Sorry ......

...... but this year, we don't have any of our, until now, obligatory film of Nigel embracing all the pleasures of a wonderfully warm Mediterranean ........

 ........ once you've got in!

He, as per usual, was more in the sea than on his sun lounger, but as there is a bit of a slope to get in the water, and remembering the near disaster of our camera getting splashed and a little damp last year, so had to be dried out on our balcony for several days until the shutter finally opened again ........

..... we didn't want to tempt providence, but believe me, the little fella was very at one with the waves and the fish, one or two of which were tempted to have a little nip of his tiny, but no doubt, alluring toes! 

So, instead here is a very short clip of him on the very cusp of the sea. Please ignore the single, disembodied leg to the right of the screen, it is NOTHING to do with us!!!
