Jingle
Okay, this is interesting.
Okay.
This is Family Feud.
Oh, nice.
Not as in-depth as you'd think.
All right, okay.
But this topic is tearing a family apart.
I'm going to have questions.
Okay.
Hi, Rosie and Chris.
I have a question for you.
When playing a board game, when you put the board on the table,
do you keep it running square with the sides of the table
or do you put it in a diamond position on the table?
That's a good question.
During lockdown, my family have been playing more board games.
I come from a large family and it has become a bit of a weekly thing to play a board game with all eight of us.
Eight?
Yeah, my two parents and five siblings.
Oh my God.
I know.
Get a telly.
Five.
Five siblings.
Great game, eh? You're not working on your pull-out game.
Jesus.
In these games,
a little bit jealous, though.
A little bit jealous.
I mean, it must be lovely.
It must be very nice.
Genuinely, I'm jealous.
Yeah.
Robin's not at the age where he plays ballgames yet.
I mean, he does,
but he's a fucking cheat and it's a nightmare.
No, do you not think it would be nice to have five kids?
No.
No, but to have gone through,
you could just erase the whole them being little stage
and just have five grown-ups and be like,
look at us.
Are you asking me if I want five mates?
Because I've got more than five mates.
No, but ones that you've made when you're a bit older.
I would love five kids,
but I don't want to have five kids.
That's a lot.
Five's a lot.
It's nice though.
Fuck me.
How big's their fucking wheelie been?
I know.
How many bathrooms you got?
Five, eight people.
Oh my God.
A bit off topic here,
but there's a programme on at the minute.
Somebody messaged in of a family who live,
I think it's in Yorkshire.
And this husband and wife,
they own a farm.
Right.
They've got nine kids.
Mental.
Chop it off.
Honestly, I'm sorry.
After fucking four.
After four, I can imagine,
four, okay.
I don't know.
I don't think it's okay.
But five, after five,
chop your dick off.
Chop your dick off.
What?
Nine?
Nine?
Nine kids.
That's horrendous.
You'd never have a drink with us
oh god no
I wouldn't even know you
constantly pregnant
so there's 11 of them all
yeah so they're a football team
yeah skins or shirts
yeah skins or shirts
they're a football team
yeah
fuck me
anyway
back to the five siblings
back to the fucking
the clampets
playing board games
yeah
in these games
we've come to a dilemma
and have had large arguments
about how to put the board on the table
to the point where half of us
can't play a board game with the other half
because of how the board is on the table.
Wow.
I am a believer in that the board's side
should be parallel to the sides of the table
so it's square.
Right, okay.
But the others are firm in that it can be placed diagonally or just randomly of the table, so they, like, it's square. Right, okay. But the others are firm in that it can be placed diagonally
or just randomly on the table, which, in my opinion, is not right.
Wow.
Do you have a preference, or is the lockdown getting to us?
Yeah, I mean, first of all,
you really know how to take the fun out of a board game.
Before it's even started.
No, put that perpendicular to the sides, or I'm not playing.
And no, I'm the shoe. You're not the shoe. I'm the shoe. You can be the perpendicular to the sides. Or I'm not playing. And no, I'm the shoe.
You're not the shoe.
I'm the shoe.
You can be the dog or the sheep.
Who wasn't allowed to be the banker in your family?
Oh, well, it was only me, my mum and dad.
So it was just really sad.
Oh, right, okay.
Only the three of us playing.
I got banned from being the banker.
You got banned from being the banker?
I cheated so much.
Oh, I used to cheat.
Oh, yeah. I was like slyly little 20s i cheated i got
banned honestly like when we used to play well done for just picking 20s you could have went
500s but you just know i'm not daft but a guest mom didn't raise no fool
was it why have you got nine 500s and you only own old kent road saving dad's just been saving
being a jail loads oh you have to pay didn't you do that anyway um that would not bother me at all
i wouldn't care where the board was um so i've got a theory um if you've got a a a rectangle table
um it's probably better to put it diagonally so that it uh it fills more sort of so that table it's probably better to put it diagonally
so that it fills more
so that it's not
centred more
so if you've got 80 around a rectangle table
and you've got a square board
if you put it diagonally the people on the far end of the table
will be technically closer to it
that's just sort of geometry
would it matter
because you are more of a
what's the word pernickety person yeah you're
more pernickety than i am i would go with diagonal i like i like the look of diagonal and i feel like
it leaves more space that surprised me either bit of the table plus it can mean diagonal probably
means on a square table that you can get more people on each side because you've got two sides
on each side rather than just one side on each side. I think Diagonally's bright and I'm sticking with it.
