myself at work now a work cover for a nasty
back injury means sadly income has dropped to Christmas A
(00:41):
little little word tough for me and the boys. So
I've got a nine year old son and a ten
year old I'd simply love the gift of a real
Christmas tree that we can all decorate. NOI of course
we can do that. We'll get you some extra bits
as well. We don't know me. I hope you wor
get better in the new year and have a great
turn next year. Yes, Christina here, Christian, Actually all I

Good morning Christian, Jack and Patsy. This is Karen. All
I want for Christmas is perfume. I've got three teenage
boys who will never ever get me this. It's a
tiny little pleasure, Christian, but I've never ever treat myself
to this. It's all about providing for them this year.

(01:50):
I'd love a thirty meter retractable garden host.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I love my retractable garden host.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Once you go retractable, you will go back. It is
a joy. It's like the vacuum, you know, those ones
where you can stand on and it pulls it in.
That's what they should do with umblinical cords. When babies
are born. I don't have a thirty meter one, but yeah,
we'll get you a thirty meter retractable garden hose. And
that's what you want for Christmas? Joe. Who's to get
in the way of that? Enjoy? Genuinely? Is there are
(02:19):
things that are not that expensive that actually are an
everyday humdrum game changer. That retractable hose? Is it for me?
If you're a dog goinger, sometimes the dogs, you know,
they do a dodo in the garden and it's it
doesn't it's not an easy one to picture.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Oh yeah, it hasn't said proper.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I get the hose out and wash it into the
garden and so or go nature. Mother, Uh, you have
this nourish whence you came? Yes? Oh, ths to my
retractable hose and then I just drop it might drop
hose drop on the garden and does it all for me?
Dis ant? Can I have moving boxes for Christmas? We're
(02:56):
moving this year and I can't get hold of free ones.
They all cost quite a lot of money. Yes, we
give you some movie boxes, Michelle. And then this is
an interesting one. Lady called Melanie dropped into my inbox
yesterday slid run in there. Photo of her, and she
needs some help to complete I can only describe as
a work of art on her arm. Let's call her
(03:18):
up right now and say that, yep, we give her
the money to complete this work of art, a very
unique tattoo. She's a grandmother.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Hello, Melanie, Hi, how are you.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
I'm going Melanie, So you're live on gold right now?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Oh? Okay, Hi, thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Very much for emailing me yesterday. That's all right, amazing tattoo.
Tell everyone listening right now. So you're you've got granddaughters.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah, I've got on forty seven and some young grandma
very proud two year old and seven week old granddaughters.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Well we and so on your arm. You sent me
picture of your arm. There's a it looks like a
completed tattoo already.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
It looks like it. That's not.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
So.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I had so many other ideas, but there was other
things that needed to come first. So yeah, that's finished.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
There all right. Now, tell everyone listening because it'll be
dying to know what is the tattoo to sort of
have something permanent on you that celebrates your love for
your granddaughters.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
So their mum is a weekend and she practices the magic.
She makes her own creams and balms and all that
sort of stuff. And we call my granddaughter's little witches.
So there's two little witches.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
So your daughter's a weekend witch, a wicked witch is
a white witch, Isn't that right?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, I love the idea. Obviously Friday and on the
weekend I get the broom out and the cape and
the black cat taking all the way again.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
I went up one day there was a little cauldron
going with some bat wings and all that sort of
stuff around it.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
So are you are you joking? You mean actual?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
But at all? Yeah? Would you get those in the countries?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Those in cultural internationals they shove on British food bat wings, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
She's they was in the country, so all sorts of
stuff they get.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
So those bat wings in cauldrons, can you? I feel
like bat wings? Nights bat wings. So the tattoo then
I'm looking at it's two witches on moons, year on year.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
So one of them, one of my granddaughters is quite chunky.
She's the little one. She was born.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
She's only they're not chunky. They just got that, you
know that. You yeah, that little baby fat on the
put underneath a chunky one.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
She was nearly ten pounds, so we call her the
chunky babe. And then Rhiannon's quite petite. So we've got
one which that's a little bit more voluptuous, and one
that's a little bit swimmer, and one that's got sass
and there are wings.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Now, the the way that these are who don't mind
me saying this, but the way these witches are dressed
is it's like the outfits are from Risky. I was
going to say sexy Land witches, but you say Risks
and and and what's the thinking with that?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
I just I did a lot of looking at pictures
and stuff and just put little bits together. And I
still wanted it to be when they're a little bit older,
not baby is. It's definitely not. So what's missing from
(07:12):
the tonne because it looks like a fully a.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Jumper?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
No, I want to put a little caldron, a little
back flying around, a spider in a web, and just
a bit of background.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
So we listen. We would love to finish this work
of art on your arm. What an amazing nanny you are, Grandma, Yes, grandma,
we have to have your grandma arm completed. It's a
work of art. It's a Sistine chapel on your left
arm there, Melanie, Yes, it's Please send me other PHOTOO.
