I don't want Anthony to win. There I said it.”
I agree with this. He seems to be the kind of person who can really create an atmosphere doesn't he? One of those annoying people who when he's happy (ha! what am I saying? when is HE happy?!?!?) everyone else can be but if he's miserable everyone else has to be too. His whole universe is centred around himself no thought for anyone else.
And I'm sorry, but I didn't believe his rant about the stocks being unfair, nasty, humiliating etc. He's just terrified in case HE gets put in there and we get to see his bald patch! I notice where he's thinning on top he's dyed it blonde - nothing wrong with that but IMO that is why he was against the stocks, because he's quite vain, if HE gets wet we'll notice his thinning hair. Please note I'm not saying there's anything wrong with going bald - but I don't think HE likes going bald. And another thing against his rant on the stocks - Dougie wasn't exactly bothered by it was he?
And I was literally gobsmacked when he said in the bush telegraph that Fatima had had a go at him that morning! She was a damn site more respectful to HIM than he was to HER. Besides, she had a point.
