Gerard says Sue asked if he was OK. He broke into tears because "nobody ever asked me if I was OK" and he was touched by that. #badenclayuke:

Gerard says he had a lot going on. He was trying to rebuild the business. They were very keen to buy out the rental side. #badenclay

Gerard says they had three children at school. #badenclay

He certainly seems in a good mood in that post too... (bucket)

I wonder if his reference to "an enjoyable day looking at houses" is a little wave to someone who might have experienced that with him... (bucket x2)

And refers to himself in that blog as a frustrated fighter pilot!
:floorlaugh:

Oh my good lord.... Now Toni is having anxiety attacks and passing out in the toilets at work, according to GBC. And he met her for coffee and told her he loved her - but he didn't. What a hero....!

Wasn't it Allison who was having anxiety attacks and passing out???

Somebody ask me if I'm OK, please - I want to see if I burst into tears at this end...

Aww Doc Are You OK? :loveyou:

Gerard says he and Allison went to see a marriage counsellor. Initially one in Bardon. #badenclay

Gerard says they saw her three times. They "didn't really feel a great connection with her". #badenclay

Gerard says counsellor talked about "the trauma that Allison had been through". Says some of her suggestions were "out there". #badenclay

Gerard says the next person they saw was Carmel Ritchie. Allison went first alone and liked her. #badenclay

Was he a pampered child? Sounds like it to me. My gosh, who reacts like this unless they are 12.

What's that got to do with the price of eggs? It was the local State school, not a private school, and it was about 2 minutes walk or 1 minute's drive from the house. Didn't even cost much in fuel!

Are you okay Dr Watson? haha

Seriously though, she wouldn't have asked if he was okay unless he already didn't sound ok!

12:46pm: Mr Baden-Clay reached out to Dr Flegg again in March 2012 to ask for a $300,000 loan.

Dr Flegg's friend Sue Heath returned Mr Baden-Clay's call.

Mr Baden-Clay said he broke down during the phone conversation after Ms Heath asked him if he was OK.

"Nobody ever asked me if I was OK," he told the court.

I guess a lot of people want to hear Geraaaard's epic life story.

When the prosecution get their chance to question him are they on a time limit and do they have a set number of questions they can ask ?

We may be here this time next year at this rate.....

Sorry if that's a silly question

IMO he knows he is going down for his wife's murder so wants his chance to tell everyone what a great person he is and has been .. Wants his moment go glory so to speak

Aww Doc Are You OK? :loveyou:

Bummer - thanks Amee. I just sniffled my way through three handkerchiefs - WWAAAAHHHHHh

Actually, I'm laughing - well, more of a quiet chuckle, really. If this weren't so sad and unbelievable, it'd be hilarious.

Gerard says he thought they'd go in together, but Carmel asked him to go in first. #badenclay



Gerard says he was asked to fill in a standard form, details about himself. #badenclay

Gerard says he told Carmel about his business, his involvement in organisations, his children. #badenclay

[marlywings]

I'm thinking the jury members, especially the guys, will be thinking what the hay is wrong with this person.

2.20pm: Gerard Baden-Clay said after the floods and the dissolution of the partnerships he needed to obtain finance to secure the business’ future.

He said he called his friends Peter Cranna, Stuart Christ and Robert Cheesman who helped him by each loaning $90,000.

Baden-Clay said he referred to the trio as his “advisory board” and before committing the funds they did an investigation of the business and its future.

He said the money was loaned on the proviso he not spend anything without first gaining approval from Mr Cheesman and on the basis that he gave them regular financial updates on the business’ progress.

“I was very confident in the viability of the business,” he said.

Baden-Clay said he felt confident the market would improve.

He said the business did not experience an “instant turn-around” upon the injection of funds but the net cash flow position slowly improved by mid-2011.
