And just to set the scene, my husband, Chris Ramsey, who's wearing a lovely mint T-shirt, mint green T-shirt.
Starting point is 00:01:11 Mint as in you're talking about the colour you're not talking about. You think it's mint. No, that's Georgie. Is this mint green or is it more of a limey? You didn't have to comment on it, to be honest. We could have just cracked on. I was just trying to give you a compliment. It's just a weird thing to say. Considering as well two seconds ago
Starting point is 00:01:28 I said are you ready to start recording and you said how does it start again? Well, we've been recording the audiobook this week. So I wanted to describe things more for our listeners. Because now I know how to do it. Okay. Actually. So you learnt it from doing the audiobook, not from the writing process, just from reading it down. No. God no.
Starting point is 00:01:43 I learnt nothing from that writing process well good didn't even learn how to spell because someone just corrected it for us
Starting point is 00:01:50 yeah so well that happened yeah or the computer corrects them but sometimes the computer goes
Starting point is 00:01:55 I don't even know what that is yeah sometimes they are so far away from the actual word that the computer goes no
Starting point is 00:02:01 no idea so guys it is episode 75. It's not, is it? It is 75. Thank you all so much for listening, liking, rating, subscribing and all that stuff. We really do appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Thank you for coming back. But before we start, before we go any further, obviously, it is time for this week's lucrative, lucrative sponsor. I just want, just quickly, didn't review. Your lucrative... No, I'm not. Oh, my God, I compliment you, for God's sake, would you let us speak?
Starting point is 00:02:27 Forgive me, forgive me, Mrs. Ramsey, for having me guard up when you go to comment on me sponsors, because for 74 episodes, you've slagged them off, and now you're apparently, allegedly, you're about to say something nice, and I just try to cover me own back here, and I got me
Starting point is 00:02:43 head bitten off. Well listen, it's not from me. People on Twitter have been saying nice things about your local sponsors. Right. There's only been a couple but they are there.
Starting point is 00:02:52 So carry on. That was a half compliment if I've ever... Well I was going to say something nice. What were you going to say? Come on, say it. I was going to say that
Starting point is 00:03:00 but nicer but then you've ruined it and you know I'm hormonal at the minute because the baby's growing inside of us making us all these sort of hormones. Honestly.
Starting point is 00:03:07 One big woken hormone, that's all I am. Is that why babies, do you think babies, when they're going to be born, they're going to be born like utter angry, horrible fucking arseholes, but they actually get all of that out by pumping it into the mother and the mother lets all that anger out
Starting point is 00:03:22 during the pregnancy and then the baby comes out just lovely. Well, yeah, the baby comes out just lovely. Well, yeah, the baby comes out lovely because the baby is currently taking up all of my lovely energy. So I'm giving all of my lovely energy. I bloody have. I'm a fucking breath of fresh air, mate.
Starting point is 00:03:36 Wow. Never has that been said. Contradictory in tone. I'm a fucking breath of fresh air, me. Through gritted teeth. That couldn't have been less convincing if you were holding us at gunpoint. Listen, I'm a really pleasant,
Starting point is 00:03:56 bloody person to be around. I'm a joy to be with. I'm a brilliant mother. Listen, you're cutting into sponsor time. This week's look at the sponsor is... Tea Towels.

Starting point is 00:04:56 It is. The agency from tea towels are going to be over the moon with that. Great. It's great, that. That might actually get a couple of extra tea towels. I always like tea towels. Hey, this over the moon with that great it's great that that might actually get a couple extra tea towels I always like tea towels hey this is a long intro yeah
Starting point is 00:05:09 hey listen here's the jingle that's my cue to go for a walk Jesus
Starting point is 00:05:18 I was going to say a frig but I changed my mind oh but you said it anyway you said it anyway though got it in the end good hi mum we had a fight about the jingle change your mind. Oh, but you said it anyway though. Got it in the end. Good. Hi, Mum.
Starting point is 00:05:29 We had a fight about the jingle jingle We couldn't settle on a jingle jingle So this is the jingle jingle We hope you like the jingle jingle Jingle.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Hello and welcome back to this week's Shag Married Annoyed. Pull up a chair, Patsy Pitch. Patsy Pooch. Beauty and the Beast. Beauty and the Beast, fantastic, yeah. You felt the baby move last night. Are you talking about that? That's new news. That's the biggest news.
Starting point is 00:06:03 That's just what I... Because I feel like I don't want to slag you off for being hormonal and and moody and like honestly uh uh you know an awful awful presence to be around um and hard work and a nightmare and unfun and um just sad but you can feel you try being pregnant during a global pandemic you uh were the same when you were having Robin without a pandemic, so shut your fucking mouth. Now, I just want to, obviously, it's easy to take the piss out and whinge about the bad parts, but we were watching telly last night
Starting point is 00:06:33 and you felt little movies, didn't you? I did, and do you know what? I had to Google it because I'm 16 weeks currently and I think with your first baby, you don't really know what a baby moving feels like. Right. So I felt Robin move at about 22 weeks, I think, and it was a definite sort of, that's a funny feeling.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Just for all the men out there, what do you mean you don't, so something happens inside, like a moving, and you don't know what you are, you just ignore it. Well, no, it's just, it's really hard to describe because sometimes when your stomach gurgles or whatever, that's things. Dear listener, Rosie's gurgles a lot, carry on.
