Starting point is 00:00:00 Greetings viewer dear, I'm Tom. I'm Ben. And I am Matthew and welcome to a very exciting episode of Pappy's Fletcher. It absolutely is always an exciting episode when Clark he decides to bless us was one with one of his first-rate anecdotes. Oh boy. And this one comes straight from his holiday in Malta. Yes. Yeah, we're, you know, sometimes on a sort of magazine-style podcast, they'll say we're devoting today's episode to one story.
Starting point is 00:00:28 and that's really true in this case we're devoting the entire episode to one absolutely scintillating story you're not going to want to miss this one and occasionally now the press will pick up they'll listen to podcasts and they'll run this in like the Daily Mail Online or something like this is going to be one of those kind of
Starting point is 00:00:48 I don't want to I'm not going to spoil it suspense plot twists an incredible conclusion we wish it had any of those things all it has is one unreliable narrator and two people intent on fucking it up syllable by syllable.

Starting point is 00:03:04 What's the, what was that? I took my guitar. Is there a phone or a mandolin or both? Bring, bring, bring. Hello, boat rentals. Let me finish the act out. Hello, boat rentals. You like a boat.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Are you on holiday? I do like the idea of somebody who works deep in the sort of tourist industry who's always slagging off people who are on holiday. Yeah. Who gives a shit, mate. Oh, you're on holiday, are you? You're on a fucking boat. Where are you guys from, France?
Starting point is 00:03:39 Yeah, well, I was. No, he couldn't give it a bit of a shit. Anyway, Clarkie, you're on your holidays, man. Went on a boat trip. Beautiful. You, are you driving the boat? You're sat on someone else's boat, like some kind of fucking piece of shit. Wait, Tom, check your attitude here.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Clarkie's trying to tell us a story. Wait, is it a brag or what? Sheving his holiday in my face. We sat on someone else's boat. Did they know? Go on, go on. Sorry, right, here we go. No, no.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Tell me. No, no, seriously. Forget about him. Forget about him, tell me. Does the boat trip start? Bragg. Oh, it started, did it? It's one of those boat trips.
Starting point is 00:04:24 It's one that starts. Can I have a boat trip that starts? I'm on my honeybubbs. I just want to check, because I've had a few that didn't start. Does this one start? We have booked for it to start. And it's our holiday. Brogg
Starting point is 00:04:36 Anyway Sorry, Clarkie We apologize Sorry, sorry You're on No, no, no You mustn't But
Starting point is 00:04:42 Well, so The boat ship starts I can picture And a guy stands up And it's like quite a small boat So he stands up
Starting point is 00:04:51 And he's facing out Which is just like You're on a small boat That's not a holiday And the guy goes He goes Here are your fake passports Everyone
Starting point is 00:05:01 Who? He's facing out? He's facing out, but he's like blocking our view. Okay. So he's doing a Titanic. Yeah, kind of out the back of the boat. I'm picturing more like he's got, he's captain of the ship and he's like, that way, lads. What, from the back of the boat?
Starting point is 00:05:20 He's a bad captain. I thought he was at the front. I like the idea. Listen, don't know anyone find out I'm not a real captain. Anyway, that way, lad. That's the back, sir. Is he at the front of the boat? No, he's at the back of the boat.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Right. You remember the carcary story he was telling us? I wasn't really listening, actually. Bragg. This guy stands up at the back. He stands up at the back, and a lady tells him to sit down. He's a passenger. Yes.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Yeah, he's a passenger. Stands up at the back. A lady's like, can sit down, please, you block the view? Of the back. At the back. Well, can't you look at any of the other ways? The side. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:04 There's kind of stuff up on the back. the side. It's like there's a like a nice big view. Are you below deck? It was a submarine. Could you get out of the way of the only of the only periscope we've got? There's like awning up on the side. You can't really see that as well. Good trip. You booked one of those good boats with loads of awning, yeah? Can I can I just like two things. Firstly, will it start? Secondly, will there be absolutely no chance we having any kind of you if one man out. Yeah, great.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Yeah. But there's a nice big space, but he comes and plunks himself. He's a big guy. Oh, yeah. Plonks himself in the middle of. He's holding up onto the bars at the top. Reader, I was that man. He tells him to sit down.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Yeah. So he sits down, but you can tell he's like, I didn't want to sit. I didn't want to sit. He's bristling. He's bristling. And then after about five more minutes, he just stands up. He stands there again. Right.