Thank you for that, Rhiannon.
And good luck getting some milk in the morning.
Good luck to her family.
Jesus, nothing wrong with her.
Hi, Rosie, Chris and small humans.
Oh.
I was listening to the latest podcast
with the lady that flashed her gash
getting out of the plunge pool
and it made me flash back to a holiday I went on years ago with my dad please never say flash the gash ever again
it gets worse it gets worse you can you can imagine the bant that goes on between this guy
and his dad some some like right can i just a public service announcement here some blokes
who are emailing in to this podcast i'm we're not your mates on in the bar at the stag do look i'm sure
you're lovely right just fucking sort some of your language out because some of it is so
offensively laddish i don't even and some i'm sure some of them will be amazing emails and
amazing stories but i read the first few lines and it's like oh so we went out like you know
trying to find some slags i'm like right gone that email's gone could be the greatest story
in the world the email's goneops in things like flash of the cash
in the first couple of sentences.
You're lucky this is getting read out.
Well, I just want to,
before I read this,
I just want to say,
I think this guy thinks his dad's a ledge.
I think his dad's a dick.
Right.
Okay, so here we go.
Oh, but I like that he thinks his dad's a ledge.
That's nice that he thinks his dad's a ledge.
I hope Robin thinks I'm a ledge one day.
Yeah, but it'll not be for this reason.
Right, well, okay, I'll be the judge of that.
Okay.
I must have been 13 slash 14
and a massive group of my dad's friends,
brackets family and tour,
went to Alcudia in Spain.
Get in.
My dad was known for being dry and quick-witted,
rarely lost for words
and having a knack of saying
the first thing that came to his mind. One day we were sat around the
pool with no real agenda to where we sat. As people came and went my dad sat there
doing a touch of people-watching. Anyway this one lady had been in the pool some
time and finally decided to get out using the steps right in front of our
loungers. Unfortunately my keen-eyed dad had clocked something that no one should Oh God.
Oh yeah.
Dad's a bastard.
I hope he didn't.
Oh, what did he do?
Oh, I'm scared.
Oh no! As if this wasn't embarrassing enough for the poor girl, my dad, without missing a heartbeat, said, Hey, love, what's that?
Pull here for life jacket.
Oh, no.
What a prick.
Cute embarrassment running off and a lot of nervous giggles.
The poor woman.
Your dad's a knob.
Your dad's a knob, man.
So there you go.
But actually, in his defence,
I mean, he sounds like
no but you never know
whether it's just
one of those things
when it just pops to your mind
and you say it
I mean funny joke
I'll give him that
funny joke
don't say it to a stranger
say it to your wife
say it to your wife
when she's getting over there
don't say it to your daughter
wife or sister
wife or sister
no not even sister
you haven't got a sister
I don't have siblings
I don't know how it works
my brother said to me
oh what's that
I'd go
Kevin it's me tampon string
You dirty, rotten little bastard
Mum!
I'd pull it out and hit him with it
I'd smack it across his face
Ah, yeah, your dad's a dick, mate
Got another one here
Hi, Rosie and Chris
I was walking home from work yesterday
And came across an unconscious woman
Who was bleeding.
What?
Yeah.
I work in a hospital, so I sprung into work mode and started assessing the situation.
Thankfully, another hospital employee was passing, so we started to treat the woman.
She had lacerations, love that word, and hated at the same time.
It's a good word.
It's like axe.
I don't think I've ever been able to use it.
Laceration.
I don't think I'll ever be able to use it in a sentence.