Starting point is 00:07:14 It does. But you know, they're just stuff that happens in your stomach. But when you're pregnant and you feel your baby move, it's like a definite movement, but it's not with, now that I've felt it with Robin, when it happened last last night it was so tiny teeny teeny tiny but I knew I was like that's the baby move and that's not just me stomach that's the baby moving and it was absolutely low so we're not at the point where you can sort of see an elbow moving across no film of this inside of the stomach like
Starting point is 00:07:42 on the internet and but i just it was weird because you were like i just felt a move chris and i was like oh my god and i was i was dead excited and i uh i came across the living room and you were like it's just there and you got me handed you were like press right in and felt like fuck i'm not fucking pressing right in it was like you were like trying to get us to properly put my hand in your insides i was like fuck that i know but you were always so terrified of anything like that with robin i don't like it no the cushion man look at i've got like loads of fat around my stomach that the baby's cushioned by and then the cushion feels like a trap this just feels like i've not got loads of chris haven't i haven't i yeah you
Starting point is 00:08:20 have right that's it you calling me that so so yeah the baby moved and apparently with the second baby you can feel them moving from like 13 weeks onwards because you can't it's just like a little flutter you're like oh this again no it was it's just so lovely because it just never seems it never seems that real because obviously i'm really hormonal i haven't had any sickness touch wood i'm just shattered but you don't you know other than like i've got a little bit of a bump there's nothing much else going on so until you start feeling the baby like oh yeah there is a baby in there because you can't go and get a scan every day to just check do you know what i mean so yeah i would um you know how pathetic i am i'd have bought a scanning machine by now i'll be on
Starting point is 00:09:04 every morning scales scanning machine brush me teeth well you can get like a heartbeat machine but i never did that because i just think you would become a bit obsessive checking 100 yeah but like this with a thermometer in the minute yeah constantly checking that that fucking thermometer that infrared thermometer that infrared thermometer uh honestly i must have had it i must have had about six goals of it yesterday like robin can like run around he goes outside and he'll run around in the garden for like 20 minutes yesterday he was like sweating and he came in and for some reason i just go i completely forget that he's been running around i'm like he's sweating he's warm oh he's got it covered get thermometer all is and it's so weird because he can be literally dripping a sweat and it's sweating he's warm oh he's got it covid get thermometer all this and it's so weird because you can be
Starting point is 00:09:45 literally dripping a sweat and it's like 35 degrees and I'm like how so is it like your inside it's like your internal
Starting point is 00:09:51 your body temperature do you know when I go and do the one show to get into BBC you've got to get your temperature taken but you just stand in front of what's basically
Starting point is 00:09:58 like this iPad on a screen and it does it does your whole it just scans your entire body in one go and does your whole temperature it's fucking amazing it's amazing and every time I go eee in the blog And it does, it does your whole, it just scans your entire body in one go and does your whole temperature. It's fucking amazing.
Starting point is 00:10:05 It's amazing. Yeah. And every time I go, eee, in the blokes, I was just so fucking sick of people like me going, eee, look at that. Honestly, like security guards, whenever I go TV and stuff, places like that, security guards have got zero time for me. Like zero. I'm just like so excited and just buzzing to be there. Well, we get excited when there's a bloody revolving door. To be fair. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:10:28 We're like, hey, look at this. I told you about the time I was going into the Google offices and I stood outside at the revolving door for about five minutes because I was too scared to go through. Why? Are they going really fast? Fucking unbelievable. So it's in central London somewhere. And I was going in for interviews
Starting point is 00:10:46 or something some kind of press thing and it was rush hour everyone was going in so there was a coffee place across and everyone was going in these doors
Starting point is 00:10:52 and like no word of a lie like a fucking fan like a fan like so fast like in a film where they go you know where
Starting point is 00:11:00 Bruce Willis puts his fucking gun in the way to stop the fan going around so he can climb through and they were so fucking angry because me and Lottie was the girl who did me pay off where Bruce Willis puts his fucking gun in the way to stop the fan going around so he can climb through. And they were so fucking angry because me and Lottie was the girl
Starting point is 00:11:09 who did me PR at that time and was standing just going like, you know when you see them when they're doing jump rope in movies and they're ready to jump in and they're like, and they're timing it. We were standing like that and so many fucking people who obviously do them doors every day
Starting point is 00:11:23 and don't give a shit were behind, were just absolutely raging we were both laughing our heads off like fright anyone who's listening who lives in London
Starting point is 00:11:30 who's seen this before unbelievably fast the doors were spinning could have lost an arm I ended up going through the fire exit I couldn't do it I got the security guy
Starting point is 00:11:37 to open the fire door I couldn't fucking do it that's hilarious it was terrifying you were too scared to go through I couldn't go through I was like no
Starting point is 00:11:43 I've seen it on a different building in London. And it is terrifying. It is terrifying. Flying around. Honestly. Spot the northerners. That's the thing, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:11:52 Spot the out-of-towners. Yeah, it's absolutely spot the northerners. Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah. What have you been up to anyway? Not, oh, yes. We recorded the audio book last week. We did record the audio book, yes. So that's been done.
Starting point is 00:12:04 Done. Dusted. High five. Dusted, high five. In the bag. Oh, can't reach it. That's not, that's not what we want. the audio book, yes. So that's been done. Done. Dusted. High five. Dusted. High five. In the bag. Oh, can't reach it. That's not...
Starting point is 00:12:07 There we go. That's a bit better. Yeah. When can he? Hit me back a bit there. Yeah. It was good. Good fun.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Good to get out of the house. Nice to read it. Nice to read it all. For the first time ever. There's a specific section at the back of the book. Rude section. And we had to re-record it because we felt silly, didn't we? rude section and we um we had to re-record it because we felt silly didn't we well yeah because the audiobook is chris and i reading the book aloud hopefully with a lot of expression and
Starting point is 00:12:31 all that kind of stuff and then the last section we will not tell it we'll leave it a surprise i think we can tease okay tease right how would you want to tease it well i think when we say that the last section is a section that a lot of people asked for but we argued about putting it in or not I didn't want it in I'm childish and disgusting so I was like let's put that specific section in give you a clue it's got it's own jingle on the podcast reading those
Starting point is 00:12:56 kind of emails just flat like an audio book with other people listening was one of the most embarrassing things I've ever had to do in my entire life yeah and it's all guys you listening it's all of you you should be ashamed the stuff i had to read and there's someone down the line in london and there was a guy in the other room doing all the audio and i was embarrassed i was really embarrassed that they were listening to me read your your stories out filth and so we had to redo it didn't we we did an extra day yeah but luckily
Starting point is 00:13:24 for you you never heard them before. Yeah, no. So we did it in a kind of podcast form where we just read them aloud. And I'd actually forgotten a lot of it. So it was really good fun. Oh, my God. Yeah. So the last section of the audiobook is very much like a podcast episode,
Starting point is 00:13:40 which I think is quite fun. It was good fun to do. Yeah, it was good fun. I hope people enjoy it. And it's available for pre-order now from audible uk something something something yeah and through amazon as well yeah yeah so many september it's out big news for me i went swimming this week you did what just stuff's coming back to normal it's nice isn't it rosie if they lock us down again i'm going to explode i'm going to i don't know what i'm going to do stuff starting to come back to normal i went to a cafe this morning yeah it was bloody lovely yeah every
Starting point is 00:14:18 five minutes on twitter they're like second spike it's coming like fucking the twitter version of you know the blokes who stand in the street with a big sign saying, the end is nigh, judgment day is on its way. It was so fucking nice to go to the swimming bath. I know. And I stormed around the house all morning, didn't I? Mm-hmm. So I got it in my head.
