Author and columnist Lucy Mangan (AKA ‘Boogaloo’) and her IT-whizz little sister Emily Thomas (AKA ‘Minefrog’) are very, very different. Brought up in Catford by their indomitable "displaced Northerner" mother and their introverted father (nicknamed 'The Potato'), Emily remembers their mother making Lucy's bed with her still in it, nose stuck in a book. Lucy recalls Emily never sitting still, and always embarking on projects and adventures. In this episode they talk about making friends, being introverted or extroverted, getting one over on your sister – and the complex and numerous Mangan House Rules. Lucy's terrific new book 'Are We Having Fun Yet?' is out now. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
