Hello James. I know we've just been yelling at each other. Today's been a really hard day.

Oh my God and I know that's an understatement for a lot of people.

No, but ours is particularly hard because that is your day is recording an extra

podcast that's extra stressful. This is a very special bonus episode. Boy is it?

I'm Claire James is sitting over, this is a suggestible pod.

We've been having some issues, or not issues, but you know,

everyone's working from home, everyone, like a lot of people have kids,

with them while they're working from home,

and it's bloody hard, mate. It it is it means you have to do all

your work in a three hour period before you go to bed yeah correct or something to that effect

and so I just had the little old genius brat idea over here because I'm an ideas kind of gal.

I'm an ideas gal. I'm so full of ideas. You're just full of ideas. You're just full of shit.

It's true. No, no, no. Yeah, it is true. Oh, I thought you're going to fight me on that. I'm so confused.

She tried to fight anything. He's too tired to fight. He's wearing his Harry Potter glasses from Movement Watchers.

So yeah you had the idea of, hey,

this is some stuff that we found that has been useful

to keep our kid occupied during this time period.

Yeah, so we thought we try and just talk about things because we're both teachers.

I've got a lot of teacher mates.

So I thought it would be useful to just try and talk through some strategies for FAMS.

I've gone through some recommendations. I have so many strategies.

Do you really? I got some strategies that I wrote down about 30 seconds before starting this.
