Stressed spells Desserts

Trudy is grimacing. The Walkers presume she has blisters from her $400 designer walking shoes. But no, she confides, she’s just had a Brazilian wax and a few spots of wax are glued to her lycra-ed thighs.

Tabitha suspects the other Walkers think ‘getting a Brazilian’ means acquiring a hunky South American boyfriend. But she supposes if Butch and Pooples can co-exist happily, there’s hope for her and the Wonder Walkers. Besides, these women make her laugh without even trying.

Tabitha is definitely starting to feel better. Toey was awake half the night so packing her eye bags and joining the Wonder Walkers was a battle today. How do women cope with more than one kid, Tabitha wonders aloud. Five must be hell, she says, eying earth mother Roxie.

“More like Purgatory,” smiles Roxie. “Problem is, my key to heaven is usually in the fridge. Being a Mum is stressful and everyone knows stressed just means desserts spelled backwards.

“Is it any wonder I look like this?”

All this talk of motherhood has Laura Laces casting a warning glance in Tabitha’s direction.

Trudy also catches the look. As her multiple body-pierced hairdresser knows, Trudy is not as blonde as she looks.

Will Trudy find out what’s going on with Laura and Tabitha?

Will the Walkers inspire Roxie to put a lock on the fridge?

Has anyone noticed that Pooples is scratching?
