Hi guys. Vic has my little brother been replaced by Greengrass???
Great photos once again. Bit worried about lettin bro do any cookin, I still remember and laugh at the Pink Jacket potatoe episode. Vic don't believe him when he says it tastes good, it doesn't, but he will eat it all just to prove a point!!!!

Nothing much happened other than the continous excitment of Robbie comin to Leeds. Can't wait!!!!! (oh and u 2 comin back home!)

seeya soon, Lucy xx

Hi Guys The pictures are great but when are you going to get a haircut Simon. Having a restful weekend, i.e. no work at Lous. Trying to sort out the outside lights and the fish tank. Repaired Lucys computer today got the floppy disk working and loaded windows XP and Microsoft Office. Thought I might have to ask for advice as the programs would only run for 30 days but managed to get it sorted. Shelias in Saudi at the moment, Stuart and Kays wedding was on Wednesday, they went out for the week. Did you manage to watch England and Argentine, a great game for a change? Looking forward to seeing you next month.

Take care Dad

Louise, Folks and Nanna Hall, great to hear from you all! Well i think it´s fair to say we´re starting to settle in to Forest life - infact i think we´re quite enjoying it now! We´ve added some photo´s to show where we are living and some people of the people we are living with. Off to try and bake cakes, pizzas, and Oh yer...Save the rainforest (keep forgetting that last one) Speak soon! Ps.A Big Thank you to Graham and Mandy on the Robbie Tickets! - Vic is one happy chappy (me too)!!! Love Sig & Vic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi, Great photo's....Looking forward to the next postcard to fill us in with more of the details behind each Argentine adventure...Luv Mum & Dad xxxx

you guys are just amazing, reading all that you have done does not seem real, its like reading a comedy/drama book, but you guys are actually doing it, it does bring a smile to my face. I must say that since your postcard from johnny jupe we have not heard about him at all, i think his fantasy now lies with someone else!!, no not you simon, its that girl from another island. not much going on here just the normal homely stuff, brett is going for another job at the same place he has been working for but more security, me im just the bum that lies around the house and takes it easy, oh how i wish, amanda is well, so is ellen and all her tribe, but just remember if ther is only one thing you get from your travels around the world is that tinned fish never goes off, always thinking of you both, will be in england for the wedding. lots of love lou

Just read your postcard, you 2 certainly know how to live! Fresh eggs on the doorstep or should I say, muddy
puddle. Fancy it raining! What did you expect in the Brazillian Rain Forest! Just be careful you don't get trench
foot.
It sounds like you'll be doing your bit for the environment. It's going to be a little of a come down when you get back to England, perhaps I'll get dad to build you a little shack in the garden to make you feel more at home!
Anyway great to hear your safe, watch out for the creepy crawlers.
Take care.
Love to both
mum

hi both,
just back from leics visiting the outlaws sunday lunch for grandads birthday. Had one too many vinos last night so was a little worse for ware!!. Nice to catch up though. Had a look at some of your fantastic pics, particularly like the green lagoon that would make a fabulous print especially as you could say you had been there.
Your dad looks really slim hes half the man you left behind earlier this year!!.
Loved your birthday celebrations for his 50th the likeness was uncanny!! he could almost have been there with you.
sometimes it seems you have been gone ages and yet I can beleive your trip is nearly over.
The weather here is rivolting, its dark and cold I've got SADS!!
My mum and dad are off to arizona tomorrow lucky devils!! and nan and grandad are well and still spending our inheritence!!.
see you at christmas.xx

Hello again, Sounds like you've had an eventful start to your jungle adventure with th VW struggling up the mud track & all those creepy crawleys! We had a great day in Leeds with Katie yesterday. You would have been proud of her. Journey back was a bit of a nightmare. M1 shut in 3 places through accidents & it took twice as long as normal. Just grateful we didn't get stuck getting there. City drew 0-0. Not sure what DL did. GB losing 8-0 to Auzzies @ half time in Tri-Nations. Turned really cold now. You'll notice the difference when you get back. Gave nan latest batch of photo's @ football today. She's looking forward to updating herself with your adventures tonight. Keep the stories coming. Take care. Love Mum & Dad xxxx

Hola me Amigos, welcome to my country! I hope the South American people are treating yo well gringo's. If your passing the Chico favella near south western Rio stop in and see my cousin Jesus dominto Talbertiniho, he'll show you a good time.
Ain't been able to get on your message board untill i got the net at my new job for Praxis Partners Solicitors. You fall over and are in need of a Personal Injury claim gives a bell. Sig i am going to rip off your balls, can't believe you met the KOL clan, they are gods of rock n roll. I must worship you for touching them.
Love reding your adventures, very depressing indeed. Puts my little travels in the summer to shame. Looking forward to your stories on your return. Must dash an Injury is calling (well the telephone is) Asta la vista baby xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
