They’ve got a chapter each and YOU can submit your burning questions to them... PARENTINGHELLBOOK@BONNIERBOOKS.CO.UKWhat's it really like to be a parent? And how come no one ever warned Rob or Josh of the sheer mind-bending, world-altering, sleep-depriving, sick-covering, tear-inducing, snot-wiping, bore-inspiring, 4am-relationship-straining brutality of it all? And if they did, why can't they remember it (or remember anything else, for that matter)?And just when they thought it couldn't get any harder, why didn't anyone warn them about the slices of unmatched euphoric joy and pride that occasionally come piercing through, drenching you in unbridled happiness in much the same way a badly burped baby drenches you in milk-sick?Join Josh and Rob as they share the challenges and madness of their parenting journeys with lashings of empathy and extra helpings of laughs.

Hello, I'm Rob Beckett. And I'm Josh Willicum. Welcome to Parent in which Josh and I discuss what it's really like to be a parent, which I would say can be a little tricky.
So, to make ourselves and hopefully you feel better about the trials and tribulations of modern-day parenting,
each week we'll be chatting to a famous parent about how they're coping. Or hopefully,
how they're not coping.
And we'll also be hearing from you the listener with your tips, advice and of course, tales
of parenting woe.
Because let's be honest, there are plenty of times when none of us know what we're doing.
Hello you're listening to Parenting Hill with.
Okay so Rob Beckett.
Rob Beckett.
And Josh Whitticam.
Josh Whitticam.
Okay, and now the girls just have something to say it.
Go on.

And Josh Wittickam.
Say again, Josh, we get her. Great thing about the length of that one, Rob, is as it was happening I thought we're
going to have to do less than normal on this show because that was...
I can see it was still going on because I can watch the, I can watch the progress bar.
I was like, fucking there's still something to go.
That's like when I used to do Zoom corporates in COVID. You do gigs to companies, and then I'd always get a little bit of information about them,
and there's one bloke going,
oh, didn't you like poo yourself
from the way home from something?
You're in yeah, and he was just told a five minute anecdote,
and I just listened. And I went, I was thinking that I need to send him a split. I'm a split, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, didn't, to, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, to, the the to, to, the to, to, the to, the to, the the to, the to, the the the the the to, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, didn't, the I couldn't believe it. It's like booking Miriam Margulies. Whenever...
There'll be certain people that come on the last lag and I think,
fucking now, come part two I don't need to speak again, this is brilliant.
You're one of them, Rob.

Yeah, like there'll be a guy spinning plate. Anyway, get this, I just thought I've got to share this because it's perfect content for...
So I'm sure they'll find out that I'm mentioning it on the podcast.
I've been polite to them, but I think it's a bad plan.
My friends are taking their three-month-old to Glastonbury. Pricks.
Idiots.
Absolutely idiot.
I went in Glassbury once.
I hated it and I offended it was awful.
It's not for you.
Just too big.
It's not for you.
It's not.
Yes, it's the greatest time of your life.
It's so good for you?
Do you know why it's so good for you? because the rest of your life so shit Josh. Okay? So you have these four days... Oh, it says the man who spends 40 weeks a year on holiday
to avoid living in zone five.
Tushy, fair point.
Fair point.
That is a fair point, yes, I do.
There isn't much to do where I live.
But that's why I've got to drive though, Josh.
I've got to drive, okay? No, I've just found Glastonbury a bit smug for me, Josh. I couldn't deal with it. Oh, oh, that's why I love it. But there are people there, though, with babies,
with them stupid ear defenders on, but it feels like it's a bit of an, aren't I, it's like an aren't I crazy badge of honor take your kid to Glastonbury? I don't think these people even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even even thua thue tho tho tho thin people thin they they're thin thin' thin' thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi thi thi thi tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I'm th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the. the. the. the an the an the an thean thean thean thean thean thean thean thean thean thean thean's thean's thea thea' they been before? Yeah, they go, they've been before, right?
They've got a cottage off-site.
They're gonna be taking the baby home every night
and then coming back on to sight.
Can you imagine being in a field of 100,000 people
watching Paul McCartney,
and you've got a baby that needs changing.
Yeah, everyone smells of shit, so that'll be fine. Oh, this is lovely good stuff.
This is really good stuff.
It's actually quite good.
It's basically the home of three-month-old pecumans.
Now, maybe I just had a bad experience of Glass and Bree, so maybe I'm skewed, but
I got booked to do it, um, I don't know why I just did it because ago and I got booked. I thought a midday it was midnight. I've got there at 11 a.m
Had to wait for 12 hours and then I had to drive home. It was awful. I'm on at 1.30 in the afternoon
Friday. I just I just can't be bothered camping. I don't know if it's like a working class
people really like camping because when you're working class you sort to do camping, because you're sort of doing it to go away a holiday, to to they........ I, their, their, to, their, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I to, I to th, I the, I th, I'm, I'm, I'm, th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. And, thi. And, to to to to to to to to the fall to go away on holiday and then you're not really doing it properly because you haven't got all the gear and then I've just spent
20 years sharing a room with my brother I don't want to sleep in a tent with
him. I'll be honest we camped when I was a kid and I enjoyed it because I
was a kid and you enjoy things like that when you're a kid but my plan is to never camp until I die so you're not you to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the Rose just going babysitting that'll be fun though yeah for you I wouldn't I wouldn't
like to do that but then that's why we're different isn't it just different
strokes. Do you know what Rob that's what makes this podcast appeal
across the board some people hate you some people hate me it's perfect
it's perfect. that let's let's be clear about this. We are hated by a select number of the
country. However, the ratios work, whoever hates me likes you,
whoever hates me, and as long as we don't, one of us doesn't talk for too long,
they won't tap out. Exactly, exactly.
That's how these words. Always disappointing when I meet a friend and they say that they
like you because it does make me worry about what they think about me.
I remember ones in Edinburgh, we was cute, there was a gig and it was a real rowdy horrible
stag dude going in and I was walking along with you and James Acuast out and we was all
oh God this is going to be so tough that's going to be so bad they're so drunk and rowdy and you both think you'll they'll th you'll th you'll th you'll be th you'll be th you'll be th you'll be th you'll be thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi tho tho tho tho tho thi. tho' tho-in' tho-in' tho-in' tho-in' tho-in' tho-in' their their their their tho-in' tho-in' tho-in' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' thin' the the the the an the an the an the an the an the an the an the an the an tho' the an the the the th and rowdy and you both think you'll be all right Rob and I was like what does that say about me? You basically just called them
actual scum. Oh I stated and disgusting people you'll be all right Rob
don't worry about it. Oh sure fine you can handle yourself in the clubs to
me fair I did smash that gig and the same as when I did the
butlin's comedy weekend oh my god I died so hard at butlin's thin' they that was me and I feel like I'm ringing up Stephen Moward and going,
let's go in on this together because that are my people.
I destroyed that game.
Late Night Gimp Fight still say it's the hardest gig they've ever done.
Going on Butlin's after I did it.
Oh my word.
They're brilliant late nightnigh I'll give a fight, but as a butlins goer. It doesn't scream butlins, does it? No.
But anyway, I don't know how he got onto that.
Sorry.
Anyway, I was just telling you, I'll update you on these people with the three-month-old
baby.
I just think it's a bad decision.
Yeah, oh, Rob.
It's an awful decision. Well, there's nothing better than being away from your kids watching people still be with them but having no guilt. I tell you what I'm not doing, Rob.
Yeah.
Absolutely not.
No way.
Also, you wouldn't be in a fit state to hold Rob.
How long are you going for?
Thursday to Sunday morning.
Right, okay.
Yeah, so Thursday, Friday. I'll touch my child over Diana Ross, but not over Paul. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. I. to. to. to.

