Well Chappies,
Spent a brief but interesting 24 hrs in Hiroshima staying with an aptly named American couple called Beverley and Joel!!! They run a world friendship organisation and rent out rooms in their house at a supposed non profit! We read in the lonely planet guide that small tatami rooms caost 3500 yen, bout 20 quid! Anyway, we th…

hi guys...

Its great all this post card malarky isn't it. Seeing all the news as it unfolds from you lovely little pixies and the extended pixie family. Good to see Nick is still true to form eh. I always felt my most heart felt secrets were safe with him! I can't believe hes nearly 30. Judging by all of those out of date "fashionable" shirts he wears I thought he was at least 42........an unemployed librarian.......desperate virgin......short sighted.........I could go on, but I've only got six hours left in work today!! Can't help but love the bugga though. And what a shock - Al is still Irish!! Staggering! And Burty with purple hair - sounds like a cross between Bernard Manning and Mark Almond to me! And Anton with an 18 year old soap sud...well that just opens up reems and reems. where do you start?
Me - yup I got loads of news. Mostly involving a lady from Canada. Saw a deal in Kitties were you got one free with a pint of the black stuff. Thought I'd give it a go - and yes its been a pretty good deal so far. I have to say you get more than you bargain for though. I'll give you the juice when I see ya.
Well I'll stop my rambling now. Just wanted to send you bunnies huge love and hugs. And of course the opportunity to spout a little abuse about Elkins simply couldn't be passed up. Did I tell you his mother has had the op and is now called Derek. I always thought she was half there anyway judging by the amount of hair on her face. At least we know were Nick gets his confusion about his sexuality from. Like I said I could go on........
Loads of love looking forward to seeing ya soon.

hello wee sweethearts. great to see the photos. amazing! just a quick newsflash to fill you in on the plymouth drizzle. Firstly and most importantly anton has developed a serious taste for S & M and looks to be going dirty with some girl called Sopie. (I like to call her soapy as she in to the lubrication). been round a few times. looks 18. fair play to the northern monkey/gorilla.
Burty is going from strength to strength. has plenty of new catch phases such as 'fabulous'. took him camping last weekend near some long soft grass. he positively relished in it, jumping, diving and generally hurting himself. oh and by the way he has purple hair. no suprises!
Alan is still irish and attempting to fulfil his whole summer as an unemployed sport analyst indulging in the finest points of sky sports.
Claire and james are now married and I slept with one of the bridesmaids (what a cliche) had great boobs though. but more importantly john and emily are going to get engaged but we are not suposed to know. Sarah fenner let it slip. I told her your secrets safe with me. they are in france travelling. could be then, who knows.
And dont worry, still taking the ususal trolley load of mail to work addressed to you both to send to your parents. Gits! I must send you the royal mail change of address web site.
Lisa came down last week and took all her kitchen stuff so we are usuing napkins as plates. what a f***er. would'nt be so bad but alan insists on having a runny sauce with everything.
went on mates stag do last weekend with len and still recovering now. did 38 hours of solid drinking. only five of us managed it but was a riot. stags old man has two bars in the marina and had the lock in of lock ins. usual antics got all five naked (+two girls) for about six hours. will leave the best to when i see you.
Hope you guys are having a giraffe. by the way, nice tokyo fringe nik. see you in six weeks for the party of the decade.
love ya
nick

Hello! Wow the pic's look great, you seem to be having a great time. You went sailing in the Whitsundays - lucky bast@rds! Run out of money yet -sod the credit card just spend, spend, spend. You'll only do mit the once (maybe) so do all you can.
The Wedding was great, thanks for the message (your Mum wrote it) and the Salt pig and glasses - as you know glass are fundemental - I could use a bottle but you've got to let the air in when drinking, slows you down. (sorry random remark).
Any way Can't wait to see the pictures of USA and San Fran, not sure when you get there if you haven't aready. Some of the names of the places I haven't got a clue where they are in the world but look beautiful.
Got back off Our Honeymoon which was great, did apsolutley sweet F.A. and enjoyed every minute of it, I even read three books which is unheard of.
Let me know w number when you get to the USA (If you want) and I'll give you a call.
Geraldine

ITS ALWAYS BETTER ON HOLIDAY,
SO MUCH BETTER ON HOLIDAY.............
Livin' the dream! I get the distinct feeling you kidz are on a buzz!
You must be in Byron now eh. Sa 'ave ya staaared pikin up tha accen yet? I bet ya 'ave ya staaaary eye'd poms!
If you stay there long enough, you too will grow dredlocks, own a dog with a bandana, and making a living by playing crap dijeridoo on the street corner. You have been warned. The first signs are calling everybody 'man' and thinking that '...everything is spacey!' so watch out.
Thinking of ya kidz
love and hugs

hey gals (kel and nat)
Ran into crazy gemma in a bar in ailie beach, the gateway to the whitsundays!
recognised her even though her hair is really long now, but she still has a
distinct drunken Gemma look about her!!! 'Sounds like she's had a brilliant time here and is leaving round the same time as us (the 6th). We both agreed Natalie Samaranayake that you have got to get your ass out here, it is after all where you grew up or so I was told! Kel hope the exams went okay! By the way that cheap and nasty wine (goon) is quite drinkable - after the 3rd litre! Though poor rob, we have cut down drinkin a lot cos the good weather makes you feel like such a slob when your hanging! And he's coping brilliantly on pasta and sauce! E-mail ya two soon!
Kelly
Hey little one (and nic!!! - just kidding),
Glad to see you're having fun, photos look amazing! Got your text the other day but my phone couldn't get one to send to you. Hope you're both well and not abusing the cheap wine Nat told us about. Gotta dash cos i'm off to play squash (yes Nic it is indoors!)
Love ya
Kel xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
