Well I for one, am not over the moon.

Better to have the understanding of her than her at your throat I reckon



Plus, in all honesty, I think Ben gets really bored and likes talking to someone 'new'

Banjo and Colin have been my two favourite housemates from the start (even though they are very very different personality wise), so I am delighted that they are getting along so well.

I think he is living dangerously, and is bound to get burned ....

I can only answer for one Ben's Buddy obviously, me, but IMO Ben has been a friend to absolutely everyone in there, I have no problem at all with him being friendly to Caoimhe

Is Carvery Caoimhe? If so, I'm not happy.
If Carvery is Corin, I don't mind.

Ben does not discriminate he talks to everyone.

Oooo Yogi I never thought of that.... I just presumed in was Keeva If it is Corin, then then that's fine by me

Yeh I was assuming Carvary meant Corin.  I don't see Caoimhe and Ben as particularly close friends at all.

Hi Baz I think Carvery probably is Caoimhe, I was just covering all bases.

Ben was the one she went to when she was thinking of leaving, he's very supportive.  He talked her out of it, that's if it was ever really part of her plan, which I doubt.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer still. That would be my nasty mind in action, but I think Ben is genuinely a kind chap and just wants to get on with them all.

I don't doubt Ben's sincerity... it's hers I have concerns about. Given the way she turned on her *best friend* Shabby, I wouldn't trust her further than I could throw her.

Ditto.

it cant get no worse for him i dont think, they all hate him for 1 reason or other, Ben is Ben he does try with everyone.
