Just goes to show, money can't buy friendship.
Lizzi has terminal breast cancer herself. It’s a very sad situation.
That poor family. My heart truly goes out to them. Life is just so damn cruel and unfair sometimes.
I used to have some sort of sympathy for him, but when I realized that he does nothing to help himself, I just couldn't give a tit. He has had access to professionals, no doubt through Nads, yet for years he has been obstinate, refusing to get help. He has spent decades hobbled, spending time being miserable and bitching on YouTube, having his spells. He is supposedly on meds and kind of goes to therapry, who knows what exactly goes on behind the scenes. If Nadia didn't have a hard time telling him to get his so-called drinking problem sorted, why hasn't she told him the same about his mental health? Maybe she likes the status quo subconsciously?
i dont think he has the social maturity to deal with his issues
he was drinking from a young age, and in a serious relationship from the age of 14, his formative teenage years have been blurred - no doubt living in a chaotic home too, he is full of resentment, so he wallows in his own misery

Cue his usual aggressive response when called out with the truth.
Part 3 of the Xmas Adverts. Guess what? The Golden Child has been roped in graced us with her presence. They all have their hats on, bobbling their heads manically whilst Nadia sings "We Wish You a Merry Christmas." Mark has just realized why he has a sty-he has hit his eye with the bobble end of that demented elf hat of his. Mark says people haven't been impressed with the other ones. By people, he means them three. They did like the Asda, M&S and Barbour.
Ad #1. We have a dad with his daughter who is riding a bike. There is a boy looking over the balcony of what looks like gentrified council flats and mum says to him "Why don't you make a Christmas list?" "A list?!?" he exclaims and he is off getting wrapping paper to write the list, there is a dog. Mark says he is about to cry and Nadia says "That's Mark." Poor deprived wee Markie, give me a break. Yahzoo's "Only You" is playing, but it is a maudlin version. The list is longer than a football pitch. Please don't tell me asks for world peace in this list. The list stretches out the window and then we see the boy carrying this list and asks his parents how to get it to Santa. The list flies out of his hands, boy gets sad, mum goes to hug him. What's that across the road? IT'S MCDONALD'S! Nothing like fast food to make you forget about that Xmas list that got sucked up into the atmosphere. "Why didn't we see the Big Mac?" asks Nads She is always thinking about her stomach that one. The go out of McNasty's and the boy opens up a drawing he did of his mum and dad and him in front of their block of flats, hugs. The buyline is "Are Your #Reindeer Ready?" in a child's font. Big awwws from the elves, but Nadia wanted to see a bite into a burger. Maddie says the golden arches bring happiness. Yeah and 90% of the time they get your order wrong. Mark says it is Boxing Day Christmas, get an UBER Eats. Get an UBER Eats and find that your driver was dipping into your fries, because he can't afford to stop for a meal himself. Less than 5 mins in and we have Mark swearing as he says "duck turkeys." Nadia asks if McDonald's is open on Xmas Day. NO! Mark says nice production value, great music, I was tearful, cute kid. Nadia says he was a great little actor "which is hard with English/British kids." Dina thinks they dubbed the kids response when he said yes to writing a list.
Ad #2. Some middle-aged dude in a beard on a decked out tractor. He says he is Farmer Christmas grower of fantastic food. "Follow me folks!" Why is everyone using the word folks these days? He drives the tractor into a barn, which has become a makeshift Morrisons. Bakers are making puff pasty mince pies, made by Jeff in magic ovens, to which Jeff says they are normal ovens. It seems like this Santa has been on the sauce. Smoked Scottish salmon with orange and cranberry, a big gammon that he calls an "edible Christmas present." He takes his tractor to some random's house, where the kids don't get out much as they are impressed by a lit tractor. He goes on to say that Morrisons is the only supermarket approved by him, Farmer Christmas. The 4 elves are liking this ad. Dina says it was straightforward, no looking to what they are talking about. Nads says it gave them what they wanted, "a bit of twinkle, a bit of Father Christmas, a bit of magic and plenty of grub." That stomach again. 
Mark goes there again as per. He asks if you hear that bit where he says "and I'm a lover pause." 
