Hi guys

It is ages since I wrote a message. I am so sorry. Thanks for latest blog. Do hope you are feeling better Victoria. Thank you Tom for all your tlc to my daughter!

Last day of work until 27th! Would be nice if I was off for two weeks like a lot of others tho! Christmas not quite the same this year with worry of Nanny (still not sure if she will be with us) and missing you. Still looking forward to 2008!! Have a great Christmas. Please try to get well before going off to India Tor! Will no doubt be in touch anyway.

Loads of Love x x x x x x x

Hi. Both. Thanks for the latest blog nice one. Just to wish you a very Merry Christmas,and a happy New year,and to hope all goes well on the next leg.( I hear the eggs are smaller out there.) Cheers for now.xxx

Wahey another blog, very much missed! Sooo Becks came all the way to Sydney to walk around a pitch and not play huh, well am not much of a football fan but isn't the idea to play a game whilst your there on the pitch???

So guys, all set for Christmas festivities in the heat I hope, have fun as am sure you will. How long do plan to spend on your next leg in India?

We're off to the rather colder northeast at the weekend then heading to Dublin for New Years Eve which am looking forward to...

Hope your better Vic and healthy again ready for the nasty indian food (yuk).

Anyhoo just wanted to wish you both a fabulous Christmas & New Year out there, soon be time to see you back in Blighty ;)

Love Cx

Not had a blog in a while.... must be time

Hi Guys

Message for Tom - Looks at though you are having a fantastic time. BHA are 7th in the division I think but you never know. Steve and I was listening to a Radio Programme on Sat night one of those phone in ones after the match and this silly cow rang up and said she would like to see Gary Hart and the Kerry Mayo play. How could she say that as our results havent been too bad. Although not many supporters. I want one of those cakes you got Victoria - looked really yummy.

Sam is playing for Burgess Hill under 16s - they are doing well they are top of the league well I think so.

His golf is still going well - he played a friendly game for Sussex u16s a couple of weeks ago.

Job here well it has gone now, but it is now only a part-time position now!

Yes your replacement is leaving and going to work in pre-press.

Hi Vic

Sorry I missed your birthday - It probably wouldnt of made any difference if I had known. I cant beleive Carolyn and Phil are going to meet up with you.

Sarah on propnet has just had twins - you probably didnt even know she was pregnant - well she was and she had a girl emily and a boy maxwell, they only weigh 3 and a half pnd each.

Tiffany has just done an advert for the Disney Channel - it is showing at the moment.

Sam has just been to Paris for the weekend.

It is getting Christmasssy in Aus?

My neighbour was in Australia for the Big Horse race and even took a horse there but it didnt get in the race and was in another race and got injured so sadly it didnt come home. Thats the horse.

Blackpool 2007

The journey up on Thursday evening was uneventful, apart from the whole of Brighton being gridlocked, due to a petrol spill on the 23, So we ended up leaving 2 hours later than planned.

Jake danced his socks off at the national, winning 1st place in the waltz and coming 4th (singles) in Cha Cha and 5th in (couples) Cha Cha...Brendon Cole eat your heart out!

The hotel was fab, so much so we stayed in our room on Friday night rather than face the ugly northern weather (southern softies or what?). We had a great time, candles, bubble bath, face packs, cheese and wine...what more can girlies want?

We braved the Blackpool nightlife on Saturday while the boys occupied themselves at The dance ball. We met up with Chris, her sister (yet another Pat) and dear old Elsie at some 'wheel tappers and shunters club' for a great northern night.

We've drank lots and eaten more chips and gravy than is good for us, but enjoyed every minute...and the drive home took less than 4 hours!

Can't wait for next year!

Love to you both. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
