Where did Nic come from anyway? I ask because years ago on Facebook I was in the Liz Jones Appreciation Group and after a terrible column she was getting some flak. I posted something too, nothing horrible yet I got some horrid private messages from the admin of the group.
She was quite a strange looking woman and years later when I saw Nic's photo I think it was her.
I've looked for the message to check but can't find it.
She used to work for American Express as a drone. Did a Bach Flower Remedies course and was magically reborn as an Animal Behaviour Expert and moved in with Juggo when she hot footed it out of The Smoke. Despite her *ahem* qualifications, none of Juggo's pets have ever been trained and the horses were unrideable (that and the fact Juggo has no riding abilities whatsoever).
In Brushford, Bebb was gifted the barn conversion that was actually Juggo's sisters. There was an ugly court case and Juggo was ordered to buy her sister an alternative residence. She was also prosecuted as the barn was a haven for bats. She had to build a bat sanctuary as penance.
In the interim, Bebb the Flower Fairy became Juggo's de facto PA and, when Juggo moved to Low Row, Bebb had little choice but to tag along. Fortunately, Lawn House had servant's quarters (Waterfall Cottage) and Bebb had all sorts of fun & games there!
When Juggo was bankrupted, she was moved into ghastly hovel in the middle of nowhere, presumably at Juggo's expense, while J herself rented the cottage at Easby, miraculously turning it into a hovel virtually overnight (there was a brief rental in Camden but she was evicted for lying about her zoo).
Now Bebb seems to be suffering from ill-health (long Covid?) and is proving to be an unreliable slave. I suspect they are not on brilliant terms at present, but with Juggo moving into the Annexe (with three bedrooms) it will be interesting to see if Bebb moves in or is binned.
