Oh, the suspense. You never know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

But generally it means there's been a delivery.

I just realised that this is probably the most unflattering angle that I could film myself at.

Apparently I should hold it here. [Jessica laughs]

But that's effort because I have to extend my arms above my head and it's very early.

And it's my birthday I should be lying in bed...

Well it's not really morning anymore. It's kind of morning.

So today is the big day! My wife is officially 30 years old.

Later on I have arranged a little surprise for her.

Tilly's attempting to eat my straws, she always does this

And then later on we have a surprise where I've arranged to get our hair and makeup done.

Which she's either going to really like or really dislike.

I guess everyone's on a scale right? Of femininity to masculinity

Although I don't know if masculinity is even the right term.

So some days she's a massive tomboy, she doesn't want anything to do with girly stuff

She hates having her hair blow dried but she quite likes having a blow dry.

I think she'll very much like the outcome. I don't know whether she'll like having her hair and makeup done.

I thought whilst we're here, I'm putting together my little bag for this evening. I thought I would show it to you.

This is my little clutch bag, it is adorable, it's velvet.

I'm not sure if you can tell but it's a sort of silvery grey.

It's beautiful. It's actually gun metal I would say.

So I've had this bag for a number of years. It's a good tried and tested one.

Generally I do prefer a bag with a strap or handle.

But tonight we're going to a pub...It's probably a restaurant actually.. with friends

We've got a little area so I can just put it down and not worry about it.

And then afterwards we're going on to a bar, but there are quite a few of us so I feel quite safe in having a bag that doesn't have a strap.

It will be okay, I will hold on to it or I will put it down on a table surrounded by our friends.

And I will show you what's in my bag for this evening.

Next thing. Oh this is pretty obvious, again. Tiny little purse with cash in. Cash is important.

I don't like taking my bank card out with me because you could lose your bank card. If you lose some cash it's sad but it's not the end of the world.

This one again, it's quite obvious. My pills. I've obviously already taken this mornings pills.

I'm going to take these before we go out.

And then there are these ones that I'm going to be taking while we're out.

And yeah look, there's an adorable little sticker there!

I tend to take paracetamol and ibuprofen out with me because they hit different pain

Cause it depends on where my pain is coming from

Um, I try to take as few painkillers as I can in a day because I already take painkillers as part of my daily medication

So the extra painkillers I only take when I really have to.

Generally, everyday is incredibly painful

But some days I'm more painful and then I just bring it back down to incredibly painful

Oh! This is vital. This is absolutely vital. Squeezy squash!

As someone who cannot have alcohol or sugar your range of drinks at a bar are incredibly limited

But also like soda water, so I guess it's three things

And it can get a bit dull so to jazz it up I take my squeezy squash with me.

It's brilliant. It's sugar free, they have it in all different types of flavours, different brands do them, some supermarkets do their own.

Personally though, I'm a big fan of the Robinsons apple and blackcurrant

I only get squeezy squash when it's on offer too. I'm not that stuck up

Gonna move on to some more fun elements here

A comb! Why is this fun? It is. Trust me, okay?

When your hair starts looking a little bit flat later on in the evening you've got the comb here

Or your ends are looking a little raggedy, give them a little brush. Delightful!

I hate when someone whips out their phone

That's totally not true. I am not that girl. I will stick my face in any photo regardless!

And it has a pointy end which you could use as a weapon.

And no ones going to take it away from you at the club door because it's a comb

This is a white eyeliner. That might seem like a strange thing to take on your evening but I actually think it's vital because as the evening goes on

You're gonna be getting a little, you're going to be looking a little tired and red in the eyes

So your white liner is gonna really help your eyes pop
