Jan is back for a catch up and this week it’s been a BIG week for anniversaries! It’s Jan and Dave’s 37th wedding anniversary, and Jan bought some sexy lingerie for a saucy night in! Meanwhile Luke and his partner with no name celebrated 10 years together - but did Jan get them a card? No, she did not, but she HAS been buying something… CHRISTMAS PRESENTS(!) And Luke has been at Manchester Pride doing cartwheels in the club with his unhinged pals. So, just a normal weekend then! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Luke & Jan sing Don’t Cha - with some slighty alternative lyrics… And in breaking news - Jan can’t do the splits. Plus, there’s pissy knickers on the log flume and why peeing in the shower is good for the environment. Oh, and Luke was 16 before he got pubes. You’re welcome. Hosted on Acast.
