We're back!

Quotes of the week

Our summer holidays are officially over and we're all back and raring to go again... well sort of!

The show kicks off again in just over a week and we've got a couple of new additions for the season in the form of Simon and Bobbie, as well as our new presenter Max.

All the guys seem to be settling in well and Bobbie in particular has been raising the fashion stakes after he walked in with a particularly sharp pair of shoes this morning! We get the impression that he's a bit of a player, but he assures us he's not...

The rest of us are back in the swing of things after a jam packed summer, which saw Lisa rubbing shoulders with the stars in L.A. and Chris' becoming a Holland fan at Euro 2008, while Baby Elvis and James partied like it was 1999 in Zante, Malia and Ibiza!

It's common knowledge now that James loves a good dance-off but he upped the ante in Malia by entering one dressed as a girl! Naturally he won and was crowned Miss Malia 2008! We can't wait to see the pictures from this one.

Not all of us have been sunning ourselves during our breaks though and Graham's summer of DIY doesn't seem to have gone quite to plan after he admitted that his house 'looks like a bomb's hit it'!

Graham is under pressure to get everything ready with a new arrival into the Lewis family expected in just three weeks! Unfortunately for him his wife and daughter have left him to get on with things, although they did leave the cat which was nice of them!

After a few stag holidays and his trip to Switzerland early on in the summer Chris spent the rest of his time relaxing or 'like an old fart' as he puts it. As well as fishing most days he's decided to start growing his own vegetables in his garden (the credit crunch is hitting us all!)

We're all for being green but we're not convinced Chris has the green fingers required to pull it off after he brought in a mutated tomato that he had grown in his garden.

Other than them both being red there aren't many similarities between a regular tomato and Chris' one, which is so bizarre looking it has half the office scared to death, especially Tubes who refuses to go within 10ft of it.

That apart everyone is in pretty good spirits although we have had some bad news since we came back after Tomb revealed he was immigrating to New Zealand!

In truth it's actually more of a sabbatical because he's only going for nine months, but he will be sorely missed. Luckily we've still got two months before he leaves so we should be able to get out our money's worth out of him.

See you next week!
