Bloody people shaking hands, bloody licking each other's tongues and that. It's too much.
                                         
                                         That bloke might be back in.
                                         
                                         I told you didn't I, but when my dad worked in the pit
                                         
                                         and if they got anything in the shipyard,
                                         
                                         sorry,
                                         
                                         and if they got something in their eye,
                                         
                                         they went to some guy's little hut
                                         
                                         and he licked it out of their eye
                                         
    
                                         with the back of his tongue.
                                         
                                         Have you ever mentioned this on here?
                                         
                                         I think I might have.
                                         
                                         You must have.
                                         
                                         I've mentioned it in the intro now
                                         
                                         because my head's all over the fucking place.
                                         
                                         You told me that story once
                                         
                                         and I was horrified.
                                         
    
                                         So my dad worked at the shipyards
                                         
                                         and whenever they got
                                         
                                         something in their eye
                                         
                                         they would go to see a guy
                                         
                                         his name was Geordie
                                         
                                         or Jackie or something
                                         
                                         and they'd go and see him
                                         
                                         and he'd be in the workshop
                                         
    
                                         and he'd be like
                                         
                                         I've got something in my eye
                                         
                                         and he would hold their eye open
                                         
                                         and he would lick their eyeball
                                         
                                         with the underside
                                         
                                         of his tongue though
                                         
                                         because the underside
                                         
                                         is like softer.
                                         
    
                                         Smoother.
                                         
                                         I'm sorry but that
                                         
                                         what is your job?
                                         
                                         Oh I lick all the lads eyeballs.
                                         
                                         I'll be honest with you
                                         
                                         I think this was before
                                         
                                         health and safety
                                         
                                         I think it might have been
                                         
    
                                         how old's your dad
                                         
                                         370
                                         
                                         oh my word
                                         
                                         but what I'm saying is
                                         
                                         I think the reason
                                         
                                         we are so high
                                         
                                         is because I think
                                         
                                         he's back
                                         
    
                                         I think he's back
                                         
                                         on the scene
                                         
                                         is he back licking
                                         
                                         yeah yeah
                                         
                                         right
                                         
                                         I think he also
                                         
                                         with the rough side
                                         
                                         of his tongue

                                         But we'd just like to be honest with you guys.
                                         
    
                                         And we'd like to let you know when we've had... I went back to fucking bed today.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I know you did.
                                         
                                         We were supposed to record the podcast
                                         
                                         and I went back to bed.
                                         
                                         I texted my producer, I said,
                                         
                                         is it okay if I send you the files tonight?
                                         
                                         Went to bed for an hour and a half during the day.
                                         
                                         I think you needed it.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Didn't make me feel any better though.
                                         
                                         No, it never does annoy me.
                                         
                                         I looked at the clock, I woke up,
                                         
                                         I was like, time to get up, a new day, a new me.
                                         
                                         And I came downstairs and I was like,
                                         
                                         I want to go back to bed.
                                         
                                         Fucking sick.
                                         
    
                                         But I'm having a wine.
                                         
                                         But listen, yeah, you have your wine, you selfish little shit.
                                         
                                         You're selfish.
                                         
                                         I miss you.
                                         
                                         I want you to drink with us.
                                         
                                         It's upsetting.
                                         
                                         And we are going to take you away from all of this bullshit for an hour or so.
                                         
                                         Come on.
                                         
    
                                         I've got loads of good stories.
                                         
                                         Play the soul cleansing.
                                         
                                         Happy, happy jingle.
                                         
                                         We had a fight about the jingle.
                                         
                                         Jingle.
                                         
                                         We couldn't settle on a jingle, jingle.
                                         
                                         So this is the jingle, jingle. We hope you like the jingle, jingle.

                                         Hello and welcome back to this week's episode of Shack, Mary and a Night.
                                         
                                         Shack, Mary and a Night.
                                         
                                         Hope you're all well.
                                         
                                         We've moaned enough, so let's just crack on.
                                         
                                         We have.
                                         
                                         My hands are hurting.
                                         
                                         Why?
                                         
    
                                         Because I'm a manual labourer now.
                                         
                                         Manual labourer.
                                         
                                         Oh God, you put one wardrobe together.
                                         
                                         I beg your pardon.
                                         
                                         It was a corner wardrobe, which is essentially a wardrobe and a half,
                                         
                                         then it was two other wardrobes on top of that.
                                         
                                         That's three and a half wardrobes.
                                         
                                         Is that what's wrong with you?
                                         
    
                                         Is that why you're so exhausted?
                                         
                                         Because you've actually done a little bit of manual labour.
                                         
                                         And last night, I cut my hand with a screwdriver,
                                         
                                         and I hurt both my thumbnails.
                                         
                                         I've hurt both my thumbnails.
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
                                         Do you know that?
                                         
                                         Well, just wait until my beef section.
                                         
    
                                         You're going to enjoy that.
                                         
                                         They were both bleeding,
                                         
                                         and then I put drawers on Robin's cupboard,
                                         
                                         and then I moved all my clothes from one room to the other room.
                                         
                                         Now, guys, guys, me and Rosie share a dressing room now

                                         to see any of that
                                         
                                         in the front room

                                         or sometimes in the orangery
                                         
    
                                         it's just the best time ever

                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Getting ready with your mate in your room.
                                         
                                         I still do it now at 33.
                                         
    
                                         Well, weirdly.

