Wishing you a very Happy Birthday across the miles from Home...Love you John and take care xxx

Not heard from you for a while so hope everything is ok. Sounds like you are having an awesome time, can't wait to see the photos. The gorillas sounds wonderful. I watched Gorillas in the Mist the other night, still made me cry. Would love to do it but probably not brave enough.

Take care and don't forget that sun tan lotion.

Hi,

Hope you're alive and well. Why no blog updates yet? Come on, I want to hear all about your adventures!

All is good with me. I'm off on holiday week after next, so hoping the 'ash cloud of doom' which has grounded all flights at the moment clears soon! Been to Brighton today to make the most of the nice weather we've had this weekend...'cos to be fair we don't get much!

Get in touch soon.

Love,

A

West Ham had to win eventually! It would have been even better to keep it at 5-0 though!

I'm going to try and call over the next few days, it's not easy though as the time difference is now 10 hours ahead. I'll try and call you early one morning (Oz time) which whill be 9-10pm in the UK.

Enjoy the rain... :-P

Hooray..West Ham managed to score 5 goals and win against Burnley...England wacked the South Africans today in the cricket...xxxx

Sending love from home....xxxx

Hey,

I tell you, I came extremely close!! I was so annoyed by the hole thing it was unreal, I was hardly in the best of moods having left Cape Town to start with...

Oh god the Jager. This has to stop!!

Enjoy New York! Email me about the kick in the teeth if you want?

Weather is pants! Absolute monsoon raging out there. Was pretty crap yesterday too. My sun tan is fast becoming a distant memory!!!! Arghh!!!

Take care.

Hello you,

Nice rant and well done for not hitting anyone at J'Burg Airport! Glad you're safely in Aus and you've manage to find a buddy already.

I knew you'd end up staying in Cape Town longer than you planned. It's obviously the lure of the Jaeger! I expect you to be less of a lightweight by the time you get home!

It's my last week at work (woohoo), before I have 3 weeks off and go to New York, before starting my new job on Dec 14th. All is okay, think I got the kick in the teeth we'd dicussed, but I won't go into too much detail.

What's the weather like? Good I hope. It's annoyingly rainy, windy but not that cold here.

Take care & hope to hear from you soon.

The english witt and sarcasm is quite unique and not grasped by all cultures!

P.S. I'm now two hours ahead of UK time since you put your clocks back.

I'm flying to Namibia on Thursday with Air Namibia.
