The Luke and Pete Show - Pete bought a second reel-to-reel player

Episode Date: November 11, 2021

Heartbreak on today’s Luke and Pete Show; apparently the traditional full English breakfast is a dying art. We mourn that and also hear how Pete bought a new reel-to-reel player to find out what was on the tape on his old, broken reel-to-reel player. The result was, err... disappointing.Stasi Dad’s son also got back in touch to assure you his dad “is not a Stasi man”.Not a Stasi man? Let us know: [e-mail] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's time for some Luke and Pete action. It is Thursday. I do hope you are keeping well. We got stories about dads who may or may not be in the Stasi. And we've got Mr. Luke Moore. I'm sure this week. How are you doing, man? I forgot about that.

Yeah, I'm all right. What's going on? Lil Starzy Dad. Luke, I've been on Facebook Marketplace, my favourite place in the whole entire world. How are you still on Facebook, man? How about how you do it? It's the only reason why I'm still on Facebook,

for Facebook Marketplace. There's so much shit for sale, and most of it is overpriced. People are trying to sell old Spectrum Plus 2 Kemston joysticks for 30 quid. Who's buying that? You. Obviously you.

I'm looking at it and getting upset about how expensive it is. There is a woman who's trying to hawk a homemade, I think, figurine of Ludo from Labyrinth.

I'm into that. And she's bashed it down from 120 quid to 110. Now it's at 70 quid, I think. Every week she has to do it down. Get it fresh, will you? It looks good, but it's also very homemade as well. So that's interesting.

But if you are looking for that, just go to the Facebook marketplace and change your postcode to a Leon C postcode and it'll probably pop up. Go on, carry on. Well, I've had, luke in my possession uh a a reel-to-reel uh magnetic tape player uh and i've had it in my possession since i think it's about 12 12 years 13 years something like that got it a car boot when i was still in god i don't know where i was

orping i think and uh i I've had it in my possession. And there's always been this little reel of tape. There's always been this reel of tape that's spooled around it. And I've always sort of wondered, bearing in mind it was a recorder and a player of sound, this reel-to-reel player, big reel-to-reel player, really heavy thing. I've always wondered what's on that tape because there's been this mysterious tape in my possession.

Oh, so you got the tape with the player? Yeah. I don't have, I didn't have the capacity to play this tape. So I've just got, had this mystery tape in my possession. Sounds like a new fucking horror movie. Well, yeah. And so on Facebook marketplace I saw

a working or certainly semi-working reel-to-reel player which means I could hear what's on my mystery cassette

cassettes and so I drove around this book's house picked up this because driving is definitely lended my

bric-a-brac skills an extra dimension. You're absolutely off the fucking leash now. Because I am able to carry this myself. You've got to bury it in the graveyard and go pick it up later. This reel-to-reel player. And so I'd set it down, turned it on,

and it's got some problems, but it works. It plays wherever you want to be played. Took this mystery reel off the player, and it was the best of the police. Oh! Roxanne! Roxanne! It was just the best of the fucking police.

Who's doing that? You had to listen to all of it to know. Did you just track this thing online? No, I just, well, I mean, it was just a concatenation of different police tracks. I'm like...

I think you're supposed to call him Sting now. Sting. You have to call him Sting or them Sting. Yeah. Fucking fuming. That's another Alan Partridge

reference, isn't it? The police are now known as Sting. I've got a... I'll tell you the story about when I went out for a countryside walk with my ex-girlfriend and her family years ago.

