Hello everybody and welcome to Is It Just Me, another brand spanky new podcast with my co-host,

James. I'm Joe Elvin and together with a celebrity guest every week, we will dissect all the

nonsense going around in our heads. It's kind of like therapy, but it's a lot cheaper, hopefully,

usually a lot funnier. And today we have one of the best guests I could ever imagine.

She's not only a globally renowned interior designer with a wealth of talent

and a wealth of super clients to her name.

She is a really great friend of mine and a motivational speaker and a television presenter.

And I'll be honest, a super good egg. It is Kelly Hoppin's CBE and we got together with her to talk about all

sorts of things like I allowed myself to be judged for my non-bed making business. I just can't

be bothered. And that's one of the first things we talk about.

But yeah, James and I had a lot of fun with her so I really hope you enjoy listening to it.

Thank you. How are you? I'm good actually. I'm just like it's Friday so it's it's Zoom day. And as much as I love working a

couple of days a week from home, it's just not the same as going up and tapping someone on the

shoulder to have a chat about something. Everything's like down. Like even doing this, I was like,

oh my God, it's 3.30, you know, like you've got to stick to it. You haven't got time to peeve

and it's kind of weird. Well, I did actually factor in peeing time into your day to day,

do you remember? I know you did and it made me laugh. But actually, I didn't factor it into my day,

but thank you for thinking on me. Always, always. I'm never knowingly far from a toilet, Kelly. It's just like, you know,

I'm just too old for the, I don't have the bladder strength. Neither is your dog. Neither is your

sense of humour, Joe. What do you mean? You like a bit of toilet humour too.

Don't we all? Don't we all? There's plenty of it at the moment.

In this Zoom day and age, Kelly, is annoying, isn't it? Because I think it's just spontaneous.
