It's happening now at BH I just did your Gavin and
Stacey impression of me on the most recent pod like and it was terrible. So here you
go. Here's my version. If truth be told, you're a cracking mum. Have a tidy Mother's Day.
It's not actually Ness. It's Sian from High Wycombe.
But I ran Gavin and Stacey's quizzes throughout lockdown online as Ness.
So there you go. There's my Ness impression for you.
That is excellent. Fantastic, absolutely brilliant.
I got my foot down.
I can do no more.
No, that was terrible, sorry guys.
Oh, I love it.
I can't do it.
I always thought that your impression
was the best I'd ever heard.
Yeah, oh thanks, babe.
She pissed all over you.
You ruined it.
Brilliant.
And she just come out, was in it,
and then just came out of it.
Amazing.
Naturally.
Can you come and do a little quiz for us? It'd be great wouldn't it? Talking of impressions, that has to be one of my
favorite things to watch. People doing impressions? I find it, I really enjoy it.
Agreed. You know when Britain's got talent, if there's an impressionist I'm
obsessed. But if it's not very good it's so awkward awkward. Oh, yeah, only when they're really good.
Like that, I could...
It's really good, really clever.
I wish I could do impressions.
Jamie Balfourick's brilliant at impressions.
Yeah, he does...
What does he do?
He does the football one all the time.
Oh, yeah.
And only falls.
He's great.
Got one of them.
I phoned him the other night about the Beatles documentary,
which by the way I'm obsessed
with.
And he was doing Ringo, John, John Irish, really.
Yeah, he's fantastic.
Well, I love it.
There's a guy on TikTok, young lad, he's, no one knows where he's from.
Oh, because he does all the different, yeah.
And you're convinced when you hear it, you're like, oh, yeah, he's definitely from London.
And then he does Scottish.
And you're like, no, he's got to be Scottish.
It's incredible.
I know, but it's like some actors.
You know the girl in Heaven and Stacey who played Sonya?
Yes.
She's in This City is Ours.
Oh, Jack really wants to watch that.
Scouser.
Amazing.
You know, he's just amazing.
I could never do that.
Yeah, it's very good, very good talent to have that.
You can get voice coaches and help.
Oh really?
Yeah, of course. It's a big job.
So, well, speaking of that, there's a friend of, family, friends.
Friend of a friend.
She, well, my sister-in-law's friends.
She does the voice of like the train next stop arriving. Oh yes.
Well that's her job.
I can't remember if she was just really...
How did you get that job?
Insane and then we were at a wedding and she was just doing it and I was like I could listen
to you all day.
That's not her job.
I can't remember if she's just really good at it.
No I can't remember.
I'll have to find out.
Okay.
So good though.
If you're listening, let me know.
Welcome to Life With Nat and that's Niece's.
Hello, hello.
Hello.
Lovely sunny day.
Hey, Fever.
It's bad.
We've just had our jab so, haven't we?
We've all jabbed up.
I'm jabbed up.
Well, let's hope it.
I've never had this.
I've never had it before.
Well, I've had it and it did work.
Did it, Nat?
Yep, did work.
When did you have it? A few years ago. A couple of years before. Well, I've had it and it did work. Did it, Nat? Yep, did work. When did you have it?
A couple of years ago.
Oh, why would you not have it again?
I just missed it.
Because she's erratic.
And I just forget to do things.
I have self-maintenance issues.
You know?
You do.
Self-maintenance issues.
You really do. Yeah
So did I tell about the eyebrow pencil did we talk about that on the phone?
Yes, we did
Then I'm with her a week later. She didn't buy another one. She's like opening this box
I've got this love got a brilliant new eye pencil. I was recommended it. So now she's got three good because she needs them
no I've had my eyebrows tattooed have you um you can tell but they're just a bit they've just faded
I need to go back to her yeah why is everything I do though never quite right any ideas yeah I'm
not sure yeah I don't know it's weird it odd behaviour. But yeah, you definitely do have self-maintenance issues.
Yeah.
That's a really good point.
Although I can't talk at the moment with my grey hairs.
Speaking of hairs...
Go on.
Anyone ever just get one random hair that just grows from their forehead?
Yeah.
No, yours is quite low down.
Look. Look at yours.
Oh wow. Oh my goodness.
And it's just there. And once I had one here.
Yeah, do you remember? It was a really long hair.
And it was as long as my hair, but I swear to you, I'd never seen it before. And one
day it was just there, down, like it had grown overnight.
It is amazing. But I feel like that's where the hairs that come out of my moles and nipples.
There's nothing there and then suddenly there's a large coarse thick hair.
Oh yeah I get a little chin one.
Do you?
Yeah I've got one chin one here.
Yeah me too.
Good.
I quite like it.
No I do remember when you had that one.
It was lit, I swear.
But no I've got those weird ones.
When I say it was...
What was his name?
It was a lovely football match.
Jimmy Hill.
No that's not true.
She did.
It was a great football match.
No that's not.
Yours is more like regrab. If you're a lovely footballer. It was, look. Jimmy Hill. Lovely.
No, that's not true.
Oh, she did.
You're a great footballer.
No, that's not.
Yours is more like regrowth and I've got a lot of regrowth happening here, which is cute.
Interesting when you say that, but the other day when I did that, I feel like I'm boarding
a little bit.
Receding.
Receding.
Yeah, slightly.
Quite possibly.
What do we think about that? Well, I've got really bad ball patches here. It's a bit. Receding. Receding. Yeah. Slightly.
Quite possibly.
What do we think about that?
Well I've got really bad bald patches here.
Could be stress.
Probably got extensions.
Yeah.
We've had them for 15,000 years.
Really?
What, what could I use?
Nioxin.
That's what you want to use, nioxin shampoo.
Does it work though?
Really good.
Thickening.
Lovely.
But what about that, just that one patch?
I don't know, Maria. I'm not a hair specialist.
Little toupee?
Like a piece?
Do you remember only Fools and Horses when they had the little ponytail?
Maybe just get a sort of patch of hair.
Color match it. Get Becky to do you a small patch maybe.
Oh don't, it's bad. Isn't there like an oil or something?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Alright you're fucking useless you two.
Just look it up. Research.
Yeah it's bad.
Can I ask why you've put two pictures up of a rubber ring and a crocodile on our WhatsApp?
Because I went to B&M.
Yeah.
At the weekend.
I've walked in and these fuckers are staring.
You didn't come with me. Love B&M. Yeah, how much? At the weekend. I've walked in and these fuckers are staring.
Lovely, isn't it?
No, I went on Saturday. Did a little Sostrine Green shop, didn't I?
Perfect.
It's going to be the definition of that shop.
The definition of that shop. There's IKEA coming to Harlem.
Can you Adam and Eve it?
Let's go over. I've never been to IKEA in my life.
Let me...
I think I've been once.
What?
Never.
Ever.
Never? Never. Never. Nether Street. Never been,
never been, never bought an item from Ikea. You would love Ikea. Oh no, I'm fucked. It's
insane. And I sent it to Maria and Mel and they're mugging me off. I didn't mug you off.
April Fools. That was Mel. It's the first. I said what, so no one can send any coms out
on the first of April. That is quite a risky thing to do.
But it is true.
No, you know it like, you know ones that aren't true.
This is true.
Well, I didn't know, but it's exciting times.
It's only going to be a small one, but it's going to be good.
Anyway, walking to B&M, what's staring me in the face?
An inflatable crocodile and an inflatable dolphin.
Eight pounds. Eight pounds.
Eight pounds.
Are these on the larger side?
The big ones.
Did you buy them?
