  <WSC#DPC264:0010:BT>
      he <.>was</.> we had lunch really late and then the guy came to
      pick up the desk thing from the workshop cos we've emptied the
      old workshop now

  <WSC#DPC264:0015:AD>
      oh so he did it all last weekend

  <WSC#DPC264:0020:AD>

  <WSC#DPC264:0070:BT>

  <WSC#DPC264:0075:AD>
      so when does he <drawls>actually</drawls> hand the keys back

  <WSC#DPC264:0080:BT>
      um well the guy hasn't got back to us yet but i suppose we'll
      have to pay the rent till the twentieth of this month
      <&>5:00</&>

  <WSC#DPC264:0085:AD>
      well how much notice do you have to give

  <WSC#DPC264:0090:BT>
      well <.>y</.> there was never really any agreement but you can't
      be too rude

  <WSC#DPC264:0095:AD>
      you haven't got a written agreement at all <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0100:BT>
      no

  <WSC#DPC264:0105:AD>
      and so normally it's what about three weeks isn't it <,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0110:AD>
      well it IS under a tenancy agreement

  <WSC#DPC264:0115:BT>
      oh i wouldn't know

  <WSC#DPC264:0120:AD>
      still if there's no

  <WSC#DPC264:0125:AD>
      er how did you pay the rent fortnightly <.>or</.> <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0130:BT>
      no three months in advance

  <WSC#DPC264:0135:AD>
      oh

  <WSC#DPC264:0140:BT>
      well <{><[>that's how I</[> chose to do it

  <WSC#DPC264:0145:AD>
      <[>oh so <.>y</.></[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0150:AD>
      oh did you

  <WSC#DPC264:0155:BT>
      it's not <?>easy</?> every couple of weeks having to pay out a
      cheque

  <WSC#DPC264:0160:AD>
      and <.>s</.> well when are you paid up to

  <WSC#DPC264:0165:AD>
      do you still owe money now

  <WSC#DPC264:0170:BT>
      owe money till the twentieth of july yeah <,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0175:BT>
      but he's pretty easy going

  <WSC#DPC264:0180:AD>
      right

  <WSC#DPC264:0185:BT>
      just got to take all the gib out and all the walls that we built
      <,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0190:BT>
      take it all out

  <WSC#DPC264:0195:BT>
      cos we subdivided inside

  <WSC#DPC264:0200:AD>
      well what do you HAVE to take it out <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0205:BT>
      no but we'll sell all the materials

  <WSC#DPC264:0210:AD>
      oh i see

  <WSC#DPC264:0215:BT>
      cos the gib and that's only been up a year

  <WSC#DPC264:0220:AD>
      right

  <WSC#DPC264:0225:BT>
      and all the four by twos

  <WSC#DPC264:0230:BT>
      it costs about three <&>6:00</&> hundred dollars <.>to</.> to
      <{><[>you know</[> partition it off

  <WSC#DPC264:0235:AD>
      <[><.>b</.></[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0240:AD>
      oh so will <.>that</.>

  <WSC#DPC264:0245:AD>
      the shop that you've got what will happen <{1><[1>if</[1> you
      gave that up with everything that you've done you know

  <WSC#DPC264:0250:AD>
      like <{2><[2>the</[2> things you've put on the windows and the
      alarms

  <WSC#DPC264:0255:BT>
      <[1><?><.>we</.></?></[1></{1>

  <WSC#DPC264:0260:BT>
      <[2>oh <.>like</.></[2></{2>

  <WSC#DPC264:0265:BT>
      er we can take all those sort of things

  <WSC#DPC264:0270:AD>
      and what else did you do

  <WSC#DPC264:0275:BT>
      we put that wall in but we couldn't take the wall out <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0280:AD>
      what wall

  <WSC#DPC264:0285:BT>
      the wall where we are in the back room <,,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0290:AD>
      what separating you from the shop

  <WSC#DPC264:0295:BT>
      yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0300:AD>
      really <{><[>well</[> what was there before <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0305:BT>
      <[><unclear>word</unclear></[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0310:BT>
      it was half the size <,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0315:AD>
      what in height ways or widthwise

