July 10, 2006 at 08:56,   Pete Roberts said: What I did on my summer holidays. By Theo Walcott Esq aged 17 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 him 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 had ever worn them. Uncle Sol got me some pop. In Germany the grown ups are going to play football, my grandad says we beat them in the olden days before my mum was born. That is a long time ago. While the grown up's 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. She say's she used to be in a pop band and sang me one of her songs, I think she was telling fibs. I told Uncle Sol about my day out with Vicky and he sulked, then he bought me an even bigger ice cream with lots of hundred's & thousands on it. All the other grown up's have a girlfriend except Uncle Sol so he plays with me while they go out. Uncle Sven says I must keep Uncle Sol happy, that's why I got taken on holiday. The grown up's 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 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 up's started to call Uncle Wayne a potato head who stood on somebodys 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. He wants to show me something in his room, I am going. Bye bye for now

June 22, 2006 at 11:33,   Fiona Rolfe said: A man takes his seat at the World Cup Final. He looks to his left and notices that the there is a spare seat in between himself and the next guy. "Who would ever miss the World Cup final?", asks the man. "That was my wife's seat. We have been to the last five World Cup finals together, but sadly she passed away", explains the guy. "That's terrible, but couldn't you get another member of the family, friend or someone else to come with you?", asks the man. "No.....They are all at the funeral."
June 21, 2006 at 02:49,   Philip Worthington said: Pete, I see you are slipping well behind your boy & myself - pull your socks up mate!
June 20, 2006 at 03:24,   Alan McMurtry said: Pete, the cheques in the post. AV, quit while you're ahead...or behind as the case may be...
June 20, 2006 at 00:24,   Andrew Vasko said: SEP - I put 49 initally and then decided to change to 50 so I changed 9 to 0 and competely forgotten about 4. So 40 actually means 50 but you don't know about it. Just use your imagination :)
June 19, 2006 at 23:13,   Pete Roberts said: Hi Guys & Gals...still waiting payment for sweep entry from a number of you. Please could you all make sure you have paid me by the end of this week..Cheers
June 19, 2006 at 21:22,   sharen paine said: AV - Since when did 40 + 5 = 55 - perhaps this provides a clue to the boy/girl competence mystery.
June 18, 2006 at 21:51,   Lis Latzelsperger said: isn't it obvious AV?
June 16, 2006 at 09:53,   Andrew Vasko said: Intersting statistics: RHE League top 10: 5 girls & 5 boys - 50/50 split RHE League total 55: 5 girls and 40 boys - 10/90 split Soccer competency level: girls - 100% in top 10 boys - 10% in top 10 Any ideas why?
June 16, 2006 at 08:33,   Pete Roberts said: Why We Split Up ...She told me we couldn't afford beer anymore and I'd have to quit. ...Then I caught her spending $65.00 on make-up. ...And I asked how come I had to give up stuff and not her. ...She said she needed the make-up to look pretty for me. ...I told her that was what the beer was for. I don't think she's coming back..........:)
June 16, 2006 at 00:18,   Fiona Rolfe said: What do you call a celibate Irishman?..... Feckless....
June 16, 2006 at 00:07,   Alan McMurtry said: Sweden Blames Celibacy vow for lack of goals. Swedish players wives made them all take a vow of celibacy prior to going to the world cup. Inspired by the program Footballers wives, the girls all got together and made the players promise not to score when they were over in Germany. Of course these budding Einstein’s interpreted this as they were not supposed to score goals either!! until Freddie Lungberg forgot and broke the deadlock after 178 mins of football. Although the team all surrounded him after he scored and it looked like a celebration, they were actually offering their condolences as they think he is about to be divorced. Striker Ibrahimovic who went off at half time clutching his genitals said that the vow of celibacy was too much for him, “it felt like my dick was going to fall off, I had a quick tug at halftime, but it was just not enough” It was also rumored that Tobias Linderoth played for Sweden today, but that is unconfirmed Coach Laars Laagerback was not available for comment but was spotted celebrating in a German beerhall knocking lots of Lager back.

June 14, 2006 at 23:14,   Pete Roberts said: A German family head out one Saturday to do some shopping. While in the sports shop the son picks up an England football shirt and says to his sister, "I've decided to be an England supporter and I would like this for my birthday." His big sister is outraged by this and promptly whacks him round the head and says, "Go talk to your mother." So off goes the little lad with the white and red football shirt in hand and finds his mother. "Mum?" "Yes son?" "I've decided I'm going to be an England supporter and I would like this shirt for my birthday". The mother is outraged at this, promptly whacks him around the head twice and says, "Go talk to your father." Off he goes with the football shirt in hand and finds his father. "Dad?" "Yes son?" "I've decided I'm going to be an England supporter and I would like this shirt for my birthday." The father is outraged and promptly whacks his son around the head 4 times and says: "No son of mine is ever going to be seen in THAT!" About half an hour later they're all back in the car and heading towards home. The father turns to his son and says; "Son, I hope you've learned something today?" The son says, "Yes dad I have." "Good son, what is it?" The son replies, "I've only been an England supporter for an hour and already I hate you Germans"
June 14, 2006 at 22:38,   Pete Roberts said: It is just before the England v Brazil match. Ronaldinho goes into The Brazilian changing room to find all his team mates looking a bit glum. "What's up?" he asks. "Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it's important but it's only England. They're shit and we can't be bothered." Ronaldinho looks at them and says, "Well, I reckon I can beat them by myself, you lads go down the pub." So Ronaldinho goes out to play England by himself and the rest of the Brazilian team go off for a few jars. After a few pints they wonder how the game is going, so they get the landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads "Brazil 1 - England 0 (Ronaldinho 10 minutes)". He is beating England all by himself! Anyway, a few pints later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers, "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on." They put the teletext on. "Result from the Stadium 'Brazil 1 (Ronaldinho 10 minutes) - England 1 (Owen 89 minutes)." They can't believe it; he has single-handedly got a draw against England!! They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate Ronaldinho. They find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sitting with his head in his hands. He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down." "Don't be daft, you got a draw against England, all by yourself. And they only scored at the very, very end!" "No, no, I have, I've let you down...I got sent off after 12 minutes."
June 12, 2006 at 03:43,   Fiona Rolfe said: Nice to see that you've now got some points on the board now, Bob.

June 8, 2006 at 23:56,   Pete Roberts said: Wayne Rooney has been told he can play in the World Cup if he gets a Cortisone Injection. David Beckham responded, "If that fat tosser is having a new car, then so am I!"
June 8, 2006 at 21:59,   Pete Roberts said: Course you have to go with ENGLAND now that Rooney's fit !
