00:00We've got our matching PJs on.
00:07Bye.
00:08Bye.
00:09Bye.
00:10Bye.
00:11You got bunny?
00:12Yeah.
00:13Hiya.
00:14These little ones.
00:15They're love hearts.
00:16Love hearts.
00:17They're puppies?
00:18Yeah.
00:19We're making pancakes.
00:20Don't mummy love you out there.
00:43Yeah.
00:44What are you doing in there?
00:51What are you doing in there?
01:11What are you doing in there?
01:23He likes eyeballs.
01:26Can I get Teddy?
01:31Hello Noobie.
01:34We've got some sprinkles as well I think.
01:41Put some sprinkles on.
01:42Some strawberries now.
01:43Daddy didn't have one of these.
01:44Look a chocolate heart.
01:45With sprinkles.
01:46Good morning everybody, it's actually not the morning anymore, it is the afternoon.
02:10I feel like I'm going to sneeze.
02:14Say pineapple.
02:15And then it stops it.
02:16No I want to.
02:17I've ruined it now.
02:18Sorry.
02:19Oh my god.
02:20Now it's gone.
02:21As you can see, we are sat in the car.
02:25We have actually just been out to lunch which was so nice.
02:29It's Valentine's Day.
02:30And we managed to like sneak a couple of hours out of the house, just the two of us.
02:35There's no girls in the back.
02:36There's no girls.
02:37Alfie's parents have just watched the girls.
02:39And it was really nice, we went to Flint House and had a...
02:42It was so lovely.
02:44Lovely lunch.
02:45So we'll insert a couple of little clips from that.
03:13On our way out of town, we picked up some boho gelato ice cream which is such a throwback.
03:25It felt like very nostalgic today.
03:28Yeah it did.
03:29It felt like a throwback, like just us two, mooching down the lanes, not in a rush, going
03:34to boho gelato.
03:35We even got the one flavour that we used to eat all the time.
03:38Carrot cake.
03:39I actually said what's the most popular flavour and she said carrot cake.
03:42Still.
03:43Still.
03:44Still loving the carrot cake.
03:45Also, I am going to do like a bit more of a chat to camera.
03:48Today has just been a bit like here, there and everywhere.
03:50So I thought it would be nice for us to do a little Q&A, catch up a little bit.
03:54But I will just say, I've got braces.
03:57This is the first video I filmed where I've got my braces on.
04:01Like full on braces.
04:02Full on braces.
04:03You've had a Visalign kind of thing before.
04:04I don't have them on the bottom.
04:06I just have them on six front teeth.
04:10And the reason for that is because I've got one tooth that is just being really like,
04:16what's the word?
04:17Stubborn.
04:18That's the one.
04:19And it needs pulling at the root and the retainer just wasn't quite pulling it enough.
04:23And my dentist was like, we can look at lots of different options or we could do a fixed
04:28brace.
04:29It's up to you.
04:30Fixed brace would be quicker.
04:31I was like, let's just do fixed brace.
04:32It's not going to be for too long, but it is getting a bit of getting used to.
04:37Sorry if that is like all you're looking at.
04:39It's not very visible.
04:40I think it's so visible.
04:42It's my top lip.
04:43Yeah, but it's one of those, like your mouth, everything feels bigger in your mouth than
04:46it actually is.
04:47Yeah.
04:48It feels like I've got like someone else's teeth in my mouth.
04:51It's literally a couple of months and then they'll be like how you want them forever.
04:55Yeah.
04:56But I do keep catching myself in the mirror and I'm like, oh my God, it's me when I was
04:5812 with braces.
04:59I'm like, oh my God.
05:01Cause I had braces before.
05:03That's the whole irony in this thing.
05:05You do get food stuck in them as well.
05:06Oh yeah.
05:07So fun times, fun times.
05:09Bought Ossie a little Valentine's bath bomb because she is as much of a fan of Lush as
05:16me.
05:17And that is, that is our morning.
05:19Probably going to go inside now and see what the girls have been up to while we've been
05:23away.
05:24It's a lovely day.
05:25It's beautiful.
05:26Very nice.