  <WSC#DPC264:0320:BT>
      lengthwise

  <WSC#DPC264:0325:BT>
      width

  <WSC#DPC264:0330:BT>
      that way

  <WSC#DPC264:0335:BT>
      it came up as far as the back door

  <WSC#DPC264:0340:BT>
      you know where the back door is

  <WSC#DPC264:0345:AD>
      right

  <WSC#DPC264:0350:BT>
      that's how long it was

  <WSC#DPC264:0355:AD>
      oh

  <WSC#DPC264:0360:BT>
      and it just wasn't big enough <?><.>not</.></?>

  <WSC#DPC264:0365:BT>
      you can't sit in there or the kids

  <WSC#DPC264:0370:AD>
      yeah <latch> can't sit in there so we made it <{><[>bigger</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0375:AD>
      <[>gosh</[></{> so you put a whole wall in

  <WSC#DPC264:0380:AD>
      i didn't realise that

  <WSC#DPC264:0385:BT>
      yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0390:AD>
      <.>and</.> and is it expected of you that you <.>r</.> you know
      you take all that down and leave it how you found it <{><[>or
      what</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0395:BT>
      <[>oh no</[></{> no no no she knew we were <&>7:00</&> going to
      do it up

  <WSC#DPC264:0400:BT>
      it's cost us quite a bit of money about a thousand dollars to do
      that up

  <WSC#DPC264:0405:AD>
      now if you <{><[>chose to leave that you'd</[> get absolutely
      nothing for it

  <WSC#DPC264:0410:BT>
      <[><?>with a wall like that</?></[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0415:BT>
      no because she gave us a couple of months rent free

  <WSC#DPC264:0420:AD>
      oh i see

  <WSC#DPC264:0425:BT>
      because we were going to do it up

  <WSC#DPC264:0430:AD>
      oh okay so in <.>e</.> in exchange for that now do you leave
      that when you leave

  <WSC#DPC264:0435:BT>
      the wall

  <WSC#DPC264:0440:AD>
      the wall

  <WSC#DPC264:0445:BT>
      oh yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0450:AD>
      yeah <,> <{><[>yeah</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0455:BT>
      <[>well we</[></{> wouldn't want it

  <WSC#DPC264:0460:AD>
      no no but i meant the materials that you've used <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0465:BT>
      yeah <softly><?>well it happens</?></softly>

  <WSC#DPC264:0470:BT>
      but the burglar alarm and the GRILLS we would probably <{><[>take</[>
      and sell or sell <&>pronounced as soul</&> to the next people
      that took on the shop perhaps

  <WSC#DPC264:0475:AD>
      <[>sell</[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0480:AD>
      mm because in your um your business account that would be like
      fittings wouldn't it

  <WSC#DPC264:0485:AD>
      furniture and fittings

  <WSC#DPC264:0490:BT>
      <O>tut</O> <?><.>well</.></?> <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0495:AD>
      would it be in the <.>s</.> the same sort of thing category as
      your shelving wouldn't it

  <WSC#DPC264:0500:BT>
      <O>exhales</O> well originally that's what we thought with the
      other shop but when we took the other shop for fixtures and
      fittings we didn't get the alarm <,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0505:AD>
      well no that was an extra wasn't it

  <WSC#DPC264:0510:BT>
      yeah but i mean <.>i</.> by rights when you buy a <&>8:00</&>
      shop um fixtures and fittings in it it should be everything

  <WSC#DPC264:0515:AD>
      but was there alarm in the other shop <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0520:BT>
      yes

  <WSC#DPC264:0525:AD>
      oh

  <WSC#DPC264:0530:BT>
      mm <?><.>but</.></?> <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0535:AD>
      but can you now include your alarm <{1><[1>if</[1> you chose to
      leave it there can you sell it with the business <{2><[2>as part
      of fixtures and fittings</[2>

