Hiya Ames and Clare

Been freezing here but sunny during the day - our heating has packed up again, major we think, dont know when we can get it fixed - these things always happen at the weekend! Jacks ok, writing up his research project, Harry gets his exam results later on this week, Naomi has another week before she is 18...Grandy and Hilary are fine though reluctant to go out in the cold...Dad and I are going to the theatre Tuesday...looking forward to it (it will be warm there!!). Carol will be coming to see us all in April, havnt sorted out date yet...skype you soon! Love mumxxxx

Hi Girls glad you are well, Thanks for the Telecon Clare we worried that you might have got lost in Figi. glad you are moving away from the San Andras Fault line after whats happend in Chile. It must be geting near for California to have a Quake. Mind how much you gamble in Vagas and don`t lose to much!!!! Well the days are getting longer here and today was very sunny and spring like so perhaps spring is here.So look after yourselves and God Bless see you soon Love G/DadXXXX

Hey honey! I've finally got around to looking at all your photos!! Amazing! You're so lucky to have been to so many amazing places and done so many amazing things!! I have been to Penang for 4 nights and loved it - very humid but lovely. Stayed in KL for a matter of hours so didn't really see much of that and when we went to Oz we were quite a way from any big towns, i.e. Melbourne so didn't really get to see much of the real Oz. Very jealous!!

Well I've got news - I'm just over 13 weeks pregnant!! Very exciting! :)

Hope you are still having a fabulous time and I can't beleive it's time for you to come back - seems like you just went! You've done so much!

Maybe see you sometime soon xx

Amy ps, Grandy got his Christmas card last week, the one with Europe positioned in Australia. He and Hilary said to thank you. Might be a good idea to put a stamp on the next card you send! Mumxxxx

Hiya Ames and Clare! So whats it like in Fiji? Sunny? Hot? Sandy beaches? Guess what! It SNOWED again yesterday. Now the coldest winter in 20 years, so think what you are both missing!! Skidded on some ice yesterday am, scary.

Harry, Naomi, Tina and I went to Coventry on Monday to look at uni. You would love it - lovely mixture of old and modern, the campus was easy to walk around. Lots of lovely shops, lots to do and you will definitely want to go there and visit (Naomi will tell you why!).

Hope you enjoy the PADDY course, lots of love MUMxxxxxxxxxxx

Clare have left you a message on Facebook let me know if you get it. Hope all is sorted now and you are feeling better.

love G dad XXXXXX

Hey girls,

Harry told me about the passport Clare, must be a worry, hope the rest of the trip is ok. :) there... a smiley face to cheer you up and make everything better.

Love Naomi -x-

Sorry about all the bad luck. Keep cheerful!! Hopefully you will get the passport quickly Clare!!

Love to you both.

Hello,

Well done on the skydive Amy, I like the pink plane! The beach in the recent pics looks gorgeous, pity u you spoilt it with footprints hehe! The guy in the white shirt can home with you if he likes!!! ;)

Take Care

Love Naomi -x-x-

Wow, Amy, your parachuting looks amazing. I've ALWAYS wanted to do it so you're inspiring me to get on with it. Love the photo of you in the plane just before you're about to jump - that's the most insincere smile I've ever seen!

I'm in the middle of reading up about Jordan, in preparation for a big holiday there next Spring - first to Egypt for a week, then two weeks in Jordan as there's so much to see. Can't wait. This year will just be week-long beach rest-type holidays.

The weather is absolutely freezing here, but on the up side the earth is swinging more towards the light so roll on end February when it begins to get really light in the mornings and evenings.

I've nothing more exciting to tell you; life and work is ok at the moment. You look like you've lost a lot of weight from your photos?

Lots of love and keep safe.
