Hi Uncle Neil,

What are you doing on holiday today? Are you having a nice holiday? Our bedrooms have been painted, mine (Henry) has got racing cars in and mine (Finley) is a football room and it has footballs on the bed and the walls.

How hot is it on your holiday, it is cold here. Is there a swimming pool there. We went swimming in Stokesley pool and we jumped in.

We hope you are having a nice time, we miss you coming round for tea you should come again soon. Do you miss having your tea here?

We hope you are not having lots of mucky beer and getting drunk!

Love from Henry and Finley

xx

What a fantastic trip you are having. the way you describe things makes it feel like am there too!! (I wish!!) keep the updates coming & bring an elephant back for me so i can have a go at ridin one!! x

Been out scuba diving today at Sail Rock which is between here and Ko Tao - I did a 2 dive trip round the rock. Saw some amazing fish, I'll tell you about it when I next write the blog.

On Melbourne GP, if we just do raceday that'll give us chance to do other stuff in the city - or maybe Sat and Sun > what do u think? I really don't mind.

"Play off update" - love it dad!

one nil against bottom team, i'm sure everyone will be fearing us going into the playoffs, form team and everything, good to see scumbags dropping points, come on baggies and forest!

How was fmp delsie? When I was there someone got shot (dead) by a Thai copper for drug dealing... not sure I told tash that.

did you have any "buckets"? they are like the best voddy redbul ever

Play off update, Boro 1 Peterboro 0 not a game for the purists but 3 points the most important, win ugly, just like the mags!A few changes to the team notably the absence of O'Neil. Probably the best move of the game for the Boro resulted in the goal.Franks skinned two down the left and pulled it back to Robson who side footed it in from the 6 yard box. Robson was excellent throughout and the two centre backs were rock solid,good to see Joe Bennett back at left back.Blackpool away Tuesday, Forest next Saturday. I think when you get to Oz Neil Boro play the Mags, perhaps a big celebration with Greg !!!

Hey dude, just to let you know I've got those flights to watch Lewis and Jenson tear it up around Albert park. I haven't got the race tickets yet as didn't know if you wanna go Fri sat sun or sat sun or just sun. Race starts 5pm. and didn't know if you want to go in grandstand or not. We could wait til you get to Oz or if you know now then reply on message board and I'll book. Then got you a flight on Mon night to Cairns when i go back to syd. We fly down fri am.

Thailand sounds class. See if you can fit some diving in, in Phi Phi.

Oh and enjoy the fmp tonight, its chinese ny as well so should be mental.

For those of us doing the Great North Run, Dave is going to get in touch via email about whether you got in via the general ballot or not. (I did somehow). For those who didn't, we have the 15 places through CRUK if we need them so can you let him know ASAP and we can claim them. Cheers Folks.

Hey mate, how you finding samui? Are you gonna explore island or stay in one spot? I recon Thai bloke will kill the english dude. Have you met up with London couple again? What's hotel / hostel like?

Weather still freezing,snow showers during the match, still the result cheered us all up. 2-0 at half time then Barnsley pulled one back and then the final 20 minute back to the wall stuff. All the new signings played for the first time, Wheater missed his first game with a knee injury.Other results went for us last night,the Mags were beaten 3-0 by Derby.Johnno got man of the match in his first game for Man City.Send a longer blog at the weekend with update on Peterboro match.Enjoy the heat, take care Dad.

Kickboxer... Love it!

have fun watching the "tig match" I'm sure it will be awesome. Loving the updates Neil. keep them coming.

Hey folks - I'm in Koh Samui now, arrived yesterday after another night in Bagkok. Off to watch Muai Thai Kickboxing tonight. One of the bouts is an English guy, so it should be fun watching him get beaten up by the local...or will he do a "Van Damme" and beat him and get the girl??? I'm currently crunching my knuckles in glass and listening to cheesy 80's music in preparation for the fight. hehe

Hi Neil,great to read your Hanoi blog.Hanoi sounds like Lagos.masses of people ,massive pollution ,'go-slow' traffic and lots of that random urinating !!!Have a great relax in Thailand I'm sure you will.
