ARAO original podcast I woke up this morning at 3 a.m. with his tongue leaking my eye. Excuse me, her socks are there? If we were in the gladiator days, you would be a rubbish Russell Crowe gladiator. No, I wouldn't. The reason I'd be good. Sometimes you can poo having a baby, so... I'm always polite, but I feel like replying no.

I listen, I don't judge, I take on board and I corrected. haven't. I ain't ordered and shitting for no one. For facts, eh, Gemma. So how's the week being? Well, we've had a bit of a chaotic week, aren't we? Because it's Halloween. Yes. So we've had, well, we had Mia's Harvest Festival the other day, Gorker's first ever harvest festival.

It was so cute, you know? He's missed the last ones, obviously, because of strictly. But this year, he got to come to the Harvest Festival. And she was brilliant, wouldn't she? And then we were at the first road. I couldn't stop tapping my foot Even when she came to school She came from school

She said the teacher Told her, your daddy Keep stopping the food to the beat On the day Yeah It was good So we had Harvest Festival

Then obviously it's Halloween So we've had to do the Halloween Disco Which we've had to prep for Because it wasn't fancy dress But then it was And she wants to go as a witch But she wants to custom make her outfit

She wants to rip it, doesn't she? Yeah, we just got a teacher And we cut it off And we put some, like, you know, like, we did the thing with the blood, isn't it? Fake blood, yeah. Yeah. Which I accidentally bought, thinking it was food dye. So a few weeks ago, she wanted to do baking.

Okay. And she wanted to do, you were away. She wanted to do a red velvet cake. So I thought, we'll just do a victorious bun and I'll die it. I couldn't put fake blood in the cake. I thought it was food coloring, like you could baby. But you just bought the wrong one. And we came home with fake blood to do baking with.

So I said, oh, no, it'll come in Andy for Halloween. We also realize as well that although Mia loves Halloween, Tiago so far hates it I know he's frightened to death of pumpkins isn't he I know it was well you weren't there

when it happened the first time because obviously Vicky I were cleaner so Vicky's our cleaner but those ones who doesn't know it so she's been coming to our house She's crazy

She's so funny She's honestly she's hilarious But she loves to do things for the kids Like bring gifts And like things like that So she decorated me as a room For Halloween with like uh it's a little witch's legs isn't it hanging out the door the bedding is like a how

you call ghosts is it ghosts yeah and also she put this like big uh pumpkin lights in the living room and you can put the candles and actually they're quite cute you know and me i loved but tiago didn't want to go in the living room he loves to be on his own on the living room he was like no no papa no no and i literally have to pick them up take them away in the utility if no he wouldn't go to the living room and then when we went upstairs he didn't want to go in me as room because of the legs I said to me yeah well the good thing is that you always moaned that your brother's always in your room now he won't go to your room so it was because she was like oh that's true so she was happy about it yeah he's fine with

pumpkins like it'd be fine with these ones because he went pumpkin picking didn't he with my niece um but it's when they've got a face carved into them he doesn't like the fake did they go this wild in spain with halloween it's different in Spain. I think it's more like an American and now British thing in the Halloween. Do you not celebrate it over there? Well, we do Halloween now. I think it's more popular now. But when I was younger, Halloween wasn't a thing for us. For us, it's more of like a family thing. For you guys, it's like you go to the, well, or you in America, they do the trick-or-treat, going to the houses and get sweets and do like that. For us, it's more of a day of mourning.

So normally on the day... Morning. Yeah, so it's when you go to like the cemetery. So, for example, if your grandparents or any family members they passed away, you visit them with flowers and then the family go for lunch or something like that. It's kind of more like that than a Halloween party. So is it kind of like, what's that film?

The Day of the Mortos. Yeah, is it like the Day of the Dead? Yes. So what's the film called? A poco loco. Coco. Yeah. So they have a day where they, it's the whole, they believe, which I'm more for.

the dead can come back I don't know if it's that or not but in Spain we are like Christian Catholics so on the Diades which is that day the 31st of October is when we go to the

cemetery like well no we go for example my grandma my mom's mom she will go to the cemetery put flowers pray on the graveyard and then we all go home and we have like a

proper family dinner like you'll have like a Christmas dinner we do the same thing that day maybe like a rose dinner or something like that all the family together and celebrate we still all together and remember those people they left us that's actually the complete opposite to people in the UK getting pissed on Halloween getting pissed up going out half-dressed as like slutty nurses no offense but in this country everything is excused to get pissed yeah I found out in the years I've been living here yeah that's true if they win at football

they get pissed to celebrate if we lose you get pissed to forget so no matter what if it rains you get pissed because you don't have nothing to do. If it's sunny, you go to the pub because you're going to get pissed, it isn't sunny. The thing is, though, with trick-or-treating, it has got a lot more out of control. When we were kids, I remember my Halloween costume, my mum used to get just a black bin bag and cut a hole in the bottom and the sides and put it over mine and Nina, Nina's my sister, put it over our heads, paint our face, mess our air up back home, and that was all we did. And we'd just go around to about three or four houses, normally my mate's mum's.