Starting point is 00:07:06 And the lady's like. She, after about another five minutes, she's like, can you sit down, please? And he's like, why? Like, I'm not blocking anyone's view. And then she... No, the awnings are doing that. She gestures to me and Megan, who are the only people that sat facing the back. Why are you facing the back?
Starting point is 00:07:30 What are you looking out? Very confused by this. It was, okay. It was quite a busy boat. There are seats facing that way. We were like the last on, so we were sat on like this square in the middle. We had to sit facing at the back. Right.
Starting point is 00:07:45 How much do you pay for this? I'm so shit. 15 euro. Oh, fair enough. You get what you pay for. Okay. It was a boat trip. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:54 So there's a boat trip within a boat trip. What? It was a Russian boat trip? It was one of these things. We went on a big boat trip to like an island. You're on a life boat that's on like a cruise ship. And there's a tarp over the top of you. You were stowing away, and she was saying,
Starting point is 00:08:11 if you keep standing up, we're going to get caught. Paddington's in the corner looking out some marmalade. The worst way of describing it. That's what he does. I think. Yeah, but come on. It gets right in amongst it. Thanks for ruining Pallington forever now.
Starting point is 00:08:25 Yeah. And Lady Marmalade. Anyway. Anyway. She tries to get you into the mix. We're on the big boat trip. Yeah. Well, you've asked me to explain more than us.
Starting point is 00:08:37 on the big boat trip and while we're on the big boat trip there's videos playing of like better low trips yeah yeah there's like a speed boat going to caves and we're like hold on you can't do that on the big boat this isn't what so hang on you got on a small boat to get to the big boat we got on the big boat first oh big boat for going to an island makes sense and then they come around they go by the way on these videos if you want to go do that yeah 15 euros okay oh okay yeah so it's like an added it's like add on boat trip right so like you can go on the speedboat and then you get on the speed boat
Starting point is 00:09:13 and they're like, you can go on the coracle. I'm going to skim a stone in a second. You can stand on top of it. 15 euros. 15 euros. Yeah. You just sat on a boy. Can you sit down please?
Starting point is 00:09:31 I can't see. Oh, I just sat on my boy. Could do barmalade. You can't eat marmalade that's out of my boy. Don't stick marmalade on it. Oh dear. Marmalade, by the way, gross. Carry on.
Starting point is 00:09:49 I can't believe it's even the debate. I love it. Yeah, it's great. What you want about? What you want about? Yeah, it's delicious. Gross. Do you think...
Starting point is 00:09:58 Do you like orange? Yeah. Do you think it's something to do with the... Right, case closed. What do you mean? Do you think it's something? to do with the prefix mar that you either love it or you hate it you've got your marmalade you've got your marmite you've got marmasettes it doesn't listen don't why are you interrogating me on this
Starting point is 00:10:19 it doesn't hold up to tremendous scrutiny you do love or hate marmises it's true isn't it the marky decide i'm all you know you're either really into that sort of thing or you're like oh chill out mate i haven't ever thought that before though is marmite in the slip stream of marmalade is that why they call it that and what does ma'am mean as a problem Preffat. Ma'am. Professors. And do you prefer,
Starting point is 00:10:43 Marlboret? I'm professors of ma'am. I'm a professor, ma'am. Anyway, let's not go down that route. So, Clarkie. You're on a boat and a boat. We're on a boat and a boat.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Someone stood up. Boated in a boat. And he stood up. And so she's like, did everyone on the big boat pay for the smaller boat trip? No. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Otherwise there wouldn't be enough room I'm confused now Are you on the smaller boat I'm on the smaller boat? Right so you got off the big boats Got on the smaller boat Yeah 15 euros 15 euros
Starting point is 00:11:14 And this is a video of a speed boat Right They show you a video of a speed boat But you're not on a speed boat No it is But it's not quite as good as the one On the video There's more awning than the one
Starting point is 00:11:23 On the video Sure Yeah Okay And are you the last ones on Because you're the last ones To swing for the 15 euros You're seeing everyone get on
Starting point is 00:11:33 No It was just It was our coach back to where it was was the last coach as well there was all sorts mate this is a terrible holiday was there at any point where your feet were on the ground did you ever touch any pavement or soil at any point or were you constantly in motion yeah were you on the run did you do hunted sit down mate they'll spot us you got a coach to a boat to a boat yeah okay Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:09 Yeah. And then, the guy stood up. Again. You're right, Clarkie. Do you feel like we could, do you feel like we could work a sort of police interrogation
Starting point is 00:12:23 to break people's will? I feel like we could. Because I don't think we've ever met a Clarkie anecdote or we couldn't pull up one small thread and the whole thing falls apart. They are built on shifting sand. They are.
