| 0:05.5 | Morning everybody, welcome along to your free podcast for today. |
| 0:08.6 | It is Wednesday, the 18th of March. |
| 0:10.4 | I'm another day older. |
| 0:12.0 | I nearly said deeper in debt, but I'm being a very mindful person. |
| 0:16.1 | I'll tell you why I'm being mindful, because I think people have suddenly realized that this thing could go on for quite a while |
| 0:21.6 | and it's a case of do you have enough money? Are you in danger of losing your job? All these things |
| 0:28.1 | I'm thinking about and all these things I'm worrying about because I think people will lose their |
| 0:32.1 | jobs. I think there will be companies that will go under. I think there'll be companies that |
| 0:36.5 | can't afford to keep going. |
| 0:38.4 | I've noticed selfridges have now closed. As from 7pm yesterday, you could still shop online, |

| 1:20.7 | It really is, it's, you know, driving people to distraction. |
| 1:23.9 | You don't need to do it. |
| 1:25.0 | There was a rather stupid picture of Daniela Westbrook. I'm assuming it was a dummied up picture with a trolley full of champagne. I don't know where she got the money from. She's absolutely brassy as far as I mean, what does she do now? Nothing. Nothing at all. So I'm assuming somebody said, this would be a good photo. Let's just load up the trolley with champagne.
