I have NEVER watched a programme that is spinned out as long as this one. It could have been over 20 minutes ago. Fewer shots of pools, less crying, cut to the chase - I'm going crazy here.

I think her husband is going to be in a bit of shock living with her moaning 24/7.

On a more sympathetic side, I do think she should see a doctor about her mental health. Poor woman seems to be finding everything difficult.

Lollybrolly · 01/02/2013 09:56

yup

Vagndidit · 01/02/2013 09:57

God, she is a right mess.Hmm

DreamsTurnToGoldDust · 01/02/2013 09:57

Er say hello to mother!

MunchkinsMumof2 · 01/02/2013 09:57

Was that her Mum behind?

Lollybrolly · 01/02/2013 09:57

after years of heartache...

Really??? A bit over dramatic there!!!!

EightToSixer · 01/02/2013 09:57

who is the random woman doing the trolley pushing. like a sherpa

SconeInSixtySeconds · 01/02/2013 09:58

Um, yes, it looked like it!

MrsJREwing · 01/02/2013 09:58

She needs a lot of support, I wonder if they stay there?

What a very Dark house in Secret Harbour, better garden but not that great, a pool certainly helps. Just saw the end, blinking DH wanted to talk to me so I had to pause and look interested! I don't suppose her folks will move there if they have other children with their grandchildren. If not, maybe they will? That is her mum pushing the other trolley, she seems to be at her beck and call, that will be a big change

I knew I should have logged on when I was watching :)

I'm glad they went, I didn't think she would. Wonder if she lasts. I wonder if any of them log onto MN??
hope they do and wave hello

If you are slightly annoyed now you may well want to practise the good breaths in for the rest of it, Sparkling Wink

FGS what is the obsession with pools?

Er it's really hot

Oh right. It never looks it on this show. If I had a pool I would want an indoor one without leaves in it.

OP posts:
MunchkinsMumof2 · 02/02/2013 10:41

I know and as Aussie posters have said, there's not many months you can swim as either too hot or winter!

Mosman · 02/02/2013 10:45

We don't have a pool as I have a non swimming two year old but as soon as he can doggy paddle we will want one, I agree I would get sails put over it and solar heating too but I definitely want one if we're staying.

I just wonder if the novelty would wear off after using it constantly to start with. I guess there are maintenance costs too.

This Mum is a bit on the edge. Sad

I thought the "I need to be a big girl" comment was very telling.
