04:22Right.We've sacked off the cue cards this week.We have.There's only actually one thingI really want to talk aboutbut I'll talk about it in depth.Wow.The contrasting from last week to this week.
04:37Zoe, I was howling, listen back to the app.Even Jamie replied to my story like,Huh?What?Which, you know what?I don't blame her because I thought they say myself.So last week, if you noticed,I said, I don't run, not a runner and I don't intend to run.
04:54Well, I then booked a 10K and done it on Sunday.Banged it out, didn't stop.banged it out, didn't stop10K around Shackleye ParkYou had some fans thereHad some fansYeah they wereThey message say they seen you
05:07I'm not actually seen thatYeah they didMortified nowSo basically how this came aboutWas on my 30 before 30As you knowWas run a 10K no stoppingSpecifically
05:19And I'd booked one a couple of months agoIt didn't go because I hadn't trainedAnd then I thoughtI'm not going to be able to do itAnd then last week when I was at mymom's for dinner, my brother Adam and thesegirlfriends were there and she was in theShackley Park one so I had a wee nosy
05:34and it's the only one I could do asan actual racebefore I'm 30 because the other ones are on weekendsI'm not here and they were likejust do it, just do it, you can do it, there's no pressureyou don't need to do it in a time, you can stop if you wantjust change it to taking part and a 10kand I thought you're right
05:50I'm bigging this up, I can do itand that's exactly what I done. No trainingI hadn't run a 5K sinceI'm going to sayIt was May.Wow.Remember I had a sore ankle for a few of days after I ran.That was the last time I ran.
06:04At all.So, tell us how you felt through, let's talk about the first 5K.Actually, let's talk about what you ate the night before to fuel this run.I went to Errol's Pizza.Yep.I had in my head.Also, something to note here is, I text her friends Shav and Haley.After I'd booked it and I said, what are you doing on Sunday?
06:28and they said, I think before they replied that,she said, I'll tell you why,because I've just booked to do a 10K,and they were like, well, we're running a 10K then.So they ran with me.Love that energy, love it.And Haley was like, I'll keep you going,I'll sort out, like a bit of a pace for us to stick to
06:44so that we don't need to stop and blah, blah, blah.Because what I realised is that I sprint,as soon as I start, I sprint,and then I'm utterly booked for the rest of the month.And it's hard, isn't it?Because people do tell you to slow down.And it's like, but you feel like that's a bit of,of failure if you're slow, but actually that helps you have more of the tank.
07:03Yeah, exactly. And you're thinking to yourself, I could go faster than this, but it's notabout being faster in the moment. It's about having the energy to continue. Yeah.So they did it with me. But the night before, went to Errol's pizza and I think I just hadsome snacks that night, but what I did do was I bought bagels and bananas for the morning of.Haley said, I have a bagel and banana. I thought I'll do the exact same thing. Because I wouldhave shown up to that eating nothing.Yeah, that's not good.Well, the 10 o'clock,
07:32I would have been like,just eat after it.So I had a bagel and banana,which when I was lifting it to my mouth,I could hardly get it in my mouthbecause I was shaking like a leaf.Because I was nervous.Oh, right.
07:45I was feeling the pressure.That's a shame.From myself.So anyway, had that,turned up, we did some stretching and warm-ups.And that helped, right?Which, again, I wouldn't do if I was on my own.So anyway, we get going,
07:58and I remember thinkingI saidat one pointwhat are we atbecause you had to run upand do a turnand then you ranand you also didn't have any music either
08:07did you?I didn't even have my phone on meno earphones no phoneno nothingit was justthey had their watchesthe rhythm of your breathwhich by the way
08:15I didn't noticebut maybe becauseI wasrunning at a better paceyesrather than being absolutelyout of breathat one minute
08:24soI remember sayingwhat care we are and it was like 1.5and I know you're onlya 10th of the way basically but I was pleasantlysurprised that we were at that alreadyand I felt like totally finelike not really breathless not sore
08:39happy to keep going. Were you chatting?We were chatting about you yeahwhereas when I tell you that when I was runningor trying to run 5Ks on my own at 1KI could have stopped went home. Yeahlike was fucked by that pointso I would say the first 5KI actually felt good
08:55and was likelike I'm very shocked to have I feel here.I'm not going to say enjoying,but wasn't wanting to get ran over by bus.Which I did feel like that on the way there.Yeah.And then I would say it got really hard,like really hard to dig in
09:13and really mentally speak to myself in my brainat 7.5.And I guess from 5K onwards,every step was the furthest you'd ever ran.Exactly that.Because I think I asked for distanceand it was like 5.5 or maybe.maybe about 6K.
09:29And I was like, oh, that's the forest I ever ran.And there's a big hill in Stratclay Park.And this, and this, and this.The hill was a challenge.Yeah, well, I was driving to Strathcly Park.As we ran down it.As you were running down it.So I was going past everybody and I thought, holy shit.
