Hello Mike and Claire, finally found time to check out your site and read about your adventures. It certainly sounds as if you are having lots of them! Do you ever go anywhere with people and shops? Places you seem to go to look deserted. We are having lots of adventures of our own here, no doubt Buddy has told you all about them ... Look forward to the next update. Lots of love to you both.

Hello!!! Thanks for the postcard, it brightened up my day! Glad you are having a great time. Will be writing more soon via e-mail and getting all your news.... I don't really have any!

Lots of love,
Anna

I am really enjoying looking at these lovely photos. I am glad you are having such a lovely time. I think you are both very brave to travel so far. The photos will be real treasures to keep. Love to you both, Nanny. xx

Hi Claire,

Hope you make it back to the UK for my 34th birthday bash with the family next year.

Hi Janet, we made it to Kentucky. Margaret is being very kind and looking after us very well. I said hi from you! Haven't seen Rich yet but will probably pop in on him. Went to the horse park and paid the full amount for once. Tonight we're off to a drive-in movie!! Glad you liked the lobster, it was sort of like a horse's head equivalent. Margaret cooked chicken last night and we're having chicken tonight (although she swears blind it's not because of me and that they always eat a lot of chicken!!!) Claire x

Hi guys, hope you arrived in Kentucky safely. Say hello to Margaret and John for me (and Rich if you get to see him). Claire dont forget to buy your tickets for the horse park this time or are you trying to have a police record in each town ? Thanks for the book it turned up this week (and the Red Lobster). Claire have you found any substitute chicken yet? Everyone here says hello - love the photos (wheres the bears ??). Take care and enjoy the Bluegrass State. Janet xx

Walk-in fridge?? Full of beer?? Ker-chingg!! Do you drag a chair in there? Bung me a couple of grits in the post. Glad you're both having a good time. Spoken to any American police yet? I'd reccomend that you are polite to them. Take care!!

PS: The local brews are pretty good to be honest. They like an Ale here as well as lager, not like the warm stuff you get at home though, it's pretty nice. You can also get a 24 pack for about 12 dols and the offies have walk in fridges !!

Alright Buddy,

We're on our way to Kentucky now to visit a lady Claire knows through all her horsey work. Grits is ground corn, tastes a bit like rice pudding but not too clever with your fried eggs and bacon !! Need Amvescap to go up rather rapidly, heard from the letting agents and apparently our balcony to the garden needs replacing, smells a bit bully to me but it's hard to keep a check on these things from America. Going to try and get some more pics up now.

Take care,

Spice.

Greetings to you both, how was/is the Smokey mountains ??
What are Grits ?? I thought you got grit in cockles !!! Where are you off to next ? Whats the local brew like ?

Invesco falling like a brick, currently 267p !!!!!!!!!!!!!

CTG, you'd love the food in Sth Carolina, all fried chicken and grits, the fried chicken is nice but the grits is yours !! Lesley, pass on my congratulations to them both thanks ! It's raining today so we're in the library making use of free tinternet. Having some more photos put on CD now so they should be on here soon.

Spice.

Greetings, hope you are both well - Spice, you're not missing out on the food here - yesterday I had a huge lump of lard covered in chocolate. Chunder city!!! Take care mate. CTG
