Hello and welcome to like my did friends with me, Susie Ruffle.

And me, Tom Allen. Hello, everybody.

Here's the thing for the first time in ten years. I forgot that we were recording.

Well, you know, Sus, don't beat yourself up about this. I've done it. We've all done it.

I know, but it's not very me.

Well, you've not been 100% have you?

No, I have been quite rough. Thank you for telling everyone. I'm being such a brave soldier.

I wasn't going to say rough, but... You can see me, I do. I look quite rough. Yesterday, Alice looked to me and went, oh, you don't look good. Oh, that's nice. That's nice, which made me feel, honestly, great. Oh

No

Well, I mean

There's a lot of it going round

They're made me feel honestly great oh um no well i mean there's a lot of it going round there is a lot

It used to be you got a week off somewhere around Halloween. Now. And then you came back, then it was Christmas and you did Carol's.

Yes.

But none of this two weeks here.

One week there.

What is all this?

Inset days.

They always chuck in an inset day to confuse you.

A baker day, as I insist on calling them.
