Good result there Gary, you came through with flying colours 10 out of 10

However we have news coming in from Nathan about your strange eating habits? Gannet I believe is your nickname? Apparently you eat anything? REALLY? I think we should put this to the test when we get to Puerto Rico, I will film it as well! I am sure our long suffering viewers can send in a few recipes for you?

I did hear that Gary once said that he thought Avocados tasted like Spiders? How does he know what spiders taste like?

Good Luck Gary

Hello Gary, Not to be, this time, as it has been for the rest of the guys. but at
least what you have achieved out there was fair play,and friendship which some
of the locals have failed at so miserably.You gave your all and we back home
are so very proud of you. Enjoy your remaining time out there where it is warm
as it is so cold back home. Keep safe.
