Tobes um, when are we going to tell the kids are we gonna string them along a bit first

Do you think so? Is that what you do?

Well I don't know. I suppose if you were talking to your children you probably would beat around the bush for a bit.

I think you take him out for dinner first or something.

I think, look, I think we should just say, how's your wheat bean tobs and stuff like that first?

So how's your wheat bean tobs?

Well, it's been, it's been okay. I've, I went and did some teaching on Friday and Saturday at this summer school just outside Oxford teaching. I gave I gave three lectures and then

discussed the lectures with a group of very smart 17 and 18 year olds afterwards.

And it's a summer school that my son, Ludo, attended last year.

It's for kids who want to do history and PPE at university.

And my son Freddie, I think, will want to go next year.

So, and I'll probably be lecturing again next year.

So I did that on Friday and Saturday.

That meant I couldn't go to Cardiff to see QPR play Cardiff. It was an away game. But we won James. We won 21, which was a great improvement on our previous week's performance when we lost four nil to Watford.