And we get loads of, like, pick and mix sweets and stuff. But now, there's been school mums, aren't there, messaging me for at least three weeks. And I'm saying, did they want to come tonight for Halloween? If they want to come trick-or-treating with those, and I'm always polite, but I feel like replying, no. I'm excited, you know, because obviously I've never do it because we am always busy strictly. Yeah, it's your first time. And strictly is fun because it's their best week is when you get fully dressed up. And the best thing is after you go out, you have already the costumes done.

But I would love to do it. been thinking like with the mask that I was wearing make customized clothes like we did you know you just need a boiler suit yeah I was thinking if I could have done that I would have said for me when me I went to trick or treat I would have sat outside and in the corner you know like in our corner yeah sat in there with a chair and just be there in the dark with a flashlight when the kids came in I would just point the torch on and be scary if you still do that well all you'll need if you have that mask you're just a boiler suit that's all mike myers had where's a boiler suit then blue ones

Like a zip one, like a won't see... Yeah, you'll know it from that, you know, Flash Dance. The other movie Flash Dance. Yeah, yeah, it's like a worker jumpsuit, no? Okay. Yeah, that's all he has on with a knife. Oh, and a bit of like greasy oil. That's different on, no.

You don't see your face. You've got might as much on. I was just going somewhere else. Oh, okay. No, not that type. Oh, for fuck, say, yeah, ma. Not that type, but not that type. So that's what we're going to be doing for Halloween.

So it's going to be a bit chaotic. And then we've got to take the kids trick-treating. And so we have a rule on our estate. Apparently, I was told it a few years back, if the decorations are up, you can knock on. If there's no decorations in the house, don't go anywhere near it. Okay. So that's what you'll have to remember when you take her. Because I don't think we can take, I think Tiago might really, I don't think we can take him yet.

I think he needs to be a bit bigger. I can't be ass with him, bless him, get him so frightened that we have sleepless nights for weeks then we end after it. You think we can do a thing? Instead of take them, can I just bought a lot of sweets and just pretend that I could. collect them, so we just stay home. We don't have to go anywhere. No, that's not nice on Mia. You imagine. No, no trick-or-treating, but here's lots of candy. This, by the way, is why this show is called Lost in Translation, because clearly lots of

things, I mean, I didn't realize that about Spain and the Day of the Dead. I think that's a really, really lovely. Another point, now to clarify, you know, when we do our kind of like Halloween, but it's not Halloween, we celebrate in February, yeah, and it's called Carnival. Carnival Yes Right But for you guys

For example If I said to you carnival You're thinking of Not in Hill Carnival Isn't it Something like that You know like Or people who will be listening

As you will And they are from like London Or something like that They will be thinking Not in Hill Carnival For us the carnival For us the carnival It's in February

And it's where we dress up I used to dress up Like you know like a scream Scream mask Yeah with a scream mask In February What's celebrating? In Carnival

It's the week of Carnival It's like when you see the Brazilians doing the carnival. Oh, with like the Big Bowers and stuff. Rio de Janeiro or like Grand Canaria, they have this massive carnival. So we do it in February. I don't know why. I could Google it, but I don't know why. I know it's always in February.

Oh, okay. You know when in February we went to Spain. We have 10 from me at school before Easter. I think it has to be something with the religion also. Because it's just... How long have you been alive doing it for? It's just X amount of weeks before Easter. So is it before or after valentines?

I think it's after valentines. We never celebrated valentines, haven't we? What do you mean? Me and you, we don't... Yes, we do. We're just going on a different subject, but we did last Sunday we celebrate. We went to a restaurant in Manchester

and we stayed in a lovely hotel together. You, how many, when was that? How many years ago? Before Tiago. No last year, yeah, before, because last year I was in Spain working, remember. Yeah. Yeah, we went.

Tiago was born already. Was it? Yeah. We stayed in a lovely. hotel in Manchester you have a nice bath clearly it was memorable but the time that you had the bath came out I was asleep yes I do remember you fell asleep yeah and we and I do remember now because Tiago was so little we went and I did it was a sushi place wasn't it yes although I don't really eat a lot of sushi yeah you just have a rice yeah and rice yeah um and I remember we got

back to the hotel and we both fell asleep because we were so knackered from parents in oh and they say romance because I remember we check in and you were like I'm just going to have a bath and now when I said okay I'm going to go do some shopping so I went to the shops came back you're still in the bath and then I lie in the bed and I fall asleep before going for dinner. There you go. Yeah rock and roll. Now as always on this part it's a judgment for his own in it so it's kind of like a little therapy session for us in it we've got a spani de mancunia we're navigating life together raising kids trying to plan all kinds of stuff and like I said last week it's a good job that I can't reach you because sometimes I'm sensing some

things may be said where we go, oh, it's good. Meet it apart. Yeah. But if you want to get in touch or you've got any questions, you can find us on social media. It's lost.com. It's lost.combe, our socials, or you can email us. Our email address is, lost in translation at bowermedia.com. And we really do love all your feedback and your comments.

