Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello everyone and welcome to Daily Brightness. We are back in business. Rach, how are you? Anything to update us on? Not really. Everything's pretty much the same. Being with the dogs, being at training. What about you?
Starting point is 00:00:22 We do have like a standard life, don't we? A strict schedule. Eat, sleep, breathe football and work. walking the dogs. Yeah, pretty much same. Only new thing is I've got my tattoo finished at the top so leg piece is coming along
Starting point is 00:00:37 nicely. But that's about it. I'm just so glad preseason is over with. Good riddins to your. Welcome to the new season. Another one in the books. Another one in the books.
Starting point is 00:00:48 The body survived. The joints are good. So with the new season, kicking off this week, thought it was an ideal opportunity to have a little WSL preview. Millie, you kick off the season with Chelsea on Friday night
Starting point is 00:01:01 against City. Feels like the only team you played against last year. So how are you feeling about your upcoming season? Like, how have you felt in preseason games? Yeah, it's been really good. I think we've had some really good games. I think we've been challenged in different ways.
Starting point is 00:01:16 And yeah, it's been a really interesting preseason. A lot of new players coming in. So getting them settled and different challenges with different opponents. But, yeah, like you said, City, the first game, I thought it was ironic since then we played them. four times in a row last year. So it seems like yesterday when we played them last.
Starting point is 00:01:35 But I think an amazing game to kick off the season, Friday night, under the lights at the bridge, against the top team. And yeah, it's kind of starting at the deep end, I guess, because, you know, obviously they're going to be a team that are looking to compete and, you know, they'll want some silverware this year just like any other team. So I think definitely one that we've got to be aware of.
Starting point is 00:01:57 But everyone's, yeah, raring to go. It's been a long pre-season. So how do you like make sure, you know, the motivation and your standards remain so high at Chelsea because you just keep winning every year? Like what is like the messaging in preseason? So like, is it just continue where we left off? We want to do better than what we did last year,
Starting point is 00:02:17 which I know some people have like, but you won the treble. Obviously we didn't win the Champions League. And I don't think we shy away from saying that we're here to win everything, anything that we compete for we want to win. I think it's part and parcel have been a Chelsea player and kind of the DNA at the club
Starting point is 00:02:33 it's to have that mentality but I think for us it's just to always be better and I've, you know, having been at the club 11 years now, I've never felt any season where I'm like, oh, it's dropped off a little bit I don't really feel challenged, don't really feel like I'm pushing myself
Starting point is 00:02:48 or do you know what I mean? I've never felt like it's gone stale I feel like it's like that itch where you've got to win, you've got to win, you've got to win and it's like if you don't I mean, I'd be the biggest sore loser ever. But it's kind of like installed in us now to want to win,
Starting point is 00:03:06 whether it's training, games, and obviously for us, we want to go and do even better this season. So, yeah, we want to do the travel again, but we want the Champions League on top of that. And we want to, you know, have the best performances and be the team that everyone's looking at. And naturally everyone wants to win silverware. But, yeah, it's kind of like that annoying little thing in your head now
Starting point is 00:03:28 where you're like win, win, win, win, do whatever it takes. And just keep adding to the legacy, I think that's the biggest thing for me. Yeah, I think it's obviously added pressure every year because you just are so successful. Like, that's obviously the DNA and the club and the culture that you have. But I think especially you being captain, it's probably added pressure as well for you, like keeping those standards high, making sure everyone's on top of the game. But talk us through your new faces.
