| 0:08.3 | Now, I've got to say, I am a long way away from the baby stage. |
| 0:11.5 | My eldest has just started secondary school, and I'm looking back at such fond memories of when they were newborns. |
| 0:18.9 | But you know what, I don't miss? |
| 0:20.2 | That awful feeling of realizing you've run out of nappies |
| 0:23.5 | when changing time hits unexpectedly |
| 0:25.5 | or trying to get every last bit of nappy rash cream out of the tube |
| 0:29.0 | because you forgot to buy some during your last shop! |

| 1:41.3 | no-repeat workday, you won't hear the same song twice between nine and five, |
| 1:46.3 | which is ideal when you're in need of a proper soundtrack to your day. I also love waking up to |
| 1:51.9 | Gokwan and Harriet Scott on the Magic Radio Breakfast Show. They always put me in such a good mood. |
| 1:57.3 | And then at the weekends, it's Gabby Roslin and Mel Gedreich, brightening things up. |
| 2:01.6 | And if you're winding down in the evening, Nikki Chapman is there with mellow magic, the perfect |

| 2:24.1 | by Instant Pot. Picture this. You've just got home after a week of trekking about. You're shattered, |
