Do you need a PA? Well Gemma definitely thinks she does, especially to help with remembering those key dates, birthdays, school runs, food shops...it's not going well currently! Ha ha!
It's not easy being a busy working mum but maybe having some extra help can make it that bit easier? What do you think?

This week is officially dedicated to Alice and her absolute LOVE for utility rooms! It's safe to say Alice is a little obsessed but I kinda get it and can't wait to experience my very first utility room in my new home!
Basically I'll have another place to hide the s**t from the kitchen!

Seriously, how can we have so many camera issues?! And more importantly, how have we only just realised that we don't need to look into the camera as we're only recording audio?! *hit head against brick wall moment*
We'll eventually improve...we think!

Welcome back to this weeks pod! For those that are listening in today, we're discussing whether having a second home or Airbnb property is the right move in today's climate. Is it still a good idea? Would you do it, if you could? Let us know in the comments!
(Side note, this won't be happening just yet for Gemma as she hasn't secretly won the lottery!)

Seriously, why is there always so much laundry?! It feels like a never ending task...as soon as your backs turned, the piles starting to multiply again!
All joking aside, does anyone else wonder why there is so much laundry? I'm sure we're not alone and so, in true Alice and Gemma style, we had to talk about it!
Your welcome!

Can you believe it, we're on a double win over here! Both Alice and I have got new jobs, stepping up our career and moving on to new challenges! Eek! The only downside is we no longer work together BUT, there's no winging from us as we still get to Podcast together of course!
It's a good week!

We can't quite believe that our summer's over and we're back into the normal school routine already...it went so FAST!

Did you just survive the summer or are you hating the kiddies being back at school? Let us know in the comments!

Do you have any breakfast staples in your house? Well Gemma has had the same breakfast for the last 8 years! Yes, you read that right! You could say it’s become a bit of an obsession, drinking her chocolate protein shake which she packs full of various goodies and which her colleagues have lovingly nicknamed ‘sludge’, every morning at her desk…it’s become her absolute go to, so she’s sharing her almost famous recipe with you all! Does anyone else enjoy their own ‘sludge’ for brekkie, or is it just Gemma?!

How many email addresses is too many? One, two…nine?! Well that’s how many Gemma has and alongside Alice’s ‘interesting’ (typing this without laughing!) email name, we’re wondering who else out there might have similar ‘email issues’! Keeping it real, Gemma has them to get new customer deals with companies and Alice’s email address may be from her younger years (it explains the ‘princess’ part of it!)…we’re wondering, does anyone else have similar stories?!

Alice had a rather interesting (or you could say traumatising!) experience recently, when someone thought she was a grandma…safe to say I thought they were completely mad!! It did though prompt Alice into getting her greys covered in order to feel refreshed and left us wondering whether we’ll always be covering our greys AND more importantly…whether we should be careful of what we say to others?! Just a thought!
