And no, I don't have a sixth sense.

It's the talk of the town in cyberspace! Malawian Hazel too is taking a minimalist approach to showering, as is LaToya.

But at least they've apparently reached out and touched the water.

Wondering if the rainforest decor hasn't done in Uti and Morris.

Maybe the faux lounge foliage - green leaves, creeping vines and faux green grass - has brought on a case of jungle fever.

Hey dudes, this is not 'Survivor Africa'! And no, you do not look like Marlboro men.

Hella, if they don't get to it soon I predict mud on the water when they eventually decide to stop doing the natural disaster thing.

Come to think of it, could this be why LaToya is doing a timesharing scheme thing with the unwashed Morris and Aqua Man Ricco? She's all over Morris during the day, and allows Ricco to share her bed at night.

Doubt that any girl, let alone the ring-me, bling-me LaToya, would want the makings of a dust storm in their bed - it would give playing the field a whole new meaning! Morris's dust and her hair twists could lead to, well ...

a mini twister! THE ART OF BEING AND BYATCHING Hmmmm, generally Morris seems to be losing some of his shine.

He came in to rave reviews as one of the house hunks but the volume switch appears to be on mute at the moment.

Keep having to pinch myself and say early days, it's still early days.

Just for the record, our girl Lucille and Ghanaian Mimi - they're bikini bathers - lead the field in the clean stakes, though Lucille reportedly caused a minor stir by talking about her menstrual cycle in the shower and giving Munya something of a lesson in the process.

Not sexy, girl! While on Lucille, she let on yesterday that she didn't study 'The Art of War' by Sun Tzu ahead of entering the house.

She told Sheila and Mimi she has no game plan, is there for the ride and plans to go with the flow.

Eish girl, watch your back! It's one thing to go with the flow, but just make sure you're not hustled and flowed.

Mimi, on the other hand, appears to be very up on the bloody manoeuvrings of 'The Tudors'.

Yeah, the house's resident Whitney Houston wannabe is showing that she is not only about providing jukebox moments.

You can almost see her mind working overtime, and already there's talk of her backstabbing Lucille.

Not sure what brought that on - have to apologise you all: I've been a bit taken up with the Democratic Party convention in Denver this week.

But did hear Mimi byatching on about the meaning of byatch.

And boy was she blading it.

SPIN THE BOTTLE, FULL THROTTLE Mimi also seems to have it in for Sheila, who, during a game of spin the bottle, dispensed kisses as freely as Namibian hospitals dispense Panados.

The Kenyan reporter appears very adept in the liplocking department - yeah, the journalistic fraternity are in the frontline when it comes to multi-skilling! South Africa's Thami, though ...

what to say? Let's put it this way: what do you get when you cross a Hoover with a slurpy?! Biggie needs to DHL him a copy of 'The Art of Kissing', post haste.

Lucille kissed TK! Why I don't know, but everyone seems to think it was "a good move".

Still waiting ...

TK really seemed to be in the action on Wednesday night: he also helped LaToya take her puppies for a walk.

Ai, truth or dare! Otherwise, Sheila scored a first - she had a bit of a run-in with 'The Voice', otherwise known as Biggie.

She had to do penance of 10 minutes' solo exercise for not participating in the morning training.

Ricco? Well Ricco's being Ricco.

So far he and Sheila have shown themselves to be good sports.

Though I do have a bone to pick with Ricco.

He thinks they're so entertaining that Big Brother needs to increase the prize money.

Puhleeze! The Angolan may be feeling himself but I'm not totally feeling this house yet.

They're a pretty pick, but the viewing's not gripping - for now anyway.

Drama is in short supply.
