00:00:00
Hi guys. The following podcast was

00:00:01
recorded in lockdown. So you know, just forgive a bit

00:00:05
of the sound. It might be a bit crap in

00:00:07
places, but it is what it is. We did our best.

00:00:10
So enjoy great. Like maybe I can ask for

00:00:13
directions and they just kind of went past us.

00:00:16
Really fast, span came back, they had AK-47 rifles and just

00:00:21
start putting them on us and shouting us.

00:00:25
And I was like, oh my God, like I have no idea what to do here

00:00:28
when we fucked. This podcast talks openly about

00:00:34
mental health, sex relationships, and various other

00:00:36
personal subjects that some people may find triggering.

00:00:39
Now, I know what you're thinking, so I'm just going to

00:00:41
explain a little bit. Why do you mr.

00:00:43
Nick, a thief. So, basically, long story short,

00:00:46
when I was in year 5, I went to him with my class and a guy came

00:00:50
in the changing room and stole everybody's knickers.

00:00:53
So I did what any responsible ten-year-old girl would do.

00:00:56
And I wrote a letter addressed to said, local pedo printed it

00:01:00
off. Off and handed it out around my

00:01:02
class. It contained some comedy gold.

00:01:04
If I do say so, myself poetic almost.

00:01:08
Yeah, not only did little Sophie right, the local paedophile.

00:01:12
She also wrote to herself every day in her diary and when we

00:01:15
found it we like this is hilarious.

00:01:17
People have to hear this though. Your we are.

00:01:21
Hi guys and welcome back to another episode of dear mr.

00:01:24
Nick a thief. You've got me.

00:01:26

00:02:44

00:02:47

00:02:50
to July the 8th 2009. My first girls holiday, we woke

00:03:00
up and went down on the bus to the market, we're staying in

00:03:03
bed, all mdina, by the way in Spain.

00:03:05
Okay, first girls, holiday 18 year olds a guy shot without

00:03:09
lovely. Jubbly to my friend who has

00:03:11
because she had big breasts and asked how much she was to have

00:03:14
sex with. We went down to the beach and we

00:03:18
went in the sea we sunbathe and then had dinner in a Seaside.

00:03:21
Hey, we went along the front and bought a rubber ring.

00:03:26
We went to benalmadena, but you did know.

00:03:30
You genuinely we bought rubber ring.

00:03:32
If you're not heard this, we went down to the market.

00:03:34
Johanna, we went to a seafront cafe, all right, everything your

00:03:37
old old. So I thought that was code for

00:03:39
something from the casa, a genuine.

00:03:45
Okay, this is me. We're talking about, we went to

00:03:48
benalmadena park with the five-person bike.

00:03:51
Was broke. The five-person bike.

00:03:53
What is II have? I have no idea what that means.

00:03:56
You all going around on one bike.

00:03:59
Maybe it's like a tandem bike. But with like 10, no, wait, five

00:04:03
seats like a rickshaw. That's right.

00:04:06
I mean, you know, what is it, you know, when you're on a night

00:04:08
out in London, then you come out of the glove and your leather

00:04:10
did the somebody out on a rickshaw like, yeah, on my bike.

00:04:13
I'll take you over to go and if that have like blankets on the

00:04:17
back and disco lights and like a, like a little canopy like a

00:04:20
tick, I took took yeah. Yes.

00:04:24
What's a rickshaw? Hey Tommy.

00:04:31
I don't even know if that is a word anyway.

00:04:32
It was broken. All right?

00:04:35
And then we saw some tiny turtles and some very greedy

00:04:38
fish. Let me win.

00:04:41
Then we went shopping in the super-soul.

00:04:43
We arrived back and went swimming in the pool and played

00:04:45
pool Olympics, where we did see all roles, Dives knife, Fork and

00:04:50
Spoon, And this I've no idea. And this is a little bit

00:04:53
alarming, hear me. And my friend shift, our armpits

00:04:56
at the poolside. Now, I just want to say, I've

00:04:58
never did You mean what do you mean?

00:05:11
I would never do that. The diary doesn't lie.

00:05:18
Thank God. The police.

00:05:21
I mean, did they grow that fast that?

00:05:23
I felt like, I had to take my Razor down to the pool and the

00:05:28
5:00 shadow by 11 a.m. I mean, I don't know.

