The One Where We Eventually Talk About the World Cup

I very kindly got invited down to a pub called The Pump House in Bristol by Called Kitchen, so this is an extra shout-out to them.

Thank you.

For me and my lovely friends to go down and try their roast dinner, and have some Bristol Beer Factory pints, and have dessert as well, which I could actually eat, um, which as a girl with intolerances, doesn't come around very often.

Um, but it was such good food.

I ate so much.

But it made up for the fact that yesterday I got absolutely smacked in the face by a bee, and half my face is swollen.

Yeah, I wasn't gonna mention that, but I was gonna say, your eye's looking a little bit puffy.

It literally was seconds before I was getting back in the car.

Bee flew into, like, the corner of my eye.

I was like, "Hang on, Barry.

Get out." Started trying to, like, hack him out.

Like, n- not aggressively, but, like, you are trying to dig into my eyeball, and it kind of hurts.

And then whilst trying to get it out, it stung right under my eye, and it hurt so much, but it was a really small bump.

So I was doing commentary on the second T20 between England and India yesterday.

I was like, "This is fine," you know? "It stings a little bit." Woke up this morning and was like, "Why does my face feel like I've just gone under major dental surgery?"

To be fair, it looks better than what it did earlier when we did try to record-

[laughs]

... and then we had a complete technical mishap, and we couldn't.

But yeah-

[laughs]

...

it looks better.

At least, I'm actually glad we're recording now because your eye's looking a lot better.

[laughs]

My voice doesn't sound like I've smoked 40 in a day.
