"Gerry, shut up"
And much worse besides was being shouted at the Teeman TV set this morning as I watched the repeat and the Gurus make their decision. I am not very happy. Note that Carole was utterly ungracious as Gerry fell on his mighty, throbbing Greek sword. No apologies for her sniping and horribleness. Atrocious. Unbelievable. And Gerry just wouldn't shut up with his "Vote me out" madness. As well as "shut up", I was also shouting, "What has she gone through?" "Why should she have the money?" Like McCall said, we want the winner to have entertained us, not just be a charity case. I am a bit of a BB purist. I occasionally scour the tabloids but I quite like the housemates and how I vote and feel about them to be restricted to what I see on screen. Really. Funny, I guess. So, heartless as it may sound to those of you who know Carole's "circumstances", I couldn't give a rat's arse what she's been through - in terms of winning this competition. She's a bad housemate, bad to watch, bad entertainment and BAD TO OUR GERRY. And for this she must not be allowed to win. Gerry - lovely in final interview. But no mention of pants. I was hoping for a special film bit of Gerry and his pants. Daphne, truce over; it's a race to see who gets the first museum visit.
Help... now a final fortnight with a houseful of halfwits. This will take fortitude, but Gabrielle, come back. We've come this far. I'm coming to get you...


Poor old Gerry, the sadly misguided fool. He was doubtless expecting for him and Carole to indulge in a round of “Evict Me”, “No, evict me”, “Honestly, I want to go”, “It’s okay, I should leave” etc etc ad nauseum. So when he stood up to make his “I’m Spartacus” announcement, he looked to Carole to do the same. Instead, she sat back on her lardy old arse and said, “Yep, he’s Spartacus, good old Sparty. See ya”.
Anyway, judging by those screaming Borehamwood harpies in the audience last night, I fear Liam may have this thing in the bag.

Been on holiday. Can't believe the latest; Daphne, my thoughts are with you. We have been screwed over by C4 yet again. Carole is a sad old woman, who, if she had got off her big flabby arse in the first place and got a job like the rest of us, then she wouldn't be such a sorry sad charity case, NO sympathy!!! Arrrrrrrgh!!!!

While having brekkie this morning ( more than 2 bits of burnt toast, Witch), I decided to have a poke around the 'net to try to find out why she thinks, and has brain-washed other HM's into thinking, she should get the money. So far it seems she is telling everyone she is going to be evicted, from her house. She can't afford to go to get her hard skin on her feet seen to. She is in thousands of £'s of debt after re-doing her kitchen, bathroom and buying a 7 seater car to use when she fostered/adopted 3 children. The fostering/adoption 'fell through'. She has been asked, and offered cash, to move to a smaller house as she lives in a 4 bedroomed house and the council wants it for a family. She won't go as she 'likes her space'.Can't be arsed cleaning it more like. Therefore she is in rent arrears because they only payout the amount she needs to live in a smaller house. She kicked her daughter out at age 16 (don't know why), and has told Barry-Louise she is better off not working.
In The Daily Star Gerry has said he has to go back to Greece because he WAS evicted from his home, he has no job and he can't sign on because he hasn't a address. (I could put Mr. D under the stairs).
She shouldn't be allowed to force her sob story on HM's, much as I dislike her, Krusty lives in a caravan and works. 8 years Carole has been trying to get on BB. 8 years she could have spent trying to sort out her mess.
Tim, I went to 2 museums in the last week and I don't think we have any more to go to.
Don't go Gabrielle, you've made it this far. Chin up everyone we'll still get to see her evicted.
You know the way the girls always do Nuts etc. What do the males do?....Just idle wondering you understand.....