09:44I would have never have noticed that hill because it's alongside Strathclay Park.Yes, you come out to the road.Yeah.Not into the park.And there's not a hill in Strathcly Park.No.Well, not incline like that.So going up.
09:58up that I would say it was like borderline walk I guess but not stopping like we didn't stopand that's what I was most proud of because from 7.5k to 10 I was like hands on the hips putting myhead in the like right back like I can't do this anymore oh wow I just kept sitting myself there's nofucking point stopping no imagine your legs are still going and you're so close and the lastyou were sprinting that last bit the last 500 meters was hell on earthbecause you're pushing that bit more.But I only sprinted, I'm going to say,for not even 100 metres.
10:32Shiff was fucked as well.But they hadn't,Shiv and Haley have both done a marathonwhich was in March, March or April,and they've not ran since that.But I couldn't have done it without them,like genuinely couldn't have done itbecause I would have stopped.
10:45Yeah.And I wouldn't have paced myself the same.I wouldn't have known how to,like, do all that.I also wouldn't have been maybe like half distractedby speaking to them.Exactly.And even in the last,
10:56yeah, the last couple of Kayeleywas like you're literally nearly there like why would you stop now?So I kept like repeating that at my headand I was also saying to myselfyour legs are actually fineapart from my ankles were really sorebecause I do get sore ankles and I'm really sore nowcan hardly walk on them but done it guys
11:12It's an incredible achievement Zoeyou should be so proud of yourselfI don't think you understand how like how hard that isit's fucking hard but what I will say isand this is why if anyone follows me on InstagramI was being an overachiever on Sundaywhich fine you can do it once in a lifetimeand I did put up a story saying
11:29that I actually did no trainingI ran two 5Ks in my whole entire existenceof being aliveone when we did a park run that one timeand the one that I did a few months agoand I actually think for someone like mewho hates running but just wants to achieve itit's better because see if I had ran on
11:46on say Thursday night to try and gear myself up for itit would have put the fear of death into meyeah like I would have been like there's no fucking chanceI can do that whereas when you're just in the momentand you've got someone helping pushing youand you can. And you warmed up properly as well.Warmed up, fuelled my bodymade sure I was hydrated. It wasn't being stupid.
12:03Yeah. And you do keep fit. It's not likeyou're someone that's never exercise. It's just a differentform of exercise. I know. But I think that'swhy when I've tried to do it on my own, I felt so frustratedbecause I'm like... I work out.I know I'm not unfit.But it was just my pace and everything. I'm always going too fast.But that just goes to show you like, for example, when I took
12:19Richard to Pilates, Matt Pilates a few weeks ago.The guy is an ex-professionalathlete and a CrossFit coach and personal trainer, right?The guy does high intensity fitness.You bring him into a hot room of doing Matt Pilatesholding on one KG dumbbell and he was, guys, he was absolutely flawed.I guess people do snub Pilates.Well, they do.
12:43But it is a different level of fitness.So no matter what you're in, it's all relative to you.Absolutely.And I hate being out of breath.Yeah.I hate being out of breath.But yeah, that's my encouragement to anyone.who's thinking of it. A few people did reply to my story
12:57saying they've got one bookedin August and October, like a coupledifferent people and they were like, I've done no trainingand I was like, well, you've got time to maybe doa few wee bits more than I did, butjust do it, just go and enjoy it and do it. And you did it insub 1-10 as well. Sub-1-10.That's so brilliant, Zoe.
13:16I didn't actually have a time goal, but Haley was just like, let's pace itto that. But it wasone hour, nine minutes, 29 secondsand I'm so glad it wasbecause I imagine it was just a wee bit over.Oh, I know, you'd have been fuming.Nice achievement.I've got a medal and everything.
13:32On you go ahead.So that was my achievementand I ticked it off as soon as I sat down.I bet you believe he did.Yeah.Went boop.Achieved.Somebody messaged to say,
13:42have you logged your 30 before 30?You should have done that, Zoe.I know.Or you've definitely got little video clipsof each thing you've done though.I've probably got a lot of stuff, yeah.I think you could do a nice little roundup reelor a nice carousel on your Instagram
13:52I'm just for mems, you know?I think you should do something like that.I probably do have a few of things.I'll have a look at that.Do it, Zoe.But yeah, the other thing that I've been having a look atand it's not coming to me easily is like a cooking class.Yeah.
14:12Anyone recommend something?Somebody did comment on our Patreon cooking class.Did they?Yeah, I'll send it you to show you.I'm actually looking at Marrakesh next week with my mum to do the balloon,hot air balloon thing.Yeah.and I did see a TikTok of a cooking class over there
14:27and it's in like a family's farm.Oh, that would be perfect, Zoe.And I thought that would be so cutebut it would just obviously take awaylike a bit of a chunk of the tripbut does that really matter?Have you been to Marrakesh before?No.
14:39No, have you not?You're only going for three nights?Yeah.But then a lot of it's just going around the markets and stuffand it's like it's kind of all similar, you know?So I might potentially do that.I think that sounds lovely.Because that's quite a nice experience, isn't it?
