Hey everyone,

Wanna to say that Ashton and I are famous in Guyana already!! We have been on tv news talking about the deaf community in guyana and how will we contribute to them! Cant believe that we have been interviewed for the news. Ashton saw us on the tv as I missed it this morning. Hope it will come on tv again tonight at 6. Also our name is in the newspaper!! Talking about new volunteers roles in Guyana as we have meet the ministry of foreign affair boss! Been talk to him short as he is very busy man but nice man. Will take a picture of the newspaper and put it up soon.

Take care

Heya Steven, just wanted to say that this is such a brill idea to do this! Hope you're o.k, u still loosing weight?

How on earth are you coping without football?! Can u watch Man U matches out there anywhere? if not, sorry to hear it! Anyway, take care and update this message board regularly please.

Loadsa luv. XXXXX

I have just posted on the other board (Becks, Jess, Soph and Lianne) and now its your turn! Glad you have arrived safely and fitting in already, it sounds like you're gonna have fun but I dont know how you're gonna survive the next year without football first hand! Send us some pics soon if you can, take care of yourself, love lools xx (does ashton share this board too? if so, hello and sorry i didnt come to your farewell party - things have been hectic for me, ask stevo to explain what i've been up to. take care of yourself and have fun, take care of stevo, he's still very young!) xxx

Hey yo Stevo! Am surprised that you are actually in Guyana! Good for you mate as you will have plenty of experiences and also deserved it after 3 years of degree! Us 4 are delighted that you have departed Sheffield without seeing your ugly face!! I´m in Santiago atm and having a brilliant time so far. Off to Argentina later tonight, looking forward to it. Not sure if we can manage to go all way to Guyana to visit you as we only have 4 weeks left! BUT we´ve got a car so.......wait and see! Have a wonderful time and enjoy the experience with Guyana deaf children. All the best. Antx P.S Brill I can take over your position for football in whatever club it is!

Greetings both of you!
Glad to hear of your safe arrival at Guyana, and hope the flight was a good one. Charming of Gill to think that being the first person on the message board is like winning the national lottery(!)
Are you keeping up with the sports news back in the UK such as football/cricket news? if not, let me know and I'll pop them on the messageboard or email! :-)
Still going on around with my job hunting here, and of course, no luck so far! Enjoy your time down there, and of course, keep a eye out for yourself all the times!
All the best!
Ole

Steven!

Glad to hear from your email that you arrived in Guyana ok and seems like you are already fitting in! Am jealous of you, living it up large in the South American wild whilist I am tackling the concepts of a filing system in a small stuffy office!!! Hahaha!!!

Keep us updated and keep the photos coming -

Hey Stevo - Really inspired with your updates as I've had my experiences from Nicaragua and Ghana, in fact we may be going to Ghana again this Autumn for another project! News from my side - We had a baby girl Layla last July 13th and a recent test has confirmed that Layla's profoundly deaf just like the rest of our family which is excellent news for us!

Visited Leeds last weekend for Reese (Dowdican)'s 1st birthday and popped round the deaf club which is going under a good renovation, they should consider themselves lucky with the other deaf clubs in the world especially the developing countries. Black Country won the Four Club tournament by the way.

Jasper's developing his own identity and grasping the basics of language with pointing to a lot of references and we keep feeding him with signs and he's taking five steps before tumbling down - all exciting to us!

Enjoy your experience down at Guyana, can't wait for the photos to come out as there's problems with your photos at this moment!

Take care of yourself mate
