0:00.0	Okay, folks, welcome to the latest edition, the latest chapter, the latest great episode of life on planet Porky.
0:30.9	Thank you very much indeed for joining us.
0:33.2	And of course, a big thanks and a big welcome to Rock, Chick Extraordinaire, Ms. Leslie Ann Jones,
0:41.8	who's with me and sort of, sort of without me, with me and without me, Leslie Ann, that was a title and a Beatles song, with me.
0:49.9	Very clever reference there, I think, Mr. Perry.

1:40.6	Anachronist, yeah, anachronist to still have islands dotted all over the world where the queen is the head of state. And Barbados is a lovely island. It's got a beautiful culture. It's part of the West Indies where, of course, people, you know, like the great reggae stars come from. So I haven't really got a problem with Barbados, you know, setting out on their own.
