The Mum in particular is driving me nuts, why is she crying because this other lady has a picnic tea?

This is why I rarely watch reality TV. I want to shout at them.

" Thinking about whatâ??s best for their young children, Gemma and Chris reassessed their plans to emigrate after returning to the UK.  Although itâ??s taken some time to come to a decision, as of December 2013 Gemma and Chris have decided to stay close to their family support network in the UK.  Nevertheless, Chris is still in touch with the head teacher he met in Adelaide and they hope to pursue a move once Maddie and Oliver are slightly older."

Have Sky+ed for tomorrow. Missed todays but will try and catch up on Iplayer.

I always wonder what happened to the woman from last series who was so horrid to her husband and said she would go without him if he didnt want to leave his family. She was cold! I hope he left her.

Ha ha I saw this on this morning (had the dentist so recorded it) and I thought of you lot.

I will set it to record all week but the bummer is I am only home Monday and Friday mornings now so will have to join the banter later in the day.

I watched a bit of this today and it constantly amazes me that people think that you can't have family days out in the UK and / or that in Australia you don't have to work a full week . When she was going on about this being the most time they'd spent together since Christmas I was literally shouting at the telly that if you had a weeks holiday in the UK you'd be spending the same amount of time together ,what is the matter with people .

Ooh I do love a bit of Wanted Down Under. Will have to watch on catch up. I went through a phase of wanting to move to Oz a few years back.

ha ha ha I just love the way we are all sooooooo judgy judgy!!!

Did anyone from Birmingham watch today??? Did the accent make you cringe??? Was it just because I am not a brummy or did she have a very very very strong accent?

I find when I watch people from my home town with a strong accent I find myself cringeing for them!! Grin
