The Trip

This was given to me by the author himself. I think he will be famous one day, as an author not football player.......oh dear...

Subject: What I did on my summer holiday

By Theo Walcott Esq. aged 8 1/2


I went to a place called Germany with my Uncle Sven and some other grown up's. It is a country in Europe where a bad man called Adolf used to live with his nazties, he does not live there anymore, Uncle Owen does live there, and the grown up's say I cant talk about the bad man as it will make Uncle Owen cry if I do. In Germany, there are lots of castles and some mountains. We are staying in a place called Baden Baden that's a silly name, Uncle Frank has the same name as his dad, that's silly too, his mum must get their underpants mixed up all the time.

On the aeroplane Uncle Sol sat next to me, he got me some toffee and wants to be my friend, he works at the place where I do my YTS, so does Uncle Freddy but he and Uncle Sol are not best friends anymore.

Uncle Owen met us at the airport, he talks foreign, Uncle Wayne, Uncle Steven and Uncle David also talk funny, my mum says Uncle David talks like Orville, he is a duck, Uncle Sol say's Uncle David wears dresses and knickers, and asked me if I had ever worn them. Uncle Sol got me some pop.

In Germany the grown ups are going to play football, my granddad says we beat them in the olden days before my mum was born. That is a long time ago.

While the grown ups went to play football so I went shopping with Auntie Vicky and some other girls she bought me a big ice cream and got herself a little one but she said she was full before she had eaten any and threw it away. She bought lots of shoes and handbags and let me play with Brooklyn. All the other grown ups have a girlfriend except Uncle Sol so he plays with me while they go out. Uncle Sven says I must keep Uncle Sol happy, thats why I got taken on holiday. The grown ups went to play Football against somebody called Sweden, Uncle Sol was crying as Uncle Freddy played for them and would not talk to him. Uncle Sol bought me lots of toffee today and some crisps. Uncle Sven is from Sweden and I heard him on the phone to their boss last night. Uncle Michael hurt his knee and had to go home to his mum for a plaster. Uncle Peter is a giant, a proper giant like the one you see in books; he is rubbish at football though.

Uncle Wayne had a sore toe at the start of out holiday but it got better so they let him play football. Uncle Sol got me a present but I do not like it. He says all Germans wear leather underpants and I should while we are here, they are too tight for me.

All the grown ups started to call Uncle Wayne a potato head who stood on somebody’s spuds. He got shouted at by the referee. They are all saying that we have to go home now. Uncle Sol was crying again and I had to sit on his knee to make him stop. He had his mobile phone in his pocket, I think.
The End.
What do you think?

Dead man's chest

Have you watched it yet? Pirates of the carib 2? It's fantastic, that is if you have watched the first one. Watched it yesterday, gold class, with Steve and goldfish. Speaking of goldfish, her mom's supposed to be catching a flight from scotland ( why I have no idea since her mom's staying in newcastle ) to dubai to follow her on her leg to seychelles. Here comes the fun part, she sent her mom to the wrong bloody airport!!! Oh dear, I really don't wanna be her mom yesterday.
Dave's sick today. For all the 2 1/2 years I've been with him, it's the first time. Got the summer flu. Nat came and gone. She worked for a while, she just left. I don't know whether she'll be back later in the day, but I tink she's finally moved out. When I came last Wednesday nite, she was in tears at the final tipping point. She loves the job, but she feels like a huge dark cloud whenever I'm around, because I blank her. Yes, I don't talk to her. I don't know what to say? She asks me something I answer. That's good enough I think. Obviously, to her, it's not. Well, because of that, we had another barney!!! I hate it!!! Having domestics!!! It was the final straw...for Dave... and for Dave, I will talk to Missy. And so I did...today. She said, morning, I waved. I could only do that as I was in a hurry for a tom-tit!!! Then she asked how was my weekend? I said ok...kinda boring at cliff's but had fun yesterday. I hope that was awrite for her. It is a bloody start, I reckon. We shall see, won't we?
I tink Mattias has moved out. That was what it looked like when I left that day. Aida has not called or texted me to say that anything. I did offer. She declined. So fine. Can't force anyone to do anything they don't want to do can you?
The world is getting bad now....first mumbai lapse 2 days beirut......you didn't know? Keep up with the news people.....

US Visa

I receive a call yesterday from the company saying that I do not start my application for the US Visa, ( which by the way is a very long expensive process and I have been delaying it for the last 5 months ) I will be suspended! Ha! I wish I can say, do it! Cause I am not looking forward to a 14 hour flight from here with only a 24 hour rest in New York. What a threat! What the company should have done, which I am sure that my colleagues will definitely agree, is to arrange a specific day of the week, so that if anyone is free can go to the silly interview, and also to arrange transport from one of the accomodations. This will facilitate all unnecessary payments from us only having to go the airport office to collect the re-imbursement! Who in the right mind will pay about S$40 return trip just to collect S$185??!! Whatever....still need to be done huh? We will officially start this long, dreadful trip on October 26!!! I hope the company won't be a bastard and cancel all the crew's leave with a stupid reason that "we need maximum number of crew" knowing the company, anything is possible!!!

Well, my so-call fued with Nat is actually not over, according to Nat. She made a decision not to be in the house when I am there. So, she now have made arrangements to live with a mate for a while, but her big major stuff will still be in the house. Questions: why didn't she think of this 4 months ago??? why does she think that everytime me and Dave have a little tiff it is because of her? So, this she moving out thing...is this a victory for me? No, I actually feel bad about it. I know for a fact that they will be closer because of the 2-man team. I WILL be left out. Now, is she prepared to go through this again when she gets a boyfriend? People, I will let you know.

Mom wants me to come home for a while to sign some papers. What I have no idea? I am a little pissed off as I did ask her the last time, will there be anymore of this? She said no, then. Now.... aaarrrggghhh!!! Last I heard as well that my bro's in laws will be there before Eid to celebrated Eid in JB. Question: who the hell invited them? I am so not looking forward to the family war which happened the last time families went on holiday together. Don't people learn their lesson? Don't children know that your parents do not necessary get along with your in- laws? If they do, perfect. If they don't, bloody hell put your feet down to say no!!!

I sincerely apologise people for not been around for a long time. My head had been a mess. I thought it would be best not to blog. Unnecessary things will be written when that happens.
Well, me go upstairs now for tea and lunch with darling Shweta.

Catch ya later

PS:Cold amostphere in abu dhabi, which I am not looking forward to. what is it? I will tell you when the volcano erupts. Which i hope it won't.......
