Extra Mile. A fun and informative companion piece to go with this week's episode, which it may be best to listen to first.

Ah joy. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Little plane flying overhead. I'm in the area where the little

aircraft are, just outside.

Someone is building a fence.

That's going on all day and the fence is getting nearer and nearer to the boat.

So I was about to record.

I decided not to record I decided not to record I'm just going to do extra mile first

so I haven't actually recorded extra the there you go this is the joy This is the joy. This is the joy of being an independent

podcast of where you're recording from your kind of your bedroom or your

front room or wherever you can. You have to put up with ducks and boats and planes and motorbikes and people talking

about their piles and someone building a fence for no reason.

Oh anyway you can hear the parakeets. The parakeets are outside today. Oh, there's that.

There's a guy still building his fence.

Oh, it's a long fence as well. Looks like it's going to take

about a week to complete. Oh joy! Anyway, welcome to Extra Mile. The unscripted, unedited bit,

which is really weird because I haven't

haven't recorded it yet I haven't recorded the first bit yet so this all goes out

a sequence oh my lord oh life anyway life could be worse, couldn't it? If this is the worst that life is going to throw at me this week is some guy building an effing fence.

That's not terrible, is it? Could be worse. So what's going on? We did our live

shows last week so myself and Adam and Paul did our live show so thank you to

everyone who came to South Shields on the Sunday

and be beaming him my own neck of the woods on Monday that was good really nice to go
