The Welcome back to Nomad podcast. I'm your host Tim Nash and this is my friend and colleague Joy Brooks.

Hello.

Although we're deep into January now, Joy, New Year's greetings to you.

Thank you.

Did you have a nice Christmas and New Year?

I did have a very nice Christmas a New Year. It would be better if our relatives weren't in

Guilford and Edinburgh respectively. I thought you'd say it'd be better if we hadn't seen our

relatives. Well, there would have been less travelling. So yeah, quite a bit of travelling fitted

into one week, but it was all very pleasant and lots of lovely food was eaten. Were there any

awkward nomad related conversations that you had to stamp on?

No, I don't think any of my wider family listened to nomad.

Oh, so blessed.

So blessed.

Or if they do, they stay very quiet about it.

So, yeah, it's all good.

In fact, I don't think there were any particularly awkward conversations at all, which,

yeah, that's got to be a result, hasn't it? Yeah, I had one or two nomad-related ones where I had to

kind of say, look, can we just drop this? It's Christmas. Let's have a drink. See, I want more

details now, Tim, but I'm not sure you're going to give those on air, are you? Give them to you over lunch. Okay, that's all right. Can I tell you about my most amazing Christmas present, though?

It's a heated throw.

So it's like a fluffy blanket that you just plug it in and it warms up.
