Hi David, You certainly seem to be enjoying life, sounds brilliant. Well christmas is approaching fast and as usual I'm not ready! Claire's been out shopping and brought Poppy a present instead of you this year, I had to remind her you will expect one on your return.still i think the pink leg warmers will look better on poppy. (Not your colour.) Take care, With lots of love Lynn and family XXXXX

Mr Douglas, I'm not quite sure what to say!

After having a quick gander at the table as it stands I do believe the mighty Spurs are only three points off third spot and yourselves. Our seasons over...really? We'll see how it all turns out over the next few months but although we haven't had the best of starts we're still within touching distance of you! Plus we (Spurs fans) did not embarrass ourselves by claiming we had a chance of winning the title at the start of the season. Liverpool will do well to finish in the top half with signings like Pennant and Bellamy. Both should be playing Sunday League :-). Although I do agree with your first point, I can't dance to save my life lol! Anyway pal hopes all well, and you need to keep me informed of any goings-on from nights out up those famous golden steps!

Great photos, the house looks quality.

So England play good cricket for 4 days, then you and the boys show up and suddenly theres a collapse!! On behalf of all England fans please dont go to any more of the games!!

I find it funny that whatever continent your on the pest-machine never stops, although it seems you were really hell bent on licking someones face that night. Which reminded me of one of your uni stories, although it doesnt look like you had a nose bleed in any of those photos!!!
The journals are great reading mate, Keep up the good work!

Hope everything going ok.

I do have a couple of points I'd like to raise.

Firstly, I've seen you dance and therefore I think its fair to say whoever it was who asked for lessons was taking the piss. No doubt about it... it was obviously some ploy to get you into bed. Hope you didn't disappoint the young lady and lasted at least 2 full minutes.

Secondly, Spurs' Season is over. I do admire your commitment to 'biggin em up' before the game but don't forget I will be collecting my £10 from you come roundabout February when its confirmed.

Keep posting the entries! Speak soon.

One of those birds in your photos looks like ting-tong. Remember to check properly before engaging in conversation with "women"!

I'd suggest looking out for adam's apples, massive hands and deep voices. Also a nine o clock shaddow is a bit of a give away!

Belly
P.S. I see bobby's bits have caught up with you - you couldn't get away with that outstanding balance forever!

Hi Dave
Just a quick message to say we think you and Steph make the perfect couple. When are you bringing her home to meet the family?
Enjoy the cricket.
Night night.
Love Mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Chirpsinowski,

Lovin the work pal, I can just imagine how tucked in your thumbs must have been when you were talkin to the future Mrs Moore, it has made me chuckle. I know if you are doing it you should take a picture, Penkins will be in stitches.

Keep it up pal,

Don Voyage
