Glad you're ok and back on the air waves. You brighten my day Abi, you really do 😊.

I agree with all that you've said again today. The covid shit is quietly bubbling away in the background and we know they'll be pushing the jabs and the lies again before too long.

I took my son for his orthodontic appointment at our local hospital today and they're pushing the hand sanitizer and masks again. This makes me so angry. We didn't use the sanitizer or the mask and as we walked towards the clinic, a lady stopped us and thrust a box of masks at us. 'Please wear a mask ' she said and I said 'I'd rather not, thank you'. She pulled a funny face and walked off. I'm not kidding, EVERYONE was wearing one. I couldn't believe it as we were there only one month ago and I'd have said it was 50/50. It will only end when people stop complying. So that really fucks me off Abi, I can tell you. I will never ever comply again.

Question for AAA: do you have a team working with you to produce the fabulous Abi Roberts characters and everything you do? It must take a lot of organisation to write, film, edit etc and to put things on all the different platforms.

Fantastic to have you back. See you tomorrow xx

I think the mask issue depends on the hospital trust. I recently went to Maidstone on a fast track and although signs were everywhere saying wear a mask no one questioned my maskless face. I had a mammogram and a scan with no no one asked me to wear a mask.

Hi there, Abi, me babby. Really pleased to hear your head kicked off that grotty migraine - they sure are yucky. Good to hear you 're back up to speed today.

Sorry to hear about your poorly nephew. It's great that he enjoys your programmes, too. I can't keep up with everything you are doing right now. I really wish you were back on GBNews, maybe alongside Mark Steyn, who's doing a fantastic job trying to draw attention to all the wrong doing going on, and he bravely says he doesn't give a toss that Ofcom is threatening him. I hope he can carry on his sterling work. It's still horribly muggy here in the south east, I have a lingering headache today, but nothing like your awful day yesterday.

Catch you soon, and muchos amore to you and all my friends here! Jan S xx

Yay... you’re back!🥳🥳

Glad that you’re feeling better 👍

How’s Zach doing? Hope he’s also a lot better, that must have melted your heart when he said those things, what a little sweetheart 💙

Hope everyone is ok, weather in Leicestershire has been dry and sunny (ish) .

There’s so many things that fuck me off, far too many to mention 😊

AAA

What’s your favourite perfume?

Did Terry have a favourite aftershave?

I remember the old ones, Lou Lou, Anais Anais,

For the men, it was Kouros and Drakkanoir.

TTFN 😊😊😊

Glad you’re feeling better Abi.

Your nephew sounds like a lovely lad,bless him,how could a 14 yr old boy not enjoy a bit of Duncan McCockin and Fanny Schniffer?! 😂🤔

Everyone’s pissing me off today.....probs started with popping into the Dr’s surgery this morning for hearing aid batteries for my mum.....everyone masked up to fuck,still got the sign asking u to stay back from reception until you are called by the gestapo,still got a load of seats taped off like theres been an incident/murder. Then my mum wasn’t happy that I was moaning about the utter madness of it all....then she proceeds to talk about the day my Dad died,which isn’t great for my tongue biting skills when I know 100% what killed him but am banned by the family from mentioning it. I feel like I have lost them all,they are not the people I know and love,it’s so surreal.....just like Groundhog Day on repeat 🙈😡 My friends are posting holiday pics on our group chat.....2 in Spain and 1 in France FFS boils my piss thinking of them showing their papers & neg tests without a care in the world....not a fucking clue 🙈🤯 and on it went ....i couldn’t wait to get back to my house today and away from everybody,shut the door on the madness,one of those very surreal days where u feel like you are living some really bad dream and wading thru treacle(tbf,it’s like that everyday)but today was x10 for some reason.....it’s all very hard to put into words sometimes isn’t it? Have u guys heard the word scunnered? That’s how I’m feeling today,scunnered. Thank God for Mr Jules,who is my one constant (other than Abi Daily)😂 and I feel blessed to be on this journey with you both 😀❤️

Sending love to u guys and sorry for the rant xx

Rant away , it is surreal . I was reminded of the poem from Ian today when I was being harangued for equivalent.

Never heard of the word scunnered bit I can relate to everything else in your tweet🤗

Expand full comment

SCUNNERED....‘I’m fair scunnered the day’ Scottish,meaning a state of disgusted irritation,world weary,fed up,downtrodden and thoroughly bereft of any lust for life....when these words are too inadequate to signify the magnitude of your slide into shitdom! 😂 so I’m sure u can relate to that too Jan xx

So glad you’re feeling better Abi, great podcast today! Zac sounds like a wonderful young man and he has impeccable taste in comedy, I’m pleased he’s coping well with all of his health challenges my youngest son has health issues too but like Zac he never complains despite endless hospitalisations and invasive treatments.

When I sit and listen to your podcast I find myself nodding in agreement with things you’ve said or shout out “yes Abi, spot on”, I can feel your emotions the anger, rage, or sadness, but whatever you’ve discussed I always end up laughing! I loved your Margaret Thatcher and Liz Trussed-Up I really could listen to your impressions all day.

Question for Friday, - if you had to lose one of your senses which one would you choose?

Hope all is well with the Substack family, 😘

Me too! ...People must think I'm mad as I usually listen to the podcast in the car, and will often shout out "Spot on, Abs.!!" ..or more often than not, bellow " TOO FUCKING RIGHT!!!"

I had covid at the end of March 2021 and lost my sense of smell and taste for 6 months. Then I started to get them back, but everything is distorted and pretty gross. It is frustrating and soul destroying at times xx

Expand full comment

Sounds awful! 6 months is a long time to not enjoy all your favourite foods, I suppose we take it for granted

Expand full comment

sorry pressed send too soon! What I was trying to say was we don’t really think about tasting our food do we? It’s taken for granted, hope you’re back to good health now Louise. x

Catherine, like you I find myself shouting in agreement with everything that Abi says in her podcasts.

Great podcast as usual. The more ranting the better, we are under attack from a ruthless "elite" bunch of evil cunts!

Just signed up to Truth Social, agree it looks much easier to use than Gettr which I am also on. Twitter is dying IMO

To add to my comment on Truth Social, I love it already. Just as easy to use as Twatter, and gosh its so nice to be able to post without the constant fear of getting a ban!

So glad you better. My kid has bad migraines suddenly he is on infusions for colitis so we think they cause it. Terrible for your nephew waiting 5 hrs!! Awful.

Only just tuned in to your Thursday podcast on Friday lunchtime. Brilliant podcast Abi, I’m addicted to them! Lots of swearing in this podcast which I totally approve of!

I have to say I started off the podcast with a Bloody Mary and then went on to a raspberry vodka while listening to you. Then you say you are not drinking atm 😂 do I feel guilty? Bloody hell NO. Going without alcohol has probably brought on your migraine! No seriously, I believe that the low level anxiety that we are all suffering from manifests itself in differing physical issues.

Your nephew Zak sounds a gem. I bet he does get the adult jokes!

Yes Abi, you are an enemy of the State and I would be too if I had as many followers as you. The people that initially worshipped lockdown now want a further 6 month lockdown, stricter than before. No excuses to leave your home not even for exercise🙈

I too love America but unless you live in a Republican State like Texas or Florida then it’s a nightmare. I cannot wait for the T-shirts btw. A photo op of all the Substack family in the Crunt T-shirts on the South Bank would be amazing. Then we will hit the pubs and bars👏🏻

I must look out for Loulou, iconic blue bottle! 💙

CK’s Opium is enjoying a revival , I used to love that in spite of it making me feel sick after about five minutes 😅