00:05:31
I hope you. This is why we can't have nice

00:05:33
holidays. This is why you don't go on

00:05:35
holiday with me. I'm gonna shave my armpits by

00:05:37
the pool. When I've been on holiday with

00:05:39
you, Johanna, I know I've never, you know, should call you out on

00:05:41
it. Shaving your pubes shaving, your

00:05:46
legs shaving everything imagine something.

00:05:50
My mom would do I have absolutely no idea what that

00:05:54
was. The only thing I can imagine is

00:05:55
that we went straight from shopping and got straight into

00:05:59
the pool. I must've had some raises and

00:06:01
then I'm just gonna do my armpits quickly while so I have

00:06:03
no idea. I, I, I mean, I do we didn't

00:06:07
like, do the whole like shaving form and tap it in the pool.

00:06:09
You know, like what? Yeah, but you tap it on the side

00:06:12
we didn't do any of that. We'd probably just clicked,

00:06:15
right? Yeah, exactly.

00:06:16
Who few, I had asked that standard otherwise it would be

00:06:19
gross. We had to, we had tea, which was

00:06:28
chicken made by my friend. Charlotte.

00:06:31
We were down to Tivoli World on cable cars and there was an evil

00:06:35
pregnant. Rude, lady have no idea what

00:06:37
that means. After today, we decided to get

00:06:39
the cable cars up the mountain and do another sunset walk.

00:06:42
When we got to the base, we bumped into this guy, another

00:06:45
man and his two boys who said, who he said were his sons and we

00:06:49
thought nothing of it, they seem like a nice family.

00:06:52
Even brought one of us a nice pop just want to be just the one

00:06:55
you just, you one guy talked more than the other.

00:07:01
And he sounded like he was Dutch, we asked him to take our

00:07:03
picture and he was adamant that he wanted to be in the picture

00:07:06
with us. So we let him and one of these

00:07:09
his sons in the picture, and then the man grabbed my bottom.

00:07:14
What? Oh my God, he did it.

00:07:16
He did a Taylor Swift move. Yes, they put his arm around me

00:07:21
in a photo. Yeah, and then went down to my

00:07:23
bunker and squeezed it and our people, man.

00:07:26
I don't know. So anyway, we felt, we felt a

00:07:28
little bit uncomfortable, just a bit this point and because of

00:07:31
that 18, we grew up in a tiny little small town immediately.

00:07:35
We were like we're gonna sell us for sex taken, want to do.

00:07:39
Well, that's what I mean. Immediately was like taking my

00:07:41
dad was running through my head. My dad was always like the most,

00:07:43
like, be vigilant be vigilant. He sent me like a 10-page.

00:07:48
Like, like, how to look? Take care of yourself when you

00:07:50
go abroad, like I do. Yeah, I do.

00:07:53
See are literally of dads, Liam Neeson my basically my dad was

00:07:57
Liam Neeson. Um, anyway, so we immediately, I

00:08:01
mean, I had just been a nice a nice couple with their sons, you

00:08:04
know, enjoy. But but no immediately, we were

00:08:06
like, yep. That's what they want us for.

00:08:07
Somebody's already offered to buy by our other friend because

00:08:10
she's got nice boobies. So, this is what's happening.

00:08:12
So, anyway, we felt really uncomfortable after the grab.

00:08:14
So, we like it around for an hour or so.

00:08:16
Just, so they get head up. Start the head, start up the

00:08:19
mountain and we wouldn't bump into them.

00:08:22
So we set off but we bumped into another man.

00:08:25
He had a dog that had no tail. Sophia, are you sure this wasn't

00:08:28
a dream positive? I like even his even before we

00:08:31
did this podcast, I messaged my girlfriends and I was like, am I

00:08:34
missing anything from this story?

00:08:36
So, ya know, honestly what happened and he looked very odd.

00:08:40
He said, he very beautiful, very differently bees, so which we

00:08:45
immediately like more sex traffickers.

00:08:48
Anyway, he followed us up the mountain a bit, but eventually

00:08:51
we lost him. Thank goodness, we watch the sun

00:08:53
go down and made our way down a Pitch, Black Mountain, we went

00:08:56
the wrong way and it took us a lot longer to get back down.

00:09:00
We ended up in Germany weekend. It was so bad.

00:09:05
We were up and down there and maybe like three hours.

00:09:09
I mean, we did have a full-on photo shoot on the mountain but

00:09:11
yeah, I'll course naturally. Absolutely.

