Justine Clarke tells us how she stays silly

This week we’re joined by the divine Justine Clarke, who talks staying silly, watching her kids grow up and how children react when they see her in real life…Mel also shares what life is like in toilet training hell and Cassie tells us how she’s back from holidays with the kids – and is ready to take a holiday to recover.In the newsParents with children at Burrowes State School in QLD received an email last week which has left a bad taste in their mouths.New school principal has informed parents that as of term 4 – if they drop their kids at school before 8.30am – they must pay for the on-site before school care program which costs upwards of $2.60 per child.Some parents are outraged saying they can’t afford to pay up to $100 a month extra for half an hour. Mel thinks it’s fair, Cassie isn’t so sure!And, one couple from Belfast has got people talking with their very unique sleep setup.They’ve fashioned a 5.5-metre long bed that is long enough to comfortably fit the two parents and all of their four children, aged 11 to 5.Genius idea? Or total madness.
