Speaker 1: main sessions, each on different pery symptoms. There's this session

Speaker 2: women think that they know exactly what Perry is like,
Speaker 2: it's a bit of hot flushes and maybe a few
Speaker 2: mood things, right, that is just maybe five percent of
Speaker 2: the story. Did you know that there are so many
Speaker 2: other symptoms and before I tell you what they are,
Speaker 2: let me introduce my really good mate Cas. Mahoney, we
Speaker 2: might have had one or two of these. I've had
Speaker 2: quite a lot of those. Yeah, should we play Peri Bingo?
