So, how many of these wreath workshops have you done? Ever? No, this weekend if you like. Just this morning, but we had a mad one this week for 40 people which was really crazy. It was in the Four Seasons in the Penthouse, it was wild. Amazing. I told Nick I want a microphone for the next one. Brilliant.

Yeah, we've been doing quite a few of them. Has everyone got a wire? There's more here if anyone needs it or if you get to the bottom. Oh, I see. Wow. Oh, wow. I knew you and me could have a must fight. Now stop now. I just snorted. Right, OK. How are you you doing I'm confused at your things you really underestimate my intelligence you know that I'm gonna be better than mine

you underestimate me I know and you're just gonna be and you said it the other day about the Christmas tree you're like your tree's so good it surprises you because it's um but I like decorating things. I love it. Maybe it's because you're a hander. There's no like method to work it all on. No. Yeah. I like that. The problem for me is my handedness. It's the issue. This is cute, isn't it? Little carver. Cheers. Cheers, sweetheart. What a lovely lovely thing i'm really sorry i always bought i'm keeping them off my table cut it then my mom keep in mind now i feel like you're you

need to keep yours i'm gonna buy one from mom for mom from my asda pretend i made that yeah perfect the only problem with that is she's gonna listen to the pod well i've got moss on my lip because you threw it at me. I don't know what you expect me to... How cute is the studio? It's beautiful in here. And the smell. I feel because I'm a Taurean, I'm an earth sign. This is my happy place. Earthy. It makes me really happy.

I'm not a fan of the sea. Are you a fan of the sea? No. Oh you're not? Not really. Oh interesting. I kind of get like a handful like every time. Oh wow. I'm being well mingy and I can go sort of like, that'll get you round today.

Is that a forest term? Well mingy? Well mingy? No. Fair, no I'm just wondering. Excited about this. This is actually... It's really, really therapeutic.

I didn't actually think, I know it sounds really silly, but I didn't think it would be that... Do it all? Yeah. Oh, okay. And like, why are all the fruits and stuff? It's good. Fully making it. That's excellent. Can you imagine being a bird? Imagine being a bird? It's fucking easy making a nest.

What are they moaning about? Look at all the moss. I have all this shit outside my front door 24-7. But that's because they're building nests with it. This is amazing though the moss for them. What do you think? Didn't baby Jesus sleep in lots of moss? No, no, no, it was hay. It was hay. I thought sometimes when you see the little... They've got moss in them, I agree. Thank you.

Right, that's our wreaths, are you happy? Yeah, amazing. Yeah, they look so good. Thank you so much. Thank you so, so much. It was so enjoyable. It's like a meditation almost isn't it making a wreath yeah it's nice we just sewn out of everything and we were saying we weren't even talking we were just concentrating it always the classes always start really chatty and then about halfway through it goes deadly silent and everyone's just like head down that's brilliant but you were amazing i feel like it's when you're doing the bunches and stuff.

Then when you're decorated, everyone's starting to talk a bit more. Yeah, yeah, definitely. Everyone's a bit more relaxed. It was really lovely. I can't wait to put my table. Centerpiece. Centerpiece. You'll have to send us a picture.

Of course. I promise I will. Thank you for the trouble. But thank you. No worries. Have a nice Christmas. Thanks for the drinks and Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas.

Thanks. Bye. Oh, it was just so nice, wasn't it? Yeah, mine. I need to still put mine on my door and send Nick a photo. But we had some lovely comments on Instagram and someone. Oh, I want to read this, actually. This was lovely.

Why was this girl's trip not opened up to the podcast fan? I'm sure we've all had a ball. Have the best night. I would love that. Well, that's such a good idea next year we should do something like a little event no i know you want to do the shows and that but i thought even if we christmas event or just any little events where we could yeah we can book some cool things to do and invite like like your um yeah your true avid fans and we'll have a bit of a girls' day. I think that would be really cute, wouldn't it?

Sounds like a fantastic idea. Maybe I'll be invited this time. We'll see. You keep banging on about being invited. You've got a baby. A very small one. Yeah. There's no way you would have come.

