I guess Gordie's had a weird night overnight, so we're
going to watch him closely and see if he goes
back in his room tonight. He had his first nightmare.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
So did you have to be ancrupted going?
Speaker 5 (00:41):
I've just been talking to Bianca this morning and said
what happened last night? She left at about two thirty
and never came back again. She said a chicken monster
and a shadow monster were in his room. He was
so terrified. We couldn't find anything, so we had to
look in every room of the house till he was
satisfied that they were.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Do you know what when the girls started to have those,
part of me to them to keep talking so I
could make notes. These are great ideas for horror moones stop.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
So like what happened next? Hang on, let me get
my notebook. Describe the chicken Lightston.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
So the shadow monster and the chicken. Are they working
together or are they opposing forces? There's so much going
on here you can build a whole multi verse out
of this.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
How sweet is this?
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Then after they looked in every room, but they didn't
because that was still sleeping in the main bedroom. He said,
is data safe?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Ah?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Wow, you don't need to worry about him. He's always safe.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
So yeah, do you have an arrangement?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
I mean, sar and I had to like because of
these hours, the first time.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
He's actually been sleeping has been one of the things
we've not really had to worry about.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
This is and I.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Remember mental stage, and I remember I actually remember getting
terrible night me and being really scared.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Yes, yeah, I was.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
I was terrified that the robber was going to come
through the window all of that.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Remember did you used to have the landing night on?
Speaker 4 (01:59):
I have the whole day. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Do you remember everything suddenly you just went through a
face and suddenly everything in your bedroom could ski? Yes,
I remember for a while for a couple of weeks,
my poor my parents. My dad was like a shift oker,
and it's just like tired about now. And I would
just run down that clock, just checking about the light switches.
I thought, you know the two screws you get other
side of the switch. I thought there were eyes looking
(02:22):
at me. Start thinking that light switch is good.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
It becomes such you would have more of this than.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
I feel bad for him because you can only say
so many times like it's just a dream, no, it
wasn't real.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
And then suddenly I remember.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
So for years, Christmas time would be really exciting that
santage while he was asleep, Santa comes to the house
and then suddenly one one run to Christmas is like
just tears about that. So when Santa's not come down anymore,
and I would drive to a nearby car park to
reassure the girls. During the day, I meet him here
right by this Italian restaurant, right. I literally would drive
(02:58):
there and go so I'll get out and he eat
the slaves there and then and all the other moms
and dads are here as well. But here I go,
but I bring it in clouncy, so he's not coming
in the house or just like breaking in.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
No no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I've had
a word with him.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
I distinctly remember being prod of the same thing. I
guess my dad said to get us to sleep on
Christmas Eve because they're so giddy. It's like you got
to get to sleek as Santa will come. And what
if you're awake and he.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Sees you in the night he doesn't drop the present.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
It's like, what if that's a possibility. He's actually going
to be walking around in my room?
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Yes, something strange you'd never met. Wait, while I'm sleeping,
he's watching me? Yeah, how could any keep sleep sleep
through that? What are you watch to this weekend?

from me. First of all is a new Apple TV show.
There are two good Apple TV shows at the moment

angw she watched it all without me. I imagine you've
got that behind. As soon as soon as I missed
the start of an episode with her, I might as
well not catch up. She's so fast.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
And the other thing I've really enjoying is John how
new show as well Your Friends and Neighbors that is
very very good. And then because I spent a lot
of time on planes the last two weeks back, I
went back home to England over the US to break.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
I've watched a lot of movies.
Speaker 3 (05:12):

It's only like an hour and a half. However, the
movie I really loved is a gearhard Butler.

week is, you know, I love a jocutery board. I
(09:51):
might just have stumbled across the very best fig paste
that ever.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Exists in the world. I thought, some props, No, this
is incredible.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
So it is so paste. It is so lovely with
cheese and some meats.
Speaker 6 (10:06):
The place where I go, which is corked in Werriby
our local sort of cheese bar.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
So good you can't you mean cheese and wine?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Is it actually just what you go and ask for
a listen. I'm driving, so I've got to take it
easy on the destinate driver. Nothing too strong. I just
have some eat shopp down.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
It is a cheese and wine bar.
Speaker 6 (10:25):
But it's so good you can't get it in the shops.
I actually got them to get me a jar in.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
So how does that help the rest of us?
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Just anyone can go on wine and get it.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Just a normal sort of muggle, massive big jar.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Right, it's really it's nine hundred grams. Got this before Easter.
Look how much is left? There's like a sceric legs.
Speaker 3 (10:47):

Speaker 4 (10:53):
It's clearly there's only a left teppered.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Fig taste a paste, not taste.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
You have a taste.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
We can by it if we want online, go on line.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
I guarantee you all. Oh my god, it smells like
a fine claret smell.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
Cheese?
Speaker 4 (11:37):

Speaker 6 (11:39):
So if you love a securitary, it's peppered big paste.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
On the north side is the brand.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
If you go online, it's a dragon and it's in
a beautiful big jar. Guarantee. It's gorgeous. In toasted sandwiches,
it's a bit too tarty.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
It is tardy. You need the cheese, you.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Need like a triple Well, why do I need to
bring the cheese the party?
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Did you ever know you were bringing in jam?
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Now? I didn't know it's a cheese party. It would
have brought some.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
So good it's going on everything, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
And carry on eating. It's always nice. Sounds really good
on a microphone. Jack most of my time.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
But I'll quickly say how much I love Conclave, a
movie that I would never think to what except for
obviously it's so relevant. Right now we're about to go
into at the Conclave to choose the new Pope in
Italy very soon. It was such a great movie.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Fascinating, isn't it. Ray Fines is such a great Ray
Fines is it incredible? But I checked out the guy
Robert Harris is his name, who wrote the book Conclave
a few years ago, then they turned it into a film.
And now making my way through his back catalog.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Oh, I've read loads of stuff. He's about the Roman Empire. Yes, Cicero.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
That's my next oneat trilogy about Cicero. I think I've
stumbled upon my new favorite genre, which is historical fiction.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
You are entering prime dad, middle age. It didn't happen
to I was about forty two. You're doing it prematurely,
but just something changes in your DNA. Will you start
to feel the urge to read historical novels written like.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
A great fiction book.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
This stuff really all.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
The period details.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
So the one I'm halfway through at the moment is Precipice. Well,
this is about the UK Prime Minister on the eve
of World War One, on what he's done. He's had
an affair and he's sharing secrets with his lover.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
Yeah, it's brilliant, isn't it so good? Oh my god,
you love them. He's written loads of them. POMPEII.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
He's doing a whole series on Pompei, which is very
very good. Cicero is brilliant.
