Tim's problem was with Tully in the BB house. He's much more 'down' with her now on the outside.
I don't think he is either. I've always leaned that way with him. I get the sense he tolerates it all because he adores Drew and as he said his biggest regret is not getting to know Tully more in the house, but I think he's sticking with what he originally thought of her and their relationship. And for all we know she's still somewhat pissed at him for wanting to get her out of the house so he could have Drew back so maybe there's a bit of underlying hostility there from both sides. Not that it mattered as most of Australia was trying to get her out before Tim said a word but I could see how that would be something she'd latch on to. (I probably would too, to be fair.)
Never mind wrapping them, I need help making the f'n things! All the oldies plotted together this year and said they didn't want anything store bought. All handmade from the grand/great grand children. That's FOURTEEN homemade presents from each kid! Which of course equals mummy and daddy (bahaha) making it all with a few random touches from the rugrats. If they pull a stunt like this next year, I won't be asking you to fly here...I'll be begging you to let me come hide at your house!
Ok, kinda sounds like he's exasperated...
I see Boog differently to you, she was very supportive of Jade once Ed was evicted, and they instantly became really close, I am not surprised Boog has chosen to hang with Ed and his crew, because her relationship with Tahan seemed quite superficial, and if you look at the photos, Boog is hanging out with people like Ed and Nathan out of her own choice. I haven't seen any connection between Boog and Tahan since they left the house. I think Boog just "fell" into that group, possibly because of Tim's interest, but she never really said anything negative about the other group.
As for Tully, I don't think she would say anything negative about anyone. She has been making nice comments about Ed and Jade on Social Media. I'd like to think she wouldn't play into Tahan's games. She seems better than that.
yep tim couldn't stand tully....lets not forget the infamous "did ya get that tully"!!! he doesn't really get angry easy but he wanted her to know that he was voting for her (i remember being shocked because in the history of bb everyone is trying NOT to let others know they voted for them). He thought she was a fake and a try hard. I agree that he tolerated her and kept his mouth zipped once drew hooked up with her out of his respect for his mate. Didn't they even argue at the auditions? Would like to know what that was about.

Oh no way am I MAKING presents! Sweet sentiment but soooo time consuming. What are you making btw? Any ideas?
(You're welcome to hide out here but only if you bring those butterfly cakes, yum)
Boog's hung out with Tahan a few times since she's been out of the house (that we've seen, not sure if there's been more) and even posted for people to vote for Tahan after she was evicted instead of Jade, Ed, Drew or Tim so I think their friendship is doing just fine. I do agree about Tully although I don't think that would stop her from gossiping. Not publicly however as she's too social media savvy for that.
Haha, well one thing's for sure, Tim knows how to hold a grudge
I would have agreed with you on this one a few weeks back when he was still prattling on about Jade, Ed and Boog whom he had genuine issues with in the house... But this attitude now about Tully seems like it's out of left field.
My version of that silhouette pic I stole above is going to all the grandparents. If I ever choose a background colour at least. And then the great grandparents are getting one Rudolph and one Santa on two plates per couple. I know it's really bad to say but I figured they probably won't be around long enough for the paint to start to wear off if I manage to f it up somehow.
Again a stolen image as my stuff's nowhere close to being done!
I'd like to note that one year I gave 90 bottles of homemade Baileys and 400+ homemade truffles as gifts, along with the regular baking and other crap I do each year. It's just being semi forced to make stuff that has to be from a kid and yet he's not old enough to do most of it alone that has sent me into a panic.

I think that the thing that started this, i.e., "Don't get me started' was directed at the tweeter not the Drew/Tully relationship. I haven't noticed Tim having any issues, and let's face it, he blabs when he does. In the house, I just felt Tim was jealous of Tully 'stealing' Drew away, but I'm not sure that the and drew will ever have the proximity to be as close as they were inside.

or he is not down with questions that are meant to cause trouble
Boog would have only posted for people to vote for Tahan above Tim and Jade given she was evicted at the same time as Drew and after Ed. Look at the photos - she is clearly more engaged with Ed and Nathan than Tahan. I am not questioning their friendship, I am just saying I think Boog is a little more global than some obligation to Tahan. She is not that superficial.
haha jump on board my love! It is so cheap to make. Especially with Costco or Aldi booze. I made gallons of it one year and did a taste test with a few people before just to see if I needed to tweak anything and no one could tell the difference. The great thing about making it is that it's not like buying too many Xmas cards or gift tags and they just go to waste for a year, if you ever use them again at all. The ultimate joy is in the over-making. Gah, now I want some Baileys!
I had to go back and search because I didn't want to give you the wrong timeline. How bizarre does this all sound now?
Heidi Sets Tim Adrift
It all started with a little un-friendly fire between Tim and Heidi. Tim told Heidi outright that he didn’t trust her, to which she retorted, “I don’t trust you as far as I could throw you!”
So Tim wondered aloud who he could count as friends in the House. Mikkayla, Katie & Lucy all nailed their colours to Tim’s mast and thus were the battle lines drawn!
Ed’s Buried Treasure
Ed’s known for his even keel, but a new anger at Tim has blown a rough wind in his sails.
“This is war,” he declared to HMs in the Kitchen after Heidi’s big blowout. “He’s too good one-on-one,” he said of Tim’s manipulative tactics, proposing the way you beat a bully is to confront him as a group so he can’t retreat.
They say ‘smooth seas do not a skilled sailor make’, and Tim’s no stranger to tumult. He confronted Ed to announce he couldn’t count on the former footballer as a friend. Ed brushed off the accusation but later told HMs, “I’m going to build him up so close that I can tear him down.”
Tully Turns Tactician
Sensing dire straits, Tully quickly went about recruiting Housemates to the HMS Anti-Tim. Her first target? Jade.
Tully drew Jade aside to reaffirm the strength of their friendship, saying other people have gotten in the way of their bond.
“We’ve gotta remember that we’re friends, and we’ve been friends, and we don’t need other people,” Jade agreed, and the pair hugged it out.
Tully immediately scuttled off to inform Ed of the new recruit, and assured him she’d keep Jade on the straight and narrow. As opposed to the curly and loud.
Then proving herself a puppet master in the making, Tully found Tim alone in the Bedroom and gushed, “You know I love you.” Giving him a big hug she added, “You think that I don’t like you.”
“No I do know it – I do know it now,” Tim said, but was unable to make eye contact, perhaps better equipped than most to identify a lie. (It takes one to know one, after all.)
“Prove to me that you love me,” Tully challenged, but Tim’s rudder wasn’t so easily swung.
“I don’t have to prove it!” he argued. “You have to prove that I can trust you!”
Rough waters ahead! It’s sure going to take a master manipulator to throw Tim off his charted course, but could Tully mastermind the mutiny and become the new Captain of the Good Ship BB? Tune in!

God you're good, I wouldn't cope haha. I get what you mean about the oldies, as sad as it is. My great grandma is over 100 now and every year everyones a bit stumped on what to get her. Material things mean nothing to her now and she has too many family members for everyone to buy her a box of chocolates haha.My version of that silhouette pic I stole above is going to all the grandparents.

The plates are cute! I might see if mum thinks I can get away with making her present this year, instead of all the jewellery she's been pointing out.
