Starting point is 00:00:54 so next week all the madness for me ends and I've just got the radio which is still work but it means I'm back it's my routine work yeah it means from two o'clock till half seven I know I'm in work for the last two weeks it's been jobs before the radio and then the radio so it's London next week London yeah it's been full on but it's been good and we'll die we'll let you know about it all now welcome to another episode I've lost
Starting point is 00:01:24 in translation without further ado vamos Coming up. Proximaimente. I'm in a bit of a pickle here, I said, because the traffic ain't moving. My bowels are. By the time that I open the fridge and I'm going to get something, I'm like... That's because of your height. What?
Starting point is 00:01:41 Gemma's had a shit in my house, I can't have that. So I had to just do this to dry. I have to just waft. Yeah, you could very good be balls. I'm, oh... Because I had a poo bag in my hand when he proposed to me. There's more of me to love, more jelly, more love. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:01:59 So, yeah, this week has been very busy. Well, the last two weeks have been really, really busy. I've been working on a show for Channel 4, which you can watch in the new year. It's out the first week of Jan. I would say, like, the whole November has been, like, manic. It's been manic, but I hate that whole, oh, I'm so busy, because everyone's busy. Everyone's, you know what I mean? But it's been, well, one of the things we got excited about this year was the fact that Gorka's judge on the Spanish.
Starting point is 00:02:29 version of Strictly, which meant it freed up time for him to be at home in the week. But she was great because that means you had done other jobs. Yeah. But having seen each other. We've not seen each other because he's been at home in the week, but I've been working like a maniac back to back with the TV, with the radio, with the podcast, with Gem and Tonic, with parents. It's been full, full on.
Starting point is 00:02:50 And I had possibly one of the worst experiences of my life this week. Like going back to the people, like, going back to the people say, oh, how is it? She's been at home with the kids in Germany. I was like, well, it's like passing ships. The kids are great. Gemma, I don't really see her. I know. I've been getting up in the morning, creeping downstairs,
Starting point is 00:03:09 making my food prep, literally leaving before the kids are up, saying bye to you, filming all day till three, then going to the radio till seven, home at quarter to eight, walk, Benji, just to get some zen time and then being bed at half eight, nine.
Starting point is 00:03:26 And it's been like that for a long time, isn't it? but I was driving to one of the days we were shooting I had to be in South Manchester which from our house is about 50 minutes isn't it so I set off and the satanav said 45 minutes I was like great I'll be there on time all good halfway through the journey the satnav jumped it added an hour on and there was a really bad accident on the motorway which was awful wasn't it
Starting point is 00:03:51 but it added an extra in the end it turned out it took me two hours and 20 minutes to what normally would be a 45 minute journey and I'd had a coffee before I left and because I thought I'd be there in 45 minutes
Starting point is 00:04:09 I had a coffee on route You know what happens I have a coffee early in the morning sometimes Yeah I started to need the Lou basically And number two Or number one And number two
Starting point is 00:04:19 And I said to Gorka What's wrong you dinner I said, do you know what I'm in a bit of a pickle here I said because the traffic ain't moving And I'm, my bowels are. I was like, I really need a toilet. And Mia was joking about it once, you because she was on the call with you.
Starting point is 00:04:33 You were on the school run. What are you going to do, mummy? What are you going to do? I was like, oh, don't worry, I'll make it. I'll be fine. Another hour had passed. And my back was sweating. I was thinking, oh, my gosh, like, what the hell am I supposed to do?
