After talking to Tommy we took his advice and went to the sea to release some of our anxieties. We decided to visit the seaside town of Folkestone. What we hadn’t realised is that outside of London, Bank Holidays are sacred, people actually stop working. Whilst this was a wonderful call back to the good old days when rest was a bigger part of our national story, it does not lead to the most exciting day out! However, you cannot say the Katie and I are not troopers and we persevered in finding the joy in taking a little time out.

This was the first indication that Katie was not feeling laid-back as she led me through a detailed critique of this ad.

Katie hated this ad too.

This is on the wall of Folkestone Station. It’s cool, but at the same time it makes you feel like there are hundreds of people trapped within the walls of the station, silently screaming.

A quiet oasis which made me yearn for my own living bench.

Yup, Folkestone is the type of place where they have mosaic QR codes.

Ah! The joy of being by the sea.

Who would have thought that a chip shop would be so stressful.

Katie, before she cracked.

The perfect place to release ons’s anxieties

I have no idea what this is.

This week we spoke to Tommy and Taaka and they helped us explore our supportive sides by guiding our listeners. We dished out some some excellent advice.
