Sussex Barmy Army is now on-line - having looked back at the images, I think it is safe to say that spending the entire day eating and drinking fruit can safely be described as a mistake
The new McCarthy-Chapman project is now underway, and can officially be revealed as http://www.wearebrighton.com. This website will, we hope, become one of the premier Brighton and Hove Albion websites out there, hosting not only match reports and previews and all other standard issue stuff you find on footballing websites, but also Crocs on Tour and a brand new, official Albion Moan In. After the couple of pilot shows we did last season were a relative success, especially with Ian Hart, host of the real fans phone in calling up, we have decided to make a bit more of a go of it next season. Unlike most of our other joint venutres down the years, this one looks like it might actually take off. Whether the dream of becoming rich and powerful through it occurs remains to be seen
A couple more Feeling Randy podcasts are on the way, and apart from that I can't think of anything else that has happened

Well minions, McCarthy has now completed his second year of university. It has flown by, and it is worrying to think that this time next year I will have to enter the real world, unless I can find a way of conning the government out of a load of money, ala Peter Chapman. This has been the reason behind the lack of updates, as revision has taken priority for my ONE exam, as well as the small matter of a trip to Munich, which is now available to view in the adventures section. There is going to be a plethora of updates on the way, as three lots of Crocs on Tour was added today, as well as the first Sussex Barmy Army outing of the season to be added at some point. This was the infamous day in which £65 was spent on simply fruit and veg, as we attempted to consume only foods and drink that would go towards our five a day - resulting in 31 a day being consumed
McCarthy returns to the Hill the first weekend in June, before heading back to Cheltenham a week later in order to partake in a charity football tournament. Being the Minor Celebrity that I am, it was no surprise to be approached to play in this event, and I am only too happy to help out. I can't actually remember what the charity is, but it is something to do with a child. Fear not, once I know you will be informed
Disaster definitely struck two weeks ago, when McCarthy lost/had stolen/had taken by Rumble who in turn lost it, his mobile. Naturally, when you are as popular and in demand as McCarthy, this is nothing short of a disaster. Luckily, once Vodafone and the local MCL shop got wind of this, they were only too happy to supply me with a new model within days. As if this bad luck wasn't enough, the McCarthy Mobile then this week suffered a total break down of the braking system, which has resulted in a costly repair job. Luckily, a nice piece of haggling saw me cut 20% off the original bill, and Iceland placing in second place in last nights Eurovision Song Contest certainly aided things as well thanks to my betting spree
Unfortunately, I am not sure how many updates will occur over the summer, as McCarthy and Chapman are putting the wheels in motion on yet another project. This one has potential to be a real money earner, unlike some of the other, quite frankly, bollocks ideas we have come up with other the years in order to become rich and powerful. Watch this space
