Hey you two,

When are you getting back? Glad you're having a fab time. Hope you enjoy the last few days of your grand trip. All's well in Shef - Lucy and Patrick have moved in and we're going for a drink with Pugh tonight! Lucy knows your new housemate Andy - they used to go on the same school bus...small world!

Are you guys gonna get to Shef before you go to Ireland? Would be so lovely to see you. Also a random question..we're thinking of organising a bran dance/ceilidh (or however you spell it?!) to raise money for the graduation ball so I was wondering if your dad knows any bands in Shef who would be able to play?

Also Helen told me the other day that she thinks she'll have to move out aswel :-( booo! Anyways, hope to see you soon and have a safe journey home!

Love Luce

Right you two,
This is the voice of age, experience and deep envy. You're obviously having far too good a time. You can look forward to loads of puss and vomit during your time in Newry to bring you back to earth. Just been watching a film about young people travelling in Australia who get tortured and snuffed by a crazy. Made me think of you! Can't promise you half the glamour and novelty items in Newry but we do have tours of old bomb sites you might be interested in. Get working on sublimating your Brit accents.

Hey u 2

Sounds like your having a great time in Oz - Jenny's there at the mo 2 visiting Dave for 2 and a half weeks, her mobile is 07717005297 shes could be a million miles away from you, or you might have left already? I'm back in gods country for a few weeks and I head back to Leicester for the bank holiday and then the start of school :-(

I'm missing the Tobago weather (although couldnt stand sweating like a fat lass when I was there!) its cold and wet here and my tan is fading fast dispite Dove Summer Glow! I have shown my mates our holiday fotos and they all agree that I look like a heroine addict in Trinidad - great! I look vaguely human in the tobago ones thank goodness.

I'm looking forward to our reunion once you finally get back to blighty to get the details of your trip and the boys adventures in Barbados plus a tour of sheffields top night spots! Plus Ive got tales to tell you lot too. Take care and safe trip home.

Love Sarah (the old lady)

Hello yous two,

sorry for not writing before, been to busy missing you two. I can't believe it has only been a couple of months since you left, feels like ages, i got no excuses to go to Sheffield on a bender!.

i am so jealous, the amount of stuff you have done already, sounds really cool.

mates, be safe and have bags of fun

speak to ya's soon

Alright my Travellers!

I hope all is well and you seem to be enjoying your new experience in the USA. Thank you for the text message, you will be pleased to know I celebrated my birthday in style on Friday taking in a corporate day at the races followed by a good old drinking session out in Reading! The celebrations didn't stop there and continued all weekend. Next week Im off to your favourite city to cause some trouble up in sunny Sheffield but it wont be the same without either of my two budding explorers!

Sadly I couldn't get hold a ticket to say farewell to Sir Dennis on Saturday but it was on TV and was a great day, I have it on video for you when you return! I am also trying to acquire you a little something from Dennis's Testimonial but I cant promise anything.

Sounds like your having a great time, keep up all the designer shopping! I hope you have fun at Universal Studios and don't bottle out from going on any of the rides!

Take care and will speak to you soon,

Mark

Hey guys!!
How you doing?! Barbados is amazing!! Crystal really sorted us out - the place where we're staying is surrounded by beautiful beaches, 500 dollar a night hotels and has a reef on its doorstep! Just been snorkelling and beaching it loads... and visiting the Rum Shop at night!!! We went to a club called Harbour Lights and it was drinks free til 3am... we didnt leave til 4.30!!! In true english student style, we had the drinks already stacked up on the table!!

How was Miami??! Are you gonna make it your second home?? And where should we not miss??!!

Peeeeeeete!

Hey guys
How you doin? Sounds like you're having a wicked time and not having to work too hard which is excellent! I on the other hand have got keen-bean consultant here in swansea who actually stood in front of me today and talked to the lads about how women make s**t surgeons cos we're not spatially aware, cheers dude! (He may have apoint though!) Otherwise it's ok and the weather has picked up again so we're out til 9 at night playing ultimate frsibee on the beach. Cannot be as hot as wehere you are though, am beginning to regret picking somewhere tropical for my elective, is hard enough to cope here! Got my 4th year results and i got a distinction, wonders will never cease! (But obviously i'll never be any good cos im not spatially aware enough.)

Am so glad you're having a good time, make sure you take care out there
Love you lots

Quality Windies shirt Key!!!

hi
its mum and dad again, now in banff in the rockies. just read your message board, sounds like you are having fun! since our last message we have been to toronto, niagara, which was great. got very wet on the maid of the mist boat which takes you by the actual falls. my hair went very curly ! but i didnt have a strop!! flew from toronto to calgary yesterdayand then onto banff. have been to lake louise today and then on a chairlift up the mountain, to see the views. this would be great skiing. will be in touch again if we can find another internet cafe.
love mum

Hi guys,

Sounds like your having an awesome time, better than being sat in sunny England analysing profiles.
Key I want a picture of you playing beach cricket with some masssive West Indian dude slinging down balls at your head??!!

I trust you have tucked in to plenty of the local brew, Carib Beer...quality, plenty of Jerk Chicken!!

Good work guys, keep sending the stories and don't work too hard!!
England put in another below par performance at the weekend...Portugal next!!

Cheers!!

Ben