cover hi Gary Davis in here for Tom Allen in here for Josh and Rose Widdicum. We've got two
lovely kids will we keep your date here, Duran Duran. Do you reckon, do you, if I said you, Gary
Davis is looking after my children for the next three days, would you be confident?
I'd trust him. Oh thank Lou. Lou's just brought me a hot water with lemon and honey. Thanks Lou. You are great. Thanks, thanks. Thank you. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to to to to th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. the. tod. today. today. today. today. today. today. today. bit... Oh, that was quite a slam of the door.
That felt frosty, that felt frosty.
I'll be honest with you.
I'd have that water quite, quite swiftly
because I think the temperature will be lower than you think it's going to be Rob.
Would you know, what, you know, it's a bit like women you should sort of make men tea, right? You know, like my mom and dad's generation, older, that,
and like, you know, it's that old classic,
it gives a cup of tea, but it's like,
and it's like, they're just bringing food and drink and stuff,
which is wrong and it should be totally 50-50,
but I feel like Lou's has gone connotations of the olden days. And my accent, because
my accent does feel like it could just be a cup of tea babe, yeah, babe.
Babe, eight sugars. First year, first year, first year, first year, I'm first
trying up here, cup of tea babe. Do you know have one and I feel like I've been bad it's all right I haven't been bad no you haven't been bad you just feel like
I'm calling Colkins brother in succession when he's trying to get I'm Jerry to
tell him off so he can have a whank you feel like that guy
you feel like I am that guy
you got to do what you got to do so. So I don't remember what I was talking about. I don't be saying, if you're going away for three nights, I would just be inclined just
to go somewhere, you chill out and go to a spa or relax or go a brawl to the seaside.
Do you want to know how excited I am, Rob?
I've not been since 2016. So what is it you're excited about at Glastin'-I? Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. Rob. to. to. to. to. to. to. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the th. I. I. I. I. I. I. I the the the th. the. the. the the. the the. the. the. the. to to to to to to to to to to Oh, it's going to hit you odd. Last time I went, I was driven down by a Mr Joe Beckett, the broccoli barber.
Yes!
Yeah, my brother drove you down from last leg, didn't he?
Yeah, but now this is the first Glastonbury in a decade with no last leg on the Friday.
I think you're going to find it tough. I don't think I'm you you you you you thi I how excited I am every day. I just, when I get excited about things, Rob,
the way I talk about it.
You clap your hands or is that nerves?
No, no, that's nerves.
When I get excited, I just talked about...
Do you talk about it.
You do that the first time you had sexy rose?
Hold up Rose. I'm a bit nervous. It feels like it feels a lovely Apollo first
time. Water behind the ears, let's go get that hair wet, clap the palms,
Whitter comes in. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And he's out. But, yeah, he's out. But, well, it's still wet behind the ears.
He's finished.
But when I'm excited about something, Rob, all I do is I talk about the practicalities of it
to people, the logistics the whole time.
So I was just in the kitchen the other day, I said to Rose,
so what drinks do you think you're going to drink on the different days of Glastonbury? And she's like, I don't care. You know like, you know like when you... I don't
care about this? You know like when you fancy someone and you keep bringing them up in conversation? Like, I'll steer the conversation around to Glastonbury at all times. You fancy Glastonbury? I fancy Glastonbury. So all I do is like, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll like, I'll like, I, I, I'll like, I'll like, I'll like, I' like, I' like, I' like, I' like, I' like, I' like, I' like, I'''''''a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I''''''''''''''''''a, I'''''''a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I'a, I don't, the steer the conversation around to Glastonbury at all times. You fancy Glastonbury.
I fancy Glastonbury.
So all I do is I'll look at the different stage times and then work out what I'm going to
go and see.
So will you be strict with that when you get there?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's just an excitement things you definitely want to see that are your red lines, everything else, go with the crowd because it's better to be with
your friends at something you're not that fussed about than be stood on your own
at something you really care about I think. Okay well I tell you what if there's
any listeners go into Glastonbury for the first time, email in the first time, email, email in the the th, I I I I I I I I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'll, I'll, email, email, I'll, I'll, I'll, email, I'll the the the the the the the the thooma, I'll the thooma, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho' tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, the the the the the tho, tho, tho, the tho, tho' tho' throooooooo'er's thoo'er's thoa'er'er's thoa'er's thoa'er's thoooooooo' thooo' thoooooo because you are a bit of an expert.

