Coffee Moaning for Sunday. All I have to say is, let's hope they have a tight schedule today so we don't have the almost 1 hour opus of Saturday. My poor fingies are tired. Title is "Julia Bradbury, CO2 Crisis, Looting in London, Keeping Pets Alive, Nostalgic Dishes, Low Traffic Neighbourhoods."
"A minute ago you would have seen what a shithole the kitchen is." Umm, thanks Nads. What a way to start the live.
Mark says it had to do with filming, but Nads says it doesn't "it has to do with US!" Mark:"It's YOU!" "Oh my God, so nobody eats in this house?" Mark says he would help if he wasn't EDITING today.
"Otherwise you wouldn't get the Sunday Show." Nads asks what has that got to do with anything and then proceeds to fluff and scratch her lid. Mark asks Nads to explain the broom situation in the member's live yesterday and Nadia says you had to have been there. Nadia is worry about her brain again, thinking she was in a different dimension. "I haven't been able to speak properly all moring and I am really worried about it. Scratch, scratch. Roll call.
Carly is having sausage and mash. "Now I want sausage and mash."
Welcome Jamie E. This welcome is taking forever. Nadia is trying to change her laugh. Something about getting oxygen in to prevent snorts. Mark coughing and they are still welcoming Jamie. Sam has had pie and mash. Stew is on for the Sunday Show-stew cobbler marmite and cheese.
Zoe loves Nadia's laugh. Talk about Nadia's laugh and Mark being an arse, clicking that damn pen of his. Nadia talks about being grateful. Mark is slurping his espresso and his middle finger has great prominence as he tips his cup. Nadia talks about her 3 friends Titty Gritty, Hannah and Dance Yer Tits Off, which leads to cancer diagnosis-the First Dates barman and Julia Bradbury. Slurp, slurp from Mark. Did you know Mark worked with Julia Bradbury on Channel 5? Nadia talks about an article about an breast oncologist, lived a healthy life, ended up with breast cancer. So Julia is going to have a mastectomy to avoid chemo. Talk abou the skinny shaming photos of her. (I dunno, she looked ill in those photos, not gonna lie.) Mark talks about Chadwich Boseman and how he seemed to him dour and removed. Mark then goes into saying how you should never judge someone's looks or how they are.
Oh please. You love judging people who have the temerity to give constructive criticism, eh Mrs. P? Nads talks some more about Julia's cyst situation and she was told to get one the next year and that is when they found it.
"Usually it's every 5 years, I don't know." Umm NO Nadia! It's every 2 years after 50, at least where I am. In the UK it is 3 years.
CO2 news. Gas prices going up, Russia says they haven't exceeded agreements. CO2 is used for preserving food, dry ice. Talk about the impact on Christmas and turkey supplies. Nads says she won't panic and won't use turkey and no brussel sprouts.
Ew brussel sprouts. Nads can't do without her roast potatoes. Shortage of sausage rolls and toys. Nadia goes to search for her phone. Mark asks what can you not live without at Christmas? Mark says chicken flavoured crisps. Zoe says that M&S isn't delivering to NI this year. "M&S are having a terrible time. I wonder if M&S wanted Brexit?" says Nadia. Allie says roasted parsnips. Katherine says Midnight Mass and bonfires. Mark wants to go to Midnight Mass and Nads says let's do it this year.
Atheists at a Midnight Mass? (I remember going to Midnight Mass as a kid and falling asleep with my pillow in the pew.
) John says at KFC one day there is gravy, the next day there isn't.
He goes to KFC on consecutive days? HP sauce, gammon, HRT shortages and Nadia says "Don't say that!" Tracey says isn't the moral that we need to buy local? She is vegan and gets her veg grown in London. (I don't know if I said this before, but I Googled and found out that Britain imports 80% of it's food.)
Nostalgic dishes. Foods we ate when we were kids. Examples of Spam, Angel Delight, salmon paste in tiny jars. (I remember devilede ham spread sandwiches as a kid.) Vesta curry, sandwich spread, pea wet-by product of mushy peas.
Someone mentions Nadia teaching them to cook.
Mark says he has been bitten on the side of his face.
Must be the fleas. It's
witch about Betty time. Nadia and her sisters wanted to try the Vesta Chow Mein, but Betty was against it, all scratch meals in their household. Quenchy cups. Bread and dripping. Mark doesn't know what dripping is.
Ice Magic. Corn beef hash.
Do you think pets are being kept alive longer than they should be? Some vet bigwigs have come to the conclusion that they are prolonging life over comfort for the owners. Most are saying yes. Sarah says they get money from it.
Mark says they throw a dart at a board and hit a figure. (You know what? This is not a fair assumption. Yes vet bills are expensive, but that is because we don't know the cost of medical care for ourselves. Running tests costs money, plus the 4 legged patients can't tell you what is going on.) Nads says with Chi Chi they were quoted without options.
(I find that hard to believe. Any vet I have dealt with does tests, makes a diagnosis if they can, tells you scenarios and will tell you what they would do in your situation, depending on what you are willing to spend and the pet's comfort.) Nadia goes on about not getting the sense of what it could be.
"Then you feel guilt for asking."
Never have, it's my pet, I want to know everything. Nadia talks about not wanting to go into debt over a pet. Yeah Miss Moneybags says that. Tracey is a groomer and sees awful cases of dogs on their last legs. Talk about Noel Fitzpatrick and criticisms of him.
What? Bionic legs? Mark wonders about that show, just because we can, doesn't mean we should. (I think him doing those things can potentially be useful in humans in some cases.) Pen clicking commences. One of Nadia's friends had a nurse say pneumonia was the elderly's friend and she wanted to punch the nurse, but after 2 years of problems with her dad she reconsidered that thought.
I've had pneumonia and it sucks. Tracey had a client who spent 14 grand on hip replacements for her retriever and it couldn't walk.
Well, that is stupid. Poor dog. Mark wants an ethical vet registry. "How do you unpack that?"
FFS Faith says they sometimes use emotional blackmail.
Who are these vets? Nads says these are only some vets and goes on about training. Finally Nadia comes in with some pertinent words, as she says vets struggle with money. Anyone who knows someone who works in vet clinics knows this, but Mark was surprised by the level of depression in vets.
They have one of the highest suicide rates.
HIT THE LIKE BUTTON, WE HAVE TO GO EDITING TO DO. Looting in London was the fracas on Oxford Street, some dude with a gun.
Whilst that was going on, people started looting that filth they are.
"It scares the hell out of me. What the hell is going on?" says Nads. COME ON GUYS GET THE LIKE BUTTON TO 200. Nads tells card winners how to get their cards. Low traffic neighbourhoods-create more CO2 emissions. Nads wails on about them. They create traffic around surrounding streets and no material change to air quality. Mark says electric cars get into fewer accidents because of range fear-fear of running out of power. Nads' friend has an electric car and says it's a nightmare.
Dramatic much? CLICK, CLICK, CLICK, CLICKITY CLICK OF THAT FRIGGIN PEN!
This friend ran out of power and when he plugged it in, it didn't work. What does Mark have to say to that? "They've got to sort that
tit out."
Member's shite info, talk about it being a bargain, it is like a TV show. ANYWAY GUYS HAVE A LOVELY SUNDAY, LOTS OF STUFF WILL BE LAN....and it cuts off there. Laters!
