-- your host for tonight. Thank you. Thank you very much. Hello and | :00:27. | :00:34. | |
welcome to BBC Ouch! Storytelling Live. The stories we are going to be | :00:35. | :00:43. | |
hearing tonight are about love and relationships, and I do have a very | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
long massive relationship with my psychologist. Am I right, BBC Ouch! | :00:48. | :00:56. | |
People? High five! I have been seeing him for ten years now. -- | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
she. She is always tried to get me out of my mental health issues. And | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
that is quite a view. We have depression, we have anxiety, and | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
binge eating disorder, which is the cool one. I do not you know about | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
that. It is when you eat so that you can't feel anything. Write Mac | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
because there is a lot of pain inside, because, you know, you can | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
feel the bones, and to swallow them, and there is a lot of pain in my | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
throat after a good piece of chicken... My psychologist is | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
amazing. She is a very good psychologist. An incredible | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
psychologist. Those who can't see me, I am fat. And that is not a bad | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
thing. I like being fat. I love my body. I think everybody should love | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
my body. Because... Why wouldn't you? So that means that sometimes it | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
will give me advice on how to lose weight. It will be like, you need to | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
stop eating sugar. I am like a cannot. Because then I will feel. I | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
will feel. That is the reason I eat. So that I don't feel feelings. Eight | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
have depression and anxiety. I do want to fill my feeling. My | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
psychologist tried to fix as one. We were trained to deal with some of | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
the feelings that I can't show, like anger. I don't know how to express | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
anger. So when I do express anger, it kind of explodes, right? So she | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
tried to fix that. She said to me, you know,, next time you feel angry, | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
train express it. I said, oh no. I don't think that... I don't think | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
there is enough food in the world for me to feel angry. I'm sorry, | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
that will not happen. She said, next time you feel anger, said the words | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
I am angry. I said OK, this is a new. I went from that session, I was | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
very pleased with what I was about to do. I was like, I am going to go | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
out and try and feel my anger, and I to train express it. I was | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
practising the sentence, I am angry. Blee but it happened. I can set out | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
loud. And my best friend, it she is a very optimistic and happy person. | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
She is away smiling. Like, she believes in things they love... What | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
an idiot, right? And she met me the station, and I hoped her. And she | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
said my God, I am happy to see you. I said I was happy to see her. She | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
said you were to go to dinner? I Shaw. She said what you feel like | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
eating? I said I don't know. Asked. She said she wanted Greek food. And | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
then I punched in the face. I punched in the face. I saw this | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
happen in motion. I could just see my first... I was like I am | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
expressing feelings, and my heart was like, don't do it. This is what | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
we were afraid of! I saw my first just hit her stupid smiling face, | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
and she never once stopped smiling. She was just like, OK, we will get | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
pasta. I felt so bad. I did not know what to do. I hit my friend. I do | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
want to be that kind of person. I felt bad and she was looking at me | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
with her big blue eyes. I did not know what to say. And ideas that, I | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
am angry. -- and I just said that. And I stopped feeling feelings for | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
the rest of my life. That is somewhat of a fairytale. I would | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
love to introduce you to the first person in the stage. Are you up for | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
being very, very nice? Of course you are. Give it up for your first | :04:27. | :04:36. | |
guest. Everyone has taken all the good disabilities. So I got left | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
with dyspraxia. It is a developmental co-ordination | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
disorder. It is the less sexy cousin of dyslexia, which you will have | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
heard about. It largely affects motor control and speech and memory | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
and information processing. What generally happens as I fall over a | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
lot and cock everything out. As warning. Watch this space. I love | :05:00. | :05:08. | |
living alone, because people. So my favourite activity is sitting on the | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
server on my pants, watching the telly. I am all about that. I can't | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
