i don't know what are you gonna do um i'm gonna go down i think you're gonna go down? yeah yeah? i've got christopher who's gonna give me a ride so that's pretty cool oh yeah i might go down as well see if i can get in aha yeah um tut bugger knows WHEN though and i don't know whether it's worth it <.>but i <.>might go down now eh? try and get there about twenty past seven okay yep <,> aha <&>5:00 aha um tut <,,><&>3 yeah i suppose it's worth a go yeah if not we can just bugger off into town or something yeah yeah okay um if it's horrible come back to my house or something aha cos my parents are going out for dinner so they should be out for quite a while oh excellent mm yeah sounds good um yeah they should be out about six and <.>probably no probably about seven they should go out and they probably won't be back till about twelve oh sounds good mm sounds good um so what shall i see you there yeah probably yeah if not i don't know yeah we'll get in contact tomorrow anyway yeah okay okay if i see you i will otherwise see <{><[>you tomorrow <[>yeah if you see me you won't recognise me sorry?

i don't know word laughs taking too long yeah they had to pack up the whole place word oh yeah would have been hours wouldn't it yeah word we just went down to expresso and had a couple of drinks and sat down for about half an hour and then went home aha yeah i think it would have been a while and i DOUBT there would have been anything decent on mm never mind <,> oh shit i've only got HALF the day <&>8:00 to do the jobs i wanted to do laughs no i've been up studying oh laughs oh yeah word brilliant eh? word brilliant oh yeah just started alternating current oh i see yeah what i was ringing to say was um do you happen to have two copies of that yellow physics book thing i'm not sure cos i can't seem to find mine anywhere here oh right i can't remember if you gave me mine back or not no i wouldn't have a clue um <,,><&>3 i should have a look eh? yep and also i've got a question for you aha a problem i couldn't work out aha i'll just find it where is it not that one voc voc voc voc voc here we go um it <&>9:00 is <.>es estimations of a period of oscillations for a mass m of one k g on the end of a spring <.>IS and it gives you a b c d right <,> oh and i would not have a clue word <,,><&>5 oh dear i guessed very wrong well no it was the closest guess but it was wrong laughs <,,><&>3 oh that's quite tricky i should imagine cos you don't know anything else no there must be some secret way of doing it that i should word <,,><&>3 very nasty yeah well the question before that was consider the oscillations of a mass on the end of a spring yeah consider the following three statements the period of the oscillation is constant for a given mass yep and the period of oscillation is proportional to a mass m aha which is wrong laughs and the square <&>10:00 of the period of the <.>oscillation <&>pronounced as <.>ostillation oscillation is proportional to the mass right yes so i thought okay judging by <.>that yeah you say the mass is one k g yep and it is proportional to the square of the period so i square rooted the mass <,> and I came up with one cos the square root of one is one yeah i said that's my guess but i was wrong and the answer was e eight point nine <.>s i mean <.>p point eight nine seconds oh shit voc well it's got pi in there somewhere then <,> to get a number like that yeah i thought that but i couldn't figure it out word i did laughs <,,><&>3 oh well yeah i'll have a look at it it's on the simple harmonic though isn't it yep <.>it's <.>it's <.>it's <.>it's it's test yourself <&>11:00 four b question one e oh right and when do you want that book um i don't <.>know i don't know um voc <.>t tonight maybe if you guys want to come up tonight aha cos the old parents are going out right so i thought i'd have <.>s you guys up if you wanted to come up aha all right i'll have a look for the book then yeah don't stress out about it or anything <.>but oh yeah word be able to find it if it's there but yeah it should be there yeah if you haven't got it well have a look cos i'm just interested to see what's in that book compared to word okay then <,> um i had a good rummage went through both of my bags and my cupboards and i couldn't find it i was going fuck i'm sure i had it <{><[>laughs <[>laughs oh well okay so what you'll call me later or what yeah i'll call you later on with <,> time and stuff have a think what you want to do exactly aha um cos all i can offer out here is music <&>12:00 videos drink that sort of thing aha yeah well i'm probably not in much of a state to do anything else obviously i <.>mean keep swaying <.>twelve twelve thirty i mean voc it's not a BAD sleep in eh?

mm bloody cat going <&>makes cat sound outside my door oh wonderful so i got up went down took some photos at the mall came home and did some physics word oh dear you're making me feel very guilty oh not really i haven't actually DONE all that much oh good just looks like <.>it sounds like it <&>13:00 yeah i mean i finished harmonic motion tried to do the questions at the end yeah got stuck on that one question laughs aha so yeah did the rest of the questions and then went on to a c current yeah it's going to be deadly eh <,> test on monday yeah yeah pretty much oh i'm just basically going to go through this book and then have a look back through my notes yeah <,> oh well yeah give us a call i've got to <.>do got to do a survey this afternoon okay what time are you going out oh i'll be back by about four or something probably okay yep oh yeah <{><[><.>so <[>i'm going over to mel's to do some calculus tests that she's got hold of aha oh yeah just give us a call then okay right okay see you later see you later <&>13:45 <&>conversation ends and new one starts with same speakers <&>13:59 hello hi ringing you back oh i see okay aha are you not bothered no no aha okay ah dear i'm absolutely buggered so you're not bothered either? no laughs mm oh well i was before but i'm not now yeah right realisation of how tired i am <.>what what word this afternoon what <{><[>what word <[>oh i don't know one of the years yeah oh wonderful how much can you do oh um not much laughs what sort of thing differentiation and stuff yeah oh wonderful <,,> yeah it's really positive eh when you've just about reached the end of <.>your end of your course mm and you attempt a paper and <.>it and it <.>doesn't i mean <.>it's it's not easy is it mm no <&>voice in background says turn it up oh well laughs excuse me for a sec laughs is that catherine going shut up no it's dad oh oops <&>laughter from someone else <&>15:00 what no it's not you it's me sounded like a girl laughs he does?

no i don't know how i'm gonna do it if it counts for internal assessment it's quite important <,> so i don't know i guess i'll have to spend some time tomorrow <,,><&>3 oh bugger bugger laughs exhales we could object if he tries to give us <.>it <{><[>give us it on monday <[>what what what <&>16:00 we could say bugger off if <.>he if he gives it to us on monday why cos he <.>didn't he didn't tell us what day it was going to be yeah right word yeah we didn't know i'm going to study it's internal assessment so it's really important so piss off yeah oh well oh well enjoy your evening i will laughs most relaxed evening yeah for sure eh? yeah hopefully laughs what do you mean er <.>i'm i'm just mm too tired to think laughs yeah oh there's just too much to DO to relax that's the problem yeah i know so okay relaxation time word laughs oh never mind yeah oh well i'll ring you tomorrow maybe okay then okay i'll hear from you then yep right bye bye <&>16:50