Yeah. Okay, cool.
And then you can really go for it.
So you're going to be quite sober and two then, aren't you?
I asked to go on first on Friday, Rob.
Well, enjoy it, Josh.
I'm glad you've got that that kids. Let's talk kids and cats. So there's been a lot of death chat in the... My daughter's just got into death. She's into death and the
Queen at the moment, which obviously is a worrying combo at the moment as well.
Yes. I think she'll be alright the Queen but yeah like she's 96 so it is inevitable. I know no one wants to talk about it. I don't seem disrespectful. No no no no no no no no. But but but but but but but but but but. to. to. to. to. to. the to. the the to. th. the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. the the th. the the the the th. the thi the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th you know.

Anyway, so my daughter's talking about death now.
Partly, because understandably, she asked Rose's mom what the signs were on
on benches.
She was on a bench and she was like, what's that? And her mom said, oh, that's someone who's died.
This was their favorite bench.
And then my daughter was asking us about death.
And then she was like, is the queen going to die?
Is, you know, are you going to die?
And you have to say yes, yes, the ti.
And you have to say yes, but in a very long time time. And then. And then. And then, and then, and then, are! move! So she was like am I gonna die and you go yeah yeah yeah but years
away so far away. Oh God I was his hot was so awkward and she looked at us quite
sadly and she said but I don't have a favorite bench. Now now she's under pressure.
She's big shit I need to choose a bench. Oh God!
But when I die!
I don't like any bench is always too hard.
Oh, I haven't got a favourite bench, of course not.
I never sit on a bench.
Give me a cushioned garden where?
Are you gonna get your name put on a swing chair in the garden?
Yeah, the egg chair in the air because the cat.
So barrel.
So last time I spoke to you, had she been taken into the vet by this point?
Yeah, so she was overnighting at the vet.
So they, I know, we took her in, blood tests, came back, then they phoned us up there
like she needs to come in. I took her in quite confident because they've been quite positive on the phone. When I got in there, the vet was not positive.
Her kidney reading, whatever it is, is men to be a hundred.
Yeah, and it was 1,100.
So is that good or bad?
She got really good kidney or really bad.
That's actually what I'm saying, she's superhuman.
Her kidney is great. That's bad kidney. She stayed in for a night. thia. She thia. She thia. thia. thia. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. tho, tho, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi.'s bad kidney. She stayed in for a night, then they phoned me, they did some blood tests and they were like, so she's a goner
basically. Oh no, I'm sorry. Well, it's, don't worry. We think maybe you could bring
her home palliative care for a few months, which is, you know, like... A few months. You don't want a cat dining your house, to thrown in the tode. to to to to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to to to to to their their their their tooome, their their tooome, their tooomorrow, to be, to be, to be to be their their their thoomorrow, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, basically, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, thoome, thoomorrow, together, together, together, together, together, together, together, together, together, thooooomorrow, thooomorrow, thoomorrow, thoomorrow, and we'd see how it goes. And they were like, oh, all right,
okay, well it is what it is.
Grim.
They were like, we'll keep her in for another night.
Do you want us to do a, you've got insurance?
So do you want us to do a scan tomorrow just to see what it is? Yeah, I mean, pointless, point tho' their to try, we we we we to to to try, we to to to to tho, we tho, we, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, we'll, okay, okay, okay, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, okay, we'll, okay, okay, we'll to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their, we, we, we, we, we, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, okay, we'll, okay, we're, we're, we're, okay, we're, we're, we're, we're, we're, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll, to be happy about this situation. Let the vet earn. Do you know what? They love, vets love all this, didn't they?
They love deep pockets and big hearts.
The moment they hear you've got insurance.
It's like a fucking gash point for them, mate.
Anyway.
Even the Churchill dog goes around with a limp.
I'm not paying out.
The next morning, they phone up after the scan they're like,
actually we can do something.
Fucking out.
I mean, surely do a scan first.
Well it turns out she's got kidney stones in her tubes, so blocking the kidney to the bladder.
Right?
They basically like, we have to operate on her.
She'll have to go under the knife.
An operation?
An operation? Including a blood transfusion
because she's anemic so the Russian cat's blood across London, right?
They have to put in a bypass of the tube, a plastic bypass of the tube, right?
If I could say one thing now, Rob, get pet insurance because otherwise we'd have had a very different for an op so
our pet insurance premium is we got up to seven grand yeah and we ended up
paying 500 quid because we went over our seven and a half grand Jesus Christ
mental basically I was speaking to someone they were like yeah we were
told by like the person that sold us the cat you'd make you'd save money if you just put the money aside in a bank
account every month and then paid your vet spills out of that and that is
probably true but right yeah you'd end up at some point having to make the
decision as to whether you spend that money on holiday with this or are we going to try and save the life of our cat?
80% chance of survival. I love my cat. So is 80% chance survival once they do the operation for seven half ground? Yeah, I don't think I could spend seven half ground on my cat. But if you've done, we've got
pet insurance, but if you do a pay insurance it makes it easy, didn't it? Yeah, exactly. There was no decision. It was no there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there there was a the the the the the there was a the the the the the the the the the th. It was th. It was th. It was th. It was that. It was th. It was th. It was th. It was th. It was th. It was that. It was th. It was that. It was that. It was th. It was th. It was th. It was th.

