                                         Hello, you're listening to Shag Marinoid with me, the big whore, and my husband, Christopher Ramsey.
                                         
                                         You are the big whore. I'm so glad. I'm so glad you finally admitted it.
                                         
    
                                         Chris just called me a big whore before we started recording.
                                         
                                         See, that's the fun. So the real fun, the real fun of having a wife who you love is all of the sexist things that I could never say to any other woman on the planet.
                                         
                                         I can just say it to you and I get away with it scot-free.
                                         
                                         Literally just about to record, you went, have a good show, you big whore.
                                         
                                         I was like, great, thanks for that.
                                         
                                         And you know, you are going to have a good show whilst being a big whore.
                                         
                                         So it's happy days.

                                         Rosie's not hungover this week, which is good.
                                         
                                         I am not hungover.
                                         
                                         I'm so sorry about that.
                                         
                                         It's extremely unprofessional.
                                         
                                         Just thought I'd go on my ends.
                                         
                                         Where have I been?
                                         
    
                                         Wow, that hungover, you couldn't remember where you've been.
                                         
                                         We've been to the theatre.

                                         That's what we've been doing.
                                         
                                         Right, yeah.

                                         i meant you pick the word again out of there honestly something you know what you should have
                                         
                                         you should have you're not almost like a tombola like when you don't know what a word is you should
                                         
                                         just have a tombola but i think that's probably what happens i think in your head there's a little
                                         
                                         tombola with loads of different words and none of them are assigned
                                         
                                         a meaning and you you barrel into a sentence full on and then you go oh i need a word here
                                         
                                         the handle goes around and you just pick a random word out and you go
                                         
    
                                         here's a question for you do you say thesaurus or thesaurus? What's the right way?
                                         
                                         Thesaurus.
                                         
                                         Thesaurus?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         So who says thesaurus?
                                         
                                         Is that Americans?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         Thesaurus?
                                         
    
                                         No.
                                         
                                         Are you sure?
                                         
                                         I'm positive.
                                         
                                         No one says thesaurus.
                                         
                                         Are you sure?
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         But I think they do.
                                         
                                         What is this?
                                         
    
                                         Because I was thinking I would need a thesaurus
                                         
                                         because I think of a word
                                         
                                         but then you can always
                                         
                                         get a better version
                                         
                                         of the word
                                         
                                         right
                                         
                                         I used to do it a lot
                                         
                                         at school
                                         
    
                                         use a thesaurus
                                         
                                         to get better versions
                                         
                                         of a word
                                         
                                         when you're doing
                                         
                                         like an essay or whatever
                                         
                                         right
                                         
                                         but then I just was like
                                         
                                         thesaurus
                                         
    
                                         or is it thesaurus
                                         
                                         it's not thesaurus
                                         
                                         no one's ever said thesaurus
                                         
                                         okay
                                         
                                         why would you do that
                                         
                                         thesaurus
                                         
                                         why
                                         
                                         that's like looking at
                                         
    
                                         the word shoe
                                         
                                         and going is that shoe
                                         
                                         or is it
                                         
                                         why have you done that to yourself why have you implemented that there's loads of different people
                                         
                                         say loads people say things differently and claim that people say it different are you thinking of

                                         a bit mixed up
                                         
                                         but I think
                                         
                                         you know
                                         
                                         unless you're a bloomin'
                                         
                                         genius
                                         
    
                                         it's a difficult
                                         
                                         language ours is
                                         
                                         it's proved by the fact
                                         
                                         that you nearly
                                         
                                         didn't finish that sentence
                                         
                                         although
                                         
                                         shamefully
                                         
                                         it's not though is it
                                         
    
                                         because so many
                                         
                                         other countries
                                         
                                         speak our language
                                         
                                         we're just horrific over here.
                                         
                                         We're just lazy as fuck.
                                         
                                         I mean, some of us are.
                                         
                                         I mean, not all of us.

