Sim-Nev...update!

The Sims 3 is out, and what a great game it is too. Our Nev has moved into the new town of Ben Bay - how is he getting on? Well, he prefers to be on his own and loves fishing and collecting things. Exactly like his real life counterpart!

Read on.....




A spot of fishing.. He caught a brown trout and a boot today.




Nev likes to read about trains while in his very brown house.





''According to this timetable, the 4a to the town centre should have been here ten minutes ago!''



What a sight! Nev proudly shows off his fashionable fawn clothing.

Stay tuned for more nev-ventures!

Whitstable Oyster Festival 2009 - With Kevin Ketley

Well.....it's been a glorious summer day and our Kev' was in Whitstable, Kent, to bring us coverage of the start of the annual Oyster Festival. A slight diversion from the usual sports programmes he covers - but nonetheless most poot-worthy!

The carnival atmosphere was felt around the harbour town, and Kevin certainly enjoyed the carnival atmosphere of the pubs after. He confesses he has never tried an oyster and never will. He can't stand the things. They remind him of his ex-wife apparently.

The BBC have Wimbledon and Football. We have Oysters.
So enjoy the summer with Kevin Ketley.

The signs are everywhere...

Here's one for you-know-who... ;)

The Primes!

It seems that our Neville has been around for a lot longer than one might first think! We managed to track down the titles for this 1957 U.S. comedy 'The Primes'.

So, Nev made it Stateside - hope they had a visitor centre.

Sadly, the show was cancelled after only 4 episodes. It was appalling.
Still, it doesn't matter - and that's all that matters!

Things That Make Nev Go Hmmmmm! #3 Visitor Centres

Continuing with our series of what makes Nev's teeth fall out with joy - we reach the humble visitor centre! Nev loves to hunt down these wherever he goes on his travels.

Nev commented '' If I go out and a place doesn't have a V.C., then I consider it a waste of my day and I vow never to return .....for a bit. They are a treasure trove of information....oooh, the smell of the maps..... pamphlets....timetables.....they're all there! They might even have tea towel and mug sets...oh my gravy''

It's safe to say that Nev loves a visitor centre.

Things That Make Nev Go Hmmmmm! #2 Trains!!!

Well, they had to be there. We're running down the list of things that make Nev drop his flask, and trains have got to get a special mention.

Nev says ''What is it about these beauties that capture my heart? Could it be the delightful play of the whistle as it goes through a tunnel and emerging in it's full glory the other side? Or is it the steam that hangs in the air and the exciting smells that penetrate the senses....or is it that I just love them! I don't know, nor care....give me a picture of a train now!''

Erm, okay Nev, here you go..... calm down a bit.

Munching-On-Sea Donkey Race Final With Kevin Ketley

Our sports commentator Kevin Ketley braved the summer sun last weekend and headed off to the coast to bring us coverage of the The Munching- On- Sea Donkey Race Durex Challenge Cup 2009.

It was a hot day, and even the donkeys looked a bit tired.....

The winner 'Abbots Ankle' came over the finishing line in a record time of 15 hours and 35 minutes.

The other donkeys, plus their riders, headed off to the nearest bar. I think we know who the true winners were that day......
