok Well David lovely to have you here Gerald tell me about your new career what is your job now. That your model and I. Feel are all I'm looking for we're different go along very commercial. And I think a lot of our. Very good want to. Have your honest Gerald and I don't look them in every article going on here how did this all come about and what happened I was just wanted online and I saw this. Model. So my friend Peter I was going to apply for this and you start well without my car really so until days later I got an email. Model. Right into law 5 to go for a photo shoot good on your excellent So what did you have to send a picture through of yourself and. All Council pictures 6 models. And they all thought about it from a guy and they obviously lie when they saw. Did they tell you what they were looking for in particular Nova just so when the show down in London and. This still gross well. 5 outbreak changes in photos. Thought I was going to preach it yeah now now when because the Internet can be a weed and wonderful place Jerald and when you see an ad for mature models wanted Was there anything that made you slightly wary about. Well certain. About me. Oh no not. Right Ok but you are now a mature model Oh yeah I've I went to court over. Lawley n.y. . And this one turned out to be. An agency in Manchester. That is very nice and wanted to go. Home to me recently yet not yet fantastic when I've seen your video online and I would highly recommend everybody to do it because you do a fantastic impression of Claudia Schiffer on that strutting down the can you strolling down the wall should be David Gandee that's a good looking fellow Yeah you do an excellent can't walk if you've been practicing You can't walk well as a. Player decay and I'm I'm just you're a natural So what kind of stuff then if you've been doing and what kind of stuff do you hope to do. I have already reduced after all although I want to like catalog. Next July. So was a shell was yeah yeah and obviously it pays to respond if you see adverts yet so what so what I mean what if your friends been saying that now that they know you are a natural model well have any sense just take like an a just fluff. You proved him wrong I mean yeah yeah rode him down yeah and what you dream job then if you don't want to particularly like who I am for I just want to get plenty of work out of it and I live. At the mall when I walk in. Dog 4 times a day stuff between a outsize and Labrador are not capable of taking him out while the going to keep you tell you when a Yep excellent Well Gerald thank you very much for being with us today on the program good luck in the future and we'll keep our eyes peeled for a new front cover of g Q Yes fine kills and I started All right thank you I see light when I buy good out now that Cheryl Campbell there which I've been in for Wakefield He's now a mature model. What if you responded to an odd one trip text with the g.o.g. 003-453-1858 anywhere and everywhere and yeah but you've never responded to let me share with us on the program. Eventually. a day when you feel you can either make you feel slightly better or even worse by all accounts there's research out there that shows that apparently but just how poorly would you need to be before you call into work sick Did I mention I'm feeling a little bit ropey at the moment you could probably tell from how gruff I am at the moment and yes I'm not doing my best impression this is a bit of a cold but I'm soldiering on like the trooper I am now Joe Hollis who's been out and about speaking to me been in Leicester to ask them how sick they need to be before they called in it's use they were. Like feel sick I'd still go in cold so you got a code of the man. And it's the food places when I see something contagious you soldier 3 as you say you can pass on the paper or think just yank it out and get on it if you feel better if you do it anyway just to. Say don't you think you know. And then you're so full. Of you have done nothing when you put all your voice on and go Really oh yeah. I was like this it was a guy I was l. But not. Like in the old voice like I. It's been times I really don't want to use the name because of the reading of the other day but like it's the money any day where there are plenty of mixed responses there what about the woman who works in a restaurant whose turn into work sick germy fingers all over you carbon r.-a Well joining us to discuss this is Dr Phillip monk from Public Health England who's a consultant in health protection Good evening down to Monk How are you. Doing well I'm good and I are very well that's Ok fair few of the people there say they go to work when they're feeling fairly rough is soldiering on in the face of illness a stupid thing to do. That's a strong word if you're feeling pretty rough with a viral infection there's very good research evidence we've now suggest resting giving your body count to recover taking it quietly plenty of fluids I think a marking a date all of a thing you will get back up much quicker than soldiering on said the evidence is that if we're failing pretty rough got a bit of a favor and all the rest of it we really shouldn't be getting to work right and it's not just ourselves that was I mean how much we put in other people or a school in which Onan into office is was a conditioning all restaurants like we heard there with an illness Yeah you could go on the big long flying on an airplane and close yeah I'm not really really boils it for everybody quick it won't come off a plane in 24 hours like that you're on holiday and you've got you've got an awful Eritrean function these are very very nice double Birotteau So we shouldn't be going into public spaces we shouldn't be going into because only a passing comment about a paper the air we breathe down to cull the viruses and other people can breathe we get the viruses on our hands when we need but don't wander we cut a light weight we cut off the cattle when we're making a drink other people follow or saying. Because well for most people I just miserable and I know Ah but the problem buck for low number of people who are vulnerable who've got on the lying. I might have are that I might have. Got bronchitis again and then thing like that you know a really serious thing for them on a not. Decision about me Dr monk or the fact that I'm a hero coming to work as a told face of