Like, our story is so dull, right?

It's just the exceptionalism is that we've never moved.

I hope you've moved.

So many stories.

No, I still live literally around the corner from my mum.

But it's weird.

Yeah, who can say that?

Because in a weird sort of way, you know, London, like New York, like, you know, other parts of the world has such a kind of movement of people and various sort of histories.

They're really complex and chaotic and...

I was like, dad, tell me, tell me the mundane stories.

Tell me about the horse.

Tell me about the pet dog, you know, like, because I just actually, there was nothing exceptional in the stories of our family, but I knew they were about to be lost.

And so I still have those tapes.

I can't listen to them.

I can't listen to them.

And they're there perhaps for my children to listen to.

But it was that moment, that realization of, can I carry this forward to my children?

Because I don't think I have all the details to do that.

So tell me, Dad, tell me what our story is.

I think it's when a parent dies and I was in the weird situation where my father died and my father was diagnosed with cancer and I gave birth to my son all within a couple of months of each other.
