Brian Dowling #7 Orthur left holding the child while Brian goes live. Bus everyday cos he won't learn to drive

[Tulipsfromamsterdam]

JP covering the radio Monday too, so it’s a long enough jaunt to NYC. Gone for the weekend. But I suppose no photoshoot so no need to be in Ireland at the weekend.

 

[Skinner]

Is it worth going all the way to NYC for a few days by the pool?
Why not just go to France or Spain. Just over 2 hours away.
The lips on him in todays stories, they're like a baboons arse.

I think someone said he does it to keep his green card

 

[BridgetJonesWannabe]

Is arfur on the beg for a doll, saying Blake has only teddies and no dolls and they would have to change that

Yeah I think he once said they are trips to keep his green card. And that’s why he’s not too vocal about those particular trips nowadays because US immigration might not want to hear he wants to hang on to his green card while having no real intention of going back to live full time there. We had them when we lived and worked there and gave them back, no point if we weren’t going to be living there, too stressful answering the questions put to us: but not for Brian, he can swan over and back no problem, seems to shirk responsibilities when it suits.

She wouldn’t know is it was from a charity shop or the most expensive one in Ireland. FFS they are full of notions.

If Brian comes home from NYC without a Doll for his daughter I’d change the locks on him.

 

[Darkside]

Is the doll code for Blake might be getting a baby...

 

[focusdochas]

Are they that clever

 

[Ellegee]

I don’t think either of them would be in a rush to have another. I think Arthur is enjoying his time with Blake but I doubt he expected to be lumped with the bulk of the childcare & long days on his own with her. It would be crazy to bring another child into the world with the setup they have right now. I get the impression Brian would rather be anywhere but home these days.

 

[irishjen]

They aren't getting any younger and a 2nd in 9mths would be a nice gap

Last trip to NY was 21wks ago, so not exactly 6 months interesting to see how many visits he needs to do

 

[ploddertoo]

I really hope Aoife doesn’t do another Surrogate for them

 

[Millieminion]

Never known anyone to have a new job, that's less than 4 hours a day, to have so much time off already, he's been off more than on the radio.

Still think he'll quit by Christmas, he'll never cope with the early storts when it's still dork at 8am.

Poor Arfur. The reality of a baby is hitting home. He's stuck all day at home and is beginning to look v unkempt. The other fellas is never at home but will be first to hold Blake for a photoshoot.

 

[focusdochas]

It’s grand until the baby can move quickly in the opposite direction

Oh exactly- Arthur is the one left to do everything when your man jets off around the world and out on the town- surely Arthur can see this!!!!! Brian is all for show but too selfish to really commit

 

[Mrs Fluff]

Why the hell go to NYC of all places where there's everything to do and see and sit by a pool?

Also I'm starting to think Blake will start picking up on French before English considering Orthur is doing the bulk of the parenting. Which to be fair is a good thong, no harm in being bilingual

Aoife often looks so sad

 

[Bidscavan]

Aoife often looks so sad

I felt sorry for her yesterday in the pic BDG put up of her with her feet in the pool. She looked so sad in it like she had the weight of the world on her shoulders in that moment