                                         Oh, I'm 34?

                                         I've referred to myself as 33 today.
                                         
                                         That's really sad.

                                         in UFC years
                                         
                                         but literally
                                         
                                         honestly
                                         
                                         they're just I'm like I'd be out on my bike and he'd be like,
                                         
                                         is your bike?
                                         
                                         And I'd be like, there's my bike.
                                         
                                         Because there's nothing I can do.
                                         
                                         Are you not looking forward to getting older?
                                         
    
                                         It doesn't really bother us.
                                         
                                         I know I'm joking for the podcast now, but I've got friends who are like,
                                         
                                         oh, I'm a year older.
                                         
                                         And I just, I don't really care.
                                         
                                         I quite like being a bit older.
                                         
                                         Yeah?
                                         
                                         You get away with more stuff, I think.
                                         
                                         What do you mean?
                                         
    
                                         What, like shitting your pants in that?
                                         
                                         No, not that far.
                                         
                                         Being accidentally racist at Christmas.
                                         
                                         Terrible stuff like that.
                                         
                                         Oh, she's 34.

                                         it's not an excuse to say 74,
                                         
                                         but 34 is, no, no

                                         Maybe I only know this because I'm not a native English speaker.
                                         
                                         Ah, okay.

                                         didn't expect this though okay okay so when i
                                         
                                         first started listening to your podcast you had already announced the pregnancy so i assumed it
                                         
                                         was some weird habit of rosie's to keep reminding everyone she is pregnant this is this is possibly
                                         
                                         to get more sympathy or whatever who's this but then i noticed ch Chris does it too. So I'm just a bit confused because that made me think,
                                         
                                         so hang on, when you tell people you're pregnant,
                                         
                                         are you meant to just tell them you're pregnant
                                         
                                         and then never mention it again?
                                         
                                         I'd be up for that.
                                         
    
                                         For all you do.
                                         
                                         I'd 100% be up for that.
                                         
                                         This person, is this my soulmate?
                                         
                                         Is this my Wayne Linnigan?
                                         
                                         May well be.
                                         
                                         I found my Wayne.
                                         
                                         So I was going to talk just then about how today I was watching something.
                                         
                                         I was watching a video on YouTube about a man making noodles.
                                         
    
                                         And he lifted a pot and the pot was really heavy.
                                         
                                         And honestly, felt a little bit jealous.
                                         
                                         Because at the minute, I'm really missing carrying heavy things.
                                         
                                         Because you're not allowed when you're pregnant.
                                         
                                         You're missing carrying heavy things.
                                         
                                         Said no one ever, apart from possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime when he might have been injured. You're missing carrying heavy things. Said no one ever
                                         
                                         apart from possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger
                                         
                                         in his prime
                                         
    
                                         when he might have been injured.
                                         
                                         Well, honestly,
                                         
                                         I'm not being funny.
                                         
                                         I'm missing carrying heavy things.
                                         
                                         I think it's because
                                         
                                         of everything that's going on
                                         
                                         at the minute.
                                         
                                         There's a lot of restrictions and stuff.
                                         
    
                                         And I'm just getting told
                                         
                                         I can't do a lot of things right now.
                                         
                                         I'm the same.
                                         
                                         And lifting heavy things
                                         
                                         is really,

                                         But we say we,
                                         
                                         but it doesn't mean we as in...
                                         
                                         We say we.
                                         
                                         We.

                                         I find it hard to explain it
                                         
                                         when I get quizzed on it.
                                         
                                         When someone's like us and we and we
                                         
                                         and I'm like

                                         you're going to have to wait
                                         
                                         until your catcher's seen it
                                         
    
                                         in a sentence
                                         
                                         and then I'll explain it
                                         
                                         and then I'll be like
                                         
                                         explain it

                                         maybe it's not as popular
                                         
                                         as what you think
                                         
                                         it might be
                                         
                                         but I mean

                                         there's nothing different
                                         
                                         I can't believe

                                         I got tagged in a post

                                         that cheered you up a bit
                                         
                                         that must make you feel a bit better
                                         
                                         a little bit
                                         
    
                                         I might get one
                                         
                                         just for the crack
                                         
                                         you love dominoes
                                         
                                         I might get a half margarita and half margarita
                                         
                                         with extra cheese and see if I can see which side's which.
                                         
                                         Well, there you go. Why don't you...
                                         
                                         It might just bump up like a curb.
                                         
                                         Why don't you really try and push your luck
                                         
    
                                         and
                                         
                                         get margarita, but just get me a slice
                                         
                                         of bolognese.
                                         
                                         I don't think they do bolognese. What?
                                         
                                         Oh, God. They don't
                                         
                                         do bolognese? No. Pizza? No. They don't do bolognese? No.
                                         
                                         Pizza?
                                         
                                         No, they don't.
                                         
    
                                         Domino's?
                                         
                                         No, stop saying words.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         I think they do like ground beef.
                                         
                                         They'll do like ground beef and stuff.
                                         
                                         Oh, my God.
                                         
                                         That's exactly what bolognese is.
                                         
                                         No, bolognese is the sauce and everything.
                                         
    
                                         I bet you'll have to go to Kills for that if you want.
                                         
                                         Ground beef?
                                         
                                         Ground beef on a pizza?
                                         
                                         Can you imagine?
                                         
                                         I might actually, you know what it is?
                                         
                                         I might actually phone them up and go,
                                         
                                         look, now that they do half and half again,

                                         a slice of pepperoni,

                                         in the Nutella

                                         on his finger.
                                         
                                         That's good.

