This is my favourite episode, I love hearing about the golf trip...I can really visualise it. I've been listening to these since 2006..............starting to get a bit sad when I listen now because of how long ago they were. I was 16 having the best summer of my life when Series 4 aired........I can't imagine a hangover day where I don't lay in bed all day being comforted by these shows

I'm 17 so I'm about the age you were during the summer you enjoyed. What was so great about the summer? I seen your comment and now I'm really intrigued lol.

[@TheCamorra2011]

@@coreymesham-pritchard1988 A lot of things really and it's gonna sound lame as fuck now when I type it out but.. we still had the group of 20-30 friends that you'd hang out with every day just down the park playing football or camping and drinking. Girls were always around and seemed to suddenly find me attractive and my confidence grew - first girlfriend and first heartbreak. A few pubs and bars were known for serving underage people so every Friday it was like a youth club only with beer and that was a LOT of fun. There were some boring days just sat at home on the computer on MSN messenger / Myspace all day but for the most part it was just a lot of fun. It was also still that early 2000s "Jackass" period where it was socially acceptable to be out in public doing silly shit with your pals. Basically to sum it up - lots of friends, lots of girls, going out and having fun with no responsibilities - and no smartphones or social media with people broadcasting everything. I think it's only years later when your life has changed you realise how special that time was. Sorry for the long essay here....how was your summer as a 16 year old?

XD K: So these people are in a restaurant, havin' a lovely meal R: Is one of them short and hairy, totally covered from top to bottom in a space suit, so they didn't know it was a monkey? S: Is it one of the costumers? One of the waiters? K: (...)Can we just say we've had a lovely meal and that.. R: RIght, it's the chef...