Starting point is 00:12:36 They've run aground. There's very rarely a concrete fan. to these bad boys. So far, so far, reading the headlines, it's man stands up. Well, it's not a terrible story. I'm enjoying it.
Starting point is 00:12:50 I feel like I'm on holiday. What was he standing up for? Just to, well, I guess to enjoy the view more. Right, okay. But at the expense. The view here was better than the view here. He sat with his back to the best view.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Oh, okay. So he's going to stand up. So he's looking into the boat and he's like, I want to look that way. He's looking at you and Megan. basically. Yeah. Basically that's it.
Starting point is 00:13:10 And the lady's like, can you sit down? You're looking at two people having the worst holiday of their life. Clarkie's telling an anecdote. Megas go, what? I know,
Starting point is 00:13:20 we're on the boat right now. 30 euros for this. We're facing that way. Yeah, but each. That's good point. He's done to you there. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Case dismissed. Cheers. End of anecdote. So. Sorry, Clarkie. Sorry. This must be very frustrating. I have got a question for you though.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Must be very frustrating for Matthew and Tom. What's the view that way? An island. There's, there's, there's, there's, yeah, we're leaving one island to go to another one. So it's nice. It is out of the back. It's nice, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Yeah. And, uh, he, he, he stood up again. He stood up the second time. Yeah. She asked him a second time. And he's like, what, like, why? Yeah. And she's like, you're like, you're.
Starting point is 00:14:10 ruined in the view and then she points to me and Megan for them yeah so he turns around and i think you're brought into the situation we're brought into the situation i think she maybe had clot that when he stood up i made a little snide comment to megan about him doing that what do you say i can't remember something like that guy's ruined him on view okay okay okay i think i even took a photo of him whoa whoa you just a photo of a stranger there's photographic evidence of this Can we flash it up now on the pod? No.
Starting point is 00:14:44 We're not taking photos of strangers and put him on our podcast. That cannot be the case. He does have his back to me. I think it's still, it's only his ass. In my defense, you're on that. I took photos of people's asses. I was only taking a picture of his ass.
Starting point is 00:14:58 Yes, I was lying. Yes, I was lying in the gutter outside of a nightclub, but I was only taking photos of people's asses. So, oh, that is a, that is a crime. Is it okay? Fair enough. Not on me. No.
Starting point is 00:15:10 never said. Yeah. I would find this photo useful just to get a bearing of what the hell's going on. I'm really confused by this awning setup that goes all the way around the boat apart. There are kind of windows, but because it's like, you know, it's like the plasticy awning thing. So some bits are solid and some bit are like plastic windows. Right. But at the back is just...
Starting point is 00:15:34 Nothing but sky. Pure. Pure. Pure view. Panoramic. Nice. So you'd make it... Or pan. I was going to say, it doesn't feel very panoramic.
Starting point is 00:15:43 If the view is only through here, but it's more... It's more... It's the opposite of panoramic. It's a blurry polaroids. It's not so much, yeah. It's pinprick aperture is what it is. It's not...
Starting point is 00:15:58 It's not your IMAX cinema here. It's what you're getting. It's an I'm in. You're looking through the keyhole into an IMAX cinema. It's what's going on. And a monster. And that keyhole is a guy's ass on.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I'm taking a picture off. We forget that Clarkie brings a, for his holiday photographs, he brings a colonoscopy camera, doesn't he? After he had his, after he had his midlife check, he said, do you why have I take that camera? You take it to the selfie, Clarkie? Yes, I am. Give us a quick. background on who this guy is. Give us a character. What's his, what age? Travelling on his own? No, he's there with his wife. She's, she keeps quiet.
Starting point is 00:16:48 She sat down. She sat down. He's, he's quite, is she, is she facing you? Is she facing you? Yeah. So when you made that comment to Megan, she's seeing it. It was for, it was so. Thank you for this. Thanks for that, mate. Yeah, go on. How that kind of thing for that, mate, snap. Nice for you. If you said nice view and then took a picture of his ass. I didn't take a photo right in there straight away. Nice view. Did that later on.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Can I ask, was this a sex tourism? Is that why the boat's completely enclosed so we can fuck on it? It's a very nice view. It's a fuckboat. I thought so. Did you get on a fuckboat? Did someone stand up on a fuckboat? Never stand up on a fuckboat.