No. And this is down in Wiltshire. And we were walking along... By the way, I'm really disappointed in your payoff there. Yeah. You must have been gutted. Yeah, I was expecting something spookier. I've not checked side two,

but one side was just all the best of the police. Right. It just seems like a waste of what quite a cool like piece of kit a waste of kit yeah anyway so we're in wiltshire this is probably back in about 2008 or something and um we're walking along this countryside path because you know there's like a bill it's a real bone of contention in um in the country and actually people international listeners will i think will find this interesting so if you are listening to this and you are based in the uk you've got a public footpath story which i understand sounds really boring

it isn't get it in get in touch because people get into proper disputes about public footpaths in the uk yes particularly in england obviously scotland they've got right to roam in england i'm not sure about the situation in wales but in northern ireland but in england like public footpaths are just like sacrosanct so if you've got you buy, spend millions of pounds on a big house or a big country estate and it's got a public footpath through it. Yeah. As far as I know, tough, tough, tough rocks. Unlucky dark.

There was one round the corner from where we lived in. People are going to be walking through your shit all the time. Well, where we lived in Berkhamstead. I mean, it's fine if you've got big grounds and stuff, but this was the one down the other road in Berkhamstead was this hilarious little, hilarious little kind of situation where the house and they had like a little mini garden next to it yeah yeah um and it's separated just by this weird little kind of public right-of-way path in the middle so you'd just be

walking effectively really close to the house really um through this guy's garden uh but before you they get to their garden really it was like the front door, their car, you could walk through it, and then the other side of that was their garden. They tended beautifully as well. It was like a public garden they'd created. I don't think they were particularly annoyed about it, but it was a little bit weird.

It's a weird old thing. But anyway, so we were doing this walk, and if there's a public footpath, basically you can just do it. And my ex-girlfriend's parents were like proper ramblers, right? They were like, we're doing this, and this i don't care we have to climb over this fence it shouldn't be there anyway whatever yeah anyway we saw some walkers coming the other way and they're like oh don't walk down this path and we're like why not so because it's um it belongs

to sting and uh he's pretty uh he's pretty like kind of hot on it and the parents were like well it's a public footpath we should better walk walk through it. Yeah, I know. But Sting gets the arsehole about it and stuff. And we looked over the rolling hills. Yeah. And the house, which was pointed out to be Sting's house. Bear in mind, I'm just taking these two people

I've never met before's word for it. So it might not be true. But it probably is. The house was absolutely gigantic. And the footpath we were on was probably about a mile away. It's like, how can you... You've got to that stage of your life

where you really can get annoyed about someone walking across a path a mile away from your actual house. It'd be like me complaining about someone walking in Crystal Palace from where I am in West Norwood. So I don't know how we got onto this. Oh, it was a sting, that's right.

So I'm not sure what stings like these days, but I've heard some rumours is all I'm saying. That he's very, very forthright about his rights when it comes to right of way. Speaking of... I mean, listen, one thing stings certainly would not be doing, I think we can all agree,

is eating a full English breakfast. Would you agree with that? Yeah, I can't imagine him chowing down. If he did, though, he'd take fucking ages with it. Tantric breakfast. He would claim to be satisfied from the breakfast for like eight hours. But what kind of rock and roll figure do you think would still eat a full English? Lemmy, if he's still with us.

He's dead. He's literally dead. Yeah. Ozzy Osbourne. Yeah, good. Shannon, I've got beans on my top. Good answer. So apparently, the reason I'm saying that is because I read a news story

last week that there's a guy in Bristol saying that partly due to the pandemic, but actually because of a prevalence, in his words, of health-conscious people constantly asking for organic halloumi salads, he's now closing down his cafe because he thinks no one eats full English breakfast anymore. And what he's done is he's closed it and he's opened up a Mediterranean restaurant

in its place. Is it Brexit to feel a bit sad about this? What do you mean? Is it Brexit to feel sad about this? I'd love to feel English to be there as an option. Admittedly, I hardly ever eat them, but I'm the worst of both worlds here, really. It's like the thing with the cinema.