14:55I think my mum would enjoy that too.What sort of food?We're rocking, I'm going to get swimming.Nice.I think you should do that.We'll be ticking off the hot air balloon next week and potentially that.I'm excited to go in a hot air balloon.Would you do that?
15:12Someone's got to be.Nah.I'm not that arse about that.I go on a plane.No, it looks cool.What about when you calm down though?It needs to bang off the ground.Are you going to do a skydive or is this for place to?
15:27skydive.No, this is as well as, but the skydive's just going to be booked before I'm 30.And where are we thinking of doing that?Anywhere I can get a booking.I'm actually going to message a couple of companies and just say if you've got any cancellations,like, is there a list?Yeah.And try and get it done ASAP.
15:43Although I'll be absolutely shiting myself doing that.That would be the best high in the entire world.I also don't like flying.That would be the worst part for me.I think once in a month, I'll really get me out.It's more for me.It's more trusting that the man pulls your thing.whoever you're attached to.
15:58But surely you know where that is as welljust in case something happened to them.Imagine if they actually like collapsed mid-air?Yeah, no fainted.Or you?Or both of you?I just think if it's your time, it's your time.I feel quite strongly about that.
16:10Yeah, you do, don't you?It's not going to be enjoyable way to die,but you have died in a high.Well, but are you dying on a high?Absolutely.I think so.Still need to make my lasagna.Oh, Zoe, come on.
16:21That'll be a last minute thing.I'll do that probably the night before I'm 30.Fine.Nice.I like that.Lazzania for breakfast and your birthday's birthday, not a problem.Not a problem.Not a problem.
16:33Anyway, 10K achieved, encourage anyone to do it.Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick.We also went on the radio.We did, STV radio.You were on STV radio, that was enjoyable.I actually don't know if you can listen to that on like playback.Yeah, someone asks us if they can.Not sure, but I'm sure you could.
16:52I also took Cookie to the beach for the first time.Yes, which one did you go to?True.Good old Trune.Good old Trune.We were going to go somewhere elseand thought,you know what you're getting,
17:00Mertron.Yeah.And we knew of a few placeswe could sit and eat with her.Right.So we thought,let's just go there.And it was enjoyable experience.
17:08We put a big massive ugly lead on herand just let her run free.That was a massive lead.It's about 20 metres long.Brilliant.It's actually really good for dogsthat you eitherdon't trust off the lead,
17:18which we don't.Like, are you allowed to let your dog roam off a lead?Yeah.Most people, more people go off the lead than on.Hmm.But I must say, I'm a bit funny with it, right?Because I appreciate it in maybe the beach and parks, I think,let your dog run.
17:35If they're trained and they'll come back and they won't bother others, let them run.But I do, I don't know if I agree about it as much.I know they're all really well trained if they're off,but on like pavements at roads because I just,I worry that you never know what's going to spook your dog.I know.You just don't.Yeah.
17:52And like most of my pals are really well trained dogs that are off the lead.and on the pavement my heart's my mouth the whole timebecause I'm like you justthey kind of wandered in between youand they probably would never go butwouldn't be me? No with cookie dog anywaybut that was a nice way experiencetaking her to the beach she loved it
18:09digging in the sandshe just wanted to play with her dogso that does make me sadsome of them played with hersome of them were likeno you seem annoyingthat's like all kids to JensenI do feel they're similar
18:27They are, aren't they?Cookie would run off with a stranger and so would JensenYeah, and they wouldn't look backI think that's maybe like our parenting perhapsHmmMaybeSounds a bit like usLast thing I want to see as we went to the Clarence
18:41We didAnd it was the first time I've been thereIt made a lovely experience, didn't we?They do theseBeefy humongous onion ringsYepSalt and vinegar is itWith salt and vinegar powder on top, I'll insert a photo here of the makeshift bag that they gave me to take away.
19:01Honestly, I'll bring that out in a week.No, Valencia.Valencia.Yeah.Yeah.That was amazing.Honestly, the whole food, the service, everything about the Clarence.And I said to Zerrian, I sat there.
19:14In fact, we've logged it for one of our monthly specials.So you will see it if you're on Patreon.But I was saying, I'm going to say that the Clarence is up there with.one of my favorite restaurants, top three in Glasgow, 100%.Yeah.Because I've been there multiple times now,so I think I can say that.Same way, because we got asked on the radio,
19:34like what's our favorite restaurant?And I really struggled with that question.Because it does depend on circumstances.I've got, yeah, exactly.Depends completely on my mood.It depends on who you are as a person,like what you like to eat.When people ask me recommendations,
19:48like where should I go in Glasgow?I can give you a list of 100 places.Yeah.Or none.You might think where I advise you to go is a bit hipsteror it's maybe a little bit too traditionalor it's maybe a bit too spicy.I like all of those things.
