You`re disgusting! Charlie was really impressed with you eating the grubs, although he said they were slugs! But I didn`t realise that you were that hard up! Some great photos as usual, the Whitsunday Islands looked very impressive. It made me look them up on the internet.
Your nan`s address is ..2 Spray Leaze, Faberstown, Nr.Andover, Hants SP11 9PH, and I know she would appreciate the card. She`s been at Lynn`s for 10 days, and had lots of tests to get her medication on track, and now that she`s a bit better, she`s returned home.
The cheque did not come through for your insurance, do you want us to follow that up? I didn`t have any choice with your car, it has been chucking it down until the last few days, and it needed protecting, so it had to be fixed. I took it to an independent VW place, but it still cost a few bob.
The third test started today, and after a nightmare start (86/5), Pietersen(115) and Ambrose(67) rescued the first innings to end at 273/7. I`m looking forward to Saturday now, and am going up to Trent Bridge on the train. (England are one up). Mark Hughes is going to Man. City, and Erikson managing Mexico, and Mourinho to Inter.
Daniele, Mike, Charlie and Georgie are going to Centre Parcs tomorrow, and the weather looks like being good for the weekend for them (and the cricket).

Hello Lorna and Al, I do not really think I need to ask how you are do I my god the pictures are amazing and yes I am the most jealous person in the world not only of the holiday but my god Lorna that bikini body is coming on a treat! I was going to say we will holiday together next year but you know what I am good thanks!!!
It looks like you are experiencing things to the maximum why you are away coming back to england is really going to suck for you I hope you know thi right now it is cold and raining we experienced a bit o sun the other week so sorry guys you missed the summer!!!
Work is good Lorna thank you for asking are you excited yet about your new job yet?Is your accomodation 100% all go when you get back, so when are you coming back?
I am so sorry to hear about your relatve Lorna I know that that was your biggest fear why you were away but I am sure she would of not wanted you to be anywhere else but where you are just sharing a thought for her.
Me and Gav have booked to go to Mexixo September 13th I am so excited sooo need the break.
Miss you loads tae care of yourselves ok
Love Sarah xxxx
Becky
Hey,
Sorry to hear that u weren't able to get to Great Keppel. I think u have been to most of the other places I would recommend.
We did go to Atherton Tablelands near Cairns, we stayed at a really nice hostel called On the Wallaby the tel no when we were there was 1800 123 353 or web ad: www.onthewallaby.com.
You can go on rainforest walks or see the waterfalls, the main one is Millaa Millaa Falls and you walk around Lake eacham and you may see some more snakes.
We alaso went bungy jumping in cairns which was awesome with AJ Hackett.
When will you be home as moving home for July, August and September so thought we could have a few good nights out!
Hope you are keeping well. The photo's show some beautiful scenery we are jealous!!! (not a bit), you seem to be capturing your whole experience really well. Your nights will be filled just reminising when you get back. I have now lost 37 1/2 lb so i'm on target which is good. Dad is now fighting against trying to stable, and is eating loads when i'm not around, he thinks i don't know. He has also spent a fourtune on his framing equipment, so when it all arrives it will be all systems go. You wont have any problems having your photos framed when you get back, the only problem you both will have, is choosing which ones you want. Dad also won at cricket on sat, so that cheered him up. Sue is still in hos, they are talking about transfering her to Mary Stevens or poss home, whatever she wants to do they will accomidate her wishes. I went to see her today, and i must say i had a little conversation with her before she fell asleep. Which was good, she asked how you and Hannah were getting on. We went to see Grandma and Grandad this weekend and they were well chuffed with you ringing them, they said they could'nt believe you thought of them and that it was great to hear your voice. So you got yourself some brownie points. We are going down to Bournemouth to see Hannah on Sunday for a drive, hope the weather is better than what it has been of late. It's half term and it is horrible.
I will drop you a line again very soon my sweetie
Take care the both of you and be very safe when you go diving
We've just got back from the Whitsunday Islands as you can tell from our blog, just thought we'd reply to your messages.
Diane and David - Lorna's finger is a lot better she can now go in the water without a plaster. Thanks for taking my car out dad, don't worry about the window or the rattling i need to get it MOT'd when i get back. Dad could you please send me nans address as i have a postcard for her, sorry thats shes not feeling well. Send my wishes. Mum did my cheque come through for the refund of my car insurance, i havn't checked that bank account.
Helen and Chris - How is Sue? Please send on my wishes when you see her next. How is the framing going dad? Did you manage to buy that kit? How did cricket go at the weekend? Send my wishes to Bobbie im sure she'll be fine. What qualification is it mum? How did you get on at WW mum?
Dan, Mike, Georgie and Charlie - Dan it was wicked to see your scan we've been talking about it on the blog so i presume it's common knowledge. Mike how is the club hunting going? Charlie and Georgie missing you loads hope your ok.
Hannah - How did your night out go? Much hangover? What have you been upto? Let me know when is best to call you because of work and uni please for the next couple of weeks.
Abigail - We were really pleased to hear from you. Please send on our wishes to your mum and that we are thinking of her. Did you enjoy the fairy cakes?
