What are the ABC thinking with Wendy Harmer? She has the the sense of humour of a Wettex. Not that she cares, she laughs at all her own jokes. Oh, and here’s a big tip Wendy…renovations aren’t interesting, even your own renovations aren’t interesting, let alone someone else’s.

I’m sure Adam Spencer LOVES her though, she’s job security on two legs for him.
