Lucy, I feel that you have summed it up wonderfully. And dare I say, that WE have given Nicholas and Katie the best years of OUR lives...I ask you, one and all, are we any better off than Brainy? I think not...

Thank you Morten. Poor old Brainy. You are right, clearly Nick doesn't care about him anymore. And to think, Brainy gives him the best years of his life and then Nick takes a penguin around the world with him instead.... how humiliating.

I think that much is obvious Mort - you only need to look at the pictures to see that Nick is now eligible for the next icelandic belly-slapping championships!

Lucy, Brainy is a little mouse that Nick has had since he was little whippersnapper. It used to go every where with him...but not around the world. You can imagine how Brainy felt about that i am sure...Please now to see that Nick obviously doesn't care about him, as he received no mention in the blog...I guess going around the world changes a person...

'Usurped by the penguin' - I like that one Mike! Another update on English affairs - it appears that they have a new brain on eggheads, I haven't watched it for a while so this may not be a recent thing, but he is pretty rubbish - watched it a couple of nights ago and he kept shouting out wrong answers.
Happy St George's Day.

Your pics just keep on getting better, with the exception of shots of your bites Katie. You are both looking rather healthy now with your tans. Only jealous! Mum e mailing you as we speak. xxx

Nice to see the bracelet in the pics - clearly it has survived the underwater diving!!
Glad you are both having a good time, bit concerned about the amount of money being spent on 'nic naks' though... surely money would be better spent on 'presents for Lucy'.....
Guy - was also very distressed about the whole Moyles leaving article - thankfully it was in The Sun though so is clearly not factual.

Ps. Who is Brainy?

wow you have done SO much now! The diving sounds geat fun. Well done nick!
I am sad to hear of your troubles coops. And hope your swellings are now gone and you're back to having fun fun fun!!!

Seeing a reference to Brainy, I decided to check he was OK. Unfortunately, I can't find him anywhere and can only presume he has left home because his nose is out of joint because he has been usurped by the pengiun

hey hey nixon wow been looking @ your pic's there amazing i wish i was there work is so very dull the weather has been good though about 20 degres every day this week good times......missing your crazy antics peace and love stay safe ashton

Col, I think you made a typo in your last message - you inadvertantly put 'V.GOOD news', instead of 'BAD news', you must have been busy or something.
Update anyways - Chris Moyles is supposed to be staying on the morning show, papers got it wrong, huzzah!

Carrie's Thoughts and Questions

1. did you fire at any grannies with your water pistols

2. can you try dance YMCA in the water next time you dive (although i cant see it, it will make me laugh)

3. if you choke a smurf, what colour will it turn?

4. and finally when you return i will be now living in london