Starting point is 00:03:53 How are they settling in? Ellie Carpenter. They've been amazing, you know, it's like they've been here for ages and I always say that is we're always so blessed with the people that we sign because ultimately you sign the person before the player
Starting point is 00:04:06 and they're all amazing characters I think they all had some as I was really impressed with Liv at the Euros, I thought she was class and a really exciting signing for us and gives, you know, great competition in there with hand so I think that's needed as well
Starting point is 00:04:22 and I think she's, yeah, like I said, she's coming and just got straight in like Ellie's the same she's so bubbly like just super energetic like really really good character to have within the group and we've got so many different personalities now we've got like players that are quiet and you have to like bring them out the shell a little bit and then you've got you know players that Ellie that have just come in and are really bubbly and just like really refreshing and just like mixed it up a little bit and obviously class on the pitch like I've never seen someone get up and down the pitch as fast as her like she'll literally
Starting point is 00:04:54 be defending the box and then she's rap isn't she? Mate, pre-season games, I'm watching, I'm like, how have you just got from there to there? Like, you've just made a clearance, and then she's literally up the other end crossing the ball. I remember playing against her in America, and I was just like, how are you so quick? Honestly, she literally, like, shifts up that pitch.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Like, I've never seen anything like it, and, like, a fantastic player to have. And then, obviously, we've got Mara as well. Great prospect and, like, attacking ability. And everyone's just brought something different, which has been so, so nice. yeah it's been lovely to have new faces getting to know new people
Starting point is 00:05:30 that is kind of the beauty of football I don't know if you agree but so many people come and go it's sad when people leave but then meeting new people learning about them the background new stories like it's kind of nice yeah I like it as well but massive first game Friday night
Starting point is 00:05:47 we'll all be watching and then it's followed by the Daily Brightness podcast Darby Chelsea Villa Come on, Villa. Up the Villa. Up the Chels.
Starting point is 00:06:00 I think it's one of my favourite games, you know. Yeah, I bet it was. Last time, and you sat on my head. All I was thinking is Millie do not laugh, Sonia's going to kill you. She's going to think you're messing around and not taking it seriously. And I'm like, no, like, anyone that knows us knows we go in. But this is what makes me laugh, right? When we play each other, all the fans think like, if you score, remember that game,
Starting point is 00:06:19 and I refer to it every time when you scored, and everyone was like, I saw Millie smile. She smiled. She definitely smiled when Rachel scored. And I was like, no, I didn't. I didn't, like, just because it's against my best mate, like, I don't want you to score and I don't want you to win. But it just makes me giggle.
Starting point is 00:06:35 I love standing side by side in the tunnel, though. I think that's... I was like a special moment last year, wasn't it? Like, I think it happened twice, didn't it? Home and away. Yeah, it was really, really nice. And it's just like a surreal, like, almost like full circle moment. It's like, we started...
Starting point is 00:06:49 Yeah. It started from the bottom now, we're here. We've literally got a picture as well. Someone's got a picture of us shaking hands, like, doing the coin toss. I love it. It's one of my favourite pictures. But how's your preseason been? How are you feeling?
Starting point is 00:07:00 Yeah, good. It's gone really well, actually. I think, obviously, it's hard, isn't it, when new faces are coming in? And, like, adjusting to having them in, but also they're coming at different times. So obviously, depending on how far they get into your roses when they come back.
Starting point is 00:07:16 But, yeah, everyone that's come in has added so much, so much to the team on and off the pitch. And it's a... Nexy! Little Dexy! She's back from a walk. But yeah, I think everyone's added something different. Like, we lost a lot of good players and really good people last year.
Starting point is 00:07:34 So replacing them was going to be hard. And like you say, you never replace them. But they've come in and brought their energy. And it's really added to us both on and off the pitch. So it's exciting for sure. Have you set yourself any targets? Obviously, I know strikers like to set goals and stuff like that. But what are your targets for this season?
Starting point is 00:07:53 Beat Chelsea. No, I don't know. score a hat-trick against Chelsea. No, I'm joking. I think, look, I think we obviously last year ended this, it was a very turbulent year, like not shining away from the fact that it wasn't a great year, but the last five games of the season,
Starting point is 00:08:08 I'm hoping set us up into good stead to come into this season. And, you know, I think just building off the back of last season will be massive for us. We've, again, we've started new players. We've held on to a lot of good players and good people. So, you know, obviously our manager is still here. So she's, it's been nice to think to have her in from preseason
Starting point is 00:08:28 because obviously she came in January. Yeah. So the continuity of that was nice. Familiar face, familiar information. But yeah, I think we're all really excited now. I think the same as you. She's just, thank God, preseason's over. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:08:41 How's our little Ellie robot? We've got to give her a mention. Our little gem. Yeah, she's led, obviously really, really tough few years for her. Yeah. And I don't think people will fully understand until you've, like, properly heard a story. I sat with her, we went for a team meal the other night
Starting point is 00:08:56 and I sat next one and she just sort of just laid it all out like what happened and what she's been through and credit to her the fact she's come back and can do what she's doing and play amazingly well. You know, she's one of the nicest people ever and it's great to have her back into a place that she's loving football again and I think just for her is to just get back to that and like knowing that her health is okay