05:27Cold.
05:28Very cold.
05:29Yeah, it's cold, but it's beautiful.
05:30Um, but yeah, just want to say hi, start the vlog and I hope you enjoyed the little montage
05:34from breakfast and lunch.
05:36So, uh, it is, oh, where should I put my phone?
05:42Okay.
05:43I kind of need my phone.
05:44Hang on.
05:45Oh, okay.
05:46It feels so strange to like sit down and film like this.
05:51Um, it has been a while and I feel like I didn't properly introduce this vlog.
05:56I just kind of filmed the montage bits of Valentine's day, but hello everybody.
06:01I thought it would be nice to start the year off with a little video and just us sitting
06:08down.
06:09I haven't done a Q and A in a really long time and it feels like ages since we did vlogmas.
06:16I mean, it's not been that long, but in terms of like, you know, connecting with you, it's
06:22been a while.
06:23As you can see, I am sat in Ottie's room.
06:25Ottie was like, where are you filming?
06:27I was like, in Ottie's room.
06:29He's like, why?
06:30It just has the best lighting guys.
06:32As you know, this was the guest room before it was Ottie's room and I would always sit
06:36here and do my makeup and chat to you and it just, I don't know, it feels calm in here
06:41as well.
06:42Like I love being in Ottie's room so much.
06:43It's like the best vibes and I just thought that that would be nice for this little Q
06:48and A.
06:49Before we start with the questions, I just wanted to quickly chat to you guys about Better
06:52Help, which I have previously chatted to you about and they are the paid partner of today's
06:58video.
06:59I do notice that this time of year can be particularly challenging for a lot of people,
07:05whether that is the weather or the feeling and expectation of starting a new year with
07:12all these kind of goals and I don't know, setting yourself up with like things you want
07:18to achieve.
07:19It can feel very overwhelming and I have to say, I definitely felt that way at the beginning
07:26of the year, hence probably why I haven't filmed a video up until this point.
07:29I find the come down from Christmas so huge and I know I can't be the only one.
07:37Like, please tell me there is somebody else out there that finds that like, the like excitement
07:44and driving towards the thing, like the big moment, the big Christmas moment, spending
07:50all this time with friends and family and like, I feel like, you guys know how much
07:55I love Christmas.
07:56I feel like I get so into the enjoyment of the festive season that when it is gone, I
08:10get really sad.
08:12Like, I hate that like, there's nothing to look forward to in a way.
08:16January as a month is just not the most fun, so I do apologise if you have a birthday in
08:21January, obviously that is fun.
08:23But just, in general, I find it quite a hard month and I know that there are a lot of people
08:31out there that also find this time of year particularly hard.
08:34It is a beautiful sunny day today, we've had a couple of sunny days and I have to say,
08:39I have felt that, like, the sun has brightened my mood and it's been amazing.
08:47I think it's the feeling that spring is around the corner, I love that feeling so much.
08:53All through my like, teen years, early twenties, I'm sure I've said it a thousand times here
08:58on YouTube, but autumn is my favourite season and I do believe it's still up there with
09:08one of my favourite seasons.
09:10However, I think I need to change my answer to spring.
09:15I think spring is my season.
09:19I love the like, the flowers coming up, I love everything feeling fresh and new and
09:25the sun coming and going out for walks but it's not too hot and it's just like, being
09:31outside and just enjoying life a little more.
09:35Anyway, if you are having big feelings around this time of year or the expectation of the
09:41year ahead or you've had a particularly tough Christmas or you're just finding the start
09:46of the year particularly tricky, BetterHelp could be an incredible option for you.
09:52If you're new to the concept of BetterHelp, it is a platform full of trusted therapists
09:59that they can connect you with in order to help you, give you a bit of non-biased advice
10:05and they want to make it as easy as possible.
10:07You can simply go on over to their website, you fill out a very quick questionnaire with
10:11what it is in particular that you think you might need and they will match you with a
10:15therapist in as little as a couple of days.
10:17You can communicate with them however you feel most comfortable, whether that is a video
10:21call or messaging or a phone call, it's completely down to you and equally, if you find you're
10:28not vibing with the person that you've been matched with, you can ask to be matched with
10:33somebody else until you feel like you have found the right person.
