Best bloody gift you've ever been given in your life, that surname.
Oh, that is the rankest thing ever.
You are welcome.

E, do you know what?

Like, I read newspapers and that.
It was on Instagram, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, so you need to fix that.
I saw a post. Yeah, no, I didn i saw a post yeah no i read you know what i mean as soon as you say i

it still reading you know everyone goes on about reading so good for you i read all the time oh
yeah i read road signs um uh logos on people's jumpers i I'm always reading them. Yeah, me too. Labels.
How long do you keep things?
No, I read something.
I look at the little green men when I press a button
and it goes to the red man
or the green man.
Oh, well done.
You haven't crossed a road in years.
You lose a guess.
I don't cross roads.
So, I read something somewhere
on the internet
that isn't it shit
that a woman has to go by
loads of different names
but a man is just a mister.
So, a woman, you either miss,
miz,
misses.
But a man's just mister.
It's because you can't make your fucking mind up,
can you, sweetheart?
Hey!
Sweet... Hey!
Sweetheart!
That's disgusting.
Isn't that shit, though?
Isn't that so shit?
It is weird, like, yeah.
Is it... I heard, ooh, I heard.
And then the fact that we have to change our name is gross.
Yeah, no, well, yeah, but in your case, you know, it was an improvement.
Ooh, I'm named after a season.
Grow up.
Now listen.
I'm watching, this is something really different, right?
And I'm not going to tell you.
So don't listen then.
No, no, sorry, okay.
Sorry, no, go on.
Go on, go on, go on.
I've got a thing for you
cross my finger
so I remember what it is
remember what it is
right okay
oh you've got skin cheese
oh both got skin cheese
I'm watching a program
in a minute
I'm not going to tell you
what it is
but it's actually
an old series
of a sort of
it's not Real Housewives
but it's very similar right
why are you telling people
what it is
because I don't want to
offend the people
who are in it
right okay
so I'm going to
slag them off
oh fantastic
no it's fine
I'm on board with this
I'll have a watch I'll slag them off have a watch they're all married to famous uh like well-known athletes
right and one of them they've been together for 11 years yeah engaged for 11 years they've got a
child together and um they were they just set a date for the wedding sent out the save the dates
and everything and the guy is just like no don't want to do it really and it's on
the tv program and she's like he's just changed his mind i'm devastated and he's like it's just
not the right time you know and you're like wow engaged for 11 years that i mean that is really
you know waiting for the i mean what's the what's the waiting list for your venue
11 years that's a long engagement and i just thought i just found it dead sad because she
was just and then i think i don't know if they're still together, but you know when you're like, someone did that to me, I'd literally be like, see you later, mate.
What's the difference though? It's not like he's changing his name. It's not like he's changing or losing anything.
I think you'll lose half of his income, Chris.
That's what he'll lose.
So he needs a pre-nuptial agreement.
You know, you're getting into territory
there that I
don't know
about but
who would
you sign it
I don't know
and it's just
mad and I'm
like oh gosh
is this really
awful to say
no no well I
think there's a
bit especially
in America it's
a big big thing
about if you
marry it you
know I think
I've read a
thing I saw
a post
I saw a post
I was watching
TikTok
so now I'm
either gonna
right either way it's quite an interesting statistic and it's quite an impressive statistic but I think I saw a post. Oh, you saw a post. I saw a post. I was watching TikTok. So now, I'm either going to, right,
either way, it's quite an interesting statistic
and it's quite an impressive statistic.
But I think it couldn't have been seconds.
It has to be minutes.
I think I'm going to go with minutes.
It said every three minutes in America,
someone gets divorced.
What?
That's what it said.
That's not far off.
Babies being born.
It wasn't seconds.
That was crazy.
Yeah, it's minutes.
No, because every minute a baby's born, isn't it?
In the UK.
Now, with the babies thing, I can get it.
But with minutes, every three minutes,
if they say every three minutes someone gets divorced,
even at night,
who's getting divorced at four in the morning?
So is it like, is that 95?
Is it in the world or is it just America?
It was just America.
It was a poster.
Look, right.
Everyone calm yourselves down.
This is a spurious post
that I only half remember seeing.
Might have been pissed
when I saw it.
I don't think it's every three minutes.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
Where's me Google?
Me Google?
Right, I'm going to me Google it.
Hold on.
That's sad, isn't it?
Eh?
Well, the point I was getting at
was there are a lot of,
you know, it's about money a lot of time hold on right no okay i don't know right i've got right there's a story
about a couple who got divorced after just three minutes that's annoying i could use that on extra
extra forget you heard that right they got divorced after being married for three minutes? Now that I'm on a bramble now.
What?
Hey, can we talk about these?
These are the most indecisive people in the world.
How can you get divorced after three minutes?
Why?
Surely it took longer than that to get to the place where you get divorced.
Jesus.
Couple divorce after three minutes when Kuwaiti bride trips and husband calls her stupid,
promoting his wife to have the marriage annulled immediately.
What?
The marriage reportedly became the shortest
ever in history. In the history of Kuwait
local media said that the woman slipped while
on her way out of the courthouse and her husband called
her stupid before she asked the judge
to annul the marriage.
That is mad.
That is.
She was already, they'd had an argument
in the morning
that was
that's a boil
that's bubbling over
that's wonderful
that's not a one little
that's not a one off
that's fucking wonderful
Jesus
give us one sec
to try and type this properly
no it's just
it's giving us that fucking story
anyway the moral of the story is
I'm watching it
and I'm currently watching it
at the minute
I just think
I just think she's staying with him for the money,
and I just find it a bit sad.
Well, all I was going to say was,
in America, it is a massive thing of like,
you know, a lot of people get divorced in America.
Obviously more people than here,
but there is more people.
But I think the statistics are higher
of how many people get divorced.
And it's, yeah,
it's a lot of the time it's about money.
I don't know,
signing a thing before you get married,
it always seems a bit weird to me.
It always seems like,
oh, I love you. Isn't this a fairy tale? Sign this so you won't take my money. thing before you get married, it always seems a bit weird to me. It always seems like, oh, I love you.
Isn't this a fairy tale?
Sign this, it won't take me money.
I love you too.
Like, do you know what I mean?
Because then you could say part of his success could be down to her for being together
for the last 11 years, her facilitating him.
And it's really...
As a man, I'm not going to...
I bet you wouldn't.
As a man, I'm not going to bother with that.
I bet you wouldn't.
I believe, as a man, I believe he was out grafting don't believe that. I bet you wouldn't. As a man, I'm not going to bother with that. I bet you wouldn't. I believe, as a man,
I believe he was out grafting,
doing the hard graft,
and she was honestly swanning about,
gallivanting,
lolloping.
Great.
Lazing.
Great.
Well, I believe...
In fact, if I hadn't just turned the Wi-Fi off
and closed Google,
I would have got more words from Thesaurus.com
to put my point across and irritate you even more.
I believe that she's probably been his therapist
for 11 years.
Right, okay.
So she's owed every penny
but it's just really sad to watch.
Anyway,
why do we get onto this?
Because you were trying to,
it's like,
I don't know.
Anyway, listen.
Talking about Mrs. and Mr.
Can I tell you the thing
I learned yesterday?
Yes.
Because yeah,
you were talking about
Mrs. and Mrs. and stuff.
It went all off piece.
Sorry guys.
And it's called WAGS
if you want to watch it.
Fucking hell. it's called wags if you want to watch it fucking hell the whole
fucking hell
you shrouded the entire
thing in mystery
listen
it's her thing actually
everybody watch it
she might get more money
on her
it's her thing innit
it's not going to have
anything to do with him
I'm not a boarder
she sounds very
all I've heard about
this lady so far
is that she's just
money grabbing
no she's actually not
I'm joking
I'm completely joking listen what I i was gonna say you you you
said oh my god no one gives a fuck what you said was that mrs and and i was speaking to someone
yesterday i was i'm doing it i've just filmed a couple of days on a tv show uh i'm so sorry i
can't i'm not allowed to say what it is yet but it's a quiz show so the guy
one of the people said to someone else
oh mate I like your shirt
and the lad was wearing the shirt
went oh it's not a shirt technically it's a blouse
and I went sorry
and he went yeah the buttons are the other way
so the buttons go like a woman's
so do you know the reason
the buttons go the other way i've never
known why why did they told us this lad and it's like my exact point when he told us i went wow
wasn't the past sexist that's what i said okay what was it for oh they're gonna make me mad
no so they go one way on a woman's so what do they go they go right over left on a woman's yeah
right over left so right over left and they go left over left on a woman's, yeah. Right over left. No, no. So right over left is a blouse.
And they go left over right on a man's because historically,
the woman would do up the man's buttons
so they're the other way around on his
so that her doing it is the same for her
so she can still do it.
Oh!
Oh!
Oh, God!
I could vomit and kick something.
Isn't that unbelievable?
That is disgusting
yeah
so that's why
so it's right over left
on a woman's shirt
slash blouse
and then a man's shirt
is left over right
because the woman
would do the man's shirt
because the stupid woman
wouldn't be able to do
a button the other way
because one
obviously she wouldn't
be able to do it
the other way
it's such
in reverse
her doing his
would be the same
that's awful
that's awful that's
do you know
I always think
that I might have
loved being in the past
I don't think I would have
no
it wouldn't have lasted a day
I told you man
imagine
we've went over this
millions and millions of times
whenever you see someone
having sex on Downton Abbey
or Game of Thrones
or Outlander
the stink
their cocks and fannies
are fucking lifting
I know
I know
honestly
you whip your pants down
and pastry crumbles
like you're bit into a your pants down and pastry crumbles like you're bit
into a sausage
roll in the wind
now listen
it's a skin
and flake
it's a breath
for me man
that's what I
couldn't deal with
and the BO
yeah yeah yeah
what were we
watching the other
day

