Coming up, on Digit.

I just used to sit in the playground and look around and think, God, this feels really

0:04.5

bleak.

0:05.4

This is, I can't see anybody who's like me.

0:07.3

And I found it really hard.

0:08.6

You know, I've moved quite a lot.

0:10.1

God, I do feel a bit like a nomad sometimes.

0:12.1

It's like, where do I actually belong?

0:14.5

And I went behind one of the boulders and had a huge dump.

0:18.9

To this day, I've never told him.

0:21.4

That's a message got better and better.

0:23.3

Every word, Kate, uttered.

0:25.2

25 years of happiness, and he's still not seen her poo.

And their sleepwear is so comfy, you won't want to take it off in the morning. Honestly, once you start wearing them, they just slowly take over your drawer. They do, and they do them in lovely colours. It feels like one of those small upgrades that makes a huge difference to your day. Yeah, and also,
