Time to take out that subscription, methinks.....

Here my deer. Beside Lake Ullswater this afternoon......

Anyone with the moniker "modernsoulsucks" can't be all bad. Nice one Rod.

They need to give us a bit of notice Mal. The old ice cream suits need to be dug out of the bottom of the kit locker, then washed and pressed. The shoes need blancoed. "Hands to bathe" is more impromptu, where the crew get the chance to swim in the ocean. Just after one such occasion, a shark turned up.

No Baz, I sling my hammock under there.

Everything is well in the garden......

Affect.

I think the saying is "I wouldn't wear that even if you paid me", but that's obviously not the case for these wannabes.

People, the dancers in the video don't own the clothes they are wearing. The fact that it's promoting Gucci is a bit of a clue.

Naff clothing range launches naff advertising campaign.

Don't think the special effects budget would have covered it.

This was the scene on Blackpool seafront a few weeks later...