Starting point is 00:04:48 I had a mug in the car. So I was thinking, right, worst case, there's a mug. Then I was thinking, no, that's not possible. And then we were on a housing estate, I was thinking, right, I could knock on someone's door and be like, I'm so, so sorry, this is an emergency. I was like, no, I can't because if they listen to the pod or if they listen to the radio, they recognize me, they're like, Gemma's had a shit in my house, I can't have that. Anyway, I found a petrol station, didn't I? And I said to you, it's a petrol station. I was like, yes, thank you.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Thank you, God. Thank you, petrol station, pulled up, ran in the petrol station. So, oh my gosh, oh my gosh. And it was a single cubicle with the sink in there, changing my. everything. So one cubicle, straight in, sat down, I was like, oh, okay, finally, all's well again. And then I went to wipe. There's no toilet roll. Oh, there's no toilet roll, was there? I just concerned. You just sat down without checking if it was only a roll. I had no choice, Gawker. Was it clean? Well, there was no loo roll. And to add even more mess to the situation,
Starting point is 00:05:53 what time of the month was it there was the other mess as well it was just it was like something at one point I thought I'm being punked I am being punked but I was like no do you know what you got a roll with it literally so I had to stand up
Starting point is 00:06:09 I had to wash myself in a public toilet and then there was no toilet roll so I had to just do this to dry I had to just waft waff myself around thankfully there was soap you could do the handstand in the dryer The silver lining was there was soap
Starting point is 00:06:25 and I was backed up to a dryer don't you worry so all was well but it was just and when I got back in the car I literally I didn't know whether to cry laugh I have a voice note about that
Starting point is 00:06:38 say like how low she felt I said to Gorker I've never felt as low and unhygienic in my life that's like when you're in a Porta Luna you know when you go like I don't know like on a festival or something like that a concert and you have an emergency and you end up on a portal loo,
Starting point is 00:06:54 you have to be like that. It was awful. And then I got to the location and the crew were like, you're okay? And I went, well, I've practically just crap my pants in a service station.
Starting point is 00:07:04 I had to wash myself in the service station. Let me tell you, you had a shitty day. I did have a shitty day. But do you know what I kept thinking, though, driving in? Because I was genuinely on the verge of tears. I was like, do you know what,
Starting point is 00:07:17 there's been a car accident. I wasn't involved. Be grateful. Of all the things to happen in the world, A bit of shit on your cheeks is fine. It's fine, yeah. And I did manage to clean it. Do you clean your fingers?
Starting point is 00:07:28 Yeah, thank God there was soap. But then I genuinely, I felt like saying to the people who worked in the service station, you need to have a backup toilet roll in there. You're a service station for a reason. People are on the road, the busy. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:07:40 They've not just come from a lovely toilet. Stock up on the loo roll. Told my mum, no sympathy at all. She said, well, Gemma, you should have a bag with wet wipes in it. You've got two kids, no excuses. I never go in a publicly without hand sanitizer and wet wipes. Especially where you have a like a history of like having those problems when you're in the car.
Starting point is 00:08:00 You have a history of always needed a wee or a poo when you're driving. I know, I always need one. Always. And it's awful. You tell me though anyone, if you started needing a wee at like three o'clock and you were stuck, by five it's turned into a poo. You can't just need a wee for that long. It over time turns into you needing a poo as well. I'm lucky because I'm a gentleman, so for me it's easier.
Starting point is 00:08:20 but I literally pull my car into the high shoulder and have a way between the doors That's fine for you You know what happens? It's a funny story My mom happened similar yeah What to me? Yeah
Starting point is 00:08:32 And she couldn't hold it We were driving to my grandma's House in Portugal Yeah In the old days There was no A good motorway She was like all like this
Starting point is 00:08:42 She couldn't hold it anymore And my dad have to pull out And my mom had to go in the high shoulder But you know when you have the fence and then you jump and it's a fill. So she jumped and went kind of behind the bushes and not cars, didn't see her, but she didn't check. And when she bent down, it was the Nettles.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Oh, she stung herself. So she stung herself in her part. Oh, bless her. It was hilarious. That's the thing. I don't care. Your age, where you're from, your background at every... Imagine after...
Starting point is 00:09:11 You've always had a near miss. Having an itchy... Ooh. No. From a stinger netzel, that's horrible, eh? Oh, that makes me feel a bit better, though. Yeah, there you go. I'm glad it happened to your mum as well.