                                         I'd sanitise his hands before hands.
                                         
                                         Great.
                                         
                                         And then we went down an aisle
                                         
                                         and for some reason
                                         
                                         there was just so many people
                                         
                                         in the aisle
                                         
                                         and he just held his finger out
                                         
    
                                         and he just shouted
                                         
                                         at the top of his voice, Daddy, i'm eating poo and i just i was i went really really

                                         Cut to the next morning when he
                                         
                                         realised he had lost his wallet.
                                         
                                         Good. Serves him right. Must have lost
                                         
                                         it at the rugby club he thought. Brilliant.
                                         
    
                                         He phoned them and asked if there was any
                                         
                                         lost property handed in from the previous night
                                         
                                         but they said no.
                                         
                                         We hadn't been anywhere else as we live
                                         
                                         walking distance to the venue
                                         
                                         so the only other option was losing it on the way home.
                                         
                                         Remembering his toilet stop in the random garden
                                         
                                         he concluded it must have fallen out of his pocket there.
                                         
    
                                         So we went back to the house to see if it was anywhere lying around.
                                         
                                         We arrived at the garden and peeked over the wall but the wallet was nowhere
                                         
                                         to be seen. My boyfriend was also confused as the shit he had done there the previous night,
                                         
                                         he assured me it was a whopper, had disappeared.
                                         
                                         Maybe he'd got the wrong house I thought but he was adamant it was the correct one.
                                         
                                         At that moment, the woman
                                         
                                         who lived at the house came outside
                                         
                                         and asked if she could help.
                                         
    
                                         My boyfriend
                                         
                                         explained that he had lost his wallet and was
                                         
                                         looking around to find it. He asked
                                         
                                         her if she had found one in her garden
                                         
                                         that morning and she said
                                         
                                         Mysteries, mysteries, mysteries.
                                         
                                         What do you think she said?
                                         
                                         This is the bit where you need to guess
                                         
    
                                         This is the new format
                                         
                                         Okay
                                         
                                         We'll see how long it lasts
                                         
                                         Okay
                                         
                                         Well I'll tell you how long it's going to last
                                         
                                         Not very long
                                         
                                         Because if the answer is no
                                         
                                         It's the shittest email ever
                                         
    
                                         The answer is yes
                                         
                                         So what did she say?
                                         
                                         Yeah she found it
                                         
                                         Okay
                                         
                                         It was in a big pile of shite
                                         
                                         It was in some dog shit
                                         
                                         Is that what you're going for?
                                         
                                         That's my guess
                                         
    
                                         It was in some dog shit
                                         
                                         Yeah something like that
                                         
                                         Okay
                                         
                                         She said Was it you who shat on me tortoise i apologize i apologize wholeheartedly
                                         
                                         you could have gave me a year and i would not have come up with was it you who shat on me tortoise
                                         
                                         turned out she had a pet tortoise that roamed around the garden
                                         
                                         and my boyfriend had unknowingly taken a shit on its back before it waddled away.
                                         
                                         Hence the vanishing poo.
                                         
    
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         Needless to say, he sheepishly made his excuses and left,
                                         
                                         cancelling all his cards immediately and dying of shame.
                                         
                                         Dying of shame only when he found out that he shat on the tortoise
                                         
                                         and the mummy come out.
                                         
                                         Not dying of shame the night that he dropped trow
                                         
                                         and did it over the back of the bloody wall.
                                         
                                         Good grief.
                                         
    
                                         Shameful, shameful.
                                         
                                         That was...
                                         
                                         Three.
                                         
                                         This is Robin's mysteries, mysteries, mysteries.
                                         
                                         So there you go.
                                         
                                         Can I just say that?
                                         
                                         Poor tortoise, man.
                                         
                                         That tortoise walking from the door back to the,
                                         
    
                                         from the wall, sorry, back to the door

                                         My beef with you this week is...
                                         
                                         You hinted at this earlier on didn't you

                                         so recently
                                         
                                         and I don't know why
                                         
                                         I don't know if it's
                                         
                                         if you've done it always
                                         
                                         but it's just annoying
                                         
    
                                         us at the minute
                                         
                                         because we are spending
                                         
                                         every bastard

                                         day
                                         
                                         together
                                         
                                         sick of you
                                         
                                         recently
                                         
    
                                         for some reason
                                         
                                         whether you're eating
                                         
                                         or you were doing
                                         
                                         the DIY yesterday
                                         
                                         you cut your finger
                                         
                                         you started licking your fingers loads.
                                         
                                         It's horrible.
                                         
                                         Have you noticed it?
                                         
    
                                         I'm just trying to get South Tyneside up to that number one spot.
                                         
                                         But just all by yourself.
                                         
                                         Just all by myself.
                                         
                                         To infect yourself.
                                         
                                         No, you lick your fingers all the time at the minute
                                         
                                         and you don't do it in a nice way.
                                         
                                         You do it like in a...
                                         
                                         So you put something in the microwave the other day
                                         
    
                                         and you got it out and you had a bit of food
                                         
                                         and you were going...
                                         
                                         Like an old man. Like an old bloke like licking your finger like anyone else would
                                         
                                         just kind of go and suck it off and not really make much of a noise but you're like
                                         