                                         I thought you were being extremely sexist
                                         
                                         and saying it's always a woman
                                         
                                         who tells you that the place is haunted.
                                         
                                         First of all,
                                         
                                         let's get a correct definition of sexism here.
                                         
                                         If I have been told by 10 different people
                                         
    
                                         throughout the course of this tour
                                         
                                         that the venue is haunted
                                         
                                         and if all 10 of them have been women,
                                         
                                         that's me referring to them all being women as a fact. That not me being sexist that's me saying every single one of them
                                         
                                         has been no because you are saying it in a derogatory way you were like every single one
                                         
                                         you are saying it in a very nice way always say a lady walking around it's the ghost and i go
                                         
                                         get out me dressing so it's always a woman who's haunting the theatre. It's always a lady. Yeah. Fucking hanging about like a bad smell.
                                         
                                         Oh, I'm just,
                                         
    
                                         honestly, honestly, sick
                                         
                                         of hearing it. It's always like a... So hard to be background
                                         
                                         tourer, but I didn't think me beef with being background tourer would
                                         
                                         be stop telling us your venue's haunted.
                                         
                                         Honestly, you might as well be telling us
                                         
                                         what colour underpants you've got on.

                                         I'm going to put it
                                         
    
                                         no one in the world
                                         
                                         has ever seen a ghost
                                         
                                         ever
                                         
                                         you're lying
                                         
                                         or you think you have
                                         
                                         that's why
                                         
                                         no no
                                         
                                         I want to address this right now you're lying or you think you have. That's why. Because I've got a theory. No, no, I want to address this right now.
                                         
    
                                         You're lying or you think you have.
                                         
                                         If you think you have, really think hard because I don't think you have.
                                         
                                         Because I honestly think if anyone actually saw a ghost,
                                         
                                         their fucking head would explode.
                                         
                                         There'd be a babbling mess.
                                         
                                         People who, you know, you would lose your mind if you saw a ghost.
                                         
                                         If you literally saw someone and then they walked through a wall and you go,
                                         
                                         oh yeah, I saw someone, I woke up and I saw them.
                                         
    
                                         Were you half asleep?
                                         
                                         Was this a dream?
                                         
                                         They don't normally walk through a wall though.
                                         
                                         They normally sat at the bottom of the bed.
                                         
                                         Bollocks.
                                         
                                         It's always that.
                                         
                                         Perched at the bottom of the bed.
                                         
                                         Oh, were you half asleep?
                                         
    
                                         Did you see this thing
                                         
                                         specifically in the state of being
                                         
                                         and consciousness
                                         
                                         where you're half between sleep and awake?
                                         
                                         That's probably the fucking explanation then.
                                         
                                         I'm telling you,
                                         
                                         if anyone actually saw a ghost,
                                         
                                         their head would explode.
                                         
    
                                         You would,
                                         
                                         so many questions of the universe
                                         
                                         would be answered
                                         
                                         the moment you saw a ghost.
                                         
                                         You wouldn't be able
                                         
                                         to contain yourself.
                                         
                                         You'd be like,
                                         
                                         there's an afterlife.
                                         
    
                                         So much.
                                         
                                         You're fucking lying
                                         
                                         or you're stupid.
                                         
                                         I'm telling you right now,
                                         
                                         if you think you're a ghost,
                                         
                                         you're a liar and stupid.
                                         
                                         We bought a house
                                         
                                         that was made in 1870 something.
                                         
    
                                         I don't want to upset anyone

                                         I'm on the fence
                                         
                                         about it all
                                         
                                         and if anyone's

                                         when we moved in
                                         
                                         and shouted at
                                         
                                         everybody

                                         Welcome back to this week's episode of Shagradinoid's Spooky Halloween Edition
                                         
                                         It's absolutely not, it's absolutely not a spooky Halloween dish
                                         
                                         Stop, that's just, that's just a woman screaming, stop it man!

                                         Yeah, it is horrible, it's pointless, that was horrible, though, that thing you just did there.
                                         
                                         Well, it's all about, you know...
                                         
                                         Screaming for no reason.
                                         
                                         Women screaming and that, innit?
                                         
                                         Why is it women...
                                         
                                         Sexist.
                                         
                                         Why can't men scream as well?
                                         
                                         Oh, I am sick of this.
                                         
    
                                         I moved away from the mic.
                                         
                                         Sick of this.
                                         
                                         This is absolutely not Halloween related.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Personally, I hate Halloween.

