Coming up on Digit. This is my new home for Diggett for the next 1,000 episodes that we're going to do together. Exactly. And that takes us at least into our mid-70s. Yes. And I'm up for that. Me too. A lot of people have spoken to me when they've gone through loss in that way.

People reach out and it breaks my heart to know someone else will go through that. And you'll find people who understand exactly what you're going through at that moment because they've been there. We've got a story from Hillary who says, you asked if anyone got divorced over trash, as in rubbish, rubbish bins putting them out. And the answer actually is yes. All of that, right after this. Digit is brought to you by Beaver Farm.

Question for you, Joe. Do you ever wonder how you can keep a bottle of squash in a cupboard for months without it going off? It has crossed my mind. Well, this is the thing. So much squash is packed full of preservatives so that it can last for ages once opened. But Beaver Farm are. kind of the opposite to that. Hang on a minute.

Beaver Farm. Yeah. I always thought it's pronounced Belvoir, which is like the really posh squash that you see in supermarkets. So not Belvoir, but Beaver. Beaver Farm. Okay, right, this is news to me.

Yeah, Joe, it surprises a lot of people. But at Beaver Farm, they're completely obsessed with taste. So they make their drinks properly using real fruit juices, real flowers and absolutely no artificial sweetness, flavorings or preservatives. Which does mean that once you open their cord,

they need to live in the fridge so they can be enjoyed fresh. Yes, slightly less convenient. But so much more delicious. That's why you'll recognise all of the ingredients on the label, rather than sounding like something engineered in a lab. Try Beaver Farm drinks for yourself. Enjoy them fresh from the fridge, perfect for sunny afternoons, and they're available in all major supermarkets.

At Beaver Farm, they never use anything artificial because the real thing just tastes better. Hey, did you hear? Watermelon is back at booster juice all summer long. Nice. I love the watermelon explosion. And the watermelon wave. Yep. They even got a new watermelon assaye bowl this year. The one in a melon bowl.

And what does that sound like? Mmm. Like that. Booster juice. Canadian born. Blending since 1999. Welcome to Diggin at our 100th episode. I can't believe it's 100.

Have we been talking that much for this long? So much nonsense. This long, wanging on to each other for 100 episodes. Mind blowing. Well done, everybody. We've covered a lot in that time, haven't we? You will tell us if we start repeating ourselves, won't you? Because I only have four stories, as my kids have often pointed out.

It's like, oh, is it the jumping out of a plane with Keith Chagwin story again? It's like, yes, and it was one of my favorite stories. Oh dear. Yeah. Well, it's time to dig in with our fabulous diggers, and we could not, we wouldn't have reached 100 episodes without our fabulous diggers. First up, we have a question from Bridey who says, life has had its ups and downs. Oh, recently dealing with grief, a looming empty nest and midlife burnout. Hearing from you both that I'm not alone is priceless, says Bridey.

So I'm moving a time for a change and new beginnings. The new house has the most beautiful garden. I can't wait to get started on. But what do you and other diggers consider to be garden plant etiquette when you move house? Ah, yes, I've been here. The lovely lady buying my house loves my garden and went around claiming the plants. Oh, no. I've grown my bay from five inches high, the honeysuckle from a tiny propagation and the rosemary.

Oh, the rosemary. I feel so attached to them. Is it weird that I don't want to let them go? I feel so protective. Seriously, do people dig plants up and take them. Can I start moving things into pots? What would you do lots of love, Bridie? Well, first of all, Bridie, thank you for saying that it helps having this podcast and to help you know that you're not alone and you're so not. This is what we always say. It's the empathy with dig it. All the time and time again whenever I'm out. people come up to me and I'm sure the same to Zoe just going, oh my God, I'm having such a tough time. Things are so bad, it's ridiculous. It's like hilarious. And it really helps to know that there are other people going through exactly the same thing. I personally literally feel like every single Monday there is some terrible bad news that drops at some point during the day. And you're just like, what else can go wrong? How else, how bad can this possibly get? Now what? Sobridey, absolutely. And I'm really glad that it helps, just knowing that we're all going through this thing together. and we'll get there.