It's a weird thing to say. But you never would have... He was invited. No, I wasn't. I knew nothing about it until you said We're going to No she wasn't invited Don't know anything about it He wasn't invited But that's fine

It's not an issue Just remember that That's all I'll say And I don't know why Having a baby is a An excuse I think that's quite rude actually I agree

Just because I've got a baby What does that mean You're busy anyway I thought I genuinely thought I wasn't Maria I was

We wouldn't have invited you Maria invited me Don't ever go at me Yeah no it's Maria No it's wouldn't have invited you Maria invited me don't ever go at me no it's Maria no it's Nicola she invited us cheers Nic I remember that

Do you like the ones where you can get, like you do... What about make your own crackers? No. That's what we should have done. Oh, yeah. Says the one who can't even stress about buying presents. She wants to make crackers. I saw some really beautiful crocheted ones.

So obviously it's boring for the kids because you're not cracking them, but they were all knitted with people's names on. Just for the table. Looked really lovely. And you can put your own gift in. They look really pretty. There you go, Debs. Have a little job

Oh yeah What about the ones That you do like Hum the tune Oh I've got those Yes They're good They're really really good

I just like fun ones With good questions Like trivia What's that game like that And then you'd all put like Same thing in your No that's that. No, that's the...

Oh, I remember that. Like Keith's Teeth. Oh, yeah. Yes, Speak Out or whatever it's called. Right, go on then. These are pub quiz crackers. Oh, yes. And these are eight pounds from Sainsbury's.

Yeah, I've got a lot of time for these. Oh, they're little pubs. Little pubs. But again, they're not... Shape. The shape's weird. The shape is different. But they look they're not... Shape. The shape's weird. The shape is different. They look good, though.

Let's have a look. There's a little pub for you. Oh, they are cute. What is that? It's not a cracker. There's a little pub for you. Oh, Queen Vic. Hi.

The wire's out. You can't put... Oh. Hold your cracker here. I'm not. I'm sorry. Oh! the wise owl you can't put oh pull your cracker here ow sorry oh that's so annoying

what was yours the wise owl the trendy tap uh mine mine's a sports one that's why. Mine's going to be sports.

Mine's music. Fantastic. So yours is a music quiz. What's mine? That is this. What's yours? I don't know. The trendy tap.

It could be anything, can't it? What did you do? Oh, sorry. Pull the chimney. Yeah, not good. Where do I put it? From here? Which way?

Down. They're not great, guys. Are you joking me? Taking a piss? How funny, though. You get a pencil in this one. Down? Pull it.

Just pull it. At least you've done it. No. I've dropped my thing on the floor. Purple hat, no. Right. I've got a pencil. It is good.

It's got a pencil in it. I've got a whole little notepad. Oh, it's lovely, this. Music trivia. How do you describe a bar with no beer? How do you describe a bar with no beer? Pointless. Close.

The answer's in the question. Bar. Not a pub? Bar. A bar. No, you were close. You need to replace the O with... What did I say?

Pointless. Publess. Pointless. Ah, very good. Oh, this is good. Really cute. Yeah, this is good really cute yeah this is good we'll save that

that's a pub quiz that's really this is really good this comes with a ten questions in each cracker and you get a small notepad

and a pencil and you also get a little catchphrase thing and a joke with a hat these are really brilliant and then I've got the sports trivia

how much are they eight pounds they're eight pounds for six so there's not many of them And a joke with a hat. These are really brilliant. So I've got the sports trivia. They're £8 for six, so there's not many of them. But they're really, really good because obviously you've got a lot to do around the table, which is what's lovely about that. But if there's more than six, you shouldn't get them because all the questions will repeat themselves. But it's excellent. Where is it?

It's a pub quiz. Yeah, because there's one. There's sports. They've done all the genres that's very very good we're not going to go through the questions

this joke's funny why did the man bring a ladder to the bar I'm not sure ladder to the bar because he was legless he heard the drinks

were on the house laughing on top of on the house the drinks were on the house on top of on the house the drinks were on the house and the drinks are on the house he's bought the ladder

to get the drinks oh my god no I understand but my my answer was better what because he was legless yes

so what's he going to do with the ladder? Hello, boys. Right, are we jumping off the live then? Yes, I think so. Let's get back in the game. But we just wanted to say hello because we said we would. Bye. See you all later.