                                         and when you cut your finger yesterday doing them wardrobes and you are sucking the blood out i
                                         
                                         could have i had to tell you to stop it didn't't I? You nearly left, didn't you? Uh-huh. It was awful. I cut, dear listener, right?
                                         
                                         I cut.
                                         
                                         Our darling husband here is,
                                         
    
                                         our hard-working husband is doing DIY,
                                         
                                         putting up wardrobes because she's nesting
                                         
                                         and she wants all kinds done at the drop of a fucking hat.
                                         
                                         And I cut under both my thumbnails
                                         
                                         and they were bleeding
                                         
                                         and I was trying to suck the blood off
                                         
                                         so that I wouldn't get it on the white wardrobes
                                         
                                         or the carpet.
                                         
    
                                         And yeah, she's like,
                                         
                                         you're going to have to stop that.
                                         
                                         I'm going to have to leave.

                                         I actually
                                         
                                         because I panicked
                                         
                                         I didn't know what to do
                                         
                                         so I let her in
                                         
                                         I put the telly on for her

                                         I put the telly on
                                         
                                         I'm literally going to pick Rosie up
                                         
                                         from the office
                                         
                                         it's two minutes away
                                         
                                         I'll go and get her
                                         
                                         because I'd walk down
                                         
                                         like a mug
                                         
                                         I totally forgot
                                         
    
                                         the weirdest bit was
                                         
                                         I put the telly on for her
                                         
                                         and CBB was on off her and CBeebies was on
                                         
                                         off Robin
                                         
                                         and I went
                                         
                                         do you know how to use SkyQ
                                         
                                         and she went
                                         
                                         oh I'll be fine
                                         
    
                                         and when I eventually came back
                                         
                                         she was sitting
                                         
                                         watching CBeebies
                                         
                                         because she didn't know
                                         
                                         how to use SkyQ
                                         
                                         or maybe she didn't want
                                         
                                         to touch the remote
                                         
                                         for disinfecting purposes
                                         
    
                                         I don't know
                                         
                                         but I
                                         
                                         so I went down to get you
                                         
                                         I phoned you
                                         
                                         on my way

                                         and I went

                                         And you were like, oh, shit.

                                         I went, no, I've let her in.
                                         
                                         She's just sitting, chilling, watching the telly.
                                         
                                         I'll come and get you.
                                         
                                         I'll come straight up.
                                         
                                         You had the audacity, the absolute barefaced cheek to say to me, where is she?
                                         
    
                                         Front room or back room?
                                         
                                         And I went, back room.
                                         
                                         And you went, oh, but the back room's a mess.
                                         
                                         You cheeky fucking dick.

                                         I couldn't believe it.
                                         
                                         You need to learn a little bit of house etiquette.
                                         
                                         You need to learn a bit of time management

                                         and it told us the day before.
                                         
                                         And naively I thought,
                                         
    
                                         oh, I'll remember that,
                                         
                                         but I didn't remember.
                                         
                                         So I'm sorry Michelle

                                         next time you bring someone
                                         
    
                                         in the house
                                         
                                         who doesn't come regular

                                         who doesn't know
                                         
                                         that we're not pigs
                                         
                                         yeah
                                         
                                         put them in the nice room
                                         
                                         right
                                         
    
                                         sit them in the good room
                                         
                                         I've deliberately got
                                         
                                         a good room
                                         
                                         that never
                                         
                                         nothing ever moves
                                         
                                         nobody goes in there really
                                         
                                         put them in there, really.
                                         
                                         Put them in there. Don't put them in the flipping the cereal stuck to the carpet.
                                         
    
                                         CBeebies is on. There's train tracks
                                         
                                         going up across the floor. Don't
                                         
                                         put them in there. Put them in the good room.
                                         
                                         You've got to put them in there so they think
                                         
                                         these live like pigs. There's nothing to steal.
                                         
                                         That's what you've got to do.
                                         
                                         I hope she didn't say I'd clipped
                                         
                                         Robin's nails on the carpet

                                         and I hadn't moved her yet.

                                         when she got here.
                                         
    
                                         I went through to the front room
                                         
                                         when she got here
                                         
                                         and she was doing

                                         oh god

                                         what do you do with your willy when
                                         
                                         you have a poo does it lay on the toilet seat is it dangling in the bowl does it even touch the
                                         
                                         underneath bit of the toilet seat or the rim of the bowl bit where the water comes out when you
                                         
                                         flush what do you do in public bathrooms i need need to know because I literally lay awake at night thinking about it.
                                         
                                         Who the fuck is this?
                                         
                                         It's someone, I think, who's watched a lot of porn
                                         
                                         and doesn't realise that average Joe's willies are not long enough
                                         
    
                                         to dangle in the water of the bowl.
                                         
                                         Listen, listen, right?
                                         
                                         Yes, it dangles in the water when that toilet's blocked.

                                         Of course it does.
                                         
                                         Who wouldn't?
                                         
                                         Right?

                                         Well, no, because...
                                         
                                         It's quite a gap, that, isn't it?
                                         
                                         Does it lay on the toilet seat?
                                         
                                         So they think that I sit in the...
                                         
                                         It could lay on the toilet seat if you wanted it to.
                                         
                                         Could it?

                                         Not 100%.
                                         
                                         Not 100%.
                                         
                                         We've got a really small toilet seat.
                                         
                                         No, it could.
                                         
                                         But my point is, it could.

