They will always expect to go away every school holidays - don’t think they’ve ever stayed at home at Christmas - they’re spending money like water , gonna be shock once it’s gonePlus they were reading it in there lounge wear all ready for the long drive. Isla started with the shocked look before Esme even mentioned going anywhere... Izzy's acting is absolutely awful.
Plus if they really genuinely don't tell the girls they are upping and leaving the country for a week..that is beyond cruel! No chance to sort homework or cancel plans with friends..or even say goodbye to friends! Most kids would be panicked if that was thrown at them.