bodies and there
was a sex scene
in 1890 and all
I could think was
it fucking stinking

Anyway, guys,
thank you so much for being here.

We can't thank you enough.
And without further ado, it is time to tell you that it is episode 242

This week's sponsor is...
Queuing right up someone's arse.
Oh!
Hey.
Oh, yes.
Hey, are you in a queue?
Hey, has the person in front of you moved half an inch?
Then you better fill that gap so you can smell the fucking shampoo.
Yeah.
Eh?
Because we all know the closer you stand to the person in front,
the faster you'll get to the front.
Yeah.
Happened to me at Asda Cafe a couple of weeks ago.
Happened to me the day at the mini golf.
Went to the mini golf at the metro centre.

I will never go to mini golf
in half term ever again.
Oh, it was unbelievable.
It was just awful.
It was just...
Like, it was so busy.
Yeah.
So busy that you didn't actually get time.
I didn't take my turns.
No.
You shouldn't have got me that bat.

No, what's it called?
It's 100% called a bat.

Good old man.
Or were you wanting the word putter?
I don't know.
What's putting in?
A putter.
It's called a putter.
The one you had was called a putter,
and it's for putting a ball in a hole.
Anyway, I'll never go in half term again.
It was too busy.
It was too busy.
It was too busy and you were rushed, rushed around that course.
People up your backside.
When someone's up your arse in a queue.
I know.
Honestly, I've started walking backwards into them. I've started leaning backwards and walking backwards into them.
And then they're like...
And I'm like, well, fucking fuck off then.
I just don't think anyone's got any spatial awareness.
And also, people don't have spatial awareness in cars.
The amount of time, right? The amount of time people are at my backside in a car,
and I'm like, oh, fuck this, so I move over.
And then they move over as well, and you go,
oh, you just can't drive.
You're just up my backside.
You think that's how close you drive to someone.
Yeah, you think this is a cue.
Yeah, I think you're wanting to get past us, but you know,
you just drive up people's arses.
Can't bear it.
Mad, isn't it?
Can't bear it.
Yeah, I do. I think, oh, hey, they want to go these, and then drive up people's arses. Can't bear it. Mad, isn't it? Can't bear it. Yeah, I do.
I think, oh, hey, they want to go these.
And then, yeah.
Unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
But listen, if someone's queuing right up your arse,
just don't move.
Sometimes I don't move.
Sometimes I don't move.
I let the person in front of us go miles ahead,
and I'll stand there.
And then obviously they go,
excuse me, the queue's moved.
And you move, and then they're right up your arse.
And then sometimes I try and I move like little inches, little inches, and they move again. And I move millimeters moved and you move and then they're right over here and then sometimes sometimes i try and i move like little inches little inches and they move again and i move
millimeters and they move again i think it's a british thing get the fuck out of my anal cavity
you impatient shithead i think it's a british thing i'll never this is one of them things from
when i was younger and i can't remember how old i was i think i was a teenager and there was a program on the telly i'm sure we've talked about this but it would have been
a long long time ago where they they were in a hotel and they filmed loads of different
nationalities in a hotel do you remember this i don't think you've told me about this have i not
no sure i have um and culturally they're just culturally it just showed all different
nationalities in this hotel and it kind of showed like the breakfast buffet.
British are like all queuing.
I think it might have been Japanese who just didn't queue at all,
who just went to the front.
And then obviously everyone else is like kicking off.
And then it was like the German people who were getting naked in the shower
around the pool.
It was so interesting.
Because obviously I don't think they told them what it was for.
But it was just to watch how...
Sorry, naked in the shower around the pool?
Yeah.
So that was a thing.
Some of them were like,
oh, you just wash your bollocks in the shower?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm not having that, like...
Yeah.
It was so interesting.
Naked in the breakfast buffet, I can understand.
Just to see how people...
And so I think there was something happened at check-in
and it was the way that different nationalities reacted
to something going wrong.
It was really interesting.
Wow.
It was in the 90s I was on.
Oh, yeah.
Absolutely doesn't sound like they'd make that now,
let's be perfectly honest.
But I think the Q&A thing...
Guys, look, it's not racist.
We're just saying celebrate the differences.
No, no one's different.
Everyone's the same.
No, we're all exactly the same.
Sometimes it's quite fun to celebrate the differences,
especially culturally.
No!
God, no!
Turn it off!
Please!
What's that?
Is that me?
Whoa, what's that behind us?
What the fuck is that?
It's your shadow, mate.
You're scared of your own shadow.
Oh, okay.
Traditions.
Nobody has any traditions.
We all end up with the same.
No one does stuff differently.
No, yeah, they do sometimes.
You're so right.
You're not allowed to celebrate.
American comedy's got it right.
American comedy's got it right.
American comedians, standard comics comics especially that can discuss different races and
different cultures and do it in and celebrate the differences in a funny way in britain you
literally mention anything you go oh there was a french guy and everyone's oh fuck he said what's
he gonna do what's he gonna do he's gonna do the accent oh god who's he sending home he's not
sending anyone home he's not saying any that he's just oh god i know it's a lot in it i mean will this even stay in probably not
happy halloween fuck off with happy halloween
do you know someone said someone genuinely at the tv show robin made us a fucking happy
halloween card like it's mother's Day when our 8 year old
gave me a happy Halloween card this morning
every fibre of my being
every fibre of my being wanted to go
you're fucking joking aren't you
Halloween card, get in the bin
listen, they might have had a bit of free time at school
you know, they were
filling in them lessons
an adult, a grown adult said happy Halloween to me yesterday
no they didn't
and I said fuck off with that
my actual answer was fuck off with that.
My actual answer was, fuck off with that.
Wow.
Yeah, I think he was half joking.
Okay.
But yeah.
Oh, happy Halloween.
Oh, God. We normally do a Halloween special, but I just didn't.
