Welcome to Nick’s News 2024 – as you can see I’ve given it a shiny new title as not EVERYTHING that is happening is horrible. Some of it’s quite nice, actually. Anyway – on with show!
They seek him here they seek him there – Where’s Nick? Has he become invisible? Has he been eaten by a black hole in space? No. Nick Arnold has just been too busy even to talk about his NEWS for 2024 until uh-February.
