Haha me too - I HATED Camilla by the end of the show, and was very glad Jamie won.
I'm so glad that we think alike on so many issues. Glad to have another "mikidiki" thinker on board![]()
I couldn’t have read anything more laughable in my life.

Great things coming ... former BB housemate Wes Dening.
FORMER Big Brother housemate, Wes Dening is to make his US television debut as a co-host of cable TV show The Smoking Gun Presents: World's Dumbest today US time.
The promising young host, who landed a US travel series after BB, will co-host nine new episodes of the show with stars such as Daniel Baldwin, Danny Bonaduce and Tanya Harding.
Perhaps buoyed by his career success, Dening last month proposed to his girlfriend Michala in an elaborate stunt which was designed to look like a radio competition prize that involved flying her to New York, driving her via limousine to the Rockefeller Centre and then popping the big question.

Bionic eye project boosted by $42m grant

Big Brother winner Reggie, who is now legally blind, has welcomed the $42 million boost in funds for the Australian-led effort to build a bionic eye.
Regina Sorenson, the popular 2003 winner of the reality TV show, said the project represented a brighter future for vision impaired people.
"It is amazing," said Ms Sorenson who has seen an example of the type of vision a bionic eye, at this early stage of its development, could restore.
"It was in black and white and you can see outlines of things and shadows.
"By the time I do go totally blind - hopefully I don't but if I do - then hopefully something like that would be available."
The 35-year-old Gold Coast mother of two is slowly losing her sight to the degenerative disease retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
Her daughter Mia is now two years old while her son Lucas is aged just 15 weeks.
Mrs Sorenson said her vision had "deteriorated pretty fast over the last couple of years, and I'm hoping it will slow down".
"I've got 10 degrees of vision left," she said.
"I've got good central vision when I focus on something that is in front of me, but I don't have any peripheral vision left.
"And I can't see above or below ... if someone is next to me I have to turn my whole head around to look at them."
She added that her doctors, family and friends were remaining "very positive about it all".
The federal government this week announced a $42 million grant for Melbourne-based Bionic Vision Australia (BVA).
It is developing technology that uses a small video camera fixed to a glasses, and its images are sent as electrical pulses to electrodes attached to a patient's retina.
While not able to recreate sight, it would allow people with vision impairment to detect large objects and, in time, read text and recognise some facial features.
Human trials of the bionic eye could begin within two years.

End of an era: Krystal Forscutt is hanging up her bikini.

TODAY is a sad day for fans of busty bikini babe Krystal Forscutt .
The lads' magazine market may never be the same with Forscutt, who found fame by getting breast implants with her mother to ensure they were picked as Big Brother housemates in 2006, saying she is quitting glamour modelling.
Forscutt has told Zoo Weekly she is swapping bikinis, pouts and poses for an acting career.
"I'm looking for a challenge, and trying to crack the acting world," Forscutt has told the magazine.
"I'm also currently enrolled in a singer/songwriter course and just trying to broaden my skills beyond wearing a bikini, although it wasn't as easy as it looks, trust me."
Forscutt said her highlight in the past four years was entertaining Aussie troops in East Timor.
"What an experience," she said. "The part where I ended up covered in my own vomit (on a helicopter) wasn't that great, though."

Krystal Forscutt admits she's never watched an episode of the Channel 10 show Big Brother
FORMER Big Brother contestant Krystal Forscutt has never watched an episode of the show that launched her career.
"I can't bring myself to watch it," the buxom brunette said of the Channel 10 reality series.
"I attach it with being trapped for three months. I feel nauseous thinking about it."
Forscutt said it was hard to change back to "normal life" after her stint on the program in 2006.
"I thought I would be able to go back to my old life," she told the Northern Territory News in Darwin.
"I never thought (I would become famous)."
Forscutt said she had trouble adjusting to reality, and felt as though she was constantly being watched.
And the girl who really made her name strutting in a bikini has turned her back on it to become a serious actress and she plans on studying musical theater to increase her work prospects.
