      <title>We're Back! With lamb, cinnamon &amp; Alex's Big Lie S2 EP1 </title>
      <description>The girls are back for Series 2! Nav and Alex reunite at Nav's house, joined by Tilly the dog, for a proper catch-up on everything that's happened since we last saw them.

Expect chaotic New Year superstitions (involving cinnamon and pennies taped to a door), strong opinions on Christmas Day meats, the great Boxing Day debate, why Christmas markets are a £14 bratwurst scam, and the genuinely shocking price of mini eggs in 2026. Plus family arguments, Valentine's vs Galentine's, and Nav's full retelling of the 21st birthday she famously didn't make it to.

And somewhere along the way, Alex tries to tell a lie. Did she get away with it? You'll have to listen to find out.

Coming up next week: Alex finally turns 30 (and Nav, nearly turns 40).

Follow us @SimpleLifeHomes on Instagram and TikTok. If you enjoyed the episode, a 5-star review really does help us out.