                                         I think, from now on.
                                         
                                         I'm sorry.

                                         and added my name to the letter A in front of his parents.
                                         
                                         Go and piss off.

                                         He discussed how the sex went in front of his parents
                                         
                                         and then proceeded to read out the names of girls he had shagged
                                         
                                         and how many of each name he had.

                                         and with several on each letter.

                                         Just remembered a funny story from a few years back that you might enjoy.
                                         
                                         I'd been to the Granger Market.
                                         
                                         Newcastle, yeah.
                                         
                                         That was in Newcastle.
                                         
                                         And bought a large squid from one of the fishmongers to use it as fishing bait.
                                         
    
                                         I already hate where this
                                         
                                         i just i've been i've been affected by this podcast no it's not i've been affected by the
                                         
                                         podcast i don't like he's been in the granger market buying a squid i'm a bit annoyed that
                                         
                                         he's bought a squid to take fishing he's using it as bait yeah yeah i think the squid's quite
                                         
                                         a nice thing i feel like that's a bit of a waste yeah
                                         
                                         you could use maggots
                                         
                                         for bait
                                         
                                         well it might be really good bait
                                         
    
                                         I don't know much about fishing
                                         
                                         I just

                                         on the podcast
                                         
                                         I don't know

                                         we used to love fishing and I just hated it.
                                         
                                         Boring.
                                         
                                         Made us go with him.
                                         
                                         It was freezing cold, and he put up a tent for us,
                                         
                                         and I was just raging the whole time.
                                         
                                         Sorry.
                                         
    
                                         Sorry.
                                         
                                         This is amazing.
                                         
                                         We haven't spoken about this on here.
                                         
                                         I don't even know if I know this.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Can I just say, right?
                                         
                                         Can I just say?
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
    
                                         I've got the short end of the fucking stick here.
                                         
                                         I'm too good to you.
                                         
                                         What do you mean?
                                         
                                         Because this is the same boyfriend
                                         
                                         who used to go at the fucking driving range
                                         
                                         and sit and watch him hit golf balls.
                                         
                                         Just sit there,
                                         
                                         like a fucking,
                                         
    
                                         like a little weird little gargoyle
                                         
                                         perched watching him.
                                         
                                         This was back before when I had children and that,
                                         
                                         and I, you know,
                                         
                                         I had a lot of time.
                                         
                                         Nah, I'm too good to you.
                                         
                                         Honestly,
                                         
                                         you've struck gold here.
                                         
    
                                         He used to take you
                                         
                                         to the bloody driving range
                                         
                                         where,
                                         
                                         where we're going tonight, love,
                                         
                                         and we're going out for a meal.
                                         
                                         We're going to the driving range, love.
                                         
                                         You'll sit and watch me hit balls.
                                         
                                         He wasn't from Yorkshire
                                         
    
                                         but it just sounds better.
                                         
                                         And then now,
                                         
                                         now I hear
                                         
                                         he's gone fishing
                                         
                                         and he's just put you up
                                         
                                         a little tent for you to sit in.
                                         
                                         I read three magazines.
                                         
                                         Like a dog.
                                         
    
                                         And he's took you some magazines in a little tent.
                                         
                                         It was awful.
                                         
                                         Where was it?
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         It was one of them,
                                         
                                         it was like a reservoir where you've got to pay it to go.
                                         
                                         Fucking hell.
                                         
                                         But then you've got to put the fish back in.
                                         
    
                                         I was raging.
                                         
                                         I was like, this is pointless.
                                         
                                         What a fucking...
                                         
                                         Can't even eat the fish.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but I mean, when I knew when it came to the. What a fucking... Can't even eat the fish. Wow. Yeah, but I mean,
                                         
                                         when I knew when it came to the end of the relationship...
                                         
                                         We need more information here.
                                         
    
                                         Well, I knew it was at the end of the relationship
                                         
                                         when he was going to the golf course
                                         
                                         and asked us to walk around with him
                                         
                                         and I said, no, I can't do this anymore.
                                         
                                         And that's when we split up.
                                         
                                         So you'd rather sit on the bench at the driving range
                                         
                                         than walk around the golf course?
                                         
                                         That was one, Chris, that was one time.

                                         In the corner of my eye, we saw a woman and a dog walking in our direction.
                                         
                                         The woman shouted,
                                         
                                         Don't let her meet anything!
                                         
                                         But by this point, it was already too late.
                                         
                                         The dog had picked up the huge squid I'd bought the day before
                                         
                                         and started hacking it to bits.
                                         
                                         Shut up. I said that in the beginning.

                                         The woman started shouting,

                                         And he didn't mean to do it at all.

