About this episode
You may be disappointed when you hear that a slap around the face wasn't one of our "things" for this week. Nevermind, we proceeded to discuss the complicated languages of flowers and fans. That geraniums represent folly did not surprise us, but orange lilies meaning hatred did. But then we blew our own minds trying to negotiate the scenario in which you were presented with an upside down bunch of them! But trying to cool ourselves down by wafting our fans across our faces only made mattes worse - who knows what message we were sending.
Then, inspired by the Apple TV programme Severance, we ponder on the benefits or otherwise of having no memory of life outside of work whilst working, and having no memory of work whilst not working. No clear decision is made apart from that Heather has no intention of watching the show.
