Zippy Free!

Well, just in time to run off again, my dad is free!

Zippy safely returned with David Coe to Chemistry Digital today, and has immediately left to go to James and Caroline's wedding which takes place tomorrow.

When asked about his ordeal, Zippy remarked "I'd rather not speak about it, being tied to a chair is bad enough, but listening to those accents all day is torture!"

Update: Zippy Kidnapping - Ransom

Well it took us all day but the guys at Chemistry Digital finally pulled through and made the Rainbow video...here it is



Now send my dad back you evil b$%?$*@s

Update: Zippy Kidnapping

As the evil girls at Chemistry have kidnapped my father I feel it my duty to keep you all up-to-date on the latest...

We have received a ransom demand in the form of an email from Mags Pietras (see below). The police believe that Mags is one of the lower level terrorists, but they don't know who the ring leader is yet.

We are working on the acquiring the ransom as we speak.

Oooh new pool table

My Dad will be gutted! While he's swanning off with his new friends, Chemistry Digital has bought a pool table! So now we can spend all our dinner hours potting reds and sinking yellows.

Just have to make sure I don't get hit, those balls are huuuuge!

I have forgiven Son of Zippy

I have decided to forgive Son of Zippy.

After I told him off earlier he showed me how hard he had been working finding me new Facebook friends, running a drawing competition, and updating my Flickr Account and Blog!

Check out what he's been up to:

He's also been working with Mat and Mark to build the Chemistry Digital Awards pages and a brand new look Life of Zippy website!!! COMING SOON!

Canada, and my naughty son!

Hi guys! I'm back from my trip to Canada with Karen and Andy. Wow! What a long plane journey it was too. But I was happy, because I had my walkman and the Fratellis album!

So I'll tell you a little bit about my trip, but first I've got to apologise for my sons behaviour! Since I've been away he has been a bit naughty and went to Glastonbury and got drunk at Mark and Marie's wedding, no doubt making a fool of his self!

So, below are some pictures from my trip to Canada, hope you like them, we went all over British Columbia (Vancouver, Hope, Princeton, Glacier National Park, Banff etc.) and I managed to see a Grizzly bear with cubs. She was pretty grouchy so we had to run, but not as fast as we ran from the American tourists who all wanted a piece of me! I didn't realise I was famous over there too!

Son of Zippy goes to Glastonbury

Well being as my Dad's in Canada he had no choice but to let me go to Glastonbury and I had a great time! (The girls were just loving the orange man!)

It was so muddy I could've drowned, but Vicky and the girls really looked after me and helped me enjoy loads of massive artists like Arctic Monkeys, Killers, Kasabian, Shirley Bassey, the Magic Numbers, Just Jack, Bloc Party and my favourite, the Fratellis.

I DIDN'T WATCH MIKA!

Anyway here are some pictures of me and the mud...

Major hangover!

Ouch!With my Dad away in Canada, I had to represent the family at Mark and Marie's wedding on Saturday.

I had a great time and more importantly so did the Bride and Groom. (I'll post some pictures when I get some.)

Unfortunately Mark was a bad influence on me, and I drank far too much sambuca for a small guy, so now I have a really bad hangover.

But keep it to yourselves, because if my dad finds out, I'll be in trouble!

Oh Canada!

Zippy CanadaWell I'm back from the Isle of Wight Festival, and it was AMAZING. But I'll save that story for another day.

As of tomorrow, I'll be on holiday for three weeks, in Canada with Karen B, so Son of Zippy will be taking over the blog until I get back. Hopefully his life will be as exciting as mine, but just in case, I've left him a few pictures to keep you all entertained...

Zippy in Die Hard...for instance, with the upcoming release of Die Hard 4.0 we've been working on a tribute with myself playing Jon McClane.

As well as that the guys at Chemistry will hopefully be able to add some of the Zippy 2.0 stuff they promised me, now that the Slim.Fast website is live.

So for a while, it's Adios (or whatever they say in Canada), hope you don't miss me too much!

My son, the Marathon Man

Yes, while I was on holiday with Mark & Marie, my boy was running the London Marathon in 25 degree heat wave! He was helped along by James, a friend of Simon B, and managed the course in 5 hours 7 minutes 23 seconds - faster than Gordon Ramsey!

He said, "It was very hot but all the fans cheering me on helped loads. Thanks to all that sponsored me too." He raised a total of 25p for the charity 'Good Old Days' for ex-television presenters who are on hard times, like Keith Chegwin.

Here are some photos from the day...

Thank you for your donations





Thanks for finding my son, now we are reunited we can count all the donations you made in our search. I'm pleased to tell that we managed to raise a total of £100 which includes the money raised by Chemistry by eating lovely cakes provided by Emmeline and wearing costumes or not!



I hope everyone enjoyed it!

My Son Has Gone Missing on RND07!

Where is SOZ(Son Of Zippy)? Where have you gone? Looks like I will need the help of all my friends and enemies at Chemistry to find my son, of all the days to go missing you decided to do it on the Red Nose Day :-( The team at Nottingham have helped create an interface to discover where my son has hidden, and for each person to find him I will denote a pound to RND because I need to see that my son is safe and sound. For those people not lucky enough to have been given the link to find SOZ I will upload some images to show what is going on - come on team, please find my son and quickly!!








And just to show you where my son sometimes likes to hide, here are some old pictures of him stuck in the fan - hope no one turns it on. And hiding in the fridge - guess the kid can't get enough milk.

Son of Zippy


More Son Fun
My Son and I
I took my son into work today to show him what I do and where I work. I think he was well impressed with all the happy people here, which reflects how good a job I'm doing.

Not sure if I'll be taking my son on holidays with me because it might be a bit too dangerous, I nearly ended up in prison when I jumped on the sculpture in the
museum at Oslo.

I think Evil Ross (background) is daydreaming about putting me in the bin :(