Starting point is 00:09:20 and yeah, she's lucky enough to sit next to me in the changing rooms every year. day so she's reunited with a familiar Yorkshireman so but yeah she's she's class i love i've not got a bad word to say about ellie at all and just really happy for her she's literally the best human yeah i'm just really happy for her to be back and healthy and enjoying her life and that's what it's all about isn't it so yeah definitely really happy to have her back in england and you know as a teammate again oh i'm buzzing for her just before we go on to speaking about your first game which is brighton i think just
Starting point is 00:09:54 that in itself is a strong message for everyone on the outside that not everything is rosy and sunshine and although our poker faces might be amazing at times people go through shit on a daily basis and we still get all we still train we still put our bodies through hell and yeah i think it's just it just highlights yet again that we are humans and we do go through rough patches and you know to for it to be able to come out the other end and and be back playing now and like said finding a love again for the sport I think is amazing but I think there's such a strong message there
Starting point is 00:10:27 for everyone to be aware of again because I think it's becoming more and more like when the pressure is coming higher you've got your personal things, your health I think you know players are starting to experience more and more and maybe been a little bit more open about it so
Starting point is 00:10:42 but anyway buzzing for a so so happy Brighton first game how's the team? Yeah I think obviously Brighton's never an easy game we ended with them my last game of last season so starting with them and start of this one
Starting point is 00:10:56 is always exciting the first game obviously it's away not at home so you always want to be at home on your first game of the season but no I think
Starting point is 00:11:05 Brighton right side lost a few players but gained a few players have obviously got Michelle IG Man back in there on loan which is great for them
Starting point is 00:11:13 no it's definitely going to be a tough game but I think everyone's just ready and wearing to go now you know it's like it's like the anticipation of the season starting getting over the line of preseason
Starting point is 00:11:21 getting rid of all the running and actually just concentrating on what we want to do. So, yeah, no, look, I think every game this season is going to be a difficult one. But, yeah, I think everyone's just, like, absolutely buzzing to get going now. I think it's going to be a super competitive season because so many teams have, like, there's a lot of change. There's been a lot of movement, like, new players coming in, players changing teams. I think it, I love it when that happens because it makes it, it makes it interesting. The teams that you played last year are not the same.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Like, it's completely different. Well, I think that's exactly, like, what it's going to think. felt like with London City going on to them. I think obviously they are the new kids on the block and they've made some big, big signings this summer and they're obviously, yeah, statement signings. They're sending messages to the rest of the league that they're not to be messed with and, you know, they're not...
Starting point is 00:12:09 I've seen Aslani, did you see a quote earlier? She was... I can't remember the question that she got asked, but it was just like the ambition, basically, and it was to not be a mid-table team. Like, they'll see a successful season as being top four. So I think, like you said, along with the statement signings, the mentality of that team is not just to come up
Starting point is 00:12:27 and compete, but it's to be a top four, which I love, I love that. Like, I rate it so much. And I think when you're coming up, that's what you have to do. You have to not just come up and survive. It's to compete and challenge and setting the ambitions that high is, I don't see anything wrong with that. I agree. I like that mentality, but also do you think it puts a bit of a pressure target on their back?
Starting point is 00:12:51 Like, it's hard to come up. 100% No matter how many signings you've made this summer no matter what you've done like coming up from the lower league is not easy and it's been proven in the last few years
Starting point is 00:13:00 like most teams we've got to make sure all those signings play well together that's another thing sign they've got to jail they've got 11 new arrivals this summer first time in the in the WSL like top fly
Starting point is 00:13:11 yeah that's a difficult thing to deal with like a lot of different personalities a lot of new faces a lot of you know think about the players that were there last year they've got a whole new team, literally. It's not easy, but, you know, I think they have, I like the statements that they're sending
Starting point is 00:13:26 out. I like that they're positive and, you know, they do want to, you know, they do want to finish on the top four. And I think that's, that's a great mentality to have. But I do think that it's a tough old league. It's a big challenge coming up. Yeah. And also, what I was just going to say is, on the flip side, we're talking about, like, top
Starting point is 00:13:46 international, like, a salon is, like, a top international, like, player. So it's hard for them not. to have that ambition, like, it's hard for them not to be like, we want to be top four because their level is like, that's their mentality, isn't it? It's, it's in their DNA. Do you know what I mean? They're used to play in there, like, so it's, it's a hard one. So I'm sure they'll, they've got, well, I mean, they've got a lot of experience, you know, they've got the likes of Katie Zellum, Alana Kennedy, Nikita Paris, Slarnet. So I think they do have that international experience as well to maybe manage that expectation. And yeah, I mean,
Starting point is 00:14:20 I'd love to see him come and do well because I think they'd be the first team to come up and not just survive in the league but actually. So I mean, we'll see, we'll see but it is a very, very tough league. So like you said, big statements but we want big mentality.