10:37There is also a customer support team who are there to help you in any way if you've
10:41got any questions or anything in particular.
10:44So if you feel that that may benefit you or you're having a particularly challenging or
10:49tough start to the year, then I will leave a link down below.
10:52Make sure to go and check it out.
10:54It is betterhelp.com forward slash Zoe Sugg and that will get you 10% off your first month
10:59of therapy as well.
11:01So as I said, we'll leave that down below.
11:03It is there if you need it.
11:04Right, let's see.
11:05What questions have you asked?
11:06I actually have not scrolled through and looked at the questions you've asked me, so I have
11:11no idea.
11:12A lot of people asking how I am.
11:14Thank you so much.
11:15That is very, very sweet of you.
11:16I feel like I kind of have answered that.
11:18How is the wedding planning going?
11:21So we have a rough idea of when we want to get married and it does require planning.
11:26I know this.
11:28I know this.
11:29I just don't really want to plan it.
11:31I just wish I could like turn up and it's already like done and all the decisions have
11:37already been made and somehow someone's climbed into my head and made all of the things I
11:43can picture happening happen without me having to do it.
11:48But we haven't started planning though.
11:51We haven't started planning, but we have an idea of what we want.
11:55We have an idea of when it's going to be and we are going to start planning it.
11:59I promise.
12:00I feel like I've forgotten how to like make videos.
12:03Someone said, do you want a little boy someday or are you guys happy with two little girls?
12:09It's so interesting to me how so many people think you want one of each.
12:17And I have been asked this question a lot.
12:19I feel like some of you watching this that have like two of the same probably know all
12:25too well how many people say, well, would you like to have, um, will you try?
12:29My favorite is, will you try again for a boy?
12:32We all know that isn't what happens.
12:36You don't try again for a boy.
12:39Um, if Alfie and I were to ever have a third, which I don't think we will, it wouldn't be
12:45to have a boy.
12:46It would be to have another baby.
12:48It would be to have another person in our family, whether that was a girl or a boy.
12:53It's not up to us.
12:55You know, we don't, you can't choose obviously.
12:58And it's so funny because I can't picture us with a boy.
13:05Like I just can't.
13:07If we were to ever have a third, I feel like every time I say that I need to like bracket
13:13it with, which I don't think we will, just so you guys are clear.
13:16It would be a girl.
13:18Do you not think?
13:19Like, I can't picture a boy in our family.
13:23I don't know why.
13:25Not one part of me has ever thought, oh, it would be really nice to have a boy.
13:31I just feel so lucky to have Ottie and Novi and I can't imagine that any different.
13:36So yeah, I don't know.
13:38No.
13:39I'm so happy just with two girls.
13:42And even when we found out Novi was a girl, which I already knew, like I knew it was a
13:48girl.
13:49It was like textbooks, same symptoms, everything.
13:52I was so happy to have another girl because I loved having Ottie.
13:59Does that make sense?
14:00I remember saying to Alfie before we found out, I would be happy either way because we
14:07don't have a boy and that would be something new and something different.
14:10And that's what both of us are used to.
14:12Alfie has Poppy.
14:13I have Jo.
14:15Equally, I've loved having a little girl so much.
14:20I would be so thrilled to have another little girl and to have that dynamic that I never
14:25got to experience and to have two girls growing up together.
14:30I don't know.
14:31Oh, after the years living in it, would you like to change something in your house?
14:36Interestingly, so how many years has it been now?
14:39Eight years living here?
14:41There is actually quite a few things I would like to change about this house now.
14:46I would like to change the color.
14:47It's very gray.
14:49It's a very light gray.
14:51I don't think it's that noticeable.
14:53A lot of it's obviously darker gray, but there's definitely a lot of color that I would change.
15:00I think I'm getting to the point where I want to change the carpets.
15:04Yeah, I am getting an itch to change things now.
15:07Nothing huge.
15:09I'm not saying like, let's put a massive extension on the back, but we want to do the garden.
15:15And yeah, I think I would just like to change up.