Nadia asks Maddie if it made her feel Christmassy "Yeah, I really liked that one." Nadia goes on to tell us how Maddie is an afficinado on Christmas, because she was born on Christmas Day. So was Justin Trudeau and his brother Sacha, big whoop. Mark mentions that Morrisons is Kiki's favourite supermarket. "So random." "These are good" says Mark.
Ad #3. Snowgran goes for a walk. It's a snowman dressed as a granny, I could be mislabelling the snowman/woman/person whateverthehellyoucallit. A little girl sees her go off for a walk. She walks past people getting wasted, a child and their parent/guardian looking in a window. The little girl goes next door to give the snowgran a card with a Sim card in it for O2. She facetimes with the relatives and Mark says "That's what we need to do for Nan." The snow melts away and there is a real gran underneath. Is O2 trying to say that don't worry about heating costs, because if you should turn into a snow person from lack of heat, facetiming with O2 can prevent hypothermia?
Voiceover says O2 is donating data to those in need. Close enough. Maddie is on O2 in case you wanted to know. Nadia didn't understand the ad and Mark explains it to her. "Does that mean snowmen are going to turn into real people?" Maddie says apparently you are going to be having a hot Xmas, so know worry about heating. Remember when I told you how it was 25 degrees in my place last week? Old man winter has just shown up. It has been below 0 overnight for the past few days and raining. 
Ad #4 is for Smyths Toys. It's animated with some dude singing over the action "There's a magic place, where toys are made..." The Undertaker is behind the cafe counter, a Sylvanian cat is dining with a girl, there are Squashmallows all over the joint as in life, a T-Rex is doing some topiary outside. There are those 2-bit hobag dolls, not Brats the other ones, LOL dolls. We see Spiderman commit an offence under the Sexual Offences Act 2003, Section 67-he is peering through a little girls window whilst she is on her Ninetendo Switch.
Buzz Lightyear is putting up lights, Gigi the Giraffe which is a wiggle toy. I had to look that one up. A unicorn and Harry Potter Lego, Barbie is whizing around on a skateboard with the Squashmellows following, Roblox. It ends with kids and toys all going into Smyths. Mark says they are the only toy shop out there. Much lamenting of the demise of Toys R Us. They still exist in Canada because they were better managed apparently. Nadia says the ad gave the sense of toys rather than specific ones that might be expensive. Maddie says it was a horrific song. You should know. Mark bursts out laughing. Dina says the musics was shocking. Maddie says if she saw that as a kid, she wouldn't want anything from them. She is too cool for school that she was homeschooled of course. Nadia liked the look of it, but Mark said kids are sophisicated, the animation was tit. Whatever Mark, STFU.
Ad #5. "Come on!" shouts one kid to another as they leave their Grim Up North 2 up 2 down terrace house. There is a trumpet playing from a gazebo and two chicks start singing The Raveonettes "The Christmas Song." Good choice. Bitter approves this music selection with my aggressive thumb up. Various shots around Britain, people getting together. Nadia thinks this is a Coca-Cola ad. They show buildings with lights in triangle form, a sailboat with a green sail, green postbox. The elves are shouting out their guesses as to which product this is advertising. Green ribbon wrapped around a lighthouse, a polar bear club going for a dip, Wim Hoff would be pround. Green lit drones forming a Xmas tree. A child dressed as an angel, hops off a green bollard. "Where ever you find it this Christmas..." I can't hear the rest because everyone shouts "SPAR?!?" Mark says "I didn't know SPAR did adverts." I remember one from the 80s "So near, So SPAR." and that 1 pound coin promotion. I have a load of useless junk in my head today. I just remembered my very first postal code today L6S 2E6. Mark and Nadia finally figure out the Xmas trees are the same as the SPAR tree lego. Nads asks Dina if it has always been a Xmas tree all year round. Well, most people call that a pine tree or an evergreen Nadia and guess what? They grow all year round. An evergreen isn't just for Christmas. God she can be so dim. They say it is a good advert. Mark saids when Nadia said spa she meant SPAR. Nadia mentions doing an interview over the phone and said she gave birth to her kids over a spa, but the interviewer had to ask her if where she lived was over a SPAR. The sun is shining over Nadia's mouth and she says "Look, I've been touched by the light of Christmas!" You've been touched by many things, the light of Christmas I doubt. Mark liked the realism of the part of the SPAR parking lot-teenagers moping around and chucking tit at each other. Charming.