You just put one foot in front of the other. You keep on keeping on all those different cliches and that's all you can do. But also you can make moves, so you can move house and it can be a whole new chapter in your life and a new adventure. So I'm really happy that you're doing this. And I would say that if you've had this garden

and you've grown these plants, then I think it's perfectly fine to take a few of them with you. If they mean something to you, then it's kind of your story. It's your life story. It's what have you've created. And to have that with you in your next place, will be very comforting and you'll look out of the window and you'll see your bay or you'll see

your raspberry, your rosemary and it'll be part of your old life but moving into the new life. So I would say you can take some of the stuff with you. But then also you're going to create a whole new garden and that's exciting as well.

And so there was no way I could take all of it. And it had, you know, Joe Thompson had done the amazing garden design. And it was only the stage one and there was going to be so much more to come.

And the new owner actually has sent me pictures so I could see how it had all really flourished and done so beautifully. But I did take some roses with me. I couldn't take all of them because there was so many. And I took the special ones that meant something to me and I just putting them right back and we dug them up. There was quite a bit of digging to do and then brought them with me. And there's quite a few of them are scattered around the garden here because they weren't so difficult to move. And they've taken really nicely here. So, yeah, take some bits with you.

Yeah. Yeah. It's fine. And the new lady will, you know, can pop something else that they love in or even can say, if you let them know and say, I'm going to take the honeysuckle because it's, you know. But you can then plant another honeysuckle and it won't take long for that to, you know, take over again. But I would definitely take things with me. In fact, I've got a couple of roses that are still in pots that I took with me because there's nowhere for them to go in the ground because it's quite, you know, restrictive.

It's only small my garden. So I've kept them in pots because often I think, oh, yeah, I wonder how long I'll be here. Will I move again? Da-da-da-da-da. A bit of a nomad. So, you know, it's good to know that you can take certain things with you if they mean something to you. But also you can start again. I was looking at my garden and you think it was AstroTurf like a year and a bit ago.

And it's so huge now. Everything's really grown on and that's just in one year. So you know starting again, it won't take too long, but definitely take some bits with you. Don't decimate to the garden. Yeah. Also, I think it's really lovely to give your garden to someone else to know that it's going to thrive and live with another owner. And that's a really, really nice thing. So I think just take the stuff that really, really means something to you.

Take that. And if you want to, you can always get something new and leave it as a, as a leaving gift and just go, look, here's a honeysuckle. I'm giving this to you. You can plant it where I've taken mine out and please, you know, I hope it flourishes with you. But I think it's okay to take a couple of special bits. Can you take cuttings as well? I guess you can't take cuttings, can't even propagate. So like if you've got high ranges or, you know, I know certain plants work better in that situation. Yeah.

But Bridie, yeah, good luck on your next part of your adventure. Joe and I know people have been going through real tough time recently of late and your heart goes out to them. It always seems that someone is going through something, some terrible loss or tragedy or real tough times. And as my producer, and as God I've known her since she was about 15 years old and she's worked with me forever in a day and we're incredibly close. But she lost her partner, the love of her life, Trevor, the other day. Trev, who was an amazingly charismatic man who has done so much. He worked with Fontaine's DC. He worked with him right from the very beginning.

He's done an awful lot for the Irish music scene. And the tributes that have come through for him are so touching. They're so moving. Massif attacked did a big thing the other day. And they talked about Trev and all the work that he's done. And he's a very political creature, very passionate. And it was very moving. Yeah.

He worked with kneecap as well. And just to be with Anna when to watch her grief and to know how devastating this is to her and to all the people who loved him. And last night we were talking, she just said, you know, we'll find happiness again, Joe, we will. And she will. She's got three amazing children. She's got some people who love him. She's an incredible producer.

But, you know, people are just every single day. People are losing people they love and they're going through phenomenally hard times. And all you can do is keep on going. Keep on going for the people who are around you who love you and know that there will be a form of happiness waiting just around the corner for you. So I'm just sending love to Anna and I call her Anski with two eyes at the end, Anski and to Trev. Rest in Power, I think is what Mass of Attax said. So rest in power, Trev. You're an amazing man. Trevor, I didn't know him, but I knew of him and the amazing work he'd done and I was lucky enough to meet him with Anna one time down in Brighton where he lived. you just, I was struck by the love between them and what an amazing charismatic man he was. And I've only really learned about everything he'd done sort of recently, really. And that is a huge loss.