20:03Yeah, definitely.But it's like what mood am I am?So I answered Big Counter and you answered Don Costanzo,which Don Costanzo is equally one of mine as well.But with Big Counter,you don't know what you're going to getbecause the menu changes.That's where I frequent to go
20:18if I'm going on like a date night with Richard.But would I go there every single week with my pals?no, I'd probably go to Sugo.Yeah.Or somewhere with ease, that's cheaper.You know, you're kind of guaranteed to get a pretty decent meal.You know what you're getting.Consistency.
20:32And with the Clarence, I've now been there a lot, a lot, to be honest.But you've also had the main menu and the roast there.And lunch menu.So you've experienced.And I've had the roast about three times, being excellent every single time.Three times I've tried the different menu.I've been there for an event.And every time I've had an incredible.
20:52meal.Service, amazing.It's a lovely vibe as well.And it's next to that bar we like now, 1841.Oh my God, we love it.The olives.But it's the same group, if you didn't know, as Kalebrook,where we did that wonderful interview with Lorna McKney,
21:09and Brett and Caravan, where we've spoke about before.So you guaranteed for it to be pretty decent.What we've done there?You drop coffee down, your white jacket.This jacket's taking a beat in the day.Isn't it?Although it's kind of waterproof, so...Is that a thing?
21:23We should maybe talk a little bit about some new openings actuallywhilst we're on the subject of restaurants,which you've finished your list of what to catch us apart.Or am finished.Oh, okay, we hen.Let's do it.So in Finiston, you've got bar, Danny, new little small plate, wine bar.It's giving...
21:42Looks cool.Oh.Cheers.Cheers, my dears.It's same owners as Calvin Grove Cafe.Again, you know it's going to be good because they're bloody brilliant there.Yeah. There's a new place as well in the south side called Next Door. Oh my God, she's found a bubble. I've been asking for one.A new restaurant in Southside called Next Door, same owner as Corner Shop.
22:07Wow, is it? I like that name.Yeah, it's cool, isn't it? Where you going next door?Yeah, I like that, Zoe.We never mentioned this, but it's been open for a while, but we morning rush coffee spot again in the same.south side.What's really good about morning rush is it's a tiny weenie place.It's open at 7am.Wow, and not a lot are which is surprising.
22:31Exactly.So if you want a coughing, you're from that way in the morning.I've not been, but it looks really cute.Love the brandon.You don't want to support all the mainstream ones, you know?Love the vibes.Go there.What else we've got on as this are?
22:41We've also got by Babel, which is just opened,Kenning Park area, right near where we record, actually.Which looks really cool.That looks really cool.I think it's...It's going to be brunch?I think it's like breakfast, brunch and lunch.How do you spell that?
22:59B-A-B-B-B-O.Oh, nice.If you look it up on Instagram, it's by...B-Y, and then B-A-B-B-B-O.Really cute colours.It's like the blue and the brown.Love.Really cute brand and love that as well.
23:16We've also got Andersons.Oh, yes.Which is the new pub.Brilliant spot.Open up in town right across the road from Sister Midnight.And next door to Pineapple Express.Best match are you getting, Glasgow.FYI.
23:30And I actually went to the opening of it and it's a very well decorated pub.Like it's nice.Yeah.Like a bar, but it's a pub still.Okay.And it's also one of the only other places that does the tenants.Right.You know the real tenants?
23:47Yeah.What's it called again?Like a draft.beer?Yes, but there's onlythe citizen is the other place it doesit in Anderson's as the other, when it actuallycomes out of the
24:01big tenantscan thing.Whereas others it's throughI don't know, I don't know what they call it.Or they buy barrels and put it underneath.It's a beer word.Right, okay, well any beer experts will know what you're talking abouthopefully. I wonder if the citizen or anyone's
24:17got it in theirin their bio.Yeah, because my brother was telling me that Andrewsians.Have you ever done the tenants bit or?I don't really hear many people talk about that.I wonder if it's any good?No, I've not.But you know what?
24:30I wouldn't be against doing it.I wouldn't be against it.I wouldn't mind doing that as part of my list instead of something else I'm not going to achieve.Maybe a cooking class.No, I really want to do that.Yeah.When's George Square opening?Surely that soon.
24:46It's taking a while.I saw some, um, some image.of that on Instagram it looks decent.I'm just, I know we say it all the time,but I just love Glasgow.I know, me too.There's a lot kicking off in Edinburgh as well.You've got the fringe coming up, guys.
25:03Maybe I should do a little roundupof some of my favourite places in Edinburgh,but do you know what it is?It's because it feels like it changes a lot in Edinburgh.And some of my favourite places to goare a little bit further out.They're not necessarily on like...And the strip, yeah.
25:19So I do struggle to think.about that. I don't want to send people too farbut again there's so manylovely places popping up there.All like the wee likecute small kind of placesthat are nice. The leaf was lovely when I went lasttime. You've also got Sprague's
25:34just opened up and Byers Roadand you've got the bigTakerio. Takero. Takero.Takero. In Finnisdon now? Yeah so that'sin the old Raffers downhidden lane. That's right. In Finistonand that was originally in, is it Balak?Yeah, Balak.