00:09:14
When we got back to the cable cars, the men and his sons were

00:09:18
waiting for us after 3 hours. Yeah, it was so dark and they I

00:09:22
must have been waiting nearly two hours for us because the

00:09:24
walk itself was only about an hour long.

00:09:26
We obviously took time to go up the mount in, we were up there

00:09:30
may be best in about 45 minutes and then took a long time for us

00:09:33
to come back down because we went the wrong way and it was

00:09:35
dark. So they must have been waiting

00:09:37
for nearly two hours for as the sun started shouting as an

00:09:40
immediately. We just panicked based on the

00:09:43
growth from earlier we'd already like gone.

00:09:46
Ya know, these guys know we don't want to we don't want to

00:09:48
speak to those people, a man groped.

00:09:50
You you have every right to assume There's an intended like

00:09:53
he's already crossed the line. You can fully assume these guys

00:09:56
are dodgy and the fact that they're hung around to wait, for

00:09:59
you. Yeah, yeah.

00:10:00
I said, yeah, there's a line between between not wanting to

00:10:03
offend people and then being a naive idiot that wanders in

00:10:07
being like, Oh, it's fine, this gang members.

00:10:09
Absolutely. It was a very strange.

00:10:14
Anyway, the sun started shouting is and we immediately panicked.

00:10:18
We dived into two cable cars and they ran and followed It behind

00:10:22
us and jumped in the one behind. We were shouting to our friends

00:10:26
in the front cable car to get a taxi as soon as they got to the

00:10:29
bottom. So I was hanging out the side of

00:10:30
the cable car up the window, like, get down there, get a

00:10:34
taxi, don't wear goggles Huntley like this.

00:10:37
And I like, what, what? Yeah, literally I do sounded we

00:10:41
sounded the alarm across the whole of the Costa Del Sol.

00:10:44
And so, we were shouting to your friends in the front cable car.

00:10:48
Yeah, not to wait for us. We finally got to the bottom and

00:10:51
ran out. I think we've been told the

00:10:52
cable car operator that we were being chased.

00:10:55
So what did they say was scary? I think he was just that we did

00:11:00
nothing. Yeah, absolutely nothing.

00:11:03
We're literally just like a lot of hysterical.

00:11:05
Like small town, 18 year old girl.

00:11:08
We ran to the main street and tried to flag down a taxi, but

00:11:11
the little boy was chasing us still, and was shouting.

00:11:14
They're here, they're here, they're here.

00:11:16
We dived in the taxi and told the man just to drive.

00:11:19
We made him divert a little little bit and we eventually got

00:11:22
Got back and barricaded ourselves into the flat.

00:11:24
What? A great day.

00:11:26
The end. That's crazy.

00:11:34
I mean, that's I have never been on a girls, Papa girls holiday.

00:11:39
So I don't know how it's supposed to go down, but I'm mad

00:11:41
not like that. Groped and check is scary when

00:11:45
you're in a foreign country. Because I guess when you're in

00:11:47
England, there's a level of you know that you can find safety

00:11:52
with someone or like at least like like there's no, you know,

00:11:56
what you are, don't you there is a language barrier.

00:11:58
Police are gonna take you seriously but like, oh my God,

00:12:01
being in a foreign country. Even if it's somewhere within

00:12:03
the EU where it's like, you know, very funny that costed us

00:12:08
all like it's full of tourists but I mean like we we thought it

00:12:14
was so scary at the time, like we hyped up to be something and

00:12:18
like we were just talking to my girlfriend's about it and we

00:12:20
were like they might have just been, you know, quite friendly.

00:12:22
But obviously maybe obviously not like maybe it was that

00:12:25
overhyped a little bit. Yeah.

00:12:26
He groped my bum. Like that's really inappropriate

00:12:29
and he waited for us but immediately were like, we're

00:12:31
going to be We sold off to the sex trades.

00:12:34
Like when you thing is, when you put it, when you break it down,

00:12:38
someone groped you and followed you and chased you.

00:12:43
And we do you like none of? That's like, none of.

00:12:46
That's like you can't. There's no way of like

00:12:49
justifying it for them. Yeah.

00:12:50
Let's not. Like I'm trying to very very

00:12:54
bizarre know you know whatever. Like, why I'm sorry?

