right now all I can smell is bleach that's an opener isn't it it's an opening line for a recording he started talking about bleach I didn't expect that to happen well neither did I but it is all I can smell right now so let me get my little pad out so I can tell you exactly what I've done today I'm keeping a track of stuff oh come on it's not very exciting but hey so I mentioned the other day about getting some letters about the council doing upgrades in my flat

so I called the council and they said I don't know so they said we're not doing that it's the subcontracted and they said we we don't really deal with that that side of things okay and I said well I've got a letter from this company they said oh yeah they're the ones putting in the they deal with the central heating they so called them so I did I called them and then they said so I've got an appointment with them for them to come and do a survey for the central

heating and also for the kitchen as well so they're gonna have a look and see what needs doing I was told to also phone another company to get a full asbestos survey done which is going to be this week and that needs to be done before they can go ahead with doing any work so I've kind of got on it so before that'll be this week and then next week I'll have the the surveys coming around for the central heating and for the kitchen which is pretty quick I mean I

don't know how long it's going to be before they actually put it in but apparently I am on the list to be done so it's not just a maybe it's it sounds like it's a definite which is pretty cool I did ask uh you could be doing my bathroom as well I did say it like that please sir will you be doing my bathroom will you be changing my bathroom and he said I don't know we don't deal with bathrooms oh so basically oh what's this oh right okay so yeah

that's it so I've got the the company come around next week surveying for the central heating but the kitchen people won't come around till I've received the survey results for the asbestos so they'll contact me still the same company but it's just a different department and they said we don't know about the bathroom because a different company does that we think they're called blah blah that's why I heard I said what kind of what kind of name is that and they said it's not the real name it's just we don't

really give it out you know on the internet in case lots of people phone them up asking for a free bathroom oh and I tried calling them but they they weren't in they was busy probably put it in bathrooms if I'm not on the list for a bathroom then there's a chance I won't get one but uncle sausages got a new kitchen and a new bathroom last year so because he literally lives opposite me or he did live opposite me I'm thinking maybe it's my turn downstairs below me got a

new kitchen and a couple of years ago got a new bathroom last year and Vinnie's mummy got a new kitchen a couple of years ago so they are doing it a new bathroom downstairs and in the other where my friend Luke used to live so they've got a new bathroom in there this was like recent as well so they are doing bits gradually over time so it's my turn to have some stuff done and because they're coming this week on Friday just to do the asbestos survey I realized oh oh

I'm gonna have people coming in here and I'm not house proud when there's no one in here but I turn a little bit house proud when I know that a complete stranger is going to come in here so I've got a lot of tidying up to do cleaning the bathroom cleaning the kitchen making it just look presentable I mean there's no point making the kitchen look like new because they probably say well we don't need a new kitchen do you so you know I'll add a few stains and stuff and

it's an old kitchen I would say it's been there for probably 20 odd years I think that the windows get changed every 30 years or something and the kitchen the bathroom I don't know about the bathroom but the kitchen I think is about every 20-25 years I've been here 11 years and the kitchen was a little bit worn well it was pretty worn to be fair then so I'm guessing I wouldn't be surprised if that kitchen's been there the whole time since this building was born in the late 70s or

early 80s I'm just thinking that maybe it's never had a new kitchen because it was every I suppose every 20 years it would make sense that the new ones do now wouldn't it so if they 20 years ago they had one yeah maybe that makes sense yeah and maybe they'll do that for the bathroom as well but you know they're definitely putting in new radiators I say definitely but that's what they said they've got an order to put in new radiators or contract and a new kitchen which is going to

be good because two the radiators one's just broken the knobs basically a knob just rusted and it's fallen off every man's nightmare um so yeah but apparently apparently my neighbor who also had new radiators put in oh yes new radios put in a couple of years ago as well or last year they put in smaller radiators than the one she had I like the radiators I've got for the length because they're the full length of the windows and I've got quite large windows in the bedroom and in the living room

and the radiator is it's actually longer or wider I suppose as than the actual window and I quite like that but apparently the radiators that they put in are going to be a pretty about maybe two-thirds of the size and different type of radiators they'll be the ones with like the the mesh at the top so yeah that'll be that'd be interesting well it won't be interesting but it'll be just whatever it is isn't it whatever will be will be why am I smelling um bleach could be an art question

and so I'm thinking I've got to get the place clean I got a place to get the place looking nice well less not nice so what I've done is I've filled the bath with water put washing up liquid and bleach in there filled the sink the kitchen the bathroom sink with hot water bleach and washing up liquid and poured loads of bleach down the toilet so I'm letting it all soak and a little bit of problem with bending over for too well just generally but for too long because of my

back so I'm trying to kind of I know it's a little trying to do a shortcut just a little bit of shortcut and I leave it on overnight hopefully the bleach will kind of remove some of the stains from the bath although it's not before you probably get a really bad visual it's not that bad it's not like stained badly it's just just needs to clean that's all and the sink the only thing the sinks really got is just toothpaste so I use this toothpaste and it's blue it's Colgate but

it's blue for some reason and uh it yeah it just stained the sink a little bit plus what's loud is that plus we have here what's the water that causes lime scale is it soft water or hard water so whatever that is that's what we have here and it's yeah so what it means is I get lime scale growing or kind of around the taps and in the toilet it's really hard to get rid of it because it's just it's in the water so the toilet's always got water in it

and it's just like well the lime scale is just constantly building up and I don't want to kind of keep flushing the toilet for no reason you know I suppose if I flush the toilet every few hours or every couple of hours it may be stop the water from being stagnant and growing the lime scale I don't know so hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to empty the bath and it will be and shower it down and maybe then be able to give it a bit of a wipe over with a