Bye. Have a lovely evening. Enjoy. I'm a celeb. You too. Bye, guys. Misery. Bye. Bye, Have a lovely evening. Enjoy. I'm a celeb. You too. Bye, guys. Misery. Bye.

Bye, guys. Bye, Debs. Mum, Debs said hi. Oh, hi, Debs. Yeah, you're gone. Bye, Debs. Those pub ones were lovely. I like those.

Really cute, actually. Really lovely. Can I just have a drink, please? Absolutely. Glass of... Get the maray out. What would you have a drink, please? Absolutely. Glass of... Get the moe out. What would you like? Moe next?

No. I was going to save the moe. What, there's more? Just this one. Oh, right. Fine. Just try this one. Is that the Moxie's one?

No, that's Sainsbury's. But this is always nice. I think it's a bit of a staple. However, that Tesco finest was nice. It was nice. I must say that little one was... Yeah. I'd like another little glass just to see if it was nice. It was nice. I must say that little one was... Yeah. I'd like another little glass just to see if it was as good as we thought.

What? Did you just say a little one? Would you like to have that now and I'll try the Prosecco? Would you prefer a champagne? No, I'd have both, thanks. Thank you very much. It is true what you said, though, about Prosecco, I think, because you should start with

the prosecco and then obviously work up to the champagne and end on the champagne because it is different isn't it yeah very very different taste i've really gone off prosecco though just in general i just never liked it can't stand the stuff eating i'll give you a headache hate it i'm only doing it for the pod. Things I do. You're not a Prosecco drinker at all. What's wrong with me? I was saying to the girls the other day about...

Brunches. And smashing down eight glasses of Prosecco in a couple of hours. I mean, it was definitely more than that, but for the purposes of the pod. Yeah, yes although i do remember towards the end of my pregnancy with alfie i craved it i remember that and then after that that first well i think it was champagne to be fair but after but that first fizz i just wanted that fizz and that is so weird because that is all i wanted and my friends will back me what what are you looking forward to and i was like a cold glass crisp champagne really that's what i had when we went and registered him and i had a little

glass and i loved it thank you there we go darling i just didn't want too much right so this is Sainsbury's place of difference go on you say it no go on conigliano prosecco superiore you need to answer

you want to say the face deminuziazione di origine controllata e garantita Ferro are you listening what do you think No, do it again. Ferro, are you listening? What do you think? He is an avid listener.

That's our cousin in Italy, by the way. Pleasant. Is it? Nice. I don't know why I'm saying it like I've never had it, but you know when you've not had it for a while. I'd like to bring up that I've never sat on this chair. I'd like to apologise to Maria because it creaks, doesn't it?

It's annoying. No, you always sit on this chair, so I apologise. It's annoying. They're all annoying, to be honest. Yeah, these chairs, it looks lovely. She's getting rid of them. I said, oh, I'll have one for my dressing table because I still don't have a chair. And then I was like, no.

Aggravation. They're so heavy. Made a boo-boo with the podcast chairs, everybody boosel ones the boosel boo-boo they're really nice they're too low and you can't get out of them because they sort of encase you they engulf you they're like a warm hug with boosel but they're not right they're good but they're not right. They're good, but they're not right. They're not comfy, actually. Nice. Over. Oh, they're quite... No. They're okay. They're very low on the back. They're awful, actually.

What a load of shit. I said she should put them in the lounge at the top. Oh. Yes. Wow. Wow. What did she say? What did she say?

I told you. I was thinking I'm going to move the copy table. I'm going to put them in that bit. But I said, it was your idea, the whole thing. No. No, but the whole thing is her idea from earlier. That is incredible. She came in here and went, you should do this, you should do that.

I'd started the conversation. I just didn't mention your name yet. Wow. It's true. And then I said, it actually ellie's idea about the chairs but no she didn't the whole thing was her idea not just getting rid of the chairs but where to put them as well so she claimed oh i'm gonna put them here you're unbelievable you are they would look nicer though wouldn't they with your trumpet like coffee table sorry did she add that

as well that was also part of it no but it will look nice lovely what do I get in here now pardon what do I get in here now because this is creaking so this is

no you need you still need a comfortable chair but they actually do some great dining chairs from Dulles I'm alright thank you

after what you've said about that no absolutely not I need to order I need to order two dining chairs from dolls. I'm alright, thank you. After what you've said about that, absolutely not. I need to order two dining chairs and I'm fucking devastated. In all honesty, I don't want to hear about that place ever again. It's banned. I'm not interested. I get it, I get it.

