Peter Blake

cool were you ever influenced by a watch ambassador

um well i i don't think so but yeah because i mean i definitely was not and this is maybe a little bit of a thing to say but i love the peter blake but i did not know who peter blake was before i went researching the watch so it was already

passed away In retrospect,

yeah, he was already long gone by the time I found out, oh yeah, Peter Blake was the ambassador for this watch, of course, even though it was also worn by Pierce Brosnan and other people.

But yeah, I can't say that I've been overly influenced in that way.

I mean, of course, you see certain people wearing watches where you think, yeah, that's kind of cool, but...

So you're going

to Auckland for? Two weeks of Sir Peter Blake.

Oh, wow.

Sir Peter Blake Trust.

And this is where you get to take teachers who have given up their holidays, which is pretty damn impressive as well.

For a whole week.

Well, not so much these days, but he was for a while, Millsy.

Well, Sir Peter Blake, is he underappreciated? Yeah, possibly.

Do you know who Sir Peter Blake is, Finn?

Yes, I do.

Good.

I was at a student flat at the time.

And we were actually playing a little bit of backyard cricket.

And it came over the wire that Sir Peter Blake was passed away by pirates.

Um, however, Stacey Jones was the name.

So we got Stacey Jones or Sir Peter Blake.

Oh, Sir Peter Blake.

Yeah, we'll go with Sir Peter Blake.

Sorry, Stace.

Yep.

Okay.

Peter Blake or Sir Peter Blake for that.

And the guy was just magic out there.

Well, it turns out that he was Sir Peter Blake's crew on Peter Blake's crew and was actually running Steinlager two as as a charter boat, the big catch.

And then we won and we got lots of free booze, et cetera, et cetera.

As the night progresses, we find out that is that his wife is actually Sir Peter Blake's daughter.

Um, so, you know, we are nonchalantly racing with, you know, sailing royalty and just the world's nicest people.

Um, and again, you just learn and we had all the crew other than myself for a bunch of massive Tongan guys.

Where was it?

It was at Long Bay Beach at the Peter Blake area.

Cool.

What did you do on your camp?
