hello everybody. This is Nicole, and I am here, sadly, today without Arabella, and the reason I'm here without Arabella is also kind of the reason that I am making a recording today, because I bet a lot of you are really surprised to hear anything from us, going:" Aren't you guys on a mid-season break? Why are you breaking all the rules? You're supposed to be resting, yes, well, things have happened that have meant that we are getting well, Bella's getting more rest than she had hoped, and I am getting less rest than I had hoped, but let's be honest, I don't rest, I'm not a rester as much physically. Anyway, what I am here to say to you, very inarticulately as always, is that, uh, Bella is not doing very well. Bella is quite ill. Her health is a bit of a tricky one. So I have some unfortunate news, which is not a big deal, don't worry. Like Bella's, Bella's gonna be fine, okay, um, but we will have to uh postpone um coming back after the mid-season break, which means the mid-season break is going to be a bit longer. We cannot tell you exactly how much longer, because we don't know, because this is one of those things where we don't know when we can get back to recording at the moment and all that. It won't be incredibly long. It's not going to be like the end of the world. You will see us back very soon or soon, we're saying. And in the meantime, we will be on our socials. You can send us messages on our website. You can still send them to us on our socials. We will still be speaking to you guys. Don't you worry. We will be doing some live videos when Bella is up for it, when she is back and we get back to recording and all that. We'll definitely set, do a little video while we're in England together, um over the holidays, and yeah, that's basically. That's basically the message.

But if I can say something that will be maybe make you a bit ier, is that I will, instead of those um thursday drops where we've dropped episodes, what I'm going to do is I'm going to drop a gag reel for each episode that we've already published, starting from episode one, to give you guys a bit of something to look forward to. Every thursday th. Even though it won't be a full episode, it will be a gag reel and it will be at most five to about eight minutes long, or something like that. I'm not actually sure . yet Just popped in here to tell you guys about all of that and we're very sorry about it. Like, this is partly the reason we created this line of work with Bella in mind is that she could work when she can, depending on her health, and also why we're in a partnership.

happier is not a one-woman show. I can't do an episode without Bella. Bella can't do an episode without me. We do this together, so when one of us goes down, unfortunately, the other one picks up the slack, but it does mean that we are in a bit of a stagnation for a little while, but it's going to be fun.

I I could see only positives coming out of this really sad situation. So we hope to be counting on your support throughout this time and for you to keep interacting with us, and we will keep interacting with you. All the best from myself and from Bella. She sends you all her love. I am the voice today, but you know she is here. She is here in spirit. Please send her some messages. She would really appreciate that. Some get well messages, lots of love. Don't you guys worry, we will be coming back. We will also be coming multiple times. I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. Okay, like, give me a break. I am still me. This is still UC , love you guys. Speak to you soon. Bye. Lyrics from Rathead: "