I forgot.
I totally forgot.
I'm sick of people trying to make it a thing.
Well, Halloween.
I've had enough.
I've fully had enough.
Although I went through Newcastle City Centre last night,
and there was loads of people.
I got off the train.
There was loads of people out dressed off the train there was loads of people
out dressed up
but I get it
it was students
all just dressed up
on a night out
but I kind of get that
we've all done that
I kind of get that
I think if anything
Halloween is for just
a fancy dress night out
yeah
but oh
I last night
turned the gate off
yes
turned all of the lights off
yes
at one point
we were in
because Robin can't be left on his own
anywhere in the house at the minute like he follows you around like a bad he's watched
something or someone at school has said something to him like a ghost story or something stupid
he's scared i was like that at home though he's scared of stuff anyway oh have i never told you
about when my mates came around once and uh we went to my bedroom and one of them was sitting on my bed and he looked like, he must have,
I don't believe in ghosts or anything like that, right?
This could be a little Halloween story for you, actually,
with it being a Halloween special.
Should I do a...
No, no, absolutely not. Stop it.
No, no, no. Absolutely not. No.
Halloween. Halloween.
So I went upstairs and he was sitting, like, we all went up
and he went up a couple of minutes before me
and he was sitting on my bed and he looked like really like
coy
like shocked
like
he just didn't look himself
and he'd only been up
for a couple of minutes
and he was like
I'll never forget his face
and I went
I was like
you alright
and he was like
oh I've just seen
a little boy
behind your door
and that's how
it was built in 2002
but it wasn't
one it wasn't built
in 2002
I moved there when I was six
I don't know
I moved there when I was six
two it was built on an old school it was built on Redwell School but it wasn't one it wasn't built in 2002 I moved there when I was six I don't know I moved there when I was six two
it was built
on an old school
oh
it was built on Redwell School
okay
so
I never forgot it
I never forgot it
it was really weird
when he said it
and then he never
really mentioned it again
he mentioned it a couple
of times at school
ages after
and then I was like
really
and he was like yeah
but he never like
egged it loads
so I don't know
if he was mature enough
to do that kind of wind up
does that make sense
I don't believe in it at all
but it was
it was really strange
that he
he did it like
I think some people
do save spirits
he wound it up
he wound us up
the way an adult
would wind someone up
it wasn't a kid
winding someone up
when it was man
it was
believers
believers
believers
he kind of just
mentioned it a couple of times
oh yeah maybe Rob one of Robin's friends has said something daft it was believers believers believers he kind of just mentioned it a couple of times oh yeah
maybe Rob
one of Robin's friends
has said something daft like that
I mean he's kind of
maybe Robin says things
that we don't
yeah
I doubt it very much
well two
two Halloweeny things
I've got to tell you last night
so you were away last night
so I shut the gate off
because
I can't be honest
people come at the door
um
Ralph was in bed
that's the spirit
yeah I tried it last year
no one came so I just thought fuck it I'm not doing it this year I was in my dressing room's the spirit. Yeah, I tried it last year and no one came
so I just thought,
fuck it, I'm not doing it this year.
I was in my dressing room
getting ready.
Robin came in
because he can't be on his own
and he just sat on the,
he was reading
while I was washing my face,
had all the lights on
and I could hear people,
like kids outside
and I was like,
oh fuck,
because I'd literally
just turned the lights on
and then Robin was full on
opening the window.
I was like,
stop knocking out the window!
So the blatant scene where then I turned all the lights off.
It was ridiculous.
Second thing, shit me pants.
We've got all glass downstairs, haven't we?
Like in the dining room, it's all glass.
Never, ever happened before.
Only happened on Halloween night when I was already shitting myself.
Robin was walking behind us.
I genuinely thought it was someone outside in the pitch black.
His reflection. His reflection. Shit me pants. Wow. Shit me pants. was walking behind us I genuinely thought it was someone outside in the pitch black he's reflection
he's reflection
shit me pants
wow
shit me pants
like actual
actual shit
you know what
no but you know
what it made us think
what
I got scared
not like a ghost
I thought it was
somebody outside
and it made us feel
the scared of how
I would feel
if anyone ever was there
right okay
and I thought
oh I didn't like that
I understand
do you know what I mean
because you always think
what would I do?
When I got out of the taxi last night
at about half past 11,
there was kids going down the street
dressed as skeletons.
What was that all about?
Kids going down our street
dressed as skeletons
on a mobility scooter.
One of the weirdest things
I've ever seen in my life.
Laughing their heads off,
having a great time.
But I was like...
How old were they?
13, 14.
Was one of them
needed the mobility scooter?
No, they didn't need it.
It was definitely an elderly relative's mobility scooter no they didn't need it it was definitely
an elderly relative's
mobility scooter
and they were literally
going down the street
on a dress of skeletons
they'd either stole it
I don't know what was going on
and I thought
I can't be arsed here
did you not ask
oh
what part of you
thinks I have
the confidence
to go up to a group
of 14 year old girls
oh you said there was only two
there was three of them
oh and go what are you doing on that-year-old girls Oh, you said there was only two? There was three of them. Oh.
And go,
what are you doing on that mobility scooter?
All right, man.
Oh, look at you.
You know what would happen?
They'd call us a pedo
and I'd run away scared.
So I could hear them as well.
Yeah.
I thought it was the same kids from...
Oh, it might have been the same ones from earlier on
and they didn't answer the door.
There's a hell of a battery on that mobility scooter
if they were going around that long.
Where have they got that scooter from?
No idea.
Who in the street has a mobility scooter? Could be loads around that way where have you got that scooter from no idea who in the street
has a mobility scooter
could be loads of people
I don't know
we would know
how would we know
I just would
I would have seen someone
yeah
surely
oh mysteries