Starting point is 00:14:37 So what I like to do is I like to have arguments in my head that haven't happened yet. You like to catastrophize every single thing in your life. Yeah. Which is exhausting, but I just let you crack on because i think well you're gonna do it anyway so you might as well just do it and i'm just gonna ignore you i walked around the house and i was like i'm gonna get there and half the pool's gonna be shut and they're gonna be like the slides aren't on and and you can only get you can only put one leg in the water you can't fully get in the water because
Starting point is 00:15:03 of covid and i just had all these fucking arguments. You've got to shower in this, sanitize it. Yeah. Rosie, we both know, and everyone listening know, I would love that. Hand sanitizer, shower. You're fucking joking, aren't you? I'd move in.
Starting point is 00:15:15 True, true. I'd gargle with it. Now, I was so scared. And I got there, and I was like, is the pool, is it okay? He went, yeah. I was like, slides open? They went, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:24 I went, everything open and that? He went, yeah. And I took Robin into the dressing room, and he was like the pool is it okay yeah i was like slides open yeah i went everything open and that he went yeah and i took robin into the dressing room and he was like family dressing room there and i went in and robin was like daddy i'm so excited and i went me too so i started crying no you didn't i fucking cried in the dressing room no word of a lie i cried so strange okay he was honestly he was embarrassed. He gave us a look as if to go, all right, man, it's only swimming. Dad, wow. We've got a bath at home, Dad.
Starting point is 00:15:52 It's honestly... The meaning of it. I was emotional. Well, I'm so glad. And then we were standing ready to go in and I was like dancing. And I was like, are you excited? And he went, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:00 And we started a little dance and then I joined in the dance and then he stopped the dance and I kept the dance going for an embarrassing amount of time. Can't wait to be an embarrassing dad. I think you already are. Yeah, but he's not at the age
Starting point is 00:16:10 of getting embarrassed properly yet. No, he loves it. And he's a bit older. I'm going to fucking... Speaking of dadding, actually, Chris, got a little bit of an early beef with you. Shit the bed. Well, speaking of shitting the bed
Starting point is 00:16:21 and all that kind of stuff... Whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't be telling people I poo with the bed. I haven't pooed with the bed. No, no. Robin at the minute, our little boy, he's nearly five. He's five in October, so he's four at the minute. He's practically five.
Starting point is 00:16:31 I appreciate it when I do that, but he's practically five. I hate that. No, I'm not talking about that. No, no, let's bring it up. Just for people who don't know, I don't know if you've mentioned this, but the day after her birthday, Rosie's claiming that you're nearly the age of your next birthday
Starting point is 00:16:46 fucking infuriating God I hate it honestly well you know we're nearly 34 Rosie it's the day after your 33rd birthday
Starting point is 00:16:55 well we're cracking on it's true it is true anyway so Robin's nearly 5 talks about poo and wee all the time loves it
Starting point is 00:17:05 it's just his crack it's his go to thing just constantly like poo anyway overheard you two chatting yesterday right
Starting point is 00:17:14 because I'm trying not to encourage the poo and wee talk so when he does it I go Robin please don't it's a bit silly you're going to school
Starting point is 00:17:20 in September bloody blah I'm just going to double check I'm going to bring up the phone the problem is with the poo and wee chat if he catches me in the right mood I am fully on that to school in September, blah, blah, blah. I'm just going to double check what I'm going to bring up on my phone. The problem is with the poo and weed chat.
Starting point is 00:17:26 If he catches me in the right mood, I am fully on that wavelength. Yeah, so I heard you yesterday telling Robin that he smells like a bucket of weed. I did.
Starting point is 00:17:43 I told him he smells like a bucket of weed. He laughed his head off. And I don't appreciate that. I'm a very funny man. Yeah, but he's going to go to school in September and he's going to say to all his friends, you smell like a bucket of weed.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Rosie, by September, he'll have much better ones than a bucket of weed. Don't you worry. There'll be so many. I'll have an even better one by then. Please don't. It's not fun, man, for God's sake. Little boys talk about poo and weed, man.
Starting point is 00:18:04 It's what the crap is. He's an only child, though, so it's not like Little boys talk about poo and wee, man. It's what the crud is. He's an only child, though, so it's not like he's even got any... You're bantering with him like a bloody... Like a sibling. And you're his dad. You're meant to say no. Listen... Not to say you smell like a bucket of wee.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Are you just upset because you smell like a bucket of wee? No. A little bit. Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah. So, we did go to a cafe this week, and as more lockdown restrictions and stuff are being lifted and we're being able to go back to restaurants
Starting point is 00:18:29 and things like that we heard last week by the guy doing our audiobook the sound technician he told us of a McDonald's thing that we'd never heard of Oh yeah, what was it again? So this blew my mind
Starting point is 00:18:43 I don't know how many people listening have heard of this It's called a McChicken gangbang so apparently what you do is i've never heard of it and the shortest photos of it and it looks revolting and it sounds like the worst but i've been assured that it's quite nice you get a you buy a mcchicken sandwich and you buy a double cheeseburger and you open the double cheeseburger at the burgers so that on one side you've got bun and burger and on the other side you've got bun and burger. And in between those two burgers, you put the full McChicken sandwich.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Yeah, I'd eat that. So it goes bun, burger. I don't know where the cheese goes at this point. I don't know if it goes above. Just take the cheese as red. So it goes bun, burger, bun, McChicken fillet, bun, burger, bun. And the cheese is in there somewhere as well. bun McChicken fillet bun burger bun and the cheese is in there
Starting point is 00:19:27 somewhere as well. I think I'd eat that. That looks lovely. I'm just looking at a picture on Google Images. Give us a look at that picture. Yeah. Oh sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:33 Oh she's just headbutted the mic there. There you are. That looks probably I mean Jesus Christ. You would have to dislocate your jaw like a snake
Starting point is 00:19:41 eating a fucking egg. I'd probably use a knife and fork Chris. You'd use a knife and fork. Or cut it in half, maybe. You got slagged off for putting your McDonald's on a plate. If these listeners catch you... I know.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Knife and fork. I'm sorry. I can't. I can't. I don't think I can get on board with that. Well. McChicken gangbang. More for the rest of us, Chris.