No I didn't, I was so tempted but I thought if I buy it,
mum will think I've got serious issues.
And then, this is all I wanted for Ruby.
Five-o.
Five pound.
Yeah, you've got to put them up online.
You've got to have bought her that. No, I was meant to post them and I haven't but I will. No, I needed for Ruby for holiday. Fiver. £5. Yeah, you've got to put them up online. You've got to have bought her that.
No, I was meant to post them and I haven't but I will.
You must.
No, I haven't bought her that.
I should have bought it.
It was a fiver.
I'll get it.
Thank you.
She doesn't really need it now though but yeah.
How mad is that?
Yeah, it's crazy isn't it?
What are the charges?
So, yeah, so if you're going on holiday, I must say B&M had such good stuff.
I love it.
Just everything you can think of.
It's there. It's there. Yeah just to make you buy stuff you don't need. I know and I
could have. I bought some lovely little new mugs, little lemon and orange mugs. Did you
need those? No. They had lovely big citronella candles for the garden. Nice. But are they
good ones? They look really nice. Did you get me one? No. Perfect. They had a
inflatable hot tub. Yes. 350 quid. Yeah. Mmm. You should get one of those. Yeah, it's sick. Get that.
No, I'd like to get a proper one. You're not gonna get a proper one this year. You're never gonna do it.
Well, I'm not spending 350 pounds to get another one. No, you won't. You can give it to me. No you won't.
It's like the peloton all over again, the fucking things down there. It's never been sat on. I've bought it off you. No you won't. You can give it to me. No you won't. It's like the peloton all over again the fucking things down there. It's never been sat on. I've bought it off you.
You're a knob. It's so good. You're both dickheads. I said to her, it's never going to get you. No you're so negative. Anyway next thing. When you hurt my bum. Me too. You've got it. You're never gonna use it Yeah, but who's the fool now? Cuz I got my wonga and you're sitting in your house
And it's gonna get five for us. I mean I'll buy it off you for a five
In fact, I might go home and see if there's anything else I want to sell to Natalie
It's terrible. It's double the price. Natalie just gives us stuff. We sell
Pissed-take mate. No, I had to sell that sell the stuff. It's piss-take, mate.
No, I had to sell that.
That was ridiculous.
No, and you gave me a good deal for it.
Do you think you bought it for more than she bought it for?
No, and then I gave her the shoes, everything, and then she's bought more shoes for the kit.
I mean, it is crazy.
It's crazy stuff.
It's a shame. It's a real shame but I don't like
cycling because I can't ride a bike. I thought cycling, I'm stationary it'll be fine. I hate it.
No I think you should explore. Nope don't like it. You're not moving your arms, you're not moving
your back. It's bad for your bones. It's not good for you. That is why I have to. Who said it's not good for you?
Your doctor. So the doctor thinks it's better to be a fat bitch than go cycling.
No.
I'm not saying that's you, by the way, just in general.
Walking.
Yep.
For people like myself who have got weaker bones.
You did say that might not be true.
Well, she has got weak bones.
I have.
I have.
Well, you haven't.
I have got weaker bones.
Weaker than who? I have got weaker bones.
Weaker than who?
Weaker than your average.
Weaker than average bones.
And at my age, he said, walking, strength training, Pilates, or a little bit of light
jogging.
He said, sitting on a bike is very bad for your hips and back.
So the one thing I've got is not good for me.
Why don't you get Mark to put it on Facebook for a tenner and someone will pick it up?
No, and I said, and I've been wanting to get rid of it. And Mark keeps saying, please, no, we're not selling it. I don't you get Mark to put it on Facebook for a tenner and someone will pick it up. I was going to and I said I've been wanting to get rid of it and Mark
keeps saying please no we're not selling it I'm gonna get on it and he hasn't been on
it. Yeah Eliza and Mark should be using it. They should. Nice. No it's being the outdoors
get rid of it piece of shit. Get rid of it and get outside. How much would you have to
sell it for? Well we'll have to see does anyone want a Peloton? Meet and Greet as well?
Meet and Greet at the door. Peloton, grand.
Not. With all the shoes?
No, 1500.
It's never been used. It's been used about four times.
It's like for three grand's worth of stuff.
Oh really? 1500 quid.
That is embarrassing.
Meet and Greet. And we'll chuck in Meet and Greet the Nats nieces too.
And we can give you a...
Oh you're gonna come now?
I wasn't thinking about it before that but now you've really swerved me.
We can give you a demo because we're pros at it aren't we?
I can show you how not to get on it.
I can't even when I get the shoes on and I'm trying to clip them in.
Oh you're trying to clip it in and that's a workout in itself.
And then you nearly break your leg getting off.
Oh my goodness.
It's not good for my ankle though. I know that clicking in is not good for my weakened ankle. You're trying to click it in and that's when you get out of it itself. And then you nearly break your leg getting off. Oh my goodness.
It's not good for my ankle though.
No, that clicking in is not good for my weakened ankle.
And then I'm sweating before I've even started by getting the shoes in.
Love, I used to like doing a little trip around Italy though.
Nice, with my bifolds open.
Felt like I was outside.
It was cute.
How long did you go on?
Couple of days.
Ha ha ha.
That really hurts your bum.
I even bought the shorts with the panties.
Me too.
Excuse me.
I'm really not well.
No, I know.
In many ways.
So anyway, yeah.
Gosh, anyways, yeah.
Just a nail update for you guys.
Look how good I am.
They look lovely. Oh wow. And my you guys. Look how good I am.
They look lovely.
Oh wow, and my toes are all lovely.
That's ridiculous.
You had those done last week.
Not true, week before.
Last week, week before.
It wasn't Friday.
How time flies.
I can honestly tell you that that was on
when I was sat watching Big Brother last night.
She is now showing us her little finger. Well, that was on. I was sat watching Big Brother last night. She is now showing us her literal finger.
That was on.
I went to bed.
I went up into the bedroom and it was off.
Miraculously pinged off on its own, Maria.
I swear.
I went up to bed and I went, oh, fuck, nails come off.
Just like that.
Have a look at mine.
Who says that?
Is that bad?
Ken Dodd.
Oh, just like that.
Oh no, it's Tommy Coopah. Tommy Coopah.
It's Tommy Coopah. Just shut up.
She was thinking.
What did Ken Dodd do?
I was thinking it was something.
It was the wrong...
No, that...
Oh, my eyes. They look awful.
The water on my eyes is not nice.
They're really long for you. No, the water on my eyes is not nice.
They're really long for you.
They're great, they're all growing out, they're all long.
I need to get mine done this week, so any childcare services wouldn't go mis.
I'm really busy this week.
Should I mow?
No, I'm going to need some support maybe first day.
Tomorrow, no I can't first day.
I'm busy Wednesday, Swimming and all that.
Oh God, my eyes, that's funny.
That warmed the cockles up, didn't it?
Yeah, it was lovely.
I needed that laugh.
It was nice, it's all a good laugh.
So me and them, excellent, get down there.
Yeah, it's great, it's just good.
All those little shops, I just like looking.
I've got some like Easter bunny bits.
Oh, I've got it.
The kids' little bits.
Excuse me.
Yeah.
What do you mean?
It's Easter.
You mean your bits
and then the Easter bunny arrives Sunday?
Yeah.
Yeah.
What are you talking about?
What kids listen?
I mean, what kids are listening to this pod?
A lot.
Sorry?
Surely not owls with the swearing.
A lot of people do.
You're the only one that swears.
Sorry?
Mum says you swear so much.
I swear a lot last time.
She said I swear too much.
I said yeah, fucking do.