intro

take a babadoo bat
in there somewhere
and break it up

nice to talk about
I think we've

I've got
I tell you what
I've got one thing
I've got one thing
a little sort of
moral dilemma
I had last night so I was on one thing I've got one thing a little sort of moral dilemma I had last night
so I was on the train
on the way back
and a lady
next to us
dead quick question
what were you watching
on the train
nothing why
I was just wondering
why
I was just wondering
I don't know
just you like
really pointed at us
really axiatory there
when he asked us that
I was playing on
I was playing on
the Nintendo Switch
I was playing on
Super Mario Wonder
oh
what headphones did you wear?
I've managed to get my AirPods working.
So I didn't know if AirPods worked with Nintendo Switches
and what turns I would do.
But the only headphones that I've got in the house
that I've got a normal headphone jack on,
apart from these podcast ones,
is Robin's Mario headphones.
So there was a part where I thought,
I'm going to have to wear Robin's Mario headphones.
Father of the year Christopher
bought
for his birthday
we got Robin
the new game
the new Mario game
Mario Wonder
yeah father of the year
Chris said to Robin
on Sunday before he left
Robin
you know how you're not
allowed to go on your switch
during the week after school
could I
I was obviously
vomiting in my mouth
because I thought
this is my grown
man husband
saying this to me
eight year old
could daddy please borrow
your new
I can't even say it
could daddy please borrow
your new Mario game
to play on the train
fuck me
disgusting
and Robin bless him
lovely was like
yeah of course he can
and then he came up to me
after and he went
I can't believe you're with him
and I said mate
is that what he said imagine that imagine he probably up to me after and he went, I can't believe you're with him. And I said, mate. Is that what he said?
Imagine that.
Imagine.
He probably would.
You should be embarrassed.
Your husband just bought an eight-year-old's game.
Pathetic.
Oh, Chris, that was rank, though.
So you played on the Switch on the train?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Way there, way back.
Made it absolutely fly, mate.
Did it?
Absolutely fly.
Listen, so I'm sitting on the table,
and then on the chair,
and I've got a little table in front of us,
and then straight across the aisle, a woman was chair, and I've got a little table in front of us, and then literally straight across the aisle,
a woman was sitting and she lay down across her two chairs.
So her head was on the seat closest to me.
Right.
And she fell asleep.
Her feet were at the window.
Feet were at the window.
Head was closest to the aisle.
That's weird.
Her head was right next to us when she was asleep.
It was really, really strange.
Do you understand what I mean?
I'm across the aisle from her, though.
Yeah, but so she's leaving her head at... her head's at the aisle at the trolley end
yeah head's trolley end why don't know loudest snoring oh she was snoring yeah loudest snoring
i've ever heard in public and really i just i was just sitting thinking what's the etiquette here
and i'm looking and a few people are looking and I'm thinking, can you, could you go, like, give her a shake and go,
would you shut the fuck up?
Or, because if someone was sitting there going,
ah!
Gnaw!
Gnaw!
Like, growling.
I'd go, mate.
I did not see that noise coming.
No, but do you know what I mean?
Is that what it was like?
Like, yeah, slimming out of that, but a snore.
But if someone was growling.
Yeah. Or just going like, ha! Like, I would go, you fucking knock that on the head, mate. It's really loud. what it was like like yeah slimming out of that but a snore but if someone was growling yeah
or just going like
ha
like I would go
you fucking knock that
on the head mate
it's really loud
like
it's really irritating
you would
I probably wouldn't
like I just
I've sat through loads
on a train
I sat for so
I had to turn me
I had to turn the
Nintendo Switch up
because I couldn't
I could hear it snoring
and it was irritating
right okay
and just
because you were on a late train
though weren't you
you didn't get off the train
until 20 or 11 not late enough to be lying there it wasn't a sleep late train though weren't you you didn't get off the train until 20 or 11
not late enough
to be lying there
it wasn't a sleeper train
it wasn't middle
through the night train
it was late
you know
this was about
half past 10
10 o'clock
when she was doing it
but it was
oh no
how was it
but it was right next to us
and I just
I don't know what the
I don't know
I felt
it felt weird
right
and then
Newcastle was
and
everyone sort of looked
thinking give her a shake and see if this is her stop but I thought I'm not I'm fucking waking up right and then Newcastle was at the end and everyone sort of looked thinking
give her a shake
and see if this is her stop
but I thought
I'm not
you're fucking
waking up
and Edinburgh for all I care
you loud fucker
so what did she stay on
she woke up
she woke up
in what Newcastle
was her stop
yeah yeah
it actually
it actually terminated
Newcastle
but you know
you get me point
you get me point
I don't know what
the etiquette is there
I don't know
it's just weird
it's part of his thing
because you don't know
what her day has been like she might really need that cape exactly and then the other part is there. I don't know. It's part of his thing because you don't know what her day has been like.
She might really need that cape.
Exactly.
And then the other part is
you're in the public,
you know,
you're on the train.
What are you doing?
So I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It's just, you know,
it's just an interest.
Was she pissed?
She was snoring like she was pissed.
Right, okay.
She was snoring like someone was pissed.
Oh, she might have had
a really tough day.
Yeah.
I know.
She might have had some really bad news.
She just got pissed alright man
don't worry
don't
you
I don't know
I don't know
how to answer that
side note
my mate
when he was
when he was 16
used to work
at a paintballing place
in Durham
he used to get the train
back to Newcastle
I've never been
paintballing
really
no
wow
never
I get really
do you know what it is
I really don't like people chasing us.
Do you know we're raised...
Chris.
Me and the kids raced to the bath the other night, right?
And they raced after me.
Honestly, I fucking hated it.
I was...
Oh, no, stop!
Right, first of all...
I don't like it.
First of all, first of all,
I feel like you're confusing paintballing
with some kind of giant game of TIG. I didn't like that either of all first of all I feel like you're confusing paintballing with some kind of
giant game of TIG
I don't like that either
right it's not
why are people chasing you
yeah but you've got to run away
don't you
remember Quasar Laser
I shit me pants
at Quasar Laser
well this is
by the way it's back at
Shields you know
Quasar Laser
I've heard there's a laser
thing back yeah
so yeah but paintballing
is you don't
you know you shoot people
you don't chase people
you've got to run after
them though
you have to run after
people run after you to shoot you well why when they can shoot you why would you don't chase people you've got to run after them though you don't have to run after them people run after you
to shoot you
well why
when they can shoot you
why would you run
when your bullet flies faster
than you can run
oh well I might like it then
I would like that
but honestly
the lads chased after us
up the stairs
sorry
an eight year old
and a two year old
chased after you
upstairs and you were upset
no I wasn't upset
it was just the adrenaline
it got us to keep panicking
I didn't like it
I really didn't like it and then I actually said to them oh I don't upset. It was just the adrenaline. It got us to keep panicked. I didn't like it. Adrenaline. I really didn't like it.
Wow.
And then I actually said to them,
oh, I don't like people chasing us.
They didn't get it.
They didn't care.
Of course they didn't.
It's fucking weirdo.
I know.
I didn't like it at all.
Oh, I've just thought about having a glass of wine.
You've got a problem.
I know.
You've got a problem.
Your head's like a pinball machine today.
All I was going to say was,
so my mate,
he worked at a pinball thing in Durham.
Pinball.
Pinball.
Pinball thing in Durham.
He fell asleep on the train on the way back
and he woke up in Edinburgh.
It was the last train
and his dad had to get him a taxi
from Edinburgh to Newcastle.
Shut up.
He was in such, such bother.
His dad was raging.
Yeah.
It's not even a long train
from Durham to Newcastle.
Yeah, but he fell asleep on the train
and he woke up in Edinburgh.
But that's like,
that's,
we're talking, you know,
early noughties
here that's i that's a hell of a lot of money to fortune my dad would murder me taxi from edinburgh
to newcastle oh god early noughties hell on wasn't it like when your parents had to pay for anything
for you when you were younger wasn't it just the worst thing in the world?
If you did something wrong or you broke something and they had to pay for it,
it was just literally like, you have put us in debt.
You're going to have to repay our mortgage.
I must have told you once I got a £125 phone bill once.
Well, stuff like that, like when you mess on with stuff and you do stuff wrong.
Hell on. Was wrong. Hell on.
Was there?
Hell on.
Yeah.
I just remember my mum going,
I thought you got free minutes.
I thought they were free.
I thought your texts were free.
My mum and dad once paid,
I hope they don't mind me saying this,
paid off Kate's credit card
when she was younger
because she got in a bit of debt.
They've never not mentioned it.
It's literally brought up
all the time
quite right
quite fucking
right
I don't know
if she paid it back
actually
I'm probably owed
a bit of money
actually
with siblings
not one sibling
can't get more
than the others
right
so if I find out
that Kevin's
had something
off me dad
right
I will be
sniffing around
you're a grown woman with a family I don't care it's how it works me dad. Right. I will be sniffing around. You're a grown woman with a family.
That's how it works.
Me dad once bought me sister a gilet from Jules.
I know all about this gilet.
I don't think I fucking don't.
A gilet from Jules.
I think it might be about 45, 50 quid
when we were at Dalton Park.
And I found out and I was like,
I haven't had anything off my dad for a while.
But then he did get us something nice.
So I was like, right, fair enough. Need a spreadsheet, you but then he did get us something nice so I was like right fair enough
need a spreadsheet
you mate
counteract it
it is actually true
and I think everybody
else will be the same
who's got siblings
you can't give one
without the other
oh god we've got
all that to look
forward to
fuck's sake
it's true
well you can't
you physically can't
to the point of
where alright
okay so one of
our kids
one of them's got
a job paintballing
place in Durham
falls asleep
we've got to get
him a taxi back from Edinburgh so the other one is in kids, one of them's got a job paintballing place in Durham, falls asleep, we've got to get my taxi back from Edinburgh.
So the other one is, in sibling rules,
the other one's allowed to go, how much is that taxi?
Right, well, you owe me that money.
Maybe not straight away, but at some point,
if they do get in trouble and they'll go,
well, what about when such and such did that?
Trade it off.
Yeah.

