Vegas,Benidorm,and Crocodile Mick.

Here we go again,I just started writing a blog, and was into it when the computer decided to update stuff and wiped it,as I was saying before the interruption,Le blade has gone to Benidorm on a cultural exchange for 2 weeks,it is probably marginally better than 2 weeks in Armley prison,on his return he shall be known as Ian Vegas ,for our US readers benefit,we have an "alleged" comedy programme on tv, set in this slightly down market Spanish holiday resort ,one of the main actors is named Johnny Vegas,who is in real life a drunken slob,not that I personally hold that against him.
Crocodile Mick rang us yesterday from OZ,to complain about me sending him the wrong phone number for our place,this being the reason he has not phoned,in reality he needed to exclude the 0 from the area code ,which his dear wife informed him would facilitate the call,he then told me to get a pencil( I think maybe they are not yet into pens and joined up writing in the outback) and write the proper number to ring from OZ,and was taken aback when I said, "I already know this number as it's my own"all this because he will not use skype as he does'nt like computers,after some little banter and whole sentences of expletives of an Australian nature,I told him to turn the skype programme on and Sheila would talk to Debbie his long suffering wife ,which is what happened ,our itinery is now in place,the Millson lads are excluded from the decision making process as being unfit for purpose,and he is back to boosting the profits of VB brewery.
I think the former prisoners of her majesty(pohms) are a little laid back and can only think it is the sun which acts as a soporific,he says its geriatric dementia and Victoria Bitter combined.
It has been decided that we shall drive leisurely through the outback up to their place taking about 3 days,we insisted no camping will be considered on this journey, due to the possibility of life threatening reptiles and spiders displaying an unwelcome interest,I do know he has a "ute" vehicle but hopefully he also has a normal car as I don't think the two girls will appreciate bouncing about in the back among the crates of beer and two bottles of sherry,and him saying"She's a good sort your Sheila"and me replying "Thee wait till we stop!!!!!!! tha waint think so then"

Hilarious him wanting to give you your number. I wish I could spend a few days at his place with you.
