Claudine Angear Dear Claire, Your website looks fantastic. I'm so pleased you had a great time. Can't believe the lady-boy mugging. I forgot to warn you about Vietnam. I'm very sorry that I didn't keep in touch. I am really crap and there's no excuse. What are your plans now? Are you coming back to the SHA? I had a nice Christmas in Austria but have suffered with this awful cold for a few weeks. I hope to go out on a blinder this weekend however. Anyway, hope you are well and recovered. Hope to see you soon XX Claudine XX

Clare Hi Claire, just been catching up with your photos and messages - it sounds like you're having a fantastic time, though I'm sure you would really rather be sitting behind your desk and arranging meetings! How's the suntan coming along??? It's just starting to turn a bit colder here now and I can't believe I've got to start thinking about Christmas shopping already! Things are good with me and Mick, he recently took me to Paris for a surprise weekend and we've just bought new ski clothes for January - can't wait. Ian's taking his driving test on Monday so fingers crossed! Thinking of you - keep on having fun and be safe!

Lisa Hi hun, glad to hear you're enjoying Wietnam so much, I absolutely loved it and you're right, I reckon you're much better off spending the extra time there than Chiang Mai. Have you got your shopping list ready for Hoi An yet?! I can imagine you'll love it there! Forgot to mention to you the Mekong Delta - well worth the trip if you've got the time. Hope you're well and managing to avoid falling down the drains in Hanoi into god only knows what, have you been to Halong Bay yet? We had a good night at the Cross, was good but waaaay too busy, JoJo enjoyed herself though! I'm beginning to look at moving again with Jen, Andre etc, we're looking at moving to Shoreditch so that we can all walk to work - imagine how novel that will be for me after years of crappy commuting!! Other than that there's nothing very exciting to report on - getting ready for the silly season though, work Xmas parties...uh-oh! Take care my lovely and carry on having loads of fun. Miss you loads. Love Lastic xxxx

CLAIRE BEAR Happy Birthday to my bestest friend Me Jo Jo. Hope you have a wonderful day honey sounds like you have loads of plans and wish i was there. Big hugs xxx

Chopper Was gonna write a nice little message but i'm steadily going down hill here sitting at my desk. My sisters boyfriend and I managed to consume 7 bottles of red wine last night over a peppered steak dinner. So cant be arsed anymore!!! Think I'm gonna close my door and curl up on me sofa, actually, i'm more than likley to start spinning out and throw up! Ha, enjoy yourself. Jonny C. xx

Jo Jo Hello baby, hope you are ok? sorry not been in touch, have been rubbish with everyone! Life is pretty hectic at the moment! Have started work at the Source Bar as Promotions Manager and man are they making me put in some hours!!! Loving it though, will certainly be giving this one a good go, get to lay in every morning and be out all night meeting people and get to rub shoulders with the DJ's! Mmmm ;o) They seem to be pretty happy with me at the moment, keep having to polish my halo...... No news on man front, may as well be in the sahara desert for all the fish there arn't! ;0) Everyone here is OK, not a great deal to report, am trying to sort out some stuff for my birthday, going to Halo at the cross on saturday 5th (any of those reading this that would like to come the more the merrier!) and then the boat party on the 12th (same as before applies!) Will be working on my actual birthday but only 8 - 11pm so will get on the vodka's after that!! the joy of working in a bar = laods of free drinks! yay! anyway, am rambling so will bog off but miss you loads my precious, look after yourself as always, love you loads, me xxxxxxxxxxx

Me Thanks everyone for your messages, i love reading them and for all your emails. Also wanted to say Happy Birthday to my little sister Megs who will be 14 on 1st November. Really sorry i cant be there honey but hope you have a wonderful day and i miss you lots xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Daryl Finally found 5 mins to have a look at your holiday snaps. Looks as if you are having a great time. Keep on enjoying yourself - otherwise you just might miss work!!!

Nat Nat Hi ya hun... Just looked through your photos and they look great! Sorry have not posted for a while - it has been hectic, I have been away with work and James was away in the US the week before with work.... Last weekend we went up to Lincoln, which was fun!!! Emm phoned on Friday, we had not spoken for a while as she has been busy doing all kinds of stuff that has given my mother a few more grey hairs!!! Sounds like you are both having a fantastic time and have both got into it!! Miss you, take care. xxxxxxxxxx

Megz Hey Claire its meg hope your having a really good time i cant believe u stroked a tiger, u look a bit scared though! really missing you and cant wait til u come home have a good time and be safe omg i sound like ur mum! miss you i love you lots love you .x.*~*Megz*~*.x.

lastic Hi honey! Wow sounds like you are having a fantastic time which is great to hear. You meet so many people on your own don't you that it's hard to be lonely! I'm jealous but loving hearing about all your adventures. Not much to report on here, it's the weekend thank god. I've had an offer on my house which I've accepted, it's such a relief! Fingers crossed if it all goes through the Pope Street Palace will be no more.... :-( . Having a quiet weekend in preparation for Dublin next weekend - that will be a messy one! Well carry on having fun and keep us updated regularly - love hearing about your travels. Take care, love you lots xxxx