keep pets or houseplants alive, so certainly can't keep love and | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
affection life. It is far too much affection to make responsibility. I | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
thought about online dating. It plays on your insecurities. It is | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
terrifying, because you're waiting there to meet the state, and you | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
have written your profile, and you're thinking, well, maybe taking | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
ten years off my age was too much. I did use flattering photos, and | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
pretend that I was not actually mental. Site because of their | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
worried about what they go dipping. So you're waiting to see him, and | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
you are thinking his could be right. Because people are better than that. | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
And in mainstream media would have us believe everybody is shallow and | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
observes that how you look, but I find in my experience that real | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
people will be able to see behind the method you really are, and | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
realise you're a beautiful person. And like that. So is feeling buoyed | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
up about it. I see him come out of the station. I clock on, and I | :06:05. | :06:12. | |
thought, you minger. And with dyspraxia, I was very loud is wary | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
and scary. Especially that no people, I get a bit overpowering and | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
overwhelming. People get nervous around it. This is what they said. | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
Obviously, it is nonsense, and I will fight anyone who says | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
otherwise. But this is just a classic dyspraxia symptom. I didn't | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
realise. As the ghost is this fascinating person with all these | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
quirks and so interesting, but it was very upsetting to find out that | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
I'm entirely 2-dimensional. Just take condition. So the state already | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
looks nervous. And that is before it all comes out. Just the presentation | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
alone is scaring the guy. I thought of thought we would go to the | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
nearest pub. And I am stumbling over, to be over, as they do. And we | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
try to get into the bouncer says you cannot come in. And the guy says you | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
are too drunk, you cannot come in. I get this a lot. Not always 1-iron | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
drunk. So turn to the guy and as you know, arguably bouncer, it you | :07:18. | :07:25. | |
always win. -- not always when I am drunk. So I am not being gracious in | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
defeat. I am just wearing a stumping off, having ago and vindicating him | :07:32. | :07:39. | |
under my breath. But I thought I was looking good because I was in my | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
high heels. I put them on a specially. I can't walk in high | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
heels. Cannot. Cannot stand in them. But this doesn't stop me. I am in | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
denial. I imagine that makes it look like some girly delicate flower, all | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
sanguine and sexy. Not like the angry tractor that are usually look | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
like. And evidently, we are going along and I fall. And I don't fall | :08:00. | :08:07. | |
in the wet I would fall in my head. -- the way. That is how I would like | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
to fall. No, I come along and stuck it on the pavement. It is just as | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
terrible mess of rigging. Everybody is aware of it. My advice is don't | :08:16. | :08:24. | |
start out. Just a on the ground. I have done it; is. You stay down, | :08:25. | :08:32. | |
they start to worry. They think, oh, hang on. -- just stay on the ground. | :08:33. | :08:42. | |
Stay on the ground. You have your pride. Stay on. So my day pics above | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
the ground, and I was quite amazed he did not let it -- stoppered in | :08:48. | :08:58. | |
the first place. So I go in and the landlady city bleeding everywhere, | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
and comes with toilet paper to say the furniture. I am sitting there | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
with blood and tissues, because that as to the ambulance of a sexy date. | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
-- meals. So at this point, I am covered bed drinking and crying. -- | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
ambience. And I am just asking why it is happening to me. This part of | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
the day, your message out. Smalltalk conversation, I can't do. I don't | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
understand. I had written to use up my arm and tried to pass it off as a | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
trouble to do. So I am chatting away. What do you do? Where do you | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
live? Pause for response... I think, no. Every bit as scintillating as | :09:40. | :09:48. | |
you might imagine. So we decided to leave, of our own volition, which is | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
excellent. Not being asked to leave. So just get back home in traffic at | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
all about it, watch cartoons, sit on the sofa in my pants, watching | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
television. Equilibrium is restored. In a few days later, the date texts | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
me and wants to see me again. Why? Why would you put yourself through | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
that? What sort of person would want to experience is that all again? | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