Starting point is 00:17:33 No. I think that's one of the songs from West Side Story, isn't it? Oh, Skies and dolls. Guy's in dolls. Guys and dolls. Oh, no. Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down and you're fucking the boat. So yeah, you've got a guy standing up on the fuck boat.
Starting point is 00:17:49 And a doll. And a doll. His doll sat next to him. She's not complaining, but you've got another person there who's also complaining and is trying to get you into the mix. How do you react to a situation like that, Lucky? Oh, not well. No. I really, yeah, really kind of went inside myself.
Starting point is 00:18:06 With the camera. quick I'm going to get to the selfie I'm going to get my 15 euros worth by hook and my crook Foot boat ticket for one He's a Johnny sailor
Starting point is 00:18:21 He really is A periscope Oh dear Oh dear Evee Okay Is this guy older than you? Yes I'd say he's

Starting point is 00:19:18 Ray! How's that? Oh, sorry, that's my camera. What's that? More like. You should get yourself checked out for that. People were very disappointed when they had me their camera. Do you mind taking a photo of me?
Starting point is 00:19:33 Oh. Oh. That third umpire's a bit close. So you're in the melee now. You're in the situation. You either have to side with her or you have to side with him. Yeah, and I do either. Yeah, I do either.
Starting point is 00:19:50 So it's... Hit me out, Dame Helen Mirren. You're not going to believe it. She loves a fuck boat. So, she is... kind of yeah similar age I'd say she's with a younger lady as well very modern okay yeah don't know don't know what their relationship is um no not the time to ask is it don't ask is it before he sits down what's going

She's brought you in for backup. No, she's quite, she's trying to be really polite. She's also defending your rights. You've thrown out these vibes that you're not happy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:55 She's stood up for you. And he's stood up for himself to have a look. The only person not standing up is you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was a real coward in the situation. I would imagine.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Yeah, but I would imagine Megan in that kind of situation, she comes into her own. She must have loved it. She did as she kept quiet as well. Really? She loves the fact that her man's a real caro. This is a little reminder of why we're together. Come on, Megan, it's a fuck pooh.
Starting point is 00:21:31 I mean, I feel, I know, I feel such an affinity for you in this situation because I am frequently in a situation with my partner where I know I should be the one. even even like sending a meal back in a restaurant or like some kind of and I hate those moments where you have to kind of
Starting point is 00:21:48 step up to the plate yeah but I don't know you do have to do that if you send it the meal back this table's too high okay we can't eat here have you got one of those child seats that you can slap me I actually have you asked that quite a lot
Starting point is 00:22:03 one child seat please and then two normal seats for my kids but yeah but then you you know do you have to step up to the plate can you say actually no this is this is fine hey let's let's live and let live he's massive you know is they're not a way of doing that it was tricky because i like i didn't want to defend him because i think he was doing the wrong thing but at the same time i'm like well i don't really want to get into an argument about it i'm like i'll just touch like i'll be quite happy being a bit upset by this guy.
Starting point is 00:22:39 I don't actually want to... You love being upset by things. You think this is actually improving my holiday. I love being a bit upset. Or part and parcel. Also, we don't know his situation. You know, he could have... He could have deep vein thrombosis
Starting point is 00:22:49 and has to kind of constantly be moving around. He could have... You know, he could have all manner of reasons why... Physical reasons why he needs to keep standing up. It's true. It's true. He didn't bring any of those out. That's not what's going on, though, is it?
Starting point is 00:23:02 He wants to look at the view. It really felt out. Hasn't he said that? Didn't he say that in the first exchange? he wants to look at the view I can't remember but it got slightly spicier as the boat trip went on
Starting point is 00:23:14 right well it's a puck boat you know that she'll pay 15 euros for this well 30 sorry for you so how did it get spicy the young lady asked him like for a third time

Starting point is 00:24:47 No one said anything either way. Why don't you stand up? Why don't they stand up? Wouldn't improve any of our views. They wouldn't be able to look over the awning. He's got the... Is there a roof? There's a roof, yeah. Oh, right, okay. I've got no idea what it's boat looks like. I didn't think there was a roof.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Imagine it like a car. Well, I guess there has to be with warnings, but... Imagine it like a car, maybe. But if you're... You forgot to tell us it was chitty, chitty bang, bang. That'd sink straight away. Who wants for 15 euros? I will drive a car into the sea.
