Fancy writing a guest blog post for us? All details here!
I think it's the lavender tea that Bernie offered to Joseph which is making him sick.
ReplyDeleteYes it was, but remember when Bertie swallowed Gemma's anti- depressants?
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I don't see what effect these 'happy pills' have on Gemma. They don't seem to light her mood in any way at all.
I assumed that the hospital have brought in a social worker now to investigate this poisoning.
I was interested to know who was looking after the quads when Bernie, Gemma and Chesney were in hospital with Joseph, but we didn't find out.
Just a line 'Abbey's looking after the kids for us' would have sufficed!
I reckon Ed and Ronnie's dad is a chancer (There probably is no food truck) and has turned out of the blue to beg for cash , nothing else.
