You are looking so brown!
Please give Tim my regards when he gets back in - looks like he's the old man of the group! (sorry Tim) - got to be infitately better than cutting trees down in Suffolk, and good to see him in full technicolour with radio to hand! This is a really good blog and its great to keep track of what you're all up to....from his loving brother Phil.
OK its got to be at least as hot here as it is there and we haven't got a pool to cool off in! Even Dad is keeping out of the sun. We like the blog and even Jacqueline is checking it every day Rachel!
Hi Sarah, just read the blog for the first time and you are doing a great job. Looks like you are all working very hard preparing for the arrival of the venturers and the exciting times ahead! I will keep checking in to see what you've been up to. Missing you loads. Love Amanda xxx
Hi Gemma.Wishing you a very Happy Birthday and a wonderful year to follow. I hope all is well with you. I've been up to Leeds and back to move Jack to his new house and he came back with me for a week, none of which is as exciting and exotic as your travels!!! Pebbles is fine, so don't worry about her. With much love, Auntie Pamela XXX
Hi Gemma. Sorry to hear you were poorly but bravely carried on...well done you.XX
The date today is 1/9/2009 Jack came home for 2 weeks, he arrived yesterday. It's his 21st on the 8th and then I'm off to Ireland on the 10th and back on the 15th september, so I won't see him much!! I'm off to see a friend from school that I haven't seen for 35 years. She is an artist and lives near Kerry. I managed to get the flight for £1 each way and a £10 booking fee, so £12 for the round trip!! I'm then off again, to the friend I usually go to see, as she is getting married in october. I got the same deal as before, only this time I'm going to Dublin! As you can imagine, I'm delighted!!!
It was a bit chilly the other night and so I put the central heating on for an hour. Pebbles decided it would be lovely to lie on the windowsill just above the radiator in the living room, she looked as if she was in heaven, I took a photo so you can see how happy she looked, ahhh!
I'm very much looking to seeing you on your return.
With much love, Auntie Pamela XXX
