00:00So what's he coming over for? Why have you got Oli over again?
00:02I think I'm going through the menopause.
00:04You think you are?
00:05Yeah, I think I'm definitely going to, like, perimenopausal.
00:08I'm so...snappy.
00:11I don't feel like snappy's the only...
00:13Alright, I'm snappy.
00:15No, that's mostly the main syndrome.
00:17But also I'm tired.
00:19I think you've got to remember, right?
00:20I'm snappy and tired.
00:21You've got 18 children, 17 dogs,
00:2445 chickens, ducks,
00:26what else is running around the house?
00:28You work full-time.
00:30You've got a really busy life.
00:32Yeah, but I wake up tired.
00:34I have eight hours sleep, right?
00:36I have the best night of sleep of my life, every night.
00:38And I wake up, I'm exhausted.
00:40Bless you.
00:43Does she have hypochondria?
00:45100%.
00:47I think we both have it, to be honest with you.
00:50It actually probably helps us to both have it
00:52because we have each other to bat off of.
00:54So, you know, she can come to me and say,
00:56oh my gosh, I'm dying.
00:58And then I can come back to her and say,
00:59no, you're not, because I'm dying.
01:00So then we kind of distract each other with each other's thoughts,
01:02which can be quite helpful.
01:04If you could test tolerance, mine would be at its all-time low.
01:07I mean, I definitely think, look, if you're not happy
01:09and you think something's wrong,
01:10you should always get it checked out, like a million percent.
01:12If I compare what you're thinking menopause is
01:15compared to what I think menopause is...
01:17You think you're having menopause?
01:18I think I definitely am.
01:19Why?
01:20Because my periods are all over the place.
01:22I think we've always, in the back of our heads, known,
01:25because, like, on mum's side, the menopause came early.
01:28We've always known it's likely to come early for us.
01:31Like, it does follow.
01:32If I'm going through the menopause and that's it for me,
01:35no more children, then I think animal sanctuary.
01:39Don't you think?
01:40OK.
01:41Maybe find out why you're tired first.
01:43Yeah.
01:44Because once your animal sanctuary is up and running
01:46and you say, I'm just so tired, I'm so snappy and emotional
01:49and I just have no idea why, but I've got 85,000 animals on site.