15:17I think doing the girls' rooms and making them just feel a bit more fun and colorful has made me want to do the same in other areas of the house.
15:29And it has been, you know, eight years.
15:31I think that's like a good amount of time.
15:33The downstairs toilet, I would quite like to change that wallpaper.
15:36Botanical is not a thing anymore.
15:39Not a question, but you and Jo should do a podcast together.
15:43I love your chats.
15:44That is so interesting.
15:45I don't think anyone has ever asked us to do that.
15:48It would be quite fun, I think, doing something with Jo.
15:51We don't really do anything together, do we?
15:54It would be such an interesting dynamic, I think, like the sibling dynamic.
16:01Yeah, that would be quite funny.
16:03I don't have any plans to do a podcast right now, though.
16:05I'm already just feeling too overwhelmed at like making this video.
16:10So the thought of like trying to do anything else.
16:14This is going to be a stripped back year, guys.
16:16Just whilst I make the most of Ottie while she's still at home with us.
16:21How do you find yourself again when you feel like you don't know who you are anymore?
16:25This is such a good question, and I don't feel like I'm going to give it the justice it deserves in an answer.
16:33Because I haven't thought about a really good answer for this, but it's such a good question.
16:38And I feel like I ask myself.
16:40Sorry, the sun is setting like right in my eye.
16:43Maybe I'll shut that a little bit.
16:45There we go.
16:46It's like, I'm like, maybe.
16:48This is such a feeling after you have had a baby.
16:52I don't know if everyone feels this way.
16:54I certainly feel like this.
16:57Even more so now I have Nobi as well.
17:00Sorry, I'm sat in front of the radiator and it is hot, guys.
17:03I might have to take this off, but my bra is a little bit visible.
17:08Look, it's not the best.
17:10It's quite see-through top.
17:12What is tricky about answering this question is I don't think I have an answer yet.
17:18I think I'm in this.
17:21I very often am just living day to day in mum mode.
17:31Living life with the girls.
17:33Loving life with the girls.
17:36And then I'm so tired at the end of the day I don't even really fill up my own cup.
17:41And I know this is just like a phase of life.
17:45But I also know I could be doing more to fill up my cup.
17:49I think there are certainly things that I could be doing or putting more time aside to do.
17:55I'm just not right now.
17:57I feel too tired.
17:59I don't know.
18:00I don't know the answer to this.
18:01How do you find yourself again when you feel like you don't know who you are anymore?
18:04I'm going to say the things I always think I need to do more of in order to feel like I'm myself again
18:11is doing the things I loved to do before I had kids.
18:16Putting time aside with friends without your children.
18:20Doing things every now and then.
18:22Booking things in.
18:23This is key.
18:24Because you can't be as spontaneous.
18:27And I think just having little snippets where you can of doing things you love
18:34or where all you're having to think about is you in that moment.
18:39I don't know.
18:40Could someone else answer that for this person and for me?
18:43Thanks.
18:44Are the girls getting super alike or are they totally different now that Novi is getting older?
18:51They have similarities but ultimately they have very different personalities
18:56which is so wild because obviously we really haven't done that much different with Ottie than we have with Novi.
19:01The only difference with Novi is that obviously she is coming into us having already parented
19:08and she's coming into a dynamic where there's already another child.
19:11So I suppose she's never going to have the experience exactly the same as how Ottie had it.
19:17But we're not doing anything differently in terms of like parenting each of them.
19:21Yet they are so different.
19:23Ottie is the most empathetic, caring, thoughtful, charismatic, enthusiastic, creative, funny
19:38and what's it called when you're just like really intrigued by everything?
19:44I can't think of the word.
19:46You'll all be shouting it.
19:47She wants to know everything.
19:48She wants to learn everything.
19:50Whereas Novi is a bit more sensitive.
19:55She's a little bit more assertive.
19:57She could be a little bit more sassy, Novi.
20:00Ottie's quite like a steady personality and I feel like Novi has two very different polar opposite personalities.
20:07One minute she's like cuddling up to you and just being the cutest,
20:16like softest, most gentle soul.