Starting point is 00:09:19 There you go. That's where you get on. Well, done, Esther. I'm glad you nearly shat yourself too. And I got a stang by Anadel. This is called Lost in Translation because as well as being lost in translation, it's a no-judgment style podcast.
Starting point is 00:09:38 We listen to each other. And we don't judge until maybe we get home and then it's all hell breaks loose. But we have games, we have polls, we have all kinds. In fact, the results are in from last. week's lost in translation moment. So you guys basically decide who's right in our debate.
Starting point is 00:09:56 We have a debate each week, something that's really annoyed us about each other. Yeah. And you guys decide who's won. I'm annoyed already with these results. I feel like these results are not fair. Why? You've won? No.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Yeah. Not you? You've won. Did it? Yes. 10% agreed with me only. These results are fair. I'm very agree with them.
Starting point is 00:10:16 You were lost in translation reading that. 90% of you. you agree with Gawker that me having my infrared heat-up mat in the bedroom is bad. And only 10% of you agree with me that Gawker, instead of just ringing my mum when he needs something, he messages me to message my mum to message me back to him. No, no, I didn't ask you to message your mum. I just ask you a question. I never say, can you message your mum and ask this?
Starting point is 00:10:39 Anyway, but thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Someone on YouTube have said, I'm on Gokker's side all the way. I hate a hot bedroom. And they've also put great podcast guys. Love your discussions. Thank you. But I'll greet with me. That's nice.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Should we do it on to the debates this time? And I must say, since we have that conversation, she stopped doing it, and now she's doing it downstairs. But the other day, I came back from the sauna, and I found her in the same estate that she was in the bed, but now in the sofa. Yeah. So imagine when I walk through from the sauna,
Starting point is 00:11:15 sweating and cold, open the door and first thing I see Gemma from the bottom sat like this yeah on my red light bed you didn't want it on the bed I've done it on the sauna not judging I'm just saying the you're listening we don't judge
Starting point is 00:11:28 yes I was saying that you change it really appreciate that thank you very much it's very kind of you I don't want you're getting too hot it's very kind of you thank you should we move into the debate of this week yes you go first me go first
Starting point is 00:11:41 I can go ahead of mind I think you should go first okay so my one is it's regarding the fridge The fridge Yes So That I buy too much stuff
Starting point is 00:11:53 No It's everything everywhere So I don't know It's because I grew up And my mum and dad I always the fridge Very organized And I pick up from there
Starting point is 00:12:02 Top row we have the yogurts Then we have the fruits Then we have the meat The cheese and berries Then we have the meats And then it's the veg draw That's the theory That's what it is
Starting point is 00:12:13 No it's not That's what But it is when I put everything on the place. So you're now because the fridge is untidy? Yeah. You can't even see inside the fridge. Yeah, but at the time that I open the fridge and I'm going to get something, I'm like... That's because of your height.
Starting point is 00:12:31 It's where is it? Because you put everything everywhere. Like she gets, for example, let's say it's what she says, yeah? So we have the yogurts and then we have like the, like, for example, cheese and we have tomatoes and whatever. Like, all the fruits, yeah? So she gets the fruit. to make a yogurt and then the fruit
Starting point is 00:12:47 goes out here so they're in a different show so then you end up with a trade of blueberries in every shell a trade of tomatoes in every shell
Starting point is 00:12:56 what it is as well I like Tupperware food I hate it when food's opened you can tap it and put back without it being sealed
Starting point is 00:13:04 and you did learn your lesson with that once I was saying to you for ages you're putting chicken breast back in the fridge with it not sealed you're going to get
Starting point is 00:13:11 paula he's fine jemma he's fine jemma I always put it in a in a bag seal the bag put the date on it. That's perfect.