radio but I've been telling people because I am causing and spluttering and brush now that I'm not contagious anymore is that true not at all. Akhil you are most infectious cold is coming out during the 1st 2448 hours and you are in fact. The 4 or 5 day I was coughing and the problem with coughing is that you are pushing the air out like a faster right. And the droplets that almost dropped at the Docklands hang fire and the viruses brag and they brag in the air and they read on people. Anybody who follows you into that wall and like to be that well you know what I did last night after the show I got a load of antibacterial wipes and a white everything down and I want the monitors in the microphone in the mouse and all of that kind of stuff is that and is there anything else that we can do to prevent people from getting our germs if we are insisting on turning to work. Well on the thing you forgot the coming days walk the dog don't hunt I'm going to be honest difficult to do Londell. But I don't have those I'll write a real culprit in all of this because that's such a commonly cut that unlikely and I'm the kind of office cackle that I get by common because if you've got an office cattle. For you like if you have to go to work and you're out. On doing that you really need to try and take away from people who say you need a minimum spike for my free body out all that least to me. And if there are any common suffixes of a paypal have to give then again you're quite right you need to wipe and we got a real live anything that's got a dozen alcohol wipes will kill a virus and you have to remember they can make for up heroin on surfaces. Eighty's really important to give them a good life to somebody else if you've got a Best Buy or whatever then you must make sure you wipe So in your professional opinion do you think it's probably better that I go home now much boxset Diagnosis Murder I think that would be that I think that yeah you're listening there. Just finally g. Do you think do you think there is an increase or decrease in the amount of people that pull sickies I mean to talk about Public Health England you need anybody to know that when a shaky German winter. Absolutely no idea I really am and all I can cite is. From a professional perspectives that are lots of very cold the people in the West missing a lot of people who are all all more than think with the rest are true viruses that the current be going around So definitely if you long well stay at home lovely stuff start to fill it months from public health and. And thank you very much I'm keeping my. old. Encumbering at the end 6. Because of imagine as which is closing the inside lane in time in $26.00. With an accident the Denton. Directing traffic out the main meant the. 50 miles. Because of the windy weather. Between junction. Jerald there it's I've been in for Wakefield that responded to an advert and changed his correct completely and is now a mature model I would like to hear about when you've responded to an adverse what lead to please hello John a funny that you mentioned adverts in shops especially because that's how me and my late husband got our dog Amber 10 years ago the other were at the vote was in my local butchers Helen. I dread to ask them what happened had nobody responded to the dog in a butcher's really regarding our version of a friend of mine in Norway saw an advertisement for a job working as a size for a seismic ox exploration company I can't even say it let the job he considered himself well qualified So Julie applied but he was told he was unsuitable He then found out it was his own job and that was the 1st inkling that he had that he was about to be fired from c. Like you say I love this one. Tell me in North Shields in 1975 journey I answered an advert for the from the Evening Chronicle for a sales assistant in the local camping and caravanning shop and walls and I was my 1st job and I stayed there for 2 years it was fantastic Well why would you stay there I got 10 percent off all tense about a small town I was working there used to go camping with my girlfriend now my wife Tommy from North Shields cheap tents and wives for life and sassy this is what happens when you respond to adverts what if you responded to an out of one triple 3 style that sex with the word Georgie 34531858 because we are talking well prompted by Joe the bin man who's completely changed his life but he's not the only one on the program tonight has done that I want to you to meet my next guests who are doing something a little bit different. And Sara Saleh left their lives and their jobs in London behind in 216 the packed everything up they got in the car and they moved to wash dishes where they probably set up a brewery why not tonight you can see them on a Channel 5 documentary about starting a new life away from the city but in places say that Sarah from Unity brewhouse joins us 1st on the program hi. Sarah how you hire I'm good thank you well well done to you because there are so many people who say you know what I'm going to give all up moved to the country but you did what do you think was the deciding factor for you. I don't know I'm not sure what it was you're right loads of people said to us when we were told what we're going to be doing and it's struck me that almost everyone's got dream of what they want to give up their kind of everyday life and going to and I think Annie and I just got to the point where life wasn't how we wanted it to be down in London but he was working really long hours and he never saw the children and it was almost like you're leading 2 separate lives in the same house I was working part time and bringing up the kids and we decided we wanted to do something together and we wanted to spend more time together. And we have to decide what we were going to do we wanted star business so we have to find what we having a common interest in and that we cannot be a. It's the thing that binds us all. So did you buy the farm knowing you were going to start a brewery or did you think right brewery we need we need a venue we need a location Come what was what was the order of things well we we decided we did look at a few brewery sale but none of them were quite what we would want how we would want to be so in the end we decided it was probably best we start from scratch and and build our own and we moved up here to watch the show because the