25:56Balak area.No, yeah.Up near Lutalman.Yeah, it was around that way, wasn't it?Yeah.There's a new restaurant as well called Sunday Hatthat I've seen lots of people talking about.I believe it is owned by Caitlin and a husband that own homemade.
26:12Nice, what kind of food?Looks like Italian.Can he beat it.Great name.And I also wanted to give a shout out to,simple kitchen who I've been getting meal preps from. So when I put it on my story like,where can I get? I had honestly endless replies and everyone looked lovely and I wanted to kindof support a more smaller business because I could go and get it off like some of the bigger ones
26:33and I just don't think it's going to be that fresh but what's more fresh than getting itcooked from someone 20 minutes down the road from you and they deliver it to you that day. I'm sorry,it's fucking amazing. So impressed. I get the ick of reheated chicken and I tried it and it wasbloody gorgeous.I had one another night.So you did.Yeah, what did you think?What did you have?
26:53Really good.You had the beef.It was like a spicy beef with rice.And it had like a nice creamy sauce.And a nice creamy sauce.Oh, that was lovely.Yeah, that was nice.I think I had that one yesterday.
27:03And they did a really nice overnight.Oh, Richard said it's honestly one of his favorite things he's had because for himcoming in late twice a week at around half nine, it is perfect for...So easy.But, yeah.And it comes straight to your door.Big shout out for them.Right, what have you been up to, Tent, Tellers?
27:23Yeah, I went to Oben.Mm-hmm.Really lovely weekend.I got invited to a place, and I still need to share it on Just Jess.But it's called Glen Cruton House, and I got to stay in their new villas.Looked gorgeous.Hands down, the nicest cabin, shall we say, but it's a villa that I've stayed in in Scotland.Love it.
27:48Need to be honest about the actual hotel itself thoughbecause if I was a paying customerit would be very expensive to do what we just did rightand I'm absolutely grateful for itbut the whole point of me going to somewhere like this is to be honestI was to influence someone to goand pay for it would I be happyand would I want them to pay that money?
28:09Definitely think the villas and cabinsyou will have an incredible time.Jensen was able to go, you've got your own jacuzzithere's a sauna it's you've got alpacas on siteLike peacocks, a peacock was fucking walking on our bloody balcony.It was amazing.But the actual castle, Glen Cruton House, it is wonderful, right?But it's very Scottish folklore, sort of gothicy.
28:36Everybody that stayed there that we came across was lovely, but they were all American.And I guess what you have to think about is with these places that are in the highlands and Fairfax,to them, right?They have to capitalise on Scottish, on tourism, sorry.Because they don't make all that money all year round.So their menu are massively catered towards tourists.But this menu, it wasn't suitable for Jensen to go.So I never ended up going.
29:00I hadn't heard great things from this tasting menu and it looked expensive.You know, they put glitter on a lot of things.It's quite like style over substance, shall we say.Like gimmicky maybe.Yeah.Now, if I was staying there for the full weekend, I wouldn't want to go and do that again.No.So there's sort of like, you can only go and do that experience the once.
29:18You know what I'm like with dark spaces and dark rooms?It's just not really my thing.But beautiful.Like it had a big massive piano.There's a pool table in there.It's quite quiet.It's creaky.You know, that sort of vibe.
29:31Yeah.Then I had the afternoon tea there the next day.I didn't enjoy it at all.Really?Right.No.And guys, I'm 100% give honest feedback to the team.And they were wonderful.
29:44Can I say like they absolutely want to hearall the thoughts.Yeah, so they know this, but I just have to be honest.You know what it was? It didn't matchthe vibe that I experiencedin the villa 100 yards away.Yeah, and it just felt all a bit offcompared to that. It was, hands down,
30:01the nicest place I've stayed in along time. It is Scotland probably, like,in terms of that sort of style ofovernight that you're after.Yeah, but it didn't matchit. There was a place I stayed not too longago last year down in the late districtand I had
30:18It was a gifted stay.Do you remember this?Yeah. And it was wonderful.I thought the facilities were great,but the service really lacked and the food was terrible.I gave the feedback to the people,and they didn't want me to share it at all.And I basically said,
30:32I'm going to share this,but I'm going to be honest with my followers,and they didn't want me to.Yeah.So you kind of like,the last thing I want to do is promote someone to spend a lot of moneyand then feel like just what the fuck.No, I know.
30:45It feels like a bit of a pish or doesn't it?And when they are,amazing and they want to hear the feedback.That makes a difference.Yeah.And I would also want to point out that I would never speak about somewhere negatively onlineif I had nothing good to say.Yeah, you would just not speak about it at all.
