| 0:07.4 | live. That is not purely a function of just having come back after the break and not having written a script or anything. It's, |
| 0:16.4 | it's because I really want to talk to all of our subscribers. I don't know how many people have signed up. You see, I couldn't make it in yesterday, and there's an important life lesson in this, you see. During the Christmas break, the wife has a diesel. So I said to the wife, make sure you drive the car a bit over the Christmas break, because when it's cold, diesels don't like being left on their own, right? |
