Like creating that capsule amount of stuff together.

Exactly.

Rather than just, yeah, bringing stuff from the past.

So actually starting fresh is so cathartic, isn't it?

Hugely.

Right.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful book.

Let's move on to your second box.

Let's see what is in the second box.

Oh, I mean, this is super cute.

So I have got the most beautiful big brown eyes staring out at me.

And this is a lovely, looks like a very old teddy bear.

Not only is he brown and has these lovely brown eyes and that lovely worn look that only a teddy bear that you've had for years has, but he's got the cutest little waistcoat on, this Czech waistcoat, which is a little bit worn around his arms, which feels like he's been quite active and he's worn away his waistcoat because he's been so pulled around.

Did someone make this bear, number one, and did someone make his waistcoat, number two?

So tell me who this is and why he's so special.

Thomas.

He's just not on the bed, but he's on the dressing table.

Yes.

What was your childhood like in Ireland?

That must have been quite scary as well.
