IC5: Will Eddie do the Numa Numa song for us?

Only you would pick up on that! Quintessential English humor.

 

And the hits just keep on coming!

 

I have to find a way to stay in London until February 13th. I have to get to St Mary's for Southampton v Pompey. CRAP!

 

I am getting together with Limey's parents without him. I should get lots of good info to razz him on with my English Pop.

 

The Eddie v srd... Rivalry is about to be renewed. If he dares...

 

Eddie - A lot
SRD - A little

He chickened out this time.

 

I don't even know who you are.

 

How great was it that all year you waited for the ill-advised Favre pass to be intercepted and cost the Vikings a game and it never came...until the NFC Championship game. Most overrated QB ever.

Quick, how many Super Bowls has Favre won? Just one...the same as Eli Manning, Kurt Warner, Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Mark Rypien, Jeff Hostetler, Jim McMahon and Phil Simms, just one.

Seriously has there ever been a more overrated QB? If the media didn't love Brett he would not have the same reputation.

 

Was great. Especially when he was getting pummelled in there despite getting extra protection from the refs.

At one point I even wanted the Vikes to win on the proviso that Favre was so banged up he couldn't play and they'd have to go to war with Jackson/Rosenfels - that would have been high comedy.

As it was watching Favre kill another game with bad decisions was hella good. This time I really do hope his last pass attempt was a pick.

Should be a great Superbowl!

BTW, you still eating dinner? It's been 4 hours but doesn't mean you;re not still eating

 

Sorry. Got home from dinner and decided to plan out the trip. Take a look, too ambitious?


Wednesday - Lunch, Chelsea Tour, Pints and Pints then Fulham v Pompey

Thursday - Westminster Abbey, Pall Mall, Trafalgar Square, National Gallery, Big Ben and Parliament, Cabinet War Rooms

Friday - Windsor and Dinner with Tingey's

Saturday - Oxford / Dave's Parents?

Sunday - Church at Westminster RC Church, Chelsea pre-game, Chelsea match, Dinner, Super Bash at O2

Monday - Saint Paul's Cathedral, Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Fashion and Textile Museum, Dennis Sever House in evening

Tuesday - Buckingham Palace, Imperial War Museum, Fashion Enter, Fulham v Burnley

Wednesday - British Museum, Victoria and Albert, Fullers Tour, London College of Fashion, West Ham v Birmingham

I have to email your Mom tomorrow. I think Friday or Saturday might work better than Monday. Oxford is still a TBD. If our plans now are too ambitious then Saturday will be a London day (and I'll work on talking Catherine into either the Spurs match or Millwall match). The Crystal Palace v Wolves FA Cup reply in on Tuesday instead of Wednesday now or else I would have made that match too.

If we take a train to Windsor, can we then get a train to Newbury where your parents can meet us? I don't want to have them drive to Windsor. Also can you believe they've NEVER met Catherine? Catherine and I were talking about it at dinner. All those years we lived together and they never met her.

 

Windsor to Newbury is a crappy service - you basically have to change twice I think with all legs being infrequent. Check out http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/times_fares/

Sounds like a pretty full itinerary - should be good!

BTW, the current front runner for the wedding next year has a little bar in the lower level (it's a renovated mansion/house near my house). We're already having a Chelsea theme (blue is the main colour with yellow/white trim, the tables will be named the Dixon table, Zola table etc) and I just talked Becky into pint glass favours and putting up flags and scarves in the bar. I want to put some Chelsea DVD's on a loop in there too for background. I can see myself spending most of the wedding in there

 

Do I have too many things planned for any days you think?

I'll have a word with your Mom. If we go out to Windsor on Saturday, how far is it to Stonehenge? Maybe we'll just stay at your parents Friday night and Saturday go to Stonehenge and then train home. I don't want to put your parents out at all. If I remember right, Stonehenge is a pain in the ass to get to right?

Is Oxford worth going to?

Your wedding going to rule. Can we get blue tuxes too?

 

The ties and waistcoats will most likely be blue yes

Standard black tuxes though. I'll give you a shout tomorrow.

 

Why do they make it so easy for me? Have to love the Welsh

Only an Eagles fan can appreciate this:

Duly appreciated

I love that you have the lowest interception per pass attempt ratio of all time

I love it that John Madden said that it was because you throw the ball so badly not even the defense can catch it.
