I think that she is just so used to getting her way each and every time. She wants an egg chair, she gets an egg chair. She wants her fence painted - it's done by the end of the day. Let's be realistic. I've done renovations on my own house. Painting etc. It's not something people generally get on a whim. Need to work out a time to get it done, how much paint is needed, brushes, drop sheets etc. Price it all up, and make a decision whether and when to go ahead with it. There's not been a single thing where she's NOT gotten something within a short space of time of deciding she wants it. The house extension is probably the only time she's been knocked back, but I'm guessing that's because they don't know her personally so they don't need to pander to her, and she didn't front up with wads of cash. Lo and behold, I've seen some talk that she's gotten her extension approved on the second go. Someone made reference earlier to Veruca Salt. Mrs Hinch is the perfect example of what Veruca Salt would have grown up into. I WANT IT NOW. I WANT ONE. GET IT FOR ME. That's her all over.
Of course she doesn't give a fk about the environment. Why would she? What happens to the fish in the oceans doesn't affect her personally. Plastic washing up on beaches elsewhere - not like she's going to see it. She's probably one of those people that thinks that because she's not going to be alive in 100+ years time when the planet really goes to tit if nothing is done, then what's the problem?
She's as selfish as they come, and I can't wait until she comes down a peg or six.
Excellent post Kiki!