Don't worry about it.
I said you don't moan when Pete Wicks
effs and blinds on Stan Redifant.
Oh no.
She's obsessed.
She has a go at me.
Yeah, Easter prep, loads of stuff.
My Easter stuff is up and running.
Got it all out.
Yeah, I saw your tree, I need to get my tree down.
Just brightens the place up, doesn't it?
Yeah, I've got some little wicks.
It makes it look fucking messy.
It's awful, all that shit everywhere.
Excuse my swearing.
What's what?
It's just stuff.
I'm trying to eliminate stuff in my house. Imagine putting a tree in the
middle.
It comes out for two weeks. It comes out of a box. I do it. It looks nice. It goes back
in the box.
It stresses me out. I can't bear all this toot everywhere.
No, I've got...
No, it's fine.
I bought some new little eggs to go on it as well from South Stream Green.
Did you see the window sill?
Did they have any trees at South Stream?
Yeah.
Oh, maybe I'll go and get one.
Joking!
They had though, these little...
There she goes, here we go.
It must be the teeth.
It was my finger.
It was my finger.
One on the floor?
No, they had lovely ceramic little neutral eggs.
Which would look beautiful in my house.
Oh, very up your street, Which would look beautiful in my house.
Would look lovely in yours, would look lovely in mine,
but I got some pastel shit.
They're all lovely, well yes,
because you wouldn't be buying them
or looking at them if they weren't lovely.
Would, I got lovely cups,
I got lovely candle.
And I say lovely a lot.
They got some lovely eggs.
And some lovely ribbon to wrap all the little gifts up in.
I put up a post about Easter because I wanted to understand if we are the only mental people
that go overboard and buy presents.
We're actually not.
No, no, no.
We're actually not that bad.
People go mad.
There's differences.
I appreciate some people don't do eggs because...
No, the messages I got on Instagram, people go all out.
No, what I'm saying is, rather than doing an egg, get in a little colouring book or something small.
Some people do full-on gifts. Some people, theatre tickets, they go in, it's proper.
Yeah, but is that as a family because it's Easter?
Grandparents buying this, Easter boxes, this, that, people go, people love it.
It's so silly.
No, you say that. An Easter egg, this fucking Mike.
There's an Easter egg, kinder one, this big, little Marvel one.
Yeah, sorry.
£8. Yeah, I said, I got it, but it, little Marvel one. Yeah, sorry. Eight pound.
Yeah, I said, I got it, but it was on club.
I hope you didn't get anything else in Tesco.
You didn't get any bits in there, did you?
You didn't get any little buckets and squishy toys.
No, I've done nothing.
Excellent, leave it.
Ruby keeps talking about a frozen egg.
Right. And then I- They do Kinder one. Well, talking about a frozen egg. Right.
They do? Kinder one?
I can't. I thought they did.
No, at the airport in Dubai, they had these little frozen Easter eggs and I only bought them didn't I?
And I forgot and I found them in the cupboard.
Oh you are buzzing. Really?
Yeah, experience.
But some of the eggs are so expensive.
I can't get over that.
The kinder ones are like 25 per cent. Who's spending that? And they don't like kinder your kids.
They don't eat the chocolate. Yeah but it's about the toy inside isn't it? Yeah well I've
smashed it I think this year. I did say I'm not going mad. I'm not doing all that
present. It's too much. They can have an egg egg I've done maybe just like a little bit more than just an egg. Who were you with at this point?
No, who are you with you?
Okay
Why?
Be honest
Your funder the whole idea
Second that she's I'm going while I'm in here let me
get some Easter eggs I've got help I haven't just got the buggy and then she's
like yeah trying to pull this stuff I'm like just calm down. And then she went and
calmed down oh that's a good idea can I have those? Yeah but I didn't even see
the things. Fair enough. She didn't give me a minute. I've not gone mad. Yeah anyway.
Yeah people go for it. But also their things
look really cute and they're not they earn a lot of money that's all they they don't
need a lot. I'd like to do a little Easter egg hunt though. What did I say to you? She's
not getting it is she? No. Oh I don't need to do that. I mean you're talking to me like
it's a surprise for me I can give a shit it's Easter why can't you tell me? That is true. Tell you what? Why is it? Why am I mad? I know what you mean I don't know why we are being secretive about it as if we bought her a gift.
No I'm talking about the egg hunt. Easter egg hunt. Again! But I'm not doing the hunt. No who's doing it? The Easter Bunny. Oh, OK. Oh, she's thick.
Oh, really? Is that a thing?
I'm not saying.
I've given up.
It's not Christmas.

Also on Saturday, I went back to 2020, COVID lockdown.
Oh yeah.
I had loads of bananas rotting.
I thought, no, I'm not having it.
I'm not having it.
You're not putting them in the bin.
It's not happening.
Yeah, good for you.
So I made banana loaf.
And it sat on your worktop for four days until you've brought it here. I've just had a slice of it.
With a cup of tea. Nice. Delightful. Thank you Natalie. Really enjoyed it. A bit dry. Oh was it
dry? No, it's because it's been five days old or something. No, it's not, it was really nice. Moist
in the middle. Really nice. Really enjoyed it. I didn't have any baking powder so I was like,
right I'll go Tesco's. Also remembered there was a wine offer, so I thought I'd get a bit of wine.
Yeah, I saw.
Then I got a bit carried away.
And I thought, I know what I'm going to do.
Scan and shop.
Oh, you don't even know.
No, I don't.
You don't.
Does she?
Well, she does because of Instagram.
No, she doesn't.
Let's tell everyone, because this is brilliant.
So I got very excited.
No, she rings me.
Oh, I'll call Judy, no.
I'm just going to do scan and shop. Just one more time. Let's tell everyone, because this is brilliant. So I got very excited.
No, she rings me.
Oh, I called you, didn't I?
I'm just going to do scan shop.
Just what do I do?
Just pick the thing up, Maria, scan your club card, pick it up, do that, put it in your
bag.
Put it in your bag.
Get it in your bag.
So I thought this is very enjoyable.
However, I still wasn't set up properly.
I had the bags in my hand.
I'm trying to pick stuff up, scan it, put it in the bag.
You need to put your bags in a basket, I think,
next time, or a trolley.
Oh, I put mine in a trolley.
Yeah, sorry, yeah.
I was a little bit cat-handed.
I go in one bag, in hand.
Depends what you're getting.
I had two bags, for some reason.
Get a trolley, then.
And I ended up buying loads of stuff,
because I got excited.
Get a trolley.
And it showed you all your offers.
Yeah, well, I didn't have a trolley, and then I was in.
I was doing it.
Because you didn't have a tokeney and then I was in, I was doing it.
Cause you didn't have a token.
Didn't have a token.
No, continue.
Still that lovely finished, great.
So I put my bags down and I've got my scanner
and I'm pressing in the bag.
How'd you pay?
Why is it not coming up?
So I thought, oh, maybe I need to put it back in the dock.
I know.
Although I've never had such stupidity in all my life.
I'm very intelligent. That is the worst common sense I've ever had.
So what do you think? The fucking thing's got your debit card registered on it to pay?
No, because it has because it connects to your club cupboard. Yeah, it connects to your bonk
La bonk. Did you not see the tillers that say scan and shop?
They do not. Self-service. Yeah, that's it. Scanning shop!
No, this is...
Scanning shop.
Not in my little deskos.
Ah.
It says just, erm...
So then what happened?
So then I put it in the dock,
rang me,
Uh-oh.
I've just put it back in the dock.
No, but I rang you after,
so I put it in the dock.
Yep.
