    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    exactly, before whenever my son saw a plane it's always high and small but today when he saw the first big plane just above us he said 'wooow', and then each plane he saw he waved and said 'eh' (means hello or goodbye)

    Hounslow not very Kano most likely why you all go ripped off. Everyone seemed to pay ten pounds.

    May have to open up the somebody towers carpark and bus you lot in for free

    Of course it was a brillant day you were in west landan just up the road from where your Team used to train and in the opposite direction about the similar distance where the reserves used to play.

    Did you get a picture of a yellow man eating doughnuts
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    Fiesta

    Dom & Jet,

    Nice to meet you, if only for a few minutes.


    ...as per the Fiesta,
    good turn-out of people & all seemed to be having a good time.
    The food stalls seemed reasonable value, and many were "mobbed".

    .. the music ? .... overall, "pony".
    What was that, I'm here all the way from L.A .... that's Los Angeles" nonsence ?
    Thankfully the sound quality was pretty abysmal, so didn't have to
    endure too much of it.

    Would have been better with "real" singing, and "sing-along" DJ tunes.

    indeed having all the young phill bands on I guess is good to give them a head start but maybe they could do on a friday night like they had a few years back where a big boyband (forgotten the name came over and played) performed. So all da Phill chave kids can get down, and then maybe have a mass videoke so we can laugh at them all and hear the odd gem

    It was funny how the performers kept banging on where they are from (ie USA, new york, la) and how different the UK is then thinking hang on better say hands up if your pinoy


    With the foods stalls We noticed a bit of a price war going on in the afternoon as in the morning some were quite expensive compared to others.

    Sadly people didn't seem to bother checking and went back to the ones which were cheapest in the morning. Hence the big queues on some stalls Luckily some of our group went to one stall which was quite expensive earlier and called over the rest

He then started shouting free pens and throwing them to passer bys, then i hear him say no just one pen not two as he dissapeared behind a mass of phills
