GLADIATORS, READY!!!!!

This week, with the clock ticking ever more rapidly, and that festive countdown very much on, we talk about those organised people who, having been ready for Christmas since approximately mid August, like to remind the rest of us about that by asking in faux concerned tones 'And are you all ready for Christmas?', when they know full well the answer is going to be a resounding NO! Jo takes a rather more pragmatic to Christmas and declares one is 'ready' when one is eating cherry liqueur chocolates with your morning coffee, whereas Gill takes on a more panicked approach, not helped by developing a recent obsession with making the 'tension rod garlands' that she saw on Instagram. It's a packed episode though, as Jo learns a lot about hostess trolleys, Gill threatens to cry in the garage with a bottle of Baileys and we discuss why 'Susan' is such an excellent name! Merry Christmas!