And the big screen, I thought, oh, nothing's coming out. And then I thought fuck I can't get it out.
It's unbelievable and I'm the Mauler in this trio I'm the Mauler apparently and you two
take the piss out of me so I scared my club card again
because I thought it's fine it's all gonna be on there and then another
dock lit app I was like fuck
check that out and it was empty, the bag was empty
it's terrible isn't it? she said what do I do now? I said you're gonna have to go to a deal
take it all out and let them scan it.
So that's what I did. And also what was interesting, I did think to myself...
It's a conversation from art really.
Yeah, I did think to myself, also if I just pay on the dock and put it back, who's taking the things off the vine?
Ugh, it's scary shit.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, it's quite... It's scary shit. You know what I mean? Yeah, it's quite scary stuff.
So your first experience wasn't great. Shambles. So then I had to take everything out of the
bags, put it on the till, do it again. But yeah, so. Hopefully next time I'll be a better
experience for you. Oh, I can't wait. It's great though, isn't it? And I did it the other
day and it was popping up £7 when you spend over 50 quid.
So I was buzzing, but then I was like, what can I buy?
What do you mean?
I had £7 off if I spent over £50.
Oh wow.
So then I just was spending to get £7 off.
Yeah, no, it's genius.
Why doesn't everyone do it?
I don't know.
Even if I go in for four things, I'll just do it.
It's done.
And then what? Sorry, you take it to...
Because obviously I don't know the end product.
Oh my Christ.
You take it to a self-checkout.
You scan, beep, a big code on the thing.
And it says, do-do-do.
You put your thing down and you just pay.
And no one's checking your receipt.
No, sometimes you get a random check.
Yes, as Elia said.
It always seems to happen to me.
So annoying.
So you would have got one because it was your first shot.
You would have got a random check.
They scan like seven things, four things, depends.
If all of those things have been scanned, you're good to go.
So you're telling me it's going to then get re-scanned.
For items, if they pick one of those items out and you haven't scanned it,
you're back at the till.
You are back at the till doing the walk of shame
because I've been there when I've accidentally forgot.
It was, I think it was like some-
Oh, going to jail.
It was like 90p, something.
I had like four of them.
I had to go and unpack.
I had to walk back to a till
and unpack all my weekly shop.
Oh, you didn't. I was mortifiedified and I felt like, I felt more sad.
And then what happens if you're walking around,
now sometimes you get excited and then at the end,
you're like, oh, do you know what,
actually I'm gonna put that back.
Yeah, you just pull it out.
It says remove item, scan it.
It says remove item, you scan it.
It's really quite straightforward.
It's an easy process.
Oh my God, it was, yeah. You're a scanning shopper now aren't you?
Sure am.
I've been for a while.
Nectar, club card, marxes, sparks.
What are you going to do with it?
Yeah, it's great.
Really really good.
However, everywhere I go,
it's annoying isn't it?
What is?
We're doing the job. I go to Primark, I've got to scan all the cl...
No, no thanks.
I'm waiting for a till.
No, cloves are ag.
Not doing it.
Zara.
Zara.
Ah, so it's a scam.
I am not going to a self check out.
Sorry, repeating ourselves.
I hate it.
I don't want to do that.
I don't want to remove security to myself. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Putting holes in it. I don't want to do that. I don't want to remove security to myself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Putting homes in place.
I find it really, really stressful.
I don't want to do that.
And I know it's a new thing, whatever.
But also I think it's pricing people out of a job.
But it is, absolutely.
I think it's really sad.
Where's that interaction with someone?
How are you?
You all right?
The checkout person.
No, no, it's crazy.
People don't do that anymore.
Your shop also looks very healthy I noticed. Crisps and wine was you
having a party that night? It's just staples. What's that? Five bags of crisps. Two packets of crisps.
Or crisps. Crisps bag of crisps. No, sensations.
Sweet Thai chilli, they were on offer.
You always buy them when they're on offer.
You should have to buy them having them in the cupboard.
Yeah, true.
That was it.
Ready salted.
Crinkle chips.
Chips.
And wine.
And lots of wine.
The reason I mention the healthy shop, no, we've had a voice note and it just tickled
me and I want to talk about it.
I know it's unrelated, but I loved it. Listen to this. Hi Nat, Rhian here from South Wales. I've been
listening to your pods the last couple of days and there's one episode in particular where you
were talking about diets. I'd just seen this on social media so I thought I'd send it across.
Enjoy. Rhian, thank you because it really tickled me and I'm going to discuss now.
Tickled.
What's wrong with you? What?
Tickled?
Tickled? We say tickled.
Tickled.
It's tickled.
Alright, okay.
T-I-G-G-L-E-D.
Yeah.
Thank you.
T-I-C-K.
I know.
Okay.
No, I know.
Right, here we go.
I'm going to do this whack-ass crash diet, Vogue printed
in the 70s. Here we go. Ready? Wine and eggs. Three days lose five pounds.
Just wine and eggs.
Listen, I'm going to tell you the menu so we can discuss. I am not promoting this diet.
I'm saying it's ridiculous to everybody here we go
it's good to me. Breakfast one egg hard-boiled fine one glass of white wine
perfect dry preferably shabby oh lovely and a black coffee perfect
lunch two hard-boiled eggs a lot of eggs Two glasses of white wine and a black coffee. Nice. Dinner. Five
ounces of steak. Oh. Grilled with black pepper. Love it. Lemon juice. Nice. The remainder
of the white wine. One bottle per day and a black coffee. Oh see that would have been
better if the dinner was one bottle of wine. Yeah. That's where I thought we were going. Could
that be red wine to go with the steak?
No, not finish the white.
Who is having white wine for breakfast? That's rubbish.
But I'm just saying that-
That can't be legit.
I genuinely think it is legit.
What? A bottle of wine a day?
Yeah.
I can't believe it to you.
And you'd be hammered because you've had three eggs. What's the eggs that put me off? Not the wine in the morning. I'm just saying it is bizarre that
that was printed. No it can't be. Sounds good though. Why don't we all give it a go?
Should we talk to you? No, we're not going to try it. We don't want to do it. I just thought it was an
interesting little thing there, shared from there. There was loads of fed, there's been so many fed die. I mean you didn't muck about the old fed diet.
Oh absolutely, loads. But I'm saying that is whining.
No that's not true. It's stupid.
Isn't it? Ridiculous.
Vogue though isn't it?
Yep.
Yeah and that's shameful if they're saying that's what you should be doing.
I mean it was in the 1970s but just show-off.
Oh that makes it okay then. Well it's just how it was wasn't it. Oh I'd love to have lived in the 70s. Have you watched the
Beatles documentary yet? No where do I watch it? Disney Plus. I'll watch that later. It's eight hours.
Oh. It's two and a half hours, three hours, two and a half hours, there's three of them. Oh excellent.
You just lose yourself, it's like you're there. I can't explain it.
So do you feel like you need to watch it with a nice glass of wine?
Just on your own in the dark. You get immersed in 1969 and you're there.
No sunlight. Paul McCartney comes in and he's like, hey, morning everyone, have a cup of tea.
And he's like, I fought this last night and he just goes to, and he starts singing Let It Be.
I cried. I was like, am I actually watching him? Right,
Let It Be. It's incredible. If anyone listens to Off The Tele, I'm repeating myself, I'm
sorry. But you have to watch it.
Yeah, I will. Thank you.
It's amazing.
Here's something for you. Chuckling at you guys calling me a lady on the pod when reading
out my message. Far from a lady.
Also question for you. I love this question. Least favourite weather. Mine is wind. The worst.
