Just saying, October 5th A&M has a bye so you can sit in your hotel throwing water bottles in the trash or head to Dallas and eat fried jalapenos wrapped in bacon and stuffed with Nutella at the fair.

I don't live that close to the fair but you're welcome to the guest bedroom. Heck, you could even hit up the Londoner for some real American food.

Yet again, I am extremely humbled by your posts.

In terms of a road game, I've scheduled to be out here for the first 4 home games at Kyle Field. I'm then heading home for just over a week (England calls). Then back for the second stretch at Kyle Field. As much as I wanted to fit in a road game, my budget and the logistics of it just wouldn't allow it. I could have probably fitted LSU in at a push but the fact it's a two week wait between the Miss State game made it impossible.

But who knows, if the first book is a success I'd be more than happy to come back for an 'On the road with the Aggies' book two. You never know. We'll see.

We need to arrange a pint session for EnglishAggie and Spencer Nealy

I somehow picture English Aggie's reaction to his first experience at Kyle Field being similar to Stephen Fry's trip to the Iron Bowl.

As others here have said, I can't wait to get my hands on the book. Be sure to let TexAgs know if you run out of supplies (food, beer) as I am sure you would soon be flooded with more than you could eat or drink for the remainder of your stay.

I hope you enjoy your time in the place we all hold near and dear to our hearts.

Gig'em and Cheers!

Great stuff mate! You can put me down for a copy of the book.

Well if you haven't already accepted an invitation to a tailgate party this weekend, let me be the first. We tailgate at the Reed arena parking lot and you are more than welcome to join us. I'll even provide sober transportation. Just say the word.

Very fascinating stuff. Blog has been a delight to read thus far.

We know you have had your first real life encounter with real live Texas Cowboys ... Have you had any encounters with some real live Texas Cowgirls yet?

Brit fight!!!

As a Northerner, that fight would be a more epic beat down than the Auburn game last year! Then again I'm pushing 40 and he's a young pup, so it might be closer to the Rice game where he hangs on for a while before the knockout!

Haha, Sorry EA. I couldn't think of anything more original

I like this guy.

Texags should have English Aggie on the radio show to talk about his stay here in aggie land and some about his book

This is brill, Josh. You sound like a solid bloke and we look forward to reading your book on our Texas Aggies. Gig'em!

Is it just me or is this Green Street Hooligans in reverse? English journalist comes to America. Develops a passion for the most popular sport in town. Outcast at first, but ultimately becomes "one of the guys." Throw in some back alley brawls with some of the other "Firms" from the SEC and you've got yourself an instant blockbuster. IMDB top 5,000 potential?

Seriously great stuff EA. Sign me up for the first copy of your book when it comes up.

Gig'em.

Once I arrived at the stadium, I had guessed that GameDay would be easy to find. It wasn’t.

Eventually though, I plucked up the courage to ask an already drunk group of tailgaters, who pointed me in the right direction. Well when I say that, I mean a dude drunkenly whilst having a piss threw his arms at a building and gestured that it would be somewhere in that general area. Luckily, it was. Cheers pissed man.

And this is why I'm glad we don't serve alcohol in Kyle.

How many of you read the post with a British accent? Guilty

I read it as the Queen of England. I haven't heard her talk much, but that's all right because I am a dude and terrible at impersonations.

Get this great guy into the TexAgs studio!!!

This is good bull. Thanks for sharing and welcome. Hopefully this post will get you some invites to some tailgates.

Edit: I also think you would make a great guest for the TexAgs Radio show...you should contact Gabe about that.

Read all of your posts and loved them. Put me down for 10 copies of the book. It's fun to read your posts in your voice because you are almost always expressing my opinions.

You are an honorary Aggie for life!

He needs to get an "Aggie Spirit" tag.

Welcome to the Aggie family, Josh. You have a brother in Colorado!

Wow, I'm hooked. I had to read every single blog. This guy is already a great Ag. I haven't read the comments here but hope someone has suggested getting him on texags radio! He's going to be a celebrity the next few weeks.

Put another shrimp on the barbie!
