But unlike Hira we can see her

After the row with Bea this morning, Noirin retreated with Isaac, leaving her opponent to try and win over some supporters from the other housemates. One housemate, though, is not going to be won over by anybody.

"I don't wanna really defend Bea," Lisa told David in the Garden. "I know exactly what she's like. She won't pull the wool over my eyes."

Lisa took her usual seat at the bus stop and carried on. "I'm keeping out of it," she continued. "I've got my issues with what I think of Noirin. I've dealt with it. I've totally just let her ignore me. I've just left it. That's what you do - just walk away and ignore it. I know the people whose corners I'll back and who I won't," she concluded.

When Charlie joined them, Lisa took the opportunity to reiterate this. "As I was saying to David, Noirin's not really spoken to me," she explained. "When Bea came in this House she was all 'Noirin, Noirin, Noirin'. She hardly spoke to me. Now she wants me to back her up and listen to what she wants to say about Noirin."

Moments later Bea joined them on the bench and the conversation fizzled out into a long silence.
"You're keeping quiet Lisa!" noted Bea. "I don't think I've ever seen you so quiet."
"Really?" said Lisa, seemingly amazed. "You know me. I have my views and opinions. I've been in here - I know."

And that was the end of that conversation. Amazingly. Lisa, a woman of few words? We never thought we'd see the day.
