Hooky Just as I'm getting into this whole blog malarky, you two travellers extraordinaire decide to head on home! Anyway, so pleased that you've had an awesome time and am so pleased you're heading home (although I know you won't exactly be having the same sentiments). Nic, I know money's going to be a major factor when you get back, but just in case you win the lottery, date for your diary for my hen do is Fiday 9th - Sunday 11th May - Barcelona. I'd love for you to be there, but drop me an email when you land back in good old Blighty! Rxx

Can't believe it's only a couple of weeks till you're home,not that we're wishing your trip away but we can't wait to see you.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

win just to paint the true picture - City's Number 1 supporter didn't even watch the game. He was in IKEA, or something like that, with Andrea. He relied on me for updates - so anything regarding the game is second hand info. So in summary, I'm better than Nige. win

Nic G Stu, Am loving the blogs and am looking forward to your stories from the "The land of the long white cloud". Great to see the Cantabs gave you a night to celebrate with the 20/20 win over the Kiwis however looks like the Kiwis are still playing 20/20 in the 50 over game by thrashing your boys with 20 to go. Enjoy NZ and make sure your camper doesn't cause to bigger tail back. Cheers Nic G

Hart, Onuoha, Richards, Dunne, Ball, Ireland, Petrov (Garrido 87), Hamann (Sun 84), Fernandes, Vasse Stu, It was a momentus day at the theatre of dreams for the blue 3/4 of manchester, we first saw some good banter before the minutes silence - which was observed perfectly, bar the FC United disidents letting off fireworks outside the ground - We absolutley hammered them 1-2 Darius shoved goal pie in the face of Rio 'i dont do drugs' ferdinand then after another menacing cross by Martin Petrov, Benjani shouldered the ball past the ageing keeper van der sar to seal the win! All in all a good weekend we went to the strands who feed us to the max in fact i am still full! Spoke with win he must be telling you somthing different on these texts he sends you because all he tells me is he stays in watching tv if thats a good crac win has a 28" waist! Skin you are nothing without me. I think Chris was out on Canal street this weekend and is walking like a cowboy. He comes from Zimbabwe he plays for man city he score on derby day who ho oo Benjani!

mum and dad aber thanks for the vote of confidence nicola and stuart, you know the abers won't let you down! grreat blogs! As you wend your merry way back to Blighty I began to get all poetical, with apologies to Baddiel and Skinner. (Note to all posters please sing this to the tune of the 3 lions) "NIC AND STUART HAVE BEEN ON A TRIP FOREVER! THEY HAVE SEEN SOME SIGHTS,SOMETIMES GETTING IN A TETHER THE ADVENTUTRES ARE COMING TO AN END, TIME TO KNOW THE SCORE CAUSE NOW THEY CAN SAY THEY'VE SEEN IT ALL BEFORE THEY'RE COMING HOME THEY'RE COMING NIC AN STU ARE COMING HOME THEY'RE COMING HOME, THEY'RE COMING HOME THEY'RE COMING NIC AND STUART ARE COMING HOME! sorry you 2, couldn't resist just in case you didn't realise how I am getting beyond excited on the count down to the 22nd! Love mumxxx

win ott - glad you liked American Gangster. Watched it before Christmas, which makes me alittle bit better than you! I've already pulled Nige up on his rants regarding the Munich air disaster. Its sensitive subject matter, and certainly not something to be addressed on a ligh-hearted travel blog. Nige - go think about what you've done. Belle - the demise of "the s***e" is unfolding before our very eyes. Rafa is still 4 points beneath-us, and things are getting worse. I hope you keep hold of the fat spanish waiter - they can't change the rules this year if you don't make the top 4. (I can just imagine you saying " p*** o** winnie, you w****r!) Blue Mountains, Parbold Hill - same meat, different gravy. Although the land fill site gives off a very distinct odur, which probably gives Parbold the edge. win

AUNTY WENDY Well you two.... It's nearly time for home, only another 12days to go. You have both been on a fantastic journey and I am extremely jealous. Where is your next stop? I belive it is Fiji, then Los Angeles, finally San Francisco. 'Frisco' is quite a beautiful place, and Fisherman's Warf is very cosmopolitan. Dont forget to sing the great Mamma's and Pappa song 'If you are going to San Francisco be sure to wear some flowers in your hair... while your are walking the streets of San Francisco prentending to be Dan Tanner. Maybe all that lot is before your time..... Lots of love teresaxxxxx

Adam Stu, why do you write tales in such a poetic manner. How do you think Nige is supposed to understand? The poor lad wants to just look at your pictures. Reg Munich: Sir Bobby painted a beautiful picture of the devastation that took place on that night in 58. One that the SFB cannot associate with, as City have no history whatsoever that will endear more fans just join the so called Big 5. Anyway Stuuuu, golf is a game for gentlemen and one I believe you will grow to love. All tier oners play golf. Not much to update on apart from a good alcho free night out with The Skull this weekend. The boy was in fine form, quite simply the leathered beyond comprehension, and has also confirmed my fears that he is the gay one of the crew and not Stig. I did the Blue Mountains too you know, so when you come back and brag about all the places you've seen, remember this I did it too, and also was inside the 3 sisters!!! Hope all is well, Skin P.S It would make my day if I got a mention.
