Life begins at forty. (Original video)
Transcription:
“I went out tonight to get some new trousers and I got two black pairs. This one is a plain black and this is a stripy black.
“However, you’ll notice that the waist size is forty. Now, however much weight I seem to lose from going to the gym. I can just never get my waist size down, and frankly I just don’t know what’s causing it.
“So if you’ve any suggestions, if you’ve any tips, you can let me know.
“Carry on.”

“Gives me another video idea, the Wicker Man. Whereas this… this is only a fraction of the laundry that I have. So I’m going to get this task done today, and I’m going to make sure I check all the pockets because I keep any coins that I find in this tub and, okay it’s not big about £10, £15 maybe but it’s all been from change in the laundry basket over the years.
“I once found, however, £100 folded up in the top pocket of a rather horrible green shirt, but that… I was lucky with that one because that was away to go to the charity shop or possibly into the washing machine. So I’m going to dig through these and see if I find any more treasures.
“Carry on.”

“I’m just going through this big pile of washing… oh, okay, forget the dramatics, but I’m going through the big pile of washing anyway with a very specific purpose in mind, to get rid of any trousers that are not black, such as these rather horrible grey ones and this green muddy shade.
“Why am I doing this? Well, what shirt do you have that goes with either of these colours? Probably not many, whereas black goes with anything, that’s my… that’s one of my favourite colours, certainly clothes-wise.
“Now it’s not that I’m going to get rid of them in the sense of throwing them in the bin, I will give them to a charity shop. I’m not quite sure which one yet, but it’s been a long overdue task because this is the size of the laundry basket, not incredibly big, you could probably fit it on your head.”
