Folding Pocket

It's time now for the chipping forecast, issued by Folding Pocket on behalf of Andrew Cotter, Eddie Pepperall and special guest Ian Carter.

Hello there, welcome to the chipping forecast.

Now, if you live in the northern hemisphere, it's that time of year when it's getting bit dark and in the UK largely it's very wet at the moment as well

and if we're honest all over the world it's rather dark at the moment so we're here to bring

just a little bit of light sometimes some levity if we can by talking about people called

stonebridge or celebrities playing videos in public places um so i'm andra cotter uh M.A. Ones, Ian Carter, His Excellency, a special guest,

Ian Carter is there. I can see you. Yes. I'm an inch taller. Can you tell?

Have you boosted? Are you on a booster cushion? No. I know. I've just done my Pilates.

And at the end of the lesson, the instructor said,

and everybody is an inch taller. I walked home with a real bounce in my stride.

I'm sure you'd rather have been an inch longer.

So, I mean, how long is that? That's two minutes in? Not even that, I think.

And Eddie's made his appearance. Hello, Eddie. How are you? Dame Edna here. Dame Eddie here. How are you guys? Good, all good. Ian's an inch taller. Yes. That's how that instructor sounds like an absolute charlatan. You're an inch taller. You're not an inch taller. You're maybe... I am. I've done all my stretches and I'm a new man. New man. Yeah. And new man. Excellent. Well, I'm feeling like a very old man. This shipping forecast is brought to you by Lemsip,

because once again, once again, LaGripe has gripped me. This is why I'm so wary of human contact.

Because, so I was over in Paris at the weekend, airport, airplane, crowded restaurant,

bus stadium, coming into contact with hundreds of people who just want to shake my hand

and say hello.

And that's why.

So I just, and also because I think I have the sort of weak and feeble immune system that just, I don't know, it's just I can't resist colds. So I'm struggling a little bit again. I had my flu jab last week. Did you? Do you have to do that at my age? You do. It is free for the over 70s. So you, Eddie, Eddie, have you, Eddie's never had a flu job, you don't need to have a flu injection. I had my very first one last year actually, so, and then I got flu. So, but my, my thinking on it is that it would have been worse flu if I hadn't had it, so. I think you should have some bone broth, Andrew. Bone broth. Remember bone broth from the days of the pepper pot. Do you still do bone broth occasionally? No, I need to do. I need to get back on it. I need to lose a few pounds, actually. I waved myself in Qatar and that was, oh, I need a healthy period of time, I think. But you're a, you're a big bone broth lad. You're a bone, a big boned, what I'm talking about? You're a heavier frame than, no, you look in good shape, Eddie.

I think, no, I'm just trying.

I think I'm coming in a bit heavy.