So yeah, I'd send out so much love to Anna and his band and his family because that's so tough. And I've been talking to another lady who has just lost her husband who had messaged me. I think sometimes when you lose people in a similar way to, you know, I don't know lots of people have spoken to me about their relatives who've had pancreatic cancer because they knew that my mum had had pancreatic cancer and people have spoken to me about MND because we lost our stepdad at MND. And losing Billy, you know, a lot of people have spoken to me when they've gone through loss in that way. People reach out and it breaks my heart to know someone else will go through that. But what you can find comfort is people further along in that grieving

journey and you'll find people who have gone through exactly what you're going through and they will understand exactly what you're going through at that moment because they've been there. But hopefully you'll be, you'll be able to see that in time and you take as long as you need in those journeys and it's so tough. But further down the line, you will find happiness again and you will find joy again. That will happen because when you're in the midst of that, you just think, how am I going to live, how am I going to carry on? How am I going to carry on for my kids? How am I going to do all these things? But that will come in time. And so, you know, we do hear from a lot of our diggers going

through real tough stuff. And our heart really does go out to all of you. And sometimes we can reach out and have little chats. Sometimes, you know, it's impossible because there's so many lovely people, but you're in a safe space here. Everyone's a survivor, I think. Everyone's surviving loss. Yeah. In some way, shape or form. And we do it how we can. So yeah, we send an awful lot of love to all those people. We've got a question next from Ben. Hi Joe and Zoe. My name's Ben. I wanted to tell you about a story of my attempt to online shopping back in the sort of early 2000s when Amazon was still kind of new. I was a student at the time and I moved into this house with like seven other guys. It was terrible. There's loads to do. And I was useless and they said to me, can you just

get a microwave? Because we haven't got one. I said, yeah, yeah, yeah. Definitely. And I went on Amazon and They used to do books, but now they do everything and they even did microwave. So I bought one and a couple of days later, knock on the door and I was like, oh, great, great. So it's the microwave. My house may open the door and he looked at this box and he looked a bit dubious and I went, yeah, yeah, no, it's all good. And I opened the box and I pulled it out and there was a picture of a microwave and it said on the side, rotating turntable and flashing lights, realistic cooking noises. And it was a toy microwave.

It was still like 60 quid But it was a it was a And I said oh it's a toy microwave And they all They sort of shook their heads By opened it up And it had like little plastic pizza slices And little plastic chicken wings

But that was yeah And I didn't buy anything on Amazon again For a long time But I wondered I want to know if you guys Have any other sort of online shopping fails Whether this has ever happened to anybody else Thanks, bye

Realistic I love that I had tiny pizza slices That's so cute, Ben. Oh, I've done so many, Ben, so many. And my family just, they will answer the door and then they'll just turn. And it's like, mother, have you been doing late night online shopping? Where I remember trying to get like, you know, like pub bench, nice pub bench where everyone sits out with a broly. I ordered this pub bench, you know, all joined together, turned up.

It was tiny like this. I mean, you could barely sit two toddlers at it. I don't know. What is that? So I've had lots of things that have turned up that have been tiny. I've also had lots of things that have turned up and been enormous and then you can't get rid of them. Oh, God. And then I have the things that are on repeat.

I am still getting the mouth tape. The mouth tape still coming. Oh, yeah. That still comes. I have tried to cancel it so many times. If anybody wants a 10-year supply of mouth tape, there've been quite a few big disasters like that. I bought 100 bottles of getting it. and milk for Nemo, which is going to keep him going to lose about.

Instead of the one. 20. I was like, I swear I only bought three. No, I've got a hundred. So they're just all in the cupboard. Do you think the internet play with us? Do you think people go, just they're bored in the office and they're like, I'm just going to up this.

The quantity. Because we can't always get it wrong. And it feels like, it's like, I swear I didn't tick repeat delivery. It's such a con. They make it so difficult as well, don't they? You're like, I clearly will only want one of those, not 20. My mum gets this glucose in supplements that have been arriving now for, I think, maybe two years and they arrive every month. And we cannot cancel the order.

And, yeah, I mean, I've tried. Cass has tried, who is like the technical genius. India's tried. And we keep going through her phone. We're trying to look at her iPad, trying to find when she first ordered it. And she's not entirely sure when she ordered it or how she ordered it. We've put in every word, every source. search that you could possibly put. We can't find any trace of it, but still it turns up and it

comes from her bank. And we're just like, this is ridiculous. She's paying this money for some glucosamine that it is impossible to cancel. And I don't know whether anybody else has got this. It drives me crazy. Every time I go over there, there's another packet of it. And I'm like, Mom, how can we stop this? Honestly, I'm going to write to The One Show and Watchdog, I'm going to get Nikki and Matt on it. It's like, why can't we cancel these things? Why is it so difficult? And this is thing also, like the money keeps being taken out of your account constantly. And I, you know, I'm not savvy. And obviously, you can't cancel things.

