We're back.
We've had so many funny, funny messages from you all.
The podcasts going out recently have been really funny like well
i'm glad you all found it really funny because i'm not sure i did but um we've had some really
fun replies from you all we had a lovely girl saying um you absolutely adored the podcast
i love the friendship and i look forward to the podcast every week and i feel like i'm having a
conversation with friends i just wanted to say to sophie after listening to today's podcast i have the exact same issue
with my bladder i have to go at least once usually like three times before i eat and sleep oh my god
and her boyfriend always slags her off but it's definitely a mental thing and i'm and i'm not
uncomfortable until i've gone multiple times glad to i'm not the only one who has a weird habit
i'm telling you it's how funny oh my god
it's getting but you must actually also need the loot like it's not like in your squeeze
like really drop it out oh my god yeah yeah yeah before before food there's nothing that comes out
sometimes i just i have to go to the motion of going to the bathroom oh my god how weird
yeah it must be no it's maybe it's not an anxiety maybe it's just like a like a formality that you have to do like before like an ocd yeah almost yeah like turn the lights yeah it is
interesting i wonder if i mean it must be a common thing if someone else is going to say
someone else i know have the same thing why don't you just say you you don't i just hold the loon
this is that's my problem i'm like i can't will it I'll just hold it in
that's honestly my worst nightmare unless I'm going somewhere so like before I leave here like
I'll make sure I go I I'm like empty before I like get in the car Jenny because I don't be
uncomfortable so at a meal that you would just sit and let it brew yeah I would just wait until
I'd finished my meal and in this in your sleep can you just sleep and I've never it's never
waking me up in my sleep forever surely you just don't drink enough water no I've just I think it's never woken me up from my sleep forever surely you just don't drink enough water no I think it's normal to like
sleep through the night
I don't think there's one night in my life
I've not gone to the bed in the middle of the night
never ever wakes me up
in the morning I'm busting
your teeth are looking bright
they look really small don't they
my Invisaligns move them up
they look different
I don't like it but she said the end, you can just pull them down
and move them into position.
It's pulled your teeth up.
Yeah.
Move them up.
No, your teeth do look really different.
They look, like, shorter, don't they?
Some.
They're like mine now.
This size shorter and they go longer.
Stop it.
Are they wrong?
No, but that's my smile.
I've never noticed that.
You always look like you're dead.
Like it was...
Not that they're not dead straight,
but as in,
don't make me feel more barren.
I still got like loads to go.
I think I've got about,
so we're just talking about Invisalign guys.
I think I've got about 10 more retainers to go.
Oh,
blimey.
Got a long old stint still.
I'm out of that stint.
Are you?
Yeah, I just,
I slept in them and that was me done.
I had a bit of bonding at the bottom.
Just on one tooth.
It was actually just a chipped tooth and then they fixed it.
So guys, today we are going to be talking about dating app dilemmas.
I feel like that's kind of...
Some juicy dilemmas from dating apps.
Yeah, that's kind of the way dating's going now, isn't it?
Like that is just like the 21st century.
21st century.st century it's so it's i also feel
like more so now since we have obviously been in lockdowns and stuff it's like the only way people
can even like meet each other and stuff like that through social media apps it's the way forward
it's the future well anyway we've got some real juicy dilemmas for you guys so are you ready

am on but i am a tinder bride i cannot believe she's a tinder bride that is like so impressive
met my husband to be in august 2016 on the app we are potentially waiting our third wedding
awaiting our third wedding date in september after postponing in September last year. And March of this year due to COVID.
That is really sad.
Keep your fingers crossed for me, girls.
Oh, my God.
Bless your soul.
I feel like, I mean, you're not alone at how many people have postponed there.
I mean, I know two couples that weddings that we've postponed.
I was going to go to a wedding in the bra.
You got COVID.
Oh, my God.
I know.