And if you could subscribe and give us a like, a thumbs up, that'd be great. For this part, the producers. know what's coming but we genuinely don't so like we say it's a judgment free zone in fact we listen and we don't judge and things happen during the week that really really annoy me and really really annoy you about each other and rather than mention it then in there at home we just text our producer and we have it out here um no pressure but you guys get to decide who's right and who's wrong i just like to slip in there that last week your pet peeve with me was that I allowed Benji to be on the bed

for the seven weeks you were away and got used to it and now sleeps on the bed. Correct. You were asking, am I in the wrong or right for doing that? I didn't ask you if you were on the wrong of the right. 80% of people agree with me that a dog should be allowed on the bed. Well, I can show you my dad

send me a video from Instagram no longer a couple of days and it's a doctor specialist or not a doctor like a person who's a specialist on dog behavior and dog training and blah, blah, and he said, do never allow your cats on dogs or dogs to sleep with you for the following reason.

So I can send the video to you can see it. I can send the video to our producer, and they can click in the video. What was one of the reasons? Hygiene. I didn't open it. I can explain you. I was sat on the toilet where my dad was at me

and I would saw it. And I thought, I'm not even going to bother me watching this because it's going to even upset me more so I didn't watch the If they say it's for hygiene I get that with cats Because cats go out on the day

You don't know where they've been It's roaming around With Benji Every time he comes home from a walk What's the first thing I do with him? Wash his paws I stand him in the utility sink I wash his paws

I'll wipe round his mouth He's the cleanest dog you will ever find This is not about a genie This is about And this is the conversation that we had the first time that we got Benji and the first time the trainer came to the house, yeah? So a dog is a pack animal, yeah?

And they follow the leader. In this case, you and I are the leaders and we need to show that we are the leaders and their respect. This goes back to the ancestral years, yeah? So if you are allowed, for example, if your dog, you are teaching your dog to don't bat for your food, don't jump for your food, you...

It doesn't pack, is it? Never, sometimes jumps, no many times, it's just especially with the kids. You have to show the dog, you are the leader. So the leader eats first. And then once the leader is eat, the rest can eat. That's how you teach behaviors. How does this go back to being on the bed? The same.

You are the leader. That's your bed. When you allow the dog sleeping in your bed, you're telling him that you are on the same scale so that he will never respect you. He needs to sleep on the floor because he knows the authority is the levels. So that's your authority. At the moment, there is no authority with our dog Because he sleeps on my pillow

This is why, right? I walk up this morning at 3am with his tongue licking my eye If we were in the gladiator days You would be a rubbish Russell Crowe gladiator No, I wouldn't. Have you seen me? No, the reason I'd be good Because if I was leading an army of dogs or people

We're all equal in that we all need a good night's sleep No I look after my pack I'll make sure they're all fed and water So they got strength I wouldn't leave one of them outside you go outside, you go here, no, we're all equal. We are not equal.

You are on an animal pack. It's like wolves. You need to tell him who is the lead. The wolf puts the strongest one at the back. If you got just to protect the back and one at the front. Yes. But that's still being the leader. Oh, this was last week's bloody debate.

Still. And I'm going to tell you this week's now. Still happening, you know. Should we move on to this week? She haven't correct now. I haven't moved. She hasn't correct that. What I noticed you about me last week?

I want to tell you now. No, last week it was the luggage downstairs. Oh, yeah, and it's been moved. There you go. You see, I improve. I listen, I don't judge, I take on board, and I corrected. She haven't. No.

Benji slept on the bed, like, I woke up this morning, he was snuggled right into me. No, he was leaking my left eye. I woke up with his tongue on my left eye like that. Yeah, he was saying, come on, dad. Time to get up. At 3 a. There's nothing nicer than waking up to a little boop, nose boop in the morning. Yeah, fishy smell of the tongue.

So my debate this week, I actually, I'll be honest, I actually struggled this week because you have, and I even said to Mall the producer, you haven't really done anything at all. There was only one thing. And I told myself it's because he was rushing. You made it up. Not because you did it on purpose.

Or you are just making it up. No. When I tell you what it is, you'll go, ah, yeah. And sometimes you do it, sometimes you don't. The door unlocked of the patio. No. Okay. But you just do that as well sometimes.