But like, you know, Cass is really savvy. And even he can't cancel this for your mom. It's such a con. It is, isn't it? It's like. It is a con. It's really annoying. Daylight robbery.

Yeah. It is. And all these damn things that keep turning up. You're like, I don't want this. Yeah. I know. annoying. Put it outside the front of the house.

Someone will take it. Oh, dear. Ben, brilliant. Toy microwaves. any ridiculous purchases online, things that have turned up that have been. Not what you were expecting. Thank you, Ben. We're going to take a quick break for some ads.

And the watermelon wave.

Yep. They even got a new watermelon asaipole this year. The one in a melon bowl. And what does that sound like? Mmm. Like that. Booster juice. Canadian born, blending since 1999. We love telling you our Duff stories and we love it even more diggers.

when you share with us. So here are some fabulous little bits that we've been sent recently. Inspired by your story, Joe, Liz has been in touch about losing her retainer. Hi, Liz here. Just listening to that episode about Joe and her retainers,

I literally used to leave them everywhere. And one day in my postpartum sleep deprivation stage, I've gone to the shops, and there's like a big mall here, it's posh shops, and there's like posh shops on the top floor. Anyway, I needed food. I'd got food.

And then I'd put them in the sandwich bag with the serviette. And then I'd finish my sandwich, walking around the shops, and then throwing the bag in the bin. And then I couldn't remember which bin I'd thrown them in. So then I had to search through three different bins before I found them. But the worst thing is that the posh shops

are close to the posh school that I work at. And I was thinking, oh my God, I hope no students seeming rifling through the bins at the shops. Anyway, thanks for the pod. Keep up with good work. See ya. Oh, God. I mean, the lengths you go to, because you don't have duplicates of these retainers. You have to follow them, so you have to wear it until you move on to your next retainer.

So you have to do everything you can, as Liz has just shown us, like going through bins, to find that retainer, which is, of course, clear. So it just blends in with everything. So it blends in with everything. Yeah. They are impossible to find. It's so annoying. Have you got yours there?

I lost two. I've done one. Then I lost two the other day. So I don't know whether it's possible, but I skipped to three. And then I found two in my makeup bag. So I'd obviously put it in there when we were doing the pod the other day because I want to drink a coffee. Sometimes when we're doing the pod because we're chatting for quite a while.

So I take it out. Then it was in my makeup bag. So now I've gone from three and now I'm going back to two. hopefully Dr. Tom is not watching this and being like, Zoe. But that's going to hurt because when you skip, then you kind of really feel your teeth being pulled. Then it's moving it too much. I know. I've lost mine. I've had to ask for a duplicate retainer to be done, which I'll hopefully get next week. So I'm kind of, I'm muddling like you. I've gone back to a really old one and I'm trying to put them in.

And then the other night I went to bed, didn't put them in. And then halfway through the night, I woke myself up literally grinding my teeth and feeling it chip. And my front tooth has chipped again, which is what I was doing Invisaline for in the first place. But I just literally woke up and was like, oh, what's the happened to my teeth? And I could feel little bits of amalgam, I think it's called. Oh, God, so I've chipped my front tooth already because it just keeps cutting. Oh, God, it's just a pain. Is it worth it or shall we just have crooked chipped teeth?

This is my thing. I'm like, you know the other day I was like, it's going to be 13 weeks. I'm like, at this rate, it's going to be 30 weeks. Yeah. I mean, people do it for a long time. No. It is worth it. It is worth it.

It changes the shape of your jaw. It makes you look less like a little old lady. And also, my teeth keep chipping, so you have to do it. But yeah, it's fraught with things that can possibly go wrong, as we've just heard from Liz. Next up we've got a story from Hillary who says, you asked if anyone got divorced over trash, as in rubbish, rubbish bins, putting them out. And the answer actually is yes. My husband's previous marriage came to an end over this very subject. So Hillary then says, his ex-wife was away for a business trip and he hadn't taken the bins out while she was away.