I do wonder if the issue here is Narcissistic Nadia? I think Mark has had the most awful start to life and has used the most unhealthy coping techniques to get through. Nanny Di also has narcissistic tendencies as did Nanny Thelma. Growing up in such dysfunction is bound to have an impact on your life and upbringing. I almost feel sorry for Mark. He is totally alone and always has been. I do wonder if Nadia could see his vulnerability therefore always now has narcissistic supply from Mark because she has him exactly where she wants him... at home, unkempt, unwashed devoting himself 110% on her? It does make me wonder that she likes all the bells and whistles that come with being the sole earner, the home owner, the fixer, the one who makes Mark better, the heroine. Yet deep down Mark isn’t allowed to be independent or his own person. He has to devote all his time on Nadia. No more, no less. Because Mark has such a dysfunctional childhood, he knows no difference. He has attachment to dysfunction- extreme highs and lows in a relationship is normal for Mark, he could quite possibly crave it because it’s all he knows. Either way it’s sad to see it played out.
If Mark was my partner I’d be encouraging independence, friendships, counselling and healthy hobbies.
I think Nadia is the issue.
Yesterday on CM someone said the flashing lights behind m and n could trigger epilepsy. She immediately said I’ll turn them off but he really didn’t like it and went on and on about the distance etc etc and how he knew all about this.
Anyway, he really didn’t like being told. Today the lights are flashing for coffee morning. He’s a right twit.

agree she is the rescuer and he is the victim so round and round the drama triangle they go - her chasing him and him being caught - until they got off the drama triangle they will get nowhere
I agree. Nadia is a massive control freak. You could see it on Big Brother and how angry she got if anyone challenged her. She has Mark and Maddie just where she wants them, totally beholden to her for money. They will never break away from her as the entire family is completely dysfunctional.
yes she is a proper bossy old boot and thats why she falls out with everyone
as she wont be told and its her way or no way
she interferred in Dina's love life and they didnt speak for 2 years
as she wont be told and its her way or no way

Imagine having the gall to interfere with someone else's love life when you've married an alcoholic, with two children from two different women and you've only known them a few months! Unbelievable!
I agree with you all she definitely rules the roost at home and at work and everything has to be her way or not at all. I can't feel sorry for Manky in any way he puts up with her ruling his life but he is a nasty nasty man. I get it that he had a weird childhood, having no father around, neglected by his mother and brought up by strange grandparents but that doesn't mean he has to be so rude and arrogant to everyone else around him. Most of us were quite happily following him and nitty until we saw through them and what spiteful people they are and then when we tried to question some of his comments he blocked us from his channel and I can't remember what I commented on (vaguely remember it was something to do with epilepsy that he was being an arse about and I pulled him up about) and the next thing he said was 'I'm going to give you 10 minutes to apologise and then you're blocked'. He thinks he can say what he likes about anyone no matter what their problems are and just laugh about it and then there was the time he was going to track us down and bash us over the head with his baseball bat. Not that it could ever happen but it shows what a vile guy he is to even say that.
Omg he's going to give you 10 mins does he think he's a fkn headmaster?....I think he's still drinking a vlog came on automatically it was the room for dirty Di getting done up and he was happy he had another bed to sleep in plus he sits down stairs to all hours "editing" while nits is sleeping I thing he's drinking
probably putting it in soft drinks cans plus he's always tired in the morning he's probably rough with the drink he could be hiding it in the garden it will be spirits ..nits is always on the sauce anyway 
to notice or smell it from him so it could be easy for him to hide and he's being careful not to overdo it and fly under the radar

And she controls what he eats, she is a controlling person, she was even telling Lee when making the cocktails don't do that etc , she has to always have her say! Very controlling in her nature .
she said don't add sugar syrup it'll be sweet enough (and exhibited narcissistic self-satisfaction)
she then tasted hers and said to add sugar syrup as it wasn't sweet enough (and exhibited narcissistic self-satisfaction).
she's a total narcissist.
Being around that for any period of time would destroy any normal persons self esteem.
The GFH vlogs are unwatchable thanks to Manky’s shaky camera work and the fact that he hardly ever shows the garden. His camera phone is always planted on his face. Nittya did a much better job filming the garden (disorganised mess that it is) when Manky asked her to film the tour he gave Lee.50 something year old Mark Adderley refuses to take responsibility for his own actions. In the words of his own mother: "You always have to blame somebody."