So on a Friday. Window open. No. The kids go. But these are all the things that you do do. I'm glad you're admitting that the kids go swimming on a Friday and then my mum has them for tea, don't she, at her house. I pick them up on my way home from work and I bring them home.

We have a gate and how long is our drive, would you say, at least to our house? 60, 70 metres, would you say? Yeah. Yeah. So it's a long walk, isn't it, if you think? The bins. They're bins. I didn't brought the bin down.

Our bin day is Friday. And all I asked him to do before. I left earlier and he wasn't clean. Yeah. Oh, really? Is that why you didn't do it? Yeah. It didn't have the paper to be clean.

So it's the bin man's fault? No, it's... Because we get a little bit... Okay, I will let that slide then? Sometimes cleans it or sometimes it doesn't clean the earlier. I let that slide then. There you go home from work, basically. It was late at night, both kids, and the bin hadn't been brought in.

And I was like, oh, it's the one thing I asked him to do. I brought the beans back the week before when he was chucking it down. That's why I was saying. And I did it. So I went and he was not the paper which says clean. So I left it. Because I left an hour earlier than normal. Yeah, and Mia doesn't like being in the house on her own,

so I have to take her with me. I have to carry Tiago because he doesn't like walking up that hill. So I had both kids a bin in the rain, in the dark, walking... It wasn't raining on Friday. It was when I came home with the bin. Really? Yeah. And I was cussing him.

I'll give you a tip next time. What you do? What? You drive your car, yeah? You left them too in the car. Yeah? Tiago stays in the car fine. And then you just go back to the bin, bring the bin,

and then you don't have to walk with them. Oh, you could just bring it in when you don't know. Okay, you want me to bring it. Anyway, she'll move on to your debate. You want me to bring it with no cleaning? Then you will be like, why do you brought the bin? It's not being clean. Which I did before and you told me.

Well, I did say I struggled this week, but that was the only thing. Yeah. I think it was going to be the window, because I know I left the house with the blinds down, the window open and you were cold after. Yeah. I was cold in the night. I came down and the window was wide open with the blinds down. Okay, what's yours?

Are you barefoot today? No, I can't be barefoot, can I? Yeah, you know, yeah. She's wearing socks. I got told off this morning for wearing... He actually said to me, like you would a teacher, oh, excuse me, whose socks are there? And I just went, sorry, whose socks are they?

No, yours, they might have did this. Yes. And I said, do you want me to go upstairs and take them off? And he went, no, it's okay. So it's like, well, what's the point? What was the point in it then? To remember the next time don't wear my socks. I will happily share anything with you.

Maybe not food if I'm really hungry. But a pair of socks. Why do you bother about socks? We've got the same size feet. Yes, I know that. And that's why you wear my trainers. Yeah, but they're not going to, if I was a size 10 and I was stretching them, I'd get it. It's the same size.

It's not about the size. They are my socks. Don't wear them because they are white socks. Then you will wear them bare food everywhere. They will be grey. And then when you wash them, you don't make them wash to be white. You just wash them. And also, you mix them.

So then I end up with, like, It's matching today, though, aren't it? Yes, because, no, you see? Oh, no, so they're not even matching. So I've got one of yours on and one of mine, actually. No, because these clothes were on the dryer. You just took them from the dryer, they've been washed, and you just go, a white socks.

You didn't even look. It happens all the time. That's what annoys me. No, I've got one of each, so I've got half of you and half of me all day. No, because now I will have in my draw, a spare sock that I can not wear because the other one is being worn by you and it's dirty. But no one's going to look at your socks. But I know it.

The only thing that sees your socks is the bottom of your shoe. Do you think it's our, so it's not matching? It's a conscious thing. Okay. What have I not? Apart from the socks, what else have I done this week? No, that was this morning. No, this week.

This week, so annoys me. Yeah. Every time that you come from work, you know that you'd arrive and you say hello, blah, blah, blah, and say hello to Benji, and hello to the kids. And then you go, yeah, yeah, I'll do it now. But you end up with your rock sack on the table, your kids, not kids, kids, on the table, your three or two coffee macks on. the table from the car because you have the one from yesterday and the one from today. I know, I'll take your mugs to work because I don't trust the kitchen. And then

you live basically in our dining table and the chair you leave everything on the counter you leave everything and you go I tidy up now but then in the morning still all there. You do that every day. Put my rucksack I put under the stairs. No you don't. It goes on the chair I normally put it on the chair that you're eating in so I take my Tupperware out to wash my Tupperware. Yes and you leave

the backpack there. But sometimes put it under the stairs. No. And the coffee moths are washed. And when it's under the stairs, it's because I put it there. Instead of the mown at you now, I'll just put it straight away. Well, now you know how I feel with a suitcase. At least a rucksack isn't the size of a suitcase.

