So we decided to put our love language to the test, literally and we were shocked by what came up!have a listen as we deep dive into why Nicola is not going to be a Real Housewife- at least in dating anyway!
Oh lordy, this is a mish mash of chat, we hope though some of you understand what we mean in this!We chat our timelines, the toxicity out there and why we need some of our fave famous men to stay perfect!We also discuss the Garron incident, and this was recorded before he returned to social media. All of this is just our opinion.
Who knew you could send voicenotes on Hinge? And WHY OH WHY would you?Nicola updates us on her bingo card antics and Ro talks the place to go for Valentine's.... if you fancy 2 for 1 margs
This time round, to mark 5 years since we started this, we listened back to the 2 girls who started the podcast and found they were a lot more optimistic about dating than us 2!