Well, I hear that word quite often
with my true crime podcast
a lot
I use it
I hear it a lot
but it is a good word
I've never used it myself
I just
I don't
I can't see me
ringing like
you know
NHS direct
or whatever
and them being
what's the problem
me going
I've got lacerations
on my back
and I go
sorry
I've cut myself
well why don't you
use it with
Robin Falls over
go he's lacerated
his knee
we'll bring it back we'll bring it back Rosie quick come Sorry? I've cut myself. Well, why don't you use it with Robin Falls over? Go, he's lacerated his knee.
We'll bring it back.
We'll bring it back.
Rosie, quick, come.
He's lacerated his knee.
Oh, shit, you come running.
You just need to pep a pig plaster.
It's like the smallest fucking cut in the world.
You said lacerated.
I just wanted to use my new word.
She had lacerations on her leg,
which were bleeding heavily.
So between the two of us, we managed to get her into the recovery position
and stop the bleeding by applying pressure.
Oh gosh.
Fast forward, and the paramedics came
and took care of the woman.
Afterwards, we realized our hands were covered
in this woman's blood.
The woman who helped me asked if she could wash her hands
at my house, as I lived close.
I said okay, and we walked to my house.
I showed her to my bathroom,
and she washed her hands and went on her way.
After she left, I went into the bathroom to clean the sink,
only to realise, to my horror, my vibrator was on the side of the sink.
I'd been cleaning it the night before and forgot to put it away.
I am absolutely mortified a random stranger came into my house
to find my bright pink vibrator.
She works in my hospital and I'm terrified I'll bump into her
and I will forever live
with this shit.
That's lovely.
That is lovely.
I just loved how that,
it just came from nowhere.
That story was like,
I thought they were going to,
I thought they were going to have sex.
Yeah, well,
really,
is that where your brain went?
Is that what this podcast
done to you?
Yeah.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
For me,
that was like a casualty
or like a 999 storyline
and then it went straight into two pints of lager and a pack of crisps.
I just love that joke.
It's like.
Got another one here.
Now,
obviously lockdown,
the only positive thing about this whole horrendous experience for me personally has been,
I've been able to spend a lot more time with our son,
which as the year was planned.
The only positive thing.
Yeah.
As the year was planned,
I would never have,
I would never,
I wouldn't even been here. The only positive thing. Yeah, as the year was planned, I would never have, I wouldn't even have been here.
It was crazy stuff.
I would like
mine and Robin's father-son relationship
to aspire to,
I'll get something next to this one
I'm about to read here.
Okay.
Hi, Chris and Rosie.
I normally receive weird letters from my dad,
but this one I had to bring to your attention.
Today, I received this letter from my dad,
which you might like to read.
It went as follows.
It's a letter.
Okay.
Hi, son.
I hope you are well and enjoying life.
I didn't attend church this morning.
You see, I had a slap-up meal last night of two pork chops, mash and beans
with four bottles of plonk.
First of all, I love the way he speaks.
Slap-up meal.
Haven't heard that for years.
Plonk.
Great.
Yeah.
I woke this morning at 8
a.m and just couldn't stop farting now this is very dangerous as the church toilets are closed
due to covid 19 and if i followed through i'd have nowhere to go it's gone 1 30 p.m now and i'm still
continuously farting i've got the window open because i've literally been farting now for six
hours and my room is beginning to stink has this this ever happened to you? Love you man.
Dad.
So
was this a pen to paper letter?
Or a text?
It's a letter and he sent it to him.
That's amazing.
That's very strange. Isn't that amazing?
I quite like it. So are you planning on doing this
with Robin? I want that level of relationship
with Robin. I want, hey of relationship with robin i want
hey son how's your fart i'm farting loads ever happen to you write us back he fucking he had
to go to the post box to send this i do love letters i've got to be fair he's probably got
the five minutes out of his room yeah a bit of breath of fresh air yeah the thing is i can
imagine robin enjoying that now and for the next few years.
When he's an adult, I'm not sure so much.
Yeah.
If you got a letter from your dad just telling you all about it,
I mean, I'd be upset.
I would be.
I'd be like, Dad, please, this is not what I need.