Always getting in the way. Makes rain worse. Ruins sunshine and just awkward with hairstyles.
Yeah, it's a good one actually.
What's your worst weather?
I think mine is probably that drizzly rain.
Is that because of the frizz for the hair? It's not proper rain.
It's not rain to put up an umbrella. It could be warm but it's just annoying rain, that
fine rain. I really don't like that. But wind don't know it's on part wind is a really good one
And it's very windy where we are with you a beautiful day like today. It's chilly out there if it's windy it really annoys me
You can't play badminton in the garden if it's windy
No, it really you know it on a hot day on a hot day you get the badminton rackets out
I know it sounds silly, but it's a beautiful thing even you know, you know, on a hot day, you get the badminton rackets out.
I know it sounds silly, but it's a beautiful day. Look at everything, even, you know, like, you know, stuff, even it,
all your magazine on the table.
Yeah, it's all stressful.
Little crossword book that gets blown away.
No, I'm going wind. I'm really with you.
Yeah. What's your what?
You're going with the drizzly rain.
It's hardcore rain, isn't it?
I can't do anything with rain.
Even if it's like a crisp, cold morning,
you can wrap up, if it's raining, it ruins everything.
I agree.
And you're damp, and then you've got a umbrella.
I can't bear it, I hate it.
Awful. Yeah, rain is awful.
Rain is the pits.
What was you saying about smells?
Oh yeah. I was all thinking of rain and...
So this morning, I sprayed my Wood Sage and Sea Salt,
Jo Malone, I've not sprayed it in a while,
not that long.
But the minute I smelt it,
I bought it at the airport on the way to Cyprus
a few years ago.
So obviously that was my perfume that I was using there. It
was mad, like I was there.
Took you back.
It just completely took me back to being in the hotel room going for dinner. I just thought
how crazy is that? If you really think deep into it, how mad is it that a smell can take
you to such a moment
yeah I like I do they say sense and music are probably the two most
transports you back and that's what yeah it gets into your memory bank I think
for me like Nan Nanny's Dagmar Terrace, the smell of that house or like when she was
washing the dirt hole type, Zamo, the floor, any of that just takes me back to Dagmar Terrace
and that smell. Even yeah you've got a bit of, again I mean not this thing, but everyone's homes have got their own smells and stuff as well. Well that's interesting,
yes I was going to say this, I don't think I do but you two have, you have got. You can't smell it
on yourself. Yeah but what would you come into mine and I've got a scent. You've got a scent.
Really? What about mine? What's it like? A bit musky. No it's nice, It's not, what's mine? I don't know. But Maria gave me a big
muslin, more like a blanket. Yeah. And it's obviously been washed and it just smells like
them. I know what you mean. But I don't feel like I have that. You can never smell it on
yourself. That's why sometimes I change up my washing and stuff because I feel like then you get
used to smell and you can't smell clean.
Yeah, like a different anore.
So true.
I was a flora.
Change the different ones.
It's so true.
I've got a perfume that I did when I was doing my tour of Bedroom Fosh years ago.
And it was, was it Diptyque? No, I think it was pomegranate noir Joe Malone
and if I smell it I'm back I'm back I'm 22 or whatever and I'm traveling around
the country it's weird. But it's even just like sometimes I'll smell like a
perfume or an aftershave and you and you are sometimes I can't put my finger on
who or what but you know it is something or someone's worn that and you can't put my finger on who or what, but you know it is something or someone's worn that
and you can't put your finger on it.
But yeah, the scent thing just blows my mind a bit.
June Brown had a certain perfume that she wore.
Shona actually bought a bottle of it.
Yeah.
And because she smokes Shona as well.
So it just smells like Jane.
It is weird.
I was like, oh, it's like, Jane's here.
But that's even though we had that
with a very dear friend of ours.
Yeah, yeah.
And she had her, and every, any birthday Christmas,
that's what they used to buy her, was her scent.
And that, and if you ever smell that now,
you're just walking past.
Oh, Nanny's was Samsara, Ghirlaine.
Oh yeah.
But even like, I think maybe then the smoking, like the cigarette smoke.
I love the smell.
Yeah, because it reminds me of Nat, like, just taste your bag.
Yeah, nostalgic, isn't it?
And it was like a home, I know it's not good, but it was like a homely.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, for me, Nan, Nanny's was the, that house was the strongest, I think, for me.
But even now, like, the smell of, say that when you're cooking a roast,
but it's like the boiling of the cabbage, that means simmered certain things or like,
you know, like a sauce cooking or, you know, just certain food as well.
Well, interestingly, a sauce cooking reminds me of your uncle's.
Yeah. Yeah.
I feel like if you ever go there, it smells like a sauce.
Yeah. Yeah.
And I haven't been there for a long time, but that reminds me of a sauce with a lamb in it
or something.
That reminds me of your uncle's house.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's really funny, but very interesting.
I've also got something which is really weird.
There's a certain light.
So if the sun, a certain lighting of a room
transports me back to your old house and I
stayed over and we were in bunk beds in Hoddeston and the light in the room, I don't know why,
I've just got an absolute image and vision of the light and I know what that light is
because it transports me back to that room. How weird is that? Yeah that is really weird.
And it's just a memory and I haven't got great memory but there are certain things
that are very very strong. Funny isn't it? It's a very powerful... 077, 088, 20, 1919.
Have you got any weird and wonderful smells or things that bring important
nostalgic things back to your memory? Let us know. It's a lovely subject.
Well, weirdly on Saturday before I did my Tesco's debacle, I was on the phone to
Elia. So I ended up just walking around where a little bit. I was walking at Elia
and told you. Go on. And this old man has walked around the corner. Yeah.
I thought it was Grandad.
Really?
No, I said to Elia.
She started crying on the phone.
No, it was the weirdest thing.
I was like, I don't know what to do.
No, it was the weirdest,
because it just, it took me by surprise.
Yeah, yeah.
Because it looked like Grandad walking towards me.
And even his walk and...
It was the weirdest, I was like,
oh Grandad, and he was like, oh no, he's not here.
Oh, it was so weird. I'll tell you that, it's just completely thrown me.
How odd.
Yeah, really strange.
Not even when Grandad, like, Grandad, when he had like his beard and stuff, oh, it's
the weirdest thing.
How funny.
Yeah, really odd.
Maybe that was like a little sign, a little...
Little sign to you, a little nod that he's looking after you. I always think that. Yeah, I know. Little nods that they're around little sign. Yeah. Little sign to you, little nod that he's looking after you.
I always think that.
Little nods that they're around.
Yeah, no.
Very, very good.
Oh, fuck me.
That's boring, isn't it?
That's right.
It's a little bit deep.
We went to see Asha last week.
You had the baby.
He didn't do that song. He didn't do
Popping Corla. He did. He has done since then. Has he? Did you enjoy it? Has he started singing
yet or? He didn't really sing. Yeah, I don't know what you mean. I'm confused. He didn't
sing much. So you've gone to a concert to watch Usher and relive all the moments of
the album that we really liked. And they played. The DJ was excellent.
He danced and he sort of went...
Oh, he skated.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Sessions.
Just sort of did a few words.
Let it burn.
It's disappointing, isn't it?
I just was really...
Look, we had a really lovely night.
It was great, the music.
We had lots of fun, yeah.
The performance was fantastic.
The show was good.
I know, but again, it's like, it's 2025.
Do we need you to just be throwing money at strippers in the club?
Is that what happened really?
Poles.
Yeah, it was all, and then he's going around with cherries and like putting them in girls'
mouths.
Yeah, but again, I think there's a certain generation that love that.
