The words we can’t say – like subscribe and stertificate! Book sales, how does it work? Mandy’s been a bit poorly – under the weather, there’s lots going around… Our phones pinging – with messages from Mandy’s dad! Penny and her two acres – have we mentioned that? Watching TV – Penny offers to buy Mandy a telly! The Olympics – what have we loved? Do you become armchair an expert on whatever sport you are watching, like Pen?

Good and bad manners – what riles us and what makes us swell with joy? Manners at school and how it used to be in the olden days when we were at school… Have driving manners gone out of the window - see what I did there? And Penny's audition for East Enders... not to be missed!