00:13:04
I mean, I don't want to be it grabs, but I uh, once in a while

00:13:08
too, it's not the same. But I used to absolutely hate

00:13:14
being catcalled by like men in Vans and cars and he's the hate

00:13:19
it. Until one time I remember, I

00:13:22
was, I was walking home and I felt disgust I was having a

00:13:26
horrible day. Like, you know, that the hair

00:13:28
wasn't right, the phases of, right?

00:13:29
I felt like a gremlin and I was like, walking home in the rain.

00:13:32
And this, Scar went by a beat and I was like, okay.

00:13:39
People like it so much. Thank you.

00:13:44
I know me. I don't like the heckling and

00:13:47
there's a very good way to deal with heckling?

00:13:48
I found if men in Vans, they shouted obscenities.

00:13:53
I just start waving and go, like, thanks for the lift Dad.

00:13:56
Thanks Dad. And I makes it really weird that

00:13:59
I won't have you guys got any funny stories that you've had?

00:14:05
Obviously with it. Don't have to be a holiday.

00:14:08
But just with your And then I mean q.

00:14:10
What was your first girls holiday?

00:14:11
Like I want to live. Well, me and the girls, you

00:14:15
know, we have a start time, I had fun.

00:14:18
I have had a lot of cool little Lads holiday you know?

00:14:24
But there were girls. I've had a few of those, the

00:14:26
holidays. I'll give you.

00:14:28
I mean, I have several options. I have been to a.

00:14:31
I remember I went to a club ones.

00:14:32
I went to University in Luton right wild.

00:14:36
Yes, it was pretty crazy. That And I remember being like

00:14:40
really drunk at this all-you-can-drink bar at like 2

00:14:43
a.m. and then my friend called me and he was like, get your

00:14:46
passport, we're going to Amsterdam and I was like, but

00:14:49
I'm really drunk and I have nobody.

00:14:51
These like, it doesn't matter, get your passport.

00:14:53
And all I remember was waking up in Bruges and we like I was so

00:14:58
hungover. And then from there we drove to

00:15:00
Amsterdam and it was like Queen's Day no no hotels or

00:15:04
hostels open. So we had to sleep in the car

00:15:07
and we just literally wandered round.

00:15:08
Amsterdam for days, and days with no money just eating

00:15:14
getting high and then just walking around staring.

00:15:17
You know. There's like all these, you

00:15:18
know, like there's the red light district and is all there like

00:15:20
women. I love.

00:15:21
Amsterdam is beautiful, right? So you just add all the boobies

00:15:25
for free? No.

00:15:26
Now, that's not where the fun came from, I respect that.

00:15:29
That's great. The fun comes in when you walk

00:15:32
down those places and there's all these weird CD men and those

00:15:36
men, some of them can't handle like being rejected or they

00:15:39
don't want to spend too much and they're like, get really angry

00:15:42
and they're like spit the windows or whatever and the

00:15:44
people that run that shit, they don't want it.

00:15:47
So we would just kind of be sitting there eating like

00:15:49
munchies, like really begs and just watching these like I guess

00:15:52
their pimps. I guess they're kind of pimps

00:15:54
these camps like being up people and stuff like we were.

00:15:58
I think I would spit on the window we were like oh no that's

00:16:07
your own private peep show. Yeah, I have one where people

00:16:12
pulled AK-47 rifles on me in the middle of the Jungle.

00:16:16
What? I just casually just casually, I

00:16:19
mean, can you can you talk about that?

00:16:22
Yeah so I was in Cambodia and oh good oh good story starts, oh I

00:16:31
was in Cambodia. I Woke Up In Bruges idea.

00:16:38
Go wherever the wind takes me, you know?

00:16:42
I mean it was a lovely, lovely trip.

00:16:44
I was like proper like you know proper traveling and all that,

00:16:46
you know I was like really really into that and I still

00:16:49
have but I'm just pause. So I don't I basically we were

00:16:54
like I was trying to get to this like jungle is this a kind of

00:17:00
what you call it but you know like they have the plankton in

00:17:03
the sea that lights up blue. Yeah when you touch yeah the

00:17:06
bioluminescent Plankton. I wanted to see that and We were

00:17:09
going to this like middle of a jungle where we took this like

00:17:12
hot to sleep in and which by the way, was has no windows or

00:17:17
anything. So it's just when you go in at

00:17:18
night with your light all you see is the eyes of massive

00:17:23
spiders everywhere that's like basically the aim was to go into

00:17:29
this plate. This place that literally it's

00:17:31
like a nature reserve like right in the middle of the Jungle but

00:17:35
like no, we're in the middle of nowhere and it's It was like

00:17:39
super cheap that's like but, you know, I luminescent Plankton and

00:17:43
I had no idea really obviously how to get this bit.

