Hiya!
Hi Laura!
How are you?
Frankly, you're lucky I'm here.
I snoozed.
Okay, I've done some weird phone settings.
I'm not sure what I've done.
But basically, for some reason, my snooze glitched.
And I, to say, I took a...
What are the tablets I like?
Melatonin.
Yes.
I'm so glad you didn't list off something embarrassing there.
Melatonin.
I'm glad I went through for half an hour.
Joanne just sprays
a bit of magnesium spray on her feet
before bed, that's all it takes
for her
Just a little bit of cat in the evening
Just to
take me to the next layer
A magnesium rub
a bit of CBD oil
and sometimes she pops a diurelite so she doesn't get
thirsty during her sleep Just a a bit of CBD oil. And sometimes she pops a diurelite so she doesn't get thirsty during her sleep.
Just a little bit of cocoa powder.
What do they call it?
A little bit of hot chocolate.
A bit of an Ovaltine for Joanne.
What?
Ovaltine.
We got there in the end.
That's what I take.
It's Ovaltine.
Anyway, these magnesiums or whatever they are fucking very strong
and I snoozed
until my alarm
started screaming
at me at 9.49
or something
and I was like
ahhh
you know
and I completely panicked
and I'm on here
and should nobody hear you
lazy bastards
I've been sitting here
for four minutes
did I tell you
about that murder
well no
I don't think so
well supposedly
there was a man found in a van just near where we live, murdered.
There you go.
God love him.
Keep it light.
Morning.
Happy Thursday.
Does that mean there's going to be kind of a crime scene outside your house for a little bit?
Well, what I was thinking, no, there wasn't.
I don't actually know what happened.
But there is people, right?
There's two boys
that come along.
Well, they could be girls.
But I tend to blame boys
before I blame girls.
But they come along
on bikes
and they robbed
Ruth Rose's
photography stuff.
She ran in to get something
and by the time
she'd gone back,
they'd smashed her windows in
and robbed something.
Did you see the video
of the guy cycling past
taking the phone
out of your one's hand?
No.
It was in the news.
So basically there's all
this kind of
kind of
I don't know
story I'd say at the moment
about how people's phones
are getting robbed
and then when they track them
they're in China
so they're being sent to China
because it's really hard
to sell stolen phones
in the UK now
because there's such kind of high security. Because you can track them. Well they're just sent to China because it's really hard to sell stolen phones in the UK now because there's such
kind of high security.
Because you can track them.
Well, they're just making
it really difficult
and it's like highly illegal
now and stuff.
So they're selling them
all to China.
There's this huge big
business of these lads.
There's huge big crime rings
now stealing phones.
But he went up,
there's a video,
you should look at it.
She's just rocking down the street.
She's holding her phone
and it's not like she's holding,
do you know how sometimes
you see tourists
in Leicester Square
or whatever
holding their iPad up
to get photos
or they're using the maps
and you're like,
are you,
like I'd rob that.
You're like,
it's so easy.
Like you're literally
offering it out to strangers.
It's like they're holding it up
across above their head
walking around.
But she wasn't like that.
She was,
she was being
quite protective of her phone
and this
lad
again
could have been a woman
but it was a boy
yeah
it's always a boy
I mean
we can be PC here
but it was clearly
visibly a male
and
he came up
and just
robbed the phone
out of her hand
so quickly
and with
I was going to say
such elegance
which probably isn't
the right way
to describe it
so chic
and it was gone
and he was gone
and that was it
and then her phone
ended up in China
and a particular road
in China
like they know
where they're going
to this factory
and then they're
kind of unlocking them
and selling them on
to the Chinese
yeah
that's the news
that's the goss
that happened to me
when I was walking
along the road
when I used to live
in Angel and I was on my phone just chatting away and then me when I was walking along the road when I used to live in Angel
and I was on my phone
just chatting away
and then two guys came up
on a motorbike
and I swear to God,
my hand was still up to my face.
They were so quick.
I was like,
I nearly did.
And I was also talking to somebody
I shouldn't have been talking to.
And I was like,
oh no,
oh God.
Just to make it worse.
I was like,
I hope that phone's going to China
or I'm screwed
now I'm like
who were you talking to
maybe it's sexy bait
it's like a game where they steal the phone you chase it to their house and
then they're there naked in the pool oh that doesn't sound terrifying at all yeah no you're
right that's not great well i woke up this morning um really weirdly early i don't know why i went to
bed too early i think and i was gonna go out for a run and then i thought you know i'm not gonna go
out i'm not gonna go for a run it's too I thought, you know what? I'm not going to go out. I'm not going to go for a run. It's too early.
I'm too scared of people, even though it was bright.
Oh, really?
Would you be nervous?
Well, I suppose there's been a murder quite close to you.
I think when that happens, it kind of puts a fresh security issue in your head.
Maybe.
Murder on the mind.
Too early to be going running in Battersea Park.
I don't even know if the gates are open at that time anyway.
So I went into,
so it's coming to the end of school
so I have to buy the kids' teachers
presents.
And like,
because she's finishing nursery,
I was like,
I'll buy them a nice present.
So I went,
not that I don't buy nice presents,
but this was just nicer.
I went into Space NK.
Have you ever been in there?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That place is on
have you been
Joe you wouldn't really care
would you
I don't know what it is mate
but I'm googling it now
oh my god
it's like
they have the best
brands in the whole
I spent
I spent an hour
in Space NK yesterday
and I was
I was only going into
by Vatures
and I left with a bag
of stuff
it's like
and when I was in there
I was like
Joanne would love this
Joanne would love this
Joanne would love this
I love this
I don't think you should
ever go in there if you like areanne would love this Joanne would love this I love this I don't think you should ever go in there
if you like
are saving money
or on any kind of
shopping van
I wish we'd asked Jo
to guess what Space NK was
because there's no way
you'd have guessed
no yeah yeah
I assumed it was
something to do with
Elon Musk
but it's
well so
no shade to Space NK
but
they do tend to
run a little high
on the costs
well the brands
that they have in there
are pretty spenny brands
but there's
like I wanted
I wanted one of everything
and you know that
have you ever used
that bum bum cream
I got bum bum cream
sold at Gennaro
Gennaro?
sold at Gennaro
oh
I hear
I know
I know
yeah I'm aware
of the brand
it's beautifully branded and I'm aware Of the brand It's beautifully branded
And I'm aware of it
And apparently
It makes your bum rock hard
Is that true?
Rock hard
And I walked around

