| 0:00.0 | Okay, folks, welcome to the latest edition, the latest chapter, the latest exciting ramblings and romanings of life on planet Porky, with myself, the Porkmeister, and of course, rock chick writer extraordinaire, Miss Leslie Ann Jones. |
| 0:37.4 | Miss Jones, how are we this fine day and |
| 0:40.5 | this is our first podcast of autumn um you know autumn came upon us at the end of last week and now |
| 0:48.5 | the thing is leslie annes i can't say what i normally say is how much I'll love to see the leaves |
| 0:54.1 | tumbling out of the trees because a lot of them have already tumbled. I've been doing that for months, |
| 0:59.1 | haven't they? It does feel as though somebody switched the weather off because one minute I was |
| 1:04.4 | still rushing about sweating like mad and wishing the heat would go away and it felt very |