                                         Absolutely detest Halloween.
                                         
    
                                         Absolutely stupid, beating my arse.
                                         
                                         Why... We've talked about this before

                                         every year it'll get worse
                                         
                                         and worse
                                         
                                         it's another thing

                                         when one of them asked you
                                         
                                         to push them on the swing?

                                         absolutely not.
                                         
    
                                         Where's your man?

                                         when I went to the soft play in South Shields,
                                         
                                         Jumbo Jim's big up,
                                         
                                         and I was crawling around the upstairs,
                                         
                                         chasing Robin around and screaming,
                                         
                                         going like,
                                         
    
                                         and I'd chase him,
                                         
                                         and I'd cornered,
                                         
                                         turned one of the corners,
                                         
                                         and there was a kid there,
                                         
                                         and he was fucking hysterical,
                                         
                                         because I was on all fours,
                                         
                                         going,
                                         
                                         and I came around the corner,
                                         
    
                                         and he went like,
                                         
                                         and he was like, crying his eyes out, and his dad came up, and I was like the corner and he went like and he was like crying his eyes out
                                         
                                         and his dad came up and I was like I'm really
                                         
                                         sorry and he was like oh he's like this all the time
                                         
                                         but he was like
                                         
                                         so he didn't want you to look at him playing
                                         
                                         yeah no no he wasn't
                                         
                                         yeah I really don't like that I wonder if Robin
                                         
    
                                         I'll be mortified if Robin does that to people
                                         
                                         I bet he does I bet he's that kind of kid
                                         
                                         I'm going to have to have a word with him actually
                                         
                                         yeah don't ask strangers to watch you do stuff.
                                         
                                         We went to the soft play the other day,
                                         
                                         and it was the first time we'd been back at the soft play
                                         
                                         since, like, gosh, 2020, beginning of 2020, right?

                                         And now Robin is a little bit bigger.
                                         
                                         I don't have to follow him around the soft play.
                                         
                                         So we've gone from a really strange sort of...

                                         to a grown up
                                         
                                         unless he's with me
                                         
                                         I'll check him
                                         
    
                                         and go say hello
                                         
                                         or whatever
                                         
                                         but if I say to him
                                         
                                         do not speak to an adult
                                         
                                         other than
                                         
                                         if you
                                         
                                         but then
                                         
                                         then you're like
                                         
    
                                         what if he hurts himself
                                         
                                         and he doesn't speak to anyone
                                         
                                         you don't know what to do.
                                         
                                         But I think I just want to tell him that
                                         
                                         so it'll always be on the safe side.
                                         
                                         If someone thinks he's rude as shit, I don't give a shit.
                                         
                                         I'm like, well, I told him not to speak to any grown-ups,
                                         
                                         so he's not speaking to anyone.
                                         
    
                                         Breaks his leg.
                                         
                                         Ambulance man.
                                         
                                         Fuck off, man.
                                         
                                         Stranger danger.
                                         
                                         Where are you taking us, though?
                                         
                                         No, nah, no.
                                         
                                         Eva, bless him, this little kid.
                                         
                                         Like a kid, I was like, Robin, that's our reet.
                                         
    
                                         He asked us to go and follow him and play with him.
                                         
                                         Round this off, Blake, that's fine.
                                         
                                         Jeez.
                                         
                                         Takes everything very literal though, like you.
                                         
                                         He does, yeah, he's exactly the same as me.
                                         
                                         Sorry about that.
                                         
                                         He's five.
                                         
                                         Sorry about that.
                                         
    
                                         He's operating on a higher level than me to be fair, but yeah.
                                         
                                         He does know how to pronounce thesaurus, though,
                                         
                                         so he has got that on you.
                                         
                                         I'll be asking him.
                                         
                                         Now and then, something will happen in the news,
                                         
                                         and all of our listeners, dear listeners out there,

                                         You know, like when Boris Johnson stole our,
                                         
    
                                         quite blatantly stole our catchphrase questions from the public,
                                         
                                         everyone got in touch.
                                         
                                         Now, this week, someone messaged us on Twitter,
                                         
                                         and it just said that Paul Scholes sucking his daughter's toes
                                         
                                         should be on your podcast.
                                         
                                         Now, I'm not a huge football fan,
                                         
                                         but obviously back in the day I was kind of a follower,
                                         
                                         so I know exactly who Paul Scholes is.
                                         
