Hi again,

Looks like you two won't get to see your cousin Adam (and Michelle) in Thailand then.

Big son's 16-day round world trip ends back in Belfast on the 3rd October, just in time for us to check out Crete to see if it's as good as Turkey was when (we all) were there in August!

Give those pesky beggars a kick for me! Maybe they could give you a job? Why not pose as an ex-Leper whose liverlihood was all but lost on being miraculously cured.....?

(Nev) Hello guys,

Well we?re still in India at the moment but I have managed to change the dates of our flights to Thailand for the 4th of October, so we only have nine days left here. (Yippee)

We have been going out with some ex-pats who are a good laugh.

Went out to a party last night for a woman called Kath it was her 50th. She used to run pubs in Manchester she is a bit of a nutter, must be to live here.  Her and her husband Noel have a bar over here they called in Custers, I asked why, he said because he?s surrounded by feckin Indians.

The Holidays season is just starting here and the beggar?s form out of state are starting to show up for the season. One of the ex-pats has told us not to give them anything she told us they have seen the wife and kids being dropped off buy the husband in the family 4 by 4, they then wipe dust and dirt on their clothes then go begging on the beach.  Another of the ex pats was pissed off one day and said to one of the beggars ?why don?t you get a job? and the women said ?why should I when I can earn more doing this? and then walked off and started begging to other people further down the beach.

Well on the 4th October we will be heading for Thailand. We have been checking the situation because of the coup that took place. (Beginning to think we might be Jinxed) the F.O. website says that it is still ok to travel, and Thomas cook is still taking holidaymakers there. Have also been checking the BBC website and that says the coup is a peaceful one.

We?re going to be in Bangkok for about 3 days then we are heading over to the east coast somewhere near the Cambodia border. As we will only have a 30-day tourist visa we will have to go to Cambodia, then on our return we will get another 30 days. After we have done this we will go and see the other side of Thailand, and will probably stay on an island called Ko Samui. While we are there we will cross into Malaysia and then back to Bangkok for our flight to Australia. (It?s a hard life but someone has to do it.)

(Patsyann)

Not much for me to say really, happy about leaving early even though the weather is improving there is still not much to do here and I don?t trust any of them to take us anywhere if there was!

The people we have met are a great bunch but they are brits not locals, one of them is gonna organise a lift for us into Panjim to pick up the new tickets which was really nice of them.

Hope all is well with you lot? Heard its been great weather in Germany,

With any luck Uncle Shaun and Maddy may meet up with us in Thailand as long as it?s not s*** there too! But if any of you want to take the risk you?ll know where we?ll be for the next 8 weeks.

Well that?s it for now, take care and write back soon, lots of love

Patsyann and Nev xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Heya!!

Nice to see you guys have found somewhere s***, makes me feel better for being stuck in the dreary UK! You cant have the sweet without the sour remember!

You guys are a pair of puffs anyway! You wanna try getting lost in Mafia-run Sofia all night whilst two guys are trying to kill you, everyone you meet is trying to drag you into the woods to mug you (including the Police!) with prozzies and pimps trying to coax you into brothels and little kids raiding your pockets every five minutes! All without any shoes or socks on! You'd sell your mother just be sat in Gregories with a cold beer...

Come to think about it, who in the rigth mind would buy ma?!

Things are goin great this end! Still lovin the job, Ive got to take 20 drunken horny girls around Leeds next week showing them the sights, starting drinking games, etc. And im getting paid for it! Dirty Job but someones gotta do it....

Ive managed to whittle the 11 numbers I got the other week down to two chicks (its like the X factor!) Lizzie is the 18 year old with the Porsche from Manchester but shes moving to Liverpool for Uni in a few weeks! She came up to Leeds last week and were spending this weekend at her dads apartment overlooking the quays! Steph is the underdog; shes the events organiser from Leeds who i pulled by telling her that her hometown is the a******* of the country! Shes trailing behidn lizzie in my chart so far but shes got a bangin little frame so she isnt voted off just yet!

The films side of things is looking up too! The new website and showreel should be finished soon and the director I worked with comes back from America soon with the a new film for me and a load of contacts in America! The guys that run the website in work have put me in touch with a media company who need music and a film company in leeds want to use me as an affiliate for second opinions and extra Freelance work! (I actually applied to them for work experience last year but couldnt do it and now were partners!)

Hope the weather gets better there and you guys continue to have a good time!!

