Mark Brightman Very nice pictures Ross. Can you confirm that viewers of this Web site are receiving full disclosure. I have heard that some people who go off travelling keep two sets of pictures, those you show your granny and those you show your mates. Just checking. Stoke City are still above Spurs in the table by the way before you get too carried away with the Rednapp Revolution...it's going to be a long season. Glad you're still enjoying yourself. Take care. Mark

Karl Ross! Just a quick message - had meant to do this sooner! Presume you've heard about the Rednapp Revolution by now? Things are looking quite a bit better now. I was at the UFEA Cup group game Thursday night and am off up to Manc 2moz for the City game... what's the betting that Defoe might be wearing a Spurs shirt come January??? Lol Anyway, I hope you're enjoying the yourself to the max - I will find some time to look through your pics this week to see what you've been up to. Take it easy, Karl

Jess Lock up your clothes ladies the boy is on the loose... First dresses but who knows what next?! x

Chris Brightman Hay, sorry its been such a long time since my last post, my brain has been on the brink of collaspe, as you never warned me that I would have to do bloody maths equations before sending you a message. I have finally logged on today with a slightly easier one, 1 + 2 = 3 So here I am, hope you are still having a brill time, you have missed one hell of a week in the uk, Tottenham have picked up 7 points in as many days, Lewis has one the world championship and Bond has been released. Just brought a calculator, so I can do these maths equations and post more messages to you Missing you buddy - take care

Ross Hi all, apologies for the slow updates, the internet connections here in Guatemala are pretty rubbish! Unfortunately i have been unable to avoid the mess that is Tottenham as it has even made the news over here! But thanks for the depressing updates! Mark - Stoke game sounds great, ive put the old man on the case! More pictures and new report to follow...

Lucky Day Good news - Spurs have now got more points than a triangle having thrashed Bolton. OK slight exaggeration but no more so than you getting a tanned torso . Glad to hear you're on track with beer.

Mark Brightman Ross, I've just seen the update from Mike about the Spurs result last weekend. What Mike doesn't know is that this so call second from bottom team is Stoke City Football club who I have supported for all of 6 months. Chris, Dave & I went to watch the match at Stoke last weekend. We sat in the Stoke seats and had a ball - Ha Ha. THFC nearly killed our goalkeeper what a rough lot they are. JOKE: What is the difference between a triangle and Tottenham Hotspur. Answer: A triangle has more points !!. Playing Bolton today at home so we'll see. Would you and your Dad like to watch them play Stoke at Whitehart Lane on 27th January with Chris and Dave ? We're planning to go. Glad you're ok. Take care and have fun (Safely) Mark & Pam

victoria Ross, Hope your well. Al and I have finally got the internet so have managed to access your blog although I wish I hadn't i'm so jealous, it looks and sounds such an incredible experience. Glad your enjoying yourself. Mum and Dad send their love to you. I am slightly concerned however about the beard. is it to disguise yourself as your so humiliated about Spurs? (sorry Uncle Bob - but more jokes were required) lots of love Victoria & Alan xx

Pauline Hi Ross - what brilliant pictures.... I love the brightly coloured buildings/wools/foods and you really must try the hot chilli grasshoppers - if only for us to take the proverbial! Looks and sounds like you are having a fabulous time. Here's a saying that might come in useful - "No hay de queso, no mas de papas" tells someone you're "broke," - literal translation is "I don't have cheese - or potatoes either." !Take care - looking forward to your next instalment. Pauline (and the other Taylors)x

Jamie Lawrence Mr Farley!! Looks like you're having a great time so far. I have to reiterate Mike's comment......Tottenham are officially RUBBISH - I'll keep you updated on all of their bad results All the best old boy!! Jamie

Jess Finally managed to get on and see the photos... loving them! I had visions of it being just beaches and boringness but it looks fabulous! Especially loved the one with you and the view... good to see the tan is going well haha. Any other feedback on the beard would be greatly appreciated from others. How are you holding out? Tempted to shave yet? I guess karma was the reason Hamilton won yesterday, as i rubbed it in so much last weekend about Alonso! Bring on Brazil... x

Jess Bronzed babes hey?! Shall i hand my notice in?! x

mike Just in case you forgot the 'true' reason that you left the UK ie. you cant take any more ribbing over Spurs footie results. Well, I'm sorry to say youv'e gotta stay put there buddy.....the b*****s went and lost again 2-1 to the second from bottom team no less!! You sure sound as if you are already having a ball, wish we were there with you. Stay safe. Mike & Pam xx

Dad NO! ...... you can't do this to me...... Yoga........relaxed. What am I to do, you really cannot afford to become anymore horizontal! I have your mother, sister, grandmother and retirement to think of. I need you alert, motovated and working to look after me. No more relaxation please? Enjoy your time away. Dad x