Mel and Stuart - Congratulations on your first blog Mel, be good to hear from you again now you know how to use it. It was our first and only snake, but we've seen lots of lizards and dolphins. Stuart i'm gutted i can't be going to the cricket with you and dad i'll have to come next time.
Louise - You've got all inclusive alcohol in Turkey? You pair will be lethal make sure you have some for me. Have you had any thoughts what you want to do for your birthday when i'm back?
Katie - I'm great thanks, were having a fantastic time. How ru? What's the date you leave GCL? What placement did you get in the end? What date do you start?
Laura and James - How's the job hunting going Laura? Where are the 2 of you going on holiday? Say hello to Becky and Scott for us.
Carl - Lorna says say hi to Dave, how is he? Congratulations on the bowling i knew you were a professional really?! Glad to hear that the psycho has been moved, i bet that'll be a weight off your mind.
Becky - We tried to go to Great Keppel Island on your recommendation although we were unable to go due to 1 hostel being shut down and the other under refurbishment. It was too expensive to go just for one day. Any others?
Tina and Gary - Great to hear from you. How's BDM life? We've enjoyed so many different things, but the most recent highlight was the Whitsunday Islands. You should google Whitehaven Beach for an aerial shot (so should anyone else who reads this). we're planning to do a skydive over Lake Wanaka in NZ (people should google this too) Gary would love it.
Thanks for all your messages we are appreciating them more and more.
Miss you all, take care
Love Lorna and Al xx
Mel, Stuart And Tom
I'm no longer a virgin "blogger", but have to admit to not looking at all the photos - don't have broadband so it takes days to open a file. Howver it looks like you are having a brilliant time and was rather envious until I saw photos of snakes. Stu trying to convince me to go to Aus, but not until all spiders and snakes eradicated. I need a count from you as to how many you've seen (behind glass in zoos doesn't count). Life comparably dull at home. Weather predictably unpredictable - as long as it's fine for the cricket next weekend (Stu going to Trent Bridge - and your Dad) then that's OK. Enjoy the sunshine, carry on having loads of fun. Lots of love. Mel.
Dave And Diane
Whoops, pressed the wrong button, I think. Yes I think it was Lucy(Priest) who told me about Fraser Island, and I also think I `ve see it on the TV, ie the lakes and the dingoes. Sounds great, and am looking forward to the photos.
The rest of the photos look really interesting, as usual, although I think there were too many of you stalking animals! ( or did you say stroking).
Daniele had a scan the other day, and every thing looks fine. They`ve all gone down to Northampton for the Bank Holiday weekend. It was a lovely day yesterday, and your mum and I went for a walk around Enville. We took your car for a run, and it`s going well - except I wound the window down, and there was a nasty noise. It then wouldn`t go up again! The window`s not broken, but there is something up with the mechanism. I took the door covering off, but of course underneath there is a metal plate over the door cavity. I did manage to get this loose as well, but could not get behind it to where the glass is to try to push it back up. I knew the forecast for today (Sunday) and tomorrow (Bank Holiday) was awful, so I had to tape it up for the moment. I will take it somewhere on Tuesday, if possible.
Despite the weather, I did manage to play golf this morning - we had to play our doubles competition by today - we decided to play a 9 hole match, and fortunately we managed to win 2 and 1.
Hull City beat Bristol City 1 - 0 to get into the Premiership - cracking volley from Dean Windass (39!). I`m sure Louis will be gutted. Lewis Hamilton has just won the Monaco Grand Prix. Doncaster beating Leeds in Div 1 play off, and England doing poorly against New Zealand in the cricket. I`ve had an invite from Stuart to a corporate day at Trent Bridge for the 3rd test on the Saturday 7th June - so hopefully Freddy will be back fit to make it more interesting.
My mum is at Lynn`s for a break and will probably come here Wed. or Friday, and then I will take her home. She hasn`t been too well - too much Warfarin in her blood stream, so she`s been having a series of blood tests in order to help regulate her dosage.
We both appreciated the phone calls - it was good to hear from you, and that everything is going well for you both.
Stay happy and safe
Dad
Carlos
Hey little buddy...
hope you are both well and havin an amazin time...
Where shall we start..? Footie news..? Avram Grant sacked - fair play to Roman, 2nd in the Premiership and runners up in the Champions League is pretty shoddy..!
Strange coincidence - i was checking your blog at work the other day and a guy who works in my team recognised Lorna..! I think they went to college together? The worry for you is he recognised her from the nudist beach photo (joke) - so Lorna, Dave Sorrell says hi..!
There was a bowling tournament at work last week - 178 and 153 apparently i'm in with a shot of top male - how funny is that!!!??? Maybe you shouldnt feel so bad about me whoopin ya ass now
Psycho-watch = i had a call from an Inspector at West Brom this mornin (woo) and found out this week he is gettin the boot. Fortunately he is away at the mo' - it'll kick off big time when he returns - so thats something to look forward to
Anyway thats enough for now (hark at me stoppin talkin without bein told to shut up) - you take care matey
Luv 'n' Bubbles
Your mate Carl
Louise