The shoe cabinet's finished, gone, done. Get yourself to Ikea, buy a little shoe cabinet and be done with it i found another one however i did receive a box of chocolate jingles today from lapland uk oh well that's good that's really good so all is well earlier received something in a bashed up box with no tissue paper around it or anything which wasn't very good was it sweet no yeah we can't talk about it, but it's absolutely hideous. Shocking.

And just left on the doorstep. I just can't bear it. And I'm at home. Just give me a small minute. Not asking for much. It's true. That's why I do love. I know people like internet shopping,

but I really love going to the shop. I really enjoyed going to the shop today, getting some inspiration, talking to people. But you did it on, you went on the train, so you put all the bags back on the train. My arms and hands. No, obviously agony. But we normally go and we normally drive. Drive, yeah. Or get a cab.

I would have driven this morning, but it was two hours and ten minutes to London. No, you can't. The traffic these days, you can't go anywhere, you can't get a cab. I would have driven this morning, but it was two hours and ten minutes to London. No, you can't. The traffic these days, you can't go anywhere, you can't get anywhere quickly, and I'm not spending four hours. I went to Harlow earlier. Yes. And people are fucking cutting in.

And do you know what? How you feel about parents' faces, that's how I feel. We've done that. No, well, that's what reminded me today. You know the bit where there's a yellow crisscross and you're not allowed to be in that? Some people want to turn in.

So I was the normal person and laid back. And everyone's cutting in. And then people just cut in. No, you need to stay bumper to bumper. I was raging. And then as I've got round the roundabout to go, it's like, oh, cut, just cut, just trying to get in. I didn't let anyone in.

I don't let them in. It's Oh, just cut. Just trying to get in. I didn't let anyone in. I don't let them in. It's really, really bad. So anyway, I was going to Smith's because I had a collection, which, by the way, phenomenal. Did my order earlier. Yeah. Ten minutes later, I got a text saying your order's ready to collect. Ten minutes. Anyway.

Could I just say one thing about that? What? They obviously had everything in the store. Right. Why did you not just go there? Who's got time? I haven't got time. But you went there to collect it. Yeah, I haven't got time to walk in the store. Right. Why did you not just go there? Who's got time? But you went there to collect it. Yeah, I haven't got time to walk around the store finding stuff.

Understood. Right. And then, so I had the kids with me. Yeah. Bought a couple of things anyway. Then I said, I've got my collection. He's bought them out. Oh, no, no.

It's what we were just saying. All the things so they can see it. In see-through bags. No, they didn't. Yes, they did. I said, sorry? I said, what? I said, I'm just confused.

I said, why are your bags see-through? I mean, no. What, in Smiths? In Smiths, see-through bags. He said, oh, so we can see. I said, no, I've got the children with me. So I've had to go. Luckily, I parked right up to the shop.

I had to put the kids in the car, run back in, get the stuff, and throw it in the boot. Have you ever heard anything like it? We were just saying. This happens to me today. Sort of recycling, and I get all of that, you know, less packaging. Absolutely, yeah. But you're delivering things without being in a box.

So Nat's received something today. It's got no box. And luckily, she had somebody working here a workman who's bought it in and said I've hid it round the door and put a towel over it what do you mean?

because it was just the item it was just the item so if if they'd have got home from school it would have just been in the hall

or on the doorstep the item how's it not in a box? no it's the item not in a cardboard box just the box of the item imagine buying a board game

and then just putting Monopoly on your doorstep yeah I mean that's bamboozling it was very fortunate the timing of it I mean thank god and he's lovely he didn't need to do that

he's like I've put it round the corner and put a towel on it no yes it's madness even like we went and bought a birthday present

yeah and then the kids were like oh I love that I love this I I love that. So I tried to pick a couple of sneaky things out because I thought otherwise I'll forget. Only little things. Yeah. And again, I'm like, can I have a bag?

