Off the top of my head (so there could be errors):

import socket
s = socket.Socket()
s.connect((10.214.109.50, 29999))
s.send("Hello, Mum\r\n")

That should point you in the right direction, anyway.

There is a higher level socket framework called twisted that 
everyone seems to like. It may be worth looking at that too - 
haven't got round to it myself yet.
