On me Way!

Well folks I'm finally on my way to Brazil, I've tried to watch the US v Germany game but it's a no go. So I'm listening instead and no I do not have a cold corona in hand, it's a wee bit early maybe in 10 minutes 😬

I've brought enough clothing to clothe all of Liberia and that's still on the table. There will be a few Brazilian geezers walking round Fortaleza with some Tommy Hilfiger clobber and Nike's come mid-July. 

Anyway here's a pic of me in the air. 

Albert Tatlock.

It would be unfair to give the other lads nicknames and not reveal the nickname that big nose aka Keith likes to call me. It's Albert, after Albert Tatlock a character from a long running drama that airs in the UK called Coronation Street. Albert Tatlock was a cantankerous old geezer with a fairly decent  size  honker, this is the comparison that Keith is trying to draw peoples attention to.

I will agree with the personality comparison, that's fair enough but the honker part although my son seems to get great amusement out of the fact that I call Keith " big nose".

Below is a picture of old Albert and below that is a pic of yours truly, now who's going to say that I've got a big hooter?

Oops I left this lot out.

The Family in Ptown.

The Family behind the trip 🇺🇸

My dear lovely family will be at home working, playing lacrosse and running around like lunatics while I get to swan off to the World Cup in Brazil. My family Lori, Sydney, Pearse, Duncan and wee Riley Smiley Aldwell ( full name) will be holding the fort down at Hogwarts Cir.  The missus has been so supportive in my trek to fulfill a life long dream, I will miss them all very much. 

With less than 3 weeks to go I'm scrambling to get everything ready, I'm a right nervous nelly with all this upheaval and usually the missus is with me to make sure everything goes smoothly. She has often marveled at the fact that I actually make it home everyday. 

This is coming off sounding like I'm a right gobshite, I can hear the peanut gallery chime in as I type. 

Below is a picture of us lot at lunch in ptown

and also a pic of the lads Duncan & Riley.