Starting point is 00:20:01 That's all I'm going to say. It's time for a new feature. A new feature? What? Rosie's got a new feature. Come on, then. So I teased this last week. I mean, it just came about last week.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Teased slash accidentally invented. Yeah. I'm dreading this. Can I just say I'm dreading it? Okay. So I've done a jingle. Of course you have. I'll just play it now. Hang on. Yeah. I'm dreading this. Can I just say I'm dreading it? Okay. So I've done a jingle. Of course you have. I'll just play it now.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Hang on. Okay. This is Rosie's Mysteries. Mysteries, Mysteries, Mysteries, Mysteries. E. Well, I never knew that You're kidding No way
Starting point is 00:20:55 Wow It's not finished Mysteries, mysteries, mysteries Informative mysteries Mysteries, mysteries, mysteries Rosie's Mysteries. That's the worst. That's the worst jingle. It's just you going, eh?
Starting point is 00:21:17 What? Hey. Took me a long time to do that. So, this week's Rosie's Mysteries. Okay, so obviously we came up with the name before I'd actually come up with the concept of what it is. A lot of very, very good segments and things are invented. Don't you worry about it.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Okay, well, I thought about doing unsolved mysteries and stuff, but that would take too much time. And then unsolved, and you never know what's happened. Well, there's a thing on Netflix now called Unsolved Mysteries and people are like, if you watch that, do they solve them?
Starting point is 00:21:48 No, not watching them. Worst things in the world. Waste of time. So this is basically true or false. Right. So, a bit mysterious, you've got to work it out
Starting point is 00:21:55 but there is an answer. Well, I suppose anything is a mystery if you don't know the answer. Exactly. Thank you, Chris. What's in that drawer over there?
Starting point is 00:22:01 Don't know. Mystery. Rosie's mystery. We share that drawer. We both paid for that drawer. there? Don't know. Mystery. Rosie's mysteries. We share that drawer. We both paid for that drawer. So your first mystery today. Go off piece. This is a very important segment.
Starting point is 00:22:11 I'll try not to derail your segment unless it derails itself by being shite. Okay. I've got two here just in case the first one's shit. Already brilliant. Like a real professional host. So here we go. Christopher, here is your first mystery.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Mysteries, mysteries, mysteries, mysteries. This is painful. It's already painful. Okay. Prince Harry is taller than Prince William. True or false? This isn't a mystery. This is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:22:45 It is a mystery. If you switch off right now, you'll never know. So it would be a mystery. Don't give them the idea. Izzy. This isn't a mystery, but... True or false? True. Prince Harry is taller than Prince William.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Izzy? When was the last time they saw them stand next to each other on the telly? I think we've all seen them sitting. It's been a while because they're not speaking in parallel. Isn't William taller? Well, I think William's taller. False. You're right. You're right.

Starting point is 00:31:09 up and then leaning all the way down to the right, like going past the mic like a fucking metronome. Well, I just want, you know, we've got a good podcast, right? It's, you know, much to our surprise, it's top of the charts and it's doing great and we're, you know, we're dead, we of the charts and it's doing great
Starting point is 00:31:25 and we're, you know, we're dead, we love doing it and it's a lot more successful than we ever thought it would be. 100%. I once watched a documentary
Starting point is 00:31:32 on the Archers, right? The Archers is, I think it's, Radio 4. Radio 4. It's a sitcom, yeah. It's been going for years
Starting point is 00:31:38 but it's all just, yeah, like, audio, yeah. Audio, sorry. I was going to say vocal. Anyway. Same, but yeah. yeah so they have to do
Starting point is 00:31:47 loads of things to make it just sound a bit more interesting like sound effects and stuff like that and i just i wanted to just try something different right well it was i mean i get it so you're going you're basically going for yes yeah that's what you're going for and it probably doesn't sound no i didn't know because you can sound nothing and then you just came up and just shouted one of the words and then just disappeared. The table made a lot of noise while you were doing it as well. Right, well, listen.
Starting point is 00:32:08 I was freaked out. This is how you learn. I thought you were ill. I thought something bad was happening. This is how you learn, isn't it? Yeah, I suppose. So let's get these questions from the public. Going.

Oh, we laughed for days. So no, sorry, no. First of all, I really object to you using my greatest anecdote in that little bit there.
Starting point is 00:33:13 That's my feet stink thing. That's one of me classics. And secondly, listen, I'm just trying to mix it up a bit. There's loads of messages. The meaning of life could be hidden in there. The greatest question or story ever written couldlaen yn y 20,000. Iawn, ond beth dwi'n ei ddweud i chi? Mae gennym gwestiynau yn dod allan gyda chyfnodau. Gallwn ni fynd am flynyddoedd gyda'r sgwrs hwn. Iawn, na fyddwch yn ffurfio'n ymwneud â'r hyn a ddweudwn i.

Byddwn yn mynd ato. Byddwn yn mynd ato. Byddwn yn mynd ato. Iawn? Jesus. Ydw i'n gwybod pan fyddwn i'n meddwl i fynd i edrych drwy'r cwestiynau? Pan?
