Show Notes
This week we are celebrating the little known holiday of National Etch-A-Sketch Day, and talking about all the toys we wished we'd had as children and never got, like the Mr Frostie we both longed for with all our hearts, and of course, the game to end all games- Mousetrap. We also discuss the favourite toys we did have, and ponder with horror some of the toys now available to small children. Jo also shares her early ambitions to be an estate agent, Gill reveals why Shakespeare performances in Glasgow parks don't really work and our beautiful friendship nearly comes to a terrible end over a Fisher Price Village...
More from It's Five O'Clock Somewhere
This week, we are talking about solo travel. Jo is exceptionally brave, Gill investigates Teletext Holidays, we reminisce about the heady days of life with Tour Manager Ben, Jo touches a Parisian crotch and Gill relives a traumatic day in Barnard Castle...
This week, we attempt to talk productivity and why women are always expected to be busy, and occupied. Except, we decide to talk about literally anything else instead, including the time Gill nearly joined the Scientologists by mistake, thereby thwarting the patriarchy and their outdated notions for us...
This week we dip our distinctly unfashionable toes into the murky world of fashion, to discuss the latest trend of 'Literary Chic.' Jo's trousers provide a wardrobe malfunction, and she invents a new word, which leads to Gill having her best day after rummaging in some long forgotten places! What is Jo's word? What does Gill's rummaging reveal? You'll have to listen and find out!
This week we're talking about Life Admin- what it involves, why it's boring, why we hate it, and why we love the nice man at Halfords who fixes your headlight bulbs. Jo is grown up and serious and talks about wills, Gill lowers the tone as usual.
This week, we veer dangerously close to becoming serious, as we discuss the Femosphere, and whether it can really be classed as feminism, if it is a new thing, and if it is ever acceptable to use a mini sausage from a tin of sausage and beans as a cocktail garnish...?
