Hi Em and Ali,
We haven't heard from you in a while, but I know that you were going into the "sticks" of Bolivia for a while. Em, I know I promised that I'd send you pictures of Michelle and Keith's new house, but I haven't got round to putting them onto my computer yet as haven't stopped lately. When I do send them though, you'll notice that Leah managed to get in every single one bless her! I hope you're well anyway. Everything is fine here, although I'm trying to persuade your brother into buying a flat, but he's digging his heels in a bit. Eugene, if you're reading this, maybe give him a bit of a nudge! But, he's a bit preoccupied as it is the Next sale this weekend. I'm going home to visit my folks for the weekend - out of the way!!!. Take care and hopefully speak to you soon (for longer then on your birthday anyway!) Love Rob and Euey x

Hi Em
Thought I would leave a quick message, last day at work for a fortnight going on holiday,( remember what those are), will try to catch up when we get back.

Love Mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hola Girls...long time since I posted. Your pictures are fantastic, I can't seem to get 'Don't cry for me Argentina' out of my head!! We all wish Emma a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday!, everyone here is OK, Tom and Haley are off to Spain on Sunday morning..very early, my wake up call 3.30am as I'm doing the airport run, at least the M62 should be passable...you remember that long road between us and Manchester?

Adios both of you.

Love Veronica xx

Hi Emma, Just thought I'd write and wish you a Happy Birthday for Saturday. We'll be thinking of you as we help Michelle and Keith move house. I'm sure we'll be having a drink or two, so we'll have one for you too! Won't be the same without you - I mean we'd get the move done a whole lot quicker if you were there to help too!!! Don't worry, Euey hasn't forgotten about your birthday - SURPRISINGLY, he said he'll try and text you on Saturday. Enjoy yourself. We're waiting for your next report on what you've been getting up to. Robx

Thought I'd send a quick message before leaving work for the week. Hope to get to speak at the weekend, but if not have a wonderful birthday will be thinking of you when moving boxes. Don't forget to take time out to do something nice.

Missing you lots mumxxxxxxxxxxx

Just seen the pictures,they are great, you seen to be having a wonderful time. Sorry about the weather its been really hot here, raced through the first week of wimbledon. Tim's gone but we've got a new hero. Ali will be pleased he's scottish mind you the english have claimed him. Booked hols going to Singapore & Bali even mum and dad can do exotic. Keep enjoying yourselves, Lots of Love mumxxxxxxxx

Hi Em (& Ali), Well we just got back from our hols where it appears we had decidingly better weather than you. Very tanned the pair of us - although Euey is not pleased that my face has tanned better than his! We have tons of pictures - the Dominican Republic is beautiful so will put them on website soon. The picutres are better in that we bought a new camera at the airport - 7.2m pixel cybershot. Euey wanted to go one better than your parents and Michelle and Keith!! Anyway, take care, hope the weather better in Chile. Love R&Ex
