Mary accidentally glimpsed a married man's Google search and now she has to pretend to be blind for the rest of her life. Bruna has discovered boxing, and has the Rocky song in her head and a very specific enemy face on the bag. Sally admits she may have cheated at Wordle for family reasons. Cath's driving instructor kept a wooden ruler on his lap, which feels less like a lesson and more like a minor crime. And after Bruna admits to escaping a wellness retreat, Sally rings ones to ask the thing no one else was brave enough to: how often do people run for their lives?

Also, why tiny joys are the ones we hold onto, and one adult son who moved back home and started treating the place like a hotel.

In your ears today: Sally Hepworth, Mary Coustas, Bruna Papandrea and Cath Mahoney.
