good to see Rich finally admitting his gay tendencies, 'The Bi man' is finally out!

Congratulations in regards to the job hunt Stevie I feel like a proud father! Yeah mate.

YOWSER!!! Hello guys, after 2 months of neglect and hibernation I am officially back in the loop! Thanks, for AT LAST letting me know your Travel things! Rob youre such a large OUEF! Looks like youre both having an amazing time, Ive started going through all youre photos and entry updates but finish it off later. Was crying at your 5 a side footie one! Anyway, Ive just got on a Grad Scheme placement as a Chartered Surveyor in Manc (I know what a titting joke!) I should be starting very end of August meaning I could be flying south like the preverbial Geese in the next fe weeks! I'll keep you updated, hopefully might tie in a meet up before u head back. Anyway guys, take it easy, keep up the good work and Ill hopefully see u soon! MY FACE! xx

haha as if you cant say deek van dyc (spelt wrong intentionally)

48 hours to go til THE BIG ONE against buuurmingum, though after our 'battling' (i.e. rubbish) display against albion i for one ain't looking forward to it........................................sorry just got distracted by d*** van dyke tap dancing on diagnosis murder. anyway i've got the day off and i'm proud to be spending it leaving messages like this on the internet. Continue to have a good time sonny boy, and its squared square for stauntooooooooooooooooooooooooon

Yo wassup ma homey from the warsaw pool hall? Can't believe you actually got to meet Max, I would sell my little Right toe to get my dirty mitts on him. He is the don. Anyway, I managed to get a sneak preview of th new England world cup song, and it turns out Rio Ferdinand is doing a John Barnes-esque rap for it, and here it is:

"You've got hold and push
and do it at the wrong time,
you can be slow and crap
if you concede then it's fine.
They'll always call you and tell you
'We're gonna do some tests'
There's only one way to beat them
Say you forget
Drop me if you can
Cos I'm United's man
And what you're lookin at
Is a waste of space
I'm just not good enough
This ain't a football song
Ten zero's on my cheque
I know I can't go wrong..."

In the words of Fonzy! HEY (guys)! It sounds proper
BO down under, and the pics look great! Rob, I'm loving the insane faces in the pics. Your impression of a grasshopper is most amusing. If I saw you on Wildlife on One with old David Atters I would think it was a real grasshopper! Woooo! I would also be scared of the shear size of it. And Jen, please feel free to slap Rob's face back into shape if he makes those faces too often. But serously, it looks wikid guys, much better than the ghetto of New Cross. I also can't believe Rob that you're all the way over in Australia, and still able to play some 5-a-side! I'd love to be playing some right now. That's dedication to the game son, it seems like years since I last played. Ahhh! Looking forward to seeing and hearing more from you.

Just about to slot in a new update and some photos if the computer will let us. What a piece of crap.

As for the marker, it's so horribly inaccurate, i'm treating it as a lost cause. What's the point in having such a feature if it places you, on average, 250 miles away from where you actually are. Brilliant.

On another point, come on the villa! 3 defeats on the bounce, i think if the players put 100% in during the coming games, we can go for a club (and maybe even world) record no. of consecutive defeats. Thank god Sunderland, Pompey and Small Heath are so bad.

A bit of holiday cash for dave from the roulette wheel at the renedevous casino in Brighton for Me: £150 quid up for the night, would have been £300 - if it wasn't for the unlikely 12 blacks in a row. I definately got mugged by all those blacks (in the box??). Good job the green zero rolled in four out of ten times though - GO GRREEEEEENNNN! Shaun Teale will be turning in his grave.

4-1 Everton today, which means 5-4 Villa on aggregate - like that makes it better. Your GPS positioner is rubbish - did you throw it to the fish in sydney harbour? Theyve scarpered with it off the coast - go and get it back. now - NOW.

Son according to your map you appear to actually be living on a boat just off the coast of sydney, either that or an underwater cove?

Great to hear from you, I've noted your list of requirements and will squeeze those in somewhere! Got our tickets etc yesterday, we need to know your flight details (Flight No and arrival time) for arrival in Christchurch as theres a pick up arranged as part of the tour we've booked. Let us know asap. Hope you are enjoying Sydney, its great you've got the tickets for the Commonwealth Games. Wear something distinctive then we can see you in the crowd! Hope the dosh is lasting but let us know if there is anything you need. Thanks again for the card. Love Mum

Rob you red-faced b******! Looks like you and the Jenster have got piles... ...of beautiful memories, wooo! I hope you've made the effort like a proper backpacking b****** and learnt the language, I'll be testing you on the Australian for "that's rather weighty" when you get back. Oz looks about 3644% better than South London (probably the same proportion of English people as well), especially as there's a fat Irish builder in my bathroom this morning and I've got a dissertation to write by next week. Keep spreading the good word of Dr Paisley down-under, those stupid Aussie policies disgust me! Put another shrimp on the barbie for your old pal Ellman! Good times, good times....
