Doh! Stupid: Mel said, 'My mother, I haven't seen my father since I was 11, so that's it'.
Anna said, 'I don't want to speak about family. But I will. They put me through music lessons. Dad worked hard to keep us seven kids. Mum worked hard at home equally. My father was most influencial on me'.
Darren said, 'Mum taught me independence.. Not to rely on women to look after me, clean up after myself and to cook'. Caroline said, 'We thank God and Joyce'.
Craig said, 'My father died when I was 13. My Mum taught me when are where to be respectful. She worked hard. Liked me to be independent.
Nichola said, 'My Mum and Dad are very different. I have a similar temper to my Mum. Not to let people take control. Dad was a quiet man. Mum taught us different things. I feel like I was brought up by aliens and adopted by my parents later on'.
Nick said, 'I was the youngest boy. My mother taught me the emotional side. My Dad the action side. To be on time. To be reliable and let people know where you stand'.
Caroline said, 'It was very difficult for Mum. We were hard up. Dad was, is an alcoholic. Mum worked really hard. Her strength is amazing. Talking of her sisters as well, we've all had careers. She taught us how to achieve. There was so much love. I spent my younger years hating my father. I've got over hating him now. He was weak, an addict. His influence was negative. You should see the distruction it causes. I've got to know my Dad more over the past couple of years. I don't call him Dad. I call him Michael. That's my way of coping with it. Dad read me a beautiful piece of poetry. After he had read it, he told me that he had written it. I was surprised by his creativeness'.
Mel said, 'My Mum brought me up. I was a bit of a handful. She is very influential on me. Her strength, independence and will'.
Nicky said, 'A big thank you to Mum and Dad for getting me through my degree, when I was a complete nightmare'.
My sound feed suddenly disappeared. I waited for 3 hours for it to come back up. I was chatting to a fellow BB addict about my lack of sound. She suddenly informs me that she has sound. I thought 'Damn'. I reset the computer and heaven, sound returns. I can't believe that I sat there for hours with a hiss in my ears. Duh! How stupid I am.
Amazingly Nichola and Caroline are still up talking, the rest have gone to bed. Caroline is talking of her tortured childhood. They both discuss what they did as kids, where they like to go drinking. What they get up to back home. Such a refreshing conversation from plotting and scheming of other nights.
There are strange noises coming from the boys bedroom. Someone is snoring.
Talking about Friday's eviction. Nichola said to Caroline, 'I hope it's not you. I'm going to put as much power into the universe as I possibly can. I'm gonna do fairy wishes, angel wishes'. She reels a load off.
They stop to have a late night snack of sardines and a hot drink.
Caroline about Brett, 'He'll probably ask why do you wanna stay now? Caroline said, 'If I hadn't been on the hit list, I wouldn't have gone in voluntarily. I wish they wouldn't put me on a pedestal just to knock me off. There is one person that can't stand being around me. They know I know now. It would be nice to sit here and know I'm not on the list'.
The girls wash their hands, clean their teeth and head for bed. Nichola said, 'I bet the people who see our towels on TV think dirty bastards'.
Off to bed they trot. |