Starting point is 00:13:17 You ate chicken once, didn't you? That hadn't been sealed and you've got to give yourself food poisoning. Yeah, but also it was three days after the date anyway. Well. But what I'm saying is, don't try to turn this around to my fault. I go poisoning because I didn't seal the chicken.
Starting point is 00:13:30 It doesn't matter what you tell me. I know I'm going to win this debate today anyway. She has one kifir on the bottom shell of the doria where is the milks and the juice there. Another bottle of kifir where is the yoghurt. Kaffir is good for you? Yeah, another bottle of kifir where is the vegetables. Do you know what it is?
Starting point is 00:13:45 The one on the top shelf is. is the one that's been opened, that's why. Because they're all in the same package. So I know to you it makes no sense. But to me, the one that's the highest up is the one that I'd open recently. So that's the one I need to drink. If I have a shell on the door where you put the meals here, right to left, the one that is open is the nearest one to the edge you can get it.
Starting point is 00:14:02 And then the next one moves in, sorry. So you have a one here, and then the next one moves in. And then the new one was at the end. So every time that you move it, you have the empty one. Have you seen the film sleeping with the enemy? Yes. Well, that's what it's like. You with everything and all the cans and everything aren't right.
Starting point is 00:14:15 way we aren't round. No, but it's just so we know where it's everything because then what happens is where we go to the food shop, oh, there is no blueberries, there is blueberries, but they are on the bottom shelf because Jim are putting it on the round shell. And then you end up with seven avocaros on the fridge. Avocaros are good for you. Do you want me to tell you mine?
Starting point is 00:14:34 Of course, go for it. I know I'll win this week instantly. Because you don't even know about this yet. This is something I only know about this debate through Mia. What? Through our lovely little girl, Mia. Okay. While I was away, working,
Starting point is 00:14:50 she casually told me the other day, oh, Mommy, you know the day when Ryan came round, Ryan was our friend and stylist? And I went, yeah, she went, Papa thought we'd lost Benji. And I went, what? She said, Papa thought we'd lost Benji. She said he was looking all over for him.
Starting point is 00:15:08 I was crying even. No, when I went to show there. He was in the gym. When I went to show, Ryan, I didn't thought I lost him. It's when we went to show, Ryan, the new sauna. Yeah. Benji came with us, yeah?
Starting point is 00:15:21 And he went in the gym, and the builder was still working, remember? So then on the way back, I thought he came back or run first, yeah? Yeah. And then I was like, what is Benji? Like, he's not here. And I thought, what is him? Because I knew the gate was open. Oh, the gate was open.
Starting point is 00:15:36 But no, the gate was close. I thought the gate was open because he was working. The gate was shot. So I knew he didn't lost him. And then Benji was in the sauna with the builder. Well Mia said Papa thought he lost him Thanks Mia for brass me up
Starting point is 00:15:49 She said There's no more Swedish for you coming from Spain She said I was crying And she said And Papa was worried looking for him She was crying Because I was on the sauna
Starting point is 00:15:58 With Ryan explained him And he took more than 30 seconds To come back You know how is Mia Well in my head I thought God if he's lost Benji I will never lose Benji
Starting point is 00:16:07 I hope not I lose you first Then Benji Yeah that's what I need to hear I need that level of commitment When it comes to taking care of my dog Benj is my number one.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Please don't lose him. You've been dropped now. The way Mia described it was that you were running up the street looking for him. Well, you must know, Mia is half Spanish, so it's very dramatic. So she is dramatic. I still think I've won't, though, because when she told me, the fear that went through me. No, you won't want, you. You won't want that.
Starting point is 00:16:31 Losing a dog is worse than having an unorganized fridge. But do you agree that you have everything everywhere on the fridge? Yeah, but it's for a reason. Like I say, it's for, I know what's been opened earlier. There's no reason. because if you have three, let's say, you have three trays of blueberries, yeah? The one that has been open, the first one, you put it on top. And you buy...