On Monday, we'll talk about the cinema, right? It's great having a cinema five minutes from my door, independent and everything. I never want it to be busy because I'm selfish, but I want it to be busy enough that it stays open. It's the same with a full English breakfast. I don't ever really want to eat one. I probably want to eat one once every six months,

but I want them to still be available. And it would be sad if they were no longer there i just always think that they've kind of leaned too hard into the bacon uh compliment on on the breakfast because you reckon i reckon you get enough bacon i i just don't like bacon anymore i don't know what happened to me um it has to be extra streaky for me um oh yeah i'm a streaky man these days i'm not a big i'm just not a big bacon guy these days and the sausage is the real gem and I always think they scrimp on the sausages

and cheap out on the sausages. And overcook them? Yeah, overcook them and use bad sausages. By cooking them? It's just, and the fried egg holds no allure for me these days either.

I'm a scrambled man. Yeah, it's a shame and beans in a ramekin, I think that killed the fucking thing, to be honest. That's, I mean, to be honest, that's a big problem in the community, ramekin, I think that killed the fucking thing, to be honest. I mean, to be honest, that's a big problem in the community, I think.

I hate to get all bad text on a local radio station, but the ramekin, the beans in a ramekin, it's good because it does give me the option of throwing them away because I don't necessarily like beans all that much. But once you start dicking about with adding extra vessels to your breakfast, it's game over.

I've heard it's a problem in the scene. The ramekin thing. Because I think people get, people there's always going to be people who want to mess up, mess with the process. Mess with the classics. I'll blame you Heston Blumenthal. And most of them will be ex-goo pods. So like there'll be a bit of chocolate

in the bottom. It's the only place you can get ramekins. They've got the absolute monopoly on it I blame you Heston Blumenthal oh what's this a ramekin of baked beans but it's actually fucking red sugar puffs fuck off so you're saying that you don't actually like any of the elements of a cooked breakfast

no I like sausages and I like mushrooms and if there's bubble and squeak going I'll go for that but yeah it's... Toast? Say again? Toast? No, fried bread, eggy bread maybe.

It's just an excuse for me to consume Tabasco, which so many of my meals have become these days. Yeah. Would you rather have a ramekin full of Tabasco? Yeah. Oh, I'd love... I'd like to just dip my tongue in it. Just thinking about it.

Whenever you mention, whenever anyone mentions that particular condiment, I start, like, my mouth just gets so moist. Can I just say? My salivatory glands just go, yes, please. As embarrassing as this is, I'm happy to admit it on this show because we're among friends.

If I walk down the crisp aisle in the supermarket, I get a... I start salivating. Yeah, it's just... Oh, God. Like, anything with lime in I start salivating. Yeah, it's just... Oh, God. Like, anything with lime in it, anything with Tabasco in it. I'm starting to... Oh.

My mouth just came. Oh, Pete. Don't put it like that. Don't put it like that. That's the worst thing you've said since you sent me that message about Bruce Dickinson the other day. What was the... Bruce Dickinson's on tour, isn't he?

He's doing the question and answer thing. Yeah, spoken word tour. I asked if you'd get me tickets, and you replied with some obscenities. And I was disappointed in you. But anyway, this is a very long build-up, and I'm sure our listeners have got plenty of things to say about fried breakfast,

but a very long build-up to saying that the problem that I think the full English cooked breakfast faces in 2021 is probably best surmised in the area in which I live right I live in a working class area traditionally West Norwood it's been gentrified obviously I'm part of that problem I get that we don't need to go into that now if I go to the cafe down the road of which there are many if I go to the in down the road, of which there are many, if I go in the first one and I ask for a full English, they're going to give me,

it's going to be about fucking 16 quid probably. They're going to give me organic reared specialist sausages, right? They're going to give me some kind of sourdough bread. They're going to give me tomatoes on the vine, lightly grilled, right? They're going to give me beans on the vine lightly grilled right right they're going to give me beans and a ramekin as you've already identified they're going to give me some kind of really thick unpronounceable back bacon and you're probably not going to get any mushrooms and the

egg will be i don't know racist the egg will be like confit or something racist yeah so i'm saying that people have messed with the formula and I don't think the young people know where they stand with it. They think it's unhealthy, we're not into unhealthy food and this is kind of a bit weird and it's kind of a bit caught between two stools and we don't know where we are. What it should be doing is going down the McDonald's angle,

the traditional McDonald's angle. It's a burger and fries, enjoy it once every so often, it's going to be fine. But even McDonald's have gone down the health thing, haven't they? Do you want carrot crunchies with that? No. Do you want to... What do you know about carrots, Ronald?