okay okay got a good one here i wrote this down as soon as it happened right great i had barely
stopped the car safely to write this down because it was so ridiculous you ready you never stop the
car carefully you're a terrible driver wow but that's that's by the by. Wow. So,
Robin's birthday last week.
You know,
obviously he got up early.
He was very excited.
We had a morning
and then we went out
and we went to pick up
his little cousin
and we'll take them out
for the day
to the golf,
the mini golf
and trampoline park
and all that stuff.
We're in the car on the way.
I had a protein bar
that I was eating.
I said to Robin,
I said,
do you want half of this protein bar?
And you went, Chris, no.
No, man.
Full of sugar.
It's too early for me to have something like that.
Full of sugar.
And I went, right, okay.
It's got protein in it, though.
It's like, you know, for these little tummy proteins good for me.
It's full of sugar.
No, you just bloody eat it.
What are you doing?
Trying to give the kid protein bar, 10 o'clock, full of sugar.
Full of sugar, that.
The exact way I meant, full of sugar.
That was the exact way. Rubbish, that. A load of rubbish. full of sugar full of sugar that the exact way full of sugar that was the exact way
rubbish that
load of rubbish
full of sugar
okay
about five minutes later
we pulled over
to a service station
on the way to the
medical centre
because you were worried
because when you get hangry
you get hangry
you get so hangry
all of Robin's bad behaviour
is when he's hungry
always hungry
I swear to god
hungry or tired
it's the only
that we have eliminated
it's hungry or tired
every single time
it's hungry or tired yeah we's hungry or tired, yeah.
We pull over to...
Well, I didn't want him to be hungry
because...
No, no, no.
I didn't realise he'd only had
a tiny little bit for his breakfast
because he was being so excited.
So, we literally five minutes,
less than five minutes after that,
just remember,
full of sugar,
load of shite,
can't have that too early.
Just remember them,
that little collection of freezers.
Do you remember
what you got him
from the
service station
what he chose
because it was
his birthday
but he came
back in
to the car
with
first of all
a car
with the smelliest
most ridiculous
fucking stain
inducing food
in the world
that kid came
back in the car
with
a packet of
chilli Doritos
yeah
you only had half
a pepperami
yeah
yeah and a bottle of fizzy of chilli Doritos. Yeah. You only had half. A pepperami. Yeah.
Yeah.
And a bottle of fizzy
fizzy
vimto.
It was his birthday.
Literally
purple and red stuff.
I know.
I was nearly
sick
driving that car
for the smell
that the chilli
and the Doritos
and the fucking
pepperami and then the buritos and the fucking pepper army
and then the burps
of the fizzy vimdo
yeah
can I just tell you
in hindsight
I wish you'd just
give him half that protein
I didn't realise
you had that much to eat
oh I know
oh I know
unbelievable
I know
fizzy vimdo
a pepper army
a cop
what year is it
I didn't know it was fizzy
by the way
what year is it
I didn't know it was fizzy
and he pulled the wool
over my eyes
because I paid for it
and then as we were
walking out he went he went you didn't realise but this is fizzy and he pulled the wool over my eyes because I paid for it and then as we were walking out he went
you didn't realise
but this is fizzy
like that
and then I was annoyed
but I thought
it's your birthday
utterly ridiculous
watch your beef
because you don't deserve
a beef after that
it is pretty bad
it was bad
sorry about that
my beef with you
is over half term
Robin had homework
and part of his homework
was like a project
was to make a
pyramid build this pyramid right yeah 3d pyramid i thought well you know he's got he's got whatever
got a week off he'll be fine we've got loads of time to do it so every day i kept saying right
we need to build this pyramid no no i need to slightly engineer all pyramids are 3d if it
wasn't 3d which would be a triangle carry on. Carry on. Oh, you are. You are samaners.
So I kept saying every day,
we need to do this pyramid.
We need to do this pyramid.
And every day, Chris would say to me,
he doesn't need to do it today.
He's got loads of time.
He doesn't need to do it today.
And Robin would go, yeah, mum,
I don't need to do it today.
And I said, Chris, you are away from Sunday
and it needs to be in on Tuesday.
And I'm not doing it the night before.
Tell me when I ended up making a fucking pyramid for my child's project.
Judging by the angry phone call I got off here, I imagine it was Monday night.
It was Monday fucking night.
The night before.
And it was Tuesday morning.
Because he wouldn't go and get his Lego by himself in the dark.
And I had Rafe.
Because Monday night, my phone rang and I picked up the phone.
And while I'm in the hotel, away, nothing I can do to help you.
Your exact words were, don't you.
I went, hiya, love.
You went, don't you ever tell me to make him wait until the night before to do his homework.
Because we've just done his pyramid and it was a fucking nightmare.
Yeah.
And I said, I didn't tell you to wait the night before.
All I said was, you kept putting it off.
All I said was,
he's got until Tuesday
and then you went,
right,
bye then.
And you put the phone down
and then,
but you,
because you kept putting it off
and you kept putting it off.
Two hours later,
your text is,
because I held out.
I was like,
I'm not giving any of you.
Two hours later,
you,
tail between your legs,
came crawling back,
didn't you?
Because you knew you were being ridiculous.
Your text is two hours later.
Oh,
I only text you because I was going, sorry, just stressed. I only text you because I knew you were being ridiculous you texted too oh I only texted
sorry just stressed
I only texted you
because I was going to bed
and I thought if you died in your sleep
then you'd feel bad
if I hadn't said
goodnight
so fuck you
I didn't mean it
don't you ever think
that I mean an apology
I only ever apologise
if we're going to sleep
in one of my die
when we're away
so don't fucking think
that that's a real apology
travelling or going to sleep
I'm with you on that
exactly I go do you on that. Exactly.
I go, do you know what?
I might as well just quickly say sorry here
because if one of these dies in a car crash.
Thank you very much.
But don't think that I was apologising for that
because I wasn't.
That was just a quick little...
Placeholder.
Yes.
Placeholder till now.
Don't you ever tell me
to put off a project ever again
because we're doing it.
And you never do his homework.
Why is that left to me?
It's not my wheelhouse man
what is your wheelhouse
because you're really
slacking on the bins
at the minute Ramsey
I did miss the bins last week
I didn't miss them
but we got them
within 10 minutes didn't we