That is awful because
so awful that's like oh god i i mean my heart goes out to you but you know it will happen you're
still you've still got the love of your life by your side and you will get married at some point
that's why a lot of people are just like going and having the kids now because they're like i
can't wait for the wedding i'd rather just have a kid yeah loads of people i can see have just got
honestly it is the baby boom isn't it it really how many there yeah loads of people I can see have just got honestly it is the baby boom

at that age
where it's starting to happen
I mean have you had this
recently
not one person I know
is pregnant
you are like so many people
at my school are pregnant
that's mental
I know
imagine me having a baby now
sometimes I do think
oh it would be nice
wouldn't it
it would be nicer than you
haven't you're like oh my god this is so hard start with a puppy oh 100 my mum always says
that she kind of wishes she had to do a puppy first because it really teaches you like yeah
the responsibility i mean obviously it's not the same but like it is a good starting point like the
best you can get to practice yeah he usually thought oh you get those little dolls that are like fuck you know how chris hughes had on love island like they all had i think everyone i think didn't chris
hughes like call his like matilda or something and really loved it i can't remember that i know
and then it became like sort of i know that they give them those like oh yeah maybe you're right
have you been watching that violin you know what so i watched the first
two apps and i wasn't really into it yeah no me i was like none of them have that much chemistry
none of them really seem to like each other they all just sort of like making do like oh yeah i've
been put with this person let's just get on with it but now there's these two new girls have gone
in so i watched last night's because um harry went out to watch the football when he was on his way
back i was like oh i might as well just put Love Island on now Seems to be
Spicing up a little bit
These two new girls seem to have come in and stirred up
Some shindig
I actually prefer Too Hot to Handle
It's really good
Do you? Well Damien producer
I know! Which one? The first or second?
The recent one
Oh okay I've watched both series now
She said at four which
must have already been she said something really spicy happened on that one did it anyway so
anyone they're all the same to me let's know what you guys think um so this isn't a dilemma
but somebody wrote in my ex keeps popping up in the people you should meet category on hinge
oh my god that's so awful do you know what i'm still on this app
called raya and loads of you're not i don't know how to get it off i deleted it apparently it
doesn't like get ever get rid of it i'm still on it and everyone's like messaging me about it like
people always kept saying sophie's on raya like as it's a big deal they messaging jamie like by
the way yeah at the beginning when we first started getting together and I was like,
I don't even have that app and now to this day
if anyone sees me on there,
I still don't.
Guys,
Sophie's secretly dating
online on Reddit.
Who did I ever message?
Oh yeah,
give us the goss.
Go on,
any celebs?
Oh,
I think I know who that is.
Those of you who don't know,
Ray is like,
it's like a platform,
it's like Tinder
but for celebrities,
right?
It is that,
isn't it?
Yeah, well no it isn't like as in like anyone has it now but you have to kind of sign up be like
recommended oh but the funny thing is if you like so much just screenshot somebody so if you see
someone like if i saw like i saw harry styles on it and all these people if you screenshot it you
get disqualified you're banned oh my god and then oh my god i do have the funniest story to tell you
so i went to go get my nails done yesterday this is god i do have the funniest story to tell you so i
went to go get my nails done yesterday this is so off topic guys but i have to tell you because
you'll die i actually feel like we had someone write in and tell us a story so similar anyway
they make my appointment was at 12 it was like half 12 still hadn't seen anyone i didn't complain
but i was just a bit like oh this is a bit annoying yeah anyway the guy comes over really close to me and he goes
I'm so sorry about it I'm so sorry about the wait let me buy you a drink and I went oh no it's
honestly it's okay don't worry like stop flattering me I've got a boyfriend I basically said to him
don't worry I've got a boyfriend let me buy you a drink is my nail color that I have every time I
had to take a photo of it because I was like,
no one will believe me.
And he was like,
what?
Wait,
let me buy you a drink.
So he was coming up to you.
He was like,
so sorry for the wait.
Is it?
Let me buy you a drink.
I'm getting ready for you now.
Oh my.
I'm dead.
I went,
Oh no,
honestly,
you don't have to do that.
Like,
stop flirting with me.
That's so inappropriate. Did you actually say the words? I've got a boyfriend. I was about to, but I was, I went, oh, no, honestly, you don't have to do that. Like, stop flirting with me. That's so inappropriate.
Did you actually say the words, I've got a boyfriend?
I was about to, but I went red.
And I, like, he knew.
He was like, oh, no.
