Relax. The Grapefruit Are Coming

The foreign language fails are still flying in. From a coffee order in Greece (black, but no courgette), to the summoning of the pamplemousse for a cyclist injured in France.

The murmuration is fecund with stories this week but the foreign language fails are still flying in. From a coffee order in Greece (black, no courgette), to the high drama of an Ibizan caretaker being told that the washerwoman had died (it was the washing machine), and the summoning of the pamplemousse for a cyclist injured in France.

Juliet from Weybridge suggests a signal for listeners to identify one another (lock eyes and simply state: 鈥淚 skate鈥). And this week鈥檚 task is to wish Cheryl Christina Tarbuck a very happy birthday. Because she鈥檚 a strong Aries woman, who can feed an army at the drop of a hat (and Liza was a tiny bit tardy with her felicitations).

The playlist includes the glorious vocals of Fontella Bass and the charming Tim Minchin. 成人快手r Banks gives it some welly, and there's some 90s nostalgia courtesy of Sabrina Johnston and Soho鈥檚 Hippychick.
