    If they have the money and they like it, I don't see why not. QS is out of line with her reaction IMO.

    Absolutely vulgar to comment negatively on the kids.

    I didn't have a swipe at the kids there, I was just making an observation about their voices and how they go along with other female Irish voices I've seen since I've moved here. Because I sound like a little girl and I'm green from envy :(

    Ya, people need to get over it.
    Lots of successful participants have money to spend.
    Fair play to them.

    Yes his very first introduction to the programme is to get the **** out if there as soon s possible. Hes paid the same either so hes not doing it to save the client time ....hes wanting to get on to ths next job. So you woukdnt have much faith in him finding an issue and fixing it rather than covering it up.

    i have no problem with him trying to get finished early. time is money . finish early and its profit to him. nothing wrong with that . its saying it to all the public and the way he is saying it that comes across badly

    Love the look at the lad sitting to one side as they played pool. It was classic I booked that table and these feckers with a TV camera turned up.

    How do you actually get a bath like that in? Doesn't that weigh a literal ton?

    Crane I suspect.

    The look on the builders face is going to be fantastic.

    They don’t have a mortgage, It’s the same as a cheap 3 bedroom in Dublin. Nothing out of the ordinary

    Indeed. Don't get me wrong. I like them and I'd say he is paid a fortune so fair play.

    I like the bath but looks like you would need a reinforced upstairs floor to take it, must weigh a load.

    Depends, Vice President is the same as Assistant Manager in a many of the American MNCs operating in Dublin. Citibank and Statestreet being two examples. They tend to go very overboard on job titles.
