L.S. and John's Isolation Tapes on BBC Radio 5 Live

Hello everyone and welcome to the second episode of the second installment of Isolation

Tapes for Lockdown 2.0 with me is Ellis James, Fertile. I am John Robbins, as yet unknown

and also Dave Masterman, no longer Fertile. Hello. How does it feel man? I feel slightly

tender. It's day two, well it's Sunday when we're recording this and I had the big op or

the knee operations we've been telling Lila for some reason. He always told us that it was

a knee operation that he went in for but then on Friday as I got home she was looking at

my knee and trying to see what was wrong with the knee so it almost confused him or so.

Now we've told her that Daddy's got a sore willy. Oh nice. So yeah it's Sunday now, had

it done on Friday and I must say pretty eventless. There's not really too much to report.

It all went very well. The doctor who did it said textbook, textbook snipping. Yeah, yeah.

And the rest of it was all textbook as well I'm guessing.

Do you get, do you sort of watch it all or do you look away or can you not see? No.

Was it like clock or courage? They pin your eyes open. I suppose you could watch it.

Why you would want to. How could you watch it? Not work or inch. That's nice. That's nice.

Well you just, you just look, how could you say how could you watch it? Well you just

look down. Oh so there's no, there's no, they put a net up, wasn't they? No, I think fence.

So is, is every, did you look, did you see much? No, I didn't want to look. I was, I was

happy ignorance is bliss with this one, I think they take you willy to you. To me, to keep

that out of the way, I'll tell you what, he was, he was not holding back when he took

the tape off. That was the most painful bit of the whole procedure. David, David. Sweet