Yeah, but the suitcases we moved already. On Sunday... Well, from tonight, the rucksack will be moved. What did I do on Sunday when I arrived? The first thing I did say hello to you, and straight away, I put the luggage in the office. In the office. Straight away. Where it belongs.

Straight away. Well, then tonight, when I come home from work, I will put my rucksack under the stairs but I first will remove my Tupperware and my mug and the keys, the reason I don't put the keys away is because I put them in my pocket when I walk Benji.

Who has been walking Benji all week? But for what reason? Yeah, but who's been walking Benji all week? Who has been walking Benji a week? I walked him last night. Yeah, but who has been walking the rest of the days? You've walked him three times. Twice.

It's four days of the week. Two days. Monday, Tuesday. It's Wednesday. Yeah, I walked him last night which is Wednesday. And Sunday. So you've walked him twice.

Yeah, but what did you still live in the kiss? I put him on the table so I'd get them to go out to walk Benji. But I walk Benji. Twice. And you left him there. I walked him. Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday. What do you do when you came back from walking Benji?

You take his collar and lead. What do you leave it? Normally, it's in my boot. No. Normally I leave him all in my boots so that it's there for the morning. No, you don't. You leave it on the table. Yeah, for the next day.

You have a place behind the utility that is Benji's drawer and everything. to do his things, why you leave it on the table? We have actually dedicated a full... Covered. A full cupboard for Benji. He's got his little blanket, his toys, his medications, if he ever needs any of his little airdrops. But I think it's just...

Norman and Olli are actually in that cupboard. It's just your comfort thing. It's like, for example, she goes to the gym, comes from the gym, yeah? And she needs to shower or she needs to, like, get ready for go work. So she takes the trainers in there when she walks from the garden,

leaves it there, and then she takes her socks, and she's going to put the socks for the washing basket. Let's say the washing basket is there. But on the way to the washing basket is a table. So she drops her socks on the table and leaves them in there. Because I'm going to wear them again within like a few hours. They were for the wash. You just sweat them on the gym.

But if they're not really sweaty, they're not really bad. I'll just put them back on before I got work. Yeah, but you put them on your shoes. No, on the dining table. And I go like, what is these socks here for? Oh, I'm going to wear them later. Yeah, but I can't. If you leave your socks, you know, if you leave any socks in shoes in our house,

they go to the bin. They go to Benji, you'll chew them. So I put them on a place where he cannot reach them. And the second one. What do you mean the second one? Yes, I have another thing. It's not even a moan, it's not me that I'm moaning about you. It's just you moaning in general.

I find they funny. My foot? Yes. It's not, I've had rugby players message me saying they've had that pain, and it's one of the worst pains in life, big burly rugby guys. saying how painful it is. It is so debilitating. I know it's painful.

You don't know because you never had it. Ask Kai. Kai has the same problem. You think that I haven't had it or I haven't mentioned it? It's different. I've basically got planter fasciitis. Yes.

And drama queen also. Because you know, you always moan or you always said that I cannot hold pain, that I'm all the time moaning, blah, blah. And this week, for the three days of the week, like you said, I've never heard you,

moaning and complaining more about something. It is painful, I know. Very painful. But do you have to say it every five minutes? When I'm carrying Tiago and I've got an extra 20 kilograms on me, it's even more painful. It's not that you're moaning, it's just this. Oh. Yeah, because it's like standing on a piece of glass.

Occasionally, I'm walking it, and it shoots right up the back of my calf. It absolutely right. I would like to point out, you had an injury once, a back injury. and you were walking round You were walking around the garden with a stick like Gandalf for three weeks You sleep disc on my lower bag

L1L2 L4L5 Two bulging discs Yeah And you were literally You had a walking stick Yeah I was crying of pain He cried with pain I have to be carrying the house

Yeah So and I was on bed rest All that time for you I did everything for you I even put your socks on With this There's been no sympathy Excuse me

Who was massac in your house your calf and your foot the other day and he was doing with the blade scrapping your foot yeah who is the one who fixed your neck every down that you moan over your neck I've got that special pillow now yes and who's the one is always

with the elbow there and the blade what I was doing last night you did my calf yeah there we go you know that's just to stop me moaning I'm not saying that you know moaning I'm saying that it's funny I hope it goes and in all seriousness I've had it it's been so long now I have to wear

flip-flops I've got my sliders next door to take to work after this I've got trainers on when I'm walking out in public but honestly and it's shooting right up my calf it goes up to like my backside if it's not gone in two weeks I'm gonna have to genuinely see it off again calf so yeah shoots up my calf say it again shoots up my calf why it's funny why would you say shoot up my calf shoots up my calf it shoots up my calf it shoots at my calf? No, she's up on my calf.

