Villa were pretty poor, but unfortunately not as poor the Brums...

Glad to hear you both got there safely and it sounds like your havin fun, keep the post cards comin, and maybe a few pictures?!!

this is for everyone who was going to post comments on Aston Villa´s result last night, i know they are rubbiosh but you know how it is with West Ham going straight back down again we thought we´d give them a glimmer of hope...or something like that! by all accounts they fully deserved the result and Villa as usual were lacklustre and just generally poor. Ah well it´s good to here that life goes on back home when i´m not there! Baaaaad villa, ah well going to a fluminese game tmoz in the copa libatadores think i might support them now!

Apolgies for the tears at the airport but that's what Mum's do. I am so impressed that you have found time already to write a postcard. Have fun, be safe, look after each (David, remember Tom's threat!) and keep in touch. Missing you already. Mum