The rubbish had just piled up as it does because no one's taking it out. So by the time she was due home, he couldn't just wheel the bins out as normal and she immediately realized that he'd missed collection day. Now that drives me crazy. Instead, he drove to the local business park and threw them in the dumpster. What he didn't know was that the dumpster belonged to the Chinese takeaway and they had a major ongoing feud with the florist next door for apparently using their bins. It's a wrong dumpster to choose. That was in error. My husband's ex was relaxing at home when suddenly there was a knock on the door and a policeman were standing there.

Imagine her surprise. They'd gone through the trash and they found their address. She stood there taking a telling off from the police officer on behalf of my now husband. husband, promising she would never do it again. This was the final straw and divorce proceedings promptly followed. Wow. Funnily enough, we are massive suede fans and we love the song Trash, which is fortunate. Love the podcast, even if I'm a dreamer gardener rather than an actual gardener, much love Hillary. Hillary, you don't say how your husband is now, what his form is, whether he takes a trash out, whether he learned his lesson, or whether you're just very tolerant and you put the

trash out all the time. It's like the beginning of a drama, isn't it? with Robson Green, where him and Mark Benton is neighbour, you know, and he's taken the trash or the rubbish or whatever you call it, and then put it, how unfortunate of all the bins to choose. It was the Chinese takeaways feud with the florists that got them in the end. Yeah. Oh, you know what? If you're rowing about things like that and you're not laughing about the coincidences of things like that, then, yeah, maybe that was the end of a relationship. And Hillary ended up happy.

Hooray! Yes. So a terrible trash story, but yes, one that did divorce. People have probably divorced over less, you know. Yeah. Again, any stories like this that you want to share with us, please do it. Show notes is where all the details are. And Zoe, after you told us about who do you think you are,

and we discussed what it was like and people talking about tracing their family members and what it was like for them. And we had this lovely voice note from Jill. Just to say, I've been listening to your podcast about long-lost families. I'm adopted from birth. and I met my birth mother. We're actually very close. She is just the piece that I needed

and actually it makes me feel very completed that I have both my mothers. I have two mummies. I mean, it's crazy. My brother's also adopted, but he's had no desire to look. But yeah, I've been connected with her since I was 21. So that's a happy story.

I'm sure other stories out there aren't as good as that, but that's my story. And yeah, I'm proud. Oh, that's such a lovely positive story, isn't it? I mean, you can hear the happiness in Jill's voice, just talking about reconnecting. And it is different for absolutely everybody, how you feel when you're adopted, whether you want to reconnect, whether you want to search for your parents, or whether you're completely happy with your situation, with the parents that you have.

But that's really lovely just to hear how proud and how happy Jill is to have two mummies and that it's all worked out really, really well. So thank you, Jill, for sharing that with us. Also, Jill, you know, I watched, you watch Long Loss Family. So my mum was obsessed for Long Loss Family. And often I would see her and be like, you're all right. She had a big puffy face. She's like, I can't help myself.

I watch Long Loss Family. And I don't know whether they've just come on onto Instagram or my algorithm has found them. But I keep, when I'm scrolling, finding clips from Long Loss Family. And they never fail to make me cry. Every single time, it's always so moving. whether they find mum or dad or they find, you know, sometimes they're no longer here,

but sometimes then you find out they've got brothers and sisters they never knew they had. And it is so moving. And, you know, hearing the story, when you've got that question and you never knew if you were adopted why or your mum or dad left for whatever reason

and you never knew why. But sometimes then you find out more about the story and why it had to be that way, it's, God, it's so moving. It's like the best television ever. And Davina and Nikki do it so well, don't they? They just do it with such care. And I think the team's on that show as well because this is emotional stuff.

You really are, you know, giving huge news to people about their lives and their lost family. And it's just, oh, I love it. I'm a sucker for it. It's brilliant. What I would say, because this is following on from the story that I was telling how my dad had a very lonely, very tragic childhood. and his mum left when he was very, very young, and he didn't know her. And there was a lot of bitterness and resentment. He could never understand why.

His dad died then when he was really young, so he was brought up by his uncle. And Coco managed to trace his sister. But we only met her in later life, so only met her a couple of years ago. And it was kind of too late for my dad, because I was saying that when you watch Long Loss family, I had in my head, it was going to be this amazing reunion, there'd be hugs, there'd be tears, and we'd all keep in touch, and we'd be part of each other's lives. But my dad was too old. And he didn't really appreciate it and he couldn't quite grasp it.