And I was like, oh, my God, you mean the nail varnish?
Oh, my God, that's so funny.
He was like, well, she's so confused.
I know, terrible.
What a ridiculous thing to call a nail colour.
That is so confusing.
Thank God you didn't go i'm really sorry but i actually
have my nearly did i was so taken aback and i also looked him a bit like oh no go away and he
sort of clocked on to like oh he's like oh shit she thinks she was like oh no did that happen
someone or like have you i don't think so oh great just me now just me he's an idiot anyway
brings us back to talking about dilemmas because that's a big dilemma of mine this week
okay so let's get on to a dilemma then okay should i read the first one
looks like a cheesy one hi girls love the podcast and here is my dating app dilemma
i was recently catching up for dinner with two friends I haven't seen for ages.
We were catching up on each other's love lives.
And I explained how I've been seeing this guy from Hinge for a few months now.
Said his name and how we'd spent loads of time together, been on a load of nice dates.
And I was beginning to catch feelings.
One of the friends then texted me the next day explaining how she'd been talking to the same guy
but didn't know how to bring it up at the table the previous night.
Firstly, should I call him out on it and expose what he's been doing?
So he doesn't do it again or just straight up goes him.
Secondly, am I within my rights to even have a go at him,
given we haven't had a chat about being exclusive yet,
but he behaved like I was his girlfriend.
Oh my God. Hang on on so let's just go back
they've been for a few months now you're a few months long oh no that's not like they've been
on two three dates a few months and they spent loads of time together been on loads of nice dates
i'm sorry i'm sorry you could have called him out on it i would just be like lol i think you know
my friend and then ghost him see you later
maybe give him a chance
I think maybe give him a chance because
I mean I've never really done this
whole like dating thing so I'm not sure but
looking at it from a very
platonic
no
I don't know what point of view I'm going for here but
I think just trying to play devil's advocate
I think he if you haven devil's advocate I think he
if you haven't had the conversation maybe he's just thinking
like oh it's just casual we're dating
she's probably dating somebody too like it's so fine
but I don't know how intense
your relationship is like have you guys slept together
I mean probably if you've been dating for months
but like boys do you think
unless you're unless they've
like unless you've spoken about it like technically
he isn not doing
anything wrong i think you need to yeah and we do we can't really like be hypocrites because we
always do say to everyone like don't just put all your bags in one basket if you're dating someone
date other people yeah that's true but it's just it's quite funny that it's like your friend for a
couple months and it's like your friend that's really awkward because now he's essentially gonna choose yeah but you don't know how he might have literally just been talking to
the other girl when she said they've been doing the same thing the same thing what an
how do you have the time i'm impressed well like more so like surely he'd realize they were friends
like can't you see that social media yeah oh? See them on social media, yeah. Oh, God. I think you 100% need to bring it up.
100%.
And just be like, look, I know we haven't had the conversation, but...
I just may be saying, like, a joke away from the fact that you are actually dating.
Because, I mean, you're dating my best friend.
She told me everything.
So I don't know if there's another one.
Like, there might be even more girls.
I would kind of make a joke out of it.