Dearest Rosie, my farts have been pungent this eve.
I love as well, can I just say.
There's so many blokes who think
like this and i've never ever had to think like this in my entire life it's very dangerous it
says here as the church toilets are closed due to covid19 and if i followed through i'd have no
way to go who why do men just constantly think they're gonna shit their pants yeah that that
is a reoccurring thing that I've found during this podcast.
I can honestly say, as a female, and I don't know any other females,
that if I've had a bad stomach, the first thing,
it's not been, oh gosh, I'm going to shit myself.
It's been, I've got a bad stomach.
I'm going to feel really poorly.
Like, I'm going to be on the toilet all day.
Not, I'm going to shit myself.
Why is that the go to thing

Dear Rosie and Chris,
please keep me anonymous
due to the pure fear
of this ever happening again
in my very small town
in Somerset.
Oh, lovely.
We've just been there.
I know.
Sorry.
Shout out to Somerset.
Can you remember when we got lost
on the way into the Longleat campsite
and we went down a dirt road
and it was a dead end
but there was one house on it and as we're reversing up the guy like popped out and just
stood waiting because he knew he knew we were lost and i wound the window down and we went to
say something and he just went you're trying to get to the campsite with a with a sat nav
and we went yeah he went you don't use sat navs around these parts i was like you go right right
right right right right right you know you don't trust satnavs around these parts
that was his exact words
fucking legend
amazing
beautiful accent
yeah
amazing
I thought I would share
a story about
something I did
in my early 20s
which has never
been forgotten
to this day
15 years on
from when the
disastrous event
took place
oh I like this
I was home for the summer after my first year of university
and we were going through a heatwave.
Desperate for a cold drink, I popped into my local Sainsbury's.
I grabbed a basket and slung it over one arm into the crook of my elbow
and continued to use my phone in the other hand
as I headed over to the cold drink section.
This is very well written.
It's lovely, isn't it?
Jesus.
I know. I haven't had to change any of it, I know. It's like well written. It's lovely, isn't it? Jesus. I know.
I haven't had to change any of it, I know.
It's like a little short story.
Well, she's back from university.
Oh, well, yeah.
La-di-da.
Yeah.
This was back when having a Nokia 3210
made you feel like the coolest person on the planet.
Focused on my text message
and vaguely the direction I was walking in,
I accidentally bumped into a small child walking with his mum. Happy days. As I was walking away, I heard the most almighty crash.
The sound of cans banging filled my ears, and a strange fizzing sound erupted out of nowhere,
followed by shrieks of horror from other customers.
As I wandered backwards to roughly where I had nearly hit the child,
I saw a large tower of local cider on a stand being promoted with a special offer on it.
To my utter horror, the tower was slowly collapsing as the cans crashed to the floor and were slowly fizzing and exploding all over the shop.
Jesus!
I realised I had hit one of the cans with the very corner of my basket when avoiding the child's head,
nudging it slightly out of place and causing the tower to wobble and slowly fall to the ground.
God.
Ciderfoam was slowly but surely spraying...
Ciderfoam!
Ciderfoam!
Oh, you want to watch out for that there, ciderfoam round these parts.
Oh, watch out for that there,
cider foam around these parts.
It was slowly but surely spraying out all over the refrigerated raw meat
in the aisle opposite.
Oh, God.
Over the bunches of flour for sale,
over the yoghurts and ready meals on offer
at the end of the aisles,
hitting the ceiling,
and worst of all,
spraying onto my unaware fellow shoppers
as they unknowingly walked up and down nearby aisles.
Jesus.
I saw an old man being hit across his face in glasses with cider.
It's a fucking disaster.
A dad holding his young baby got splattered across the baby's back.
Cider was even dripping off the top of the refrigerator
onto packets of mince and cuts of beef.
Bloody hell.
I stood there feeling helpless and ashamed, knowing that it was all my fault.
However, things really took a turn for the worse.
The shop assistants who were trying to stop the cans slowly popping open and mop up the mess
called for security to clear the area to avoid more people being showered.