What sort of self-esteem problems do have, large? Absolutely ridiculous. | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
I do know anyone who wants a go at me again. -- lad. What a loser. This | :10:23. | :10:31. | |
might be the reason I been single for ten years. -- I do not know | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
anyone who wants to go with me again. Thank you. You have been | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
fantastic. My God, that was her first time ever on stage. I have | :10:42. | :10:52. | |
slept with worse comedians than that. That was amazing. We are about | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
to have another storyteller on the stage. Are you ready for that? Yes! | :10:58. | :11:06. | |
Give an amazing round of applause for Mick Scarlett! Now, when I first | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
discussed with the BBC ouch team what I would be talking about today, | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
I asked to talk about how I met my wonderful wife, who is sitting quite | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
there. -- Ouch! . This arresting her across the gas law and how I | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
immediately knew she was the one for me. No, they said. No, that is | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
really boring. What we want is something edgy. Sabena will push | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
boundaries. And I thought, I know, I will talk about my Willy, and sex. | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
Because that is edgy, isn't it? -- willy. I work up on the day my | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
Germanotta level, and my legs hurt. And I fell over every, to | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
understand. And embolus was called and I was rushed to hospital. It | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
transpired that my spine has collapsed. Yes, it is true, you can | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
break your back in your sleep. I just thought I would tell all you | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
biped is that you make your day. Eventually, at out-of-hospital, and | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
as you can tell, I had lost the ability to walk. -- bipeds. There | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
was no more standing for me. There was also no more standing to | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
attention down there. I had lost what the doctors called erectile | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
function. I knew that would happen. Complete silence. I thought, that is | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
aired. Game over. I thought that was it. I got really down and depressed. | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
I thought, I would become the best male friend. And all my girlfriends | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
would come around and do their hair and do their make-up, and I were | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
dressed all up, and then I would send out on dates. Normally, with | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
blokes wearing leather jackets, which is why I always wear one, they | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
don't want pets, and if they are real bustards, they own a Ford | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
Capri. And that was a giveaway sign that it would be bad. And then what | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
would happen is that she would come back at the end of the night and | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
cry. She was a he had sex with me and dumped me, why could they be | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
late you? I, of course, did not see this as what I would now recognises | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
a come on. I saw the thought that they would never want to be in the | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
because I cannot tell. So I thought, or you, it you'll be fine excite. My | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
best e-mail friends said they had met this girl, adding she is great. | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
What you Country Party admit her and all of the President of course. So | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
of course I was the one where the most make-up and a room. We are all | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
getting along all famously. As was the fashion, back then, we played | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
again. Drew Butera. We played it at every party. I don't know why | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
because it always ended with a row. Normally because we'll always | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
truthful or two daring, too truthful, but I thought this could | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
be at. This could be my chance. I could tell my secret. Up till then, | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
I had kept it quiet. My brother did not know, might parents did not | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
know, even my doctor didn't. I was going to admit to Mr Floppy. What a | :14:01. | :14:07. | |
sympathetic and caring? Not at first. You know when people have bad | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
thing, where it is not funny any more, they are just upset. But | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
eventually, my friend wiped away her tears, got her breath back, wiped | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
her tears away, and likely across the head. She said we are girls, we | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
don't have willies. We make love to girls and do it well. I easily had | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
not worked that out. Which kind of shows how innocent I was as a | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
teenager. So at the time, lesbianism and feminism were very closely | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
associated, and very radical, these girls were. And they truly believe | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
what was wrong with the planet was men and their wrecked function and | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
penetration. All can treasure and was bad. So suddenly, I was this new | :14:52. | :14:58. | |
type of man, a man who... The next revolutionary leap, according to the | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
skills! They thought it was great! I really like these girls. Cool. And | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
