It's not one against one and everyone should be helping the weaker memebers. I agree with you though and I would not have had a massage and I would have tried to find her a more productive job, the garden seems very understaffed! <br />The wood thing made me alugh as well. Basically they're going to have to spend the whole of summer collecting wood for winter, no one is going to want to collect wet branches in the middle of a Scottish winter! <br />Like my sister says below the editiing is weird, they seem to only concentrate on a couple of people each week, Anton has hardly been mentioned since and I wonder if he's still doing things to his hut. <br />The community shelter should be a none optional activity, the food idea of yours is perfect. <br />I've seen some other clips of them amkingin their own money (eden coins) and smoking fish so it'll be interesting to see what they've been up to when it comes back on.

I think that's unfortunately how some people are and if you look at who's doing the bitching a lot of it is actually from the alpha males in the group - some of whom are definitely in their 30's. I think it comes across really badly and against the whole idea of the programme, but I'm sure the hunger is effecting people's character.<br /><br />I think the editing has a major part to play as well. If you think episode 1 was Jasmine's episode and she was made to look lazy and immature, but she's barely been mentioned lately so you forget about her."Kev Alvitihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992625860900617194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-54294794753659304272016-08-09T09:11:57.397+01:002016-08-09T09:11:57.397+01:00Really enjoyed last nights programme. The lack of...Really enjoyed last nights programme. The lack of food is a worry. When watching them dishing out food, why is a man doing that? Not being sexist, but women would normally take less food than a man. I feel therefore the people who are digging and very physical work are not getting enough as the ones who are not using as much energy. The food is problem.<br /><br />Glad Tara has gone. waste of space. Tom is a bully and a coward, he will find someone else to hen peck next. you will see. Tara should have been in charge of washing up, helping the cook and keeping the fire going in the kitchen. She would then have been seen to doing something productive. I would not have had a massage either as I would have prefered her watering plants or helping in the kitchen. It would have been my silent protest that everyone else was carrying her. <br /><br />I cant remember who it was who commented about chopping wood. They have obviously no fore thought of how cold it is going to be come winter. Yes collect wind falls but to not be well stocked for winter is ridiculous.<br /><br />The winter shelter that Anton fought for in the beginning and tried to branch off from, seems to be faltering. He now seems disinterested. Maybe in the beginning this was his bid to be a leader and it went wrong? They should have made the cook (cant remember his name) bring the food to only that site. They would then have been fed when there and people not working would not eat. Harsh but it is all rationed and they moan about it, but dont seem to be doing a lot about making a plan. This will be troublesome when winter hits.<br /><br />I want to see how well they are going to do at preserving the food Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10518631542782309728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-65904414361675891862016-08-09T08:43:53.856+01:002016-08-09T08:43:53.856+01:00have to agree with you mate, the old chippy seems ...have to agree with you mate, the old chippy seems to be the most level headed and practical guy on the squad, i'd certainly want him on my team!Tricky Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08755505701123051720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-85713689706827261962016-08-09T08:09:04.035+01:002016-08-09T08:09:04.035+01:00I've got them all saved on the Freesat box, so...I've got them all saved on the Freesat box, so I need to have a catch up session before I comment on this.