It was a that. that. that. that. that. that. the to to to to to to to to to to to to to that. that. that. l? Well, she was in there for eight days, Rob.
What, the operation?
No wonder it was so expensive, it was cheap at half the price.
So she had the operation was in there for eight days?
Eight days, right, afterwards recovering on fluids.
Oh, God. One point, phoned up she was on ketamine,
Oh my God, ask us to bring some home for Glastonbury. Seven
half grand is well spent. Yeah exactly. Some ketamine? She was on ketamine. Oh yes
please. It's really good. No wonder you can win over those stag dudes at Butler's.
But... But... Ha ha ha ha ha ha! It's been a very... I've been surprised at how emotionally affected I've been by a cat.
You're really into your cats, aren't you?
Like...
But I'm not that... No, Rose is really into a cat.
Yeah. I thought I was pretty like cool about it.
I almost cried when we went out for dinner on Saturday night.
Because I felt like we shouldn't be doing it while she was in hospital.
Now that is mental.
That is too much.
I know that you're very caring person, but there's nothing you not eating, it's not going
to help the cat.
I think I was just overwhelmed.
I think it was just a bit overwhelmed.
I almost cried in my neighbors the dumplings? What? That's the name of the cafe, the restaurant. Oh, right, in my neighbours the dumplings?
In my neighbours the dumplings?
No, we were in, my neighbours, it's called my neighbours the dumplings.
My neighbours the dumplings.
That's a weird name, isn't it?
Yeah. You East London, look crazy.
It's mad out there.
It's mad now, Ben. Is she home? I had to go and pick her up. They put her in this kind of very tight t-shirt.
Let me send it to you.
Because she's not.
So instead of giving her the thing around the head,
they now give them a tight t-shirt so they now give them a tie shirt.
Oh yeah, yes, that's what the t-shirt. It looks absolutely absurd. I've sent you a picture of it.
Oh no, I've sent you a rummish. It looks like she's been rolled up for like a burrito.
I tell you what romish is going to make of that. That was a different group. But it looks weird,
it looks weird. It looks like our tails actually leading the body. Yeah, the tail is bigger than the body. It's like a tale is bigger th than th than th than th than th than th th bigger th bigger th bigger th bigger th bigger th bigger th bigger th bigger thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's been the the the the the thi. It's thi. She's thi. She's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's that she's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's th. It's thi thi thi. It's been thi. It's been thi. It's been thi. It's been thi. It's been thi thi. It's'll put it on. I mean it's absolutely absurd.
Oh bless her. Just like a little fire, like she looked, do you know what she looks like?
She's wearing a Liverpool kit? Yeah, yeah.
Alay, Alay. We've got to keep her in a kidney, kidney, kidney.
I've got heartstones in my tubes.
I've got heart stones in my tubes. Do you have to take the off for her to have a wee?
No, no, no.
She's got little old.
The bits are exposed.
Oh, poor old barrel.
Oh, bribes.
Oh, bly.
We still don't know if she's going to be all right.
Oh, no.
We've got to keep her in one room for seven days. Why? Because she she't be like jumping around because of her scar.
Oh, okay. You've got a room where she's got nothing she can get on. It's like
what room have you got in your house where there's no surfaces? Well and if there
are, they're full of nickmacks? Exactly, right. But like what room would you keep a cat in if you didn't want it to jump on anything? Downstairs to toilet? It's too small Robb? You can't, Rob? Rob? th. th. th. th. the th. th. the th. th. th. th. the the th. the the th. th. the the th. the th. the the the their, their, their, their, their their, their, their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their, their, their, their, their. their. their, their. their. their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. th. th. th. th. th. they's th. th. thi. thi. thi. thooomooomoooomb. thooooooooooooooom. their their their their their their their their their thoom. Downstairs toilet. It's too small romp you can't do that to a cat.
Well I'm trying to think of a room that had nothing but there's still like a toilet seat
you can jump on. Yeah it's awful it's impossible. So how well the kids been though during this?
Well obviously my son who's one doesn't give a shit. Yeah. K Yeah, obviously. Keeps grabbing it. My daughter's not really, yeah, she's a bit like, knocked by it, but I think she realizes
we don't want to say she's going to be alright because we don't know she's going to be alright.
You don't want to make promises that you then have to go back on.
She's all right today.
She's all right today.
Enjoy her while you can't. How's Beryl? Look, she's here. Yeah, she's here in a very weird outfit. Oh, that's good, at least it's slightly better news than you thought it was gonna be.
God, it's been a weird old week, yeah, but there we go. My daughter's ill now.
His daughter's ill now. What's it? What's the thrown? What's it? What's it? the threat. You cook an egg on a red? Yeah? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's? It's? It's? It's? It's. It's. It's. Yeah. It. It.

So good.
It's a good one.
Such a clever dog.
Such a clever dog.
You are, uh, uh, oh.
Do you have to pay for them for me singing it there?
I thin for that? What? Do we have to pay them for me singing it there? I think I was so out of tune that we could argue in a court of law that isn't a cover.
Fair enough, good point.
Good point, well made.
How have you been?
Well, it's been busy, but good.
But good, we had a toothea.
I took the giraffes.
I fed a giraffe and I fed a bear
and a bear.
They've got bears there now, brown bears, but you just feed them nuts and apples.
Anyway, which is a bit weird, you know, I just wanted to launch of salmon at them, but you feed him nuts and stuff, but you, there's a big, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, there, and there, and there, and there, and there, and there, and they, and their, and their, and their, and th, and their, and I've, and their, and their, and their, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and I, and the, and I, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, th.. and, th.

We stayed in the Leopards Creek by the Leopards.
It's really pretty.
So you've got like a kind of window onto the leopards.
Yeah, didn't we see much the leopards?
But that was good though.
You have like a bed and the mezzling. Holiday, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so.

