Hello everyone this is the game podcast from the Times I'm Natalie Sawyer and we do

thank you for joining us at what is a very difficult time for everyone we are

continuing to social distance here on our podcast.

So joining me remotely, as ever it's Gregor Robertson and today delighted to say

Allison Rudd joins us as well.

Oh, yeah, I know. I'm still well behind the, well behind some people, but I'm back in the game.

I probably shouldn't put on Twitter or anything because it'd be highly embarrassing, but