What's calf in Spanish? Gamelo. Chimelo? Twins. She used up with chalmelo. But it's also twins. Gamelo is twin. So you've got a word for a calf and a word for a twin.

Yes. So when you're going to say, they are twins, you say they are gemelos. But also gemelos is your calves. You know why? Why? Because they're the same. Twins. No, we're having the same word for two different things.

We have same words for too many things. I know. You have different endings for masculine and feminine. I know that from my Spanish lessons. How do you say chicken? Polio. Poyo? And if it's a female? Poya.

So, if you like male polloo, what do you say? I like? That's swearing, isn't it? No. Oh, is it saying penis? Is it caught? Pollo's chicken. Poya is penis. I definitely don't like poya. Not at the minute. Not after this dilemma. I already know this. I think people are going to agree with you this week.

We've just moved in together and things are going really well except for one small toilet-shaped issue. I cannot, and I mean cannot go for a poo if he is in the flat. It's physically impossible. The bathroom is basically in the living room, the walls of paper

thin, and the thought of him hearing even a hint of activity makes my soul leave my body. It's gotten so bad that I've started timing my movements around his schedule. Oh my gosh. I'll wait until he pops the Tesco and even once told him I was having a long shower just so I could multitask. she's put the shower on while she's had a poo. He keeps saying it's natural. Everyone does it, but I just don't want to cross that line. I feel like once I do the romance, we'll go down the drain. So I need to know, is it ever okay to go to the toilet in front of your partner,

or should some mysteries stay behind locked door? How do you guys get on? Please help me on my bowels. Well, I think for us it's very straightforward. You've pooed in front of me. Yeah, and you poo in front of me. Yeah, we put with the door open when she's made. If I have an emergency in the dentist toilet and you, like in the other side,

sometimes we're talking through the door. I ain't holding shitting for no one. No, but that's what I mean. I feel like, I mean, I don't know if we are the right people to, like, give advice because everybody is different in this. Well, do you know, my friend, she doesn't anymore, but you know, Nat, don't you? She's one of my best friends. She's amazing.

Years and years ago, when we were younger, she, she on holiday when she started dating this guy because it was early on in the relationship, she used to set her alarm on a phone and go down to the hotel reception to have a poo because she couldn't poo in front of him. Well, I did that the first time that we went on holidays together. You did, didn't? Yeah, yeah. You pooed in reception.

Yeah, when it was the toilet downstairs. I need to have a win. I went to the toilet and I have a put there. But obviously, it was the first time that we were, like, really sharing a room or, like, on the holidays. But that's in the beginning. And why did you go, did you think it would be, the smell was embarrassing? The sound? I was just worried about the smell, you know what I mean, in case.

Like, I've never smelled poo in my life. No, I know, but I think, like, that's a natural thing to do. I think, I also feel like in a relationship, if you're, like, comfortable with it, It's obviously I know you say about boundaries and things like that but I think if you're comfortable with your partner and your relationship, you don't be worried and a shame is another thing to do, it's a normal thing. I don't know.

I grew up with doing it, my mum and I'm not doing it. What about trumping? When did we first trump in front of each other? I don't know. But I love sometimes little and then waft the dovi. Yeah, he does, which is awful. But I do know people who would like... No, like...

Or not even talk about it. Yeah, it's... It'll be like... Absolutely. We've got a couple that have been together over 10 years, never ever done it in front of each other. Or even talk about anything like... Yeah, they can't discuss it. Yeah, they can't discuss it.

But I think once you've seen your partner have a baby, pretty much... I mean, sometimes you can put having a baby, so... And also, we both witnessed each other. And was it our first or second holiday when I got norovirus? Yes. Oh, my God, that was the worst day of my life. I know. We were abroad and I got norovirus, and a doctor had to come to the virus.

room and give me an injection in my ass didn't he but it was both ends like literally you were stood holding my hair I was shitting from the back puking from the front and I remember at that point because it was quite early on thinking I'm never going to be embarrassed in front of this man again it was awful and I think I was sunburnt as well so my back was all red yeah I must have look horrendous remember me when I got it yeah and I would have and once I was at home both ends yeah I was like in the toilet from the bottle and then I have a sick way so I was half naked. I didn't even have time to wipe myself

at the same time that I was vomiting. So that was like, was there an exercise. Exorcism, yeah. It was horrible. That's when I slept in me as bed that now. I was like, if this, I'm out of it. This is actually very interesting that we had this dilemma.

A couple of days ago, I was listening to Spanish radio, and this is a fact for you guys. Did you know that every single person does something between seven and 20? 20 times a day and we all do it. Guess what is it? Between 7 and 20 times a day. It's definitely not pooing.