See how he takes it and then like
be really cool just go off and think what you want to do on your own rather than like
showing him any emotion it's like i wouldn't give away how you're feeling so if you're feeling sad
i wouldn't be like yeah because you might freak him out yeah just be super chilled about it and
then go away and on your own decide whether once you've heard his response it could either be flat out absolutely no or if he's got like a really valid excuse you can just go away and on your own decide whether once you've heard his response it could either be flat
out absolutely no or if he's got like a really valid excuse you can just go away and think about
it i kind of think at this point if he doesn't say like you know what oh my god i'm so sorry
like i was dating multiple girls but i actually really like you and want to like be exclusive
just to you because ultimately you don't want to keep dating this guy if he's going to carry on
because then it's going to go on five six months you're gonna be like yeah he's gonna say that
yeah he's got to really like make a decision so i think you have to tell him otherwise
it's also going to become like a weird thing between you and your friend like who's gonna
get him like it's really she slept with him as well that's kind of gross i know i mean not that
like literally i can't i can't believe that it's been going on for months and neither of you
realized before yeah you're both very cool yeah i would have told maybe they're not best best
friends super close yeah but you 100 need to have a conversation because that is a
big old dilemma that is a real juicy dilemma i'm sorry i mean one thing i would just say is just
laugh at it like and also yeah don't the fact that you caught him like red-handed as well like
he's quite imagine if you got the girl to not sit at the table imagine if you ask him and he goes like no i'm not dating anyone else i promise
oh maybe i think you should try and catch him out yeah i think because then you know what he's like
anyway and then he's allowing you know not to trust him already oh we've got him we've got him
we've nailed him right so let's let's practice conversation i'm the girl you're the boy all right
by the way or should we call him ben hi ben so i just wanted to is that how you'd address it i'm the girl you're the boy all right by the way or should we call him ben hi ben
so i just wanted to is that how you'd address it i'm so blunt no but the conversation needs
to happen i'm not going to put my all into the acting but you get the gist yeah okay so

just wanted to let you know that i'm not actually going to be dating anyone else now like i really
quite like you i'm enjoying the time that we're spending together like how are you feeling do you
want to carry on dating other people like what's like because it has been going on for a couple
months and like i don't really want to waste for me waste my time i would just be honest
i would then see what he said oh i think so it was funny someone asked me if i was dating the
other day and i kind of realized that i'm not i'm where i'm sort of only dating you
see as a response he'll be like haha imagine if he's like oh my god same i really like you i'm
not seeing anybody else then you go then you literally ghost that motherfucker and you don't tell him that.
Yeah, because he needs to just be honest with you.
Because if he's not doing anything wrong, which he's not really technically, you know.
But once he's lied, he is, and you caught him, and you know once a liar.
Once a liar, always a liar.
Is that the, okay, where is it?
I think that's true, though.
Like, if he's going to lie this early on.
Oh, but then boys, they do. There's always a couple niggles that you've got to get through early on. but then there's always a couple needles we can't we're not straightforward we say one thing
and then say it now you know it's all circumstantial though it really is yeah it really is so you know
I think go with your gut see what the reaction and then come back to us and follow this up because
I need to know we need to know what the hell's gonna happen okay right next dilemma love the podcast thank you we
love you so recently i matched with a guy on a dating app he seemed cool funny and asked me out
for a drink so i said yes why not 100 i was ready to go but half an hour before we were meant to
meet he cancelled uh saying he had to stay on at work and that he was really sorry I was all ready
to go and had kept that day free for us to meet up brackets I'm a busy woman he's since asked me
up again but he cancelled on me half an hour before our first date does that mean he's not should I give him another chance? That is one of those.
That is a... I don't even know what to say.
I would, you know,
give it another chance
if he literally could.
You've got to give someone
the benefit of the doubt.
It could have been a genuine excuse.
Yeah, I do agree.
And if it's half an hour before
then it is quite likely
that literally his boss came in
last minute and was like you've got to do this but why couldn't he have just been like is it
all right if you push it back an hour it's not like he's gonna be in the fucking office all night
oh he might have literally had like the shits or something i didn't want to say that or be hanging
out his ass and didn't want to do like a bad about half an hour before it's like a bit
i don't know i mean it could be a legit excuse but then to me I'm like why wouldn't you just
be like oh is it all right if we meet an hour later my boss has been such dick but
he's asked her again why if he didn't want to yeah I don't think he would yeah that's true
unless he had like another another option that came up and he probably did though but they've
not met so she's got to give him the chance I say you go for it if he if he does something again or it's a shit date then so what you got like a nice little dinner he had a drink out and you
you didn't lose anything but if you don't go what if he could be your prince charming yeah he could
be the one you know what i would do for the next day make him book something just a drink i would
do something short you don't want to be stuck there yeah so you say i've
got dinner afterwards but with my friends i've got dinner drink before and you make sure that
you actually arrange a dinner with your friends then you're not wasting because god forbid if he
does cancel you're still ready you're still gonna go out have a fun time yeah you're still gonna go
out have a nice glass of wine yeah that's a good idea so right plan of action you choose a date
you go sounds great but i've got dinner that night
afterwards but great to meet for a drink before yeah you get on your girl group and you text those
girls you text your mom you text your sister you text anyone and you arrange a nice dinner
and then you're already excited to go out if he if he goes again his loss you go and have a nice
yeah and if he does bonus you get to go out and
you might not like him anyway but at least you know you know you you've not lost out exactly
i think that's a really good um solution oh my god we've got it we've got yeah
we're like whizzing through them oh yeah
we've got a real long juicy one here oh i love a juicy one you love the long ones a few months
ago i matched with a guy on tinder and we started talking we spoke every day for two weeks and went
on our first date we really hit it off and have now been seeing each other for for four months
wow bear in mind we're both expats in a foreign country i've lived here for a few years where
he's only been here for a few months.