But what I'm saying is, listening to the music, but he didn't sing.
It was very sexual.
Yes, he didn't sing a full song from start to finish.
Not even a slow one, he didn't just stay in there and sing the song.
And also, not being rude, how old is this geezer these days?
50 odd.
And how old are the dancers?
I know, and he spanked the little ass.
I'm not sure that's from there.
I'm not sure it's okay.
But yeah, he didn't really sing.
No, I mean that's the main concern.
And Naomi Campbell was brought on stage.
Okay, what did she do?
Just walked.
Did a bit of modelling, yeah. Literally. I mean she's Okay, what did she do? Just walked.
Did a bit of modeling. Yeah, but literally.
I mean, she's amazing, isn't she?
Oh, stunning. Absolutely stunning.
Beautiful.
Legs that go on for hours.
And actually something that we were discussing beforehand
and what it was interesting,
because we went with a group of us and people said,
oh, I need to listen to the songs.
I need to learn the lyrics.
Oh, yeah. Why do you feel that pressure of when you're going a group of us and people saying, I need to listen to the songs, I need to learn the lyrics.
Why do you feel that pressure of when you're going to a concert or a gig or whatever you
want to call it?
To know every word.
There's nothing worse than being at a gig or a concert and not knowing the words is
a bit aggrorating, but not knowing the song.
I hate that.
I hate when artists come on.
Because sometimes artists will... So when I went to see Tim's, she literally released
the album, new album that week, and I listened to it religiously. Thank God, because it was
all that album and I really enjoyed it.
Yeah, some people don't play the classics, do they?
Some people when they go on just play all their new music and you're like, we're not
here for that.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Even how, I think even...
Alanis was good, wasn't she? She played everything.
Oh yeah. But even then it's like. Oh because it's lovely to sing along to isn't it? Yeah
you want to know the words. And even if you don't you just make it up. I do that anyway.
Like that. Don't I? Well I'm going to see Louis Dunford on Friday. Yeah that's going to be great.
I'm so excited. Yeah I don't really know who that is. I mean, it's not my cup of tea but I've known him a long time.
You know all the songs though don't you?
Well he released his new album but he's doing a bit of mixture of both.
But we listen, but now getting ready when I'm in the car now, I'm listening.
But more just to get me excited.
Yeah, brilliant.
I don't know how it works.
You want to know the songs.
Even Asha started with songs that I didn't even know.
But when they're doing so many,
I mean, this is Louis' biggest one,
Ali Pali, 10,000 people.
Oh yeah, no, it'd be brilliant.
So he's not doing it.
I mean, Asha did like 30 songs.
Oh no, yeah, it was a lot.
He did half of the songs, as in they weren't a full song,
whereas this is like a proper gig.
No, it'll be great.
I can't wait.
I love it.
No, I bet Linda's so proud of him. It's brilliant. Honestly and like watching his... His mum? His mum?
What are you talking about Linda? Linda Robson. Is that her son?
They've done alright then, haven't they? Of course they have. I don't mean her, I mean the
loose women. They've got a lot of famous... Oh yeah. Oh amazing. I didn't realise it was her son.
But watching his Instagram and he's got, you know, his proper tour.
He's been up to Newcastle and Bristol and he just can't believe he's at Ali Pali on Friday.
It's a good venue as well.
I feel proud of him.
It's a good venue.
Don't know why, I don't know.
Yeah, it is a good venue.
But I must say, like, even doing the past few people I've been to see recently
have been, like, smaller venues. Oh, they're so much better, isn't it? I don't like the O the past few people I've been to see recently have been like smaller venues.
Oh, they're so much better, isn't it?
I don't like the O2.
It's too big.
So much better.
It is too. I saw Ray at the O2 though, it was amazing.
Was it?
Look, you're not going to see Ray anywhere else. You're not going to see Asher unless you go to Las Vegas and see Adele. No but what I mean is, no but there's, you're not gonna, unless
you go somewhere like that, the bigger artists you're not going to see them.
It's even just like you said like with Asha, like we had a great time, don't get me wrong,
but I don't want to read up, you know, like you say it's a show, I know everyone
loves the show and all the lights but I'm a bit, not really a momentary.
Yeah, it's funny isn't it?
I like the, I just would like the performance, the stripped down.
Yeah, whereas for me going like, Louis on Friday.
That's a proper gig.
That'll be him.
Yeah, and I guess he played, does he play a guitar and stuff?
Well he's got a little band and yeah.
I was saying, even when I went to see Prince, saw him a couple of times, I did see him at
the O2 but it was incredible.
His stage was in the middles. Yeah. I went to see Prince, saw him a couple of times, I did see him at the O2, but it was incredible.
His stage was in the middle, and obviously he had his band, like they're amazing.
And at the end he walked off, he came back on with his guitar, he didn't want to go,
and he just sang with his guitar for ages.
Yeah, that was probably the best bit.
He's renowned for coming back on.
But how lovely, like it was amazing.
Really good.
Listening to live music is one of my favourite.
Oh, it's fantastic.
Also, you know what we've missed,
which I'm absolutely devastated.
Yeah.
Royal Albert Hall, The Cause.
I know.
Why?
Because it was on...
Why have I missed that?
I told you.
Aoife sent it to me.
What do you mean?
The Royal Albert Hall, The Cause were there.
Yeah, they did the 28th of March.
Can't you watch it on something?
Well, I wanted to go.
I wanted to go.
I wanted to go.
We're just talking about our live music skits.
We had the conversation, we were in the kitchen, here.
I'm not that bothered about that.
I would have loved it because I know all of it. Love it.
I knew all of it.
Talk On Corner is one of my favourite albums.
Yeah, not massive.
I would have loved it.
It would have been a good one to see.
I haven't got anyone else booked this year.
We're going to see Coldplay.'t got anyone else booked this year.
We're going to see Coldplay.
We are so excited.
It's going to be so good.
Where were they?
O2.
Yeah, I don't know.
But again, I feel like Coldplay and the O2 will be amazing.
Oh yeah, because it is a proper show.
Yeah, oh I'm so excited.
We saw 1975 at the O2, didn't we?
Yeah, it was amazing.
You really enjoyed that, didn't you?
Yeah, incredible.
No, Coldplay will be excellent.
I'm really excited about that.
And no one likes them.
They don't like them.
I don't get it.
I don't know why everyone's got a hatred against Coldplay.
I hate them.
I just don't get the buzz.
It's not for me.
You two can enjoy yourselves.
Absolutely.
Who else? No one else.
Eliza talking about albums,
she's listening to all the Lana Del Rey now
cause she's gonna go to that.
But it's weird cause she's learning all the stuff
cause she only knows a few.
Yeah, it is weird how you do that.
It's a good talking point.
It is, yeah, it is funny.
Oh, you do.
It's like I said, there's nothing worse
than going somewhere and not knowing the songs.
It's a bit, you're used to it.
I used to get the thing out the CD,
hearsay, pull the book out.
Learn all the words.
Before I went to see them
with my hearsay bag, lovely little bag with all their faces on it.
I remember that.
What about when you don't...
You were dancing, but I'm gonna be there.
You were doing that and we were in Red Cube.
Nothing shambles.
Yeah, I went up to Natalie's flat and they were there, nearly had a heart attack.
When?
Oh yeah.
I was like, imagine me at my age, here they were huge.
What flat?
A flat.
Like this one, really?
Yeah, and I'd gone up there and they were all in the kitchen and I was like, couldn't
believe it, obviously I thought I was in nuts.
I thought I was so good.
What about talking of memory, sense and all of that and lyrics?