sponge and stuff and perhaps it will be come up okay I don't know the sink I'm gonna have to empty the sink before I go to bed because I have to brush my teeth well also I might need to wash my hands as well in there but I can use the kitchen if I need to which brings me to the to the kitchen I'm gonna have to give the kitchen a good tidy up it's not a lot actually it's not a lot of tidying to be done but there is cleaning

you need to clean the counter and the sink and stuff which in reality isn't gonna take too long because it's not a particularly big kitchen but it still needs to sort of give it a mop and that so you know I've got to do all that and I was thinking because apparently we can choose our own design for the kitchen and at the moment when I moved in I bought myself a new fridge a small fridge with a little freezer compartment because that's all I kind of felt I needed and

it was underneath the counter and I wasn't allowed to remove any stuff because there was no gap for a fridge freezer like you know a tall one and the council person at the time said after you've been here a year a year you can contact us and get permission to remove that part of the counter so you can put a fridge freezer in two or one I said oh thank you and I said in that case I'll see you in a year she said why are you saying yeah and I

said I said I'll see you in a year she said why are you saying yeah I said because you said that I couldn't have it done in a year she said I didn't say yeah I said yeah it was like okay and then my dad said stop this please just stop it not every conversation has to be turned into something ridiculous for your podcast and I said well dad come on gotta get something out of these pointless conversations and the council lady said what what you mean what you mean pointless

not pointless so anyway she she she actually floated away it was quite weird but I never got around to doing anything you know to sort of change in the kitchen so I ended up with my own fridge freezer underneath the counter and then my dad gave me a fridge like he gave me a freezer a very very old freezer which is now ancient probably the oldest freezer in the world it's a little a little one so I put the fridge on top of the counter and his freezer underneath and again

I didn't enjoy all the bending over to get stuff out so what I did is I got myself a what do you call it that you know the freezers with the lid with a lid freezer with lid rather than a door oh oh I know that there was a name they used to have names didn't they I mean like George or Steve I mean they had names not storage I think the capital was a C I don't know but anyway it's got a lid and that's near the door it's also

near the radiator which is why I turned the radiator off because I didn't think it was a good idea to have the radiator on next to an electrical appliance so I turned the radiator off in the kitchen I haven't had it on for years and I like this no it still doesn't come it's not coming to me the name of it the freezer storage freezer I guess all freezers have a storage and they um not desktop floppy flop flop no chest chest freezer chest I'm sure chest is it free chest

freezer something like that anyway you open the lid up and the stuff's like all in one space now technically you could say well yes bending over as well but it's a different kind of bending over so I haven't got a crouch down to look for stuff I can see where everything is and then I just I can just grab it and I just find it easier and I've had that chest freezer I'm sure it's chest freezer that's what you call it but it's a small one it's not a big one

so I thought oh it'd be a good investment and I'm actually pleased with it because it's done its job and that's much easier for me to find stuff in there so that's the one I predominantly use it's basically if I go into the kitchen on the right hand side that's the the chest freezer but I was thinking because my neighbor said to me because she said where you can you can get your oh yeah if if you you can plan your own kitchen design or you know choose a kitchen design

so this time I can just have one where there's a gap for the fridge freezer a big long tall fridge freezer and I said you know some ways are quite like a fridge you know just a big big fridge and have because I've got a freezer and she said why don't you put your freezer into the storage cupboard like I do and I said I can't she said why not I said because there's no there's no sockets in the storage room there's no plugs but as I was walking back from

the bathroom you know about 20 minutes ago I thought to myself I just had a little memory of not just uncle sausages but all the different people have had stuff done here they have certain days where the electrician comes and does stuff and I thought if I speak to the electrician and say to them is there any way you can put a plug like into the wall or whatever in the storage room because that's where the the meter is and everything it should be quite easy I imagine and I said

if they could do that I'd like chuck them you know £2.50 or whatever to make it worth their while and they might say yes which would be pretty good and then what I could do is move my storage here or actually what I could do even better is get a larger storage a larger chest freezer and then sort of double the size of the one I got or just put the one I got in there for now and then use that have it in you know so it's not in the

kitchen which will create more space I mean what I would like which would be really groovy is yeah I'd like space I'd like to have I mean storage would be nice a few more cupboards but I think that is limited to what they can give you you know but there's like empty walls with nothing be nice to have some couple cupboards you know but then it's not a very big kitchen so there's there's space limitation my friend over the road she's got a big kitchen compared to mine double my size

and it makes a difference literally you can just walk through I have to maneuver through I have to walk around the freezer to get to the you know it's like there's not you can do I'm not saying you could do a full ballet in her bar in her kitchen but you could do a little bit of tap dancing again you know there's not a huge amount of room and you won't be able to sell tickets because there's no room for the audience but mine there's no room to even think about

it you wouldn't even have enough room to plan a ballet never mind do one so it would be quite nice if I could get the counters because at the moment one count is pretty much taken up by the boiler the boiler is just above the counter so that's half of that counter which is on the right hand side of the um the sink and the draining board and then the other part is right next to the you know and that's there's nothing there there's like there's almost nothing to do you

know I mean it's just it's like space that I can't really use and then next to that is next to draw the the sink is some space some counter space but then the cupboards above it so literally it's can't even really stand there there's only one little space I can really stand that where I'm not kissing the cupboard I mean you could argue well you don't have to kiss the cupboard just because it's near you but it's just it's such a cute cupboard it's always teasing me now it's it was

just the way it creaks when it opens hey Jason what are you cooking what's what are you cooking good looking doesn't say that there's a cupboard can't speak and what basically basically I think my idea of how good it would be would be to have more more counter space on the other side of the wall especially if I was able to get the chest freezer into the storage room and then I could I just got this idea about making cakes I don't even know why I don't know why I don't