Holiday friends, yeah, holiday friends actually from other holidays.
Holiday friends, bloody out!
They're proper friends, you're holiday friends now.
Yeah, they've got, well they're out.
We sort of only really see them for holidays actually.
They are like strictly holiday friends.
Because they're really, really progressed. But it was really good. It was funny actually because they've just been away for a wedding and their kids
were the bridesmaids and they were the only sort of kids there. And one of them, it was a birthday
when they were out there. And then obviously they got her some presents, but all the people they were all their birthday giving her like 20 euros. But all the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. And th. And their their their their their th. And their their th. And their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their their their their their th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And their kids. And their kids. And their kids. And their kids. And their kids. And their kids. And their kids. And their their there was no one else they were kids really. So there was always like people to go oh it's your birthday giving her like 20 euros
because it was like having a birthday cake and they felt like oh we don't
really know because everyone was at this wedding overnight in Malta so I didn't explain it.
So it was in Malta for like four or five days at this wedding and they all got to know
everyone like 50 or 60 odd people and they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they all they were all all they all they were all they were all they were all they were all all they were all they were all they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they were they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they were they were they were they were they were they were all all all all all all all all all all they were all all all got they were all all all all got to to to they were all all all all all all all all got mate, it's one of their birthday so they were giving them cash,
go up, I would get yourself some sweets or toy in cash.
And then she had like hundreds of euros,
because you've got like 60 people there.
You wouldn't normally have 60 people near you.
And you would just throw a 10 or 20 quid at a kid and go, oh, yeah, and just you that, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and just, and they's they's they's they're they're just, and they're just, and just, and they're just, and just, and just, and they're just, and just, and just, and they're just, and they're, and they'd they'd they'd they'd they'd they'd they'd th. And, and she had, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and th. And, and th. And, and th. And, and th. And, and th. And, and th. And, and they's, and they're, and they're, and they're, and they're, and they're, and they're they're they're like, they're like, like, they're like, like, like, like, they're they're they're like, like, they're they're like, and they're they're they're they're they're like, and th. they're her, though, when was it, Paul Lynch, I went, oh, what, I got extra money for my birthday,
so I want to get the girls something from the shop.
She's really sweet, so it's really kind of a-
Of course she, bloody.
She's like rich, she's rich.
I know who's been up branson.
She said, well, she's eight,
and then her is waiting to go. Oh no. And it's holding it up now. Oh my God. Oh my God. My hand is going now Rob. My hand is going now with stress. I'm not going. No. No I'm not going. No. No. I'm not going. No. I'm not going. No. I'm not going. No. No. I'm not. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. No. No. No. No. No. No. I I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm the.