(p.s. I would have loved to have seen pats fall down that ditch!!! haha! Jackie would have been on the floor through laughing if she were there!

So you have finally moved into more salubrious surroundings.  You will have to post some pictures on your website to show us how lucky we are.  No wonder there are so many of them in our country if the place is as you say!!  I am suprised that Nev didn't go off with that fella when he offered him the drugs and chicks!!  Maybe he is waiting for Thailand to get a bargain. 

You may want to review going to Thailand or at least keep up with the news as there a has been a military coup there and they are currently under martial law.  He has only happened in the last day or so and the FCO are advising Brits to be more vigilant and not to caught in any demonstrations as it could mean instant arrest!!  I am the bearer of bad news aren't I?

I have been feeling really s*** over the last couple of days.  Light headed and aching and all that sort of stuff.  I was that bad I even had the heating on full last night!!  I know, bad isn't it, I must've been ill!!  Kate has got it now though and is really suffering.  The child minder had to take Olivia to school this morning cos Kate has had D&V all night.  Personally I just think she is weak, I've just cracked on with it and soldiered on!!  Plus we've got a Troop do tomorrow night and I don't want to miss it!!

Well I will say cheerio for now and hope you are all well.  Speak to you soon,

The Macs

Whoops. hit the wrong button and got cut off!

Yeah so kev, your boy would love it. We have found a bar where a few expats go and we can,t understand why they would come out and live here but they seem like a nice bunch. we,ve been told that october will be much better as far as the weather is concerned and there should be more bars opening and we can do some trips and excursions so fingers crossed!

Hope all is well with you lot, Happy birthday james! and Happy birthday mum (on the 22nd)

well thats it for now you will here a lot more from us while we are here as the internet is the highlight of our day for now, take care lots of love

Nev went for a walk yesterday to find a gym and got stopped by some guy and asked if he wanted to buy some hash, cocaine or girls! He made a fast exit in case he also had ladyboys on offer. Wait for thialand for a bargin!

Its still really humid here but the heavens open all the time with out warning and we get soaked but at least we can say we have walked in the rain during a monsoon. We are in fiji on the 5/03/07 not tahiti as nev has put on the site, you can see where we will be over the next 8 months so if any of you want to meet us you,ll have an idea of where we are.

Kev, you shandy drinking puff, its great fun drinking with them. I was at woark all the time and still stayed up to early hours. Ha, speak soon mate.

Nev, read your artical on you arrival to Goa, not Annette Kev you cheaky f.....! ha. Sounds like you are having some bad luck, make sure you get that smelly P..i t*** who ripped you off. As for the accommodation, don,t forget has moved up a few classes now, so may be it was ok at that time, Ha only joking: hope things improve when you move on Wednesday 20th, as for the rain, buy a brolly tight arse, ha.

Well as for us, back to normal getting pissed all weekend and just few glasses during the week. Just got back from camping again, absoloutley brill, we was the only three tents set up, camp site and bar to ourselves, turned it into naked bar.

Abbie went to party at the weekend and got drunk, she was rough on Sunday, she is fine now though, will sign off for now take care, be safe. (Keep low, move fast watch your back). Love Buzz & Annette & Kids.

Hiya smelly!! 

 So you finally got there, I was getting quite worried about you at one stage especially when the bird at STA Travel said you didn't make the flight, lying b****!!  I was about to get onto the FCO and tell them what had happened but then you got in touch.  I have got their number now in case anything else happens. 

Well life here has got back to normal now you have gone and my liver is starting to recover from Annette and Buzz's visit then yours straight after.  The doc reckons I might just pull through!!

Gillan is still ruling our lives and s*** his pants yesterday much to my pleasure.  I was made up with it, honest!!  There I was just watching Utd get beat, preparing tea, then he goes and s***s his pants!!  KAte was at work so I had to clean up the mess myself, gutted!!

Olivia is loving her new school.  She thinks she's the big cheese, so we have to give her a few digs just to bring her down to earth.  She told me off the other day 'cos I kicked a ball and it hit the roof of the next door neighbours car.  She said, 'Daddy, that was naughty.  That car cost a lot of money!'  I should have reminded her of that when she drew all over my new car in fecking wax crayon!!

Well, I will say cheerio for now and get back to work, it's almost 4.15pm, so I'll need to start packing up to go home.  Stay safe and stay lucky.

The Mac's!!