They came running across and a very
guilty red rash of shame filled my cheeks as people began to look at me pointing. Eyeing up
the number of cans that had smashed semi-open and thinking about how much of my student loan I had
left from my first year I began to feel a little worried. Knowing I wouldn't be able to cover the
cost I decided to try and be helpful instead to avoid having to call my parents
and ask for financial help for my cider fallout. I bravely approached the store manager and I looked
at him square in the eye and said I'm very sorry I think I may have knocked the cider over can I
please help you tidy all this up? He looked me up and down and simply said, no, you can leave and not come back
ever.
I got home to my parents who initially gave me a bollocking for coming home stinking of
booze in the middle of the day, assuming'd been drinking all morning i ended up crying in my dad's arms after what felt like
the most embarrassing morning of my entire life wow my family were pissing themselves laughing
when the next day my dad dragged me back to the store to properly apologize for my behavior
and offer to the pay the cost of the cider and clean up the mess. Wow. Needless to say, it took 10 years before I even attempted to go back.
And even now, I really don't hang about in there for very long at all.
I didn't like cider then and I don't like it now.
Brilliant.
Wow.
Wow.
Nice story that, isn't it?
Yeah.
I mean, don't text.
Don't text while you're walking around.
Fucking hate it.
I hate it when people walk into me on pavements because they're busy texting. Yeah. Stop it. Stop doing it. Don't text while you're walking around. Fucking hate it. I hate it when people walk into me on pavements because they're busy texting.
Yeah.
Stop it.
Stop doing it.
Don't text while you're driving either.
I saw someone walking to a lamppost once
because they were texting.
Loved it.
One of the best things I've ever seen.
Got a little bit of an erection.
I was that happy.
Brilliant.
Brilliant story.
The thing I took from this is
you don't see many stands like that anymore, do you?
That's why.
Is that why?
Very bold.
I mean, we're talking...
I would... I think that's dated is that very bold i mean we're talking i would i think that's dated
perfectly i imagine nokia 3310 time was when that kind of shit stopped yeah because people started

to be fair
you love that new sofa
so don't even dare
I do love it
but still
still got a bit
of a funny smell
yeah
oh that's
oh god
nobody hasn't settled
in the house yet
you walked in the house the other day and went,
right, what's that smell in the house?
What is it?
Something smells.
And you walk around like a fucking Labrador.
I'll get to the bottom of it.
Something smells and I don't know what it is.
There's something rotten somewhere.
And I'm thinking,
has Robin stuffed a sandwich behind the settee or something?
Is there something...
There's something going on.
Good luck with that because I can't smell it.
I'm going to find it. Where would you ban me from i don't know you don't really go in any
amazon i'd ban you off amazon i know it's not i know it's online but you just love amazon there's
someone comes from amazon nearly every other day honestly every time like on like lad bible or on
the internet or whatever every five minutes they put the post out photos
of Jeff Bezos
and say
his net worth
went up 8 billion
yesterday and all that
and everyone's like
shocked
and I'm like
nah yeah I get it
that's me
that's me buying stuff
all the time
constantly
just shit
just shit
like you know
I remember when
we needed curtain hooks
you know like
I'll get our Amazon
I was like
go to Wilkinson's
why would I
fucking walk around
Wilkinson's
because they might not have them like I said before I've said it on one of was like, go to Wilkinson's. Why would I fucking walk around Wilkinson's? Because they might not have them.
Like I said before, I've said it on one of the,
it was a sponsor once, the guy's gone in touch, I remember.
It was a sponsor once, walking around the shops
looking for stuff when the internet exists.
My mum still does it, she goes, my mum says things like,
hey, I went to six shops to try and find them curtains.
Fucking go online, click it,
someone will bring it to your house.
It's amazing, we're living in the future.
You're killing the high street, you are.
The high street, the high street. You are. The high street.
The high street.
You are killing it.
Well, the pigeons should wear nappies
if they want me to go back to the high street.
Stop it.
So we were discussing this, Rosie, the other day.
You put a photo online of your baked potato
with balsamic glaze on, was it? Oh, yeah.
And someone messaged going,
it's got brown sauce!