Quite early on he asked me what I was looking for when I joined Tinder. I told him I was ideally looking for a relationship. He then said he wasn't ready for a relationship as his life wasn't as
still isn't stable. He's just moved to a new country and has had to sort out work and a work
permit plus generally adjusting to a different culture. he's had far less work on during lockdown he's also hoping to maybe get permanent residency in
another country and has loads of paperwork to organize for that that's just a maybe and wouldn't
happen until next year so he's quite stressed at the moment he did say to me that he wishes he'd
met me when he was in his home country because he'd be in the right headspace for a relationship
i said i understood and although i'd hoped to find a relationship i was open to other things too i also said i was happy
with what we had and that we could see where things go we've also had a couple of conversations
about what to call each other we settled on my date person i'm seeing oh for god's sake
am i foolish for secretly hoping he'll change his mind
and decide he is ready for a relationship?
I am mostly happy with how things are,
but I want him to make more of an effort.
Recently, I feel I've been initiating
more and more conversations and meetups.
Nah, sack him off.
He always comes to mind as his place is tiny
and he has a roommate.
When I told him this,
he blamed it on stress and lack of work,
writes about his work permit. He said he doesn't like burdening me with these issues and feels like a bit of a down at the
moment still i want more of a commitment i recently turned 30 and what i was worried about finding the
right person and settling down am i wasting my time or should i continue to enjoy what i have
and see what happens i'm scared to ask him again about his thoughts from becoming serious easy peasy lemon squeezy you're just dating there's no commitment date other people still
you don't have to throw it away yeah scare him and i think and i'd let him know that you're dating
other people because and i'd let him know you're 30 and that's what you want and yeah you can't
you don't have enough time to wait around for someone that doesn't want to commit to a relationship
and figure out where he's going to live i mean if he doesn't even think that he's going to be living in that country until for that
long then it's not going to be a long-term proper relationship anyway because he's going to be
moving to another country you know yeah you've got a barrel that yeah i do but potentially she
would like fall in love and want to move with him but i really don't think he's not committing like i would just i'm like no sorry i would just probably really take a step back i wouldn't say
i wouldn't even address that with him because it doesn't seem like he's like that on it anyway so
i'm not sure he'd be like what's going on between us i just think if he was dropped dead in love
with you and he was like this is the girl i want to spend the rest of my life with i'm going to commit
we'll make it work if i have to move we'll make it work yeah but selfishly i think perhaps like
there's no harm in her if she's enjoying the time while she's looking for the next right guy she can
still go out for dinners with him or have a sunday snuggle like do you know what i mean i do feel like
if you're constantly feeling like you're the one messaging him and asking him yeah yeah that's what I mean I wouldn't make
I wouldn't make the effort with him anymore I go out I do your own thing I would sort of like
keep your doors open like want to attract new people into your life however if you're not doing
anything on a Sunday and he asked to go for a movie I would say oh my god it's the worst thing
to do ever like do it if you want to selfishly but i wouldn't be putting your eyes on your basket i definitely would say i don't think
he's gonna change and i don't think he's ready and i don't think he's gonna ask you to be his
girlfriend anytime soon the fact that you've had a conversation about him like what should we call
each other and what did they what did he date person i mean just come on like no that's actually
quite offensive yeah it is to any boys out there, honestly, like, just grow up.
Yeah, grow up.
Like, I'm either your girlfriend or I'm not, you big idiot.
Yeah, Jesus Christ.