Starting point is 00:16:51 He should go in Tupperware. He should go in a glass Tupperware. Bo? Blueberries. They shouldn't just be left open. Well, then you buy the glass Tupperware's. Because the last Tupper was I bought, it was myself, and half of them I use to have nuts to feed Brengie.
Starting point is 00:17:05 Sorry. To feed Freddy. Freddy. We've got another pet, Freddy, the squirrel. I bought a whole range of glass Tupperware's for all of that. half of them are to feed the nuts and the bear food. Freddie, I don't want him to have food with plastic in it. You have this morning.
Starting point is 00:17:21 You know like that scene of home alone when the old lady is in New York throwing the food for the pigeons. That was you this morning and six in the morning in the frozen grass. Yeah, because the first thing I genuinely said, I said to Mia and to you, but to Mia, just to kind of keep her in the loop with stuff, she was like, it's freezing, mummy, the grounds rock hard. And I said, I know, we have to help the dicky birds.
Starting point is 00:17:41 I said those robins that come in the morning because the ground's so hard they won't dig the worms You like his Ventura? Yeah You know that scene of his Ventura? And all the birds arrive. That's you.
Starting point is 00:17:54 They did arrive. They need help in the winter. It's cold for them. They can't dig up worms. You've got to help them out. So that's what we did this morning. Anyway, who do you agree with you? Do you agree with myself
Starting point is 00:18:04 and the fear of Gorka losing Benji because I believe Mia? No. I was a six-year-old daughter. Or do you agree with Gawker with the messy? fridge. Let us know Lost in Translation at bowermedia.com.com
Starting point is 00:18:15 on the email or lost.com on social media. Shall we solve another debate now? Well, it's more of a dilemma. It's a Gawker and Gemma dilemma. You guys get in touch with us each week and tell us something that you're having issues with
Starting point is 00:18:35 and we do our best to solve it for you. We've solved quite a few of these actually. I'm quite proud. This week's dilemma comes from Karen. Thank you for tuning in, Karen. And she says, her and a fella have been together for 12 and a half years
Starting point is 00:18:50 after meeting at the supermarket that they worked in. Spending five of those years living apart while I trained as a nurse and he worked in the East Midlands. So I really relate to the long-distance stuff that you both talk about and the trust.
Starting point is 00:19:04 Oh, that's good. My darling is, I am particular about the laundry. Me too. I separate my nurse uniforms then the dark, then the whites, then the lights, and the towels, and the Norse softener. My partner chucks everything together sometimes and forgets the softener. So when I moan if he hasn't used the softener or separated it how I would,
Starting point is 00:19:22 his reply is that if I complain, I should do it all. But then I get grumpy if the washing's overflowing, or if he doesn't fold the dry cleaning and washing. Happy debating my dilemma, Karen. Karen, I'm with you. I kind of feel like he's trying, and if he gets it wrong, he gets told off. And then if he says, well, you're trying once.
Starting point is 00:19:41 you do it then, he still gets stalled off. I'm like your fella, Karen. Do you know what? No, actually, I take that back. I'm not... You're funny with washing. Like her. You get annoyed with the most ridiculous things. Gorka won't let me wash his socks because he... Because they're a white sock. They have to be soaked first in crystal.
Starting point is 00:20:01 White crystal powder before they go in the watch. Why do you just hide your foot down? Please lift that foot to the camera. Why? What's up with it? No, no. What's up with that? underneath the sock. It's dirty, but I've been walking bare feet around the building.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Yeah, but it's dirty like that. This is in the moment you put it on, 100%. Who is going to look at this part of my foot throughout the day? Yeah, but... Ask yourself, are they matching today? No. This morning, yeah? This one says, manifest that shit.
