00:04 I remember going to ask her father
00:06 if I could borrow 20 grand for the deposit
00:08 for a flat that we fell in love with.

00:12 I'll pay for lunch, and I said,
00:14 oh, by the way, about that deposit,
00:17 you know, Tana and I, we've got half of it,
00:18 we need the other 20 grand.
00:20 I'll pay you back in a year.
