    About 90% of my posts are done via full size PC keyboard, so any mistakes are pretty much down to me. Occasionally, I'll use my Galaxy S2, and the predictive text on that is astonishingly good. There are words I'm damned sure I've not come up with before that it predicts correctly. Excellent piece of smartphone software.

    Well he's made it to Hulls ground and is now making his way to Burnley which according to the website he should reach on Thursday. I'm impressed already and he's still got 18 days to go.

    Up to £34,031.76 on the JustGiving site, which is only 3% of the target. Still a fantastic achievement but it needs more publicity, which hopefully will pick up as he leaves the frozen north.

    I'm hoping that there are larger amounts promised/donated than are on the Justgiving site.

    Has it been on Sky at all? If not I'm going to email them and have a pop at their big club focus. I'm sure they'll listen to me :)

    It was on Soccer Saturday....they were teasing Le Tiss about joining Franny on the Liverpool-Everton section.

    Yep. And that one line was the start, middle and end. I unfortunately spoke to him while he was with his partner. I apologized to her for interrupting and she replied, "It's ok, he loves it".... enough said :)

    Next club is Everton tomorrow. MLT joining him tomorrow presumably from Everton to Liverpool as that's only 30 minutes. I'm sure he'd do more if he didn't have to get off to do Soccer Saturday :emoticon-0100-smile. Then on to Man Utd in the afternoon.

    United will insist they wipe their feet if they've just been to Anfield.

    Everton to Liverpool in 30 minutes. I think even Matty could manage that. More like 3 minutes.