Do you think I'm going to just carry them all out with me? Like, I need a bag. But you didn't give me a bag. You just put them in the see-through bag. The see-through bag thing is very strange. I understand that they want to see it but they surely should just be

in a bag with a number an order number on or just put it in another bag that's got I'm sure the Smiths bags used to be blue

didn't they used to be like blue and white no well before yes yes they have they have been blue Maria or just put them

in something right fucking hell Ellie is completely wrong on that who has rattled your cage you two are really Yes, they have. They have been blue, Maria. We'll just put them in something. Right. Fucking hell. Ellie is completely wrong on that. Who has rattled your cage? You two are really aggy tonight. No, she's aggy. What's your problem?

She's under pressure. She's had a briseco. No, because she, right, so she's like, oh, come do a pod. Yeah, you know, have a drink. Yeah. And now because she's got jobs to do, she wants us down and out. No, I ain't going anywhere. No, no, no.

I'm staying here all night long. That is not true. Oh, no. That is not true. And as Lionel Richie said, you can stay all night long. He didn't say that. He didn't say that, did he? He didn't say that.

I thought she was going to say that. I thought she was going to come out with another song. Do you know what I watched the other night? There we go. What she watched selene documentary i've not seen it i really need to oh my god i'm gonna have to watch it again why i drank four glasses of whiskey whilst watching it why it's so sad what a woman what's wrong with her she's got this that um sps it's called i think it. It's like a... I knew she was poorly.

She tenses up, all her, she gets like that muscular... Is it like an immune system thing? Oh, muscular. Yeah. Gosh. And her singing, her... Yeah. Oh, it's so sad.

What an amazing woman. You didn't think that when I got two tickets to see her and then nobody would come with me. I remember. So then I had to sell them. Why didn't we go? Because Celine Dion, I'm not going to see Celine Dion. Yes. nobody would come with me I remember so then I had to sell them why didn't we go because you Celine Dion

I'm not going to see Celine Dion when you were in your weird like oh I only go and see Panic at the Disco or some shit you came to that I did that I was sick to be fair

but you know when she was weird I'm still weird hi Nat it's Mel here from Bejand I just wanted to send you a message that i've been meaning to send you for a while so when i was catching up with the podcast i was um listening to all of the conversations about what you want to name your followers like all the different things and

um one thing that kept coming back to me was oh or I might have missed it, but calling it as the Mad Natters, you know, like Alice in Wonderland, the Mad Hatter's Tea Party. And then I kind of been thinking I need to send this as a message to you, but I haven't because of whatever. But in my mind, I visualized it. And actually, I've put a picture together because I thought you might find find it quite funny so here it is and I'm not weird I just like making things on photoshop so hope you enjoy and I hope it makes you laugh bye oh thank you so much is excellent it's really really good really good and you love Alice in Wonderland and she doesn't know that but I love Alice in Wonderland we have spoken about that before oh maybe when we spoke about when you said about

New Forest you mean at the graveyard oh Alice Liddell yeah oh Liddell Liddell Liddell in Price

I wouldn't mind a little bit more of that champagne but the picture was brilliant very very good however before they say it natty and

ellie are both texts and said well you should have been the rabbit or the mad hare not because i'm mad but because my teeth that's nice yeah they missed a trick there this was a message from joe which i'm not going to read it all out but basically she was talking about the fridge being a war zone and i was like that is excellent it's very good that isn't it yeah she just said other days it might be me throwing something in there hoping it was enough to force to wedge itself in between items but it's a mess most of times I know others have organized tidy havens where everything is in reach and color coordinated so tidy fridge or messy fridge I think that's a great question joe i think i am in the middle

i think i can organize it it's always clean i think it's organized in a certain way i have dairy at the top i usually have my fruits and vegetables all in the drawers and then sort of miscellaneous picky bits in the middle as well and then sort of the bottom shelf before the drawers goes the main meals, the meats, et cetera. However, it can get into a bit of a pickle and I am certainly not organising with boxes and colour coding. Who has got time for that? No, but mine is organised.

Majority of the time. Why are you looking at me like that? Because the last few times I've been round, I've not been able to fit anything in it. Yeah, it's got a lot of stuff in the fridge. What? Go and look at my fridge. Oh no, there is now because I've been to the shops today,

but there was nothing in it this morning. What do you mean? A lot of stuff. It's when the baby was born. People kept bringing stuff around and I'd open it and something was going to fall out. There was so much stuff in there. Yeah, that's because everyone kept bringing food around. Yeah.

