Popped round to gainsford today  and spotted that Jul’s suit and Spirou jacket had arrived. It does seem to be lacking in brass buttons of the original though…

slightly sent me a link to this. pretty funny, yet clearly rather dangerous

Haven’t actually got you a present as yet, but will no doubt have something awaiting you when you get back.

I trust that you are taking it easy today and stearing well clear of all things bucket-shaped.

Ma forgot to mention that the wind was gusting at about 45Knots (Force 8 ) when Dod got the kite up and would no doubt have gained a large amount of unwanted air if he’d held on to the bar. Good test of the kite’s safety system I say.

I believe the Bognor Rocks are several rungs above the Chichester & West Sussex Sunday Football League Division 3, where Six Villages United reside.

Another classic Sunday league football game yesterday. Pouring with rain, pitch like a swamp and everyone epically muddy. It was a big game too: the cup semi-final, and we won! Apparently the final will be played at the home of the legendary Bognor Rocks, which I imagine is almost as impressive as the new Wembley.