And he was quite happy to just carry on with his own life. So we've got Auntie Susan, who I'm still in touch with, and she's really lovely. But it wasn't the story that you see on the television. It wasn't that because, you know, maybe 10 years ago, 20 years ago, dad would have had conversations with Susan. He would have asked the questions about why did Mum leave? What was she like? And we did get the answer from Sue that she wasn't a very loving woman and she obviously

had her own demons and we don't know why. And that should have been reassuring for my dad. but actually because maybe it was Parkinson's, whatever is going on with him, it just meant very little to him. It meant something to us. I think it kind of answered questions for us. Yeah. So if you are pondering, if you do have questions, if you are in that situation, I would say do it now, do it earlier while you can still follow it up while it still means something to you because it might be too late. So yeah, that's what I would say. But thank you, Jill, for sharing with us. That's a really, really lovely way to end this conversation, I think. It's really nice.

100th episode, we've had an update about one of our favourite diggers stories. Do you remember the poo-posal story? How could we forget Kay? Hey, girls, it's Kay here, the Ben Nevis poo queen. I call myself that because after sharing my story with you all very early on in the podcast, lots of my friends said, oh my God, I fancy going on that podcast and telling everyone that you had a poo on top of Ben Nevis. Anyway, I've dined out lots on it. I've also got you lots more subscribers because loads of people have listened to the pod since.

I was a bit miffed because a lovely lady upstaged me a few weeks later talking about the time she put her poo in her handbag on her first day of work. What a story that was. So I'm sure like me, she's going to be up there with your most memorable towels. As for my husband, he's incredibly private, but I did play it to him and to my children who are 22 and 19, and they were all cringing and saying, oh my God, why did you have to share that? But actually, we all had a good laugh about it, and they're proud of me, really. They think it's funny.

So, yeah, keep doing what you're doing. Congratulations on a 100th episode. May you have a thousand more yet. Great podcasts. Love it. Take care. Oh, okay, thank you. And if anyone missed Kay's story, she'd gone up Ben Nevis with her lovely boyfriend.

She really needed a poo and was panicking. And then he had asked her to marry him. And all she was thinking during the proposal was, When can I run and have a poo behind a rock? Ben Nevis. Kay, thank you so much because you made us laugh so, so much. And if you have a poo story, you'd like to share or, you know, Cockering story or I don't know, dildoes in the windows of a charity shop or any ridiculous

stories that you would like to share with us. You can use your real name or you might want to remain anonymous in order to share with us, but we do love hearing from you. You can find out how to get in touch with the show in the show notes. Can I just say, Zoe, look, to mark our 100th episode, The Girls are back. These are the dolls that were made of us by Jennifer Jackson dolls, if anyone likes them. And when she made them for us, Nemo was a kitten and he just completely savaged them. He was so obsessed with them. Every time I put them out, he would find them. Didn't matter how high up I put them, he'd get there. And so they were destroyed. Anyway, she's made us new dolls. And so we're, we're back. And I know you've got

our little images in the background as well. So thank you. I've got us two here. Yeah, we love all the creative types who watch the pod, we'll listen to the pod and send us bits and pieces. Thank you. If you ever want to fill our spaces here, then you are more than welcome. Loving the new wallpaper, by the way. We haven't even mentioned your, you've got new wallpaper. Oh, we forgot to mention it, yes. And it's stunning. It's like a garden surrounding you. Yeah, I chose it specially.

It's actually Cass has got this in his bedroom. And I've always been quite annoyed that he'd got it in his bedroom and hadn't got it anywhere else. And it feels perfect for the podcast because it's Digget. So, yeah, I got some gardening wallpaper and this is the new gaff. This is how it will be. It'll probably, you know, there'll be more stuff added to it. But hopefully everybody likes the way it's looking at the moment because this is my new home for Digit for the next 1,000 episodes that we're going to do together. Exactly.

And that takes us at least into our mid-70s. Yes. And I'm up for that. Me too. You may get to hear some of my stories on repeat. Anyway, let me tell us the one about the parachute with Keith Chegwin, because I haven't heard that one for at least a week. Shall I tell you about when I jumped out of a plane with Cheggis? Well, dot, dot, dot.

Have a great week. Yeah, and you too. Lots of love. Take care, Diggers. Bye. Lots of love. Love to your gang. Digit is a Persefonica production.
