- Happy belated birthday to you.
- Thank you very much. - Your birthday was last week?
- It was last week. - And you turned 40?
- Yes, I did. - Well, happy 40th birthday
to you. - Thank you very much.
Thank you very, very much. - How does that feel?
- It feels...it really feels fantastic, actually.
I mean, I have to say, I was gearing up to it.
I was getting ready for it, and I feel like I--
I've earned these 40 stripes, you know?
Yeah, I-I made it.
Does anyone else have that feeling?
You get to 40 and you're like, "Yes!
I'm there!"
[applause]
I really do have that feeling.
So, yeah, it's lovely.
- Oh, good. Well, you look great.
- Thank you. - And so, what did you do
for your birthday? I know that
you didn't want gifts. You asked--
there was a request you made. What did you want?
- Pigs.
- Pigs, how many pigs? - Two pigs.
- Well, that's not two. Um...
[laughter]
- How many is it? - You're gonna sit with them
over there. - I am, aren't I?
- All right.
'Cause I said, "How many pigs?" and you went, "Two."
- I went, "Two." - Yeah.
All right.
- I did go, "Two." - So--so--
- So, two. - Two babies.
- Two pigs. - Uh-huh.
- Mabel and Sox, their names are.
- And are they pot-bellied or are they--?
- They're pot-bellied. They're six months old.
- And-- - We're re-housing them.
- Male and fe--oh, you're gonna give them to somebody else?
- No. - You said "re-housing."
- No, no, we've taken them from somebody else who had an injury,
so that's quite nice. - Oh, that's great.
- Yeah. - Is that the only animal--
'cause you live in England, right?
- We live in England, yes we do.
We live near the water, near the ocean, so that's fabulous.
We have chickens. - Oh, that's great.
- Yes. - Chickens and now two pigs.
- Chickens and two pigs. - Uh-huh, right.
- Yeah, we have eight chickens and three pigs.
- Eight chickens? - Yeah, yeah.
Eight. - Yeah.
So you have eight chickens and two pigs.
- Yes we do. - And how many children
do you have? - Oh, well, let me see.
Three? - Uh-huh.
You have three kids. - I have three children.
- And how old are they now?
- So, Mia is 15. Actually, today she's 15.
- Wow. - Yeah, she's 15.
And Joe is 11, and baby Bear is 22 months.
- Bear. - Yeah, the baby Bear.
- He's two years? - He's 22 months,
so he'll be two in December.
- Wow, that's great. - Yeah.
- And what are they into?
- Well, Bear is into climbing on my head and everything else.
- Mm-hmm. - And he's actually
a very funny, really happy baby,
so it couldn't be better.
He was so sweet on the plane coming here, actually.
My husband took him into the bathroom
to change his diaper, and he came running back,
and it was as though he literally hadn't seen me
for about a week, and he went, "Mommy! Funny!"
[laughter]
- We were talking about where you live.
Is--is it a farm?
- No, it's not a farm, but we do live--
- You have land? - Yeah, we have a little bit
of that, but really a little bit of land.
- Right. - It's not much at all, and--
- But you're gonna garden, I heard.
- Well, you know, I've got to be honest.
Every year there are two things I say, right?
"This year, I'm gonna learn how to speak French and to garden."
And then I do neither.
And then the year comes around, I go, "Right, this year,
I really am gonna learn to speak French and how to garden."
And then it doesn't happen again.
But this year, I actually really am.
I actually really am going to learn how to speak French,
and to garden. And to garden.
- Why don't you just choose one
so it's not overwhelming?
- Well, I can't really do things in ones.
I tend to do them in twos or threes.
I'm a bit of a multitasking lunatic like that.
- I see, which is why you have three kids.
- Which is why I have three kids.
- Yeah. All right, so,
I have a birthday gift for you.
And this--you have no excuse now...
- Okay. - To--I don't know
about the French.
[cheers and applause]
- Oh, stop it!
Oh!
[laughs]
- Wait-- - Don't leave, don't leave.
Can he stay? - He can stay.
- Yeah. Can you--
Are you going to do the teaching?
- I'm with you, yeah. - Okay.
He's gonna do the teaching. Okay, that's--
- Yeah, this--that's Nick the Gardener.
He takes care of our plants here.
But if you want to borrow him, that's fine.
- Does he--does he do the gardening...
- She loans me out every so often.
- Like this doing the plants around here?
- He takes care of my bushes just like that.
- Does he?
Is that right, El?
Is that right? - Are there gloves there?
- I'm glad I came dressed as a priest today,
that's all I can say. I tell you.
This is amazing.
Oh, look!
- You have your little gloves.
- They have my name on. - Yeah.
- Oh, wow. - And now it's up to you
to learn French, but all that is yours.
Happy birthday. - Oh, my goodness.
Look at that. - All right.
- That is really something.
"Winslet's wheelbarrow," it says on the side.
- And the wheelbarrow.
- Oh, my gosh!
Thank you so much. Thank you so much.
- You're welcome. You're welcome.
