Anthea Turner is OS!!

Just watching the perfect housewives program (Oh dear, I'm becoming my mum, I'm far too young to do that!), Anthea uses Vinegar and Bicarb on carpet stains! (Water and Vinegar on ketchup, Water and Bicarb on Choc mousse)

Edit: Also apparently baby oil makes metal surfaces gleam

    Anthea's irritated me ever since she was reported as asking what a woman with three children did all day, and suggested that she "sat around drinking coffee", this was about the chap that she married's ex wife!

    Even if as a mum of four I chose to drink coffee all day, chance would be a fine thing, it's none of her business!

    LOL I find her rather too perfectionist and judgemental, did you see the one (think it was last week) where she didnt want the woman to have her childrens pictures stuck up on the walls? Thought that was rather mean.

    But, there are some good tips, so I watch it and dream of the day when I have my own home :D

    It might be a freeview channel actually (Sorry didn't consider that not everyone would have access to it!!)

    Yes, just googled, it's on BBC3. Maybe will appear on normal Beeb at some point?

    But she does use Cadbury's to pay for her weddings!

    Sorry to say Anthea is on my do not like list. The woman doesn't have a likeable bone in her body and I don't know why????? No warmth and she comes across as a control freak with too much time on her hands!

    I love the women though who live in chaos - they have great personalities and are what make the programme amusing. Yes it is good to be organised (I am not) but I would rather be disorganised than an organised robot.