    
                                         He played for Man is Manchester Man United
                                         
                                         and England ace
                                         
                                         midfielder
                                         
                                         I replied
                                         
                                         my exact reply
                                         
                                         on Twitter was
                                         
                                         what
                                         
                                         brackets
                                         
    
                                         and I can't stress this enough
                                         
                                         the actual fuck
                                         
                                         I don't know if they replied
                                         
                                         because I didn't see the reply
                                         
                                         but I then
                                         
                                         researched it myself
                                         
                                         so there is a video
                                         
                                         of Paul Scholes
                                         
    
                                         biting his daughter's toenails for her.
                                         
                                         Which I can understand why people thought
                                         
                                         they'd want to hear our opinion on this.
                                         
                                         Each to their own.
                                         
                                         Do you know what?
                                         
                                         It's his daughter, it's in his own house.
                                         
                                         It's tricky, right?
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
    
                                         Do you know what?
                                         
                                         It's a bit gross, okay?
                                         
                                         Biting any toenails,
                                         
                                         biting your own toenails
                                         
                                         if you're that flexible is gross.
                                         
                                         Biting your fingernails
                                         
                                         is pretty gross
                                         
                                         yeah
                                         
    
                                         but right
                                         
                                         we're looking at this

                                         into a panic
                                         
                                         I don't like it
                                         
                                         yeah but it's because
                                         
    
                                         you don't like being late for stuff.
                                         
                                         You're really weird.
                                         
                                         You like to be weirdly early for stuff.
                                         
                                         But also, I was speaking to Carl about this the other day,
                                         
                                         Carl Hutchinson.
                                         
                                         Have we talked about the fact that once,
                                         
                                         when we were leaving the house,
                                         
                                         when we only just had Robin,
                                         
    
                                         so life wasn't even as hectic as it is,
                                         
                                         we were leaving the house once,
                                         
                                         and I said, I need to go to the toilet.
                                         
                                         And you went, oh, can you just go later?
                                         
                                         And I had to hold a shit in all day,
                                         
                                         because you couldn't be asked for me to go to the toilet.
                                         
                                         Was it a shit, was it?
                                         
                                         One of the worst days of my life.
                                         
    
                                         I was out of here to go for a shit.
                                         
                                         You were like,
                                         
                                         oh God, you have to.
                                         
                                         And I'm like,
                                         
                                         that's kind of the way
                                         
                                         the body works.

                                         when I got home.
                                         
                                         Oh, Christ.

                                         Because I wouldn't do that normally.

                                         I must have mentioned it when it happened in the past
                                         
                                         or when we were doing the podcast at the time.
                                         
                                         But I remember it because Carl was talking about it the other day.
                                         
                                         Oh, so Carl knows about it?
                                         
                                         The whole world knows about it now.
                                         
                                         I've told them all.
                                         
                                         But yeah.

                                         Yeah. Because Carl's got a baby now, so he's them all. But yeah. This has never happened. Yeah.
                                         
                                         Because Carl's got a baby now,
                                         
                                         so he's experiencing...
                                         
                                         Well, we must have been late,
                                         
                                         really late for something.

                                         no
                                         
                                         what
                                         
                                         like I'm not
                                         
                                         why barrel straight in
                                         
                                         because I'm hungry
                                         
    
                                         because I want to wait
                                         
                                         45 minutes
                                         
                                         I want to wait 45 minutes while you do a frigging photo shoot with it, man.
                                         
                                         You're a pig.
                                         
                                         Anyone else would have realised it was hot.
                                         
                                         You burn your mouth on food all the time.
                                         
                                         So I'm sorry, your beef isn't with me.
                                         
                                         Your beef is with yourself.
                                         
    
                                         That's why I'm angry, because it's kind of with me as well.
                                         
                                         Sort it out.
                                         
                                         It's not my fault that it wasn't.
                                         
                                         You could have mixed it round.
                                         
                                         Take your time.

