How does technology affect our ability to be happy? How does social media impact us?

Paul McGeeGUEST
Okay, well, and it is interesting, isn't it? If you literally go back, what, 14 years ago, and you're in a cafe on June the 28th, And you go into this cafe and there's certain things you would notice.

Paul McGeeGUEST
First of all, when you want to order a coffee, there's possibly two choices, black and white, right? And there's one milk option and that's dairy.

Paul McGeeGUEST
And you're looking around the cafe and you're seeing people, maybe some of them are on their own, but they're reading a book or they're reading a newspaper.

Paul McGeeGUEST
And there might be someone who's actually got a phone in their hand, but they're not looking at it and scrolling through it.

How do we know where people are at, whether it's ourselves or whether it's other people? And I guess equally importantly, how do we ensure that someone who's unhappy doesn't, that the issue doesn't get worse and tip over into mental health issues?

brilliant uh paul finally uh to you uh the bottom line is is this is a fantastic event it's been designed for people to enjoy but keep the race in its place wouldn't it be fantastic and fingers crossed and hopefully it's the case that we could reconvene on monday and we've had a wonderful successful event you know public order at a minimum road traffic at a minimum and look at there's a lot of resources being thrown at this to make sure that that's the case