Do you want to round this... When you're on the little machine, the big iPad thing, do you want to round this up to a quid to the nearest pound? I always do that. And donate it to the charity. It's like... A lot of companies these days, and they do it in certain garages as well.

When you're buying petrol, they sort of go, do you want to add 25 pence for charity? Now, it doesn't matter what charity it is. Amazon do it a lot. Do companies do this to offset their tax? Because it just seems quite ubiquitous these days. If somebody knows why they have these initiatives, because I'm sorry, I don't believe that it is completely altruistic. I cannot believe that it's completely just doing the right thing.

It seems to me that there must be an ulterior motive. There must be some tax breaks for companies that give to charity. If not, and someone can tell me about this, I'll be astonished and astounded and very happy that that's the case. But I just always presume

that I'm being used somehow, to be quite frank. And I think with the petrol thing, I think you're probably within your rights to say, look, I'm 40 now. I've only just started driving. Leave me out of it for a bit.

Leave me out of it. I've missed out 20 years of not doing this. Do a bit for a charity. I'll do the charity bit later. Yeah. Can I ask you a question? Because this doesn't happen that often, but it has happened this week.

On the running order for today's show, you've put the two words that I don't understand. I'd like to know what they are. Lobster notching. Oh, yes. Lobster notching. Oh, yes. Lobster notching. So I discovered that some lobsters get well and truly fucking notched. What does that mean? So lobster fishermen have a legal requirement to,

if they discover a lobster flobbing around like a lobby lobster, they just pull them up from from from the net or whatever the the cages rather um if they pick it up if they pick one up and they've and the underside is absolutely when when lobsters have uh babies have little eggies um they uh they they basically there's like millions of fucking eggs underneath the the belly of the lobster um it's that it looks like uh they've been invaded by some kind of horrible moss or something. But if you see that as a lobster fisherman, you're supposed to turn it the other way around

and you take a very specific notching tool and to the tail of the lobster, you give it a little triangular notch in the tail and you throw it back to basically say, this one has been, this one's carrying a load of babies. This one goes back. Don't pull this one up because it's been notched, basically. But how would you know until you pull it up? I think you pull it up.

And if you see, I think it's more not that they've got babies at the time. It's that they are a female that is old enough, that's rich maturity. And obviously they're making more babies than the male equivalent of the lobster. I think that's right. So if you pull up a lobster that doesn't have loads of babies underneath it, but it's got a notch that basically says it has the capacity to make babies, so throw it back so it can go and make its babies. So if you spot it with the eggs, you've got to notch

it and then throw it back. And I didn't know that that was going on. I just assumed that fishermen just lift them all up. Yum, yum, yum. This sounds like the start of some kind of criminal defence statement. What have you done? I've done nothing. What do you mean? I notched a dog. I notched a dog, Luke. I notched a little dog. I don done nothing. What do you mean? I notched a dog. I notched a dog, Luke.

I notched a little dog. I don't know. What website did you visit to discover that? Because that is actually very interesting. I honestly can't remember. I mean, to be honest, if anyone's really following, most of my stuff is from boingboing.com, a website I've been reading since about the year 1998.

When the internet was good. When the internet was good. It was back when I was working in marketing for a London housing quango for the government. And I remember it was proper like the Office US where a new IT man

comes and he basically pulled off what the most popular websites are that people are viewing on the internet. You know when people are actually scared about what people are fucking looking at on the internet? And in my case, it was well valid. But Boing Boing was very much at the top of the list of websites that had been accessed every single day at the local government.

