Episode Eleven - We're the New Breed of Woman

“Personal trainer, my arse,” Roxie Rambler mutters to herself. “If Susie could walk in my shoes she’d see I’ve done a full day’s workout by 9am”.

It had, admittedly, been a particularly crappy morning. Between filling lunchboxes, signing permission slips, testing spelling words and dishing up porridge, the twins went missing. She found them painting the last of her limited makeup supply on each other’s bottoms.

Then 14 year-old daughter Carey needed her mother’s undivided attention to discuss her new status as a FemBot.

“We’re the new breed of woman, you know mum,” Roxie heard. “We’re steely females…” The rest of the monologue was lost to the sound of sparring siblings and a crash of treasured china.

Thank goodness for the boxing bag Roxie keeps in the garage, a leftover from her army days.

She makes a mental note to call Ani. She’s the only Wonder Walker who would understand the desire to deliver a consequential smack or two.

Thankfully, she has the Walkers to look forward to today. She’s dying to tell the crazy crew the striding is working on the weight loss front. Since joining Wonder Walkers she’s lost two kilos. “Just watch out Trudy,” she says to herself. “Before you know it, I’ll be shopping with you for lycra and g-strings.”

How low will Roxie’s knicker size go?

Will Roxie find out that Susie is desperate to be a Mum?

Will Ani and Roxie enjoy a spin-off friendship?