Negative vibes, bit of panic.
You know, now and then I forget to put the bins out.
You know, I'm just... Negative vibes.
Negative vibes.
I bring the doom and gloom, what else do you want?
I just bring a big grey cloud
of anxiety and stress

do you know how much work
that takes to maintain

Don't you worry about a thing.
Don't you worry about a thing,

Humans aren't minging.
We are minging,

I've just went and sat
on a porcelain thing
and just,
and then I I come back up
like nothing's wrong

Rosie
what have we got
in the mail bag this week
oh well
Chris
we've had loads of people
emailing in
and we've got some
brilliant stuff here
I've got a shit story
to start with
oh have we
keep it on brand
keep it on brand
excellent
hello Chris and Rosie
my husband and I
are South Shields natives
long time listeners
and big fans
very excited to come
and see you on tour
oh we shall see you there
thank you
I have an ick
and a story for you
get in
we have to travel a lot
to visit our sisters
who have moved away
so there is a lot
of motorway driving
my ick is that
my husband likes to sit
in the outside lane
at whichever speed
is currently happening
which causes the speeders to pile up behind us.
I get so embarrassed and it's such an ick.
Yeah, Prig, stop it.
Why do that?
Stop doing that.
We'll go at my speed.
I understand it's more difficult on two-laner.
A dual carriageway does upset me slightly.
A motorway is better
because you've got two other lanes to play with
rather than the fast lane.
But a dual carriageway,
if you've got people going 50 in one
and then you're on level 70
but you don't want to go 90 like the fucking nutters behind you you've got to move
around a lot well my that's just my dad used to tell me off all the time and uh so when we used
to drive to gigs my dad used to come with us and do help us with my gear and stuff when i was doing
solo and um i would just sit in the middle lane i don't really mind sitting in the middle lane
right if you're not going too fast and you don't want to go slow to sit in the middle lane i don't
understand the problem right okay well fair enough all right but my dad was
like why don't you go back to the slower lane i was like because why why do i want to keep moving
about i don't see the problem because that's how driving works yeah he kept telling us to move to
keep moving i was like i'm quite happy no you've got it yeah why though i'm not getting anyone's
way but you probably are getting people's way i'm not though because if they want to overtake us
they can overtake us i understand and if they want to overtake us, they can overtake us.
I understand.
And if they want to go slower,
they can go on the other.
I do understand the logic.
I feel like the law is wrong
and I might be right.
All right, okay.
That's a very arrogant way to look at it,
but fair enough.
Me dad,
and I remember saying to my dad,
Dad, that's old fashioned driving.
Oh, great.
Wow.
You're too old, mate.
We just like the city.
I do nothing.
Anyway. Secondly,
a tale of sisterly horror and a question
for Rosie. In brackets. Sorry,
lonely child. Yeah, that's me.
Oh, sorry, is that you?
No frame of reference for siblings, but
you know. But you probably had a much better childhood
than me. Didn't have to share me bike.
Exactly, mate. Fuck you all. Exactly.
At least you had a bike. When they were toddlers,
my husband and his younger sister
would be bathed together by their mam.
Sounds pretty good.
They both had a special, beloved sponge.
I've just laughed because I sometimes forget what these are
and I've just remembered.
Right.
They both had a special, beloved sponge.
Hers was a fish and his was a frog.
Simple at times, wasn't it?
He was great, wasn't it?
Do you remember when he used to get buzzing about something?
He'd be buzzing
about it for months
not just
oh I love this toy now
and I'll forget about it
in a week
kids have too much
nowadays
depends
we haven't got kids
like some
you know some kids
are like this is me doll
and I take it everywhere
and it gets absolutely
scruffy
you know we just
don't have kids
you know a kid
was like this is me blanket
I carry it everywhere
some kids do
just latch onto a thing
I was never I was never have I kind of want them new. Some kids do just latch onto a thing. No, our kids never have.
Ours never have.
I kind of want them to though.
Nah, because then if you lose that thing
or you have to clean that thing,
there's hell on it.
I suppose.
But then I just feel like
they don't really appreciate anything.
I'm like,
why aren't you besotted about this one thing?
Because they've got other things as well
and there's stuff going on
and, you know,
I don't know what it is.
I think it's just a personality thing.
Yeah.
I don't know.
But all I know is,
I've known people...
Did you have a favourite thing
when you were a kid?
God, no.
But I've known people
whose kids have favourite things
and it's like,
oh, this is a favourite doll
or whatever.
And they lose it.
No.
Yeah, well,
if you lose it,
it's a nightmare.
But it's absolutely a biohazard.
Like, it's scruffy
and they'll, like, wash it
and the kids are like,
no, you can't wash it.
So it's like,
well, you know.
I think whatever your kid's doing, you'd find a thing to whinge about anyway true so they've got a special
sponge right one frog one fish one frog one fish one bath time she decided it would be hilarious
to shit in the bath fantastic she was only two fantastic and horrified mom started taking them
out she took my husband out first and whilst wrapping him in the towel little sister knew
she needed to wipe her bottom.
Oh no.
She reached past her own fishy sponge and used the beloved frog to clean up.
Oh, that is low.
When asked why, she said, I didn't want to ruin my sponge.
Mom had to bin them both in fairness.
He still hasn't forgiven her and we're nearly 30.
Rosie, what's the worst thing you or your siblings have ruined for each
other wow i love the idea that one day she's gonna need a kidney he's gonna be like remember
the frog remember that sponge you bitch fuck you um i'm just trying to think what's the worst thing
that we've ruined for each other well i i've said i used to graffiti my name all over the place yeah
someone's done that who Who's done it?
Someone told me a story the other day about the kids have started graffiti and stuff around
the house, but not their name.
So I used to graffiti Kate and Kevin around the house.
Of course you did.
With compass.
No, not a compass.
What was it called?
Protractors.
Right.
Is that what they're called?
I think they're called the sharp thing.
Yeah.
Is it a compass?
I think it's a compass.
Right. I can't remember. What's what they're called? I think they're called the sharp thing. Yeah, is it a compass? I think it's a compass. Right.
I can't remember.
What's it called, man?
I cannot remember.
Things like that
were just such a huge part
of your life.
Massive.
For years and years and years.
And I haven't drawn
a fucking perfect circle
for probably 25 years.
Do you not remember?
Put the pencil in that bit
and twist that end
and put the sharp bit there
and spin it.
Magic. Motherfucker. Magic. Do you remember trying to give yourself tattoos though with it? put the pencil in that bit and twist that end and put the sharp bit in and spin it magic
motherfucker
magic
do you remember
trying to give yourself
tattoos though with it
did you ever do that
no
I do believe that's called
self harm
no well we used to
scratch our name
into our arms
and then put like
ink on it