20:20And like she's sucking up them and she's got her snuggly and she's just smiling and looking up at you
20:24and you just think like butter wouldn't melt.
20:27She's just the cutest.
20:29And a flick of a switch she could be snatching something off Ottie and like having a meltdown on the floor.
20:36She's not even, she's like one.
20:38I think she's going to be very fun and equally quite feisty,
20:43which I kind of love.
20:45I definitely see a lot of me as a child in Ottie.
20:51But with Novi I'm a bit more like who are you like?
20:54I don't know.
20:55Novi is just her own person.
20:57She knows her mind.
20:58She knows what she wants.
21:00I think she's going to be a very determined kid.
21:02And she's not as into people and emotions as Ottie.
21:08I think Ottie is going to do something in life that is caring for people.
21:12She's such a people person.
21:14Whereas I think Novi is just quite happy like rolling day to day.
21:19I do think Novi might be a bit more confident than Ottie though.
21:23I think Novi is going to be a bit more daring, a bit more adventurous, a bit more willing to try stuff.
21:30I think Ottie can be a bit more like reserved.
21:32She likes to like sit back and like watch, which was like me.
21:37Whereas I think Novi is just going to like run into things head first.
21:42So it will be so interesting to see if I'm right.
21:46Because these are just like the first little bits of their personalities.
21:51Obviously Ottie's personality is a little clearer to me because she's a bit older.
21:54But yeah, I don't know.
21:56I find it so interesting how different they really are.
21:59How did you find your C-section recovery compared to your first birth?
22:04So much better.
22:08Oh my god.
22:10I feel like I could do a whole video on both births.
22:15Because I don't really feel like I've gone into like too much detail on like what each birth entailed.
22:21But I found my C-section recovery so much easier.
22:24Just so you guys know, I had a planned C-section with Novi.
22:28Because my birth with Ottie, it's not that it didn't go well.
22:33It was still a very positive birth.
22:35But it had like a little hairy moment where Ottie just wasn't coming out.
22:40So in the end she was a von tooth.
22:42Had an episiotomy. Snip snip.
22:44And she was a von tooth delivery.
22:46And very nearly an emergency C-section.
22:52So with that in mind, my recovery from that was long.
22:57And it was so up and down.
22:59It was just very like one minute I felt okay.
23:02Then I would have infected stitches.
23:04And then I kind of felt okay again.
23:06And then like it was just so like all these different things.
23:10I think my biggest issue that I had after that birth was that I had a...
23:17My sacroiliac joint or muscle or whatever it is down here.
23:22That kind of like is connected.
23:24It's like the base muscles up through your like coccyx and stuff.
23:31There was trauma to that area.
23:34And I had severe pain every time I sat up.
23:40Like alleviating the pressure off was like excruciating.
23:46For around 8 months after Ottie.
23:50Obviously it wasn't excruciating the whole 8 months.
23:52Like I worked with an osteopath and like did lots of different things to try and improve it.
23:57But I was told it would be a chronic pain if I didn't take it seriously and get it dealt with.
24:06So yeah, that was not fun.
24:10I was like I'm not doing that again.
24:12Like the simple act of sitting and standing which you do so many times in a day was just...
24:23I would dread it for that amount of time.
24:26And it really impacted those like first kind of moments with Ottie as a newborn.
24:32Because it was just like so infuriating.
24:35It made driving really hard.
24:36I would drive on my side.
24:38Like on my hip I would drive like this.
24:40Like balancing. You can't see me.
24:42But I would balance on like one butt cheek basically.
24:46And now it's fine.
24:48But when I got pregnant with Novi I was like I don't want to do that again.
24:52Like that...
24:54Obviously second baby is slightly bigger than first baby generally speaking.
24:58And I was like no.
25:00If this baby is going to be bigger than Ottie there's no way she's coming out.
25:04Because Ottie was a struggle.
25:06So I opted for a Plan C section.
25:09And it was the best thing I ever did.
25:12The recovery was linear.
25:14So it was like every single day I felt better and better and better.
25:19I liked that it was localised.
25:23There was one area that was like healing rather than like everywhere down below.