Starting point is 00:14:34 That's what we want. Now before we go to a short break while we've been on the topic of transfers and building up to the new season, you might remember that last week we spoke about the famous soccer donna the social media accounts. That's brilliant on all the transfers,
Starting point is 00:14:48 never seen to get it wrong. news and statistics around the women's game. I need to know who this is. Well, we've actually been in touch with Sokodona over the last few days and they sent us a message explaining how it all works and they even have a question of their own for us. Hi, Millie. Hi, Rachel. This is Laura from Socadona. Hope you guys are doing well. So Soccer Donner is a subsidiary of
Starting point is 00:15:11 Transfer Market who are focusing on men's football. And about 15 years ago, they decided they won the launch a page dedicated to women's football. Transfer market has always been focusing on deals and rumors and statistics so naturally as a subsidiary we would take that over because it's basically one company. 15 years ago when Socorona was created the reception wasn't really good because the interest wasn't there yet. We've seen a spike in interest around 2017. That's when people started to engage with us and follow us more. we want to create a visibility that the sport deserves and we want to give the sport,
Starting point is 00:15:53 the players, the clubs, the media attention they deserve. And my question for you guys is how do players feel like when there's a rumor circulating on social media while there are still talks with the new club? So when they realize people have found out about their move, how do players feel about that? it depends where the rumour comes from like obviously there's a lot of talk there's a lot of discussions around it a lot with rumours everywhere flying about
Starting point is 00:16:22 but I think the reliability of the source is the most important thing which obviously soccer not Donna has always seemed to pull through with a lot of very accurate rumours and transfers so I'd love to know the start
Starting point is 00:16:37 of how many correct and how many wrong because I don't think I've seen many that have been wrong equally I'd love to know how they know how yeah sorry I know that's something that we'll never find out but no I think it's good though
Starting point is 00:16:52 I think it does create that sort of visibility that she was talking about like it's nice to see it sometimes because although sometimes I'm a bit wary of like the money you know it'll be like Millie Bright worth and you're like how have you worked that out where have you got that from
Starting point is 00:17:08 I know I get a bit anxious that I'm going to see my name up there but no I think it's I think it's quite excited I think it's quite exciting seeing the things that they produce because it just gets, it's just interesting. It's interesting information. It gets people talking. It makes the women's football.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Creates conversation for sure. Yeah, exactly. 100%. Keep doing your stuff. Soccer donna. What I would say as well is one thing that I really love in the women's game is when it says like a player and then it's like the move and instead of it being like worth or moving, it's like a little pregnant emoji.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Yeah, a little push chair. I love it. I'm like, oh, where's she going? No, she's breast. I love it. No, she's just pregnant. I absolutely love it. I just think like it's such like a change in like mentality that that is such a normal thing now in the women's game. And like, I don't know. It just makes me smile when I see it. I'm like, oh, I love that. That's so sweet. I was just thinking about that. And that's funny. But yeah, thank you for that input. Soccer Donna. We appreciate you and keep up all the good work. But if you could just let us know where you actually get your info from, that would be great. Thank you. And why your name's not Donna. Change your name.

Welcome back to the rest of football Daily Brightness. We've been chatting about all things to be a cell in the first half, but for the second half, we're going to answer one of the listeners, Agony and emails.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Do you want to read it, Mill? Here we go, yes. Hey, Millie and Rach, I watched your last episode and something you said about loneliness as a footballer really struck a chord with me. I know it's a difficult world, but I'm a nurse in the NHS and often feel the same way. My shifts are so out of sync with friends I went to uni with
Starting point is 00:19:18 and I find myself spending a lot of time alone on the sofa feeling cut off. Oh, that hurts my heart. Come round to mine. Yeah, come and have a cup of darling. I'd love to make more friends, but it feels so much harder as an adult. My days are often just work, home, sleep, repeat and sometimes I can go days without a proper conversation.