And I was expecting a bollocking because I'm the only one who's looking at Boing Boing. And if that is the most visited site, I am just one person visiting the same website over and over again uh you know in every every day of my working existence and i was sort of like i'm gonna get fired soon because someone's gonna notice that i am accessing boing buying twice an hour when did when did the when did the internet go to shit in your opinion there Is Boing Boing now covered, now owned by a big kind of company? Oh, I don't know, actually. I think they might still be independent, but they're still beholden to, you know,

those weird adverts you get at the bottom of certain websites. You see them quite a lot on news sites. And they're these kind of old school, miracle pill, aloe vera jelly head wound look at how old Michelle Ryan is now kind of like you know this mum of two in London. Who is Michelle Ryan? She was in

EastEnders and I don't know why. Oh Cindy for EastEnders. Yeah they keep on She's been targeted it's unfair. I just don't know why the algorithm thinks that I really need to see what Michelle Ryan looks like now. It's bizarre. Yeah.

Weird. But the internet's now shit. The internet's now shit. And we're part of it. Great. On that note, let's have a break so we can serve up some adverts to earn some money because that's what the internet is now. And then when we come back back we'll put a bit more

in the internet credibility bank by talking people through their battery brands ramekins aren't cheap hi i'm flo lloyd hughes i'm rachel o'sullivan and i'm chloe morgan join us every week on our brand new show up front on football ramble presents we'll get stuck into the biggest stories of women's football every t from the latest in the WSL. Gareth Taylor said, well, actually, we were playing 3-4-3 and we moved to 4-4-3-3. If you look at any of the footage,

if you look at the way the players played in that first half, there were four players playing at the back. That sort of comment speaks of a manager who doesn't quite know what they're doing. To how the Lionesses are shaping up ahead of a manager who doesn't quite know what they're doing. To how the Lionesses are shaping up ahead of a home Euros next summer. For me, I would pick Leah Williamson.

I would just go for it now. For a younger age captain, you've got some big tournaments coming up. I think a lot of players think she's got a really great mentality, gets on with a lot of people. For me, she's a born leader, and I think she will be England captain at some point. And what it's really like being a player in women's football today. From my own experiences of being in a situation like that,

I mean, you know, when we got promoted when I was with Spurs, that was phenomenal. I was, you know, first choice keeper, you know, then you go into the WSL for our first season and all I wanted to do was get WSL experience. Join us every Tuesday for Upfront.

Football Ramble Presents is a Stack production. We're back with a look. Pete Shaw, hello to you, you and you in the trousers. Yes, Jimmy Cunningham's got in touch with his favourite battery brand. Am I searching for them while you're reading them?

Because we haven't worked this out. Oh, sorry, mate. Have you got the email box open? I'll load it up now, mate. Hang on. All right, then. Well, every single Thursday, you guys... It's all sweet beans, baby.

Don't worry. Through the week, through the weekend, you guys pull batteries out of cheap Chinese electronics. And if you find a battery that we've never heard of before, you get a big blue tick next to your name in our minds. Jimmy Cunningham's got in touch. Okay, give me the brand, baby. Yeah, here they are, fellas. Attached to some XZ Energy batteries that came with my bathroom scale. A lot of people opening scales this week.

Is this a new player well hang on a minute are we are we able to um i've got a couple of issues here all right okay are we going for so they are there's a photo of them and they are they look like double a so that's fine in terms of the profile and the size of them jimmy cunningham sent these on november 4th yeah right he also sent them in on October 12th under the name James Cunningham which seems like a very big coincidence

if it's not the same person yeah but can we give it to Jimmy Cunningham because technically speaking James Cunningham has already sent them in oh that's a good point

do you reckon he's been hoisted by his own petard I don't think we can let him in I think that's that's fraud it's a hanging chad it's a yeah I think he's fraud. It's a hanging chad.