Starting point is 00:33:44 Ymlaen yn y bore d at four o'clock in the morning when I'm feeding the new baby lies you'll have housewives on next oh yeah next bit of shit you're going to say
Starting point is 00:33:51 okay yeah take that back take it back sorry honestly right no I'm going to do
Starting point is 00:33:56 I'm going to learn a new language while I'm feeding that baby fucking liar a lot of people listen to this when they're feeding the baby so if you are listening to this right now and you're feeding the baby so if you are listening to this right now and you're feeding the baby then a hunger game sign to you that is the one you're doing now is the star trek
Starting point is 00:34:12 she said hunger game sign and just did the star trek sign right in my face you could have just not done it. It's a podcast. Better the off-chairs do that. Fucking hell. I can't sign the U. What's wrong with you, man? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:43 You're an absolute lunatic. I honestly didn't think baby brain was a thing until we've been doing this podcast while you're pregnant. It is. Fucking hell. I can't speak. You're a looper. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:34:55 It's really bad. It is really bad. I can't talk properly at the minute. Anyway, okay. So it bodes well for the audiobook. that's all I'm going to say. Oh, aye. Because that was painful. Hi, Chris and Rosie. I have a story that I find so strange and after sharing it with family and friends, I can confirm it is in fact bizarre.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Wow, okay. It's not rude. This isn't rude. I have got some filth. Okay. Right, but this isn't. So I start off. So this right but this isn't i thought i'd start off so this is this is weird and bizarre just a bit bizarre would you possibly class it as a mystery no don't get the foot no don't can't speak until i've done it oh god in the questions from the public might as well get the most out of that X-Files tune that you've nicked. I don't want to play it too much because it's coming back.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Too late! Anyway, I have been with my boyfriend for four years. Okay. He comes from a fairly wealthy family and it's safe to say that I don't. Okay. So he is Colin Firth and she is me. That lass. You. No. She's Mr. Darcy. she is me. That lass. You.
Starting point is 00:36:06 No. Was it? She's Mr. Darcy. He's Mr. Darcy. She's, what was her name? Bridget Jones. No, in fucking Pride and Prejudice, man. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Christ alive. The one that probably would have been better to quote from. I don't know. Anyway. Emma? No, that's a different one. That's a different Jane Austen novel, isn't it? Anyway.
Starting point is 00:36:25 There was a lot of uproar about Bridget Jones a couple of weeks ago. Why? Well, because it was true, actually, because you don't realise when I watched it when I was a kid, and you know how she's like whinging about her weight and all this, and she's writing in her little book about how many cigarettes she smoked and how much she drank. I believe it's called a diary.
Starting point is 00:36:41 In her diary. A little book? You ever seen that film, Bridget Jones In a diary. A little book. You ever seen that film, Bridget Jones's Little Book? A little book. I didn't know the title. This is too easy. Honestly, I feel sorry for you.
Starting point is 00:36:55 She's writing, Bridget Jones writing in a little book. Bridget Jones's Little Book. Bridget Jones's Little Book 2. What's Bridget Jones's little book. Bridget Jones' little book two. What's Bridget Jones' little book three called? Bridget Jones takes a little book on holiday three. Anyway, she's writing in her diary about how many tubs she smokes
Starting point is 00:37:21 and what she drinks and that. And she writes her weight. You know how the kind of cluster is, like being quite big? Yeah, yeah. Like, she's not, she's actually not big. And she was nine and a half stone. Shut up, man. And I think she writes nine and a half stone, like in her diary.
Starting point is 00:37:35 God. And like, I weigh more than that. Jesus. Robin nearly weighs that. I know. So I think there was a bit of a, there was a bit of hoo-ha. That's quite right. You've got to be careful about things like that. It's about inches as well, guys. a bit of hoo-ha. That's quite right. You've got to be careful
Starting point is 00:37:45 about things like that. It's about inches as well, guys. It's not about your weight. It's about inches. Yeah. And it's about how happy you feel and how healthy you are. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:37:52 But mainly, I'm heavy. I'm a heavy person. Me too. I don't know if I've ever talked about my illustrious boxing career on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Oh, no. Please don't. When I was a top flight amateur boxer. You had two games. You lost both of them. Two games. Yeah, I had two games
Starting point is 00:38:05 and I lost both my games two matches what do you say fights fights fucking hell Christ alive I was fighting giants
Starting point is 00:38:12 every time I was weighed up against someone giants because I was really heavy because you were heavy I'm the same weight now as I was when I was 70 when I boxed
Starting point is 00:38:19 but I was 75 kilos which is just like 12 and a bit stone the minute I stopped going on the scales was the best moment of my life because it's just
Starting point is 00:38:29 it's about yeah it's about it's about how you feel how your clothes fit and if you can run up the stairs without getting out of breath I only use the scales
Starting point is 00:38:36 to see if Robin's still light enough to go on the seat on the back of my bike yeah you do and I'm telling you right now not long left
Starting point is 00:38:43 he's not got long left he's not long he's got not long left he is heavy yeah he's the same I'm saying he, you do. And I'm telling you right now, not long left. He's not got long left. He's not long, he's got not long left. He is heavy. Yeah, I'm saying he's the same as me. I'm like dense. I don't know what it is. I'm like dense,
Starting point is 00:38:52 just a heavy person. Weird. Went in a bloody loft before. I thought I was going to come through this ceiling. Please don't. So, she's not well off. His family aren't.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Yeah. His family are so lovely and I love spending time with them but there's one thing that makes me doubt everything I've ever known. Wow, okay. She bigs this up a lot.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Really? Doubt everything I've ever known? Yeah. Are they lovely? Are the family lovely? Because she's, you know, evidently got it out. No, she says they're lovely.
Starting point is 00:39:19 Well, I'm just saying. But they've got, so listen to what you think of this, okay? I'm saying she's a gold digger but she ain't messing with the bro, bro, but she a mess of a dope, dope. We're only allowed snacks on the weekend. Sorry? So she must stay there.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Right. On the weekend. And she's put, we're only allowed snacks on the weekend. Okay. I understand that this is a great way for food control and to help keep yourself from eating everything. However, my boyfriend is almost 21 and his siblings are 15, 24 and 26. This rule applies to all of them. So, we're allowed ice cream for pudding Friday to Sunday and crisps after 6pm
Starting point is 00:40:05 what the fuck yeah that's implemented in the house yeah it's the rules you're only allowed to have snacks on a weekend
Starting point is 00:40:13 and these are grown ups but what what what happened she's put I found myself sneaking bars of Cadbury's and packets of sweets
Starting point is 00:40:23 into my overnight bag and eating them discreetly when his parents have gone to bed. That's ridiculous. After discovering these rules, I decided to delve into his childhood and ask what it was like. They could only watch documentaries on weekdays and on the weekends, they're asked to turn the TV on and put in brackets, fair enough. They also were only allowed chocolate on the weekend. This to me seems absolutely absurd.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Maybe my parents were far too lenient. I didn't have access to sweets and chocolate all day every day, but I was allowed a penguin bar here and there. And she's put, I almost forgot. We're both 20, so we've been drinking responsibly since the age of 18 and a little bit irresponsibly before then. Yeah. But we're still only allowed to drink from Thursday to Sunday. Wow.