No, my fridge is, and every week it gets like, everything's chucked out. Do you know what annoys me with mine? Go on. The bottles. Yours is a messy fridge. No, it's not that's an absolute liberty

you've got a lot of saucy stuff open we don't really have open stuff like half of a dip or you know like just like four olives

left in a thing no get rid of it no what half a cucumber no what do you mean

you've got to have half a cucumber. No, but it's... No, no, no, no, no. That's bullshit. Or like a quarter of a lemon. What have we started? Carry on, girls. I'm just going to enjoy my drink and watch the show.

Quarter of a lemon? You have a lot of stuff. I have two kids. I don't like waste, Elia. Always wasting stuff. No. It's organised. I've got all my Coke Zeros in the top left corner.

All my Coke Zeros. All my jars of little nuggins at the top. What, in the fridge? On a turntable. Yeah. What do you mean? Who's got room? Well, because you need to turn it so I can see.

No. Otherwise you're not... Oh my God. Just smash and play. Just do a new pod room smash and play to get the chairs I need to do the whole

shebangle on my phone no mine excuse me it's very organised all my meats and stuff in the middle

meal stuff it's the bottom shelf so I reckon Wednesday we all take a photo on our fridge we put it on and people can

judge the only thing we can't sort it out yeah that's what I'm saying we can't sort it out well no I'll come round anonymously I do

right I do give mine a good sort out and then it does go a little bit skew-iff so now she's opening up no she's coming now the tree but that happens to everyone

no it doesn't yoghurt's in the middle it's the things the tomato ketchup the mayonnaise the peronese those things they don't fit in anywhere so they all just's in the middle. It's the things. The tomato ketchup, the mayonnaise, the peronese. Those things.

They don't fit in anywhere. So they all just lay in the bottom. That's aggravation. Yeah, or when you have sauces in your salad drawer. You do things like that. Yeah, that's weird. That freaks me out. Yeah, because otherwise they're rattling around everywhere and that stresses me out.

No. No, that's freaky. But they don't stand up, so I have to lay them all down. No way. So what do you do about that? I've not got a fridge like yours where you've got all singing and all dancing. I haven't got that. No, so what do you do with all your...

Yeah, what do you do with your sauces? Put them all in the door. They all fit. Oh, I've got my water jug in there. I've got my milk. That's because you've got that water thing. Filter water. Which you don't use.

Because I haven't got a posh tap like you, Ellie. So I have to have filter water in a jug no no you've got one no no your fridge provides water

yeah but it's not filtered so but why have you got that fridge then if you've got a Brita filter in it as well have one or the other

because at the time I didn't know it was just to keep the water cold I thought it would filter the water it does not okay well that's your problem it is my problem but now I'm paying the price filter the water cold. I thought it would filter the water. It does not. Okay, well, that's your problem.

It is my problem. But I know what you mean. Now I'm paying the price. All right, filter the water and pour it in. Fuck off, Elliot. Yeah, you could do that. But just do it from outside. Do it in the morning, leave it, pour it in.

That's a really good idea. And then you've got more room. No, I haven't, because then the tank goes back in. But the tank is there anyway. You still won't have a Brita jug in your fridge. I'll have the tank, so you still can't fit things under it. But no, but you still won't have a Brita jug in your fridge. I'll have the tank so you still can't fit things under it.

But the tank is always there. I'm going to try that. I like it. You can't remove the tank. No, I have. I've removed the tank. I don't know

what's going on. I'm over it. Anyway, let's move on. Thank you, Jo. It's a great question about the fridge. Well done, Jo.

What about when I got my fridge, Jo. It's a great question about the fridge. Well done, Jo. What about when I got my fridge, Jo, and I wanted to keep the fridge where it was? No, what did I do wrong earlier? I can't remember. The fridge wasn't there in the first place, was it? Yes, it was. It was by the door, wasn't it?

No. The original fridge was there. Yes. Natalie wanted the one with the water yeah which she should have got because her water was finished in this place yes decided the fridge isn't going to go there that's right she's going to have the fridge there which was weird yes ordered the fridge without the water and then has moved to have the fridge in a certain place then moved the fridge back to the original place.