  <WSC#DPC264:0540:BT>
      <[1><?>if</?></[1></{1>

  <WSC#DPC264:0545:BT>
      <[2>oh yes oh definitely</[2></{2>

  <WSC#DPC264:0550:BT>
      definitely yeah we bought it

  <WSC#DPC264:0555:AD>
      right

  <WSC#DPC264:0560:BT>
      yeah we would just up the price <{><[><?>by</?> <unclear>word</unclear>
      <?>we found it</?></[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0565:AD>
      <[>so yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0570:AD>
      logically then</[></{> you'd just include the grills as well and
      <{><[><?>sell it</?> as part of the</[> business

  <WSC#DPC264:0575:BT>
      <[>that's right <.>if</.></[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0580:BT>
      depending if we sold the business or just gave up after two
      years <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0585:BT>
      mm because otherwise really what use is it

  <WSC#DPC264:0590:BT>
      i mean it would be very hard to get windows exactly the same
      size to take them <{><[><?>wouldn't it</?></[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0595:BT>
      <[>you could always</[></{> get smaller windows though cos
      they're big windows <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0600:AD>
      what are they made of the grills

  <WSC#DPC264:0605:BT>
      steel

  <WSC#DPC264:0610:AD>
      and how are they attached <.>i</.> they <.>m</.> <.>what</.>
      <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0615:BT>
      screwed into a thing

  <WSC#DPC264:0620:BT>
      so it could be made to fit anything

  <WSC#DPC264:0625:AD>
      could it

  <WSC#DPC264:0630:BT>
      mm

  <WSC#DPC264:0635:AD>
      they'd just have to what put new fittings <{><[>so the screws or
      <.>some</.></[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0640:BT>
      <[>well they'd have to cut them smaller</[></{> yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0645:BT>
      but i mean you know i'm not worried about it at this <{><[>stage</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0650:AD>
      <[>no</[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0655:AD>
      yeah i noticed actually there are quite a few shops round there
      have got those <&>9:00</&> grills haven't they <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0660:BT>
      well they had in the first four weeks three break ins in there

  <WSC#DPC264:0665:AD>
      that you moved in

  <WSC#DPC264:0670:BT>
      mm in three shops <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0675:AD>
      who did they break into

  <WSC#DPC264:0680:BT>
      two dairies and the lawnmower place

  <WSC#DPC264:0685:AD>
      oh did they

  <WSC#DPC264:0690:BT>
      yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0695:AD>
      gee <,,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0700:BT>
      <?>yeah</?> and the two dairies they live above the premises and
      they still broke in

  <WSC#DPC264:0705:AD>
      now is that the one down next to oliver's and the one on the
      corner

  <WSC#DPC264:0710:BT>
      no

  <WSC#DPC264:0715:AD>
      <{><[><?>ordi</?> <unclear>word</unclear></[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0720:BT>
      <[>one</[></{> on the corner and the one next to me

  <WSC#DPC264:0725:AD>
      right

  <WSC#DPC264:0730:BT>
      so you know <slowly>it's a pretty full of <.>br</.></slowly>
      break ins and that <.>a</.> quite you know

  <WSC#DPC264:0735:AD>
      mm <O>tut</O> i think actually i went to that um fruit shop you
      know up where honda used to be

  <WSC#DPC264:0740:BT>
      that's <{><[><?>our landlord</?></[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0745:AD>
      <[>they've yeah</[></{> <.>th</.> so they are obviously <&>pronounced
      as abviously</&> you know they're obviously just temporary
      aren't they because that's all going to be k mart

  <WSC#DPC264:0750:BT>
      well i don't know

  <WSC#DPC264:0755:BT>
      IS that going to be part of k mart

  <WSC#DPC264:0760:AD>
      i'm sure that whole block there is <,,>

  <WSC#DPC264:0765:AD>
      that was the old honda site and i'm sure that went right
      <&>10:00</&> through from queens drive through to <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0770:BT>
      does it