                                         and the bit with the hot food on

                                         hi Rosie and Chris
                                         
                                         I've been listening
                                         
                                         to episode 138
                                         
    
                                         when Chris told
                                         
                                         the story of
                                         
                                         getting into a
                                         
                                         stranger's car
                                         
                                         to order a
                                         
                                         McDonald's drive
                                         
                                         through following
                                         
                                         an awards night
                                         
    
                                         and I felt
                                         
                                         compelled to tell you both that at the age of 41,
                                         
                                         I have never eaten a Big Mac before.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         And no, I'm not a vegetarian.
                                         
                                         I was for around five years of my life, but no more.
                                         
                                         This is also despite liking all of the individual components of a Big Mac.
                                         
                                         It's not because it has anything in it I wouldn't enjoy.
                                         
    
                                         It's just never appealed to me.
                                         
                                         Is this my mum? That doesn't make any sense. That is your mum.
                                         
                                         Is this my mum, Rowan? That makes no sense at all.
                                         
                                         I'm now so proud never to have eaten a Big Mac
                                         
                                         before. Proud? That is my plan
                                         
                                         in life to never have one.
                                         
                                         Okay, well, I'm going to track you down via your email

                                         and I'll go to prison, but it'll be worth it.

                                         A death or a divorce.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but you don't...
                                         
                                         People die in your life.
                                         
                                         You don't then just get to the stage
                                         
                                         where you go,
                                         
                                         well, this one person, now that's died, I'll get their name on us. No, you usually don't, people die in your life. You don't then just get to the stage where you go, oh, well, this one person now that's died,
                                         
                                         I'll get their name on us.
                                         
                                         No, you usually do.
                                         
    
                                         If you're a bit older,
                                         
                                         that's usually the reason.
                                         
                                         You've gone your whole life
                                         
                                         without a tattoo, right?
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And you get one
                                         
                                         out of nowhere.
                                         
                                         It's usually because
                                         
    
                                         someone's died
                                         
                                         or you're having
                                         
                                         a bit of a breakdown.
                                         
                                         Yeah, midlife crisis
                                         
                                         is when people get them.
                                         
                                         Oh, what will I get?
                                         
                                         I always find that
                                         
                                         such a strange sentence
                                         
    
                                         when people go
                                         
                                         i'm gonna get a tattoo but i don't know what to get you go i think you should hold off then
                                         
                                         that's that's do you know i mean like oh i'm gonna get something to eat but i don't know i want you
                                         
                                         might not be hungry yet then like you might not get a tattoo yet it's it's weird like it's a big
                                         
                                         decision that's why i've never got one before because i'm so indecisive i just think i'll get
                                         
                                         it and i'll change the line when i left yeah And all it would take was for one person to go, oh,
                                         
                                         and you go, oh, shit.
                                         
                                         Yeah, no, you're right.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, no chance. No chance.
                                         
                                         Hi, Rosie and Chris.
                                         
                                         I had to get in touch after listening to episode
                                         
                                         138, where Rosie
                                         
                                         said she had stopped swimming when she
                                         
                                         started her period. Oh, okay, yeah.
                                         
                                         Can I just say a shout out to so many blokes on Twitter
                                         
                                         who went, yeah, we thought Jaws as well.
                                         
    
                                         We're also stupid men.
                                         
                                         Oh, really?
                                         
                                         Yeah, so many tweets I got saying,
                                         
                                         I'm also a stupid man
                                         
                                         because I immediately pictured Jaws as well.
                                         
                                         I just know,
                                         
                                         I know what my mind's like
                                         
                                         and I know that a lot of stupid men
                                         
    
                                         are as stupid as me.
                                         
                                         Great.
                                         
                                         I can't wait to sit down with our lads
                                         
                                         and just tell them all about periods.
                                         
                                         They're going to be the best husbands ever.

                                         They're going to know everything. Discharge.
                                         
                                         Periods. Please be. Boobs.
                                         
                                         Not even out of the room. Can I be
                                         
                                         out of the country when this happens, please?
                                         
                                         Can I be in a different time zone? I know you're doing it
                                         
                                         together. No. I'm going to have a flip chart.
                                         
                                         No chance. I'm going to have pictures. No chance.
                                         
                                         The lot. I'll be gone. The lot. No chance.
                                         
    
                                         I had
                                         
                                         a right May for my first ever period.
                                         
                                         Right, okay.
                                         
                                         I was 15 and with my friend at her dad's house during the summer holidays.
                                         
                                         Oh no.
                                         