Yeah. I think he's on telekart. He's not in. No. Unlucky, Jimmy. Or should we call you James? Sorry, James. James or Jim. Unbelievable. Ben Roberts bought a metronome off Amazon the other day and it came with these batteries inside. Great purchase. Titled Rabbit Conthor.

C-O-N-T-H-O. Rabbit Conthor. I've never heard them before. That's mad. And hope you haven't either. I don't know what. Rabbit, the Duracell bunny, all that business. Conthor.

What is that? Constant thought? A constant, I don't know. Yeah, I think it's probably a different language, Pete. It's probably a different language. I love the fact that Ben has done this. They are new players, so congratulations, Ben. A new player has now entered the game.

I like the fact that he sent a photo of the battery sat on his piano. I like the fact that he's bought a metronome. All in all, great work. 10 out of 10. Fantastic stuff. Oh, that is lovely. Lovely stuff. We've also got Rene Etten.

Rene's come in with Voltax. Hope I can finally contribute to the top quality content. This was in a box in an abandoned storage room at work inside an old flexible inspection mirror, unused, maybe from the 70s. Voltax. Well, the photo's fucking amazing. Yeah,, made from the 70s. Voltax. Well, the photo is fucking amazing. Yeah.

It's from Munich in Germany. Yeah, Voltax are a new player. Congratulations to you, Rene. That is a new player entered the game, according to the email inbox. Voltax are in as are Rabbit Contho. I genuinely, and I mean this sincerely, had no idea how deep this rabbit confo hole went

when we started these batteries. We are still four years on finding brand new players. It's incredible, really. It really is. And thank you very much for getting in touch, René. If you've got a battery that you've just found in a toy, a weapon, an old electric fire to give that little spark for the gas,

do get in touch. It does need to be one of the major four or five food groups when it comes to batteries. a weapon, uh, an old electric fire to, to give that little spark for the gas, uh, do get in touch. It does need to be one of the major four or five food groups when it comes to batteries. It needs to be your high street. We're not going for like little lithium, uh, watch or, or hearing aid batteries. We want full fat,

you know, over, over a couple of volts kind of, uh, kind of batteries. If that's all right with you. Yeah. I don't want to see our two zero three two.

No, we don't want to see it. And it goes in your communal garden kitchen scale and has no branding on it whatsoever no thank you very much not interested in that as pete says i would i don't know how pete feels we need to do a moratorium on this probably yeah i would go up to from one end of the scale the triple a to the other end of the scale up to and including probably a D. Right. Something like that. The square one. Whatever the square one's called. Outside of that, I'm not interested.

Yeah, indeed. Yes, so get in touch. Hello at linkpitch.com. We got an email. Can I say hello to... What's that name? A German Londoner in Singapore. Luke, the German Londoner in Singapore is back.

And the email is written in a style that's even more an inch in the first time round. Yeah, can I just say, you German Londoner in Singapore, you don't know how much of this we went through last week for your nonsense. Because Pete Donaldson is sometimes tired. He doesn't always pick up on the stuff, do you, Pete? No, I mean, you got done by a joke about Marty McFly, so I don't know why you're giving it the big licks, sunshine.

You're only as good as your last email, though. Hello again. I thought that my dad's adventures would be a wholesome recollection of a life well lived. I reread my email now and realised how much he does sound like a starzy man. My dad's a Stasi man. I'm a Heine man. Yeah.

He's given it the big licks, but it does take a turn, as the first one did. But I assure you, he wasn't a Stasi man. Unlike my uncles. I have the files to prove it, I promise. But you are forgiven to think that, considering the Stasi's 300,000 official and unofficial, in inverted commas, employees.

If you hadn't sent us the previous email, then strap in for these two nuggets. Oh God. Imagine you are a volunteer worker that sorts out those closed donation bins. What would you do if you were to find a donated SS parade uniform, complete with armband, insignia and an iron cross?