Starting point is 00:41:12 So there's some strict rules going on there. I want to know how this is implemented. I want to know. Well the parents must just go no. No snacks allowed. And I can imagine if they've got them in their hands they'll go no. And they'll whack them on the hands. Rolled a paper across the nose.
Starting point is 00:41:27 No. You will not eat those crisps. Crazy. Ten to six. That is so weird. I know. Like, I've got so many questions. I want to go around.
Starting point is 00:41:37 I want to go and sit. I want to sit just outside the house eating snacks on a Wednesday afternoon and be like, can't touch this. It's tough though because my mom was strict right she was when it came to snacks and stuff like that and i don't like i've said before i don't know whether it's because she didn't want having snacks all the time or because they didn't have enough money to buy snacks all the time so because now when she's got grandkids she's giving them snacks constantly so i don't know whether it was a money thing or like not having too much
Starting point is 00:42:05 she's just said these guys are well off though yeah these are well off so I don't know what that's all about maybe they're not maybe they're just saving all the money
Starting point is 00:42:10 on snacks well some rich people you know have big houses and fancy cars but actually don't really have any money in the bank
Starting point is 00:42:16 they're living it all on the never never yeah you never know you know what I mean but yeah it's a bit strange when you get like
Starting point is 00:42:23 in your 20s in that I just I can't imagine someone telling 20 year old me that i can't have i can't imagine turning up at a girlfriend's house say and they're being all um yeah we don't you know take the pat of crisps in and i'm going yeah no you can't eat them it's not six o'clock fuck off well imagine being hung over so if you're a student right and you're hung over on a Tuesday lunchtime, and you just want a family size of minstrels and a big pack of kettle chips,
Starting point is 00:42:52 and the mum and dad would be like, you can't have them in this house. And they're only allowed ice cream. They're allowed ice cream as a dessert Thursday to Friday to Sunday. So you're not allowed ice cream. So Monday, having an ice cream is a nightmare. I hate them.
Starting point is 00:43:04 I hate them. I hate them. Is this a cry for help? Is she asking for help here? I don't know. Are you okay? Is the recording this email? I don't like this at all. I don't like this at all.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Well, what can I say? Just thought it was interesting. Anyway, I've got more. This made us really sad. Sorry. Do you want a bag of crisps to celebrate? Because there are no rules in here, bitch! I don't know.
Starting point is 00:43:23 I feel bad. I'll wait until six. Babadoo, babadoo share this ridiculous story with you okay i've been chatting to this guy since about april we had a few zoom dates oh fuck that i'm already gutted for you that's terrible bless you no Bless your heart. Well, they're a thing. Fucking sick of Zoom. I'm so sick of Zoom. Me too.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I will... I used to kick off about going to London for meetings. I will go... Honestly, I will go to London now so someone can ask us the fucking time. Well, do you not remember at the beginning of lockdown when we were doing Zoom meetings instead of having to get the train to London,
Starting point is 00:44:00 we were like, hey, everything can be done remotely. Get me to London right now. This is great. Now I'm like, nah, don't ever let me sit on that computer and have to stare at me ugly bracket ever again. Well, me and my mates were having Zoom nights out
Starting point is 00:44:13 and now you can actually go to the pub and some of them are still like, should we have a Zoom? I'm like, fuck no, we're not having a Zoom. Why would I have a Zoom? No. That's very true. Just fucking ring you on the landline. MSN Messenger? No. We're no look the pub meeting in person christ alive so they've had a few zoom dates and a social distancing date
Starting point is 00:44:35 cool they've had one of them as well and then in june we met up properly slags he came over one day and brought a curry round in a tubpperware box It was lovely, she's put Fast forward a few weeks and it all went sour When he ignored me for a few days So I decided to end it with him as I don't like game playing Oh, ghosting, getting ghosted were you? He turned out to be quite manipulative It's never good
Starting point is 00:45:02 Anyway, a week or so after I ended it he texts me I quote hey B do you have me purple tuck away box please can I get it is this me genuine fave
Starting point is 00:45:12 fucking hell fucking hell dude so she put she's put could not stop laughing that he so desperately
Starting point is 00:45:20 wanted the tuck away box back when he wanted to collect it I said I might be out so I left it on the doorstep for him. And that's the saddest love story I've ever heard. That is a tragedy. I know. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:45:34 Come back, Faye's little purple Tupperware box. Why would you do that? No, no. You wouldn't do that. Yeah. Would you? No way. That's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:45:42 Maybe she just really cares about the environment. Yeah, but she's going to use it. She's not going to throw it away. She's going to use the Tupperware box, if it's as nice as he claims it is. I've stole loads of Tupperware, mate. You've stole Tupperware? Well, no, not from the shop or anything.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Just if my Nana makes us a dinner, she'll give us it in a Tupperware. Right. I don't always return it. Oh, you're fucking so dangerous. So most of them Tupperwares in there, those are Bridget's. The ones that don't have matching lids. Oh, yeah, great. She doesn't always put it. Oh, you're fucking so dangerous. So most of them drop a ways in there. Those are Bridget's. The ones that don't have matching lids.
Starting point is 00:46:07 Oh, yeah, great. Oh, she doesn't always put a lid on. She'll just cover it with tinfoil. Brilliant. Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah. Dear Chris and Rosie, my wife has no concept of temperature at all. Wow.
Starting point is 00:46:17 It's mental. Okay. When she has a bath, she uses pretty much 100% only the hot tap, and it's absolutely scalding yeah she happily bathes for hours until when she gets out she has to lie down straight away you literally have to get out of her way within seconds or she says she will pass out because the bath was just too hot and she lies there looking like she has just come back from the sun i hate her what do you expect
Starting point is 00:46:43 and it's bloody boiling water, pretty much. Anyway, as I'm sure like other men, I don't always get the pleasure of a new bath, so sometimes I'm off at it afterwards. I deliberately leave it for as long as I can, sometimes up to an hour, and I still can't even get my foot in the lava. Wow.