Well, anyway, so he's confirmed to you that, you know, you're not girlfriend, boyfriend.
So I do think, as Sophie said, go out on a date.
Don't make the effort with him anymore.
And that could make him change his mind and be like, oh, shit, what have I lost here?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
Make his balls sweat a bit. don't be so easily available yeah so i would really stop reaching out to him if he reaches out to him fine you fine see how you feel but go out and do your own thing
and try and forget about him i would and if you are with him i would just i would bear in mind
and just have it there in your head you
know he doesn't want a relationship he doesn't know where he's going to be living he might be
moving to another country in a year whenever don't let yourself be like lulled into a false sense of
security like oh i can change his mind i can make him feel you you need to really like keep like
yeah don't don't be one of those girls and i hate that brutally but
yeah we've all been there he's gonna change for me yeah they don't they don't they will change when
if they change they change and that he'll have done it by now unfortunately yeah got a bit of
tough love but anyway honey look hot girl summer it is hot girl summer and you know what 30 still
so young so young so many like there's
actually so many friends that are 30 that are single and they're just living life 30 is the
new isn't that like when you're meant to like fully you're in love with yourself and like be
at one with yourself and know who you really are sex in the city yeah 30 and they have the best
time and you just don't give a shit about what other people think when you're 30 you just don't care you've culled out all the negative people like everyone in your
life is there for a reason yeah quite i'm quite excited about it to be honest yeah
okay well that's actually all our dilemmas but melissa you have got a big old winch of the week
haven't you okay so this is kind of like a winch i feel like we've got a mutual winch over this topic a winch slash discussion slash winch about all men
oh it's the football guys let's just talk about the football for a minute i you know i'm really
happy for us currently when this melissa actually is really a big old fan she's calling stacker or
whatever okay so guys i am not a football gal whatsoever i've never seen a football match in
my life but obviously harry's been having it on because this is a big deal it's england i
get it like fine and also i quite like having a bit of sport on on the weekend sometime like the
tennis right now is really enjoyable anyway and obviously the football like you know it's coming
home whatever the song is that they all keep saying oh hi he's friends i'm sure jamie's friends
they're all going mad for it mad mad absolutely mad anyway so when when was the
first match that we we watched and i was like when we me and you went oh yeah yeah we went to
bluebird yeah but what which that was like this literally england might even play it was in like
the first like things that they were they were trying to get through to whatever it was like
the first like i don't know matches that't know and um i was always like i actually kind of secretly hope that england don't win just so
the boys don't go too mad because it's just god hooligan behavior the whole thing really isn't it
yes like i mean really sweet in a pandemic is that amazing i'm like you're putting us into
another lockdown guys cheers it's like all the beer sloshing over everybody let me just bend over
and lick the inside of your mouth i know it's just so ridiculous and like the people that are
clustered all together and like obviously i know that there's a lot of things are allowed now
because like obviously the restrictions have lifted and whatever but i'm still like this is
just a bit much like it's also like so much drinking a beer in such a short space of time so what's your
wind you just the football the whole thing the whole thing in general like i'm really enjoying
like i'm enjoying watching the match but it's all the stuff that comes with it like you don't like
them like they're really gonna behave yeah and like oh i'm gonna go and getting their dicks out
not like not like changing the thing i'm seeing everyone's video and there's like all these like
middle aged men
with their tattoos
their beer bellies
and it's all like
like literally
doing a helicopter
with their penis
and I'm like
what is going on
the hooligan
behaviour
and it's also like
just how intense
they all take
they take it
so freaking seriously
yeah
and where
all the conversation
is like
where are we
watching it on Sunday
where are we
watching it on Wednesday
and it's just
really quiet and Harry's like oh the boy's gonna be really upset really and i'm like oh get
over it it's a bloody football match like like i'm like what do you mean they're gonna be so upset
he's like you don't understand this is just such a big deal since 1996 i'm like what does he mean
by the boys he's in his boys or his boys football well i mean he means his boys his group of friends
but obviously he probably means every single boy in the whole nation let's be honest they will be
really everyone will be just completely shattered i i think that's a valid point i feel like we've
all got to like just smell when jamie comes back you stink like a brewery out of my bed and he's
like oh order the pizza when he got in i was like like, wow. It's also like the movie starts quite late as well. It starts 8pm, right?
