Divya HariramaniGUEST
Yeah, there's so many beautiful stories.
Divya HariramaniGUEST
But I think the first story that I heard was a woman named Marlene Anderson, and she had a grapefruit tree near Battersea Park.
Divya HariramaniGUEST
And I was so lucky because I got to meet her and she's now passed.
Divya HariramaniGUEST
And there's been like huge, like the news that they saved the tree and so on.
Bob ChaundyHOST
Can you tell me exactly what that is?
Stewart GeddesGUEST
yeah it's it's it's any building that is associated with the sort of modernist school that is now in a ruinous state and it's interesting you should pick up on that because if i'd taken my research project to full phd level because i disembarked at m phil level if i'd taken it to phd level i think the modern ruin might have become the focus of it and uh I read a very interesting article by a guy called Robert Harbison who talked about walking around Battersea Park and the remnants of the Festival of Britain and of these pools and these pavilions.
Stewart GeddesGUEST
And at the time that he was walking around them in the early 90s, they were completely neglected.
Stewart GeddesGUEST
I mean, the ponds are full of leaves and the pavilions are all tired and bits chipped off them.
Maida SavarezNARRATOR
You do not need to be told that these are flowers.
Maida SavarezNARRATOR
What about the grass on lawns and in such places as Battersea Park and Hyde Park in London? Oh, you say, that is not a flower at all, that is just grass.
Maida SavarezNARRATOR
Yes, it is grass, but the grass has a flower as well as a rose bush or a violet plant.
Maida SavarezNARRATOR
It is only because the grass is kept cut short that you do not see its flower on a lawn.
Joe HudsonGUEST
And so it kind of made getting those easy runs pretty straightforward.
Joe HudsonGUEST

Joe HudsonGUEST

Joe HudsonGUEST
And then Tuesday evening, there's obviously the group session.

ChandlerHOST
And he was kicking a ball around with the Whalers anywhere that he could at a petrol station while on tour.
ChandlerHOST

And he was wearing Adidas shoes.
ChandlerHOST
He didn't just wear them to play.
