<HTML>Hey guys,

I'll be flying to england tomorrow (yay!) for 1 week of holidays (yay!), and I even might be meeting Ben (yay!).
Well, all this to say I won't be around for 5 days definitely, and then depending on availability, as I'm staying with a friend who has a comp ;)

Have fun!!!</HTML>

<HTML>No,no,no. You won't be *away*. You'll be *here*. Where you are now is away. From our point of view.

Have fun.</HTML>

<HTML>How could I forget? I've already had my head done in for *only* seeing you then... *roll eyes*

Dave, unfortunately not this time, it's just London and Bristol. Don't worry though, I plan to see Eddie one day :)</HTML>

<HTML>I saw young Eddie yesterday and I have to say the lad's fearless.
Certainly he wasn't scared of me ! (Or indeed throwing himself off
chairs, tables towards all manner of sharp objects.)

He could do with a haircut though !!</HTML>

<HTML>Indeed, the boy does have a goodly head of hair. Could do with a trim, I keep telling his mother that mullets are no longer the fashion statement they once were. They're certainly A fashion statement, but not the one he'd want.

Still, should make for some entertaining photos to embarass him with when he gets a girlfriend....</HTML>
