Hello guys! Just sharing some love as part of the new not-crap-at staying-in-touch identity. That Vietnam, they've sure got some good stuff, eh?

I wanted to ask you this last time I was here: How does answering 4+2 (6) let them know that I'm not posing spam? x x x x

Hi Guys, sounds like you're having a great time. More playoff misery for Watford! Meanwhile Wednesday have got last day possible relegation to contend with! Izzy's off school with a cold but apart from that we're all good. Keep up the good work.

Cheers M

I just thought I would share that I bought a beautiful pair of shoes yesterday...for £9!! You would be proud Rois!! Plus I walked 5k in the rain last night - the training continues! Home at the weekend, hopefully get to hear your voices?!!

Love you, have fun x

Keep safe -love to you both - babs x

Hi James,

Great to see your having the time of your life! Things haven't changed much here....work goes on....trying very hard to fill your shoes. Im sure you haven't given the place a second thought. The pictures look fantastic......very jealous not to be seeing it first hand. Look after yourselves and keep up the adventure.

Best wishes Tracey

Man U DID IT! Dad is off to Russia (not). He must have marched at least 5 miles up and down the hall in the second half - if Barca had scored an away goal, they would have gone through. Relief all round - did not want a repeat of Saturday's deep depression.

Great blog and photos yesterday - well done. Hope to chat to you again over the weekend. In the meantime, travel safe. XX

Hi both, just to say Rois, Claire was quite right i did set the table alight, but all was ok just !!! but as you might have guessed candels are banned at my get together on sat, going to stick with flowers, more appropriate for an old girl, Claire did your family proud with her Riverdance, she kept her arms straight and up came those feet, we will raise a glass on sat to absent friends and send some photos with Claire, take care and keep safe love the Avery's

Bonjour Rois and James!

I must say that your pictures are great and the blog is in my favourites at work!;)

I just wanted to say hi and say that we are all fine here is Sheffield. We are going to Paris for my birthday and I just can't wait to drink black coffee from a bowl once again!lol Also, we are moving back to Nether Edge again (it'll be my 3rd time!) and we are quite happy about that. Anyway, hope you are going to have a great time wherever you go !

lots of love,

aga (and lee but he's not here).xxx

james, the ghost said to the bee:

"BOOBEE!!!!!"

Lovely pics! Why are the monkeys so noisy?

love xxxxx

Oh Dear.....It was awful.....I've nothing positive to write.........I've bought you the second half of season video showing all the highlights......I didn't even need to pop down to the Hornet Shop to purchase.........I bought you a blank tape from WH Smith...Take care, Mind How You Go, Lee.

Hello both
You are making me want to visit Vietnam more and more! Hope you are taking lots of pictures?!? James did you have a bit of meal envy last night then? But as Rois says, that's over with now so we won't go on or dwell on the fact that she had a nicer meal and probably didn't leave behind as much as you would have liked to compensate for your pasta :-)

Suffering from sever Monday-itus after the weekend that was Bec's hen do! Smosh you will not be surprised to hear that we giggled a lot! Highlights include Mrs Avery setting the table decorations alight and there was a spot of riverdancing. The kareoke was hilarious. Karly put me down for Runaway by The Corrs! At least there was no Jimmy Nail this time.

12 days to go until our reunion! So excited
Lots of love xxxx