                                         So off I go excitedly thinking,
                                         
                                         I wonder what he's got me.
                                         
                                         I get in my Christmas PJs,
                                         
    
                                         do all the pre-bed pampering
                                         
                                         and remember that I've left
                                         
                                         my phone charger downstairs. Oh, no.
                                         
                                         Oh God.
                                         
                                         Oh no.
                                         
                                         I can't.
                                         
                                         However, I carry on to the kitchen.
                                         
                                         The noises continue, so I press my ear against the wall and think,
                                         
    
                                         what on earth are they watching?
                                         
                                         It sounds like porn.
                                         
                                         Oh, for fuck's sake, on Christmas Eve, what's wrong with everyone?
                                         
                                         I remember that I've left my drink in the lounge,
                                         
                                         so think I'll use that as an excuse to pop back in
                                         
                                         and have a look at what they are watching.
                                         
                                         They can easily hide any gifts.
                                         
                                         This is...
                                         
    
                                         As I open the door to my horror,
                                         
                                         I see my fiancée
                                         
                                         licking out my mum.
                                         
                                         No way on earth.
                                         
                                         That no. No? on earth. That.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         No?
                                         
                                         She's repeated it.
                                         
    
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         My fiancé.
                                         
                                         Fallatio and her mum.
                                         
                                         Doing what?
                                         
                                         Her mum.
                                         
                                         I scream.
                                         
                                         I mean, what else was I supposed to do?
                                         
                                         That's her.
                                         
    
                                         My dad comes rushing down and I tell him all.
                                         
                                         He tells them both to get out of the house.
                                         
                                         I haven't spoken to either of them since.
                                         
                                         It's been five years. And Christmas has never been the same again. Jesus Christ.
                                         
                                         Jesus.
                                         
                                         Yeah, they don't do a card for that.
                                         
                                         And you know what it is, Rosie?
                                         
                                         You know what's the saddest thing about all this?
                                         
    
                                         What?
                                         
                                         Santa's supposed to get the pie.
                                         
                                         We are...
                                         
                                         Can I just say, we're taking the piss,
                                         
                                         but we are so sorry.
                                         
                                         How horrible that is for you.
                                         
                                         That is awful.
                                         
                                         But there's a happy ending.
                                         
    
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Sort of.
                                         
                                         Obviously, a lot has happened since, and I'm now happily married with two kids.
                                         
                                         Oh, I'm so glad.
                                         
                                         So, listen.
                                         
                                         Yep.
                                         
                                         What's that remind you of?
                                         
                                         Fuck him.
                                         
    
                                         Fuck him.
                                         
                                         Fuck her.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         Intense, that, isn't it?
                                         
                                         Oh, my God.
                                         
                                         Thought you might like that.
                                         
                                         A bit gossipy, that one, isn't it?
                                         
    
                                         Jesus.
                                         
                                         A bit like reading one of them magazines full of all the...
                                         
                                         Yeah, the Reader's Wife stories in porn magazines.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Love it.
                                         
                                         Good grief.
                                         
                                         Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah.
                                         
                                         Rosie.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Rosie.
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
                                         I've got a question for you, actually.
                                         
                                         What?
                                         
                                         This is so weird and random.
                                         
                                         I was watching you being framed with Robin the other night.
                                         
    
                                         Mm-hmm.
                                         
                                         And there's a lot of...
                                         
                                         There was a sports special.
                                         
                                         There's a lot of people falling over hurdles.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         At school, did you do real hurdles,
                                         
                                         or did you do pretend hurdles?
                                         
                                         I don't think we did hurdles at all.
                                         
    
                                         Because my school didn't have hurdles,
                                         
                                         but we just set up a 100-metre track,
                                         
                                         and every sort of 10 metres,
                                         
                                         the PE teacher just shouted,
                                         
                                         jump, and you had to jump.
                                         
                                         And that's not a lie.
                                         
                                         And I wish it was jump and that's not a lie and i wish it was and it's not like so so you would run from the bottom of the field it would be two years you would run
                                         
                                         and like and then you just go jump and you both have to jump and then a few more steps then you
                                         
    
                                         go jump and then a few more steps and you go jump and you go at the end and you'd be like oh like
                                         
                                         you wouldn't have made over them you weren't jumping high wow but he was so he wins that's interesting yeah just just felt like
                                         
                                         you need to know that no i didn't know that and i don't i don't remember doing hurdles at all
                                         
                                         no so well i don't remember i never did hurdles i did a um i wasn't very good at it no i was
                                         
                                         terrible at running at school yeah like shocking Like, shocking. I remember doing, like, cross-country.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But it was basically...
                                         
                                         A jog.
                                         
    
                                         It was a jog around the bottom of the field.
                                         
                                         Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         And what used to happen was there was teachers, like,
                                         
                                         spread out making sure you were jogging.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         But then when you were right at the other end of the field,
                                         
                                         they couldn't see you.
                                         
                                         Me and my friends used to just walk,
                                         
    
                                         but lift our knees up really high
                                         
                                         to look like we were running.
                                         
                                         Hilarious.
                                         
                                         So we just walked, but we flipped them up.
                                         
                                         So, I mean, they must have realised
                                         
                                         that now thinking back,
                                         
                                         that's a terrible thing
                                         
                                         because you would just know.
                                         
    
                                         But we did that for years.
                                         
                                         I remember once I went on,
                                         
                                         I did like a cross-country run.
                                         
                                         Like, I think it was through the school,
                                         
                                         but it was like on a Saturday somewhere,
                                         
                                         this big, like massive cross-country run with loads of runners like like the shields harriers who were
                                         
                                         like running team and that they took part and loads of people took part and then you talk about
                                         
                                         the great north run it wasn't a great north run and it wasn't it wasn't a junior north run it was
                                         
    
                                         just some big run okay and i remember i did um i sort of it was like three times around this like
                                         
                                         massive field kind of thing um and i thought the second time round was the third one.
                                         
                                         And we got to like, what was the finish line?
                                         
                                         And I like fucking pegged it and like overtook like two people.
                                         
                                         And I was like, yeah!
                                         
                                         And there was one lap left.
                                         
                                         I was like, I just felt I was fucked.
                                         
                                         You absolute mug.

