It ain’t easy being green & other tales

from Simon Mayo's Confessions

From dodgy baking to disastrous DIY wine, this week's confessions serve up another round of mischief, mishaps, and morally questionable decisions. Loves Hot Fevered Iron shares a confession from a real reverend who politely accepted a weekly homemade cake from a well-meaning parishioner only to secretly bin them every time. Then there's Dave from Grimsby with a Horse with No Name, who sent his dad to the farm shop on a mission for his sister's horse, Hoof Hearted a name that's far more embarrassing when said out loud. Meanwhile, Professor Perilous finally comes clean about a shocking day in his teaching career with Sonic Boom Boy, when a student in his DT class sanded off the top of her finger. And in the truly stomach-churning It Ain't Easy Being Green, Tom recalls his time at an eco-commune, where homemade wine and a compost toilet got horribly, horrifyingly mixed up. In the Not for Broadcast section, the team tackles revenge with a toothbrush, the sheer indignity of being sick into a coat pocket. There's also a heated discussion about punctuation, the mystery of 'market leaves' and a reprise of the Ukrainian drunk geese, which leaves Matt thoroughly baffled.Brace yourself for an episode packed with laughter, gasps and moments you wont forget.