Smelling like pistachio

That was
It was more like a joke

I'm thrilled
I've been really working on it
that's the bum bum cream

I went around smelling like pistachio
I smelt like
a 25 year old goddess on the beach.
That's what I smelled like yesterday.
Rio de Janeiro.
No, Sol de Janeiro.
Are we plugging this or are you just genuinely mad for it?
No, we're not plugging it.
She keeps naming the brand.
It's like the Truman Show.
I like to wake up with some Nescafe.
What? I like to wake up with some Nescafe what?
you know the way
people are quite flippant
about the whole ADHD thing
and it's very funny
some of the memes
going around
there was one going around
where a woman was like
oh I was kind of getting jiggy
with some lad in a bedroom
and I went
I left the room for a second
and forgot he was in there
and just started like
doing bits around the kitchen
and she left him in there
and I posted because it really made me laugh and she left him in there and I posted it
because it really made me laugh
and a girl DM'd me
saying like
her sister has ADHD
like genuinely has it
and her sister dropped her
she was going to stay over
in her sister's house one night
so her sister dropped her
to hers to get pyjamas
and she went in
and the sister forgot
while she was there
and drove off
your one comes out
with her overnight bag

packing her own flat

We're like, I've organized everything.

but like a few of her friends have gotten back so she might have like
four or five people there

but I couldn't believe it

and I forgot to invite anyone
so if you were wondering
why you hadn't been invited
Joanne
and Jo
now you know
I forgot
well
well it sounds like you've
have
it sounds like you've
now remembered
and invited people
yet me and Jo
remain uninvited

but Gigi specifically said
she didn't want you guys to go.
Okay, okay.
Only Jo can join.
You can come to PD.
I'll see you there.
Don't worry.
We've got cake.
We're doing a Mediterranean spread.

