Afternoon boys, Well it's been a while. I celebrated my 86th birthday the other day. Had a great time in town ending up at UT. Can't believe it's changed so much in there since it used to be a choir house. All is well Dallington-wise, not much has changed except every single player/management member now has 7 kids. All are being groomed for Dallington and have been sent to a strict training camp deep in the Mongolian mountains to learn the ways of the Lion. Feedback I'm getting is that all is going well however there are a couple of deviants up there; Purdy's kids won't touch the ball, they just keep stepping over it. Ceely's kids have all had behavioural problems and keep back chatting. Sam's kids are impeccably behaved and too "nice" and Tom's kids keep running through brick walls. We're doing ok in the league, won 1, drawn 1 and lost 2 now although the losses were simply due to mistakes and only by the odd goal. The win was against top of the league in our last game. This Sunday we're playing St Margarets so this will be the big test really. Will let you know how things go. Anyway boys, sounds like you're still living things up, not sure whether you'll be venturing back to Northampton on your return to Blighty but will have to sort something out at some point if not. Take it easy chaps.

HOLA FROM CHILE!!!

First a huge congrats to the Dyer family!! A little boy - Archie isnt it?? Great work. A new lil Dallington Lion in the making!! He probably already has more hair then me!!

Im now off on my own lil adventure in Chile across to Argentina to see my family where I'll be 'waiting' for the boys. It'll be hard not waking up next to one of them and I wont have any of them to tuck me at night and kiss me on the forhead as I drift to sleep. But I'm a big boy now.

Ive been trying to load pics o this site buts it takes ages so I have been lazy - dont worry we'll get some more on her asap!!

Anyway peace out friends and family - keep the messages coming. It keeps us going in times of dispair!