I've never known why I just I think because I enjoy eating them and I know I really shouldn't eat them because they're not the best thing for my health but I love cakes and the idea of making some cakes I mean it doesn't turn me on but it does definitely get me horny or just it's more the idea of eating cakes but then it's the smell isn't it the smell of the cakes as they start to cook and rise and oh just smells so good whether it's bread rolls it doesn't

matter bacon you bake something it just smells good for some reason I mean I'm not even really into coconut stuff but I like the smell of it I do I do I do so yeah I'm just thinking about that they'll also put a new floor in as well so I think yeah I kind of like the idea of minimalism in a sense of or having a counter that I can let down by that I don't mean disappoint I mean like so it's kind of against the wall and it can come

down to make more space but be out of the way when I don't need it let's say like a mistress that's wrong isn't it so it's I don't know I see what's available I mean I'm not going to be able to be super fussy because I mentioned that it's limited to what I can it might just be the same I don't know whatever choice of the color of the of the counters or the color of the of the cupboards the kind of knobs on the cupboards and drawers I don't know

maybe I don't know but what I'm going to do is well I want to get involved and also I want to see if they can make it sealed so there's no holes for anything to get in so it can so it's like really secure the the kitchen because at the moment there we had we had a vermin issue a few years back and there's so many gaps and stuff so I want to see if they if they're willing and I'll pay I'll give them an extra 25 pence and a bag

of peanuts if they'll kind of seal any any gaps just to make sure it's just yeah completely well how it should be really I would say but then there's a cupboard underneath the sink there's a cupboard to the left of the sink which is a big cupboard but I can't get to it because it's right underneath it's like a pointless cupboard what would be much better I would think is if they had the sink going all the way to the end like the the thing have a cabinet onto the other

wall and then hmm I don't know redesign it anyway the way it's designed I mean technically it's it's ideal in its own way it's like it's situated fine and it's it serves its purpose but it'd be lovely to have a new kitchen I mean I've never had a new kitchen before the closest thing to a new kitchen is when I last time I got a new kitchen that wasn't mine it was my dad my dad put a new kitchen in when we had a family home and it's quite good actually

because I was taken out of school to go with my step-mom and my little brother up to Kent to stay with her brother who was my uncle for about a week maybe a little bit longer but it was at least a week and it's just before the summer holidays as well I think and it was brilliant when we went up there I had the best time and my two older brothers stayed at home helping my dad put in a new kitchen I think I won the lottery on that one it

was great it was honestly it was although I was a little bit disappointed not not to have to go away but I didn't even know I was going away literally I was at school and we were just starting these I don't know what it was but we were starting these things these courses where I chose to do a cake icing course and it was going to last for a week or two maybe a week and my friend was doing it and I was going to do it with him and I

was looking forward to it because a week without doing normal lessons and I like cakes and I was interested in learning how to decorate a cake so I was really looking forward to doing that and then I was called to the office can Mr. Jason Newland come to the office please Mr.

Jason Newland to the office please put down the icing the icing bag and come to the office please so I go to the office and it was my what's her name my stepmom she had my bag packed and everything it's like literally he was in she said I've got the car packed little brother was in the car or as it was her probably with her and we're going so this might not be true we might have gone home and got packed but my memory is she was ready and she said

yeah we're going to your uncle's in Kent and she said yeah we're going to go there for a week why and they said oh because your dad's going to put a new kitchen in I mean I must have been a bit oblivious because it's like I didn't even know that was happening but I must have known because I'm pretty sure the kitchen bits and bobs would have been all over the house and the kitchen probably would have been taken apart or dismantled weeks before so it I don't quite know what

happened but I was happy because I was I mean I did feel a little bit sad because the cake decorating because there was there was a girl in the court in the classroom that I loved and I was hoping to maybe marry her you know I felt well she's never really acknowledged my existence before but maybe once she sees me with a an icing bag in my hand squirted ice icing all over a cake a little cherry on top um picking my nose seductively something like that and she'd fall in

love and we'd get married and yeah but it didn't happen because you know I had to go to my uncle's but it was good because that week I watched two movies that were two of the funniest movies I'd ever seen at that point and it was the Life of Brian and Airplane the movie the first one I might watch the second one as well I can't remember but I watched the first one and Life of Brian on the same day and they had me laughing so much and I'd hang over

as well we'd been out the night before in a restaurant and I'd have a bit too much red wine I think even though I shouldn't really have been drinking should I I was only 14 but it's brilliant and uh not that bit but the laughing was good because I like to laugh I'll put that on my dating profile yeah I like to I love to laugh I'm a real foodie person I like to eat or I like to poo I mean it's like it's just one of those it's like natural

things that we have to eat laughter is just a spontaneous thing but I love it I love laughing we doesn't everyone I don't know is there someone out there that really gets angry so disappointed myself can't believe I allowed myself to laugh in public I have to chastise myself severely I laughed I had no intention of laughing I just I was going to sit through all the comedians in the comedy club with a straight face but nope I was caught off guard by a willy joke so I just I'd I

just figured everyone likes laughing I love to laugh when people say well I'm a foodie I guess I don't feel never really understood well I understand what it means in the sense of um I mean some people just really into certain things and they so I'm not mocking it I'm just like I most people well not but a lot of people enjoy eating don't they for me it's eating is a chore in a sense of I gotta cook now and I gotta get the food ready and it's just eeks I

have to I don't I'm not like planning what I'm going to be eating in three days time buying the ingredients like oh can't wait to to wake up Wednesday so I can spend five hours preparing and cooking this meal that's going to take me what 12 minutes to eat is it what what why why especially as it would just be for me yeah I made a hypnosis recording this morning blimey you wouldn't even believe it you would not believe it so it was called about this you know this is number

