SIDE CHAT (all talk)

Yes, you read the above correctly, we are moving onto volume 4 BUT in this 50+ minute episode we literally only manage less than ten seconds actually reading the diary. The rest will be in episode 5, sorry about that Chief!

So what you will actually hear in this ep is stuff like:

Lily's struggles to dye her hair; my struggles with ancestry.com; how Lily will be a Mac (Apple) girl forever because of Air Drop; the approach of Lily's 10-year school reunion; a bit of Jenny's grey hair history; the Turkish hatred of a draft; how Jenny finished WIFEDOM and more of our thoughts; Lily's Jane Austen binge (her fave is Persuasion, but she also thinks Mr Knightley in Emma 'is such a vibe'. We cover TV (One Day) and film (May-December) and start reading the diary at 53:29 and there's no time left!

Correction: not Erdogan's wife with the sky-high heels that the Queen was bemused by, but the former President Abdullah Gul's wife.
