| 0:17.6 | Hello Caroline. |
| 0:19.5 | After much fiddling of knobs, we are together. You've had some sound issues. |
| 0:26.1 | Honestly, Rome could have burnt while I fiddled during that. We're together. And you're amazed at the power of a Google Doc. |
| 0:36.4 | I am. I'm just, I feel like I'm a real professional now because I can see you a little note and we can send each other messages. Oh, I'm spoiling the magic for the listeners. Well, wait till they hear the claps. They get very excited about the claps. Rachel Cunliff filled in for Jackie last week. She was praised for her analysis, but they said she wasn't |
| 0:54.2 | smutty enough, so we're hoping for more smut from you, Caroline. |
| 0:56.5 | Okay, I'll do my best. I will do my mask. Ooh, uh. On that note, how big are your marrows |
| 1:04.0 | this year? Well, let's just put this right. |
| 1:10.8 | They weren't meant to be marrows, they were meant to be courgettes. |
| 1:14.9 | And I left them too long and then they grew into something that was looking like a marrow. |
| 1:20.7 | I was on holiday and Gary, my next door neighbour actually, was looking after my courgettes |
| 1:25.9 | and my oboe jeans this year. |
| 1:27.3 | That's a new, that's an emoji. That's a new, that's a new, |
| 1:28.6 | that's a new, that's a new, that's a new adventure for me, and my, my little tomatoes. And, |
| 1:33.5 | and he wasn't using a hose to water them. He was using a watering can with water from our water butts. |
| 1:39.4 | When I got back, they were very cute in that they were like little baby ones. So I had a little baby |
| 1:45.7 | obejene, a little baby corgette and a few baby tomatoes as well, which tasted nice, but they |
| 1:51.5 | weren't enough to feed a mouse. So unfortunately, so far this year, my marrows are, our |
| 1:57.5 | courgettes are disappointing. I'm hoping for an extra growth spurt come September. We all want a big marrow. We all want a big marrow. We all want a big marrow. Honestly. A bit of advice as well. Last time I had an obegene, cut it up, a bit of miso paste on it, and just bang it in the oven. It was absolutely lovely. That sounds lovely. I do a lovely obegee meat pool. |
| 2:18.0 | Well, actually, it's not meat. |
| 2:19.1 | It's an OBJ ball. |
| 2:20.2 | Let's not get into balls. We've done the marries. Let's move on. This is more smut than last week already. It's filth. This is descending very quickly into filth. And there's a lot of filth going around at the moment into our waterways, aren't there? There's shit everywhere, basically. |
