please yeah i'd love to
50:54
man i set my sights pretty high early on um this would be a bit of a bit of a yarn so if you go for it no we're good time there's a patch of ground and i thought we'd never be able to hunt it again because we had huge bushfires from 2019 and a lot of blocks of public land were shut off and that was because i had to assess it like if there's dangerous trees over traction like fair enough and there's only so many employees who can go check out the state forest estates to to make those assessments.
51:25
So there was a rollout and took years.
51:27
And in that period of time, the government also took the advantage to say, well, we need to switch land 10 years and turn a lot of state forest into national parks.
51:35
A real problem we have down here, and I've got to do more talking about it and dealing with it.
51:39
But the point is, there's this thing called flora and fauna reserves.
51:44
And this was the halfway that the government could say, all right, national parks is going to take this land.
