Hi ladies, I just listened to the story from the listener who was trying to deal with worms for her child. Hate to do one up manship but I had a smiliar though sooooo much worse experience. In true pre holiday fashion I noticed my 12 yr old son paying way to much attention to his rear end. Not wishing to be the family in the resort pool with the kid scratching his bum every 2 seconds I made a last minute dash to the GP to get medication. Felt so proud of myself for sorting it out at the last ..
quite an interesting chat there with @jeAnEyGodly #offairwithJaneandFi @FifiGlover

Removed the Huw Edwards episode I see…perhaps Jane and Fi will think twice about gushing all over an individual…
I just cringe at the adverts - gosh - they are so awful!
I'm unsubscribing from this podcast. Very disappointed by the impact of the move into the commercial sector. Really dislike the ads and the whole context is much, much less interesting. It's like losing good friends, who turned out not to be the people I thought I knew.
