And to be honest, last time I tried to change a light fitting, stupidly, I did it at night.
So I was plunged into darkness and I nearly blew myself up.
So, yeah, and I miss my dad, you know, when he died at 80, had Parkinson's, was really hard at the end.
And they always say, you know, after time, your memories of him fit and healthy replaced the later memories of him struggling.
But actually, I still am stuck with thinking of my dad really suffering when he was ill.
So, you know, this is a lovely thing.
So that brings you joy.
It brings me a lot of joy to think my dad is still with me, yeah.
It's in my, well...
In the basement.
So, okay, now there's a reason for you to visit the basement.
Natalia has not seen my toolbox.
Okay, yeah.
All right.
So, I was talking to someone recently about how...
Who was it?
It was a conversation I was having that was so interesting about all we ever do is to try to impress our dads, even though they're not with us.
It was Kezia Gill.
And she got in touch with me and said, do you want to come see me perform in Islington, London?
And then she sent the band off the stage and she said, you know what, when I'm with you on my own, there's only one song I want to sing.
