Amanda Prowse and Penny Dommett nattering around the kitchen table, chatting about all things random. Another fab episode with standard dog snorts and snores as background music... Mandy confesses to feeling like her dogs are also her children, can you relate? We talk about the unconditional love of a pet and how much it means, even when your dogs are two part potato... Penny has her gast truly flabbered when she learns that Mandy is challenged by colourblindness! Mandy would be the worst florist in the world - you need your colours for that! We take a deep and scary dive into what colours look like to everyone else! We chitchat about the horror of online and telephone scams - it's the worst thing and can happen to the best of us, take care out there folks! Which raises the question, do we need landlines? Do we still use them? We touch on the recent story about suicide pods and talk a little bit about end of life choices... How do we feel about our right to die in the way we want? And finally - the joy of not doing anything in the face of drama - you don't have to blow your life up! Doing nothing is an option.
So, if you fancy it, pull up a chair and join us for a delightfully irreverent chit chat about life and all its random tangents - bring a cuppa. Cake optional...

Mandy is tired today - a little bit tired and in her tired state, makes a bit of an email gaff - Ooops! And for the first time ever - Penny loved all the names in Mandy's novel - yay for Swimming To Lundy! Penny talks gardening, of course she does and gives tips for bulb planting - she's a clever bunny and is already planning for spring. We talk about what happens when a book comes out - how it all works. And is there still a place for hardbacks in this world? Mandy tells all about one disappointed attendee at her talk who thought she had actually swam to Lundy... The joy of leaving books in hotel libraries and passing on the love. Penny talks her boy and The Masked Singer with a sneak peek into the process - so exciting! We think the standard of Bake Off this year is very high - don't you? We talk weight loss strategy, all about balance and is breakfast three times a day a winner? We have the usual dog chit chat - yes, they do like to join in.

Amanda Prowse and Penny Dommett nattering around the kitchen table, chatting about all things random. The usual dog interruptions and laughter as we talk about Pen's recent holiday to somewhere fabulous! (although she's happy to be back to be near her mate! And she's now moaning about the weather - what's new!) That lovely burst of joy when you arrive on holiday and it feels like an eternity and then you blink and you're home again! Finally, Pen and Mandy find they have something in common - they both hate surprises, even when Pen was whisked off to New York - how awful! We also both sweat the small stuff and is one of the best parts of a holiday looking forward to it? We go into great detail about Rob getting his finger stuck in a fire engine - well we've all done that right? Mandy has been chit chatting at literary festivals and loving it! The beauty of a name and Mandy's desire to decorate the moment the leaves fall - i'm thinking of colour drenching every room! The joy of having pants that fit and we discuss our autumn wardrobe - and of course, Penny's advice on garden jobs for right now...
