Morning,

Each year when he can, Nigel likes to go and soak up the ambience of being ' a free man in Paris '. Various colleagues cover for him until he returns as will happen over the coming weeks.
But just now has has problems with back pain and indeed had to stand down from some filming on the ship that we were going to do in late August.Now Bob Lawrence and I will attend.
So Nigel is just resting until his discomfort eases.
Of course this is not enough for the Loonoracks who hear a comment and build it in to a tragedy with much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