00:17:46
So, got taxi, which I thought was the smartest thing.

00:17:49
Like, you know what? I do here, you know, and he

00:17:52
would be like, oh yeah, of course.

00:17:54
Like is where they always say. Yeah.

00:17:56
Because they want the, the job, right?

00:17:58
Yeah. They're like other that I have

00:17:59
no fucking clue, but getting will drive.

00:18:01
Yes. And that's right.

00:18:03
Anyway, it was like rainy season in the, in the jungle and in the

00:18:07
Cambodia. So everything was super wet and

00:18:10
at once we sort of got a bit kind of into the jungle, where

00:18:14
there's this like Road it was just all this car was just

00:18:18
sinking and he was like I'm not going any further and we were

00:18:22
like oh but we don't know where we are and he couldn't really

00:18:25
understand the saying. But anyway, dropped us off in

00:18:28
the middle of the Jungle and he's like, just go that way and

00:18:31
like point he can to the juggle just like, just go that way.

00:18:34
Like okay sidewalk in with like Of bags, it's raining sinking in

00:18:40
all the mud and the sand. And just I have no idea if we're

00:18:44
even like in the right place, going the right way, no one to

00:18:48
be seen nothing and I'm just like oh this is a horrible place

00:18:51
to get stuck here. If it's something goes wrong,

00:18:53
it's not get darker as well. Like it's like you know and this

00:18:58
like motorbike just started coming down the road and was

00:19:02
like, oh great like maybe I can ask for directions and they just

00:19:05
kind of went past us really fast.

00:19:09
Came back, they had AK-47 rifles and just start putting them on

00:19:13
us and shouting at us. And I was like, oh my God, like

00:19:16
I have no idea what to do here when we fucked and then they

00:19:21
like the one in my pockets, took my passport.

00:19:24
And I was like, I was like, we're getting mugs like we're

00:19:28
getting mugs and then they took a picture of the possible and

00:19:31
gave it back to me and then they drove off and what?

00:19:34
Yeah, I was just left there in the jungle.

00:19:36
Like, I don't know what happened, but I was, you know,

00:19:39
it's on edge and carried on walking and then when I got to

00:19:43
the eventually found this like plays which is Beautiful by the

00:19:46
way and I said that'll woman. I was like these guys, they they

00:19:49
pulled rifles on me and she was like oh yeah yeah they like

00:19:54
protect the jungle. Like they make sure that

00:19:56
whoever's coming in, they know who's coming in and if you if

00:19:59
you're doing stupid stuff and they'll know who you are it's

00:20:02
like they protected by law and stuff that but there but there

00:20:05
are private companies. So they're not in outfits or

00:20:08
They're just guys in hoodies the motorbike and take a similar

00:20:12
thing. Happened to me in Peckham and

00:20:14
Peck earlier middle of the Jungle of pick a million things,

00:20:19
go through your head. You know, you're just it's

00:20:21
sitting there and someone points a gun at you just like oh you

00:20:24
have no idea what you're saying, but, yeah, I had a few sketchy

00:20:27
experiences in Cambodia to be fair.

00:20:29
Like I remember, I went, like I remember what I went on a

00:20:32
tuk-tuk and, and there was like, a map where they were like

00:20:36
tourists, you know, Jordan what tourist things do.

00:20:38
To do and he was like pointing to this like picture of like a

00:20:41
kid and his dad at a gun range like shooting guns and stuff.

00:20:44
He's like, don't do this. Let's say yeah.

00:20:46
Okay, yeah and he drove us into the middle of some jungle where

00:20:49
he had to like build Bridges with like logs and things to get

00:20:52
over B in the tuk-tuk. We got there and all it was was

00:20:55
just this like middle of jungle like made up Warehouse thing

00:21:00
that they built themselves and all these guys had piled weapons

00:21:03
from the Vietnam War. So there's just piles of old

00:21:06
m---sixteens and and rocket. Punches and stuff and they're

00:21:09
like what you want and then I got there and they were like,

00:21:12
it's $250. I was like and I was just there

00:21:16
with a dodgiest looking people. They had they were smoking weed

00:21:19
as well which is like super illegal there.

