Hello, Neil.

0:26

It's getting towards the end of the year.

0:29

It is.

0:30

How are you feeling about that?

0:32

Um, well, there's a few things that I wanted to achieve that I haven't,

0:37

so I don't feel good about that,

0:39

but I'm feeling quite festive and ready for those celebrations.

0:45

What about you?

0:47

Yeah. Time, time flies, as we say.

It's the end of the year again.

Shall we start?

Yes.

Have you had a good year, Georgie?

1:02

Yes, Neil. I've had a great year.

1:04

Um, I've been very busy.

1:06

I've had a few trips and I've also turned 30, so I've had a big birthday.

1:13

What about you? How has your year been?

1:15

Yeah, it's been pretty good.

1:17

I went to your 30th birthday party.

1:19

You did.

1:21

That was definitely one of my highlights.

1:23

Was it?
