00:04 that he died by the time you did this so what why did you want to add this bar
00:07 here as a family? Because we because we wanted it as part of that legacy and
00:11 because it was a nice thing to do. I think that was a mistake I think that

00:21 walking around here and the memorabilia is incredible from the the cricket
00:25 memorabilia Joe Roots shirt Michael Vaughan's England blazer you know to the
00:29 pictures here and the incredible stuff. But it's very hard to argue that you
00:36 need a spa pool to pay tribute to your father and it's very hard to argue that
00:41 whatever the original plan in your heads that he would be able to use it obviously
00:46 once he died that arguments gone too. I just don't think you should have done
00:51 the spa pool and I think that's what angered the public because they're like
00:55 how does that add anything to the memory of that looks like you are giving
01:00 yourselves as a family a nice little treat but you're using the Captain Tom
01:05 Foundation umbrella to justify it. That would be what I would say to you.