Starting point is 00:20:30 This morning, she goes, give you some new socks and tie them up and put them upstairs. Belated birthday gift. I went, I went to open my drawer, and she put all her socks in my drawer. That was by accident At least he did it in my one And I said that's not here I do my socks yeah And it was an Adidas socks
Starting point is 00:20:46 Which I'm annoyed because I'm wearing nice shoes anyway But The fact that you have time to even make that Make that adjustment in the mind It's ridiculous I would love that time It's autopilot for me It's like driving
Starting point is 00:20:57 You don't think about that But I got the socks So I do the sock And when I put my sock One was eyes inside out And I put it on It was Adidas And then I have to flip the other one
Starting point is 00:21:06 And it was Adanola So I just realized I went to her, I was like, why is this sock in the eyes? Because she followed them. And she sees white and falls them white. It's a sock. It's not a sock. They come in pairs.
Starting point is 00:21:19 I just don't understand the annoyance. Maybe you should get with Karen. Go over and Karen and do you washing together. But that's why I do whites and it has to be whites. Karen, I recommend you do like me. What I do is say to Gemma, do know what's my clothes. She does that, but he again says to her you might as well do it all. Yeah, I do like me
Starting point is 00:21:40 I do it all To be fair He does his own washing When I do the ironing I only iron mine in the kids stuff You won't let me iron any of his clothes At all You've not even given me a chance to iron it
Starting point is 00:21:52 I don't know It's not a Jewish Yes because I don't like to write on my clothes You don't iron any stuff do you No I iron the kid stuff and mine Because when I wash them Once I take them out of the wash
Starting point is 00:22:00 I don't hug them I really flick them properly So they didn't get it straight And then I hug them on a way They when they dry They won't need ironing And then once I feel the eye is dry, I fold it properly and the fall way they won't have it like in shops. So they doesn't have marks.
Starting point is 00:22:17 It is like. And I steam if I need to. This and the fridge is sleeping with the enemy. And also another thing, you know what you did the other day? Talking now, thank you for my medicare. So that's another thing that she does. She puts the washing and the dryer and then she forget about it. So the other day, I was doing hour of family washing.
Starting point is 00:22:34 I didn't forget about it. I had to go to work. I didn't forget about it. I went to work. And when I came and it stopped the spin while I was at work. That's not true because that washing, yeah. So she went to work on Monday, yeah? So that washing.
Starting point is 00:22:46 Looking for a drink on Tuesday. I put three washings on Monday, yeah? Right, three. That's a lot. And another two on Tuesday. But it was all my travel clothes. I didn't have to put them on the dryer, yeah? So I know that washing wasn't on Monday.
Starting point is 00:23:00 That washing was from Sunday. So on Tuesday, when I put the washing of the kids and I went to take everything, out of the washing to put it on the dryer. I opened the dryer, and there was a full dryer, full of clothes that has been there since Sunday because you put the washing and it's half job done. You know, that's what we're talking the other day. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:23:20 You forgot it and you left it there. But I didn't forget it because I was playing video games or anything. I forgot it because you know this last, I'd nearly crap myself this week, Gawker. You were working on Sunday. Give me some slack and I was working. Okay. I've been working every hour God sent, parenting, almost crap myself. I would say Karen, just do your own, do everything yourself.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I get it with the nurse uniform. If you're in it all day, and it's your work uniform, it needs to be... On your own, yeah. But thank you for getting in touch, Karen. And good luck with your dilemma. I do understand if it's your nurse uniform. If it's your workout, it needs to be soft. Yeah, I do get that.

Starting point is 00:27:39 if they don't like you, you can't say. If they don't like you, genuinely like it can't work. Yeah. And that was literally within 10 minutes of meeting you. Look how chuff they were. Bless them. Oh, my cheeky boys. I know.
Starting point is 00:27:53 They're so cute. Norman and Olly. But yeah, that was the first time you met them. You passed the test. Oh. How funny with Pixar competitions with Norman and Ollie. Oh, that's Norman and Ollie. That's when you proposed.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Yes. That's Tatton Park, isn't it? That was just before I did it. Because I had a poo bag in my hand when he proposed to me. And you were moaning about like, how long? I'm freezing here. She wanted to go because I liked her. He set up a drone.