I'm the. I'm the. I'm the. I'm the. I'm the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. I's. the. I's. the if you walk down the aisle, I'll buy you the Barbie Dreamhouse.
No!
And she walked.
She's absolutely played her.
She's absolutely played her.
This is the trick, because they're quite expensive and she's wanted it for ages and they
keep saying like maybe a Christmas.
This is viral.
You can't negotiate with terrorists because once they know.
Exactly. They're done for. She also got a helicopter
home as well for a more. I think that it's a good email in. Tell us what is the worst
bit of bribery you've ever done with your child. Oh, can I just give you an
update, a holiday update? Oh yeah, go on. Tom Crane, who we interviewed a few
weeks ago. Yeah. They wanted to go on holiday abroad. They were about to put the
holiday and then they went to check their baby. They had to get a passport.
Obviously you can't make passports for a lot of money at the moment.
Couldn't get an appointment, had to cancel the holiday, eventually got an appointment, yeah, get sort the holiday out, get the birth certificate out. They've
misspelled his surname on the birth certificate. They can't get a passport, I'm not
winding you up. So what the how they spent, have built crane? Oh without an eye?
Because the computers went down when they were doing it so the guy copied it out
and said I'll type it into a computer later.
Oh idiot! And then obviously when the guys transferred it from handwriting to
computer he's forgotten the eye. So now they have to re-get the birth certificate
done? Yeah. Deepol? They're going, yeah they've got changed name by Dpole I suppose. They're going to be like have to fill in so many so to to to to to to the the the the the the the to be the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the to be, to be, I to be, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, to be, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I I I I I's, I I I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, tape, tape, tiphockea, tiphapote, tiphapote, tiph.e, tiph. I'm, idiot. Oh, idiot. Oh, idiot pole, I suppose. They're going to, and then for the rest of your life, they're gonna be like, have you ever had your name changed
and you're gonna have to fill in so many more forms?
I would have just, I would have just said,
you're a crane without an eye now,
get the passport, let's get their name's a shit.
People change their names. Where do I spell my name different? Because I'm bad at admin. I'm bad to admin and you have to suffer.
Oh, that is brutal.
So when are they going to the holiday?
Yeah, they're going to center parks.
Because you don't need a passport.
Oh, it'll be a good old bless it.
Oh, that is so brutal.
But it's not the same.
It's not the platy jubes, Josh? I wanted to ask you about this.
Oh, did I tell you I went to a corgi parade? No! What's that?
So Columbia Road? Of course it is.
You crazy guys. Do you want to see a picture of the corgioree parade?
When I used to live in Lucia and there used to be a few stuffishable terrier parades, but that was sort of just by chance. It wasn't organised.
So I'm not, I should say I'm not really a royalist, well I'm not.
But you just into corgis. But you don't turn them down the chance to see a corkie dressed as a
in a crown, do you?'s going to be good Josh. I don't know what expectations.
Yeah, it's still worse than that. Okay. We could put it on the uh. Well it's a minute long
weighs walking past. It was a lot. the today., I'll document this. Well, on the morning, our friend texted us and he was like,
I've just seen that there's going to be a corgi parade on Columbia Road.
We had nothing to do.
I think if you've got kids, there's nothing to do, and you don't go to a corkie parade,
I think you really need to have a look in the mirror as to who. So the parade is very narrow, isn't it? It's just on the pavement.
It's a lot of weird footwear. Corgie owners aren't into fashion, are they?
No, they're into corgis. They're into corgis.
Yeah, it's just a few corgis walking. It's quite cute though, isn't it?
It was a lovely morning. I glad I of fly. The fly pass goes bang over our house as well because we're in East London.
Yeah, that was fun.
I quite enjoy it being called the Platy Jubes.
I like that.
Yeah, I thought I'd hate that.
I like the, yeah.
I don't like child's calling the queen mummy.
No, that's weird.
It really upsets me. Yeah, that's... Now, with mummy. Mommy, and it's the posh voice as well. Mommy.
It's horrible, isn't it?
Well, also, I'd say it as well.
Mommy.
Yeah, that's horrible. It's going through me like...
Um, yeah, mummy.
And I just, I've realized,
and I'm not massively into the Jubilee.
Like, I can't imagine.
You know, I can't, like, same way as like 50-year-old
blokes love Star Wars, I can't get me head round.
It's how people must look at me during a World Cup
and go, what is going on with you?
And no judgment, if't get into it, I can't work it out. I think it's people that love uniforms and stuff, but I just can't get me head in.
It's not for me.
I mean it's very convenient that Prince Andrew got COVID.
He's very, do you know what?
Interesting.
It's just, it's very, poor bloke.
the poor guy. He's already spent 12 million quid, paying a woman not to talk, and now this.
It's been a bad year. It's been a terrible year for him. Just think of him. Do you know
me? Just think of that poor guy. In other news, I was told this is a new one getting my daughter
dressed. She didn't want to wear these leggings because they were too dry. Too dry. Too dry. I'm not at that one before and I said do you want me to run
them under the tap? She was like what? I went well does mom get you dressed in
damp clothes? But what she meant was I think she meant they were a bit like a bit a bit like you know it's a bit new and a bit stiff and a bit itchy yeah yeah yeah I would say it was it it it it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too it was too, did you do the old, I've changed it and brought it back?
Yeah, did that, walked in her now.
Oh, another thing that may be laugh on this little trip to Portland was that our holiday
friends, their daughter does not eat bananas, hates bananas, but will eat
Ella's deliciously banana pouch that is 100% banana.
Oh, come on now.
Come on.
It was so funny.
Yeah, dad eat bananas.
Borrow he won't eat you.
I think what's it? He went 100% banana.
That's incredible.
Oh, this is another good one for the journey.
They're kept on badger me about how long the journey would be.
It's only about an hour from your house, isn't it?
I know, but they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they? But they? But they? But they? But they? But they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they? Oh, they? Oh, they? they? they? they? they? Oh. they? they? they? they? they? they? they? kept on badger me about how long the journey would be. It's only about an hour from your house, isn't it? I know, but they're like me, aren't they?
They don't sit still, they're not quiet.
So this is a great technique, I said.
I said, every time they ask me a question, I slow down.
And I go, oh, sorry, girls, I've got to slow down. to their their their their their their their their their, I' because, I've got, I've got, I've got, I've got, I've got, I've got their, I'm their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. tho, their. their. they're, they're, they're, they're, they're, they're they're they're they're they're they're they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they's. they's. they's. they. they. they. they. they. they. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. th. tho. to. to. toe. tooooo. tooooo. to. to. to. to. to. to. they're they're they're they're they're they got to go slower now. So what's your question? You can ask me as many questions as you want,
but just so you know, every time you ask you a question,
it will be an extra minute.
So just maybe think if you really need to know the answer.
That's great.
10 mile tale back in Kent.
10 miles.
So and then I'd go, oh, daddy, why tha, It's green because the trees are just green. It's going to be 15 minutes now. Daddy, where are my shoes?
They're on your feet.
16 minutes now.
Daddy, I'm hungry.
Not a question, but 17 minutes.
So I just did that and it got in their head.
And then I absolutely stoned.
And then I absolutely stitched up Lou.
And they said, tooo. I went no because I'll still be concentrating. So Lou got absolutely hammered. Ah yes yes Rob. So it's a good technique. I'm gonna say it driving is the
absolute win of the two roles of the two roles in the car driving is the win
I think because you can hide behind the driving as as stressful because
Rose doesn't drive she'll listen to this but I'll be honest she doesn't
realize it isn't that stressful.
So I can go, I've really got to concentrate on this.
Can I have a kit, I've driven all the way here, can I have a little lie down for 10 minutes
just because I've driven, actually, driven a car for an hour.
So like, I don't know if you see it, a big bit of metal about half a ton. I was like, I was like, I was operating I was operating I was operating I was operating I was operating I was operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating operating, I was operating, I was operating operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I was operating, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I was operating, I was operating, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm, I, I'm, I'm, I'm to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm to.

Yeah, exactly, yeah, but it's non-stop so I need a couple of hours just to catch up for
every hour drive and I need two hours upstairs on my own watching Tick Tock if that's okay.
Also what I like is when we go for a long drive and we stop at the garage and I put the petrol in, Lou the th goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes goes to the to the the to the the the to the to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the tho. the tooo. the toooooo. the the the toooo. the the too. too it just oh do you mind handing me a sandwich and she gets it out the packet for me