  <WSC#DPC264:0775:AD>
      what's the name of that street

  <WSC#DPC264:0780:AD>
      <.>qu</.> er queensgate road isn't it

  <WSC#DPC264:0785:AD>
      no it's not

  <WSC#DPC264:0790:AD>
      what's it called

  <WSC#DPC264:0795:BT>
      yeah it is queensgate road

  <WSC#DPC264:0800:AD>
      it is

  <WSC#DPC264:0805:BT>
      yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0810:AD>
      i'm sure it's that <{><[>whole site</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0815:BT>
      <[>oh so they're only</[></{> temporary

  <WSC#DPC264:0820:AD>
      and then they were going to actually cover over from there to
      queensgate

  <WSC#DPC264:0825:AD>
      connect it so that where the buses go is under a cover

  <WSC#DPC264:0830:AD>
      the street is actually going to have a cover <{><[>over it</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0835:BT>
      <[>oh is that</[></{> right

  <WSC#DPC264:0840:AD>
      well that's what i understood by the plans i saw

  <WSC#DPC264:0845:BT>
      yeah so whether or not she'll move in somewhere else i don't
      know

  <WSC#DPC264:0850:AD>
      and then her other little shop is the one over by real scene
      isn't it <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0855:BT>
      yeah <latch> the clothing shop

  <WSC#DPC264:0860:AD>
      but she seems to be doing quite a big business <{><[>in the</[>
      fruit part there

  <WSC#DPC264:0865:BT>
      <[>oh</[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0870:BT>
      yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0875:BT>
      every time I'VE been there they're just flat out <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0880:AD>
      yeah they've obviously taken on new staff because i noticed that
      the guy that used to work up here in fairfield working at <{><[>the
      place in the hutt</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0885:AD>
      oh do they

  <WSC#DPC264:0890:BT>
      <[>they alternate</[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0895:BT>

      <&>11:00</&> of that

  <WSC#DPC264:0905:AD>
      so there's YOUR shop and then how many more down do they own

  <WSC#DPC264:0910:BT>
      <.>the</.> er the shoe shop and the back flat

  <WSC#DPC264:0915:AD>
      <.>shoe</.> yeah but it's not a shoe shop now is <{><[>it</[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0920:BT>
      <[>no</[></{> it's clothing

  <WSC#DPC264:0925:AD>
      that didn't last long

  <WSC#DPC264:0930:BT>
      two years

  <WSC#DPC264:0935:AD>
      since the new people took over really

  <WSC#DPC264:0940:AD>
      gosh it doesn't seem like that <latch>

  <WSC#DPC264:0945:BT>
      mm no it was two years exactly

  <WSC#DPC264:0950:AD>
      and is it the same people doing the clothing or <.>w</.> or <{><[>did
      <.>they</.></[>

  <WSC#DPC264:0955:AD>

  <WSC#DPC264:0960:BT>
      <[>no no no</[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:0965:BT>
      yeah that's why they closed up yeah

  <WSC#DPC264:0970:BT>
      she didn't want to carry on

  <WSC#DPC264:0975:AD>
      didn't she <,> oh

  <WSC#DPC264:0980:BT>
      no

      and anne and I actually thought it was new clothing

  <WSC#DPC264:1300:AD>
      i didn't realise for a while that it was second hand

  <WSC#DPC264:1305:BT>
      <?>never found it</?>

  <WSC#DPC264:1310:AD>
      yeah <.>i</.> it's fairly new at <.>tha</.>

  <WSC#DPC264:1315:AD>
      i'm just trying to think what the hang was there

  <WSC#DPC264:1320:AD>
      i'm sure it <&>14:00</&> was <.>a</.> <,> a women's wear shop
      you know like sportswear and things like that <,>

  <WSC#DPC264:1325:AD>
      <{><[>and then it then i sort of</[> looked one day when i went
      past and i thought oh no it's a fuller fashion outfit because
      they had sort of bigger garments

  <WSC#DPC264:1330:AD>
      and then it wasn't <laughs>until about a month</laughs> later i
      suddenly twigged that it was a recycled place

  <WSC#DPC264:1335:BT>
      <[>yeah i know <unclear>word</unclear></[></{>

  <WSC#DPC264:1340:BT>