from the pen
that
is the scummiest thing
I have ever heard
like
like in prisons.
I mean,
it didn't really ever work
because we never got deep enough.
It's time to scratch the surface.
It's scratch on top.
Oh, yeah, man,
you've never lived.
You never burnt yourself
with a lighter,
I bet you haven't,
you fucking pussy.
Never had a smiley,
have you?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Have a go.
Have a go
at my non-mankey upbringing. You never, you never done yourself a proper have you oh yeah yeah have a go have a go at my non-monkey upbringing
you never
you never done yourself
a proper
you never done yourself
a proper tattoo
like in prison
eh
it never worked
I did bleed
a couple of times though
yeah that's what
that's my memory of them
yeah
that's that's
but no so I used to go
around the house
honestly
on so many things
and then me mum
would be like Rosie
it fucking says Kate what are you talking about it was me every time there's still my favorite
thing about you and your sister fighting is the fact that once one of you swung a hair dryer around
by the cord to hit the other one like in gladiator yeah incredible oh we were honestly we were awful
that's why whenever the lads fight now, I mean, they are a lot younger,
but you get really upset and I'm like,
mate, you've seen nothing yet.
Me and Kate would just be sat there, right?
Not so much, Kev kind of got away with it.
He was very, our Kev's really tame little lad.
He wasn't aggressive at all.
He was actually, yeah, he just wasn't.
I was probably the roughest out of the three of us.
Yeah, I can totally believe that.
We'd be sat, right?
Me and Kate just watching the telly
and we'd be having an argument
and we'd just be calling each other like a bitch,
like mouthing it.
Bitch, you bitch, right?
On the sofa.
My mum, I'm going to end you too.
And then all of a sudden, if there was no one there,
we're just like, I remember,
just launching like remote controls off our face.
I swear to God
so rough
you've never known
fighting like with a
with a sibling
wow
so rough
wow
she slapped me once
when we were on our bunk beds
because before we went to bed
you know
she was quite horrible
but I was quite horrible back
so we had a fight one night
she slapped us
and so I spat under her pillow
oh you are horrible I did and then on the
night so i rolled me sleeves up and showed off me tattoos and then spat under a pillow but then you
know what she did to me which was really quite cruel right because i was a bit of a wimp she
would lie there she always had the bottom bunk right i never got the bottom bunk so she i had
to go on the top which i never really liked anyway she would lie there and she'd go, when you're asleep, I'm going to come up and I'm going to hit you.
And I'd be like, no, you're not.
She'd go, yeah, as soon as you're in a deep sleep,
I'm going to come up there and I'm going to slap you across the face.
It was horrible, so I couldn't get to sleep.
Wow.
Wow.
Bitch.
Horrible, that life.
God, it is like prison.
It's awful.
Honestly, Chris, it's brutal.
Why do you think I'm so...
Awful?
No, not awful, just...
Rank.
No, what's the word?
No, I'm harder than you.
And I don't mean that in a weird way.
Honestly, take that back right now
or I'm going to have to choke you unconscious.
I think when you've got siblings,
when you grow up with siblings,
it's a... I can't describe it it's teaches you to fight suddenly the kreer twins story's making perfect sense teaches you to fight with each other never
with anyone else but then weirdly if somebody started on them, I would, you know, go to death for them.
Join in with the person.
No.
Yeah, random.
I'll fight.
It's just,
I'll spot them.
Come round me
and you will spit on a pillow later,
person I've just met.
Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah!
Hi Chris and Rosie.
I've been listening to episode 234
and the mountain bike injury
and pseudocrime chat
reminded me of a horrible day
in my brother's life.
Ah, okay.
Do you remember that one
when he was putting
Sudokrem on his balls?
When my brother was about 15,
him and a friend
created a makeshift
mountain bike course
in my parents' back garden.
Wow.
It really was as makeshift
as it could have been.
Plywood down the deck
and stairs as a ramp, etc.
Yeah.
Tragedy struck
when the seat of the bike
both were using fell off. Oh, God. And the seat comes off and it's just literally a pipe. etc. Yeah. Tragedy struck when the seat of the bike both were using fell off.
Oh, God.
And the seat comes off
and it's just literally
a pipe.
A metal pipe.
However,
jumping over random shit
in the garden
over a rusty pole
didn't faze either of them
and they kept going.
Awful.
It wasn't long before
my older brother did a jump
and the rusty pole
made hard contact
with the flesh
between his ball sack
and arsehole.
Oh, God.
Get in the bin. And made him vomit for at least five minutes.
That is the grimmest thing.
My grandmother, in brackets,
comes running out to see him, falls down the plywood, skids down the hill.
My grandmother, in brackets, who at the time was 85 years old,
was the one looking after us.
And she had no idea what to do.
Not living near us, she didn't have a car with her.
And being of the war generation, she didn't believe in making a fuss.
So, how did she decide to tend to my older brother's bruised and bleeding gooch?
Can you guess?
The gooch as well.
That's so, so tender.
Thin, isn't it?
Thin skin.
Oh, God.
Can you guess what she put on to make it better?
On his gooch?
Uh-huh.
Oh, something stupid like a tea bag or some cucumber or something.
No.
No.
Pseudocrem.
That's not antiseptic.
That's the barrier cream. Pseudocrem's not's not antiseptic. It's a barrier cream.
Sudocrem's not going to do anything.
You might as well have put fucking mayonnaise on it.
Sudocrem on his arm.
On a cut, a rusty cut.
Bit of Sudocrem on there.
That'll get rid of the tent.
What's it called?
Tetanus.
You might as well have put fucking...
Oh, God. Coleslaw. She might as well have put fucking, oh God,
coleslaw.
Talc.
Talc.
Gently applied with his shorts down his ankles,
lying up my parents' staircase.
What a beautiful image.
You can see it,
can't you?
So is it two brothers?
I don't know.
Is it the brothers that were doing it?
Oh yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
yeah. Can you not remember, Mam, when you were, I don't know if you were, because that were doing it? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Can you not remember, Mam,
I don't know if you remember,
because you had siblings,
so you didn't play at other people's houses,
but I remember the most...
I did.
You had no friends.
I didn't live with them.
You didn't have any mates.
I had loads of friends.
Of course you didn't.
The awkwardness of being at someone else's house
when they got hurt when you were a kid.
When they're going to start crying, yeah.
I don't
think i would have recovered if i had to stand there while my mates and then i put pseudo cream
on his goose while he was lying on some stairs i don't think i'd have come back from that
i couldn't have been mates with him anymore well 15 was piling age i was drinking at 15. He was 15? 15. Oh, so he's got pubes. He's got it full on the cock.
He's got a button sudecremin,
he's pubes.
Nana.
Nana.
But you never know,
you might have genuinely
needed to go to hospital
and he's like,
please fix me.
He's just sudecremin him up.
and he's like please fix me
it's just
Sudocrem and I'm up
put a fucking nappy