On your tuna?
Yeah, on your tuna
because people are nuts.
What made you say that?
Because I've had an email
about your food photos.
Oh.
And I said to you,
people's opinion on food
is crazy online.
The two things that you,
if you're going to put
a photo online
that you want,
if you want people
to argue with you,
put a Sunday roast on
or put a full English breakfast on. Full English breakfast, yeah. Everyone has got an opinion. Well, there's only one Yorkshire, small York want people to argue with you, put a Sunday roast on or put a full English breakfast on.
Full English breakfast, yeah.
Everyone has got an opinion.
Whoa, there's only one Yorkshire.
It's small Yorkshire.
Two big Yorkshire.
Why is your beans touching your egg?
Not enough bacon.
Where's the mushroom?
It's fucking ridiculous, right?
It's breakfast by committee.
Uh-huh.
Madness, right?
Someone's emailed in with this, right?
About my jack potatoes?
Yeah, so they got annoyed
about something.
I'll get to it,
but then just listen
to the hypocrisy in this email.
It's incredible.
But I think they're aware.
They're going to wind us up.
They're aware.
They're very self-aware.
Rosie, I saw on your Instagram the other day
that you were enjoying a jacked potato with tuna
and a side of beans.
Yeah.
Tuna beans blodge.
I'm all for...
She's abbreviated three times to J-potato,
which I quite like.
Nice.
I'm all for a tuna J Potato or a beans J Potato,
but not the two together.
Anyway, I feel mean for being appalled
by this flavour combination,
and I started thinking about my weird food habits.
So she's realised that she's bad as well, right?
Good.
Listen to these.
Whilst at university, one morning after a heavy night,
I discovered the combination of pizza crusts
dunked in strawberry yoghurt.
Horrible.
What?
Get in the sea.
And she's slagging me off,
having beans with me tuna jacket potato.
Two things that are very well associated
with the jacket potato.
I just happen to have them at the same time.
She's dipping her pizza crust in her yoghurt.
Is she having a laugh?
And that's at uni, so that's the next morning.
So that's communal pizza crusts, I'm guessing. So that's other bits, so that's the next morning. So that's communal pizza crusts,
I'm guessing.
So that's other bits of people's corner of the mouth.
Oh, that's leftover crusts.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She wants locked up.
I have no idea what possessed me to do this,
possibly still drunk,
but don't knock it until you've tried it.
Well, I'm not going to.
I'm never going to try it.
My friend at uni used to have rice,
baked beans and grapes.
Horrific.
Rice and baked beans,
I could get on board with that. Could you? Absolutely. Irific. Rice and baked beans, I could get on,
I can get on board with that.
Could you?
Absolutely.
I love beans.
Yeah?
Bit carby though.
Bit carby,
rice and beans,
yeah.
Rice and beans,
it's a thing.
Yeah,
but this will be
baked beans,
Heinz in a tomato sauce
and like rice and beans
is a thing,
but it's different flavours,
isn't it?
Or it's kidney beans
in a rice.
It's like black beans
usually, yeah.
Yeah, this is...
Fair enough.
Yeah.
My fiancé eats raw pasta as a snack.
That's not good for you.
Spaghetti or penne like they are crisps.
That's really...
Like a fucking horse.
How is that possible?
That's really bad for you.
That's going to cut your anus when it comes out the other side.
Not if you drink enough water.
It'll just go pastry inside, won't it?
No, I need boiling water.
Oh, good point. Maybe drink water and go for'll just go pastry inside, won't it? No, I need boiling water. Oh,
good point.
Maybe drink water
and go for a run.
That's not...
Go to sauna?
Maybe don't you
try pasta?
You know?
And finally,
the other night,
I don't know why,
but myself and my fiancé
tried one of our
dog's new
Weight Watchers biscuits.
Great.
And we're both
pleasantly surprised.
Dogs have got
Weight Watchers biscuits?
Well,
that's the main thing I took from that is someone's looked at their dog and went,
right, you could do with using a couple of Clem.
You fat little shit.
What are you putting your dog on Weight Watchers biscuits for, you bastard?