they took me under their wing. And they even made me and I'm very | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
lesbian. And as to go on lesbian marches. There was me and a load of | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
girls and just this bloke wearing lots of make-up and looking like boy | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
George on wheels. Down with men, men are bad! And they also taught me how | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
to make love to a woman like a woman. I wonder how many people out | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
there are matching it with pornographic thing. No, I'm still a | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
guy. They still wouldn't go near me, but they just taught me, told me, | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
with words, not actions. Sadly, but there you go. And when I was telling | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
the BBC about this, they said Aegerter tell you in? Even tells of | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
a circus that a dinner tell us? Please tell us! Well I won't. No. | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
I'm afraid I will not let you know, because that would be betraying the | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
sisterhood. -- are you going to tell last? And let it as it was out. So | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
girls, if you want to know it is like, you will have to make love | :16:06. | :16:07. | |
dormant. That was amazing. I think everybody | :16:08. | :16:17. | |
could learn from that story. Everybody. Everybody! If anybody | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
wants to buy me a pint I will be at the bar. Ready for another | :16:26. | :16:28. | |
storyteller? Pick your hands together and give it up for the | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
amazing Sean Lucas. -- put your hands. | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
Hello. So, I grew up with hearing loss. It means that essentially I | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
cannot function in society without my hearing aids. The funny thing is | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
that I didn't wear them until I was about 20 years old. So for the first | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
20 years of my life I didn't hear much. So how did I get by? I | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
essentially hung out with a lot of lovely people. I grew up in Italy, | :17:05. | :17:13. | |
so, I mean... You have heard some of those people over there. I come from | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
a family, we are 14 people. Everybody is really loud. You can't | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
understand how loud they are. Every time I go back for Christmas I have | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
to take my hearing aids off. It is just crazy. So, I had a girlfriend. | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
Her name is a lease. She is the Tisch, from Newcastle, but she does | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
not have a Geordie accent otherwise I would not understand what she is | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
saying. She speaks very badly and moves her hands a lot. As an Italian | :17:45. | :17:51. | |
I find this very attractive. The only thing is, she can speak quite | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
fast. When we moved in together, communication was a little bit | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
complicated. The colours she is not used to speaking to somebody who has | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
hearing loss. -- because shears. So she speaks to me like have perfect | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
hearing. Even if I have my hearing aids, I cannot hear 100%. If I am in | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
the kitchen, cooking, and you walk into the room and start talking to | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
me right away when I am not seeing you. I cannot hear, very likely, | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
that the year of what you just said. Even worse, if you speak to me from | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
a different room. So I had to tell Elyce, when you speak to me, don't | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
cover your mouth, don't mumble, and don't speak to me from another room. | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
But Elyce will forget. So I had to come up with a new strategy. So my | :18:41. | :18:50. | |
strategy was, a sickly, I was going to train Elyce as if she was a dog. | :18:51. | :18:57. | |
-- basically. So every time I could not hear how I would interrupter and | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
tell her what she did wrong. Elyce, you didn't speak while facing me. | :19:02. | :19:08. | |
Elyce, you are mumbling. And I'm annoying myself now, so imagine how | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
annoying I was to her. So obviously I thought this was a great idea and | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
I kept going. I took it one step further and introduced the marks on | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
the wall. We had a chalkboard at home and I said, Elyce, every time | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
you make a mistake, we are going to make a mark on the wall. Which | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
didn't work out, because believe it or not, I realised one day that she | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
wasn't a dog. What really work, we decided on a couple of ground rules. | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
The first rule was that we would always speak in the same room, no | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
exceptions. The second rule was the attention rule. Elyce would always | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
try to get my attention first and I would always give my attention to | :19:52. | :19:54. | |
her, so I would stop doing something and tune in. This worked because we | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
were both relaxed and we were open to accepting criticism. It wasn't | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
like I was trying to interrupter all the time. -- interrupted her. Elyce | :20:03. | :20:12. | |
came up with ways of getting my attention instead of calling my name | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
