Can you tell me what happened? I can guess who it was and see if I'm right or not?ll just I'll use the name and then we can beeep it out. Right. But you're hiday the same time as that guy.

Well not with. Well not? That celeb I can say recognised me as much as Roy Stewart recognised me when he saw me at Oxford station. He just stared through you Stare through me like a charity on Saturday afternoon. Like like a lively bombastic student trying to get you to donate to a charity. Yeah ye. Bombastic bombastic. So Cll, who used to be our Nanny Yeah. she's moving to Australia. Yeah. She came out for a few days. Yeah We had a lovely time, Rosea's momum was there. So she came out Was a friend? Yeah. Did you make a look after the children? No, we didn't actually. No. But night. So it was like a come out because she's your friend Yeah for a holiday. That actually went early. Did you paid for her to go out? Yeah. That's nice.' a leaving present. Well, yeah, that's nice. But we'll probably go next year. Did you think she was under the impression that she may be sort of being taken out to do sort of secret childcare, but you didn't do any of that anyway. Well, I'd say it was an expensive way to do childcare and that you didn't even use. Well, she She'd be with them for an hour at the pool whatever. but it wasn't like de care. Yeah. It was like So you're there with you're part of the family, Rob. Is she's leaving. She leaves early, right? To go to Australia No, no, no, she's going to Australia. She's moving to Australia, but she leaves the holiday early.. Yeah. She goes to the airport. ye. Three hour delay. Yeah. All the passengers just put in a room. Yeah. There is the said celebrity. ye. She can hear him but she can't see him. What room they in? Changing rooms. They' in the waiting room, but guess what's been set up for this celebrary? A different section. Because a look at. I know we shouldn't look at our phones. Have a look at your phone. look I don't care. I'm looking at my phone. No. So they're just they're in a random sort of side room of an airport All theaiting passengers. All the waiting passengerser and they've basically put red boards up like someone's gving a cardiac arrest. Yeah. And he's just sat around there with his family. With his family They can hear him and his family behind it. So get this. here's another celeb. Yeah. Bleak this Right? Complaining that he hasn't got as many boards around him as the other slleb. No right. Yes, right. How And you're just sat there, dad, guys, I some strictly actually No, I wasn't there. sh this was Right So if you were there drinking you wouldve got boards. I don't organis these boards. So do you right, so how famous do you have to get for people to see walkking in miles off board They miles off boards? Or do you request boards? Because I'm gonna to say it When we got on the plane, ye I was there Yeah. So was Adam Lalana, the footballer. Neither us have had a sniff of boards. No I mean, you know, no offendense to Adam, but he retired about five six years ago. You know, it's out of athletes. No no one cares. drp. Yeah yeah. Okay, yeah, so no sniff of boardad. But ye So isn't that wild? Sh We'll put that picture on our Instagram. Ohven you've got to put that picture on. I'm gonna to say it. Yeah. Being behind those boards is worse. than being in front of the boards I'm replying a text message. I can see I't's the actual criticism. It's can't I was going to try and start it out. You went you went to look at the boards Yeah and you've got a text message I've got my agent, I've got a reply. you've got an agent. Yeah. What's it about? Is it about work? It's about work. It becauseress I work home. I'm at work So this is about of work. Yeah, it's time sensitive because it relates to something that's happening tomorow morning. So notot as time sensitive as the podcast that's happening to. I would argue Y your conversation' more time sensitive. However that does have a time sensitive pressure. So I would He said I need to know in the next forty five minutes whether you need a car for tomorrow. No It's some undiagnosed things going on in my brain that means I have to do it immedately or I'll never do it bas So if I owe someone money pay them the second after like it's like I'll transfer it to you. Literally within a minute, I've transferred it or I never will Right And people sometimes feel to I put it off because I feel like You want to keep the money as long ass No, just don't I don't want to go through that horrible process. Trfering money I like I've got attacks bill this this month, my tax for this month. yeah I know I've got the email waitingough I just can't. Can't be bothered to Is that because you don't like to see the money leave? Yeah. yeah yeah. I'm like the d you've. Probably money, haven't you? No, I think you're scared of it. No You're scared of it going now that you had it because you never had it. Yeah, that is true. So you panic of it. Yeah. That's normal. That's normal. Yeah. It's worse in my head now yeah, than it was when I was on fourteen gnd on do the Explorer. Yes, when I didn't give a shit. But that's a problem, isn't it? That is Becauseuse it's actually your lifes got easier, but your mind get harder. wayay easier. Yeah. Yeah. Where are my boards? I think any boards are just at home. you would sit behind the boards. I would say no need for a board. could if someone said Come this way, we've got a corner up S speedy boarding. If it was a separate room that existed as a room already, and they said, wouldould you like to wait in here? Absolutely Line it up. wouldn't want a separate room. If it was willill your family go in this meter square space so that no one could look at you No they can hear you. No It's a kind of board you'd use to cover a dead body. Yeah. If someone had just died and they'd just put that in the corner until the paramedics came. So the holiday was a bit stressful. Why was it stressful? It was fun Ba Beach There's a beach where we're staying and then there's a Swimming pool, yeah And the swimming pool is full depth. So last time so my daughter can swim now. Yeah. My son can swim with arm bands but you can't just leave them to go in that pool because you've got been there with them Yeah. So and you're allergic to chlorine? No, I'm fine now. Are you al right? My skin secure aging. I just have my skin hardened up, I suppose, Robbert. You know how you're allergic to things when you're kids and Yeah. So you went on holiday No, I was at home the whole time. but boiling. so hot. Unbearable at points, like thirty five hot to a point like you ever walk outside and you sort of just shout fuck off at the weather. Yeah whenever when I lived in Hckley. we bought so we bought a A sprinkler thing from Costco that it's like a frog with four legs and its mouth. And then the water comes out of its mouth and the underneath. Yeah. And you plug it into the hose, perfect sprinkler. D. We didn't have the electric inflator so I had to self inflate by hand. What do you mean? So like we did't have like an electric pump not heat inflate What it inflates the frogs. The frog legs inflates So it's such a big On the picture it doesn't look like it mucharch it looks like Lilo. so I think I could bl up a Lilo in my mouth right? It's probably like ten Lillo amount of air. Yeah. So I've got this bike pumping that connects to it I'm pumping pumping pumping but it's fifty five degrees and It's like I've given it everything for five minutes and it is now and is. And there's like, it's boiling hot. The kids they're so pale and blonde and they've got a cream on but I can actually hear m like sizzling under the sun. they're going Is it ready yet, dad? Is it And I'm pumping and it's like my they slide off your nose swear And then I'm like you had to have someone hold it in the valve and then some to pump So I'm saying something' just pumping into nothing. Well, I'm not I'm saying you hold valve? And you know what the kids like, they just sort of hold it for a bit and then give up Yeah. And then I look around, I'm just pumping into air deflates I just I don't want to be that dad on a half term to just scream his kids but it' was just so hot. Yeah so tous. And I just can just keep it in the buckin all that happen that too fair, they chipped in a bit as well, but that nearly killed me doing that. But that was it was nice so the heat. Re? No. It was too much twentyw five' nice. Yeah. thirty five' insane So yeah, so I was at home doing that the night to go to Tery filming. I've been so busy. I'd to go to Tenery to film I've never left England and arrived in somewhere like Tenerif, and it'd colder Tenerif than England So I left England in like just shorts of a t shirt. D didn't even take a a jumper. By the first time I was meeting out there, they were like, I literally picked up a jumper of the bring, but it was so hot in England that I just thought I can't even hold this. Never mind think about backacking it. Got there Ce B' in cold. I was like I'm Tenorf, I'm colder than was in England. Oh Rob. So that well was I can't think what was.

