hey guys, julie welcome to the board glad you found it finally :) say hi to everyone for me too. phil you and your stories, i hit a 30, people are actually coming out, jeeze at least make it realistic :P im working hard at the moment till like 9 at night every night but i taught my first class today and it went really well so i was pretty happy. photos on the way soon as i procure me one of these spanking new japanese camera phones ;)

Hey Glenneth, how you doin? Livin' it up in Japan hey??? Were all thinking of you hope you are well. Mum sends her love (have to write that incase she looks!) Take care, Email us soon. Love Julie x

glen get some pictures on, me wanna (wonga) see where you'll be living for the next god knows how long, how does it compare to saufend? we're off to romford dogs on friday, theres quite a few of us, i'm not sure everyones feeling alright!! people actually want to go out, was surprised that stu's coming, but i think its only cos he's got to entertain his cousin (who is pretty fine!!)

We're on the Gold Coast now and have run out of money, the weather's good though!! Good luck Glen!! Will email soon XX

Sorry about that schoolboy error of mine. After 10 years I really should know how to spell Carlile. Oh well....Seems fitting I got a letter addressed to Mr Spec this morning. What goes around...........

hey guys, finally made it to the land of the rising sun, not that i can see it much at the moment its pretty cloudy but very humid here in fukuoka. saw saga (where i will be living for the next year) and met up with the gf already which was cool. started the training today. gotta learn some more japanese and fast though i cant understand wtf is happening around me atm. although one of the other trainees got stopped by some lady in the mall today who was just so shocked that his nose was so high or something (just looks like a normal western nose to me) that she felt she had to say something to him. anyway will write more when i can figure out what the hell is going on... laters

P.S. geddit right Specky.... our way of spelling Carlile aint got no S in it! Bah

Hi Glenny am thinking about booking a flight to Japan for over our birthday next march... let me know what you think of that as flights seem to be relatively cheap at the mo... £560 ?? and plus need to book it now whilst i have the cash!! nice to have young Kathryn home too. but she has rubbish taste in film... went to see poxy King Arthur last night - her choice - what a pile of poo that was. at least she paid tho!! ;)

hope you are well my sweet - email me!!! [email protected]

love you loads glenny hen - take care in Japan and don't eat poisonous blowfish ok? xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks for some more shameless plugging Phil. That's what friends are for! Also, I'm back at A&O for a while in order to refill the bank balance. Keeping busy with my two jobs. I will be here when Ms Carlisle joins so I can be of great help if any reading materials are needed!! Just ask and I'll send you personal (usually partners/associates only) copies of The Lawyer/Economist/Law Gazette/etc, to impress all your new mates!!

Hope all the travellers are keeping well, See you soon........

does this still be the place where old school chums stay in touch, rather glen, si and the rest of the world? hopes i dont write this in vain, doesnt really make any odds as i'm at work hung over, its so bloody quiet, i know its a long time ago but a belated plug for alex @ www.quickdigital.co.uk...that address for you again www.quickdigital.co.uk for all you lazy technophobes out there, for the rest of you there's dbb converter!! but i shan't jeopardise the future of the webbie any longer! hows it all going peeps? i mean honestly glen the main reason i write this is to let you know i hit a 30 at garons, mighty impressed my putter was on fire!! so theres another 1 off the course record and steve no longer stands beside me!! happy chasing!! but where are u at the mo glen? and what are you doing right now? whats in your cd player? (dont disappoint me) and si where are u? tried to get ian to e mail you but he doesnt seem to do computers, bloody useless. anyway my new job is boring as sin, i control access to information throughout the nomura group, basically resetting passwords and managing users in applications also setting up trading books but im enjoying it so much more than rbs understandably and theyre a good crowd, have bought ians car off him so im broke again but hey ho these things happen, insurance is a grand!! just cos its 2.0 litre import, could get insured fully comp on a bmw325 for 750 quid, how silly is that, nice car tho, so when u coming back then glen? lees back soon is he not, si are u october? glen when u paying a visit, myself steve stu rob and ciaran are going upto canary wharf on saturday to visit woodys new place, erm cant think of much else, rather i should be working but write back soon lads

Verity & I are now in Sydney. A chance to appreciate Australia once more & enjoy the weather. Its great to meet up with Alex & Glen again.

six days to go until Kathryn comes home!!! yipee!! can't wait to see you, and can't wait to open all the presents you have bought for me. PS - If you have any cash left over - or fancy paying by card and I'll pay ya back - you could also grab me a brick of Malborough Lights???!!! if not no worries - you prolly have too much stuff to carry anyway. was just a thought - AND NO, M&D I AM NOT GIVING UP SMOKING YET. and if K did buy me a carton of ciggies - it is in no way endorsing my smoking habit. she would just be saving me money on cigarettes i would buy anyway! Huff.........................................................
Anyway - really looking forward to seeing you again sis! gonna be sooo good - we are gonna go to Boardwalk, and out in London baby yeah!!! yay 6 more days to go, only six more days!!!! fly safely. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