25:29That was like not okay for me with Ottie.
25:34And yeah I just found it so much easier to recover from.
25:41But if you do want me to do like a whole video talking about like the births and I don't know.
25:48Things that I found helpful then do let me know.
25:53I just don't know if everyone is going to want that.
25:55Can you give discount code for the place to get a therapist?
25:58I swore that I would ask in the new year.
26:00Already done it.
26:01It is there in the description box.
26:03I'm going to do a couple more because the memory card is filling up.
26:08Can Novi walk now? Yes.
26:10She is off.
26:12She is walking.
26:14It is full on.
26:16But it is so cute.
26:18So many people are asking if there will be baby three.
26:20It is a tough one isn't it?
26:21I always thought I would know.
26:23Like I don't know why.
26:24I just always thought like you would know after you had your second baby.
26:28I feel like a lot of people I know are like nope we are done.
26:31We are totally done.
26:32Two is perfect.
26:33I feel like my life is complete.
26:35I'm like I don't know.
26:37Some days I'm like no.
26:39Two is good.
26:40I love having two.
26:41I can never imagine having another.
26:42And then some days I'm like maybe I could.
26:45I don't know.
26:46I really thought it would be a very like clear cut feeling.
26:50And it's not.
26:52It's really not.
26:53It's a huge huge thing to consider.
26:55Okay let's end on this question.
26:58What are you looking forward to the most for spring time?
27:02Oh my gosh.
27:03So many things.
27:04I can't wait for like picnics in the garden.
27:10Walks with the girls.
27:12Being able to like go out and do more things.
27:16I'm excited for any trips away that we may have planned.
27:22The sweet pea teepee.
27:23I'm going to do that again because I loved that last year.
27:26Honestly picking those sweet peas at the end of every day brought me so much joy.
27:30For any of you that may not have seen I made like a little sweet pea teepee in the garden.
27:35I'll leave a little like picture here.
27:37If I remember to edit it in.
27:39This could still be blank.
27:40That would be awkward.
27:41And it was super easy to do.
27:44And it was so much fun.
27:46So much fun.
27:47So I would say if you saw that last year and you want to give it a go.
27:52March I think is when I did it.
27:54Maybe like early April is when I did it.
27:57So I'm going to be doing that again this year.
28:00What else am I excited about?
28:03I'm excited for Novi to like be more confident walking.
28:06She's super confident walking in the house.
28:08But she's still a bit unsure on like hard footed shoes outside.
28:12Like the ground is very uneven out there.
28:14So we're still like she's still kind of getting more confident like walking with actual shoes outside.
28:20But I feel like in spring she'll have that confidence.
28:24And we can kind of like get out and about and like do more.
28:27And yeah I don't know.
28:29I'm excited for longer evenings.
28:31Oh my God.
28:33I cannot wait to just feel like we've still got some of the day once the girls have gone to bed.
28:40I'm excited to have like mornings.
28:44I think even more so than the dark evenings.
28:48I'm a morning person.
28:50I'm awake pretty early every morning.
28:52This morning I woke up at 5am.
28:54I would like to feel like I'm like starting the day with the day.
29:00A little bit more warmth.
29:01It's been so cold.
29:02So like a nice little 18 degrees, 19 degrees.
29:08Lovely.
29:09Let's have some of those.
29:12I need to like make a little spring bucket list.
29:15Like things I want to do in the spring.
29:18I feel like I'm going to have to cut some of these questions down so much.
29:21I'm such a rambler.
29:22We are out on a walk.
29:24Novie is in her little bike that she got for her birthday from Poppy and Sean.
29:30I'm not used to the new fringe with wind.
29:32Like it just like keeps catching and then it's like blowing.
29:35Yeah.
29:36Also Ottie is at Alfie's parents today which is why we don't have Ottie with us on the walk.
29:41We haven't just like left her at home.
29:43Novie's in her little bike.
29:45These things are so cute.
29:46They also bought one for Ottie for her first birthday.
29:50So now they've both got their own little bikes.
29:52Novie.
29:53Yeah.
29:55Is that fun?
29:57Yeah.