Starting point is 00:47:00 Is this normal? I love my wife, but sometimes I fear that she has scales instead of skin. When we were at her parents not long ago, and even her mum flippantly asked her, do you still have those pass-out baths? Pass-out baths. As if this is a normal thing.
Starting point is 00:47:16 And he said that he's a little bit behind his wife, but don't mention her. She's an amazing person and I love her dearly, but would like to remain anonymous as she hates being the centre of attention. He's actually just, he's bigged up his wife more in that short email than I did in the whole book about you. It absolutely has. It's all it would have took.
Starting point is 00:47:36 Suck up, pathetic. All it would have took. Yeah, lech. I've been known after a hot bath to lie on the tile floor. I've done that before. Yeah, I love a hot bath to lie on the tile floor. I've done that before. Yeah, I love a hot bath. Yeah, it's horrible. It's killing us at the minute with the baby
Starting point is 00:47:48 not having, like, me usual scalding hot baths. Sometimes Robin comes to get in your bath and he just can't because it's like, you have to put the cold water tap on for, like, 20 minutes. But he is pretty hard, to be fair. He can get in quite a hot bath. Yeah, he can. Like, he loves it.
Starting point is 00:48:03 When I put the hot tap on sometimes and he's in there he's like this isn't it and I'm like yeah and he gets out and he's like bright red and I'm like that's something to get in the show after
Starting point is 00:48:10 and you've still got it on boiling and I don't think I'm going to have to turn it down actually that's a beef but I'll save that for another day oh okay then good I'll let that look forward to it excellent
Starting point is 00:48:19 babadoo babadoo babadoo hello Chris and Rosie hello hope you both are well and safe yeah yeah both of those things tick tick I have a wonder for you Babadoo babadoo babadoo babadoo Hello Chris and Rosie Hello Hope you both are well and safe Yeah, yeah Yeah Both of those things, tick tick I have a wonder for you
Starting point is 00:48:29 How far would you go in getting your own back on someone? Some years ago, I struck out on my own and moved from Portsmouth to Stamford, Rutland Sounds nice I've got no idea where it is No idea where it is I know where Portsmouth is but I don't know where Stamford is No, it sounds lovely though I moved into a
Starting point is 00:48:46 house share with four others with only one bathroom. All of these people had a mix of problems. I swear I was the only normal person who lived there. Don't we all think that about ourselves? Don't we all think we're normal and everyone's weird? Interesting that the word normal. Carry on.
Starting point is 00:49:03 One day I was sat in the kitchen chatting with one of the slightly other normal persons that lived here. Christ. When we heard a squelch, bang and a clatter. Squelch, bang and a clatter? Yeah. Is this an alternative to Night Before Christmas?
Starting point is 00:49:18 What's this? Up by the window. A squelch, bang and clatter. We went to investigate and found that some of the ceiling had fallen through. If it wasn't bad enough to have the ceiling falling down, the reason as to why will infuriate you as much as it did me. As I said, we lived in Stanford,
Starting point is 00:49:38 which is the largest surviving Georgian town left in England. Think chocolate box tin. It sounds lovely. It does sound lovely. Quite happily lived there. Many listed buildings, etc. Think chocolate box tin. It sounds lovely. It does sound lovely. Quite happily live there. Many listed buildings, etc. Sounds like a nightmare. This means...
Starting point is 00:49:49 Sounds like a nightmare to an extension. Look, carry on. This means, as you know, to fix anything in this house was a nightmare. There we go. We found out that the 36-year-old man, who was also living there, was urinating into a glass
Starting point is 00:50:03 and throwing it out of the window along with his faggons, thus rotting the roof, causing the ceiling to fall down. Oh, you filthy pig. Can you believe that? In a glass and throwing it out the window? Just threw it out in the window.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Onto a flat roof, I'm assuming. So much so that it rotted the ceiling that he was just higheing his piss on. That is mad. Hoeing his piss on, she says. Like, why would you do that? That's horrendous. He showed no remorse for this.
Starting point is 00:50:38 Do you know what? You know you've shown no remorse for throwing your piss and faggots on that ceiling. Absolutely none. Can you imagine someone doing that and they're not showing any remorse? I don't understand how it's done that. Surely the rain must wash it. It's his thought that the rain must wash it off, but somehow it's collecting somewhere.
Starting point is 00:50:55 Like, what is the setup? Where's he throwing it onto? Don't know. Oh, my God. It might just be really dehydrated. It might be really concentrated wee. Like alien blood in Alien
Starting point is 00:51:05 just burns through the floors. One of many other things to piss me off, my food was always being taken along with many of my stuff. Many of my stuff. Many of my stuff. Don't think she was at university.
Starting point is 00:51:18 I know it was him as he was absent-minded and selfish. When I left to move back to Portsmouth, I hid his shoes. Fucking hell. He owned two pairs of shoes.
Starting point is 00:51:31 One set of shoes I hid in a cupboard where no one would find them as it was a room nobody used and out of sight. The second pair of shoes, I took one of them and put it inside the mouldy, foul-smelling, stagnant water of the dead fish tank. I quickly left the house, jumped in my car and drove back to Portsmouth without looking back with a big smile on my face. This is... Sorry, but shoes aside,
Starting point is 00:51:55 why is there a fish tank with mouldy, stagnant water just in your house? This sounds like a fucking nightmare. Sounds like the worst house in the world, doesn't it? There's a roof that just collects piss. There's a man who just throws his piss in his fag ends. There's some kind of hole in a roof where it just comes through the ceiling and squelch, plop, bang and fucking wallop
Starting point is 00:52:11 or whatever they said. And then there's just, it's human, just dead fish floating in a tank of stagnant water and this fucking bloke only owns two pairs of shoes, yet he's got a spare glass that he pisses in. And he's renting in Stamford Christ on a
Starting point is 00:52:26 eee my word this is hot the fucking sounds like the young ones yeah it does oh that was horrible yeah
Starting point is 00:52:34 so there you go apparently when she left she later found out that he went on a rampage looking for his shoes around the house oh good on her
Starting point is 00:52:42 it always brings a little smile to her face fucking hell what a horror that sounds like my worst nightmare living there I don't think I'd get on his shoes around the house. Oh, good on you. It always brings a little smile to my face. Fucking hell. What a horrible... That sounds like my worst nightmare living there. I don't think I'd get on with anyone, including the person who just sent the email. Aw. No, no, I didn't be hiding someone's shoes.