all the time. What she did was start using filler words. So before | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
starting to speak to me she would start seeing, by the way, all, you | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
know what? This was great, because it gave me the time to tune in. I | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
miss much less now, but I still miss things, but a beautiful thing is | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
that I don't get frustrated any more it is I know that she cares. Thank | :20:36. | :20:36. | |
you. Amazing. That's so good. We have one | :20:37. | :20:53. | |
more storyteller this evening. Are you up for that? You have been | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
great, everybody has been great so far. The spec storyteller is | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
somebody I am very proud to know. You will love him. Please start | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
cheering and applauding for the amazing Harriet Dyer. | :21:04. | :21:11. | |
I am wearing an outfit that sums up metal health, you are welcome. | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
That's my thing. I've got bipolar and it has caused some mayhem in my | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
relationships. I've got a boyfriend at the moment and he is proper, it | :21:22. | :21:28. | |
is absolutely lovely. Before this understanding boyfriend, that guy I | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
was seeing before had a problem with me doing stand-up comedy, beakers, I | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
think, he thought it attacked his masculinity. He kept telling me that | :21:38. | :21:45. | |
his job was more important and all of that. One day we were in bed and | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
he was telling me how good he would be at comedy. So he was pretending | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
there was a front row of women, they were women in the front row, and he | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
was seen, if you do not laugh at my jokes, you are obviously lesbians. | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
That is who I was dating. And then he has seen my medication, by my | :22:06. | :22:12. | |
bed, and he asked what it was. I am an open book so I said what it was | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
and he goes, does that mean you are going to kill me in the night? It | :22:17. | :22:25. | |
didn't mean that, but if you carry on talking... The first time I | :22:26. | :22:32. | |
thought I was in love I was at university and this guy, I just | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
couldn't leave that somebody like him would be interested in me. -- | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
believe. He was so good-looking. There were signs that maybe it was | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
not to be. This was a sign. Once in the bad I woke up in the middle of | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
the night with a very wet back. And I thought, why is my back wet. He | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
said, sorry, babe. I dreamt you were arrayed urinal. He dreamt that I was | :22:57. | :23:06. | |
a urinal, and he three weed on my back in the middle of the night. | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
That is not a keeper. At university there was this girl, I worshipped | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
the ground she walked on. I thought she was wonderful, really strong and | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
independent and funny, I really liked. So she became my best friend. | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
After a while, going out with this guy, I said to my friend, something | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
doesn't sit right with me. I don't trust him. She is my best friend, so | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
I opened up about stuff and all of that. She said, no, this is just | :23:31. | :23:33. | |
your mental health telling you this, it is all in your head. So I | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
thought, all right. When I spoke to him about it he said the same thing. | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
So I said, OK, that is what has happened. They were together, right? | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
They were getting together. And when I properly caught them, they were | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
doing the whole, yes, this is because of your childhood, Harriet, | :23:52. | :23:54. | |
dissent about. It was not even what they had done, it was the fact they | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
using that against me. I was livid. I was livid. They started lying to | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
me, and I punched them vote in the face, but, because I am not a | :24:06. | :24:11. | |
fighter, I have punched them both in the forehead, and I have broken both | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
my hands. Honestly. And then, because they were such horrible | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
people, that was not enough, I have gone home and then she has rang the | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
police. So the next morning I am in my residence, and I get woken up why | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
the police and they arrest me. So I have then been carted to a prison | :24:33. | :24:40. | |
cell, they just put me on the cell with this guy, and he had one tooth, | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
and he was just chatting nonsense to me. He told me he invented | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
toothpaste, right? I said, what are you on about? It made me laugh, | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
after all this nonsense. I have gone, mate, I don't think you did | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
invent toothpaste. And he's gone, no, if you think about it. If | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
somebody with lots of teeth invented toothpaste, it would be called | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
teethpaste. And I thought, you can't really argue with that, really. And | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
that is, honest to God, that is on my record forever. I used to do | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
teaching, and that is just so sad that is on my record. Thank you ever | :25:20. | :25:31. | |
so much. Cheers. Harriet Dyer! Give it up for all the stories you have | :25:32. | :25:38. | |
