We're back baby - This week we have the glorious Hollie Mcnish! One of my favourite poets and people in general, a fellow member of Team GB slam team with myself and Vanessa Kisuule once upon a time, and all round hero.

My something old this week is the first poem I ever wrote, and Hollie kicks off with a Scottish-ish theme, we talk about the joys and shame of taking mini shampoo from hotels, Hollie borrows a cracking poem about jellyfish before finishing on a couple that are going to be in her new book (!) - I meanwhile share a brand new poem 'Unashamed' that I realise is on a theme I've always written about, and look into that in my other poems including one about how I specifically wasn't 'Cool Harry' at Uni.
