Jermaine "Stevie" C I knew Ashton when he was at school with me (Thorn Park) and reading about this, what seems to be a great adventure, made me proud to be a Deaf person. I only wish I was there with them! (If I knew about this, I'd jump on the first plane and go with them!) It is a very worthwhile cause, to be volunter one's time. It's noice to see Ashton's face after nearly, appraoching 20 years since we both left school!

kurt bynoe how are you ?

Nigel It's good to see that you blokes had a great time in B.G. The natural beauty of Guyana is in the interior as you have experienced. Places like Tumatumari, Mahadia, in the Potaro region are massive cool. Any way! I was surfing and discovered your site-By the way great job you all are doing. Have a great balance of 2006 or what is left of it Ta Ta! Regards, Nigel

Steven W Hello Everyone!! I am back and I have been sleeping a lot, trying to catch up with my jetlag!! lol but am doing well and i am glad to be back with my family but sad to leave fantastic country and i will never forget them forever and ever. I had a fantastic year out there and will have lots of experience to share with u all!! I am looking forward to see most of u my friends! I have met some of charlton football team, and tracey and duncan so far!! still many more people to meet and catch up with lots of chats!! :D I want to say many thanks for putting a message or 2 on the board as it is great to hear from all of u no matter what happened in England!! Last of all, I am uploading all the pictures remaining as i have had a really busy last month in Guyana, spending lots of time with my deaf and hearing friends before returned to UK on 31st July. So hope u enjoy July pictures and i will update the postcards when i can!! Lots of love always Steven/xxxxxx

Tom WELCOME HOME MATE!! I look forward to catching up the news with you soon!

auntie theresa hello steven, weve been checking out your off exploring site looks like youve been having a great time, but all good things must come to an end, and we are looking forward to seeing you again in august. lots of love the wild bunch, keith theresa nicholas and oliver xxxxxx

Antonio Hey mate, hope you are well and enjoying on your last month in Guyana. I know the feelings cos you've been there for long enough and know everybody. I'm sure all of them would feel much appreciated of what you have done and surely they won't ever forget you!! You are one of the few people that i know who have managed to stay abroad for a year (including Aman). It would be hard for ya when you come back and be in reality just like everyone else! I have read most of your postcards and messages, it seems very interesting as i and all of us want to know what you have been up to and helping what.... Also the pictures certainly look wicked. Of course its completely different to mine as i've been to place to place while u r stuck in 1 country. But you have had all the experiences which i don't have. You have inspired me for what you have done in Guyana helping deaf people that I would love to do the same sometime in the future. Looking forward to see you and hear all your stories! Antx

Stevo Hey my friends and families! I am soooo sorry for not able to reply to message board for aggggeeeesss as i have been busy and enjoying my last moments of Guyana before returning to UK. I will surely miss here so much as i am getting on really well with deaf people but surely the time is too fast for me to leave just now. :( but i am sooo glad that i am making good bonds with many of them and i will deffo cherish my memories here forever! :D I am entering the last month of my year stay here and i am slowing down on work now and more time to be with deaf people and community to provide more facilities for them. will be exciting and sad month for me and ashton too. Well I have recently updated the Deaf awareness week photos on Photo albums and hope u enjoy the pictures as much as i did for the week as lots of work have been done and it came out as successful as the deaf awareness day. I am so pleased with it as we involved lots of guyanese deaf people in teh project which they are doing great job to get more awareness across guyana via tv, newspaper and in person too. i cant wait to tell u all about it when i return to UK! :D Missing u all always and cant wait to see u again after a long year apart :S Mwahs Steven/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mark G Steven, when will you be coming back to UK? As you said that you will fly off from there on 3rd August, arrives at Gatwick on the next day which will be 5.30am. Apparently Joanna Raper said that you will be flying off earlier than 3rd? Which exact date it is then? Mark
