Ep 46 - "I don't think I can afford the girls holiday.." | Money, Weddings & Holiday Guilt

I have a bone to pick with you.

Why?

Because I had the girls over and Rachel brought up a memory that I had just buried at the back of my mind.

And I've decided I'm actually blaming it on you.

Why? Because

you're my older

sister

and you knew better.

So for our pre-devs, I can

tell you right now, I did not know any better than anyone at any point in my life.

But go on.

You're nine years older.

You knew better than me at this time.

So it was our pre-devs and the theme was a masquerade ball.

I saw your TikTok on this.

I have no memory of this whatsoever.

And instead of me getting a mask, I drew on, I really poorly drew on a mask on my face.

Stunning.

And went to this pre-debs.

And you let me out of the house like that.

I looked ridiculous.

Everyone else wore the mask for like 30 seconds.

And I was there.

I looked like a raccoon.

I looked like I was dressed as a raccoon.

So I don't remember this masquerade ball at all.

I don't remember being anything to do with having anything to do with this masquerade ball.

I don't think I was in the country.

You were.

I don't think I was.

You were six there.

You were there.

Oh, sixth year.

Sixth year.

I'm pretty sure.

Yeah.

And you lived at home.

I don't think so.

You have

blocked this out of your

memory

as well, because the

guilt that you probably felt watching me go, I can't remember how it came up.

Someone said something like, yeah, it was one of the other girls from London here

presumed that I was a cool girl.

She needs to hear more of your stories.

Yeah.

Well, Rachel burst out laughing.

It was like, she painted a mask on her face and went to the masquerade ball.

She had pre-devs.

She was a loser, just like us.

So I blame you, my big sister, for letting me leave the house like that.

And mum, actually.

And dad.

I got a lift.

I got a lift to this girl's house for pre-drink, for pre-devs.

Well, Circa, I think you're forgetting, though, that when you have an idea, there's no stopping you.

Well, there should be.

I think

if anyone's to blame,

it's Rachel.

For bringing it

up again.

No, surely she was involved.

No.

Surely one of you were deciding what your masks were going to be.

And then I actually, I blame you and mom.

One of you should have gone, I'll just go

get you a mask.

Like, I don't think, I don't, I'm not sure that this is the right

choice.

Like it's just from the

woman who's like, everyone's like, are you sure you want to bake your own wedding cake? And you're like, yes, I'm going to bake my own wedding cake.

That's different.

You can't be stopped.

Whatever.

Yeah.

I

feel like comment below if you're on my side or Aoife's side.

I think you should have stopped me.

So I also don't remember that.

So not taking any accountability whatsoever.

I didn't live there.

Guilt does a funny thing.

I think I need a new laugh.

Oh, okay.

What do you want your new laugh to be?

Nicer sounding.

Do you ever listen back to the pod and you're like, oh, gross sounding laugh.

Oh, I think it's more, I don't, I'm not an audible laugh.

No. as long as I'm putting it's all silently like cackling hyenas and I'm like on the video it's funny but on a you can watch this on YouTube by the way but audibly it's just 10 seconds of quiet yeah exactly

exactly I always remember as a kid being kind of poked fun at it for it because you know you'd just be like laughing silently and then it'd be like laughing That's my laugh.

Yeah.

Never

grew out of it.

I like it.

Good.

Well, if you're happy, I'm happy.