Where it could have been plumbed. Where it's plumbed. But there's stuff there for it. I think I might. But that's you all over. It is. So do you have an ice dispenser? No, nothing.

No. Not even in the drawer. No, they're rubbish on that fridge. That particular fridge. But I make my own ice, so it's fine. Yeah, I've got an ice maker. I haven't really used it. I need to get back onto that.

We're so obsessed with ice, aren't we? I love ice. Just another thing on the side. I can't have that. Yeah, no, it's in the other room. That's the thing, the Brita filter, then it's on the side. Oh, no, because you're going to fill it and pour it. When am I going to do that, Ilya?

Just sit there all day and watch it wait. Also, how do you know when it takes 20 minutes? How do you know? I'm filling mine up every time I use it. Yours is in the fridge. I know, but I'm drinking a lot of water. That's what I do when I use it. But also, that's crazy because you've got a tap.

Still not filtered. Why are you all obsessed with filtered water? Because water is not good. You should not be drinking water that isn't filtered. It's mine filtered. Yes. Because you've got a tap. Is she okay?

Oh, yeah. So, yeah, I don't want another thing On the side Also How do you know When the filter's Not working It flashes

Flashes What? The light The top of it Yeah Has got a little screen Yeah You press it in

Yeah For a long time And all the little black steps Come up Yeah Once that's flashing It's gone all the way down You pull it out

And you put another filter in it. I think I might have some filters at home. It's all of that. Lovely idea, but all of that is upkeep. Well, if you haven't changed your filter and you're using the jug. There's no point. It's absolutely no point whatsoever. Just get it straight from the tap.

Get it from the tap. There is no point in you having. When was the last time you've done your filter? I don't know. Eight months. And you're still using a jug. That gives me anxiety. How often should you change the filter?

Every four weeks, depending on how much you use it. Four weeks? I'm flushes every four weeks. Oh. What are we talking about here? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. A year? Oh, stop.

Yeah, would you... Yeah. Okay. Well, just use the tap. We got any more crackers? That was a cracker. I thought we were eating crackers. I thought we were having some cheese.

Who did I? She said that's for red wine. Oh, cheese. Oh, Wallace and Grom, that's for red wine. Oh, cheese. Oh, Wallace and Gromit is on Christmas Day. I'm so excited. What have they done though? I haven't seen it. Is it a new one?

Yeah. Shut up. I'm so excited. Is it a new one? I just saw the advert. I wasn't sure. What's your favourite one? I'd have to say Grand Day Out.

Not the wrong trousers. I like the wrong trousers. It's a bit scary, that one. It reminds me of when I was younger. Not now. The were-rabbit. Yeah, like just when I was younger, I remember being a bit scared. Wrong day out, because when he cuts...

Wrong day out. The grand trousers. I can't open these because I've got no nails on. These excite me. Thank you. I've got my nails on, finally. They look lovely, Elia. I'm really pleased. Elia's decided to go to nails on, finally. They look lovely, Elia. I'm really pleased.

Elia's decided to go to a new nail shop. Again. Really, really impressed. Really, really lovely. What are you laughing at? Where are these from? Sorry. These are Trivial Pursuit.

Grandad would have liked these. He would have loved those. And they're from Lidl. And they were 15 quid. I'm going to Lidl. I cannot believe. I caught it. I can't believe that.

It's good, isn't it? Did you get that on camera? I think my arm went up. No. I don't think you saw it. Absolutely gutted, really. I'm really upset that we're not going to play this properly. I know I am a bit.

Where's the board going? Also, as we're talking, and I know it's really boring, my nose is getting more blocked as the evening goes on and I have not got time to have a cold. I already sound like I've got a permanent cold in everyday life. I cannot double it up.

Can you Google it? I like that. Without me sounding like this. I've dropped my phone, so. I prefer Moet. Why? I just think it sounds better. Maybe it's Fricksonet.

No, because. No, because it hasn't got a dot. Nah. It hasn't got a dot. The dot's perfect. Anyone, are we going to Google it or not? No, just 07788201919. If you know how to pronounce moet or moet, if you're good at French, let us know about the dots, the frexenets, the frexenets,