30:59I think that could be terribly damaging for a small business.I'm just not that sort of person.I feel like negativity is so massively praisedand they don't understand how damaging it can be unless someone was a right fuckinggun.I know, but then there's also like, it's all just matter of opinions.So like you could actually severely damage and ruin a business just because you don'tlike it but maybe
31:17exactlyand allthe American touristswe're bloody loving ityeah so that's what I meanit's like it's not your styleit's not my stylethere's nothing wrong with it
31:25it's just not your styleyeah I ended up going toon the Friday nightwhen we didn't go for the fine dining experiencewe went for just some good oldfish and chips at the openfish and chip shop it's Rick Stein'sfavourite place went up to a nice play park
31:37there the actual harbouringopen's gorgeous if not beenyou could also get the ferry over tois it mullyou could go and do some nice tripsand then on the Sundaywe had to changecheck out about 11.
31:49Went to a restaurant called Tyntrush.I'm hopefully, I've pronounced that right.But it's just about 10 minute drive from where we were.And this was excellent.It was like a pub in the middle of nowhere.Check them out.I think they have like a Michelin or AA rosette.They also catered to tourists because they have to.
32:09But their menu is simple but done well.Like we had cauliflower cheese soup,an incredible Sunday roast where the portions were,massive. Everything was piping hot. Service was lovely. It was simple in there. Great value for money.They were great with Jensen. Can't recommend that one enough. Like if you're going to go and do it,please head there because it was so lovely. And the couple that owned it as well, they were fromGlasgow and they moved out there to try, they bought out this old pub and they've just done itso incredibly well. So yeah, add that to your list when you're on your little road trips.
32:44There you go. I'll chat to Aubin.Why not?Why not?Yeah.The midgies, yeah, they're bad, you know.And when we were going to the alpacas at the hotel, they were saying that they were so bad this year more than they've ever, ever seen before.I don't know.Does the heat make it worse?
32:59Like dampness?Like dampness, heat.Oh yeah, it's dampness, isn't it?And the alpacres and that were like kicking and itching.Oh, that's a shame.I know, but they were very well looked after.They loved a carrot.I'm loving animals more and more by the day.
33:14Might be a vegan.I wanted to do the five things worth the money trends.Oh but so we are. I don't know my answers to this.Well, I'll tell you mine.Okay.Number one, Botox.Oh, without a doubt.Number two, clean coal towels.
33:31Isn't that just like a flannel?But I get them on subscription every month.It's quite like an unnecessary expense.Sounds like wastage.Instead of just using a towel that's bad for your skin.Right.Fine.Do you wet your feet?
33:45face and then dry it with the clean towel or do you wet the clean towel and wipe your face withthat? Dry it with the towel, dry it with the thing. Got it okay. Yeah. Composite bonding. I couldn'tagree more. A cleaner. Yeah. If they're good. If they're good. And my final one is anythingM&S. Yeah, you've made it in life if you're an affidado or you're buying from waitrose. That'swhen you've got cash monies. You get cash. Yeah. You're not looking about price as in the supermarket,although I don't do that. You are not looking at for yellow.stickers in store, they give you the ick.I love a yellow sticker.
34:19My mom loves a yellow sticker.You know, M&S is great to go.It's like, is it 7pm?Yeah, because they usually shut about 8, I think.They're quite an early.They shut early as well.They don't need, they don't need to.No, we don't need to be working late nights.
34:33No, they don't.Right, tell me yours, think.Come on.Okay, now.I'm going to say the aura ring.Yep, I really like that.Yeah, I'm liking the aura ring.Regular lymphatic drainage massages.
34:47Definitely.You've already said Botox, I can't say that.Okay, a facialist then.Someone, take away aesthetics.I'm talking about facials and stuff to.Skin hailed.Can I say like skincare?Yeah, skin hail.
34:59Shit, you said teeth.I'm going to personally have to say,even though I don't have this,but I would love to if I could afford it,would be solid gold jewelry ear stack.Okay, yeah, mm-hmm.Because I'm allergic to nickel.That's a good one.
35:14Plopper, good shit.it in every hole in your ear.But the reason why I think that's a good one is because it would last forever.Absolutely.I want to call it Ashty and Meyu, by the way.Like I spent hundreds of...I was just thinking that.Hundreds of pounds that saw, Zoe.
35:27Do you remember that? About three years ago now.Nearly fainted when they told me much it was going to be, yeah.Because I have got no choice.If I'm having an earring up here, like I have to have it as real gold.And then all the gems fell out, went into the store and complained,and they said, oh, we can give you a 30-pound gift voucher.I haven't in once because of the wee class, but the back.you know like when it becomes it's not clicking in anymore.
35:47Yeah.And I think because it was either just over a year or I maybe didn't have a receipt,but I was like, but you can see it as your earring though.You can literally see it.And you can see that it's not clasping.So regardless, does it really matter?Right.And then do you know what I would love to say as well, which I think would be amazing?
36:05But this will bring me on perfectly to my next thing.I want to tell you.I would say private healthcare.I don't have it, but I really want it.Mm-hmm.Because health as a whole for me,me would be worth its weight in gold.Oh, absolutely.
36:19Do you know what I mean by that?I think there's no money.I don't think anything matters in the world.Good health matters to me.Yeah.And like looking after myself.But obviously I don't have that.So let me think of something else.