and arts and crafts?
I'm doing paper mache
from two to four.
Anyway, folks,
it's none of your business
what I do in Purple Dragon.
It's private what I do down there.
I'm just trying to improve myself
as a person,
physically and mentally.
I'd love to take you
to Purple Dragon.
I just pop out of the ball pit. I'm like,
hey bitch, what are you doing here?
I just walk by and you're
on a trampoline.
Just getting the
steps in with the leg weights on.
Okay, that's great then. At least
I've got another person on the list
Thank you very much
And Gigi would like anything princess related
She's got a little wish list
Has she?
I'll shoot you over the email
With the registry okay
And don't be put off
By my bank details
The only reason it's my bank details
Is because she doesn't have an account
That you know of that you know of I'd say Gigi most certainly has some sort of
offshore account for herself I've no doubt in my mind oh my god how's she affording all those wigs
I I had to I walk her to school and we're trying she's nearly four obviously
so she has to start like
walking or scooting
or doing something
because she only wants to sit
in the back of the buggy
and I'm like
we could get
we get 20 meters from the house
and she's like
I'm so tired
and I'm like
you physically couldn't be tired
so I had to walk the whole way
to Steve's school
with her like screaming
crying behind me
and I'm like
I am not giving into this bullshit she's she's such a she's such a little princess I love us
I went I went in yesterday morning to breakfast and um and Theodore and Gigi were sitting there
bawling crying and Otto was just sitting there happy as Larry and I was like what is going on
Otto had bitten Theodore so he was crying and then he scratched Gigi so she was crying and Otto was just sitting there happy as Larry and I was like what is going on? Otto had bitten Theodore so he was crying
and then he scratched. She
was crying and Otto was just sitting there
absolutely thrilled. So he owns
this house now. He's moving
into his evil era. I love it.
I might start hanging out with him.
He's ready for you.
I think he's ready. I think he's
maturing into something nice and evil.
I love it.
I had an idea, Vogue,
for you to maybe up your Uber rating.
Okay.
I'm sorry,
I will say it again.
I'm a tipper and I'm a talker
and if that doesn't work
for people,
I don't know what will.
Well, it clearly doesn't.
So I think it's time to revisit.
So I heard you're down to 2.4 now.
That's what I heard.
That's what's on the Uber.
That's what's on the Uber boards.
Do you know what I think we should do right now?
You and I.
I think we should have an Uber off.
We haven't done one in a long time.
Would you like to have an Uber off?
Okay.
Okay.
I can't imagine. And how do you
find what your ratings are? Yeah, no, I can see
mine. I've clicked all the way through.
I'm clicked. Okay, well, what did you get?
4.
72.
I'm not
happy to just stop there
because, right, I'm 4.50
but when you go on a digital
drive... Oh my god, how are they even collecting you still? stop there because right I'm 4.50 but when you go on a deeper dive
oh my god how are they even collecting you still
that's
that's really bad
hang on I'm going to the deeper dive
because you are gonna be
sick with yourself when we go on a deeper dive
you just wait because I obviously get more
ubers than you what are we looking for
we're looking because I have loads of five star ratings
and I want to fucking prove this to you.
I just have so many rides.
I have had 1,019 trips
and I have 395 five-star ratings.
How many do you have?
442.
That's a lie.
It's just not true.
Oh dear.
Show me yours right now.
Oh no. Oh dear. She's awful in taxis.
I have 19 one stars.
That's quite high.
I have 31 one stars.
I'm actually,
no, do you know what?
I'm cancelling the app.
I'm not doing it anymore.
I'm not going on Uber ever again.
Seeing the stats
just in black and white
and yellow there,
it's quite jarring,
isn't it?
I'm actually
so disgusted by this.
That's a real shit start
to the day.
This is like stand-up.
All I'm going to see now
are those 19 one stars.
I had 19 shit gigs
in an Uber.
What happened there?
I'll tell you what happened,
right?
You just have to think
about it this way.
Those were the 19 times you probably had
your best time
in the Uber
when you'd had a few drinks
you were maybe singing
like so don't worry about it
you look at those 19 stars
like 19 good times
for you
and yourself
this all started with me
saying I was
I had an idea
for you to up your rating
okay
well I've no interest
because now I've deleted
the account
well I got an Uber
the other day down to a gig
and your man, he was so lovely and he was trying to engage in conversation
and I actually had to say, I'm so sorry.
I actually, I was writing notes to do, I was doing a work in progress
and he's like, no problem, no problem.
Because I was like, I just have to try and remember all this stuff.
He's like, no worries.
But he was obviously kind of like, it's rare that they kind of chat to you.
Anyway, then when I left, he took out a little box of roses
and you got to pick a sweet
and I was like
oh my god
this is a
straight five stars
I was like
I'd give you 15 if I could
and I was like
wouldn't that be nice Vogue
if you just gave out
little treats at the end
of the ride maybe
little fairy pods
or something maybe
okay I'll bring some
fairy scent boosters
everyone loves a scent booster
that's it
I'll bring some scent boosters
yeah just like confess you just throw it on them and then leave just throw it around the car yeah I'll bring some fairy scent boosters everyone loves a scent booster that's it I'll bring some scent boosters yeah just like confess
