Gosh - who remembers Luther Blisset's hattrick ? Even Ricky Hill played in that game - if ever there was an act of contempt towards the oppostion. Sorry all this talk of footy has somewhat aroused me into writing my first post in yonks. I've been sooo busy. DAVID WILKIE Firstly the King of Thailand (who's birthday it is on the 5th so I'll see you all in Athena tommorow) enlisted my Duncan Goodhew-like talents to teach Madame Ooon how to swim. She prefers elephants to water, but by the end of my stay I had her playing water-polo like a rock-hard bastard. BEEF AND MUSTARD Sorry to all of you who didn't get a postcard from us, but I can whole-heartedly suggest you cut down on your biscuit nibbling and save your pennies for a trip to Krabi in the South of Thailand. There can only be a few places left in the world so beautiful - Mountains, rainforest, paradisial (?) beaches and coral reef and because it is relatively untouched by commercial tourism, sunbeds ten a man. That kind of takes the fun out of being an Englishman on holiday - no ritual towel dunking at dawn !!! SPOTTY BACK Talking of elephants and football, we went to a show of football-playing elephants. They all had cute shirt-like things with famous footballers names on. And true to form Shearer was a complete tool. Davor Suker had a shot on him that would break your average goalkeepers legs, and Oliver Bierhoff laid the biggest turd you've ever seen. KEVIN CAMPBELLS JOCKSTRAP Talking of elephants and football, tomorrow is the game that should see the biggest gathering of great football minds, and the biggest gathering of shit on one small paddy field ever....Exeter vs Torquay. So if Mark C wants a fight and a ticket for the Everton cup game he better turn up at The Park tomorrow. Right that's enough from me - I'm just glad I only have poor-mans telly and missed that dreadful Tube revival thingy on Sky. It means there is actually something to look forward to over the xmas period. Thanks for listening. Adrian. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Thousands of Stores.
