What happens when David calls his mum from Henfield and why does it matter?
Hi. Hi. You all right?
Yeah. Yeah, you? Yeah, sound like you're about to do your fucking PCSs. Yeah, I'm alright. I've studied harder.
We're coming up to Sussex today, so it's all a bit go, go, go. Studying sisters? For one night, and we're staying in Henfield tonight.
Henfield. I've got my Henfield story. Do you want to hear my Henfield story?
Mm-hmm.
Do you?
Really? Yeah. If it's a good one, then yeah.
Well, it's not funny, but I stayed in Hemfield or Village Partridge Green, which I was weighing on about. It's really pretty. We just stayed there for a few nights. And I was in Henfield and I thought I'll phone my mum. And I was on this lane by a big church. And I said, oh, you know, she said, what are you up to? I said, oh, I'm in a place called Henfield. And she went, I was christened there. And I was stood next to the church where she was christened. Why have you told me that?
Have you? Oh, maybe, maybe you have.
But it meant a lot to me. And I went in there and I sat in the church. I imagine my mum was a little baby because she was a war baby. So she was born in Worthington.
60 years ago to that day.
60?
I wanted your mum to go, ooh, that's nice.
What would she say to that? He's an old charmer, isn't he? I'll take it. Tell him, tell David I'll take that. I'll take 60. Wow. I never thought I'd say I missed being 60. Yeah. I thought that was amazing.
Do you want me to go there and have a look at it today? Tonight? Under the cover of darkness?
You can leave... So this is where Stella was, Chris. I love the idea of you just taking her to church. Nice church. Well, that's a bit of a one in a minute. Yeah, it is actually, yeah. Yeah. Because I didn't know that. I didn't know she was... No.
Were you stood next to the church when you rang up?
I was just Charles. I was just walking through. Because Hentfield was the nearest little place to get a co-op or whatever, to get some bits. And I was just having a mooch up the road. Were you by the church?
You haven't just elaborated, so it feels...
Well, I was probably, I could see it.
Okay, well, okay.
I was at the end of the lane, so I walked up it as I was talking to her, and I was like, stood outside it, man.
Yeah.
She was really underwhelmed. She went, are you?
Well, if she's underwhelmed. Well. No, I'm not. I'm not underwhelmed.
It always shocks me what she's underwhelmed by, weirdly.
Yeah, I think I'm like that with my, yeah.
Oh, and then she'll move on and then something will grab her. Oh, that's nice. Hemfield's lovely.
Yeah, well, we've stayed there before. Now we did the marathon, so, yeah.
Oh, very nice indeed. Do you want to talk more about Hemfield or do you want to move on?
No.
In fact, when I hear the word, it bores the shit out of me.
It's quite boring.
It's really boring.
The surrounding area is absolutely beautiful.
It's fine.
Yeah, yeah. No, it's beautiful.
It's beautiful. It's not beautiful. It is. It's not too bad at all.
It's absolutely stunning around there. Parched green.
It's quite flat and just fields and... What do you want? undulations.
Piss off to Cumbria. Well, I absolutely love it.
Yeah, it's good. It feels like it's a little bit too busy than it should be.
What, Henfield? Yeah.
There's quite a lot of traffic down there, through that high street.
That's your bloody obsession, isn't it? The amount of traffic. Yeah. About the people.
Says he wants to go to Senen, where there's no traffic.
You don't wang on about it. I do. I say it like it is on the pod. You say it like it is. Small market towns in Sussex get it in the ear hole.
LAUGHTER
That is about as punky as I get. Do you know what?
Some small towns in Sussex are too busy. Yeah, Ditchling. That's a big point. Since Ditchling is, fucking hell, Ditchling is.
Oh, it's a fucking trash heap.
I always think of Ditchling about, when I go through Ditchling, I imagined it 120 years ago when it was just horse and calf.
Yeah, now look at it. Just go, God, because it's a through place. Yeah, well, we won't go down there. We'll go, we'll take the back way. Yeah, you take the back way and cram it up. Ponds.
You calling my friend's sister a pond?
