Dear Jane and Andy, hi it's aly and jase here! Hope you are having a fantastic time on your trip. I've had a look at the pictures you posted. I like the shot of the derelict hotel. Well have a very safe trip and really enjoy your 12 months away. We're here at Dan and Mel's at the moment. Having a great time at the BBQ and Dan's just stoked up the BBQ's.
It'll be nice to catch up with you when you return next year.
All the best and enjoy!
Aly and Jase x x x x

Good morning vietnam. I understand that you haven't been feeling too well so I hope you get well soon. I bet you and Jane are feeling rather tall by now. We have all decided that it is an absolute disgrace that all of Mel's siblings have managed to attend Dan's b-day BBQ yet none of his own are in attendance (only joking I think you have a semi valis excuse). Anyway I hope you are enjoying your trip and I look forward to some quality photos and stories on your return.

Best regards,

Leon & Charlene

Andy,
Hope the travels are go well and you've not contracted anything tropical. News in the Entwistle No.1 household is that little Luke was born on 19th August - it couldn't be any other date as that's the same day as my Mum and Leon giving us 3 different generations on the same date, at least I'm not likely to forget it, expensive though.

We also move house a week on Tuesday just to make sure that there is no spare time to do anything constructive like play Golf or go out drinking. The packing will be a joy and the decorating at the other end will be even more pleasurable.

And just to amuse everyone else I thought I would dye my hair blonde (going back to my youth), Tony and Mel think it's brilliant though because it's come out a bit Ginger!!

Anyway, happy drinking, chilling and general lazing in the sun.

Martin, Kate, Jess and Luke.

Hey Andy and Jane,

How are you two? Sounds like you're having a great time (bar the Mucus incident, bleuggh) I'm still insanely jealous you lucky things, Am hoping Dan does a slide show of your piccies. Make sure Elly doesn't lead you astray!

Have a fantastic time and maybe if I win the lottery I'll see you out in Oz.

Take care,

Elaine

Hi A+J, we have got the computer on at our BBQ so all our guest will post you a message. enjoy

Hi Andy and Jane-As I hear that Andy is no longer producing mucus ,sludge gunge and geek I have thrown the stethoscope away and am looking forward to Bali.You have no idea how exhausting being mostly retired really is.
Julie has painted Elly's bedroom this week and is kna...exhausted too.Not surprising really since it is nearly the size of the Albert Hall-three coats on the ceiling and three coats on the wallls. Still the acoustics are wonderful!
Jane's plants are looking Good-Julie is giving them the usual TLC.Incidentally there has always been a question that I would like to ask about Indonesia-Dimanakah kamar kecil?
Love to you all.

Andy and Jane, glad you are having a great trip still, sure Ellie is helping you to enjoy that some extra company. Anyway, wanted you to know that I have a story about that mud pool in Yangshou. Cant tell you now since Mrs P might be listening (Hello Mrs Parsons!), dont worry not too rude but will put a huge smile on your face, if not yours mine !!

Tell you when you are home, an excuse to come and see me. Enjoy.

HELLO Travellers!

How are you both? I am still very jealous that you are travelling around whilst I'm still slaving away at work!
GOSSIP - I'M MARRIED, yes there is now a Mrs P 2 (after Mel of course!). Had such a great day, mel looked gorgeous as my bridesmaid and it was the most amazing day ever!
