Patrick Well Del, lovely to hear from you over Christmas, lucky b******!! While you were lying on a beach we were -8C, Karina, Justin & myself sick over Christmas, Karina ended up in hospital and I'm now back to work.....wonderful! As you can see you've embarrased me into the 21st Century, I'm now officially 'Bill Gates' part II, the new e-mail address is [email protected] and I won't have to wait for this God awful site anymore to contact ya as your jovial comments and pictures of your worldwide travel only give me indegestion. Talk to ya soon. P. (P.S. It's a wonderful world!!! when one of your X's is just about to depart the Continent of Australia and another X's inbound flight is imminent)

Patrick Del, what's the story, is the box room ready for me in Australia yet? Get a move on with my room or the whole inernet will be informed of our underworld experiences in Croatia, Prague and Cuba!!!! And you'll be dodgin (not doggin) Interpol extradition warrants for the rest of your life!!!! Saw the pics of China, Egypt and Jordan would love to go to Petra myself, please send me the money for same, Australian dollers will do! See ya soon bud. Patrick James Alan Kiaran Sharkey-O'Leary