00:21:22
And yeah I didn't want to leave without paying.

00:21:26
I just felt like it was at that point where we the guy drive us

00:21:29
all the way there though. There was no one else I have

00:21:31
these weird guys like what you want to shoot a rocket launcher

00:21:34
and I was like, I'm not shooting for the Vietnam War that's Kind

00:21:38
of blow up in my face. So I just shot a rifle loads and

00:21:42
then left 250 dollars poorer some 50.

00:21:47
That's crazy. And this podcast is sponsored by

00:21:51
the Cambodian touristy. Great country by the way.

00:21:56
Oh my goodness. The public the public.

00:22:03
They're funny. Holiday stories.

00:22:04
I have got a bunch in, but I was just thinking about me and my

00:22:07
family. What is like the funny?

00:22:10
What's the first story that comes to mind?

00:22:12
And I think it was back in when I was like 5 and my parents, we

00:22:17
lived in Canada and we used a holiday around Canada and we

00:22:20
were driving once on like an interstate and we stopped

00:22:23
because there was this huge turtle in the road, like a huge

00:22:29
Turtle, like the size of like a small Fiat 500 or something was

00:22:32
massive, and it was in the road and my parents were like, well,

00:22:35
we can't leave it in the road, bless it.

00:22:37
What we gonna do. Do.

00:22:39
And so they got out and my dad was like, you know, thinking how

00:22:43
can I move this massive Turtle across the road?

00:22:46
And remember, we were in the car, like, looking at this

00:22:47
turtle and then I think my dad was getting really close to it

00:22:51
and who's going to shift it and then other people coming on the

00:22:54
other side, the road they stopped.

00:22:55
And ran out and were like, no, no, no.

00:23:00
And they were like, no, it's are you from here?

00:23:02
It's a snapping turtle. These things have these huge

00:23:05
come out and they can just take off a hand or an arm.

00:23:08
That's so dangerous. I've heard so just leave it

00:23:12
there with my dad being like, Oh, I'm just gonna move this,

00:23:13
poor Turtle to the other side of the road.

00:23:16
And so yeah. Luckily, these people happen to

00:23:18
come by and stop. My dad's arms from getting

00:23:20
snapped off. But yeah, I was asleep in the

00:23:24
car like definitely lost an arm, but what a holiday?

00:23:29
This is your dad. Just loses my childhood.

00:23:32
It's a turtle. Here is the part of the show

00:23:44
where we asked the audience to get in contact with their

00:23:47
stories or questions or problems.

00:23:50
And we've had a couple of bangers in.

00:23:51
So these were some funny holiday highlights.

00:23:54
A couple were on holiday and they crashed a Class of 84 high

00:23:59
school reunions and people thought they remembered them and

00:24:03
they were happy to see them after all the years and they

00:24:05
just pretended for the evening to be like George, how are you?

00:24:10
And these people were so I guess like the not afraid to not

00:24:14
remember someone that they pretended, they knew them and

00:24:17
they'd a great night. So I'm like, God that's awesome.

00:24:19
Amazing crashing. That's hilarious every day.

00:24:22
It's like a movie exactly, another one.

00:24:26
From Instagram said that he sat next to an absolute cutie on his

00:24:31
flight and was was like, loving the fact that he was getting to

00:24:34
talk to this girl. And then the flight attendant

00:24:37
asked, if he wanted coloring pens, he was 24.

00:24:41
Oh my God, the Toby minute? Well, they thought you was a

00:24:44
kid. Yeah.

00:24:46
He's trying to impress these hot girl next to him and then they

00:24:49
offered him. What would your husband coming

00:24:50
pins? She's like, that's hilarious.

00:24:53
I'm sorry, whole, I need to know what his diet is, right?

00:24:57
Because I'm pushing 30, and I would I'd love to be mistaken

00:25:01
for a child like don't don't don't you don't want that.

00:25:05
Trust me. I've grown up looking so young.

00:25:08
Like I got, I got id'd one. It's too hot for buying the

00:25:11
Karate Kid, which is a 15, by the way, and and they refused to

00:25:15
sell it to me for it. And I was like, you think I'm

00:25:17
14? You think I 14?

00:25:20
And then I had to get a friend to go in and buy it.