They were at so many 50-year-old wreck heads.
Oh my God, just people like reliving.
Yeah, what was the kind of demographic?
Stone Island and then sometimes humans were aware in it.
Just all I could see was a sea of stone eye.
It's basically Stone Island and some people.
Bucket at.
Bucket at's as far as I can see.
I can't believe I'm saying tha I'm saying tha I'm saying thying tha th saying th saying th saying th saying th saying th saying th saying th saying th saying'm saying this. People need to move on from the 90s, Rob. You'd have no career! You wouldn't sell a ticket!
No, Bucket Hats are back in, they're actually back in high fashion.
Are they? Did you do that?
Um, well, no, this is what, I was being to look about this, and they were already on their way in, and then I wore it, the football and the football, and people people people, and then, the football, and then, their, and then, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, th.. We, th. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. C. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. too. to. to. too. to.the football so it's basically sort of laddy culture peaked at the same time as the high
fashion bucket hat because I, but yeah no I don't think I brought it in but I think I've
have nudged it along do I mean because I went viral as a piss head.
Do you know what though? We're in a bucket hat want to get troubled by people. And now it's your thing, so it draws
attention to you. Yeah, it's so, yeah, because I wore it because it's the biggest hat you
can cover your face so like I was going to football, but actually if anything, it became
my calling card. Exactly. Exactly. catchphrase now. You are pissed at the Euros. Any chicken might have been to... Any chicken might have been tonight? Why don't you?
Fuck off. But it's great, it's just great to meet the fans. What's that, mate?
Yeah, why don't you, fuck off. Yeah, love me to meet you, mate. Yeah, it's just great to be around all the guys from the euros. Here he is, KFC, F F you and then, oh yeah, okay.
Oh man, a lie.
That's fine, it was great actually, I don't know what I'm saying that was great.
Yeah, no, no, no, no, yeah.
Should we do some Instagrams and small business shout-out?
Our reasons for getting called into school was asking about this, weren't we?
Hi guys, I have a story about the phone call parents get from schools. My friend has identical twin boys and she got a phone call from the nursery to say
one of them had been bitten by one of the other children at preschool.
He was okay but they had to inform her.
She asked which child had bitten him and they said unfortunately they couldn't tell her
but they were dealing with the situation.
They never they never grass a bite her.
They're not allowed told to ask, they're not allowed to tell you. My friend said she fully understood, but knowing what her two-ins could be like,
she asked whether it was his brother who had bitten him.
The nursery again said, sorry we can't tell who she said,
she got off the phone and a mere five seconds later from the nursery to say,
her to to say to say the other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say, her to say, her to say, her other to say, her other to say to say to say to say, her other other other to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say to say, she was to say, she was to say, she was to say, her to say, her to say, her to say, her to say, her to say, her to say, her to say, her to say, she, she, her to say, she to say, she the nursery. She said, I wonder who that could have been.
It was exactly as she predicted. He had bitten his brother and the preschool said that to follow protocol and call each of the children's parents.
That's incredible. Totally failing to acknowledge this was the same person.
That is so good.
Vicky from Manchester.
That's absolutely brilliant.
That is a good one, isn't it?
Yeah.
Twin boys must be absolutely mental.
Here we've got another one.
On why parents get called into the school,
my mom got called in by my brother's teacher
because my brother told his class that my dad had stabbed an owl in the kitchen. What? My brother was only six at the time and he's still convinced they
happened 25 years later. Oh my God. It definitely didn't from at Folkston Girl.
These are great these. My son was about 12 and in high school in about 1996 I got called in by the
head of year. The boy had printed photos of a scantic-cut lady was selling them for one pound each. Oh wow.
The school admired his entrepreneurial skills but couldn't allow it to go on.
I was absolutely mortified 12 year old pallon baron. He had detention I banned the
computer for a month the longest month of my life. So poor old.
Oh wow! 1996 as well. That would take an ages to print off. Yeah,
and he's really nailed like the internet early doors. I think one quid was, a quid is quite
cheap. Do you think in 1996? Well for how much printer ink is having a computer in a printer
and he's had to print that off in the front room in 96. They was as big as a fridge computers just in the front room, in the front room, everyone looking. Yeah, heating up in the corner as he prints out a picture
of, you know, a clever Joe guest. In the background, just printing off his bone. Just do some
coursework, mummy. There we go. Right, more tied than Josh. Let's finish with a more tired than Josh.
I've got, I'll say what, I'll do more tired than Josh than finish on a celeb in weird
places.
Hi Rob, Josh and Michael, the kids are currently age 2, 5 and 8, and the youngest is
an absolute twit for waking up in the night.
I am in a glorious sleeping position, Rob. Yeah, do you remember the two weeks when your child starts to walk and they're absolutely fucking knackered?
Oh right, yes, because they're getting rid of that energy!
And suddenly you're like, this is incredible, but I remembered this happened last time and
then they get used to walking.
Yeah.
He slept at 8.30 this morning.
Oh, just enjoy it already worried about missing it. So that's your problem, isn't it?
As soon as you get to Glastonbury, as soon as you get to Glastonbury, you're going to be thinking about it finishing.
Oh, don't Rob, I was thinking about that the other day I was thinking, so what am I going to look forward to then? It's like Christmas. I used to cry on Christmas night every year because I was sad sadd to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to the to to the their to to their to to to their s s their their s' to to to to their their their s' their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their tha. Asgastastuasuasuasuasuasuasuasuasuasuasuasuask. thauasuask. thuask. As clauasuask. As soon. As soon. As soon I can deal with it. It's so hard to be in the moment, isn't it?
But it's so what you have to do.
I was thinking like the moment Paul McCartney plays that last song,
and I know what it's going to be, because I've obviously looked at all his set
lists on tour because I'm all over that kind of boring. So what's his the final. the final. the final. the final. the final. the final. th. th. th. th. th. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's.

It's Golden Slumbers followed by Carrie that way and then a song called The End.
And I see I don't know and I I wouldn't like hold my end and all them ones. Yeah, he does.
He's so quick though. They're only two minutes, isn't I? He's got to fill two and a half hours mate. Yeah, he's gotthe. He's got he's got he's got he's got he's got he's got he's got he's got he's got he. He's got their. He's got their. He's got to to to their their to feel. He's got their only. He's got to feel.

