    No official word as yet, but just on the off chance my youngest has booked a week in Portugal.
    Knowing his luck it'll be the wrong week :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    I booked a holiday to Tobago when Keane was our manager based on the number of their players we had, we went to Amsterdam, I did catch 2 pelicans while fishing though

    Sorry, I was a bit arsey, the bait fish were jumping out of the water, so you know the bigger fish are there, thats where you cast. But the pelicans know this also and come in and try to pick up the bait fish. Unfortunately my lure must have looked tasty, both birds released unharmed, well apart from a wound from a hook

    As I was walking back a local lady asked if I had caught anything, I told her just 2 pelicans, she said you should have brought them back, we could have had them on the barbecue :emoticon-0102-bigsm