Starting point is 00:25:25 It was with me. No standing up. Oh. Okay. Sorry. Sorry. And I've got to... ask the question at what point do you drop an egg

Starting point is 00:26:08 mind your own business. Mind your own business. I've never said that. No. I've ever said, mind your own business. Mind your own business. And that's pretty much where
Starting point is 00:26:19 like he stays up for the rest of the trip and no one says anything to him. Can I ask? There are glances. There's a guy over here that looks at them and kind of like,
Starting point is 00:26:29 is like, you know, and rolls his eyes at the guy's an asshole. Everyone thinks this guy's an asshole. Your sharing looks? By that point I'm like I can't now start sharing look I can't now be like oh yeah you're right because it's like
Starting point is 00:26:44 you did this on my behalf and I kept quiet you're filming I've got my secret camera and then you get to then we look at some caves and go back it's quite a short trip oh so this is not you're not going to an island you're not going to run off and no we did actually we did but did you think right well I'm getting to the back of the boat when you get back on on the boat to leave to go back?
Starting point is 00:27:10 Did you know? Back on the big boat. So the big boat is going to that island as well. This small boat has caused too much trouble. Let's fill it with rocks and sink it. What would the views like on the big boat? I don't know. Weren't on it.
Starting point is 00:27:24 What you said back on the big boat? Oh no. Wait. Okay. So we go on the motorboat. Yeah. The big boat goes as well. But the motorboat goes around the caves of the island, right?
Starting point is 00:27:32 Where the big boat just pulls in. Yeah. And then we get back on the big boats go over at the end. and what the views like off that big boat you know just like big boat views why don't you get your own boat this is what it's building up to yeah
Starting point is 00:27:46 this way you're in Greece we're in Malta Malta you get your own boat not for 15 you're on holiday aren't you chuck a bit of money at it throw a bit of cash at it was there ever a talk you said I can tell from this anecdote
Starting point is 00:28:04 you're never going on a whole day again there's no maybe next year about I'm telling an anecdote again, I'll tell you that much. What you barely did today. And that's not your fault. That's absolutely not your fault in any way. Oh, dear. Do they avoid each other then for the rest of the trip?
Starting point is 00:28:21 Or are you back in the same seats? Oh, no. It's back on big boats, so never the twain, shall be. Do you ever see him again? No, it didn't, actually. Is there any part of you that wishes you... hadn't started telling us this? with every fibre of my being.
Starting point is 00:28:47 I ran through the scenarios the whole time of like what I should say to him. So have you come up with it? No. Did you have like, you haven't come up with it? In the spur of the moment, I was like,
Starting point is 00:28:57 I should like tell him off. And then I was like, well, I don't think you should actually because that might, it might escalate things. Have you ever told someone off in public and afterwards walked away going,
Starting point is 00:29:07 well, I'm glad I did that. It's like, it's never. If you get the red mist descends and you think, oh, this will be, you know, this is a little, I'll prove my point here. The second the telling off begins,
Starting point is 00:29:18 you feel like I've lost this, haven't I? Oh, yeah. I did that thing where I addressed the train carriage. Oh, no. After the, after the, to apologize. The preacher person got off. I told you about that. No?
Starting point is 00:29:33 Well, maybe, but we weren't. We don't remember. By the way, we always, you say, have I told you this? We say no. The comments are just like, yeah, this was two episodes ago, guys. Yeah, yeah. But for the people who weren't listening, Glocky and I, tell us the story again. I was sat on the overground and a preacher got up and said, you're all sinners and you're all going to hell.
Starting point is 00:29:54 Oh, no. Wrong kind of preacher. And was like, we all have to repent of our sins and only the Lord can save you. Okay. Which are all going to hell. Okay. It's turning around. Started out,
Starting point is 00:30:10 that's the hook of Christianity. You know what? What train was this? I'm getting on. I know, I think... It was a fuck train.
Starting point is 00:30:18 He was absolutely right. We were all sinners in that moment. I was nuts deep into Dame Helen. It was awful. She was giving me a colonoscopy. What, it was a hell of a hell of the time on the overground. You both double-joins it?
