You look lovely today. ....Thank you. See? Not so hard is it? Why is accepting a compliment such agony, why do we curl up like a shrimp the moment someone is nice to us. Why do we insist on shouting 'OH THIS I GOT IT IN A BIN I HATE IT' if anyone so much as looks at our new dress. Stevie and Tessa wrestle with the big ideas and then practice complimenting each other. This is a really good episode. ....Thank you. Subscribe to the Nobody Panic Patreon at patreon.com/nobodypanicWant to support Nobody Panic?

Tessa has become London's premier E-biker. She constantly arrives late, dripping in sweat and needs you to walk with her to the designated parking spot so she doesn't get a fine, BUT she is very enthusiastic about the whole idea.
