Nobbi, Ben, Rory and Bianca disembarked Big Brother Airways this morning – a little ragged around the edges and a lot worse for wear. Sullen-faced and dead-eyed, they looked like the walking dead. The four had their spirits crushed by what they had thought was going to be an exotic holiday to Bali.

“Home sweet home,” Rory groaned.

Dressed in elaborate hats, tight-fitting jackets, fingerless mittens and baggy trench coats,  the Dumpsters were keen to tell their fellow HMs how much they had suffered at the hands of Big Brother’s ‘mystery prize’.

“Oh, they’re back!” Travis called out. “What’s with the hats?”

“We lived in a dump,” Bianca said coldly. “Like an actual dump.”

“Hey Guys! Hey Troops!” Terrence took the sight of the festering four in. “She looks like bloody Biggles – the pilot!”

“Nobbi!” Travis made his way to the back door.

“Did you hear where we went?” Nobbi asked.

“A dump!” Trav laughed.

“A dump.” Nobbi confirmed.
 
While Nobbi and Ben relayed to Travis all the details about their jaunt, Bianca and Rory trudged into the Bedroom. The Housemates looked confused, why were the BB Jetsetters dressed in such rags?

“We slept in a dump,” Rory explained. “Like literally a rubbish dump!”

“You did not!” Rhianna said disbelievingly. “You got treated like princesses in Bali!”

Rory showed off his coat. “Who wears this on purpose?”

“Smell my underarms,” Bianca offered.

Terri was indignant: “Are you serious?”

“Did you really not have showers and stuff?” Rhianna asked, coming around.

“We had nothing!” Rory boasted.

Rhianna pressed Rory further, “So you walked into a dump?”

“It was literally trashed,” Rory said. “Spray-painted walls …”

“… Beds on milk crates.” Bianca added.

“So much for Bali not being able to be changed.” Terri was stunned.

Terrence wasn’t. He found the whole situation utterly hilarious, barely able to construct an audible sentence while Nobbi was telling the Soapbox Dad what had happened. “Hey Nobbi,” Terrence laughed. “The Kombi’s looking pretty good isn’t it?’

The laughing and wise cracks continued until the two outside campers Renee and Alice stirred in their makeshift campsite (they decided they wanted to sleep under the stars). Renee looked particularly angry, “F**k me! That’s not the only time I’ve woken up to that voice and laugh either. It’d want to be the last I’ll tell you that.”

Terrence continued to laugh.

Why is Renee so grumpy? Is she not a morning person or is it something more?
