After setting the bar high could the lads up their game and keep on par with Chloe? Maybe our very own Wham! could reach such a feat? How about the Wham! boys with another fan in between them…?
Clearly not… Nice try though lads!
The team were all packed up and ready to go home, their flight departing at 6:45pm, leaving Barbados for an almost unrecognisable England. Landing early on the Monday morning to sub-zero conditions and snow pretty much everywhere! Some of the girls were still in flip-flops when they landed, it’s not like it was 0°C and pouring down with rain ladies!