Starting point is 00:28:21 And I said, I wanted to go there to fly my new drone. And I was trying to fly the drone so the drone could record it. The drone did record. Yeah, he was flying a new drone. so he told me and it went right up in the air so where none of us could see it but he'd put it on a setting so that it just hovered and it captured it was going around captured gawker proposing to me and what happens is as always I didn't check everything before I we left so it was fully charged but always happens with the drones a bit of the right turn it on you have to update the firmware
Starting point is 00:28:53 so I have to update it and I was in the middle of the park with no service so it was taking forever to download the service she was like okay freezing is very windy and it was very windy because it was valentine's day and it was like almost snowing remember yeah and she was just like that with the pullback in the hands me trying to fly the drone so windy the drone wouldn't stay and she was already angry with me because in the morning she came with a valentine's car and i didn't give her once she was like and i was like oh i thought we weren't doing valentines and she was like well at least a car so she goes upset because she didn't have a Valentine's car
Starting point is 00:29:29 and then I give her. I love that Norman Olly were part of all that because we've got that on the video. But when he got down on one knee, I turned round and I was holding... Are you joking? I was holding a poo bag that was wafting in the wind. And you were going to do it earlier than Valentine's,
Starting point is 00:29:45 weren't you, but the ring wasn't made. It wasn't ready. And it was Gethyn Jones who was helping him sort the ring because Gethyn's a mate of ours. And it all happened, it all aligned. And I threw gritted teeth, yes.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Last bit, I'm joking. Last picture. I love that picture. That's 2019 when I did the hospital.

Starting point is 00:30:21 came back from a show that I was on two at the time and I was watching Raphael Nadal playing Wimbledon final, yeah? No, semi-final in Wimbledon.
Starting point is 00:30:31 And I was upset because I was going to miss it. He was asleep while I was in labour, and he says it's because he was tired from being on tour. You were not having contractors, you kind of like know you off. I was in and out. And I was saying, you're tired. Forgive me trying to evacuate a human from my vagina.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Evacuate. That was awful that. And after all that time, she was an emergency C-section anyway. Bless her. Good, but you see, you get the memories. Last one. Oh, that's in, is it Greece?

And that holiday. The goats. Yeah, it was one of the best holidays. We got attacked by wild goats because I invited them over to the. car to try and feed them as you do in the mountains and he was like move move um we
Starting point is 00:31:34 locals chased us down on bikes because i accidentally knocked the wing mirror off one of the cars as i drove past it and i was like just leave it it's fine but as soon as they heard our accent they scouted didn't they they got off then so i think they were a bit dodge and the best part of that holiday for me was that no we had a donut we went to the gym every morning and you got a donut with every coffee, but we had a bit of a, do you remember? Oh, the paddle thing? We played tennis every day on that holiday, beach tennis, without fail. And we got to the point where, again, it was like we have to get to 100 before we sunbathe.
Starting point is 00:32:10 We can't sunbathe until we get 100, a rally going of 100. And it was so good because it was so hot that we used to go to the beach at like 7.30 in the morning. And by then it goes like midday, it was very hot, so we used to go for breakfast at that time. Yeah. And we found a little coffee shop. They make lovely breakfast. And then with every ice ladder, they used to give us a sugar donut. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:30 So it was amazing. Perfect pre-workout. And then we used to go to the gym and then go to the beach club and start there. I remember. I have so many videos. We were doing snorkeling and everything. I love the holidays. Because we didn't have kids.
Starting point is 00:32:40 I know. That was where we could holiday and come back feeling refreshed. Yeah. We can still do that even we have kids, you know. I come back from any of our holidays feeling like I need a holiday. No, but we can leave the kids with our parents. My mom would love to be away with me and Tiago.
