| 0:00.0 | That was a weary beginning. You had a bad night, didn't you do? You had a bad night |
| 0:09.7 | because you had an anxiety dream. Well, yes, there was just a sort of quick deck. We had a quick chat, didn't we just now before this starting. |
| 0:19.3 | Daisy had a fire alarm crisis, so we had to talk to each other for a bit. |
| 0:23.8 | I had the most awful anxiety dream about you last night. |
| 0:27.7 | And it's so, it made me laugh so much. |
| 0:29.6 | Made me laugh so much. |
| 0:31.3 | It was so classic. |
| 0:32.5 | All my dreams are always very sort of babyishly transparent. |
| 0:36.1 | But there's been, obviously, we've been, you know, |
| 0:37.6 | working up to the sort of the next show on Sunday, you and I. And you're obviously much busy than me. So you sent me a message to say that, so would you keep me on the straight and narrow in terms of what's next? I haven't got time to love very much. Yes, I said, yes, absolutely I said I will |

So last night I dreamt because I've got this tragic kind of, as you said, it's like an old-fashioned sort of menu restaurant thing that stands up that I could put in the front of on my side with, you know, a tragically written list out of the kind of topics that we're covering. |
| 1:23.6 | This is our running order. |
| 1:24.6 | This is our push running order. |
| 1:25.6 | I think we need to explain that a little bit better. In the previous tryout, Judith bought this peculiar little, it looks like a menu from an old fashioned restaurant. But inside the menu, she's inserted the running order, right? I can, you know, I'm the most short-sighted person in the world. Of course, I can't see it. I can barely see it. Yeah, but it's a comforting thing. It is. It is. It is. It is. So, anyway, in the dream last night, we got to a bit and you said, oh, Judith, I, what is it we're doing next? And so I looked at the kind of running order on the menu. |
| 2:01.6 | Couldn't read it, couldn't read it at all, couldn't find it then, found it and it didn't |
| 2:06.5 | make any set, you know, just one of those real classic dreams. |