                                         He had planned a full itinerary for us during our stay and on this particular day was swimming.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         So you can imagine my horror when I woke up that morning
                                         
    
                                         to find I'd started my first ever period.
                                         
                                         Oh, no older woman there,
                                         
                                         just at the dad's house.
                                         
                                         Just the dad's house.
                                         
                                         That is a nightmare.
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
                                         I was too scared to back out
                                         
                                         because I didn't want to have to explain
                                         
    
                                         to my friend's dad
                                         
                                         why I didn't want to go swimming.
                                         
                                         Oh, she could have just said she wasn't well.
                                         
                                         Well, you don't think of that, I don't know.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         And here's the fun part.
                                         
                                         Putting a tampon in for the first time,
                                         
                                         because as you said, Rosie, you can't swim with a pad,
                                         
    
                                         so I didn't know how high a tampon had to be put in.
                                         
                                         Oh, crikey.
                                         
                                         So bless my young, naive little heart,
                                         
                                         I put it literally just inside.
                                         
                                         Oh, no.
                                         
                                         Sorry to anyone who has experienced this horrible feeling
                                         
                                         and is now getting traumatising flashbacks of that feeling.
                                         
                                         I, Chris, you don't know this, right?
                                         
    
                                         But there is no other horrific feeling in the world
                                         
                                         than a half-put-in tampon.
                                         
                                         It is torture.
                                         
                                         Look at what you've faced with that for.
                                         
                                         I've got no frame of reference.
                                         
                                         It's absolute torture.
                                         
                                         It's horrible.
                                         
                                         It's horrible.
                                         
    
                                         It's not in properly
                                         
                                         and it's kind of,
                                         
                                         sometimes if you go to the toilet,
                                         
                                         so you can put one in fresh
                                         
                                         and you go to the toilet
                                         
                                         and you think,
                                         
                                         I don't want to have to change it.
                                         
                                         But the wee will sometimes
                                         
    
                                         make the tampon a bit bigger
                                         
                                         and it'll soak up
                                         
                                         and it'll half come out
                                         
                                         and you're kind of like,
                                         
                                         this is so uncomfortable.
                                         
                                         So you have to change it.
                                         
                                         Is it as uncomfortable
                                         
                                         as this conversation?
                                         
    
                                         Or is it more?
                                         
                                         Maybe.

                                         I think she's a bit bitter about that.
                                         
                                         A bit angry, yeah.
                                         
                                         Anyway, thank goodness the teacher took me inside onto a said small chair
                                         
                                         because I think she possibly saved me from the most humiliating moment of my life
                                         
                                         from all the other mothers on the school run.
                                         
                                         I was asked what I'd done over the weekend
                                         
                                         and what my stepdaughter had been doing
                                         
                                         with a very concerned look on her face.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         I was perplexed.
                                         
                                         We'd literally had the most lazy weekend.
                                         
                                         We'd spent all weekend relaxing and watching films.
                                         
                                         Although I had to nip into town, Nottingham,
                                         
                                         at one point to take some clothes back on the Sunday,
                                         
                                         I explained this and said whilst I'd taken some clothes back,
                                         
                                         my stepdaughter and her dad
                                         
    
                                         had gone for some lunch together.
                                         
                                         The nursery nurse then sat down
                                         
                                         and after a very long pause and huff,
                                         
                                         asked me why my stepdaughter
                                         
                                         had been telling all the staff
                                         
                                         and classmates that she'd been to
                                         
                                         the Pussy Club with Daddy.
                                         
                                         And that Daddy
                                         
    
                                         had now become a member
                                         
                                         of the Pussy Club. The Pussy Club? Like a strip club? What?
                                         
                                         The pussy club?
                                         
                                         Like a strip club?
                                         
                                         Is that what he took her for dinner?
                                         
                                         It says in brackets.
                                         
                                         I mean, the kid could be psychic, as it turns out her dad couldn't keep his dick in his pants for shit.
                                         
                                         But on with the story, okay? Wow.
                                         
    
                                         I was in shock.
                                         
                                         As you could possibly guess, the pussy club.
                                         
                                         Then it dawned on me.
                                         
                                         When her dad had taken her for lunch,
                                         
                                         he'd taken her to the new exciting cafe in town,

                                         the first word of the pussy club is you don't complain about hairs in your tea at the pussy club. The pussy club is full of cats. The first rule of the pussy club is
                                         
