| 0:00.0 | Hello, I'm currently out of office. |
| 0:04.3 | An article I read recently said we're more relaxed and more productive after a good break. |
| 0:14.4 | So, I've gone to Barbados for a month for science. |
| 0:22.4 | Yours, Toby. |
| 0:24.1 | Take your holiday as seriously as British Airways holidays take your holiday. |
| 0:29.0 | Atul protected. |
| 0:30.0 | You're listening to James O'Brien on LBC, where it is also Thursday. |
| 0:35.1 | We didn't have one last week, did we? |
| 0:36.5 | Because of Boris Blumen-Johnson. Well, we had a Thursday, you're quite right. But we didn't have one last week, did we? Because of Boris Blumen Johnson |