                                         got you
                                         
                                         what are you laughing at
                                         
                                         just let's call him Steve
                                         
                                         it's just
                                         
                                         any name
                                         
                                         pick a name
                                         
                                         let's call him Steve do Any name. Pick a name.
                                         
                                         Let's call him Steve.
                                         
    
                                         Do you know what's funny?
                                         
                                         The whole story is not actually that embarrassing for Steve.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         So the fact that she's changed his name.
                                         
                                         I wish I once only wanted to use the power of deduction and find out.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Do you know what I mean?
                                         
                                         Fair enough. I quite fancied Steve when we were travelling.
                                         
    
                                         And whilst he was definitely not boyfriend material,
                                         
                                         he was still quite cool and good looking.
                                         
                                         Okay, okay.
                                         
                                         Anyway, a day and evening of drinking and laughter later and we convinced Steve to miss
                                         
                                         his last train back to Brussels and stay with us. We said us girls could top and tail in
                                         
                                         a bunk in our hostel and he could have the other bunk as there was no rooms left.
                                         
                                         Hey, how would the other half live?
                                         
                                         I know.
                                         
    
                                         Oh, hey.
                                         
                                         Wheel top and tail.
                                         
                                         Hey, miss your train.
                                         
                                         Wheel top and tail in a bunk bed in a hostel
                                         
                                         because all the other beds are taken so it'll be fucking even
                                         
                                         and you can have the other secondhand used last night bunk for yourself.
                                         
                                         It's not inviting in my eyes.
                                         
                                         That's not.
                                         
    
                                         I would go, I'll get me train.
                                         
                                         I'd sleep in the train station. 100%. i'll just stand there i'll just stand in the train station
                                         
                                         till the morning the next train really no you wouldn't i probably would i'd probably just stand
                                         
                                         there or sit in the corner well instead of sleeping in a bunk yeah in a hostel in a hostel
                                         
                                         million percent yeah i just walk around the stand in the corner of a train station.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I don't believe that for a second.
                                         
                                         I think you would regret that.
                                         
    
                                         I think you'd be stood in the corner of that train station thinking,
                                         
                                         I could be in a bed right now.
                                         
                                         Well, this is pre-lockdown, so there wouldn't be a 10 o'clock,
                                         
                                         you know, a 10 o'clock, whatever.
                                         
                                         So you'd go to a nightclub or whatever.
                                         
                                         You could go to McDonald's or something like that.
                                         
                                         Oh, you are explaining.
                                         
                                         And then you could literally go.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                         But then you'd go and stand, just stand in stand in the train station yeah but then you'd get that
                                         
                                         really do you know when you're so tired that you know when you're traveling and you're so tired
                                         
                                         that you want to just die that's what you'd be feeling like in that train station yeah and you
                                         
                                         know what's worse than death a bunk bed in a hostel right well fair enough so we stumbled in
                                         
                                         fairly pissed into our dorm and the girls in the other bunk
                                         
                                         seemed quite annoyed
                                         
                                         that we'd brought someone back
                                         
    
                                         and we were making noise
                                         
                                         yeah
                                         
                                         sounds like your kind of dorm
                                         
                                         it's
                                         
                                         don't book a bed
                                         
                                         in a room full of beds
                                         
                                         and be surprised
                                         
                                         when someone comes in
                                         
    
                                         and makes some noise
                                         
                                         yeah
                                         
                                         like you haven't
                                         
                                         you're not at the fucking
                                         
                                         ward off Astoria
                                         
                                         people are going to come in.
                                         
                                         See, it's hard for us, though, to understand because it's something that we've never done.
                                         
                                         And I don't think it's because, well, me personally,
                                         
    
                                         by any means, being posh or anything like that,
                                         
                                         just hostel and travelling life, I've never, ever done.
                                         
                                         But I can't ever imagine going to sleep
                                         
                                         next to a stranger in the same room.
                                         
                                         I can't imagine it unless I was in prison. going to sleep next to a stranger in the same room.
                                         
                                         I can't imagine it unless I was in prison.
                                         
                                         Well, your thing at the minute is to just stop me snoring.
                                         
                                         So you'd just be walking around the room all night,
                                         
    
                                         shoving everyone all night, going,
                                         
                                         so you're snoring? Stop snoring. Stop it.
                                         
                                         I would. That's your new thing.
                                         
                                         I would.
                                         
                                         Have you ever heard you snoring, by the way?
                                         
                                         Not your tennis snoring.
                                         
                                         Think of that.
                                         
                                         Why?
                                         
    
                                         Think of what you just asked me.
                                         
                                         Have I ever heard myself snoring?
                                         
                                         Oh, okay.
                                         
                                         Or have you lost your mind?
                                         
                                         Would you like to hear yourself snoring?
                                         
                                         Have you recorded it again?
                                         
                                         Maybe I have.
                                         
                                         Oh, for fuck's sake, man.
                                         
    
                                         Do you want to?
                                         
                                         I kind of live in this house.
                                         
                                         Do you know that?
                                         
                                         You actually want to, though?
                                         
                                         It's like being in a big brother house.
                                         
                                         You've just reminded us of it.
                                         
                                         Come on, then.
                                         
                                         But this is what I have to listen to six or seven times a night,
                                         
    
                                         and this is why I wake you up.
                                         