Let Me Bore You To Sleep number 1599 nearly 1600 recordings can you believe that that's a lot isn't it anyway flappy is is trying to get my attention so I've got close to the desk so he can't stare at me through my legs it will try he's trying to get to the right hand side of me and now he's going to move yeah move to the right hand side of me and he's going to stare at me I think so this morning because I was up to like um because I

did Let Me Bore You To Sleep yesterday and I ended up talking for three hours and by the time I'd edited it which took ages it was down to two hours 35 minutes which is pretty long for Let Me Bore You To Sleep even for me um I rarely do any under an hour but I don't normally do them that long but then on Saturday I did the Q&A Friday it's a day late but that was two hours and 59 minutes long it's like what's going on so I basically I

did the recording edited it and I just wanted to have it uploaded and before I went to bed and I thought I can get it done by 12 but it wasn't until about eight minutes past one in the morning that I'd finished I was so pleased to go to bed just like oh I'm so tired and then I got up this morning and I thought I'm going to do a hypnosis recording so I did a deep sleep whisper hypnosis called the vanishing thread and I was talking or whispering for probably

an hour and a half and after editing it I had 51 minutes and six seconds because I kept falling asleep whilst I was recording it kept falling asleep and at one point I actually my head knocked the microphone off the table so it was yeah I just kept like this I was snoring away so when it came to editing that it took even longer than yesterday's recording because of getting all the snoring out because usually if I make a if I mess up with I say something or I don't want

a specific part included in the podcast episode I've got a little I bang on the microphone a little bit make some sound so as a marker I didn't have that with this one because I was snoring both loud and quietly so it was a bit yeah it took a while but you know what I was pleased that I did it it's like the ideal day the ideal day you know regarding being at home is if I can make one hypnosis recording and one Let Me Bore You To Sleep edit them

of course then upload them make the images share them onto Facebook and you know the whole process for the average Let Me Bore You To Sleep probably three hours so it's an hour and a half recording then maybe an hour and a half with all the editing and uploading and stuff maybe longer sometimes so yeah it was quite cool it's it's just nice to have it to have it completed especially with this the hypnosis one the deep sleep whisper hypnosis because I want to listen to that myself maybe not today

but maybe tomorrow maybe not tomorrow one day one day and it feels quite nice to know that I've done that and there's no there's no time limit on it in a sense of or you know you need to listen to it this year it's not going to be valid next year it won't make any difference I mean most of my recordings pretty much you can listen to them whenever for as long as you want because they're not I don't know they're not tied to something that's going on now I mean

the Let Me Bore You To Sleep is tied to me and how my life is going on now you know day to day so if um I don't know if I if I went which is a little dream of mine if I went on a cruise then that cruise would be part of the recording it'd be a big part of the recording as would be the coach journey to the ferry and the preparing the looking forward to going on the cruise finding somewhere for Vinnie to stay while I went on

the cruise or the build up to you know a generous list a generous listener treating me to the cruise you know all package everything included wow thank you you know just the whole thing would be part of the Let Me Bore You To Sleep but it's not it can be listened to in 20 years time and I suppose in some ways it'll be I suppose historic in some ways you know because I'll be talking about stuff that possibly doesn't even exist anymore so if anyone for whatever reason why would they

be but if someone was listening to my canon my canon of recordings in 50 years time where I will be how old would I be in 50 years time I'll be 105 so yeah I suppose I'll I suppose by that time I'll be classed as being you know relatively old but the yeah it'd be historic wouldn't it because I'll be talking about or I'm at my laptop or using my iPad and you know waiting for a taxi or I was watching TV or I was streaming on Netflix and Netflix hasn't

been around for 40 let's say 40 years for whatever reason and streaming's gone it was replaced with something else Amazon now they focused on holidays on the moon you know I mean so those things have changed so in 50 years time a lot of these references will just be perhaps it'll be appreciated by people who are in their 60s or 70s because they'll remember it because they were in their 20s you know at the time I don't know they're like a bit nostalgic a bit nostalgic Vinnie's trying to get my

attention see just staring at me wasn't enough he's now pouring at my leg and you've got your little tail waggling as well what do you want Vin Vin what is it you want what do you want baby boy what do you want baby boy what do you want baby you what do you want what do you want baby baby baby baby baby baby baby I don't know what he wants I think he he wants some type of stimulation because I can I get a sense he's a little bit bored I

guess a little bit bored sometimes um he's even I think he's got bored of his ball now because I ended up carrying it myself today when we were out so he picked it up went out he dropped it at the front door as we left so basically the front outside the communal door he just left it on the pavement as we left he didn't he didn't want to carry it and I managed to get him to carry it he still kept dropping it and now he's literally about an inch away

from my face what is it Vinnie he wants to give me a lick you want to lick me okay what you after what you after I don't know if I think do dogs they learn if they give kisses then it means they get their own way his tail is going like a frenzy but I don't know what it is he wants what does he want baby sometimes he'll let me know by looking so if he wants food he'll keep looking back at the plate but he has food on the plate

so that's not what he wants I don't think I mean he always wants a t-r-e-e-e-e-e-e-t always oh his nanny treats he saw oh just said the word his nanny nanny treats he saw her today early the first time he went out for a walk and Vinnie had the ball and he seemed quite happy to have it and he didn't give her much attention because he had his ball and I think she got a little bit upset because normally he's all over her and he's just so excited to see her he

was excited to see her but he didn't give her the the full he it's almost like he didn't want to he thought that she was going to try and steal his ball and nanny treats would never steal your ball so next time you see because she I think she actually she did say oh it doesn't love me anymore I just wanted to say to her he never did no I don't want to say to him of course he loves he does he actually adores her Vinnie adores that lady and I

think the fact that he he's so comfortable he's around her is a clue that he adores her because yeah it get excited but he he was trying to go back to her house but she was going a different way so I think she thought he was ignoring her when actually he wasn't he was leading the way back to her house so that he could have a run around in the garden and run up into the stairs into the bedroom or wherever he goes and run around and get treats because she

