We are Simon & Lorra. A married couple. Mum & Dad to three kids... One in his 20s, one at uni, one fast approaching her teens. We love each other to bits but we also realise that we want to kill each other a lot. One day that quote will probably be used against one of us in a court of law. Each episode, we'll chat about our marriage, love life, kids, London, relationships, anything relevant in the news and we'll recommend anything we've seen, played, read or listened to.
