Day 24 - A Romantic Night In

Yesterday Kelvin and Swannie won a special prize in the Group Hug task. A romantic dinner for two. Just for the occasion, the patio in the garden was converted for al fresco dining whilst the other housemates remained locked inside the house.

Kelvin and Swannie's evening started very light heartedly with them both making jokes about their waiter being ex-housemate Marvin. Of course there was no waiter, just moonlight and roses and dinner.

As the evening progressed the topic of conversation moved on to more serious matters as they discussed climate change, recycling and other ecologically aware topics close to Swannie's heart.

At the end of the evening, Swannie thanked Kelvin for a lovely evening and went to bed early whilst Kelvin stayed in the garden and watched the stars.

Day 23 - Spa-tastic

The monster housemates won a selection of luxury spa treatments as their reward for completing this week's task.

They've been sipping champagne and giving one another monster pedicures. Swannie is wearing a mud mask and Terrence is using a teeth whitener, Hector just exfoliated and Kelvin has agreed to let Swannie paint his nails.

Ganymede
may have overdone the horn polish though; he says his horns feel "loose"!

Day 23 - Two hours and Twenty Minutes?

After Hector got huffy and left the Group Hug task, Ganymede started to seem uncomfortable, and muttered things like "it's the decent thing to do" and "like a gooseberry".

He broke away from the hug, just as Terrence realised what was going on.

"Don't" said Terrence, but it was too late. "You have to be touching TWO other monsters at all times for the hug to be valid. So that's the end of the task."

Ganymede was very embarrassed "I'm so sorry, I completely forgot about that...I just...er..."

Swannie and Kelvin were still hugging. "Let's wait for conformation from Monster Big Brother" said Swannie.

Day 23 - Another One Bites the Dust (bunnies)

Kelvin thinks that the Group Hug task should be renamed the "Group Moan" task as ever since the monster housemates have been hugging, everyone has had something to moan about.

Hector's current complaint is that he keeps getting Ganymede's fluffy fur in his mouth. Ganymede's reply that he should perhaps keep his mouth shut, was not well received. Neither was Kelvin's request for them to be patient and relax, this just led Ganymede to call Kelvin a hippy. Swannie says she wants to sit down because her legs are aching.

And there goes Hector. "I have had enough of this nonsense" he says as he lets his arms drop and gives a big stretch.

So just Kelvin, Swannie and Ganymede left now.

Day 23 - Terrence is Out (of the task)

Terrence finally gave in and after apologising to his fellow monster housemates he broke away from the Group Hug task and ran to the bathroom.

Ganymede, Hector, Kelvin and Swannie have now been hugging for one hour and 38 minutes. How much longer can they last?