36:31What expensive and worth it?A child?Okay, right.This brings me on to me speaking on the pod saying that.I feel like that's something wrong with me, my allergies.I've got something.I don't think I've spoke about this in the pod,but I've got really bad malasma at the moment.
36:49You can't see it all that much on the pod,but it is coming back up and me and Emma,we're working on it, guys.I had a one-to-one chat with Georgiathat she came on the podcast, Balanced Boss,to speak about that Dutch test.I've been interested in it since she mentioned it to me.Not gifted guys whatsoever.
37:06I was going to pay for it with Georgia,and I still am.But she said to me,it's definitely worth you getting your full bloods donewith the doctors, as well as this.There's no point in pain privatelywhen you can get it with the doctor.But I said, oh, bloody hell, you know,
37:19I'm obviously sitting there doubting the system thinkingthey're not going to be interested in me.I can't get an appointment.So anyway, I called.I was like, I just want to have my blood's done, please.A doctor will call you back.Doctor called me today, and I'm going to be honest.The moment that they phoned me, it was a man.
37:35And I thought, no chance.Not a fucking chance here.He was amazing.I love to heed it.I was like, you know what?I'm calling up because, you know,when you just know that something's not quite very,right. I'm feeling quite tired all the time, which I said, you know, it could be normal.
37:50I have got a toddler, but I'm struggling with energy at the moment. I'm constantly bloated.I mentioned about my allergies being really rife and my cycle being extremely long. I said,I don't know what's going on. I don't know if that's all linked, whatever. And every singlething that I mentioned, he mentioned the blood test that I need for it. Then I said, you know what,10 years ago, I was told that I had polycystic cystic ovaries and I was checked servically twice forthem but I never had the physical blood testfor it which Georgia mentioned on the podright you remember and I was like no I never got a blood test
38:21yeah he's like right so he listedeverything that he's going to get sortedfor me and I was fucking shookso all I wanted was my full blood countbut he's like I'm going to get you andI apologise if I say any of these wrong because I was writingthem down as you were saying it but I don't know what halfof them fucking men not seen them running down yourself
38:37yeah full blood countuse and ease LFTs TFTscalcium albumintestosterone C-A-Y1-25, which is the ovary one, I think.Ferritin B-12 folate.And all I've got to do is call up the number that he saidand it's going to arrange it for me.
38:54And I'm getting all these bloods done.I honestly felt a big massive sigh of relief.I was like, oh, thank you so, so much.That's so good though, isn't it?I just don't know if it's, I personally think it's stress.Yeah, it could be.It could be, I'm not saying I'm stressed.Help me.
39:08Your body's under stress.Yeah.From just being always on with like Jensen and things.I think so.Mm-hmm.I always feel a bit like,your head's just a million miles and out at all times.Yeah.
39:18Well, that could be it.So, you know what?What I'll do is I'll get the test.Keep it updated.Yeah, because he said to me,you need to go and bring your doctor,and they'll go through it for you.So watch this, I'll have nothing.
39:29But then what I'll do then is I will buy the Dutch test.And there was another one that she was saying,it's like, is it G-I-Map or something,which is more your gut health.Yeah, that's right, yeah.Which I could pay it.That was a bit more.That was 300-quid, that one.
39:42The Dutch test would be all transparent,yours was 208 I thinkwhich I'll definitely do that one. I think I canjustify the other one at the moment.The Dutch one's the more hormonal focusedhormone focused one? Yes.Yeah that's right. I think. Yeah.So I'll keep you all updated and then if I don't have
39:58any good results from this then I'll look at furtherprivate testing. You know because we said we wanted a full body scan?Yeah, we'd love. That Randox health in Glasgowlooks a good one as well. I'd love that. Do you know where else does it? Hold on.Holon. Holon and Great Weston Roaddo loads of testing. Really,thorough ones as well.I'd love loads of tests at that as well.
40:17I just think we should all be doing it,but it's hard when it's difficult to get NHS to do it for youbecause it needs to be that there's a problem.Yeah.But there shouldn't need to be a problem.But I do think...Like I said, like I had every...I didn't have any faith in that manner.
40:33But this is just to let anyone know.If you feel the same way or you want to get a test,ask for it.Yeah.But what I was going to say was actually make sure you mention the factthat you're maybe quite knowledgeable to an extent.about other things that could help these thingsand that you're already doing that.
40:48Yeah.Because I think the struggle is probably that people gojust in like such alike bad mood already about it,just that I'm not going to get help but I feel tired all the time.You've got a bit of knowledge at least because then they'll think right,okay, they're actually concerned about this.It's not just like, I'm tired, what can you do?
