Trust all is well and you're *reluctantly* sampling Chile's finest vino. (Dylan Moran: There's only 2 types of wine: "Oh, that's okay, we'll have x bottles of that for the table, please"; or "WTF is that?")
No sympathy for you Euro flops. Whinge whinge whinge. Henry: world class, but a world class choker to boot.
Still, FYI, as I was down in Taffyland for the FA Cup stroll, the Hammers have a new ditty for the yids, to wit: "Lasagne, wo-wo-wo-wooah, Lasagne wo-wo-wo-woah; we laughed ourselves to bits, when Tottenham got the s***s, Lasagne wo-wo-wo-woah ..."
And I trust yer familiar with the old classic, "4 men went to Bolton, on a helicopter ..."
And, and just to nose rub, am off to pogo horizontally to the Strokes, Raconteurs, Super Furry's and Dirty Pretty's in June in Hyde Pk. So enjoy yer endless "Guantanamera" squalour!
PS Bet you've got balls like Scotch eggs by now! Am I right, or am I right? Well, there's only one way to prove me wrong ... and that's to fess up. (Don't worry: Andrew's still pretending to be *straight* [fooling nobody I mean how many times does a normal boy check his pecs in a mirror in one day?] and Mark is still loitering outside Nurses' dorms of an evening. And as for yer nieces ... well, for the right kinda malt I will open up the vault the vault of knowledge! Facts Jacked! Horses' mouths!)
Oops. Cue Losing My Religion: I've said too much, I haven't said enough ...

Bonjour from Corsica. It has taken us about 20 mins using our combined brains to grt this interweb thing working. New technology?
Weather here is v good 24 ish at least every day. Weve reqd your write up on Chile and seen the pics. Bad luck for Arsenal, its difficult enough v Barca with 11 men, but with 10 it needed a miracle. Maybe another year? Dad
It didn't take 20 mins to find this site tho' it was my AOL site we were looking for! The keyboard is different here - what's it like in SA? I have found the solution to carrying so mqny books in my luggqge - read French novels as they take so much longer! Some brilliant scenery here - sea, mountains & countryside. It was well worth the 33 years' wait! Mum

Hi Rich,
The captions on your pics are very good, just about the right amount of funny ones. I particularly like the Bizarre Chapel, it looks about the same size as the shed in our garden. I'll send your uncle Jonny an email asking him to give you his critique on the latest pics. Enjoy Chile, cheers for now.
Dad.
