Yo all FF member, Ziplock is in the house.
As many of you probably know, I am heading off overseas to (mostly) Europe until early november (a little more than 3 months).
Subsequently, I won't be around for the next few months/the remainder of the season, as well as having limited internet access, so I would like to take this opportunity to say thanks ya'll for your community + DT support this year, it's helped quite a lot, have fun and try not to fall apart without me.
And monty, if you're reading this, when I return I intend to restart my campaign to get Ziplock back :P
oh, and a huge shout out to LaHug, who's being a real champion and running my team (with instructions of course), while I am unable to.
Cheers ya'll!
Ziplock.
(or Zarts :P )
Whose Ziplock? ;) :P
Enjoy your trip overseas! Have fun and stay safe! :D

I went to Europe in 2008 for 2 months and went to:
England, France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Croatia, Greece and Spain (plus a few hours in Slovakia) :D

Have fun Zip, enjoy it all.
Os I'm in Europe next month as well. Place to be!
Clearly we're both confident that the Pies will make it to the Granny.
We should all wear FF hats.
Have a great time Zippy.
Having recently returned from a quick trip overseas, it is fantastic and it is great you are taking the time to see things properly and leaving the itinerary flexible as you really don't get a sense of how everything is until you are over there.
Make sure to visit Amsterdam! It's more "liberal" laws are not going to apply to tourists from the end of this year so enjoy it while you have the chance ;)
lol hawk, yeah, I've been told by a few people to visit amsterdam :P
lol ossie, yeah :P

3 months? He must be rich.
or is going real cheap on the holiday, hostels are pretty cheap over their. Myself personally i need to save u alot to even go for a month as im not into shared dorms/bathrooms.
Will be abit lonely on the DT board for a while
The currency at the moment makes much, much cheaper now also.
I.e. a few years ago it literally would have cost more than TWICE as much
Wow three months is a fair while. I went for 2 months, and 1 of those was spent with family.
Staying at hostels + the strength of the aussie dollar at the moment, it will actually cost very little to live there once over there. The big cost is the initial flight and that doesn't change based on how long you spend over there.
The food in the supermarkets in Europe is of very high quality and cheap compared to our supermarkets. Alcohol is also considerably cheaper, both in stores and bars.
Yep alcohol is very cheep there. Got a bottle of vodka for only 3 euro! Although it was the most disgusing vodka I have ever had!!
Flights are reasonable ATM to Asia etc, as just seen some to Singapore dirt cheap. USA is dear due to the $ & every every one seems to be going there.
Me just sitting back biding my time as have done 2 trips this year. HK & KL
I'm going to Nepal at the end of the year to trek through the Himalayas :)
well, I got sponsored by my parish to go over to this thing called world youth day, so, that's my flights + august accommodation done, then I'm heading to italy for a month where my family over there insists that they wont let me pay for anything other than trinkets/ memorabilia, and then I have about 5 or 6 grand to last me the last month.
Anyway, I'm actually in the middle east atm (in Jordan), haven't slept in 48 hours, and have to be up at 5am in the morning- had an 8 hour stop over at dubai :'(
anyway, I'll keep you all posted, should shape up to be sweet :D
and crows, my dad did that when he was a youngun' :P
I've never been overseas. :P
While he's gone should I trade in Relton Roberts and Fev?
YES YES YES! RELTON ROBERTS IS A BEAST IN DT!!!
I don't think you can get Relton in! Wasn't he 2010?
Defs lh. How nice of you.

Well that didn't work out that well for me last season!
I didn't think you could trade either in. Anyways, I traded out Swan from Ben Sinclair this week because I thought Sinclair looked better and I have a gut feeling Swan will be withdrawn late and Sinclair will be in.

And of course, I didn't actually do that. But I would still love to see Benny play!
damn straight you didn't Huggie :P
Yeah, went to the sea of galilee today, as well as this place where moses died. Was pretty cool. Only had 6 hrs sleep in 3 days though which kind of suck :'(
having fun though :D
