Im not really getting this one, tbh, how can this be a better life rattling around in a big house but no family at all

Ten minutes to go, they're really going to milk this aren't they?

So they've left 2 young sons, a recently widowed Mum, a sick Dad and a little granddaughter, selfish much?

Ooh they're so popular, they're always gettin invited out.

I`m sure you can jet ski in UK

and in the winter

Oh so you can't jet ski in the UK ? All you do is sit in and watch TV . Sad ,sad people .

'We've never ever been without them'.

That's the idea when you have kids.

They don't seem very happy TBH.

Everytime they say Honey Lily I hear Honolulu.

Don't get this. So they are there but now talking about returning?

I've seen people jet-skiing on the Solent in the Winter. Beautiful views and you don't need to spend 24hrs on a plane to do that.

Oh how cute are Young Son and his girlfriend?

I honestly don't get the insistence that te UK has no outdoor activities

Is that Honey Lily's art work on the walls?

I have an outdoor picinic bag and I do barbies in the uk you know

ha ha rain

Mmm BBQ in the rain, living the dream you are.

Honey Lilly just made DH cry!

How sad is standing under an umbrella doing a barbecue !

Ah, you have a sweet dh Passme

Hi. I have Sky + todays but-

Should I watch?
Will I like the family?
Will I care if they go or not?

Right have watched yesterday & today's back to back. Was screaming at mum & stepdad from yesterday's episode. & oh Nicky gets on my tits. How on earth can she come out with the drivel that she does 'great for the family' yeah but not the poor child left behind. I loathe the pseudo mother crocodile tears & all. I don't do Facebook but I would be so tempted to post something on their page if I did.

As for today's I sort of got why they were going as older son wanted to go & they didn't want to find that they left it too late but they didn't seem that happy to me. Each to their own but I couldn't leave my kids.

I can't believe there is such an active thread about this program. Thanks all for giving me my chuckle of the day!

Ooh are you a secret WDU watcher Bue?

It's the watching and tutting that works for me Bue