area are they still grow hop there so we could use the local help and also there's a higher percentage of free houses around here so there's more of a market for the Bay area than in London most of the pubs are owned by big breweries or whatever and then animals that have choice of what they have a stock so we pick the area and then moved up here and I started buying hops from the Hope Farm just 2 miles down the road and to kind of change our recipes to use local hops and then got talking to the help farmer and they offered a space in one of their buildings for us to rent I went to set a probably fantastic and had you been doing a lot of home brewing before this well. Once we decided that's what we're going to do and I quickly started here you know How did bin homebrew before deciding you want to do it no wow great all consuming pay and well yeah and we know we knew what we liked in terms of taste of beer and things so yeah I want to decide if I wanted to do and then go to homebrew kit I did a few courses I went up to some to learn to do a course there and started brewing and you know developing my mess base and then we got to a point where we thought right I think we're ready to go for this and heavy handed is noted animal house on the market and at that point all our friends and family went to You really hard to take that fella but they all come knocking when it's time for a party to be now they don't they you know well it's amazing how quickly you make friends yeah what you tell them you're opening a brewery that is the vet we have made so many friends it's such a welcoming community that was moved into it's absolutely lovely here and what's the reality be nicer because it's obviously sounds great and you're doing really well but I imagine making that leap and going into the unknown is pretty scary and long difficult hours it was very yes it was a massive leap of faith but we have got faith it will work out well and it is we thought we were talking hard before but it was nothing compared to what we're doing now we really are working all hours and and specially with 2 young children as well . It kind of up the whole new dimension but you're working more hours but I know I'm enjoying it more than we are yeah definitely and I mean I get into it to work together on something which would really enjoying and a lot of people sort of sight like when my husband actually it's working brilliantly well we complemented each other very well so yeah we all were enjoying it was really going on tonight but of course you enjoy each other's company because you're taking they from 9 o'clock in the morning well the strain how could you know . It's all smooth and I just wish it doesn't know how much down how much tasting do you get to do. Well. Yeah quite a lot because obviously you've got to kind of keep up. Taste other people see what the competition like it's your job you've got her everywhere and in terms of all but yeah yeah there equality control that needs to be done but I don't really think you're. Going to use that whenever I'm in the pub next it's just quality control quality control you're going to control the only thing I would think that doesn't ruin your experience is when you go into another pub and drink someone else's beer are you constantly assessing it thing or I would have gone with a stop start again with a new cop in this one instead. No no. I mean I do always. If I take the beer I really like and leave it in my mind is thinking oh what did they used to make me take you know comics and similar but do it well why not in a critical way here I really enjoy taking other people good on you I think you're fantastic for doing this and I don't know what I mean what is your advice finally for people who are listening who think you know I would love to go and do this I've got this dream of doing that but I'm just too scared to make the leap of what too many responsibilities Yeah I mean I think I think it. I think if we thought about every tiny little aspect of the business and what it would involve I don't think we would ever have done it but I think you know we did we did have a business plan and we did think somebody threw everything and we got to the point where we thought you know what we just got to go through this and I think I think that if you've got a belief that what your planning is going to work going to succeed then I think some of the point may just go to do it yeah but I wouldn't if you had 2 children. I want you to learn who did it though you did it yes yes yes did it good on you thanks so much for talking to us good luck in the future thank you very much and yet may be a very prosperous and belated 28000 for you never try and I were dry on your way here how definitely not no thing you can think of yes Sarah thank you so much thank you so you know I thought by now by that Sarah solid partner gave up everything in London start their own brewery but they haven't brewed beer before and I love that I love the adventure of that I want triple for a start the text with the word Georgie or 34530858 of course you can tell us as well about when you've completely changed your life and done something totally different and as well stick with the theme of responding to our vote because we had some caucus coming through.

Johnny because we were talking metal detectors last night the chap that found the bishop's ring that was worth 10000 pounds that you know it needed Beverly in the Northeast journey I was interested to hear that fellow in your program with the metal detecting finds sounds like a lovely item it was you would probably be surprised to learn what beauties are on Earth. On quite a regular basis now this is a super hobby I've been doing for 37 years I'm still not fed up with it probably the main attraction for most detectorists might be you never know what the next signal might produce I can't I but it must be to rethink the exciting when the book goes off. Best wishes and happy New Year to you and all your listeners not forgetting George of course years Dave thank you very much Dave yet you know Dave I can imagine it is fantastically exciting when you think you've found something and if you have as well and then it's worth 10000 pounds yes please thank you very much any metal detecting stories welcome but will try and keep focus tonight please on responding to our verse now it's time for the 2nd b.b.c.
