Settle
Settle down girls. Nick was always the opposite for us, helpful, rounded off the total, discount where possible, where he was having some luck, what he was up to. Ranger camping in Ossie Park went through a little glory period for us, but then it went down hill with some shoddy staff after Nicko moved on. I wouldn't know what he's been like on tv as I haven't seen any FWA.
