Who are we? Who are we?
00:03
We're the Granny Gromits! We're the Granny Gromits!
00:07
Okay, we're here today for two very good reasons.
00:10
One being we're doing the Motor Neurones, we're doing the Bucket and Ice,
00:14
we're doing the Super Freeze for Motor Neurones.
00:18
And then after that we're going to be having our first birthday.
00:22
Granny Gromits has been going for one year.
00:25
And off we go!
00:26
Woo!
00:41
Fiona, how are you feeling? How was that?
00:43
It was very cold on the head, so ice is like it.
00:47
You can feel it on your brain.
00:50
We have several ladies here whose husbands have motor neurone disease
00:55
and they approached us and said would we do a fundraiser
01:01
because there's a national campaign called The Big Freeze
01:04
and it's all driven out of Melbourne.
01:06
And Neil Danahoo is the Australian of the Year
01:11
and he set up Fight NMD.
01:13
So we thought, why not?
01:15
I think a lot of people after this would maybe go get a hot coffee and rug up.
01:19
But what are you ladies planning to do?
01:21
We'd go out in the soup.
01:23
Go and do our biggie!
01:25
I think a lot of people!
01:27
I think a lot of people...
01:28
I think a lot of people!
01:31
I think a lot of people...
