Hi Ali
I love skype!!!!!!!!!
The blogs good too xxxxxxxx Jen

Hi Ali ! Back from Switzerland where we had a great time. The sun was shining and the snow was fantastic. Peter and Fiona did not make it to Mt-Fort but made great progress thanks for ski lessons ! No injury as yet... When we left the weather turned and it has been snowing heavily for two days ! That gives you mum and dad time to have a few lattes or white wines !!! Take it easy at the weekend. x MC

Hey Ali! Sorry I didn't even realise there was a message board! How are you? I haven't forgotten about you, even if I don't always write, it's probably because I'm incredibly jealous and wish I was there with you! I really wanted to ring you the other day actually, need to get the skype thing going, what do I actually need to do? All is well and good on my end, hope you are well too. Miss you lots, Marnina x

Good blog post. Looks like a great weekend ahead at the national park. Had a look at the website and looks fantastic. Robbie is off to the England v Scotland game at Twickenham on Saturday. Dad

Hello. Good to hear you are still alive and kicking ! We are off to Nendaz tomorrow, your parents following on Friday. Should be a laugh. We will be having a glass of Swiss white wine thinking of you. x

Hello Ali
Seven girls all to yourself - something your grandad used to dream about !! Your last blog was interesting - you seem to be enjoying lilife out there and coping well with the teaching. Gran and I look forward to going to Guildford next thursday to take care of bamble and jess whilst you dad and mum are away on the ski slopes. I have just been in touch to let Alison know of Qantas/BA cheap fare offer to Singapore as, it seems, she is hoping to go out there. Perhaps she might manage to visit you?? We were in Guildford last weekend and Gran had her purse stolen from her handbag when shopping in town. Fortunaltely she had very little money in the purse but it has been a hassle getting all her documents replaced - credit cards etc.etc, etc,etc,etc Luckily the thieves did not get away with the kitchin sink !! Keep blogging, Occasionally try visiting some places old and interesting, other than cafes and the beach - we would all like to hear what the country is like ? Love ffom G & G

PS How about visting other locations in Vietnam rather than just having a boozy weekend in Hoi An. Dad

Sent a copy of your blog to Connie and Granny M so hopefully you might get a blog message from them via friends and family computers. Connie said she was going to get her god daughter to log her on next time she was visiting her. B & J are fine and missing you. dad

Also, what's Home of Affection-is that just for older children? Which is your favourite place you're teaching?
I'm having an extremely boring time, with 2 very long papers to write this week xxx
