MM on the Muxloe 5 aside team....

An insistent trader in an Istanbul bazaar once told my Dad that whilst he may not have many pennies in his pocket he was nevertheless rich thanks to the good fortune of having 3 sons. Turns out that Pappa Muxloe's only gone and increased his considerable wealth by having two more. That's right it's taken 33 years but he's now managed to assemble a 5 aside team's worth of sons - though by the time the latest arrivals are old enough to play competitively the forerunners, especially Reathamrocks, may no longer be in the kind of physical shape to keep up!


Despite a premature birth and a shaky start in life, my twin baby brothers are now fighting fit and ready to be introduced to the world. Here they are with their favourite (ok equal favourite) older brother Muxloe.

First up, the elder by 10 minutes, is Ben - look at those blue eyes! Ben is destined to be rugby league international which I've decided based on his determined outlook and broad shoulders.


Next up, the true baby of the family, is Alex - how cute! Due to his, already apparent, creative temperament and dainty fingers it is decreed that Alex will be a concert painist of world renoun...

....Actually I don't mind or care what these two become because I'm so proud of them that their being happy and healthy will be enough for me.....so long as they chose Swindon Town over Nottingham Forest that is!

The mind boggles at the thought of a 5 aside team made up entirely of the Muxloe clan...Got to say that looks like a suspiciously clean and tidy looking muxloe flat too!!
