hey we are in san diego now which we are liking very much as our hostel is right next to a cafe that does a full english or a roast dinner for $4! happiness! are going on a drinking/shopping trip to tijuana with the hostel tomorrow which we can't wait for (sombreros galore!) and dad, glad you had fun but i bet you any money that our new drinking games win, (they are played with 6inch shot glasses!) we didn't like la as much as we thought we would, santa monica was really nice but where we were in venice was very dodgy and so we had to be back in the hotel b4 it got dark, though we did meet a who was on our trip to yosemite again which was cool! did see some scary thonged men though, nice! we both got very sunburnt as well - we both look like a pair of lobsters! never mind, we'll fit right in at sea world which i am super excited about, shamu baby yeah!!! there may be pictures on here later if we can be bothered to come back down, miss you all xxxx

Hi girls, Sounds like you're living the "american dream" some pics would be nice when you can. I was in Swansea last w/e for a quiet!?! little drink with the boys, hasn't got quite the same image as venice beach but a good time was had, much Guiness & vodka/bull was consumed & I learnt an hilarious drinking game I'll teach you for when you go to Uni!! Miss you loads Love xx xx

Having marvellous lunshy poo's with your Ma Jo. Madly jelous but fear not - we'll be doing gap years with zimmer frames soon. See you in New York! Love Nina, Alison, Mum & Krysie.

Starkle, Starkle little twink
Who the hell you are I think
I'm not under what you call
The alcho-fluence of inco-hol
I'm just a little short on sheep
I'm not drunk like thinkle peep
I don't know who me yet
But the drunker I stand here
The longer I get
Just give me one more drink to fill my cup
'Cause I got all day sober to Sunday up.

hiya girlies, me and jules got this poem and thought you'd like it, (you too anneliesy!!)
hope ur having a good time, practise surfing for next time you come down emily!
love x

hello everyone!!!
sorry we haven't been in touch recently but we've been having such a fantstic time we forgot all about you!! only joking! we just spent a week in san francisco which was absolutely amazing and we cycled across the golden gate bridge and i had clam chowder which was lush, though jo didn't like it much - she also didn't like mexican much either!!! we saw sea lions on pier 39 yesterday and we spent lots and lots of money shopping and then got a limo ride from fishermans wharf to union square and then had dinner on the roof of macys; this was necessary after the tit of a hotel bloke we have had to deal with!!! went on a three day camping trip to yosemite which was unbelievable and so cool, have got some really amazing pictures, we had a camp fire and everything and i found guiness!!!!! ah happiness!! we both got very drunk as we can never be sure where our next beer is coming from; i got so drunk i passed out in the tent and didnt even manage to take my shoes off, and then with only 4 hours sleep, got up at 6.30 and spent the whole day hiking up mountains!!! Impressive!! Me and jo felt we provided the comic element for the trip as most of the people were very english and reserved and quiet whereas we spent the whole time giggling, doing stupid accents and playing 20 questions! i was also happy as the bloke who took us on the trip was full of really random facts and stuff and answered all my weird questions that i ask that i never get and answer to like can goldfish see in the dark? we got the bus today, oh joy! to LA and are now in hollywood staying on the walk of fame, we are going to santa monica tomorrow though to lie on the beach and not move for days until we have a very nice suntan and are not so tired, so that we can go to tijuana at the weekend and then we are going to san diego and i am dragging jo to see shamu!!! she doesn't seem that thrilled at the prospect! anyway, miss you all loads, thankyou all our lovely friends for showing your appreciation for our wonderfulness and writing messages to us, lots of love and kisses and hugs xxxxxxxx

Hey guys,
sounds like you are having a great time! Will be good to catch up when you get back but will probably have to be via visits to each other at uni, i'm living in Portsmouth for the summer as got two jobs down here....need to pay off my student debts somehow! Jo, Matti & Basti are still up for visiting Brighton haha we will appear on your doorstep :D
Hope you guys have found lots of fit american guys to bring back & make up for the lack of talent in Warminster/Codford/Sutton Veney. Take care & hear from you soon xxxxxxxx
