About as exciting as a baked potato

Get this. My darling brother is going to Greece for the summer. Free of charge. Hmpf.

A little background? My darling brother is 25 at the end of May. Don't get me wrong I love the stupid dufus, he is my baby brother, but he's always been the golden boy of the family. Everyone denies this but it is true. He was the one that went to university and the one that always seems to fall on his feet. And girls really like him, so he's never been without his own little band of groupies.

Anyway, the best thing he ever did was sling on his backpack and go off into the sunset to find himself. He found a nice American girlfriend but I haven't met her yet, but I hear she's lovely. And pretty. Grr.

So he's been all around the States, Canada, Europe and is currently in Goa, India - doing aid work of all things for the survivors of the Tsunami. I am really proud of him.

In India, he and Shelley (the GF) met a photographer for The National Geographic and have been hanging out with her. And this summer she goes to Greece on an assignment and she has offered for them to go! And they'll cover accommodation costs!

All I can say is: Jammy Bugger.