lets him do what he wants doesn't she he might even stay there for a little bit not not not live but I might because she did mention that she'd quite like to have him for a few hours so what I might do is let you stay in any treats maybe the afternoon one day and I'll leave you there and I can't pick you up and you can play with you in any treats and go sleep and they go bye-byes maybe or have a nap but you have to you have to

promise to be a good boy though yeah I think my only concern is because she's got stairs and I know Vinnie can be a little bit he'll follow me around sometimes and I don't imagine that he'll take his eyes off her he'll be at her side the whole time and if she's going if she needs to go for a poo or something I don't want him I don't want him to be running up the stairs at the same time as she is because she doesn't see him you know um so

other than that I think it'd be cool as long as she doesn't open the front door because he might run out he's he's definitely got his own definitely got your own mind didn't you with stuff like that he's so cute though with those out the eyes and his little eyebrows the way he just frowns all the time one ear sticking up the other one's like half cast half cast half mast sorry and he he's just staring at me looking so cute and now moving his head from side to side you're

very cute you are can't believe that I've had him nearly what's it three years and five months I've had him over that so it's nearly three and a half years I've had him that's a long time it doesn't feel I mean a lot has happened in that time but three and a half years what is it Finny Finny what is it baby what what do you want you want a treat is all you want a treat you want a treat yeah give me a paw if you want a treat paw

treat paw don't think you learned that trick paw okay if you want a treat ignore me there's a treat if you want a treat look at me from side oh so cute the way he looks from side to side I know some people say all dogs do that it's nothing special they all do the same thing don't take away my pleasure stop it do you want a treat do you want this do you want a treat a treat treat do you want a treat treat do you want a treat treat

he couldn't look cuter if he tried honestly you look so cute Vinnie you really do are you the cutest little monkey in the whole wide world are you are you the cutest little are you are you oh oh oh he's a lot more affectionate with me these days than he ever used to be I mean he visited his mum the other day he went I think it was yesterday he was around there and he was literally sitting on my lap when I was cuddling him and he was sitting on my

lap he would never have done that even six months ago he'd never get on my lap it's he'd sit to the side of me but he literally just jumped on my lap and kind of settled in and he tries to get onto my lap now when I'm at the table because the settee is so close to my to my chair at the table the desk and he literally can get onto my my onto my legs if he wants to and he does sometimes don't you it's like you become if he

started to like me a little bit maybe his his tolerance is risen he had a very low tolerance level with me when we first got together maybe as he's got older his tolerance level is just raised you know so he can put up with more am I not such a burden anymore I feel like if he could talk and say yeah you're not as bad as I thought you were I mean I reckon if we give this a go keep going one day it might even be pleasurable having you around

that's rude Finny saying stuff like that about me it's very very rude indeed anyway I did this hypnosis recording called the vanishing thread this is today deep sleep whisper hypnosis and but I also did one I did one a couple of days ago the 21st oh wow yesterday the quiet unravelling the quiet unravelling which is sleep hypnosis and I did one on the 20 to 20 21 22 wow so done in three days in a row yeah that's interesting and that was called quietly drifting beyond thought that was the 20th

and I don't want to blow me on horn if only it quite I thought it was quite good actually although yeah I look forward I've turned into my own best customer I actually look forward to new recordings now because I listen to my recordings every day every time I do a new recording I listen to it in the morning you know after I've had my breakfast maybe an hour after my breakfast I listen to one of my latest recordings and sometimes during the day or early evening I'll listen to a

hypnosis recording it all depends you know what's available but I genuinely I couldn't believe I mean when I was doing the hypnosis recording this morning I didn't even realize I was asleep I knew I was drifting off a little bit a little bit every now and then just a little bit but when I came to edit there was a lot it was honestly it was a lot of sleeping a lot of snoring a lot of grunting and all that stuff which in itself amused me slightly but you know I think

this it was nice to get it done to get it edited and get all that stuff out to make it I don't want to say decent recording but it's nearly an hour long I think it's a good recording but I've not listened to it so I plan to listen to that probably either tonight before I go to bed or maybe oh my goodness maybe tomorrow morning but I do like the idea of maybe making another one in the morning you know if I could get into the habit of making a

sleep hypnosis recording every morning when I get up even if it's only 20 minutes long or 40 minutes long you know it doesn't matter just because they're not necessarily supposed to be like really really long ones I think it would be quite good a quite useful habit to kind of form um yeah we'll see I would also like to do more of the older chronic pain release sessions but then I'd like to do everything and as I'm you know we all know that is an impossibility to do everything so I

just I feel like just try and stick at what I can do and leave things yeah just things will come as they come so I'm going to focus on the sleep because that's kind of what I'm known for so and part of the sleep is relaxation is anxiety reducing stress reduction all that stuff comes together with the recording whether it's let me boys asleep or sleep hypnosis recording so and maybe then look at other things but at the moment who knows who knows but I'm always open to doing something a

little bit new a little bit different but what I don't know I mean a lot of it is there's not enough hours in the day to do what I'd like to do you know I can't I'd like to do a you know chronic pain release session every day as well as the sleep hypnosis or the Let Me Bore You To Sleep recordings but even trying to do two a day is a it's a big task it was such a big task I had to go into a squeaky voice it's a

big task not a big task a big task but I also don't want to push myself so I'm doing something that I'm not enjoying so I still need to keep the the freshness fresh she's fresh and exciting she's so exciting to me okay stop with the singing I actually just drifted off then I did I started I just I don't know what I was thinking I don't know what I was talking about either oh man I did uh yeah it was this is a few weeks ago I did a hypnosis

