Attention: Gazettes (Updated with message from the Gaz)
Attention, Gaz Holgate Fan Club. Your darling has just been injured playing for a rugby club in Italy, and will be out for a month. We’re sure you’d like to send him your good wishes, so post your messages/expressions of adoration/fan mail in Comments.
* * * * *
We got email from Gaz (Cue: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee).
Ciao bella,
Come stai??
Hahaha just seen the link! I didn’t realise you did that. Pretty funny comments too! Here are some photos, use whichever!
I haven’t got many with me looking at the camera or not pulling a stupid face, sorry, so I’m limited to a few.
I tore the lateral ligament in my left knee. Just got to do a lot of rehab work and I should be sweet in a month!
Arrivederci,
Gaz
Send more letters, more! Piu lettere! In English, so your poor bedridden (not) suffering sweetie will feel better.

Oh dear Gaz, mi bello, if I was in Italy I would take care of your damaged parts with the utmost care. Hope you get well soon so you could kick the ass who injured you. I sure know I will if I see him. Ciao, Bello!

Hey Gaz! How’s it hangin? [giggle] I hope you’ll feel better soon, you play a contact sport so expect some pretty nasty bruises and in your case an unfortunate injury. I hope it’s not too serious though, get well soon! All my love

Get well soon Gaz. Use this time to do some good deed, like maybe heading over to our island and do more jock with a book pics!

I’m not a Gazette but I hope Gaz gets well soon and I’m praying for your speedy recovery :)

Gosh, si Gaz puno ng gasgas at gauze… Slap me.
Naiwan ko yung internet device ko sa Manila, kaya di ako nakaconnect from the province. I was so excited this morning to see your posts only to find that the team didn’t make it. :( Wawa naman si Wolffie. Come to mommy!

One month? Is he fractured?
November 2nd, 2010 at 21:35
Gaz, get well soon. :)
November 2nd, 2010 at 21:55
not really a Gazette. but i’m hoping for your fast recovery Gaz!
November 2nd, 2010 at 22:34
Lose the Usher Look. Lose the sunnies. And look at us! Get well soon, Gareth. Buti na lang hindi pelvic fracture hee ;)

While I haven’t decided whether I am a Gazette or a Harriet, this will not stop me from sending Gaz some get well cheer :)

Gaz, pagaling ka. I’ll see you soon. Mwah! #mag-ilusyonba
November 3rd, 2010 at 10:00
not a gazette but i do appreciate the fine specimen of a man that is gaz. hope he feels better soon!
November 3rd, 2010 at 13:07
Gaz, mag-ingat ka diyan. Hihintayin namin ang paggaling mo. Sana ay marami pa kaming larawang makikitang ikaw ay nagbabasa ng libro, merong damit man o wala. Mahal ka namin.

gazie dear, i hope the injury did not involve that body part where the STARway to heaven ends. while from all accounts the gazettes have not outnumbered the hariettes, i’m sure all it would take for the undecided and even the lurkers to finally decide to join your fan club is a 15-second video from where you are right now.
i look forward to your speedy recovery so you can finally answer my pending questions about your “spatula.”
get well soon.

Ciao caro mio!
Come va? Spero che presto si sente meglio. Stai attento sempre, va bene?
Vi mando tantissimi abbracci! :)

I’m starting to admire these guys. You would think that they’re down to earth, funny and even silly sometimes. Heck, even though they can make you feel less macho, they also make you believe that you can invite them for a drinking session. Breath of fresh air from egotistical sportsmen we have…
To Gaz:
Get well soon… your fans are waiting.

Gaz, the US Marine Corps have a recruiting tagline that goes “Pain is weakness leaving the body.” It’s pretty jingoistic, but I think it applies in this situation… actually it applies to rugby in general, I guess. I hope you have a speedy recovery!
November 4th, 2010 at 08:56
Oh my. He looks so adorable in that other photo! Eee! Work that knee and get better!

I remember this Richard Pryor movie “Moving,” and this very funny piece:
Mover: Hi, how’s it hanging?
Richard Pryor: How’s what hanging?
Mover: Your dick. How’s it hanging?
Richard Pryor: Well it’s hanging to the left, that’s how it’s hanging. Shit.
Ahaha! So if I were to meet one of you ladies, I’d ask you this instead
Hi, how’s it tucked?

Gazettes, how hard is it to write a letter to Gaz? You just go like this.
Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz. Gaz.
Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz, Gaz
Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz! Gaz!
I think that should be the fan club hymn.
November 4th, 2010 at 16:58
Gaz, you are very adorable. Be careful when you play next time. If you hurt yourself, you also hurt us(mabuti pa ito at yung isang bata may pakialam sa mga tagahanga. yung isa, ewan ko. hmp).