Starting point is 00:30:34 Big Aussie guys, stood up. Do you know what I would have said to the Aussie guy? Yeah, go on. I'd have gone. Come on, mate. Sit down, mate. This is when good neighbours become good friends.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Because I think that would immediately... And you've always wanted to be buried at sea, haven't you? So it's a two for one special. But I think making a silly neighbours joke to an Aussie would... I think it would... Yeah. It would kind of do something... It's the one time where racism works, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:31:06 It's kind of... It's the one time where... I don't think it's racist. to say, you made neighbours. Your country, your country made a soap opera neighbours. No, I think that's a better one. Just go, yeah, well, you made neighbours.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Put your scuba gear on and fall off the back. This is when good neighbours become good friends. I think you've got a weird laugh. And I think it would have done something to his authority in standing up just by bringing in the Australian notion of the soap opera. So, but it's taken me a while to get there. Yeah, yeah. did you sing
Starting point is 00:31:39 and now we're there we're not entirely happy with it did you sing the East Ender's theme tune to the carriage where the preacher got I went doosh dish dish dish and got off
Starting point is 00:31:49 that would have got that pretty good I imagine no yeah so the preacher did that and then I'm just trying to think whether they got off or whether they stayed on but they I think they got off
Starting point is 00:32:02 and then I was getting off the next stop and I stood up and said I just want to say I think all of that's a load of bollocks and you're all just trying your best. You just shouldn't feel that kind of judgment
Starting point is 00:32:12 and it's all okay. We just kind of make the best of this life. Yeah, that feels quite... So just ignore that stuff. That feels quite measured, but were people... And then I got off. Were people... Well, it's just...
Starting point is 00:32:21 You're just adding to the weirdness, like... Yeah, everybody clapped. Because, like... Yeah, exactly. And it's like... I don't know. As I was doing it, I was like, well, what are you after here?
Starting point is 00:32:31 Yes. Like, I don't... I just felt so strongly about what they just said. Yeah, I was like, I'm just going to counter that and say, that's... I think that's... and it's like, you know, everyone's just trying their best. You got to just keep trying your best.
Starting point is 00:32:41 But immediately I was like, oh no. Oh, no, this is happening. At least you were getting off. I'm doing it. Because you missed the third guy. He said, that guy's a fucking asshole. They're both as bad as each other actually. Every stop.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Until one person's answer goes, just me. It pops off. Wax a camera up his ass. That was a great time. End of the line. Yeah. kind of thought, oh no, oh no, what's gone on here then. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:13 And not, you have exactly the same thing. People are going like, oh. Yeah. Bye. Nice energy, though. Well, the intention was there, but I imagine you, you could probably say that about the preacher as well. I guess the intention's pure.
Starting point is 00:33:27 It's just everyone's going about things. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. It's overcorrected. Did you say you guys, none of you are sinners, in fact. You're wrong. None of you have ever.
Starting point is 00:33:38 I committed a single sin. Even worse, I went round absolving everyone of those. I went person to person. A few impromptu baptisms. I haven't got any holy water but I've got some Lucas Aide, there you go. I've got some Luke Zad and some wet wipes.
Starting point is 00:33:51 God bless you. God bless you. Someone sneezed. You ever, this is a weird just suddenly. Go on. Obviously, when you have kids,
Starting point is 00:34:07 wet wipes suddenly come back. into life Oh yeah, big way. And sneezing with a wet wipe. Oh, it's terrible.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Don't mind it at all. Really? Second only two, wiping your ass with a wet wipe and it's like, why I don't know I do this all the time?
Starting point is 00:34:21 Because you block because you block my toilet off. You don't flush it. Whoa. And that's the reason why you don't do it all the time. And also,
Starting point is 00:34:30 you have to carry it around with you until you find a discreet bin. But my God, it feels like luxury at the time. That was how you ended your speech. And by the way,
Starting point is 00:34:38 Is anyone having a discreet bin? The guy I think none of ye have sin But I do have this But I know I have I do have this wet wipe Covering in shit Has anyone got a plucky bag
Starting point is 00:34:51 I could pop it in Anyone at all? We're all just trying our best We're all just trying our best Can you pop that in your bag? Can I just apologise for pop shitting into a Tupperware while you were watching me?
Starting point is 00:35:03 That's the reason the guy stood up in the first place Hold this of whatever you do don't sneeze Is it there? Oh, boy. Boy, oh, boy. No, I find sneezing into a wet wipe,
Starting point is 00:35:18 I don't know where... Yes. I don't know what... Where the wet starts and the sneeze stops. Exactly. So I'm like, it's a panic. Do you need to know, though? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:32 Just one swift movement, Dan, in your L.A.? No, no. No. For everyone else? For everyone else? else for everyone else the clarky on a tube train is blowing your nose big blow one more blow that's cleared it okay on to you you might have used the same tissue do you and can you sit down don't tell me to sit down oh dear is that a fog or no Clark is just blown his nose into a wet wipe
Starting point is 00:36:04 enjoy the rest of your holiday yeah it's all right kind of peaked at the boat trip and I'm honest oh no that sounds that's the saddest thing I've ever heard I can tell you now