Yeah, I know.
And also Sunday night.
Where are you going to watch it on Sunday?
Oh, I might go to Ruby's house and watch it from her flat.
I was like, I don't really want to.
What, just the two of you?
And Zara.
Quite sweet.
I was like, I don't really want to go out to Jack's or a dark pub where there's loads
of people screaming, going mad every time there's a school, like a school girl, a school girl like yeah yeah you know the whole thing's just like a bit intense i'm like it's good fun but
also like if we were outside for example watching it in civilized manner i'd be really happy with
that but it's like it's also because there's so many matches it's not like there's one or two and
then it's over i just say about like jumping with the crowd like if someone like jumps i mean it's like you know jumping like i can't jump like i i'm so uncoordinated i just like
end up getting elbowed in the face because i jump out of time and like i jump when everyone's going
down and like i end up just getting a black eye like that just scares me and also it's quite
embarrassing so i probably wouldn't even know like whether we've scored or not oh my god it's so funny so the one that was on that um it's so funny guys because i've been
watching every single one and the commentators like say the footballers names every time they
have the ball so i just like picked up what their names are so quick um harry kane used the like the
captain whatever he was doing the penalty that he took the penalty and was like shooting for the
girl here she is she's going i that coy about knowing the deets.
I was watching it
and he kicked it
and like the goalie
like stopped it with his hands
and I looked down at my phone
straight away
and I was like,
oh,
I've missed it.
And then he re-kicked it in
and got the goal
and I then heard the,
everyone went,
wah!
And I was like,
what happened?
I was like,
we missed it.
And then I saw the replay
and I was like,
oh,
okay.
So I don't watch that intently but like
you're still you're a bit of a glory watcher I mean as in like you're a glory fan like you're
not like a true you don't know what's going on but you're like no I always think you're kind of
not because the whole football thing like isn't really my vibe anyway so now we keep winning and
it turns into a busy night and I'm like what now god and if we win this
don't think Harry
will be home
for three days straight
I know honestly
I'm like I can't
I'm actually going
I'm going to watch
it on Sunday
there's a big group
bring him home
yeah he's coming home
although I might leave him
if he like is so disgusting
he looks like a little toddler
like running about
with his
it's the fact that
Harry and Jamie
are both
I can't bear it guys is anyone
else's boyfriend walking around in a football top like is it okay harry harry got a red one
he thought it was cool i was like why did you get red fresh not white he's like well you know
everyone gets white it's just cooler i get red bless your little soul i don't think anyone wearing
a football t-shirt can be classified
as cool but like supporting their country i get it i think it's great you know it's good for us
but it's also just like can we just relax a bit you know yeah like going out it's too much
how all the beer drinking i've actually heard did you hear on the news that like
this football have saved has saved so many pubs from like going into like I know I was thinking I wish I was in the beer industry
it's helped so much
the hospitality industry yeah
like really saved people's businesses
that's really
that's actually really nice
yeah
because like
for every one that they pour on the floor
like you know what I mean
they're still getting paid for it
yeah
they're pouring over each other's heads
yeah
well look I agree with you
I'm with you every step of the way
I'm not
I don't have a clue
what's going on with football, I'm ashamed to say.
It's so funny.
I told you guys what Sophie said that one time.
And you were like, it was at the very beginning.
Sophie goes, oh, it's the last match.
It's the big one.
It's the World Cup.
I said, it's the World Cup.
I just didn't understand it.
And I was like, is it?
And then I was like, are you sure?
I was like, Harry told me this was just the start of it.
I don't think it's the World Cup.
It was the second match.
Oh, it was so funny. And it wasn't even playing. I literally just thought, oh, and I was like, are you sure? I was like, Harry told me this was just the start of it. I don't think it's the world. It was the second match. Oh, that's so funny.
And it wasn't even playing.
I literally just put it on.
I was like, we best book somehow.
I'm such a loser.
Right, we've got to rate this wine.
I'm going to give it, because of the bottle included, a seven and a half to an eight.