on him while you're at it
poor woman
my grandma
rubbing Sudocrem
softly with her
middle finger
while my younger brother
my older brother's
friends and I
were hysterically laughing
watching
15 years later
my older brother
now fastidiously
checks that a
bike seat is
firmly secure
before getting on
from anonymous
that's wonderful
that like
hey funny
15
a bike seat
falling off
and going to the
pole going up my
arse is one of my
worst nightmares
is it
absolutely
and obviously
when I'm out
I just cycle
I mean I haven't
cycled for ages
now but I just
go I don't go
for jumps and that like a lunatic yeah just in case I can't think of anything worsecled for ages now, but I just go, I don't go for jumps and that,
like a lunatic.
Yeah, just in case.
I can't think of anything worse.
Do you know when I was in primary school,
I think I must have only been about eight or nine.
I fell over in the school hall,
in the dinner hall.
I slipped on some gravy and I fell on my back.
Had you just dropped the gravy from whatever you were eating?
No, I think it was from something else, but I fell on my backside. I just dropped The gravy from Whatever you were eating No I think it was From something else
But I fell on my backside
I dropped my tray
And everything right
The dinner ladies
Took us round
Behind the overhead projector
Like the white
You know the screen
Yeah
And pulled me skirt down
And looked at me backside
In the middle
Like in the hall
Where people were
Eating on the other side
Was the projector on
So was a big
A big shadow of you
Getting your arse
Looked at by some dinner ladies
But it stuck with me forever
You know when you're like Anyone could have seen us With me arse looked at by some dinner ladies. but it stuck with me forever.
You know,
when you're like,
anyone could have seen us with me arse out.
Yeah,
and he fell on the floor
with a look at your arse for?
I think it was just in case
it was like,
God knows,
funny,
wasn't it?
It's really weird.
Actually,
do you know what it is,
Chris?
It's not weird.
I think it's just modern day
and it makes it feel weird,
but it wasn't.
I was just a little bane
and I'd fell over on me arse
and they were like,
let's have a look. Probably kissed it better. You know what it wasn't I was just a little bit and I'd fell over on my arse and they were like let's have a look
probably kissed it better
you know what it is
the more I hear about your school
the more I do believe
that there was gravy
all over the floor
everywhere
it just feels like
a kind of crack
just big
like wet floor signs
just gravy everywhere
why is there gravy everywhere
I don't know
the gravy was amazing
sour school innit
I also have a very
very vivid memory of did our school innit I also have a very very vivid memory
of
did your school
do seconds
I packed lunch
didn't I
oh
well me and my mate
Ozzy and Wright
I remember us
being among
a very small group
of the whole school
who would stay behind
to get seconds
I'm starting to think
the gravy was on your shoe
I was starting to think
that gravy was running
from your chin onto your shoe
and you were falling on your own gravy that you were just producing from all of the food you were having.
Babadoo babadoo babadoo bap.
Dear Rosie and Chris, I'm writing this on the train home.
I wasn't looking where I was going whilst getting onto the train
and face planted in front of a carriage full of people.
So I figured whilst I'm down, might as well sink further. There's no worse than falling over in public in front of people carriage full of people. So I figured whilst I'm down might as well sink further.
There's no worse
than falling over in public
in front of people.
I did it
at a friend's birthday party.
When?
I walked into the room
and I slipped
and nearly fell on my arse.
Where was that?
At Aaron and Ashley's.
Oh, yes you did.
I was like, you okay?
I was like, no.
Yeah, you fell out
on your way in.
You fell out.
Great.
Anyway.
Ick.
I'm a very gassy person.
Probably because I'm lactose intolerant
and refuse to cut dairy
out of my diet
that might be why
you stay strong
yeah
anyway I was in my
open plan
rather busy office
one afternoon
a couple of months ago
and it was like
a witch's cauldron
brewing in my guts
oh no
I couldn't let rip
in front of everyone
so I did what I can only
describe as forcing
the fart into my vag
so I could do a gradual release
later on.
Goodness gracious me.
I've never been able
skilled enough to do that.
Skilled?
So we can act as a little
a little halfway house.
Sometimes they sneak up in there
and then you lose all of the power of it
so it's just there
and it just kind of comes out
and stinks but
yeah, suppose you could
force them up in there
yeah
goodness me
what
through the little slit
goes in
it's just
spaces isn't it
air can get into spaces
right
okay
so you can just
hold them in there
like a kangaroo
holding its baby
kind of
I've archoned
but yeah
I'm guessing
good god
like a pit stop.
Like the bus that gets you from the airport to the plane.
No.
Yeah, just a little holding pen for your pumps.
Well, maybe, yeah.
I can't do it, but she's obviously very...
Yeah, but she can actually do...
I can't believe it.
I'm going to try next time.
I'm going to try and hold it in and squeeze it up.
No, no, I think that's dangerous.
I don't think you should be farting.
I never thought I'd have to say this,
but I feel like we should not be telling people
to fart into their own vaginas.
Do you think?
That's a sentence.
I've said some stuff on this.
That's a sentence I never thought I'd have to say.
I don't think fart gas is bad for your vagina.
I feel like...
Glass vases, yes.
Fart gas, no.
Okay.
Do you?
Google? You must. Okay. Do you? Google?
If you must.
Where's my pen?
Where's my pen? Where's my mouse?
Ready? What are you putting? Is fart bad for a vagina? I'm going to have to put private browsing on for this.
I'm not having this on my computer.
What do you mean? What's private browsing?
Where it doesn't log your history.
Oh, really? I don't know
about that.
It's not for your porn escapades, is it?
Listen, listen.
I have never in my life watched porn.
I don't even know.
What is that porn?
I've never heard of that.
I don't know what to type.
Type does...
Do or thought bad for your vagina.
Common and completely normal.
Is there bacteria?
This is a nightmare.
Is it normal for a virgin to fart?
Jesus.
It's fine.
It's absolutely fine.
Give up the quest.
I had a one-to-one meeting with my manager that afternoon.
She came round and beckoned me to come to the meeting room.
And as I stood up, I let out the loudest queef of my life.
In my silent office, no one said anything but I just did the whole
oh, my chair's stuck to the floor, must have been that.
Or some shit like that.
But as I started to move away from my desk, every time I moved my legs,
the queefs were coming thick and fast.
For God's sake.
Everyone just stayed silent as I queefed my weight and me and Ruth in shame.
No one has ever said anything
but I know they all heard.
You can't tell by the way
I queefed my water
I'm a queefing girl
No time to talk.
Don't bother me.
It's alright.
I will queef another day.
You're going to want to understand.
A queefing girl is not a shame.
Whether you're a lover, whether you're a lover.
Queefing a lad.
Queefing a lad.
You've got to finish the song.
No, it's fine.
It's fine.
Queef, queef, queef, queef, queef in your bum.
Love the word queef, by the way.
Oh, God.
If we ever had any more kids
definitely
queef
queef
queef Ramsey
oh god
babadoo babadoo
