00:00fine, completely fine and I had the children, Saskia and the babies over for lunch and I was

00:05completely fine and not anything wrong with me at all and then suddenly I got this pain and it was

00:13just absolutely extraordinary. I've never had anything like it and I'd given birth to two

00:17children naturally, never had any pain like that in my life. I was suddenly went from completely

00:22normal to doubled over in proper agony and I was meant to be presenting a show on LBC from

00:29six till nine and I normally am quite a trooper at this stuff. I normally could be ill, take a

00:33couple of paracetamol and just rock on but there was nowhere I could so I just couldn't. So anyway

00:39I luckily managed to get seen at hospital quite quickly, thank god, because I was just in agony.

00:45I couldn't sit down, I couldn't lie down, I didn't know what to do, you know, that pain's like

00:52absolutely astounding. Anyway I bet you've probably guessed what it was if you've ever

00:58been through it, you'll know. A kidney stone, never had one in my life before, never, and it was

01:05extraordinary. Anyway they finally managed to scan me and everything was five millimetres

01:11and so they operated. So I was, we could truthfully say, rushed into the theatre and

01:18a beautiful neurologist operated on me and now here I am all tripped up

01:25but feeling considerably better than I did last night, I can tell you that for nothing.

01:31So morning to anybody who suddenly found themselves in hospital yesterday when they're having a

01:36completely normal day, I send all my love. Sorry I look so rough, I haven't got any makeup or anything

01:42like that, didn't have a chance to gather any up. Anyway definitely feeling appreciably

01:48better than I did last night. Apparently they had to nuke it with a laser, they had to

01:53blast the stones, it was so big that they couldn't have got it out any other way or

01:59something like that, I didn't really like to picture it to the truth.