                                         you don't complain about hairs in your tea at the pussy club.
                                         
                                         And the second rule of the pussy club is
                                         
                                         don't keep your dick in your pants.
                                         
                                         No, the thing is, you know that I'm not a massive cat lover.
                                         
                                         I don't mind them.
                                         
                                         I just don't want one personally.
                                         
                                         I would rather go to the strip club.
                                         
    
                                         I'd rather have my dinner at the real pussy club
                                         
                                         than the kitty cat cafe
                                         
                                         do you rather have a human pubic hair in your cup of tea
                                         
                                         than a cat hair
                                         
                                         why you gotta bring the hairs into it
                                         
                                         I don't think the strip has a cat hair

                                         Hi, Rosie and Chris.
                                         
                                         I am a newly qualified midwife working in Surrey.
                                         
                                         Myself and my best friend, a fellow midwife,
                                         
                                         were reminiscing about our stories from work and thought you would appreciate this one.
                                         
                                         One day I was working on a busy postnatal ward and couldn't find our team of doctors.
                                         
                                         I asked another midwife where they were and was met with a surprising response.
                                         
    
                                         I was informed the doctors had rushed to A&E to see a woman in a lot of pain. To my horror,
                                         
                                         I was told how a squirrel
                                         
                                         had run up the bottom of her flare trousers
                                         
                                         and attached itself to her clitoris.
                                         
                                         Sorry. Sorry.
                                         
                                         The delay was due to the wait for the vet to come out
                                         
                                         and shoot the squirrel.
                                         
                                         Fuck off. There's no way this is true.
                                         
    
                                         There is no...
                                         
                                         Most men can't find the clitoris in the bedroom.
                                         
                                         You're telling me the squirrel found one on the fly.
                                         
                                         Heff the squirrel.
                                         
                                         Who's shooting?
                                         
                                         Who's shooting a squirrel?
                                         
                                         Just pull it off.
                                         
                                         All right, so...
                                         
    
                                         At this point, a crowd of staff had gathered in shock,
                                         
                                         including a rather pale-looking paediatrician. It wasn't until a crowd of staff had gathered in shock, including a rather pale-looking pediatrician.
                                         
                                         It wasn't until a couple of hours afterwards
                                         
                                         and a confusing conversation with said team of doctors
                                         
                                         I realised this was a joke.
                                         
                                         There we go.
                                         
                                         As I'm sure my colleagues will agree,
                                         
                                         working for the NHS makes you develop a dark sense of humour.
                                         
    
                                         Therefore, we're not easily surprised.
                                         
                                         However, the legend of the squirrel and the clitoris remains alive
                                         
                                         and continues to shock our new midwives and doctors each year.
                                         
                                         Someone's coming out to shoot the squirrel.
                                         
                                         So that must be what they do, though.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         So this is the interesting part.
                                         
                                         So if you are a new midwife or doctor or nurse or whatever
                                         
    
                                         working in that hospital and you can't find the doctors,
                                         
                                         they're like, oh, a squirrel's come in and bitten off the clitoris. There's probably a different one in that hospital and you can't find the doctors they're like oh a squirrel's come in
                                         
                                         and bitten off the clitoris
                                         
                                         there's probably a different one
                                         
                                         in each hospital
                                         
                                         do you think
                                         
                                         yeah there's probably
                                         
                                         a different bullshit story
                                         
    
                                         that they're saying
                                         
                                         yeah
                                         
                                         love that
                                         
                                         you know what
                                         
                                         in a job like that
                                         
                                         you've got to keep your spirits high
                                         
                                         and stuff like that
                                         
                                         that's great
                                         
    
                                         am I slightly gutted
                                         
                                         that that wasn't a true story
                                         
                                         I am
                                         
                                         yes
                                         
                                         actually I'm more disappointed
                                         
                                         than I am
                                         
                                         I'm really irritated actually
                                         
                                         do you not think it could happen
                                         
    
                                         no I don't think so
                                         
                                         it would happen
                                         
                                         in a film wouldn't it
                                         
                                         yeah it would happen

                                         I was just about to say
                                         
                                         it's got Ben Stiller
                                         
                                         written all over it