Starting point is 00:52:55 Come on, don't be a coward. Babadoo, babadoo, babadoo, bah! Hello, Rosie and Chris. Hello. Love the podcast and thought it's about time I told you the story about how my mam got her very strange nickname. Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:07 So I wasn't out this night, but my mam was out on the drink in a local bar. I got woke up with her constantly ringing me, and as I answered, she was panicked, shouting, Ashley, I'm in hospital, I might have to have an operation. Jesus. Just like that. So me panicking was like, calm down, what's happened? What have you done? Are you okay?
Starting point is 00:53:25 She began to explain. So she was dancing on the table in the bar, absolutely mortal, and fell off the table. Got it. Underneath the table was an overturned chair, which she fell on and let out a massive scream. No. After everyone laughing and helping her up, she carried on her night dancing and sat on her friend's knee, who happened to be wearing white jeans. No. After everyone laughing and helping her up, she carried on her night dancing and sat on her friend's knee, who happened to be wearing white jeans. No.
Starting point is 00:53:49 She stood up and to her friend's horror, there was blood on her jeans. Oh, my God. Oh, Jane, you've come through on me jeans. Oh. My mum was like, I'm so sorry, and went to the toilet where this blood just wouldn't stop. She realised the blood wasn't actually coming from normal
Starting point is 00:54:07 period hole and that's what I've heard it's called in the doctor's place. Period hole. But felt like her bum. So they called an ambulance. When they got the hospital, they checked her out and realised the chair leg had
Starting point is 00:54:23 pierced a new hole right next to her bum hole and that no no i'm not having it that's horrible and that is how my mom got her nickname bowling ball because she now has three holes. That's a great nickname. That is a great nickname. Can I just say, can I just say, controversially here, I don't want to,
Starting point is 00:54:50 well, you know, at the risk of sounding like an old boring man. Okay. Fucking serves you right for dancing on tables. Stop dancing on tables. No one's impressed. No one's, you're not getting enough attention dancing over there on the floor.
Starting point is 00:55:03 You're not all standing on the table so everyone can see you fuck you you deserve another bum hole right well listen I'm going to stick up for dancing on the table because I've been known to do it myself
Starting point is 00:55:11 a few times nah what where's me drill I'm going to get you another bum hole why not dance on the table I just find it to be really obnoxious
Starting point is 00:55:20 really oh oh are we having a good night Rosie oh watched Coyote Ugly the other week, That's what started it all off. Get yourself on it.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Fucking pathetic. That's what started it all. I hate people who dance on tables. Hate it. Well, I used to do it. That table's got to be wiped. That table's got to be wiped or replaced.
Starting point is 00:55:35 And you fall over. Oh, and then you straight away, you're complaining to the manager. Oh, I've got another bum hole. Look at what's happened. Why are we dancing on the table then?
Starting point is 00:55:42 Yeah. She doesn't have a leg to stand on. Not our fault. Get down. We're not insured. Well, I used to do it and my mates used to do it, but I what's happened. Why are we dancing on the table then? Yeah. She doesn't have a leg to stand on. Not our fault. Get down. We're not insured. Well, I used to do it and my mates used to do it, but I was really scared of heights
Starting point is 00:55:50 so I would never enjoy it, to be honest. A table? Mm-hmm. Like three foot off the ground, not even that. You know how bad my fear of heights is. Yeah, but you pick and choose
Starting point is 00:56:00 your fear of heights. It's really strange. What do you mean? Well, like you can stay on the 12th floor of a hotel, but you can't walk on the fucking, the steps that get you into a plane.

Oh, well, I think you just pick and choose your anxiety. I think you just think, you know what? Maybe I haven't been anxious enough today. Maybe I'll just think of something to be dead anxious about and have a whinge about. Is that what you think I do for attention? Is that what that is?
Starting point is 00:56:36 Well, that's what you're saying that I do with my fear of heights. Well, I might do my anxiety for attention, right? But I don't ever go and stand and do my anxiety on a table, do I? For a bit more fucking attention. I do it on the floor well what do you call your flipping career

I would never have guessed that the next words were guinea pig.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Please keep me anonymous. Oh, what is it? We had a really hairy situation, encounterounter. You know. Knob. Fanny. Guinea pig. Wow. Nibbles had to get haircuts regularly.
Starting point is 00:58:16 And as you can imagine, after we were done, there would be thick piles of dark hair lying on the ground, which needed swept up. Right. A few days after the last haircut, haircut nibbles passed away in her sleep which left my sister and i very upset right you don't know where this is going i've got no idea and i'm also thinking are some guinea pigs not just supposed to be like long hair do the hair does the hair keep i've never heard of anyone well no i've never heard of anyone having to cut like a
Starting point is 00:58:44 rabbit or a hamster or a guinea pig's hair. Me neither. I think they just had one of them really long-haired guinea pigs, but the fucking lunatics just kept cutting... Who knows? She's in a better place now. Probably died from stress, coming to regrow its fucking hair all the time.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Possibly. Jesus. I was about 16 at the time, and so a few days later decided to trim and shave my pubes as i was going swimming with friends the next day i did this in the communal bathroom when everyone else was asleep it was pretty late and so when i finished i swept up the remnants and went to bed the next morning my sister who was seven came into my bedroom with a locket around her neck. I asked her what was inside, expecting a picture, but what she revealed was horrific.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Shut the fuck up. It was stuffed full of my pubes. Fuck off! Oh, that's fantastic! Oh my God! Oh, that's fantastic. Oh, my God. Oh, God. So we had the mix-up occurred.
Starting point is 00:59:58 That is incredible. You ready? I tried to hide my horror and asked what this was. replied that she found a pile of nibbles fur after the last haircut and stored it in her necklace to keep a bit of our beloved pet with her i must have forgotten about a tiny pile in the corner of the bathroom and now my sister had my pubes close to her heart worse than this she showed these to all our family members who stroked my pubes to make her happy thankfully no one found out they were in actual fact stroking my pubic hairs