Starting point is 00:19:37 That's made my social anxiety worse and living in a rural part of England doesn't help either. Do you have any advice on making friends as an adult or even just some wise words on dealing with that sense of isolation? Social media makes it look like everyone else has these full buzzing lives with their friends and family but I don't think that's always the reality agreed. I really admire your friendship and the way you show up for each other.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Your podcast honestly feels like a lifeline at times like having a group of friends in the room with me. Oh my God, my heart. Same. What the hell? Thank you so much for that and please keep it going. Best wishes, Chloe. I've actually got goosebumps everywhere on my body. Well, first of all, Chloe,
Starting point is 00:20:15 thank you so much for sending that in because I'm sure that wasn't easy. Second of all, it isn't easy to make friends in this world as an adult when you work a full-time job. Absolutely not. It's so difficult. Like, we live in a world where we have our teammates,
Starting point is 00:20:31 we have, you know, they're almost your home away from her, they become your family. But I think for me, it is so important to have friends, outside of work because you need an escape. Like when I first moved to where I live now, my first priority was I want to go to the local pub.
Starting point is 00:20:50 Like I want to like just meet new people just because I found it hard and I know you'll do the same, Millie. Like trusting people's intentions when you're in the limelight or you're in the spotlight. Yeah, like why do you want to know me? That's exactly my point. I go, what do you want from me? What do you want from me?
Starting point is 00:21:08 And I've had to like really let my go. down in order to let to let people in because you're the same as me like it's really hard to trust people it's really hard to let them in it's really hard to understand their intentions but as difficult as it was like i went to the pub and had coax like i went to the pub and had a like do you know what i mean like i didn't go to get hammered like i'm an athlete and that was often socialized times where people would frown upon me being in the pub and i'm like you know what no like i grew up in an environment where it was very pub culture related and that's how you made friends and that's where some of my best friends have come from. And it wasn't easy. Like,
Starting point is 00:21:44 when I got home from training, I was like, oh, I just want to sit on this over. But you do become a part of, like, isolation. And it's so easy to fall into that trap. Creature of habit. I lived, obviously, away from home for a long time. And I had a couple of friends outside of football. And I was like, it was the best thing for me. But I just couldn't, sometimes I'd just be like, well, I've got nobody here. Like, I've not got my people here. And it's so hard. Like, I know the worst case scenario, I could drive to London to come and see you, like if I needed you, do you know what I mean? So what I would say is put yourself out there a little bit as difficult as it may be with these shifts and your patterns and stuff like that, but we can tell you about
Starting point is 00:22:23 Tinder. It's not just for people to fall in love, it's the people to be able to find a friend and find new people in your area. And yeah, I think that's, yeah, I mean, you can speak on that mill but I that's my take on that I think it's really difficult to put yourself out there and be vulnerable and meet new people but sometimes a little hello in a pub you know sparks of a conversation and you know they're probably in your pub because they live in your area but why is it when you get older like don't you feel as you've got older like you my social anxiety has gotten worse like I'm when I'm in crowded spaces I'm like oh my god oh my god my god get me out get me out get me out like I don't know why but as a kid I was like yeah
Starting point is 00:23:05 like I'd be so like I'd bring everyone together whereas now you get older and I'm like the comfort of your own space and like just I do think you can get in a habit as well as just I got in that and I reflected on last year and I was like holy shit what have I done with my life in that year other than play football and I know we're professional athletes
Starting point is 00:23:24 we have to sacrifice a lot but life is bigger than football life is bigger than anything so everyone deserves to live it you just have to make sure live it in the right way at times, but I do think I was a creature of a habit of just coming home and sitting on the sofa and I'd be like, oh, I'm too tired and then I wouldn't make effort and I wouldn't, and your point, Rach, that's one thing I've learnt this summer and, like, probably going through, like, where my head was at. I was like, fuck, I don't have any friends
Starting point is 00:23:51 outside of football, like, and that's another thing with football is people come and go so often, you almost have to, like, let people go a little bit and, like, yes, you're good friends you will always be friends with, but some of my friends, when we all, finished, they're all going to be all over the world. Like, I can't just pop around for a cup of tea or so you almost feel like you're losing those people, like you lose your friends when signings, like leave. Like they are family. Like we spend every day together. You build strong connections. And if they move to a different team, you have to like let go of that. But I would say that's one thing I learned. And I was like, I'm going to make a circle of friends outside
Starting point is 00:24:25 of football so that on my days off, I can go to do something completely off script, completely nothing to do with football and I feel like now I've got that I'm like I've got like a way better life balance but to your point Rach it does take effort like you you do have to to put that in and it's just finding your way of doing it clow with your work shifts my sister's a nurse so I understand that the schedule and the shifts of an absolute ballache and not the easiest but popping down to your local coffee shop or and I think you've done the first step by being vulnerable enough and opening yourself up and sending the message into us
Starting point is 00:25:01 and us being able to voice it, I think you've already taken a huge step in that journey to get yourself out of that isolation, but it is tough, and as an adult, I agree, it's way, way harder, way harder, but yeah, I think just put yourself out there, whether it's coffee, going for a war, like, don't be ashamed to do things
Starting point is 00:25:19 on your own as well, like sometimes like stepping into something a little bit uncomfortable, you never know who you're going to, who are you going to meet, who you're going to bump into. Like, someone else will be doing the exact same as you, looking for the exact same thing. And thank you for sending that in, because like Millie said, it is obviously difficult to speak about it.