29:59It's a heron.
30:00A what?
30:01Is it a heron?
30:02How did you say?
30:03Don't film it.
30:04Where?
30:05Oh, do you know what?
30:06Look at it.
30:07They are so creepy.
30:08I don't know if you can see it.
30:10That is a heron, isn't it?
30:11Yeah, that is a heron.
30:13Chilling in there.
30:14Can you guys see that?
30:17I feel like they're just like.
30:18Look at it.
30:19Yeah, I'm telling you they're huge when they're flying in the sky.
30:22It's almost like a little mini ostrich.
30:24Really?
30:26Yeah, they're just one of those birds that have just always creeped me out.
30:29But yeah, this is lovely to get out in the evening.
30:33What's the time?
30:35Four o'clock, half four.
30:36Half four.
30:37Well, it's not dark at least.
30:39It's getting lighter and lighter every single day.
30:42I think it's seven minutes a day or something.
30:44Is it actually?
30:45I think so.
30:46I did see somebody post something the other day that was like,
30:48in however many days the sun will be setting at 7pm.
30:52And I was like, I cannot wait.
31:03Oh, handlebars.
31:04Can you reach them?
31:06Oh, her little nose looks so cold.
31:08Oh, almost.
31:14We are back off the walk.
31:16We're about to start dinner time.
31:18I actually have that thing where you have cold hands
31:20and you come into the warm and it feels a bit like stinging.
31:22Tingly, yeah.
31:23I love that feeling.
31:24You like that?
31:25Yeah.
31:26I hate that feeling.
31:27I've got something fun.
31:28Yeah.
31:29I'm going to open it with you.
31:31Is it something for the girls?
31:33Um, technically.
31:36But you'll enjoy it as much as them?
31:38I will enjoy this a lot and I think Ossie will enjoy it.
31:41I think it's a bit old for Nathan.
31:43Is it like a childhood thing that you had?
31:45I don't even know what it is.
31:51I have no idea what this is going to be.
31:53What is that?
31:55Groovy Chick.
31:57So these are like old Groovy Chick magazines.
32:00Celeb Trends.
32:01Look.
32:05I just was like, I need to see what's in these.
32:07No, it's even still got the freebies on the front.
32:09Yeah, look.
32:10It's a roller.
32:12I feel like I had this magazine.
32:14I feel like I bought this magazine.
32:16Stop.
32:17Anyway, I just thought this would be a fun little trip down memory lane.
32:20For me and Ossie.
32:21I just felt like Ossie's kind of getting into magazines a little bit.
32:24So I was like.
32:25Oh, she's going to love this.
32:26This will be so fun.
32:30Make it groovy.
32:32Jen's fab look.
32:35Look at the slims.
32:36Aww.
32:37That's fun.
32:38So nostalgic.
32:39That's right, Ossie's going to love that.
32:41Isn't she?
32:42I love that they've all like.
32:43So many of them have still got like the freebies on the front.
32:45The free stuff.
32:48The hairstyles.
32:49Honestly, look at this hairstyle.
32:51Fab picnic food.
32:52Imagine what this girl is doing now.
32:54I wonder.
32:55I wonder what she's up to.
32:57Alfie and I are now getting ready to go to bed.
33:00Got myself a little snack.
33:04Chocolate malted milks.
33:06You have not lived until you have tried one of these.
33:10Malted milks are like a classic, right?
33:13They're like an old time fave.
33:15Adding chocolate to them is game changing.
33:18They're so good.
33:19Anyway, I'm going to eat some of those.
33:21And Alfie and I are going to watch the newest episode of White Lotus Series 3.
33:27Very exciting.
33:28And I'm going to end the video here.
33:30So thank you so much for watching.
33:32Thank you for being very patient and waiting till February for another upload.
33:37I feel like we gave you a video every day for a whole month and then just like dipped.
33:41But it was really nice to just take a breather.
33:44Go into full hibernation mode.
33:47And now I feel like spring is coming.
33:51And I don't feel so weird and shy about filming.
33:57But yeah, thank you so much for watching.
34:00And I'll see you again very soon.
34:02Bye.
