How did anyone think this was a good idea?! Are the bubbles made of cotton wool? At least they gave the mannequin a glass of wine I guess.

    Is it staging or could their bathroom just be like that? It’s not a weird thing to do - one Festive period I left and inflatable doll wearing a Santa hat in a bath outside my front door. It was a definite talking point until Mary disappeared mysteriously on New Year’s Eve. I like to think someone woke up on New Year’s Day with a shocking hangover and some serious questions about what the hell they got up to the previous night.

      As delightful as Mary sounds (and I hope she and her NYE buddy are happy together!) I definitely think it’s weird - assuming you don’t live in a university town. Funny weird, but weird. The fact that Mary was in your garden and was dressed festively makes it less slightly less strange - everyone has a different approach to Christmas decorations after all. But putting an inflatable doll in a bathtub full of cotton wool so you could take photos to entice people to buy this house… SO fucking weird!

      All the new-found responsibility from around Christmastime probably just caught up with her, and she had to get out of there