recording I think it was it might be a Let Me Bore You To Sleep but I think it was a hypnosis recording early in the morning and I listened back to it and at some point I was just mumbling I was just like I was going from being completely clear you know so like hello I haven't seen you for years and then literally five seconds later I'm going and then I'm back again saying and then the salt and pepper popped pots fell on the fell on the floor and made my

toes itch and my dad said why is why is there pepper in my pants it's making me itch you know so I was talking normally and then literally within a few seconds I'd fallen asleep just like and then I was wide awake again doing that again it's just like weird and because I didn't know I was doing it I hadn't marked it on the audio like by clapping my hands or tapping on a microphone so I had to go through the whole thing I mean literally word by word to make

sure that everything was up to scratch I guess and then even then it's I don't know I mean I know perhaps people once they've fallen asleep they're not necessarily going to be listening or watching everything you do but see then I don't know what I just said then I literally was talking about drifting off and then I fell asleep whilst talking and I don't know if the sentence made sense because I got a feeling or I got a sense maybe that I was talking about goldfish and there'd be no reason

for me to talk about goldfish and maybe some of you would say yeah but this is just I didn't notice there was any difference it's just a bunch of nonsense like you normally come out with which is a bit rude I mean it there's a there's a degree of truth in it but like come on come on man what are you talking about what are you talking about so I have to look that up and see whether or not I just started talking I mean the weird thing about it is

I might forget but at least after saying whatever weird stuff I might have said I was then explaining myself saying weird stuff so yeah I'm drifting off a lot right now just it's almost I mean I'm not I'm not doing a hypnosis session but I guess I'm a bit tired and yeah I don't have um I don't know it's like a run out of words or something I do feel quite peaceful actually yeah just sitting here sometimes it is nice to just take a step back because I think with making

podcasts especially the Let Me Bore You To Sleep ones they're I feel that I need to kind of keep them keep some kind of momentum going um it's nice just to just to relax it's pretty quiet as well right now I would say I'm only about 50 percent conscious and it would take only a few seconds for me to be um maybe not fully asleep but drifting I'm in that kind of mid midway area between being asleep and just being up awake but tired or not not really being bothered either

way just accepting yourself for who you are and if falling asleep is what happens naturally then so be it I just sat back in my chair and maybe jump not like like proper jump like oh but just oh brought me back to the moment and in a way this is very much like a meditation but without I don't know well without other people being around although you're here with me I mean we're listening I know you're not it's for me in some ways it does I don't know if it feels

like that to you that I'm talking to you do you know I mean like directly to you so when I'm talking about relaxing being calm peaceful being excited about stuff maybe it's all part of I guess the my human experience I suppose and what was it that made you feel that way and what was it that made you feel that way we're all different aren't we for example I don't know why I said we're all like that instead of just saying we're all different so I said we're all different we're

all different and I didn't even mean to I had no intention of putting on a funny voice then it just happened on its own it's peaceful actually I mean if you're listening without music I mean I can hear a little bit of activity in the building just a little bit but here's a weird thing well I don't know if it's weird but when I'm sitting down with my eyes closed maybe meditating or a version of meditating I yeah I like to hear background sounds I don't turn the washing machine on

or anything like that just to make noise put a fan on or invite my friend's monkey to come around and play the drums I don't I don't do anything like that give Vinnie a toy that rattles I don't it's not that I'm kind of encouraging noise or sound but there's something comforting about hearing the neighbors downstairs or maybe hearing a dog barking in a distance but not too loudly of course or hearing the wind or the birds or hearing Vinnie snoring which he is right now but there's a real sense

of peacefulness right now yeah maybe it's because I live on my own and it's quite nice just to know that there's other people about it might be that but then I feel the same way if I was sitting on a bus or a train or sitting in a park and I was just sitting there with my eyes closed and I was hearing other people talking or the doors to the train closing and the bus or the train conductor blowing their whistle it amazes me that they still have a whistle in

this year 2026 nothing seems to replace the whistle yeah I mean I'm saying that nothing I mean obviously there's other he has horns isn't there yeah that's my impression of a horn what is is it fog horn the air horn very loud I guess that wouldn't be ideal for anyone would it listen to one of them go off I have been thinking about perhaps going or returning back to the Buddhist center because I don't know I mean there's one thing about meditations nice and everything um but I quite like meditating

with other people and it's it could be nice to meet new people sometimes I used to enjoy giving the biscuits out you know during the tea break would you like a biscuit would you like a biscuit that's what I do sometimes I just just say the same sentence because I realized that it didn't really need I suppose I could have been more method put on different accents and maybe acted as if I was you know auditioning for a movie hey you want a biscuit hey have a biscuit man have a

biscuit it's got chocolate on it but I never really thought about that before the birds are still singing and it's 8 31 in the evening the birds are still there well I mean they cannot they live there don't they but I haven't gone to bed yet apparently I don't know if I told you about this there's um a couple of kites locally they're birds of prey that we've flying around and apparently there's a little baby one now yeah I like kites how did I tell you this is true story it's

about 25 years ago my dad's got this really lovely garden he's it's a quite big garden and he's him and his wife have put a lot of effort into it to make it nice and he was he's got like a bird table and like a bath you know bird bath and all that stuff and he was sort of complaining saying oh the them seagulls keep coming and stealing the food it's not for them it's for the wrens or I'm going to change it say it's for the blue tits because I'm

being cheeky oh blue and he was complaining because maybe it was the pigeons but so the pigeons keep eating the food and it's not it's for the the great tits that's even better isn't it the great tits and I thought he'd like been distracted you're going to finish your sentence dad he was reading the newspaper but it wasn't page three so I realized it wasn't he was actually talking about the birds he said the gray tits is a bird you're telling me there's a bird called great tits he said yeah

but it's gray tits as in blue tits gray tits not great tits I said you just said it's great tits he said it is great tits I said this is like talking about yarr again he said are you talking about yarr what's that mean I said exactly you know people on tv saying oh I'll see you next yarr when it should be year as in ear and he said yeah it is year as in ear I don't know why we had that conversation or why I mentioned it oh yeah yes