After the passing of a particularly unsavoury family acquaintance, his wife found out about his past. He stored everything away, including his old booklets and paperwork. Looked like he was living up in Eastern Europe. What a monster. The uniform would now be worth close to 100,000k. Yeah, I mean, 100,000 euros, not 100,000k, Peaks.

That's something completely different. Right, OK, yeah. And I think also presumably getting involved with that kind of stuff would probably be a crime anyway. I think it's a grey area around the collectability of that type of stuff is very, very difficult. There's a shop, there's a bric-a-brac shop on

the high street of Berkhamstead that saw, they were selling some definite Nazi memorabilia that definitely should... I mean, I wouldn't put up my Instagram for the shop, to be honest, with a little winky face. And you know when you just know that there's...

You know, you sort of go, this is the tip of the iceberg here. If that's what you're showing off about, you should be in trouble, I think, in many ways. Should have called the police, really. You know, I think if you... And also, I mean, to our German Londoner in Singapore, if this is your idea of clearing this up,

then I think that's problematic in itself. I definitely know for a fact that certain countries in Europe ban the sale and the collection, I think, but definitely the sale of Nazi mobile. I think that's everywhere, isn't it? Because David Boyd kept getting caught crossing borders with Nazi

stuff, didn't he? Wasn't there a thing, and we can say what we everywhere, isn't he? Because David Boy kept getting caught crossing borders with Nazi stuff, didn't he? And I'm pretty, isn't there, wasn't there a thing, and we can say what we like about the man, because he's sadly passed. I'm pretty sure Lemmy

from Moteg collected a lot of that kind of stuff as well. Well, just look at their bloody logo. Yeah, he always insisted he was just a collector and he was interested

in the history and stuff. I mean, that's what people always say. I don't know if, the detail of that. But in certain parts of Europe, for sure, he can talk about it being worth €100,000 or whatever,

but in massive parts of Europe, it's illegal. So, I mean, thanks very much, German, London and Singapore. If we've proved nothing else, we've proven that we will read anyone's email. Yeah, yeah. But that is not the best way of clearing up the situation. Let's move on to more wholesome subjects, Pete, because Rich Brown has got in touch, which sounds like a colour.

Yes. As he said in his sign-off. Rich Brown, not the colour. Hi, Pete and Luke. Hope you're both well. I'm just wondering if you guys have ever used Fimo. Is it Fimo? Fimo. No, I'd never heard of this, to be honest. Fimo. Is it Fimo? Fimo.

Now, I'd never heard of this, to be honest. Fimo, F-I-M-O. F-I-M-O, the old modeling clay that you put in ovens to set. Now, I just thought that was clay. I looked it up earlier, and I think it's like some kind of, I think it might be like a brand name. Right. It's like modeling clay, a particular type of clay.

Anyway, Rich says, I remember back in the day making dice and mushrooms. I started making stuff out of it again with my son. It's a pain in the ass, really fiddly, and a lot of it ends up on your hair and your clothes. Have you ever had any experience with it? Now, I don't think I have, but we definitely had to do clay models in art class at school,

and I was abysmally bad at it and the reason i bring that up is because i think probably to like annoy me because my family are a bunch of piss takers normally the clay pig which was supposed to be a piggy bank that i made in like year 10 which is so bad you can't even get a coin in the back of the pig my parents still have on their shelf at home in the living room so anyone can see it but that's the closest I've ever been to modelling anything with clay Pete I suspect you've modelled quite a bit

because you're very arty I've not done a lot of I think I had a plate that was on the wall of my kitchen and that looked like a piece of shit my friend from school was like a he was a big he was a big clay firing man. He had his own

kiln and stuff and he did some lovely stuff but he sort of gave it up. He was a really talented bloke. Never mind. Never mind. Would you buy any of his stuff to help him keep them on his feet? No. I've got no business having owning clay. On that note, Pete, on that note of clay, if people have got a clay story, send it in.
