Hi Guys,

Sounds like you're enjoying yourselves! Although I don't envy you the heat - beginning to get quite humid here already. Glad you had cooking lessons Fran - about time you learned to cook Indian! Hey ... I heard that, don't be rude! You must be due home soon? Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Hello Fran & Geoff, your blog and pics are really amazing and you really are having a fab time! I did not think the country would be so pretty both with the land and the buildings. I have a wisdom tooth issue at the moment, and I need it pulled before our Christmas trip abroad, but struggling to get an emergency appt at the moment, just my luck! Keep well and enjoy the next couple of weeks away, love Julie xxx

Hi Fran and Geof

Judith says she likes the sound of the Hotel where you had your birthday dinner. You can tell she is not too good at roughing it. It sound as if you are having a magical time. Hope the Delhii belly didnt last too long. Judith always says Bangkok belly is a great way of losing weight. We are really enjoying the blog and details of your journey. And I am sure you will know, Villa beat Birmingham!

Hi Mum & Dad

Good to talk to you yesterday. Just thought I would remind you of England by letting you know that it's snowing here and settling! For the first time in my life I don't want it to as off to Devon in the morning. Have a cold beer for me whilst I'm on the Gluwein!!!

Love

Hi Fran and Geoff, what a fantastic place and the the Lake Palace and views, wow! You are so lucky Fran to have that view on your birthday over breakfast and your birthday evening dinner sounds amazingly 'romantic' hope it is living up to all your expectations! Don't buy too much, you'll only have to carry it home! Have fun, love Julie xxx

Dear Fran and Geoff, Update on the repair work. Bedroom window rather worse than it seemed. Several frames need replacing, plus completely rotten mouldings at the bottom. Not much choice but to do the repairs. Roy is trying to keep it to a miniumum. Sorry to intrude on your idyll.

Hope you get this. Diane

Dear Fran and Geoff, great blog - I'm impressed. Sacha fine - but I will remember the tip about the avocados! Roy Betts working away on the guttering - making good progress as weather beautiful.

Have more fun Diane, Peter, Dido and Sacha

Happy Birthday Fran. Will you be going out for a curry?

Hello Fran and Geoff, wow you are so clever putting all this stuff on the blog site, you look like you are having a lovely time. Weather here for November is not too bad. Morrisons are in the Pantiles doing their xmas TV advert with lots of celebs. Been to the Spotted Dog today with in-laws and had a lovely lunch, very full!!! Missing you and Sasha lots, love Julie & Ian xxx