I've got to remember now so my dad was moaning but it was just like saying oh those bloody pigeons because he's allowed to sweat at the table I'm not and he said oh those bloody pigeons they keep eating the food that's there for the great tits they didn't say it like that but in my mind he did because it made it a bit rude and childish to be fair I mean I nearly said thanks dad but you know stop looking at them it's weird I used to laugh when people talked

about like man boobs and stuff I don't find it funny anymore in fact I used to think you know what I'd probably enjoy having man boobs because of my enjoyment of just you know just basically I thought well if I had my own I wouldn't need to leave the house and that is part of right part of the reason why I don't need the house because I'm so fat I can't get through the door I just remember the first time it was I think it was 2000 and I was running

towards the petrol station to get a cake with a manager for the comedy club and just getting a cake birthday cake for someone and I remember like thinking wow she said what were you checking out my bum I said no she said why not I said what she said why are you saying wow I said I don't even want to say it out loud because it sounds so ridiculous she said okay just say it anyway we're used to it I said used to what she said used to ridiculous things coming

out of your mouth which I thought was a little bit rude but I said okay well I'll tell you basically I've experienced something for the very very very first time and she said what respect from another person I said wow no why would you say that she said it was just a guess I said no um can I have another guess and I said no you can't have another guess I'll just tell you and I said what I said well basically for the very very very first time as we were

running to the petrol station to collect the cake for a customer's birthday party no I can't even say it she said come on you built it up so much I'm going to be disappointed whatever whatever you say is going to be disappointing and I said okay a bit rude she said you're rude I said wow and we both said the next sentence we both said at the same time we haven't said that for ages have we you're rude no you're rude I used to say that a lot back in the

day when I was a younger girl when I was much younger doing these new podcasts I remember the first one hello welcome to Let Me Bore You To Sleep my name's Jason yeah I don't know what I'm going to talk about but I'll do my bestest now go to sleep and she said okay well what is it you noticed and I said for the first time as I was running towards the petrol station my belly wobbled she found it hilarious and I wasn't joking my welly my welly my belly had

never wobbled before ever in my entire life until that point which is probably I don't know probably March 2000 my belly wobbled maybe April 2000 because I'd always been slim very very very very slim most of the time I forget what I was talking about now but I oh yeah wobbling tummies so my dad he was moaning about the seagulls eating the food that he left out for the great tits and I thought maybe I can help I was wrong but enough it was worth a try I said to him

well you could look at this from a point instead instead of looking at from a defeatist attitude of what the problem is maybe we can come up with a solution together how my dad looked at me hopefully he really like with I don't know about confidence but intrigue I would say he had a look of intrigue on his mind and he yeah he said to me go on then what's your idea I said well hear me out don't judge me before I finished he said come on I haven't got all

yarr I said what I haven't got all yarr to listen to you this is annoying me now everyone's now saying it and I said listen here's the solution I'm not 100% sure but I'm pretty sure all you got to do is stick a sign up just stick a sign up for the birds to say um for the seagulls don't eat this food it's not for you it's for the great tits and my dad didn't budge not a smile nothing now the delivery was much better then than what it was just

now it was like a quick zap why don't you stick a sign up boom boom he was like yeah like yeah good I was very pleased with myself very very pleased with myself I still kind of I'm a little bit proud for that moment I don't know if it was the speed for which the the idea came out or I mean I just found it funny like personally I found it like a funny line why don't you stick a sign out because it works on the level of it's the ridiculousness

of it and seagulls don't even speak English we all know they're French so what would be the point in putting an English sign out I mean they can speak English but they just refuse to read it don't they that's what I keep hearing honestly all my life oh the French can speak English they just refuse to where's that in France well French is their language is it not yeah so what's the problem they're in their own country they're speaking their own language how can you complain about that but I'm English

and when I go there they should speak English so you're telling me that France and let's say Paris especially which is probably one of the most visited cities in the world from people all around the world that every citizen in Paris or in France as a whole should be able to speak every single possible language of the world just in case someone walks up to them from Egypt or from Ghana or from Belgium or from Scotland or Wales or whatever Neptune they should know all the languages is that is that

is that what you're saying is it is it is it and he said no just English oh so no one else matters is that what you're saying he said no I just said just English I didn't say anything about no one else mattering I just think that everyone in every country should speak English yeah but that's not it's not logical is it it's not logical it is no it is I mean yeah be nice ideally if everybody in the world all spoke the same language it would I'm guessing generally it

would be potentially written I'm trying not written but maybe sign language something like that that everyone can because that makes sense why don't we all in schools why don't why not teach the children international sign language so that wherever you go in the world you're able to communicate on a even if it's just a very basic level you can communicate and then build upon that so that wherever you are in the world there's a communication going on I mean that that makes my footage with happiness wouldn't be nice yeah I

don't know maybe I'm still thinking about whether or not I should attempt to write a book because I know it's like it's an old cliche isn't it everybody's got a book in them and I don't know because I'd kind of like to write the way I talk but then it's very unfollowable it might not be the easiest thing to follow and which in a sense if it's a diary a journal or something like that as opposed to you know fiction I mean there's a you know there's a an old theory

isn't it like with writing stick to what you know but I don't know if the things that I know are going to be readable or whether or not but actually I do also think that I might make quite a good graphic book so because of the boring lifestyle I lead and so that you can see from the cartoons what I'm thinking yeah I don't know I don't know I don't normally go off I mean I don't I don't have a script when I do these recordings but I feel like I've