What about when you can't remember a pin code
Or a password. Oh full. Yeah a song comes on from 1968 and you know the words different part of the brain
That's crazy though, isn't it?
Oh, you can't remember what you had for dinner last night or I've set the password up this morning and can't remember it by the afternoon
Yeah, it's awful. Is it and at the time when you're doing I don't need to write it down
I remember that write it down or that put it in your phone. Yes, save it in it? And at the time when you're doing it, you're like, don't need to write it down, I remember that. Write it down?
Or like put it in your phone.
Yeah.
You just save it in your passwords on your phone.
But that annoys me when they don't always save.
Agreed.
And that's why we don't remember them, because we just do it on the phone.
And then they say you shouldn't have the same for everything.
So then you just put a one or a two or an exclamation mark on the end.
And then it says, this has been compromised been compromised and you just go don't care.
Which is really bad.
But yeah, the password thing is bamboozling because we've got so many now.
So many.
So many.
Ridiculous.
Just too many things.
Yeah, no.
And that's why if I lost my phone I'd be screwed.
Lucky you've got that thing round it.
Mine's gone by the way. Oh wow. Why? Because it was
driving me mad. The noise when I'm doing the pod. Yeah it's annoying. Yeah. Although this isn't backed up.
Oh I don't. Honestly it goes, Apple's taking 8.99. Apple's taking 2.99. I don't know what they're
doing. They're literally robbing me. Yeah. Broad daylight and I'm paying for it.
It's the space, isn't it?
8.99 I pay a month to have storage.
Where is it?
Where are you?
But how do you see it?
Well, you can't.
It's somewhere in the land, far, far away.
But what do you mean?
How do you see what's on your iCloud?
I don't get that.
No, I just pay.
You have an Apple ID, don't you?
An Apple email.
Yeah, but where's your iCloud?
Where do I see everything that's on there?
It's not all on here.
It should log in.
It's not all on here.
Yeah, it is.
Might not be.
Well, it's all on mine.
No.
So just say I was to get a new phone with less memory.
Yeah.
It ain't all going to fit on the phone.
It's all in the iCloud.
It's all in the iCloud.
Where is it?
How do I know what's on there and where it is?
What if I don't need everything that's on there?
You can go into it I think and sort it out.
Well yeah, it's not just... you can...
Look, you're struggling to tell me how.
I don't know.
That's ridiculous.
And I pay for Google as well.
Oh no.
What do you mean?
Why?
To store all my photos.
Oh.
Well that's silly isn't it?
Can anyone help with the iCloud thing because
that's... Yeah that would be great. Okay yeah let us know how we access the iCloud.
Just listening to Nat Snees' and the old man giving money for the piggy bank. That is something
that's done up in the north east. I'm not born and bred, only been here 30 years. Whenever
we are out with daughter and babies people cross their palm with silver all strangers
and it's gorgeous.
That is cute.
From Suzanne.
That's really cute sorry but can you see the spasm I'm having in my shoulder?
And now it stops.
That's been a B12.
It was going crazy.
Really?
Pulse seeking.
That's cute and also that's I think that must be maybe like an Italian thing too because
mum's friends that come and meet
the baby, they gave him a pound. That's why I needed the piggy bank.
I've also seen English people do it.
Well I don't, yeah.
Cross their palm with silver as a thing, the baby.
Someone cross my palm with some silver.
Look.
Oh yeah.
Oh, you're allergic.
Look, look.
Your arm's going to...
It's going crazy.
Was it on the arm?
No, it's the other arm.
It's all the best.
It's probably the other. Yeah, I going crazy! Was it on the arm?
No, it's the other arm.
It's all the best.
It's probably the other...
Yeah, I mean, I'm throwing stuff out there and it's hitting me right back in the face.
What you throwing out there?
Fuck knows.
What do you mean, darling?
You got to say, oh, throw good stuff.
Yeah, positive.
It's going fantastic. I think it is going well. Do you. Yeah, positive. It's going fantastic.
I think it is going well.
Do you? Yeah, I do.
Good. It's good.
Everything that's meant to happen is happening.
I think it's brilliant.
Just listening to episode 98, Nats and Isis.
All the best.
Me and my partner on our way back from Disneyland, Paris,
and you've just called us out.
It was. But you deserved it. us out. Oh, it was.
But you deserve it.
Then I said, I'm sorry.
And he said, we spent a lot of time cursing small children,
but agree with a lot of what you said from Grey.
Brilliant.
I hope you had a nice time, but yeah, think again.
Oh, how funny.
But that's the thing.
I get it.
I bet most couples that do go think, why the fuck have we done
this to ourselves?
Yeah, I think so. Although-
Just kids everywhere.
Did you see the video that I posted to you? Me and Eliza had a little day out and we walked
past the Disney store in Oxford Street.
Oh, I didn't see that.
I did send it to you. There must have been something going on in store and I would say to you there was a queue of about 75 deep,
all adults. What are you queuing for outside Disney?
Buying something obviously. For their children?
Yeah. No, these were Disney fans, Disney jumpers,
Disney t-shirts. Were they tourists?
Possibly. I didn't speak to them. But I did do a video for you.
I didn't see the video.
Yeah, have a look.
But maybe something's really...there's a lot of Lilo and Stitch stuff out.
Maybe they were hypebeasts?
Hypebeasts. Disney hypebeasts.
Maybe.
But why is there loads of Lilo and Stitch stuff everywhere in the shops all of a sudden?
Yeah, there are.
Why?
It's been like that for ages.
Everywhere.
Primark, loads of it.
Yeah.
I had some weird stuff in Primark.
Did they?
Weird.
Primark does have it.
But why?
But everywhere.
B&M, everywhere.
Is there a new, maybe there's a new summer movie coming out.
I don't know.
I've never really watched that one.
No, but.
Sorry, just quickly.
I wanted to ask you something about your era.
Everyone's asking why we got the era, guys.
No, but yours is different to mine.
So now I'm confused.
Why?
Because mine ain't like that.
Like what?
No, that's not the one.
That's just a spare one.
That's the one I put outside.
All right.
Shall we talk about that? Even me yesterday
clothes on the floor. What should we talk about? I came around to you to look after baby James.
You'd put all of your washing outside on your era with no pegs. On my clothes horse.
With no pegs. I'm not pegging.
I've looked outside.
I've gone outside for earlier while she was getting ready.
Half of the washing is on the floor.
It's all still damp.
What a waste of time.
What a waste of life that is.
You might as well just put it all in the basket
and just stick it outside.
I've contemplated that.
What a waste of time. I can't believe you don't own pegs.
Pegging is long.
Pegging is long.
What?
What?
Pegs.
What's pegging?
You cannot hang washing out and not peg it.
I've never pegged.
Oh, you can't do that here.
Oh, it's a sexual practice.
What is?
Pegging?
Oh, okay. What is it? Oh, I's a sexual practice. What is? Pegging? Oh, okay.
What is it?
Err...
It's one for after hours, I think.
Fair play. Can I read?
Top one?
I'm actually not sure what it is.
No?
No. Not one for me, that.
No. Thank you.
No kind of thank you. I'm alright thank you.
No kind of pegging.
I've taken a screenshot on Amazon of said clothes sales.
Let me see, let me see.
Oh yeah.
Yeah I know I tell you what though, all these things on Amazon are getting quite a lot of,
we should have a, what do you call it?
Shall I link it? Shall I link?
Yeah we should.
We should get something for it.
Yeah you link it and if people buy it then you...
Commission.
Yeah, affiliation.
Why can you do that?
Don't know, no idea.
Anyway, maybe we should look into it
because I'm on my knees over it.