41:06Yeah, because you've got a million people doing that.And we were speaking to Heather who owns niche earlierbecause she was talking about gut health issues.and you know there's certain things that could be wrong with you what was it called sebo sebo yeah where it's something to do in your small is it your small intestine it was either izzie or georgia that said it on my pod and you can take pre or probiotics for it and for gut health but if you have this problem it actually makes it worse yeahthat's wrong about me now yeah well it's just concerning isn't it bloody hell but that's because we're all influenced by things online though and you're taking all these bloody multivitamins where you're probably taking too much too muchmuch iron or magnesium or zinc in all these supplements, you're overdoing it because you don'tactually look, you're just following at what someone online said. It's like, you know what,this made me feel ten times better. I know, so I'll take it too. I know. Hard. Right, should we do
42:00a couple dilemmas? Sexy story when your boyfriend's fantasy leads to a plot twist. Go on then,let's go.When I first met my boyfriend, he expressed either fantasy he'd never acted on. He'd loved to,watch his partner with another man.Now, I'll be honest, my immediate reactionwasn't a good one. I was like,hang on, does this mean you don't actually love me?Cue, many, many conversations.
42:26Over time, I realisedit wasn't about replacing me or wanting someone else.It was just something that turned him on.I wasn't convinced I'd ever wanted to do it in new life,but I dipped my toe into the idea with a bit of dirty talkin the bedroom. It stayed firmly in the fantasy category.Until one random night,a couple of years into a relationship,
42:44we were staying in a hotel, having a few,few drinks at the bar and I got chatting to a guy.Spicy Marg number two went straight to my fanny and I remember all those conversations with my partner.I thought, fuck it, let's see if he's actually serious.So in what was either my boldest or most ridiculous moment to date, I whispered to the guy in thebar that my partner would love to watch him fuck me and gave him a room number.I walked back to my partner looking far too pleased with myself and casually said I've justinvited someone back.
43:14The look on his face was priceless, equal parts of excitementand yeah right.We went back to the room and shortly after there was a chap at the door.Loll, here we go, I'm thinking, oh shit, get me five more spicy margs.We took things slowly, kissing and touchingand I kept glanced over at my boyfriend to make sure he wasn't raging.I've genuinely never seen anyone look so delighted in all my life.What?
43:37The man looked like a cat that got the cream.Afterwards, once our unexpected hotel guest had left,my partner was absolutely beamingsafe to say it wasn't justa fantasy after allthat was two years ago and sincethen we've explored consensual non-monogamytogether a handful of times
43:55sometimes it's just me having sex with a guywhile he watches sometimes he joins inand the biggest surprise of it all is that somewherealong the line I ended up enjoying it toothe funniest part the woman who once thoughtif he loved me he never want this is now the same womanwho loves the thought of watching him with another womanSo women are involved as well now?
44:15It's definitely easier to find a willing single guy to take part than a willing single woman.So if there's any sexy willing single ladies or couples in Glasgow in surrounding areas, hit me up.What the fuck?That's mad.How can we hit them up with her though?No, I know.It's synonymous.Synonymous.
44:37Maybe you'll be me. I know who you are.I think that's crazy.But in a good way.Can you imagine whispering to someone saying fuck me?YeahOh I can'tI could actually butNot sober
44:53No definitely notBut I don't know if I would use the word fuckYeahWhat would you say shagDo you want toCome back to my roomHe-he and watch some togetherWho else my boyfriend and watch us
45:11FairI love thatSend us more of thatKinky shitI meanYou lot are out thereWe know you existSo
45:22Tell usLet us knowWe also had a messageSaying Mondays are for the girlsI like a misstrend we've got going onGiving you all adviceMaking you have fun again is what we'll say
45:37YeahI've seen it everywhere againI sent Zerri one this morningfrom a brand that was sharedferal girl summerand why and how we're allbecoming fun again.We are though. We are as facts.
45:52Okay.Thank God by the way.Thank God we need to be fun again.Just wanted to write in on the back of today's episodewhen you were chatting about the group of girlswho send in voice notes to one another on a Monday.My friends and I do something similar.Life gets busy and we're all in different paths at the moment
46:08but we really do value our friendships.We're all from Glasgow.I currently live in Dubai and one of the girls is about to move to Australia and two are still at home.Every Monday since I've moved, which has been about six months now, we have sent in a ten-picture dump into our group chat.Things we have been up to from the previous week. Again, no pressure for it to be anything crazy, just a few picks to show how your week's been.With a little message to explain what's been happening. It really makes me feel like we are all still connected and makes you romanticise the little things in life.Sending it on a Monday is really uplifting and on a Monday.is really uplifting and honestly I now really look forward to it instead of getting the Monday blues
46:43thought it may be a good idea for those in similar situations to keep up to date with your bestieswho you may not see very often. I love that. No, I really love that. That's nice as well.I do like when you say in the chat what's everyone up to this weekend, voice note please.Yeah. And everyone tells you what's got fans. Because I'm really bad for assuming you're doingfuck all if I don't know what you're doing. Yeah. Or if it doesn't involve me.They must be bored without me.They must be doing nothing if I'm not involved.No, I love that.
47:13That's lovely.Let's go over to Patreon now thenbecause we've got some more updates on people sending in their thoughts on it.Is it Masseter Botox?Oh, yeah.I need to discuss that.Because there's been lots of fours and lots of against.And I want to talk about something that I'm starting with Jensen as of.
