17:36um
17:36i do
17:37i do have something
17:39to say to you
17:40um
17:42i need you to acknowledge
17:43my pain in having absolutely no one believe me
17:49when i warned you all on many occasions
17:52about jasmine
17:54my feelings are just as valid as yours
17:59please
18:01okay
18:03i guess that must have hurt a lot
18:07thank you
18:11and i am sorry for being
18:13so blinkered with my own feelings
18:17i should have been more aware of the pain that all this would have caused you
18:21and instead i was
18:23focused on my own need for validation
18:27it's a fault of mine i am aware of it
18:29i'm glad you're aware of it
18:32sorry
18:36let's face it
18:38after everything she put me through
18:39i can see why you'd want to call jasmine out
18:44but i need my daughter free
18:52um
18:54well whether you've brought them up or only just found them
18:59a mum is still a mum
19:02i don't think i even have the right to call myself a mum
19:08i've failed jasmine
19:10i've failed my son
19:12wherever he is in the world
19:14i hope he never comes near me
19:17because he is better off without me in his life
19:21i was kidding myself if i thought my kids needed me
19:25the best thing i ever did was give them up at birth
19:30i think that you know
19:32how bad a mum i was with sean and stacy over the years
19:36i was focused on my own feelings for many reasons
19:39and um
19:41yeah i regret that no no
19:43my therapist said not to use the word regret
19:45i acknowledge that
19:46but you've got a great relationship with stacy now
19:49have i
19:50you know
19:53yeah yeah
19:55yeah yeah i have
19:58it's a heck of a lot of work though
20:02maybe we could work on our friendship relationship you know
20:06not that there is one at the moment but
20:14i think you're wrong
20:17in not deserving to be a mum
20:21you deserve a second chance with your children
20:25like i had with sean and stacy and it made all the difference
20:30i i i could support you in that
20:32you know if you wanted me to
20:34oh yeah you probably do
20:39i'd like that
20:50hey shrimpie lovely to meet your mum for the first time what do we call you darling crabby
20:55enjoy it
20:57do you know
20:58do you know if i'd ever been blessed enough to have children i would have spoilt them rotten
21:02hmm i really spoilt johnny
21:04well i mean we nearly lost him after he was born it was touch and go
21:08made him all the more precious
21:09this is supposed to take our mind off johnny not rub our nose in it

24:49I'll pay you back.
25:03Nan!
25:08Wait until I'm leaving to show your face.
25:10Sounds about right.
25:12I was with a friend.
25:14A stranger more like.
25:16Brunette, blonde, boy or girl?
25:20Boy. Blonde. Mike. Matt. Definitely blonde. And a boy.
25:33Do you still hate me?
25:34For your mate, almost firebombing your mum's house.
25:39He wasn't a mate.
25:40Oh. Well, that makes all the difference. As if I could hate him. He's a daft idiot.
25:50You need to find someone nice and settle down for a bit.
25:56How much do I love you?
25:59Turned me in and back.
26:04Don't you ever forget it?
26:09I know who you're thinking of right now.
26:13Yeah. Yeah, she was the best, Grant.
26:17Family was everything to her.
26:19Yeah. Mother-in-law from hell, but...
26:22Yeah. Fantastic, Grant.
26:26She would have loved today.
26:29Happy Mother's Day.
26:32Love you, Mum.
26:33Love you.
26:36I dabbled a bit back in Florida, you know.
26:41Executive fleet cars from businesses.
26:43They always need upgrading.
26:45And it's a tax write-off for them, so you can pick up a bargain and then you can mark
26:50it up.
26:52All right.
26:53Well, just let me know when you get a car in then, yeah?
26:56I've got my own one already.
26:58All being well, I reckon I can get a chair tomorrow morning.
27:03Okay.
27:04Yeah, great.
27:06Ain't you got to ask your dad first?
27:08No.
27:10It's my business.
27:11Good.
27:13I'll call you tomorrow.
27:15Mm-hmm.
27:21Mm-hmm.
27:22Mm-hmm.
27:23Mm-hmm.
27:24You