                                         You're going to get a shock.
                                         
                                         It's awful, Chris.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         This was last night.
                                         
                                         I don't think it's that bad.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Are you ready?
                                         
    
                                         Right, okay.
                                         
                                         You snow as well.
                                         
                                         I don't think I snow like this.
                                         
                                         Okay, go on then.
                                         
                                         Oh, shit.
                                         
                                         Yeah. Okay. Hi, Grand. Yeah.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Grandad Joe.
                                         
    
                                         Your clip.
                                         
                                         Every night, six or seven times, I swear to God.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         Awful.
                                         
                                         And it wakes me up.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         So, there you go.
                                         
                                         Okay, I'll take that.
                                         
    
                                         Right, back to the hostel.
                                         
                                         I told you, you reminded me of that.
                                         
                                         I stand corrected.
                                         
                                         So, they're making a lot of noise.
                                         
                                         The girls are getting pissed off.
                                         
                                         So they started to threaten to go tell the reception
                                         
                                         and get us all kicked out for sneaking someone in.
                                         
                                         Great.
                                         
    
                                         Steve was in the bunk above us and was too drunk to obey orders.
                                         
                                         He would keep leaning over and saying he needed company up there
                                         
                                         as he was going to rush off to get the first train.
                                         
                                         So we had to have one girl up there
                                         
                                         in order for it to not look like
                                         
                                         we had someone there in the morning.
                                         
                                         I mean, I...
                                         
                                         Like a boarding school
                                         
    
                                         to check where you've slept.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         What are you...
                                         
                                         I need some company up here
                                         
                                         is the worst line in the world, by the way.
                                         
                                         And I'm getting an early train in the morning
                                         
                                         so will someone come up here?
                                         
                                         So he's, I mean, yeah.
                                         
    
                                         I mean, he's trying his best.
                                         
                                         He's trying it on.
                                         
                                         He's trying his best.
                                         
                                         I needed no excuse and so he's, I mean, yeah. I mean, he's trying his best. He's trying it on. He's trying his best. I needed no excuse.
                                         
                                         And so I said, I'll go.
                                         
                                         He was clearly wanting a cheeky snog.
                                         
                                         Great.
                                         
                                         So up I went.
                                         
    
                                         And sure enough, his hands crept all over me.
                                         
                                         And we were making out.
                                         
                                         And he kept whispering just how much he liked me.
                                         
                                         He continued and said he had fancied me from the start
                                         
                                         and hadn't it been obvious?
                                         
                                         And I said, well, no,
                                         
                                         I didn't get that vibe from you at all when we were travelling.
                                         
                                         He suddenly goes quiet
                                         
    
                                         and says, Chloe?
                                         
                                         I say, yes.
                                         
                                         Another long silence.
                                         
                                         Oh, shit.
                                         
                                         At this point, I clocked that he thought he had been snogging my friend and immediately got angry and kicked him out of bed.
                                         
                                         Oh, wow.
                                         
                                         Oh, that is fantastic.
                                         
                                         Can you imagine?
                                         
    
                                         Congratulations, Steve.
                                         
                                         You cock-blocked yourself.
                                         
                                         Well, I was thinking about this, though.
                                         
                                         What would you do?
                                         
                                         Would you just keep...
                                         
                                         Like, you would have to go...
                                         
                                         Huh?
                                         
                                         Chloe?
                                         
    
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         Or would you just keep going?
                                         
                                         I mean, I don't know.
                                         
                                         Would it have been rude for him when he was saying
                                         
                                         I need some company up here to specifically say
                                         
                                         which one he wanted? I mean, he really
                                         
                                         should have specified
                                         
                                         which. Hey guys,

                                         Not you, Chloe.

                                         when he was going to miss his train
                                         
                                         he offered you the train ticket
                                         
                                         so you would just fuck off to Brussels
                                         
                                         and leave you with his mate
                                         
                                         poor Chloe
                                         
                                         oh bless her heart
                                         
                                         I'll go
                                         
                                         he could have styled that out to be fair though she could have been like I didn't get that vibe when we were travelling he could have been like Poor Chloe. Oh, bless her heart. I'll go.
                                         
    
                                         He could have started that out, to be fair, though.
                                         
                                         She could have been like, I didn't get that vibe when we were travelling.
                                         
                                         He could have been like, Chloe?
                                         
                                         Mm-hmm.
                                         
                                         Yeah?
                                         
                                         How could you not have got that vibe?
                                         
                                         I thought it was so obvious.
                                         
                                         Now, goodnight.
                                         
    
                                         God, this headache has come on so quickly.
                                         
                                         Are you going to ask your mate if she's got any paracetamol?
                                         
                                         Or will you go somewhere miles away?
                                         
                                         Chloe, do you fancy going and standing in the train station on your own?
                                         
                                         I've heard from a friend it's really good.
                                         
                                         It's the McDonald's on the way, get your sack back.
                                         
                                         Thank you once again for listening to this week's episode of Shag Maridanoid,

                                         I'll tell you what other network it's part of.
                                         
                                         It's part of the bloody cheering Chris Ramsey up network.
                                         
                                         You feel a bit better now. I was honestly really, really down all day.
                                         
                                         Again, I wish I'd done it earlier on,
                                         
                                         because I'm really cheered up now,
                                         
                                         and I'm really happy we've been chatting for a bit,
                                         
                                         and it's been lovely.