Every single person, there is a fact that every person does every day between 7 and 29 things, something that's non-concurely, conscious thing. Either birth or Trump. It is Trump, yeah. So every person between 7 and 20 times a day will Trump. You do it every time you have a wee in the morning. I think it's a, I think I'll. A lot of men do.

When I think back, no, when I think back to even X's. You're giving too much information. When I think back, every guy I've known, first week of the day, there's a far accompanying it. You do it before bed? Yeah, I always do. I'm not bothered about trumps. I think it's natural. My mom always says, wherever you may be, let the wind fly free.

She used to say to me, if you're old your Trump's in, you're going to make yourself poorly. My dad, that's why I don't hold them, you know? I remember I was probably like 10-11, and my dad has a job that you just like a business job, you know, like insurance and blah. So he has to have meetings or like seeing people, yeah? And it was this day he had a meeting and he had this

very, very like bad like cramps or graves you know when you're holding your trumps, yeah? Tramps or farts? How do you say? We'd say trump, farts, pump.

Okay. So he was holding so bad in the meeting, yeah? And he held it in hold it in hold it. So he got the air trap in his intestines, yeah? So he had very, very, very bad pain.

he was thinking they have appendicitis. From holding a fart? I swear. He had to go to the hospital, Ian E and they have to put him on a drip. He spent on the hospital three days because of the trap air on the intestines. They are not in the intestine. So he was in horrendously pain. He couldn't do anything.

They have to put like this drip and something to like, you know, like this all the gas. Laughing, although that's not funny. So the doctor said to him, we'll never. ever hold your farts because it's very bad for you. I do, I do a cheeky cough. Yeah, it's bad for you, honestly. It's a chemical that you get rid of the body. Well, there you go, Emily.

It's not worth risking your health over. You just have to always go in prepared. As long as you've got a toilet brush and some bleach, a little bit of spray, that's what we are. We have a little sprits, don't we, under the sink. Toilet brush and bleach all there. I used to buy before, when I used to work on the cruise ships. Obviously in the cruise ships, you share a...

Cabins. No, you say caverns with someone else, but then you also have jack and jails, which is your individual room with a communal shower and toilet. And the shower and the toilet are in the same cubicle, yeah? So basically, you're going to be showered and having a shit at the same time. So it's actually quick, you know? You do both for one, so it's very fast.

And you get sat down, so you don't get tired. But obviously, you are conscious of the other person, you know. So we used to buy these sprays. It's called Pupuru. Yes, yellow. Popuru, you have. have different fragrances, and what you do, in the water, before you're going to pull, you spray it, so then that's in the smell, and then you flush it, and it's like it never

happened. Well, there you go, Emily. Hopefully, we've solved your dilemma. And if a fellow's not bothered anyway, you poo away, love. So the producers have got a game for us now. Oh, okay. This is called Trick-a-Treat, obviously, because it's a Halloween edition. So we're going to each take turns to reach inside the bag and pull out a mystery item

and it's either a trick which is like something gross or weird or whatever or it's a treat something nice Oh I love this game since this one I did it once is that you have sweets But you get the sweet in the mouth and you start to eat it it might taste funny I don't know Is it this? Oh do you want us to go at the same time? Okay

No the best of three yeah Rock paper scissors shoot one rock paper scissors shoe one one rock paper scissors shoe two one rock paper scissors shoe you won you go first it's fairer that can't look at it just put your hand in my bad I just take one oh this is very scary is that you yeah is that you in Poonam yes last year this is in Halloween I look like Jack Sparrow I've got a bounce What do you got that and I got a picture? Do you know, the last time I had a bounty, I'm not even joking.

I must have been about... 12. Yeah, I was a young kid. I've not had a bounty in absolutely years. Is that chocolate or just coconut bar? It's chocolate with coconut inside it. Ooh, I don't know if I would like the mix of both. Do you want to try some?

I can't try it. I have not eating yet. So I like... I like coconut. I like chocolate separate. I don't know. It's like a mint chocolate. Oh, see, it smells lovely.

Do you like coconut? I love coconuts. We'll try it then. You like coconut, you like chocolate. It's a nice mix. No. I'm not 100% on it. I like orange and I like chocolate.

Chocolate orange doesn't work for me. Okay. To be fair, at Christmas, bounties are always the one that's last in the celebration box in our house. I'm not 100% keen on them. I prefer a boost. Do you like it?

I like, it just tastes coconut for me. Oh, there you go. You've got a little pre-work out there. You're going to swallow first. I cannot talk like this Between the Spanish lips and this You don't eat a lot of chocolate To be fair do you

The chocolate I have at home I have It's a brand It's literally it's just 100% black chocolate It's just cow Cacao yeah That's all it is And everyone I give it to goes

No but I genuinely love it I like the one you eat But I don't I cannot do You have a full square I have to like Grate it Grater into like my porridge And my yogurt

Like that It's very good for you know It's very medicinal Yeah It's full of antioxidants, but it's full of polyphenols, which is really, really good for your heart. Yeah, and for your muscles. And did you know, for example, when someone says,

oh, I'm having cramps, I'm having cramps, my condition, dark chocolate, you don't need to take electrolytes. Just have an ounce of dark chocolate a day. It will help you enough because of the polyphenols. Helps my cravings before a period as well. Yeah. I always have more. Do you want to dip your hand in again?