Starting point is 00:25:37 But, and thank you for your kind words about the podcast. I'm glad that gives you a bit of, yeah, escape. We ain't going nowhere. So we're part of you. So we're with you, Chloe. Keep, keep listening. And thank you for all of your support. And I hope.
Starting point is 00:25:52 If anyone's listening to this and anyone knows Chloe, go and bloody speak to her because she sounds like a gorgeous human. and being. Yeah, and thank you for all you do for the NHS, like, amazing work. Massive, massive shout out to you for that. But yeah, let us know how you get on, and if you need anything else, we're always here. Daily Brancis is not
Starting point is 00:26:09 going anywhere. We are stuck together. On that note, let's go into our gratitude. My first one, actually, just off the cuff, is that message from Chloe. Because I think it's just a reminder that by not knowing anyone like by not having a connection and us being like we're strangers to chloe like she's
Starting point is 00:26:30 a stranger to us yet what she said has like made our day and that's definitely made me smile and if we can help her you don't necessarily need to know each other and have a connection to help one another so i just think it's just a lesson in life that little things go a long way and make a big big difference and hopefully we've made her feel a little bit less lonely but yeah my first one i'm grateful for that i'm grateful for kind words we're always looking for new friends are we bestie always always anyone's welcome just don't be too serious yeah i agree with you i'm not going to say that one as mine because you have but i could echo what you just said i think it's really nice and it's a nice reminder that what we're doing is helping other people i think that's
Starting point is 00:27:12 massive for both of both you and i yeah um let's go a little bit lighter my first thing i'm grateful for is this look at this thing oh best i've got one in green oh my god it is the best thing ever but this was like a fibre from Aldi honestly do you know what the best thing is

Starting point is 00:27:37 making me drink so much and yeah so I'm grateful for my gorgeous lilac perfect I'm gonna do two
Starting point is 00:27:43 I'm grateful for the feeling of fresh bedding I know you'll like that one oh my god best it I had mine on last night oh
Starting point is 00:27:52 I've just changed my bedding I can't Wait to get in bed. Please tell me your eye on your bedding after you've washed it. It depends if it's been hung on something heated or if it's not then, yeah. Oh my God. Like, if it's super crinkled, then no, but I don't make it a habit. You know why?
Starting point is 00:28:08 Because it drives me insane, because I know then I'll get in a place where I'm like, I've got to iron, it, got to iron, got to iron. When you buy a new bedding, because I've got a thing about, I keep getting new bedding, but like I need, like, I've just told myself now, stop it. Stop it. But it's get, it gets better than more you wash it as well, doesn't it? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:28:50 That's a great one I'm gonna do two more One is tea and biscuits, right? What biscuits, though? At the minute, chocolate malted milks. Don't say rich tea, because they're the worst biscuits in the world. Don't even get me started. Sarah came home to the day, I said,
Starting point is 00:29:05 I want chocolate malted milks and plain malted milks. She came home, she said, oh, there was no plain one, so I got your rich tea. I was like, no, cancelled, she's cancelled. She was like, rich tea? It's like cardboard. I was like, do you know, they're just like one dunkers? Can't they have a night in a tea.