I will post the error.
Clothes, horse, whatever.
I don't even know what I call it anymore.
And I'll buy some pegs.
No, you know what?
Are you really gonna do that?
I'm gonna get you both... Peg one sock pegs. No, you know what? Are you really gonna do that? I'm gonna get you both.
Peg one sock.
Yes.
No, the socks can lay.
If they fall on the floor, I'm not interested.
Well, I picked up two socks
that were about eight foot away from your hair.
That was flown off in the garden.
So socks are really important to pick.
Not the baby socks though.
They're only small.
But mum did it for me the other day
when she come round Auntie Linnie.
Nothing off.
All on the, I'm gonna do it all properly.
Was it windy though?
It was windy and everything was perfect.
Do you know why?
She weaved it in.
Yeah.
But, peg.
What, do you not weave?
No.
Huh?
Weave.
Do you mean?
No, she put like, like that.
I'm sorry, yeah. Oh no. Yeah, that's long. Just stick a peg on it. Let's get all lumps. This is, do you mean? What do you mean? No, she put like that. I'm sorry, yeah.
Oh no, it was a good time.
Yeah, that's long.
Just stick a peg on it.
And then it's going to get all lumps.
Do you know what?
I'm going to use the tumble dryer.
No, I've never used a tumble dryer.
I mean, she does not put a, not a, I don't know what she's talking about, socks, not
a sock, leaves this house wet.
What do you mean?
What?
She doesn't hang anything outside.
Yeah? What, all in the dryer? Yeah, she doesn't hang anything.
Why? She's lazy. Yeah, but again, it's not about laziness.
There's time as well. No, I go, right, the other day, beautiful day,
I've got to get the washing line out. I've got to clean it because it's not been outside.
Why have you not got a thing?
You've got one in there, put it outside.
Oh, you mean the air outside? Oh no.
No, because I've got a washing line.
What do you mean? You did the air inside.
So she's actually got a washing line.
I've got a proper washing line. I've got to get it out.
Hang on, what goes in the ground?
No, absolutely. What is it, 1950?
No, it's lovely. It's perfect. I'll choose one of those. Would you?
More so than an Aira.
At this time of year, I'm not doing that.
Because wherever is not...
No, you don't do it in the summer.
I do do it in the summer.
I've never seen...
I do do it in the summer.
If I'm at home for the day and it's baking hot, I will use it.
But the problem is, I did that the other day.
That is shame.
And I was just bang, bang, wash, wash.
But the washing wasn't drying quick enough.
So then what I'd be doing is taking it off the Aira I put it in the tumble dryer to finish off put in the
next lot on the airer it's insanity that was a lot so no but if it is a lovely
day but what you do the air inside I have an airer it's happening again look
look it's a nerve a trap nerve it is going just give you arm a little let's
circle the arm.
What do you do? The dry the airer inside the house?
Yes, I do. If some of Mark's stuff he doesn't...
What, you're not? No.
That's where all my clothes dry it. Inside. Of course.
Well, where do you want me to put it? When it's snowing?
In the tumble dryer. No! On the reds. No!
But there's stuff that's... Reds?
What? A whole week's worth of washing on four radiators?
Mark doesn't like his washing in the tumble.
Right.
So it goes on an error.
How long does it take in the house?
A day.
I put it in the bathroom.
Moisture.
Oh.
Granddad's bathroom with the radiator.
No one's in there.
It's different also if you've got the room, I understand.
Yeah, I mean I couldn't have been in the middle of the living room.
No, you could do it.
No, I don't do that.
No, you should do that.
You should really do that.
It's a good option.
When the kids are at school all day, get it out.
Do you need a radiator? Do you need a radiator?
Not really, because your house is 400 degrees.
Well, it's not the moment though. What do you do now when the heat is not on?
Open a little window, let a bit of hair out.
My ventilation isn't great in that house.
Oh my God.
The window's weird.
Just stick to using your tumble dryer and your bill will be about 500 quid a month.
All the best.
No, at this time of year we should be...
I'm not. I'm putting it outside in the sunshine.
In the sunshine.
How funny that we thought of the same song.
Now I could have gone, you are the sunshine How funny that we thought of the same song Now I could have gone You are the sunshine of my
We should, oh that's such a good game
Now that's what we should play one day
Yeah
That would shock me that you would come out with that song
But that's what I thought of
So how's that?
It's not really a song
I love that song
How many songs are there with the word sunshine in it?
I'm walking on sunshine.
Sunshine on a rainy day.
No, I was thinking of sunshine through my window.
That's what you are.
That's me.
Don't blame it on the sunshine.
Don't blame it on the moonlight.
You are my sunshine.
My only sunshine.
That's a nursery rhyme.
Come on. No, it's not. You make me. No, my only sunshine. What's the nursery rhyme?
Come on. No it's not.
You make me...
No it's not that.
Natalie next.
No.
Spend the day...
Dices!
What is it?
I can't read your sunshine!
Help me!
What is it?
She doesn't even know it.
I can't think.
Spend money in the sunshine!
No?
No but what is it? She doesn't even know it. I can't think. She's been money in the sunshine.
No?
No, but what is it?
Tonight, I'm a rock and roll star.
I can't wait to go to their concert.
What?
Go on.
Sunshine.
No.
Have you got one?
No way! Have you got one? Hold on.
She can't bear to lose.
No I can't.
It's too late now.
You can't concentrate.
We're doing a pod.
It's going to be great.
Go, go, go, go, go.
I got that sunshine in my pocket.
I hate that song.
I may.
But the song will still beat you, bitch.
Well done.
That was a good game.
I also think we should play Last One Laughing.
Not here, but the song will still beat you, bitch. Well done. That's a good game. I also think we should play last one laughing.
Not here, but just in general life.
If people come round on a Sunday, we're not allowed to laugh.
Like the traitors that we were playing, that went well.
Well done. Really well done.
You could do that now.
You could do it.
Set it up.
What do you mean now?
She'd win, Ms Og.
I want the laughing one.
All of them. I would win. I wouldn't laugh. I want the laughing one. All of them.
I wouldn't laugh.
No, I'd laugh.
I haven't finished it. No spoilers.
I know who wins, Mil's spoilt it for me on Friday.
Bitch.
Don't mention it downstairs, because Joni's very happy with who won and keeps mentioning it, so just don't mention the programme.
I'm going to watch that tonight.
It's very good, isn't it?
It's just so simple. I was showing dad the clips of Joe Wilkinson.
Yeah, one day.
Oh, it's one day.
Six hours.
There's a big timer that they start.
I wondered what that was.
You wondered what it was.
Bit like the Scan N Shop.
Honestly, you'd concern me.
No, but also...
No, I forget how I'm looking at it.
No, do you know what?
Let's leave it there.
Let's leave it there.
What are we up to?
What are we doing with our lives?
Going away soon.
You're going away.
What are you doing, you all right?
I'm all good.
Are you sure? How's your documentary? I didn't watch it.
I did.
That was all good, yeah.
Really good?
Yeah, good. Nice little watch.
Quite pacey. If you like that sort of consumer show, you can catch it. What's the big deal?
Britain's Best Buyers, Channel 4, 8 o'clock Friday night, or stream it on 4OD.
Not your first rodeo.
No, no, everything's good. It's all good.
What, the book?
Yeah, it's good. It's going well. I've got three more chapters to edit.
So that's really exciting. It's sat over there and I need to do that.
So that's going well and yeah.
Who's doing that with their leg?
Me.
Stop. I know. Because she's ready to go. Look, she's like, on to the legs. Go, go, go.