God, how predictable was that! As you said Tim, if only he wouldn't have opened his gob and persuaded the twins to vote for him (They're so gullible) he may have stood a chance Carole pissed off about everyone in the house the last week and loosing them te luxury shopping budget would have been an easy excuse for a kick up the unmissable arse
Just for the record Mr. Stoat, and for Gerry's sake, I hope the line-up for blow-jobs are hunky guys or whateve his type are - and lots of them - well deserved!
Tim, Daphne, my sincere condolences. Not sure how you're planning to bag this handsome Greek now but please, do keep us updated. I thought he looked rather dishy last night (especially without Freddie) so - let the battle commence

Well ... I may take the odd peep at BB8, from behind the sofa, when Carole is in full screeching rant. God, she'll probably be more demented than ever now, with the dichotomy that obviously the public loathe her but, as she sees it, the housemates love her. Ha!
Now, for those of us who are sorely missing the delightful and cheering sight of the gorgeous Gerry in his pants, may I recommend you get hold of the video/DVD of 'The Swimmer' and feast your eyes throughout on the amazing (unfortunatley, late) Burt Lancaster in a tiny pair of swimming trunks throughout. WARNING: Do not watch this film if you are feeling depressed.

There is a solution. How can we get word to Carole that the activists at Heathrow need a drudge? Her rudeness there would be interpreted as urgency and importance and then we would be spared her pathetic tears and domestic martyrdom every night.

I caught a bit of the live prog after Gerry had done his Captain Oates and Fungus the Housemate was wandering around spouting that Gerry had wanted to go so he'd get interviews and the like during the last two weeks of the show. Ungratious so 'n so couldn't ever bring herself to acknowledge that The Fair One had done something selfless for her.
I'm now off to foreign parts (Mrs HGFC booked the dates) and have the option of spending a fortune checking this blog but without actual access to the program. Luckily, being ill informed has never prevented me from holding forth at length

Couldn't sleep last night so I started to count housemates in the hope that would send me off. There have been 24 this year, 15 women and 9 men. Little wonder that it has been such an unbalanced affair. So many damp squibs: the £100k giveaway, the 'hidden' room, Fake Week (remember Pauleeeen), HND, Gerry's unjust eviction...I could go on and on. We all deserve medals for sticking with it for so long. What has been missing most of all is humour: a grown man farting loudly and discoursing with stuffed toys is not amusing, neither is 10 weeks of twinny pink bouncing ('defo') or Tracey's perma-scowl. I am off on holiday next weekend and so will miss the last knockings - something which bothers me not.

Now she's said that Gerry only got cheers because of Freddie! And she's giving all his stuff away.
I promise not to mention Carole for the next week..... no... 2 days. OK, next 2 posts.
Maybe I'm just bitter and twisted, but does anyone else find Brians 'wooing' of Amanda a bit ceepy. It makes me squirm - and not in a good way.
Thanks for kind words. Trying to be brave. Mr. D is looking for a slap mind, he's taking too much delight at lack of Gerry/pants.
Happy hols. Lucky sods, no Carole,...dammit... I nearly managed.

If they'd have kept to the normal voting system crones like Tracey & Carol would've gone long ago.
What on earth are they doing there?
I hated it when they started buggering about with the format a là rich/poor divide in series 3. A mistake.
I remember when every housemate had read Richard Branson's 'Losing My Virginity'.
Now we're just stuck with mongrels losing their pride.

I know they've all been in there a long time and their brains are obviously quite mushy, but, PLEASE, do you think the HM's recognised and compared the huge cheers when Gerry came out to the immense Boooooos when eviction was life for starters and realised the negatives were meant for Carole? And even if they aren't aware, I really hope Carole realises her days are numbered?
Can't wait for nominations in the hope the HM's can vote in the knowledge of anonimity for that vicious nasty old bat who got rid of our beloved Gerry against our wishes.
And, whilst I'm at it, this bullocks about her needing the cash; isn't Gerry homeless, jobless and probable be selling the Big Issue if it wasn't for BB?
Excuse my spelling - cannot be bothered to do a spell check - Sorry

Ooo-er, looks like our Tim was right and Paris Hilton may well appear on Celebrity Big Brother! Read all about it:

Nice frock - I must ask Paris who her tailor is.

thanks daphne ... what her life has been like has been really bugging me and now we know she is just living off the state and the state wants her to have a smaller house - not NO house - just a smaller one. watching some live feed at the w/e they started a new 'make me posh' task ... carol is now telling the idiots she's been to henley, met the queen, her granddaughter met the queen last year, she's been to balls - is she on planet fantasy or is this more to fox the idiots with? glad zig is now standing up to her a little bit - watch that space.