00:25:25
Oh, I was like 20 something obvious like in my early

00:25:28
twenties like I was like 23 but I've alike I learned, I don't

00:25:32
look so young now. But like if I shave like my,

00:25:35
even when I had like an agent and stuff like they would always

00:25:37
put me forward for castings. Like, kid shows like Disney.

00:25:40
Plus like and shit. And I went into this Disney

00:25:42
casting and it's just all these like 12 year olds and they were

00:25:45
like make yourself look young and I'm there, like I just look

00:25:47
like a paedophile, I do not belong here to get the part.

00:25:52
I love get id'd. Like I used to get so offended

00:25:55
when I was like sort of like 18, maybe 17 or maybe even up to

00:26:00
sort of 22, I got offended. The minute, I got over 25 years

00:26:03
here idea. Mike, absolutely.

00:26:04
There we are. 29. You thought I Was Eighteen or

00:26:06
Seventeen. Did you think you'd take it

00:26:08
back? You know?

00:26:12
When you're going through and you're buying something like

00:26:13
medicine or alcohol and if flags up you need assistance and then

00:26:16
the assistant comes over and they can press this big button.

00:26:19
That says clearly looks over 25 and every time they just press

00:26:24
it and they don't ask me. I'm not you didn't even ask to

00:26:30
check out. You won't even be polite clearly

00:26:32
looked over 25. She's fine.

00:26:35
She's old and you get to the point where were like 14 was

00:26:39
still going to the checkout. Just so the computer asks us if

00:26:42
we're 25th and we have a problem scenario that I don't we.

00:26:56
So some of our instead I got drunk with a friend and we

00:27:00
booked 1-pound flights to Bali which I paid for.

00:27:04
Now I fallen out with said friend and she's refusing to pay

00:27:08
for her half of the ticket or do I Oh, I do.

00:27:11
What would you do? What do you think she should do?

00:27:13
Or he? She or he.

00:27:14
Oh God. Did I've heard this before?

00:27:17
I've heard this a lot and there's many reasons, like no

00:27:21
good solution because when you think about it, if I was going a

00:27:24
whole day with someone and they bailed out, I'd be like you have

00:27:27
to pay for your heart, you know I mean mmm but also like I know

00:27:31
people who have like falling out they like on good terms because

00:27:34
if they fall out over it then they're not going to want to

00:27:36
like they're gonna be like well I paid for if I'm paying for

00:27:38
that, I'll still go. And then I've seen people Break

00:27:40
up, and then neither of them want to, you know, pay for their

00:27:43
half off. So they end up going on holiday

00:27:45
together even though they hate each other and stuff.

00:27:48
You know, I don't know what to do in that situation.

00:27:50
Would you sell the ticket times or like?

00:27:53
So either you have to find somebody with the exact same

00:27:56
name. So I remembered.

00:27:57
So there's a guy whose girlfriend broke up with him and

00:28:00
he found another like Sandra Johnson on Facebook and they

00:28:05
ended up going on holiday. I like nothing happened.

00:28:08
No romance or anywhere. That would have been a great

00:28:09
story. So yes.

00:28:10
So either you find someone else with the exact same name and

00:28:14
only cost 50 quids to change in air.

00:28:16
That's the principle. Sophie Ryanair, a name change

00:28:20
can be 250 pounds. It's now there's and there's

00:28:23
admin fees or they can they can charge you as well like the

00:28:26
price of the ticket, like, if they're the tickets got more

00:28:28
expensive, they can charge you the extra or the other option.

00:28:31
I saw a guy do online, so rather than paying the 250 Ryanair fee,

00:28:36
he went to deep hole and changed his name.

00:28:40
Because somebody and he he changed it by Depot to from 35

00:28:45
pounds. So he was able to go on the

00:28:47
holiday. I was like genius, Phineas not

00:28:50
buying your passport as well, you know?

00:28:52
I mean like is it name changes on passport-free because it's a

00:28:55
name change. You still have to buy the

00:28:56
passport for like 50 Quid. Wow.

00:28:59
But it, right. I think it depends going back to

00:29:01
your, the, the girl, what that like, you kind of touched on it,

00:29:04
what they fell out over, and who's fault who's at fault as

00:29:09
well, like, if your You're like, he said, if you're good terms

00:29:12
and there should be no issue, should just be like, yeah, he

00:29:14
go, there's the money back for it, or I'll help you find

00:29:17
somebody to fill the city, but if it's the fault of the person

00:29:19
that's bought the ticket, that's when it becomes a bit tricky.