That's all right. You're very tunful this morning. Am I? Joe White, it's Liam Gallagher,
I watched him and thought, I reckon I can sing. I'm joking, it was good. It was good.
So this is someone who's got no sleep and you're gloating about your sleep and going
to Glastonbury. Here we go. So the youngest is a twat for waking up in the night. One night this week I basically drove home from work on fumes as I didn't
have a chance to stop for diesel or the nursery kids club would be shut. So I got to my usual
petrol station for 6.30 a.m. the today on the way to work so I'd be on time. I went to get diesel out and the pump didn't work. Tried another pump and only got a bit out, then stopped again.
The pump was making a weird noise as I was spilling diesel all down myself and on the floor.
Oh my God.
I was getting increasingly ragy and shouting and swearing, fucking come on!
I only had three hours sleep. So I got in the car and drove to the next pump or I did the same. Then another, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, then, the the the the the the their, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, I was spe, was splou, was splu, was splu, was splu.e.easeaseaseaseaseaseaseaseaseaseasea, I was spl, I was splou, I was spl, I was spl the manager stuff. Then it transpired. I had eight to ten different transactions of diesel
to pay for, ranging from 89P up to £3.40. Then sent a woman out and a high-vis to see what
the issue was and she had the same problem as me. I thought great. Finally they're going to listen to me. She said, I think your tank is full.
No, oh my God. I argued with her. She's covered in diesel and she's trying to fill up a full
tank. I argued with her, then got in the car and turned on the ignition, full tank. Turns out my husband, turns out my husband filled it out without me knowing the night before,
and I'd full on imagined the empty fuel light when I got in the car.
Oh my God.
Now that's not living in the moment, isn't it?
That is living in your head, mortified from a very tied Claire in Manchester. And when I got into work in a children's hospital,
oh, this gets work, poor, she's working, bless her.
People kept saying to me, can you smell petrol all day?
Because she was covered in petrol.
Oh, sure.
Surely, that's a safety issue, isn't it?
I think you've got a clear, Claire in Manchester.
Tiredness is not an excuse to be covered in petrol and their know go to a children's hospital. It's not allowed.
Poor Claire.
Oh my word.
Brutal.
Right.
Celebs in weird places?
Inject into my veins, Rob.
On a secondary school trip to Italy, my friends and I spotted Lawrence Noelle
in Boeing during our visit to Pompeii.
We found this a lot more exciting than the actual place. At the time we found wee it wee it wee it wee it wee wee wee wee we-we- th th th th th th th th th th th tho thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, the, the, the, their the, the, the the tho-in's tho-in's th. tho-in's tho-in's tho-in's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th the the the the the, the, the. the. the. the. the. the. the. got a picture with him somewhere. I took on my disposable camera. To this day I still think
of him whenever I see anything about Pompeii. Kate, Mumta Brindley, two and a half and thea
nine weeks. I do think I think you do have to, it's a cross you bear. If you're going to be be in the public eye, you do have to just just just just just just just to just, you have to just, you have to just, you have to just, you have to just, you have to just, you have to just, you have to just, you to just, you're to just, you're to just, you're to just, you're to just to just to just to just to just to have to just to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th thi. thi. thia. the thia. thia. thia. thia. thia. thia. thia. thia. thi quick, but not if I'm like, to be fair, when I went
to Frozen, did I tell you I went to Frozen with the girls?
I saw it on your, uh, on your wife since today.
Oh yeah, it's amazing.
A bit of a slow start though.
I loved it.
It's a mate, Samantha Barks is so good. Everyone else was great. I've been to the the the they. I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I've to see. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm to see. I've to see.

I'm to to to to to to to to see to to to see to to see to to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see to see loads of the theatre shows and I can sing well with Samantha Barks, just a level above. It's like like the Tizzi at Southampton.
Yeah, well let's hope it doesn't go the same way.
Yeah, I don't think she's got those views.
That's a bad example.
It was like when Burkamp arrived at Arsenal, just differently.
Yeah, yeah, she took a while to set up the story but I felt like who the fuck has gone to see frozen and it's their first time I've seen frozen? Surely you know like the
amount of times my daughter said where's Olaf I was like fuck nose but we
need him soon but yeah no that was really good but any but thou' was a try to
that was really good but that was rubledn't that the crowd I but I don't yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that that that that that that that that that that th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was that was th th th th th th th th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th tho's tho's tho's the tho's they they. they. the they. the the the they. thooooo's the the the the thoooo's th through with my daughters through like the crowds, can I get a picture? I was a bit like, you can, but we're trying to get out of a busy
building here. But I don't mind pictures, but I think it's rude to say no, unless you're...
What do you tell you? Yeah, my daughter can't quite understand why people would want a picture, they're today, well, my youngest, eldest, and I'm, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'm, but, but, but, I'm, but, I'm, but, I'm, but, but, I'm, but, I'm, I'm, but, I'm, but, I'm, I'm, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I's, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm. pictures, I'm, I'm. th. th. th. th. th th th th th tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. tha. photo, but I don't want them in the photo, but I don't want them to think I don't want them in a photo,
but I don't want strangers having photos of like all my kids.
So it's difficult.
But when I'm on my own, I think it's all, it because you're the public eye but when I'm on my own you know all day every day she sometimes
when you're like once it was Christmas Eve and I was doing the big shot with both kids I don't know
how Lou managed to wangle that I think she'd there's that thing in there in your house's one of mine. But I had a one-year-old.
It was when I had one kid, I had a one-year-old in,
because we thought, you totally the house,
if I take the one-year-old, if I strap him in the trolley,

Selling the Portishead. I thought that was a band. It is a band. They're named after the place.
Each child is matched with an older person and receives an arts and crafts
pack every month. Both the child and older person create pictures and fill out questionnaires and post them back to us to swap with everyone receiving their
new friends masterpieces in the post the next pack that follows that month.
They also receive a friendship folder to store everything and creating a
lovely record of their friendship as the months go by.