But then there was the beach which the grown upps liked, but the kids didn't and then there was the pool where the kids wanted to be in all the time, but you had to be in with them.

I know other kids are turned up at that point. Then the other kids turned up, and Ill see the parents look at the other parent going, I've got iPads, haven't got iPads for our kids.. it's a bit like taking iPads to a party is a bit like being on a stag deer and someone bringing drugs without checking everyone else. Yeah. It brings a different energy to the party doesn't it? Yeahah. But they're on them and then The eight year olds up buuzzt, but my ten year old's like, I don't want to do that o, sure, I don't want to play with the younger kids I thought I and she want to be in the party.

Absolutely high on iPad. but staring at the red. And then got after twelve, I'd got really drunk. Yeah, I imagined. Really drunk. Had you watched any of the football? No, noone, I was just following on the phone and toking and I went inv. And then Monday was an absolute write off. All right Barlt I was sorry. thank God, I wasn't podcasting Monday.

And now for a special part of today's show Now versus Then, where Rob and I will compare our carefree pre kid spending with the more responsible realities of life after children. brought to you by Experian, the UK's most trusted credit score. Now Josh, I think it'd be fair to say our spending habits have changed Since having kids. Before kids, my spending was a lot more impulsive. And it was like stuff where I'd like buy memorabilia or I'd buy stuff that what memorabilia did you buy? was football memabilia that now I just wouldn't buy. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Because now I' think a box of Plymouth programs from nineteen sixty four. And is that because you've got kids who you've got more self respect now A little from Columbay, a little from Columbay It didn't feel like there was any consequences if I'd spent money on records or something before I had kids and now I'm like need records. Why would I be doing that? I need music. this music in other ways in more fiscally sensible ways. Do you know I don't spend money on anymore? What hung over food on delivery apps? T right. I'm now having to transfer money to, you know, bank accounts to pay for summer camp. Exactly right. Musical theatre groups, which before kids I wasn't doing. No J funny enough. You know what? The amount of money that goes on experiences that I'm not going to have myself. Yeah. Yeah. Well that was the last time you booked an experience for you. No yeah, if I do something for myself, I feel guilty now. Id might as well load to little random two quidds Yeah. You know what it's like, Oh two quid like my daughter will be like I need spotty tights today for children in need I need too quid.

Stuff toys The amount of teddies I've bought since I having kids, I just wasn't behind them. Yeah, exactly. And you know what?

And a full Taewondo outfit. once. and then they don't give you your money back. I was like, what's this direct debit of a gym? Oh no, it was that gymnastics lesson she left fifteen months ago Let's be honest, Rob, desespite our reputation since having kids, we've become more sensible.
