00:00If I, you know, remove them from that picture,

00:02it could be quite lovely.

00:04It could be really great.

00:06I could be like fucking weekend breaks

00:08with my girlfriends.

00:09Do you want to be there?

00:11How about that?

00:12I'm loving this for you.

00:13I might be back dancing on podiums before you know it.

00:18Imagine, you're going to actually be a contestant.

00:20You're going to be one of the celebs on Strictly Come Dancing

00:22because you've resurrected your pole dancing career.

00:27A pro, just a pro.

00:28I promise there were no poles.

00:30No poles, just podiums.

00:32Sorry, I lowered the tone.

00:33I'm so sorry.

00:35But yeah, I mean, you know, it could be gorgeous

00:37to just sort of have the chance to do those things

00:38that I've never had a chance to do

00:40because, you know, as a mum,

00:42I've never been away on breaks with my girlfriends.

00:44I've been a mum once in 20 years of being a mum

00:46because they've needed me more kind of thing in my mind.

00:49And I've never put myself first.

00:50I have not.

00:51I don't know many mums who do put themselves first, really.

00:55I wonder if this period of time

00:57is one that you've actually got to make the most of.

00:59Once they go.

01:00Yeah.

01:01Because soon enough, it'll go like a flash, I imagine.

01:04Yeah, it will.

01:04You might become a grandma.

01:06Oh, my God.

01:06Do you know what I mean?

01:07Now, I know we're not there.

01:08True.

01:08We're not there.

01:09But what I'm saying is that you'll be...

01:10But we could be mere, like...

01:11We could be very close.

01:13But you could, you know,

01:14because you've only got a certain amount of years

01:16before that could potentially happen.

01:18Yeah, true.

01:19So maybe...

01:19I wouldn't mind being a younger grandma.

01:20You've got to have a decade

01:21of just cramming in all the stuff

01:24that you'd want to do...

01:25Right, yeah.

01:25...before, you know...

01:26Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:27Because actually, if you think about it,

01:28it's probably going to happen within the decade.

01:29Yeah.

01:30So I need to get a move on.

01:31I'm going to start Googling short breaks.

01:32There you go.

01:34Short European breaks.