00:29:22
If you've been like a bit of a horrible person or you've done

00:29:25
something wrong here with their grandma or something like yeah,

00:29:28
yeah, you'd slept with like the partner, then the grandma.

00:29:40
Changing in by Depot, change your past fall.

00:29:42
I don't know, find another school.

00:29:45
So did you know what? This is the, this is probably

00:29:47
that the soundest advice I could give and that is, is that you

00:29:51
could always always make more money cut, take that from

00:29:55
someone who is very poor, it's not so just throw the tickets

00:30:02
away. I just realized why I'm poor

00:30:08
ticket. Some people are not going.

00:30:10
Going anywhere, I love it, maybe I'll do it.

00:30:25
I'll set up a new Instagram account Financial advice from

00:30:28
here. It would just be me and has to

00:30:29
be like Frodo. I said for PayPal link.

00:30:31
Send it here, or you can just say, you can always make more

00:30:34
money is the answer for every problem.

00:30:37
So, whatever the problem is, you, you're, you're a big This

00:30:40
not UJ like I've always been like, I need some help in

00:30:43
Josh's, like, just took money out.

00:30:44
It will fill with it later. Like, it's like, she's married

00:30:46
to, we'll deal with it later. We'll deal with it.

00:30:49
No, it was the. It is probably the best advice

00:30:52
that got given to me by an ex boyfriends, dad.

00:30:56
He was very wise, man. And he said to me, you know

00:30:59
what, sometimes you just have to Chuck money at problems to make

00:31:02
it go away and rather than stressing over the problem

00:31:06
because you can actually create more anxiety stress at the

00:31:09
problem. Actually, if you You step back,

00:31:10
isn't that huge? Will you remember in five years?

00:31:12
And he's totally right. Sometimes, you just got to throw

00:31:15
money at problems, and make them disappear, my wife's, really

00:31:18
unhappy. It's all right.

00:31:19
I'm going to buy her a necklace. That's okay.

00:31:26
I know what you mean. If you have a fine or if you

00:31:29
get, you get fined and you get this at you like you know what,

00:31:31
I could fight this. I could be angry.

00:31:33
I was going to get me angry or I could just do it like a release,

00:31:37
the money and be like, you know what, I can make more money and

00:31:39
then I can crack on My day and be happy or you can spend the

00:31:42
rest of the day like this. And I was like, it's true.

00:31:44
Sometimes you gotta just throw money.

00:31:45
Yeah, it is, I got a parking ticket and then ignored in the

00:31:50
parking ticket, which were private limited company and I

00:31:52
Googled it. And I'm like, yeah, ignore,

00:31:53
ignore, ignore. So I ignored them, but I know

00:31:56
them so much. Even though I was packing in my

00:31:58
own space for my flat, but because I didn't address it and

00:32:01
say, that's my space, I ignored it.

00:32:04
And because there was so many in the end, long story short, I

00:32:09
ended up with a CCD Jay. I didn't know about and then so

00:32:13
it's like a kind of anything uh Finance.

00:32:18
I kept trying to be like why can't I get my own mobile phone

00:32:20
contract? Like, what's going on?

00:32:22
And then I did a credit check and it was like, oh you gotta

00:32:24
see c.j. for like a year and a half.

00:32:26
I was like, what are not the court and they're like, oh, it's

00:32:29
these parking tickets and I was like, so I rang up my old

00:32:31
building and they like if you'd have just come to us and said we

00:32:34
did canceled. It sounds like yeah, I should

00:32:37
have just paid £30 and run with it.

00:32:39
Shouldn't know they're like yeah.

00:32:40
But pounds you know Sophie the moral of the story is you can

00:32:46
always make more money more than story is you can't trust the

00:32:51
system right off to Bali. No.

00:33:01
It's been awesome. It has thank you so much for

00:33:05
joining us here. We had a boat.

00:33:07
Thank you guys for having me so far.

00:33:09

00:33:10
Seriously, you really love you, wo the bad.

That's a shooting range. That sounds nice.

00:33:27
I'm going to fire a fire. A rocket from the Vietnam War.

00:33:31
Then no. And then we'll fall out and then

00:33:33
we'll fall out and you and then you can't get a ticket back

00:33:36
home. So yeah, that's it.

00:33:38