you just throw it on them
and then leave
just throw it around the car
yeah I'll be like
don't worry about it
your car's gonna
free scent boosters
Vogue Williams
five stars
girls
I need your thoughts
so my boyfriend
watches porn
big deal
so does Vogue Williams
for crying out loud
indeed recently So my boyfriend watches porn. Big deal. So does Vogue Williams for crying out loud.
Indeed.
Recently.
What?
That's suggesting like that you're like an asexual eunuch.
They're like even Vogue watches porn.
I mean, if she's doing it,
how could anyone else to be expected not to do it?
I look like a clean living gal. I don't look like a gaping assholes kind of gal,
but here we are.
Go on. Recently, my boyfriend has been open with me that he also visits live webcam sites,
which I feel weird about. Interesting. Okay. Yeah. Okay. It's one thing if he's just watching
normal porn, but knowing that he can interact with a live model while he masturbates feels a bit much.
Knowing that he can interact with a live model while he masturbates feels a bit much.
We have a normal sex life and if anything, I'm happy he watches porn because he has more of a sex drive and it means I don't have to turn him down or worse, have sex with him when I'm really not into it.
But this feels like a step too far.
Am I being too prude?
I don't like that at all.
I wouldn't even like
one of the little VR headsets.
I even think that's going too far.
I just think it's like,
come on.
And where does it lead to from then?
My take on this is
there's a lot of,
she used normal a lot of times,
well twice I think,
and I don't think you can apply normal
to sex or porn
I think
it's every man
to themselves
and also
this is my take on it now
sometimes what you don't know
can't hurt you
and I think
trying to police
a person's
pornographic usage
they're going to do
what they're going to do
if you stop
if you say
I don't want you to do that he's going to keep doing it and he's going to lie what they're going to do he if you stop if you say i don't want you to
do that he's going to keep doing it and he's going to lie about it i just i i i i i think that that's
a little bit much i think you're interacting with an actual person and i that would be too much for
me i don't i have no issue with porn and i certainly wouldn't want to know what kind of
porn people watch although i do know i do I do know what Spenny watches.
It's really normal, which I was surprised by.
I know you can't say normal, but like, it's not what you would think.
I think I'm darker than he is, which I find surprising.
But also, is he telling you the truth?
I mean, is anyone telling anyone the truth?
Is there a truth?
Is there any such thing as truth?
You know, these are the questions I ask myself.
Like everyone's up to all sorts
behind their own closed doors.
You kind of just have to let them at it.
Why is he telling her though
that he's watching live webcasts?
I kind of wish that she didn't know that
and she could just get on with her life.
I wish she didn't know that either.
But I also think that knowing that
is like,
I just wouldn't be happy with it.
It's like,
oh, your fella's gone for a massage and then he's getting a happy ending at the end oh but it's not really
it's not really a thing it's not like a real yeah it's it it is where's the line where's the line
yeah well it's all over the line the line is gone the line is
with the um sorry I was just completely shocked by that
I never know what will shock you
and what won't shock you
it's too early for it
I've been up since five
it feels like the afternoon to me
I suppose if you were to get really down
to the nitty gritty
is it always the same woman
then that to me is,
would be maybe an issue.
You're like,
are you,
are you specifically webcomming one,
one woman all the time?
Then it's maybe a little different.
I don't know.
I'm in one of those,
I'm in,
I'm in my,
what you don't know can't hurt you stages of my life.
But she does know.
So.
I know.
It's a shame she knows
yeah it is
it's a shame
I know but
I know you're saying that
but then it's like
oh well I didn't know
he was cheating
so I didn't mind
like of course
you want to know
certain things
but is
is webcamming cheating
that's the question
and I don't
I don't know
I think webcamming
is going along a line
that you shouldn't
be treading
I think
you're on the plank there.
You're on the plank.
My take on it is,
if he's already walked that plank,
trying to walk himself back off that plank,
what chance does he have?
If he sees the sharks in the water,
he might not want to go off the plank anymore.
He might say,
I'll come back down off the plank.
I don't want to go into those sharks.
Just to round that up we don't know
we're stumped by that
yeah
we're absolutely stumped
I kind of do know
I wouldn't be happy
with that
that's how I feel
I do know that I would
not be happy
but I agree with Joanne
that I would rather
that I didn't know
maybe that
yeah same
I don't know maybe we don't know. Maybe that. Yeah same. I don't know.
I don't know.
Maybe we don't know.
If she can somehow.
Men in black herself.
Out of that one.
I would.
I would recommend.
Giving yourself a good head injury.
And hoping that.
When you come out of the coma.
That bit is gone.
That's the best advice.
I can give there.
Joanne you have the most.
Fantastic advice.
Joanne I never tell you that.
I did an online course.
I did an hour course.
In life coaching. So I think I'm pretty qualified now to be dowling
all this shit out.
Started at three. I was qualified by 4.30.
Thrilled.