Poor bloody dog.
Put your dog on a diet.
Let's take a minute here.
I can't stand seeing overweight little dogs and cats.
Well, it's harsh, isn't it?
Not worse, is it?
Yeah, well well it is
sort of animal abuse
but I mean come on
weight watchers
but you can have biscuits
but you can have these
these
non
no sugar
non sugary ones
refined
and they tried them
they tried them
said they're lovely
said
we're
we are seriously
considering eating them
in a bowl with milk
like cereal
really really and she dares come at me We are seriously considering eating them in a bowl with milk like cereal.
Really?
Really?
And she dares come at me with having beans and tuna. Do you know what she should do?
She should get your name out of my mouth.
Get my name and my jack potato out your mouth.
Hi, Chris and Rosie.
Hi.
So my story is, my mum and dad are divorced and they're both remarried.
And now we all go on holiday together.
What?
With the new husband and wife.
We always have fun and really enjoy it.
We've been greased together to say my dad's new wife's family.
Rosie.
What?
Swingers.
What?
They're swingers.
No, they're not.
They are.
There's no other explanation for that.
That's really weird.
Well, can I finish the question?
We all enjoy it and it is still spoken about today
My question for you is
If you ever got divorced and remarried
Do you think that you could go on holiday together
With each other's new partner?
That's strange isn't it?
I mean that's lovely
I don't mean to poo poo anyone's
They've made the best of life and that's a lovely situation
They broke up and they're still going on holidays Together, both sets of I mean, that's lovely. I don't mean to poo-poo anyone's, you know, they've made the best of life and that's a lovely situation that they've got.
They end up broke up and they're still going on holidays together.
Both sets of... Personally, I think it's absolutely lush.
That's all I wanted to say about it.
I think it's lush, but I think it's weird.
Do you think we could do it?
No.
Right.
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
Because I think if you really have been in...
We've talked about this before.
If you really have been in love,
fully, deeply in love, I think you then can't just be mates afterwards i don't think it's i don't think it's possible yeah i know no i do know what you mean i think well obviously we're
just talking about how we are now yeah and if you were on holiday with another woman i'd be you know
devastated it would be horrible but i don't know whether in years and years to come if anything god
forbid did happen like my mum and dad split up.
They worked together for 32 years.
And I think when you've got children together,
it's a lot different.
But I personally, all I took from that was I think that's really nice.
And it must be nice for them as kids to be able to have their mum and dad
go on holiday together.
Absolutely fair play to the parents.
Bloody well done.
But yeah, I don't know if we...
Thinking about it
right now i couldn't do it i mean going on holiday with mates is annoying anyway going on holiday
with me to used to have sex with and live with could be even more i mean come on like if you're
when you say that there i was like which of our mates have you had sex no that's not what i meant
do you know what i mean like oh what time we're going to have a dinner oh she's not ready oh he's
funny no no he's still at the bar like oh fucking and then oh do you know i I mean? Like, oh, what time are we going to have a dinner? Oh, half seven. Oh, she's not ready. Oh, he's fanning on.
Oh, he's still at the bar.
Like, oh, fucking.
And then, oh.
Do you know what I think as well?
If that was a thing, and if we split up,
and then we went on holiday with our new partners,
if your new wife was moaning about you,
I'd be like, yeah.
Oh, God.
And I'd just join in.
Fucking horrible.
That'd be horrible.
But you'd be the same with my new husband,
so it would just be really strange. Yeah. And you'd be like, yeah, they used to do that all the time. Oh, it And I'd just join in. Fucking horrible. That'd be horrible. But you'd be the same with my new husband. So it would just be really strange.
Yeah.
And you'd be like,
yeah,
they used to do that all the time.
Oh,
it's not your problem now.
Yeah,
but for us,
it would be even worse.
I know.
Because it would literally be,
oh,
he does that.
And you'd be like,
well,
listen to this.
You'd whip your phone out and go,
look,
episode 42,
a podcast we used to do together.
Didn't we?
Listen,
I talk about it.
Yeah,
have a listen.
And you'd just be playing it constantly.
I know.

Very sweet.