Oh, chuppa chubs. Chubber chops. They used to make cool adverts for chopper chops back in the day. How you call them? Chuppa chops. Chupachuse. Chippochews. In Spanish, chupacuse.

Oh, this brings me back to school. I think I'd chip my tooth on one of them one time. In Spain, in the school that I used to go, yeah? And I used to get it out of the school, it was the corner shop. Yeah. And the corner shop, it was you could buy the newspapers, the magazines, like, you know, the day-to-day press. Yeah. But they also have, like, a huge section of piccimics.

You mind, it was like this. Like what you're getting the cinema? Yeah, no, but the proper piccum is there. You know when we go to Spain in the shopping mall? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like that was like three stories like rows of Picamese. So on a Friday, on the way to school in the afternoon, after lunch,

I used to spend three euros on the Picamix place with my friends. Yeah. And we used to take them. So we used to buy some chupacuse and a lot of like Haribos sweets, you know, like the strawberries, the fingers, everything. And then because it was Friday in class, we used to eat them and throw them from one side to the other to share. Do you remember when I was pregnant with Mia and I lived on Tang Fastix?

Yes. Everywhere in my car door, in the cupboard at the house, next to the side of the bed, there was a packet of tang, fast. Question, is Chupacuse Spanish or is not? I think it is Spanish, yeah. I always thought Chupacuse was Spanish. Anyway, I'll keep that for Mia. I've got a little picture as well.

Oh, look. That was when I did I'm a celebrity, get me out of it. On the Cougarachas? That was 2000. I did that. I had my 23rd birthday in the job. I could have a thing or anything was. And one of the trials, my 23rd birthday was a terror train, a terror train of, train of terror or something.

And it was me and Jay Brown from five, who I'm going to see soon, I'm going to see five, big up the five reunion. They put us in like this little cart, like a walser. And it was like a fun house, pitch black. We had to go through it. And every time it stopped, cockroaches, mealworms, spiders. Ants all got dropped on us. It was awful gocker. I can't even tell you.

And you know the thing the cockroaches? No. They stink. I won't be able to... They smell so bad. I won't be able to do that. You don't see it, obviously, through the telly, but their smell of cockroaches is horrendous.

What is the smell of? It's weird. It's like, it's like musty and they kind of like go, they make funny noises. They're crackly, isn't it? Yeah. Loads and loads of noises. Ooh.

But I had my 23rd birthday. And they brought in a massive chocolate cake. And I don't think this got aired on telly. It didn't. But they brought in a massive chocolate cake. And above it was a box full of cockroaches. And it was just a game for the camp members to all do. And we all had to answer questions on each other.

And every time we've got a question right, nothing happened. Every time we got a question wrong, the box of cockroaches got lower to the cake. And it was Janice Dickinson, I think, got the question wrong at the very last minute. and the box of cockroaches opened and just fell all over my chocolate cake and we were all just like, no! Because it was literally, I mean, in hindsight, had we eaten it, we would have all just been off our tits

because we'd had no food at all. It would have been awful, imagine the headache after. But it was so upsetting that it was like one of those big Costco chocolate cakes. Your favourite? Yeah, and we couldn't eat it. So you didn't eat it then? No. But I was 23 in the jungle.

And I genuinely loved it. It was one of the, we didn't have to worry about hair and makeup. You wake up every day to cricket, go to sleep to cricket, wake up to birds. There was forests, streams. You look the same. I looked the same. Yeah. Oh, thanks. Oh, what is this?

What is it? Like a potion? I don't know. I'll open it and so I see. Oh. Was it like a slime? Miro loved that. She loves slime.

Yeah. Do you remember when she went through a phase of wanting to make slime? Oh, it's like we used to have this. Oh, what's it called? Like jump. Do you know the movie with the Robbie Williams? Jump. It was the green thing that he used to make.

Not jump, flubber. Flobber, yeah. Where did you get jump from? Because they used to jump, no, with the flabber, no, in the basketball games, isn't it? Yeah, flubber. It was green, no? Yeah. It's the same.

Ooh, that feels. Yeah, Mio went through a phase of wanting to make slime, which was fun. She would love this. I've got to enjoy your free foot rub from Gorka. Present this voucher to receive a complimentary foot rub any time. Come on there now. He is very good at foot rubs. I'll do it now.