gone off on a almost a tangent within a tangent within a tangent and just stepped out of the tangent and just settled in to here now not trying to anything really I was going to say very interesting but it wasn't was it no I mean how could I turn my podcasts into a book other than if I did it in some kind of readable diary that's kind of that's a question I've got and I don't have the answer genuinely I'm not sure I'm not sure I have thought about doing a

romance novel but just doing it from my perspective and what I'm thinking but then I thought if I do that because I'm going to end up saying some rude things in the book am I going to get judged because I have I'll probably say I've got a fairly adult sense of humor at times but I also like absurdity I like a bit of everything really my chin was just itching I thought I had a fly on there that's why it's just a mole get back in the garden so I don't

know I thought because I did this short story many many years ago and I don't have it I wish I did and it wasn't written down it was just me ad-libbing the story and I think it lasted for about 50 minutes and I have no idea I can't even remember what it was but a few people said it was very funny and I thought perhaps I could develop that into a book or that kind of style into a book but that was kind of oh yeah it was a long time

ago actually that would probably be about 2012 2013 yeah in fact it might just be in a video on YouTube where I just talked and uploaded it no edited just no hmm I forgot to do the lottery today oh damn me damn me damn it's a triple rollover and I think it was like eight million is it Wednesday isn't it oh I've seen no just thinking if I did the lottery every time it was on because on a Wednesday and a Saturday that's like four that's two pound a line and

then a Friday night is the euro is that four pound a line for the euro or is that also two pound or is it two pound fifty I think it might be two pound fifty and I was thinking if I won the lottery because I didn't know I thought you just got the money you know if you win you win a million they give you a million pound but apparently that's not the case they offer you to have it over a certain amount of time for example um 10 grand a

month for 30 years 10 grand a month 30 years how much is that 120 grand off for 10 years maybe yeah there's something like that it's a 10 grand a month for 10 years as an example or you could get yes you won a million or you could take cash 600 000 now that's just cheating isn't it if you're going to offer a prize of a million or five million or ten it doesn't matter if you're offering that prize then that needs to be the amount you give don't start by

saying well we can't give it to you all in one go why you you don't do that when people pay you for a ticket oh we can't take all your money for that ticket the ticket's two pound we can only take 25 pence so uh we're not going to be able to we can take 25 pence a week for was that eight weeks and then we can you can have your ticket on the eighth week to to be you know in the the running to potentially win something no one would

oh yeah brilliant you wouldn't would you wouldn't do it so i've got to wait eight weeks in order for my ticket to even be active no so i do that when they pay their money out 10 grand a month or you can take 450 000 pound now but i won a million i won a million i want it and i want it now i want it in a briefcase or a satchel like in a movie and i want i brought my own handcuffs why have you brought handcuffs son why have

you brought handcuffs with you oh they were already on my wrists and i was so excited i just you know i broke away from the bed and just ran here oh i what would you choose though if you was given a chance of one point ten thousand a month or four hundred thousand and then nothing i mean it seems a little bit ungrateful for me to saying i don't want four hundred thousand because you know i probably would sort of say it well yeah be nice but where's the rest of

the money that they've you know it's a win isn't it what it seems a bit cheeky a little bit cheeky actually i think a similar thing like that i'm sure there was a court case about it someone won like 120 million in america and they were offered to take sort of 50 million in cash or received the amount every month for the rest of their lives a certain amount like no we want the 120 million that we just won and i think it went to court and i don't know what

the result was because i'm pretty sure i made it up i could why didn't i just make up the end i keep getting a feeling that something's on my cheek maybe it's an ant honestly i'm feeling something on my this is weird i wonder what it is i've got something crawled out of my ear that's weird i know sometimes when vinny's been in the long grass he brings bits and bobs home with him on his on his coat but i really don't let him into the long grass for that reason

he's so cute he's gone to sleep but he's balanced just on the edge of the sofa like you know where you'd sit because there's stuff on the right hand side but he wanted to he wanted to be near me so instead of being on the other side where i normally sit he's like just fitted in to this small space so it could be right well i guess it's because he wants to be near where i am maybe he's just supervising me making sure that i do my job properly job i'm

gonna get some food in a minute so i have something to eat it's now nine o'clock so i'm gonna have something to eat and then watch a bit of tv maybe a bit of a movie or something possibly a YouTube video i think i'm gonna cook something so in the meantime of cooking i can edit this or start to edit it and then i'll get it all uploaded before i go to bed so i'll probably go to bed about 12 i'd say 11 12 and then tomorrow what is it today

it's wednesday today so it's Q&A Friday again friday but unlike last week i don't think i've had one question but then i only posted it today so i can't really moan but it'd be nice to have if i can get some questions questions yeah it's uh so it's in very weird green coloring any questions for this week's Q&A Friday 24th of april 2026 so i'll post that on there but ain't nothing i've not had a yet but it'd be lovely be very groovy if i can get some i'd just be

so pleased ever so pleased ever so ever so ever so pleased i'd say it's weird right i'm with the i'm with an optician's and i'm looking to get another appointment couldn't remember my password so i gave the email address and it said if you have an account with us you'll receive an email haven't received an email yet i've received numerous emails from that branch with spec savers so just say it is with spec savers i've received loads of messages and i've only ever used i'm pretty sure spec savers is the

only one i've used in the last like 20 years or at least no the last 17 years i think before that i used it might not be in the spec savers but definitely since then since i've moved here been in this little part of the world i've used spec savers and i've had the same email address for ever and ever and ever i'm born with it in fact don't you now i've had it for years so i'm gonna go vinny have you got anything to say before we go okay blimey

um no need for that was it really never mind well thanks for your contribution so i'm gonna go thank you for listening and remember to be kind to yourself because you do deserve to be happy and be gentle with yourself you deserve to feel safe lots of love bye
