Summary
What does a project shifting dramatically, increased work responsibilities or hours beyond what was originally agreed, an overbearing and critical partner who always 'knows best', and someone in a casual relationship thinking and behaving as if they're in an actual relationship have in common?

| 0:00.0 | I'm Natalie Lou and you're listening to the baggage reclaim sessions. |
| 0:08.0 | Hello hello. |
| 0:10.0 | Ho ho. |
| 0:17.0 | Welcome to the final episode of 2020. Yes, it is time for me to go on a break. |
| 0:20.0 | I've been thinking about it for a little while. I always do take a break around this time of year and normally we would be going away whether that's to you know my mom |
| 0:30.9 | He has up in the Midlands here in England, or a couple of years ago we went to |

| 1:37.1 | the school has announced that it has to close and that the girls have to switch to remote learning |
| 1:42.0 | from next week due to a surge of cases of the virus and so they |
