Well guys im no longer a promo girlie, I told em I quit this mornin thts why im up at this stupid hour grrr!!! I cudnt do it, I stud outside for 8 n half hours in the freek weather on friday, the burnin sun which gave me a headache n then thunder, lightenin n all the rain tht came with it n I didnt make 1 sale so I dint make a cent, PLUS I was ready for hittin the girl I was out with on friday cos she was a fruit loop n she needed smackin into reality. I also got told to F*** off which topped it for me so amy is no longer a promo girlie yey!!! Me n potter (one of the lads I live with) went for a walk round where we live last nite n I handed my resume into a few of the bars there n one of them seemed quite promisin so hopefully sumthin may come of tht, n its open nearly all day n nite so I can get sum hours in n then just roll home. OH the agency tht we got our flat thro put a $1000 bar tab on at this club on oxford street in the city on friday nite so we went there n everybody had drunk the bar dry within 15 mins so I only got 3 drinks out of it, we were gutted. I went to the beach on saturday at a place called coogee which was nice. Me n hev went with the two lads (potter n james) who we live with n then two friends of theirs from bloody whitwood haha!!! Potter n james ended up chuckin me in the sea n the waves are sO violent that I got taken under n smacked my face n everythin on the bottom of the sea, I cudnt find the surface of the water either so I paniced like hell n then when I managed to surface I lost all my dignity as my bikini top had popped up round my chin so everything was on show to the whole of coogee beach, I wasnt happy haha, its funny tho now!!! We all went out for a mega big group meal sat nite which was nice n then our aim was to go back to the flat n play poker with match sticks lol, but we ended up fallin asleep as soon as we got back. Yesterday we went to the pool round the corner from us, its in the uni grouds. Its only $4.50 for as long as u want n its this really nice outdoor pool, I dont think they have indoor ones over here, anyway I managed 14 lengths oh yeah!!!!! My arms are killin me this mornin.

Auntie Liz n uncle phil: Im still searchin for my little surfer dude who im bringin back for alice so I will keep tht in mind haha. Look i didnt expect anything from any1 for crimbo this year cos im far far away n every1s already helped me out so much b4 I came so it really doesnt matter. Aww tht will be nice, wish I cud have a laugh at nannas typin skills tho, im sure its funny.

Mummsie: Dont worry I wasnt on my own on the streets, not exactly sure if it was safe cos we had tramps wonderin round us all the time n we had to leave our bags at the side of the streets thro the day but thats one of many reasons why I quit this morning so i no longer have to do it any more so all is gud!!! Aww I wud love to live in somerset can we not move there??? Oh last nite was freeky cos the lads asked me if I was watchin shaun of the dead with them cos it was on tele n I told them tht we had already watched it n every1 was like no we haven't amy n I said we did n it was stormy outside n rainin n they were positive tht it hadnt happened, but I thought it was really wierd how I cud recall the whole film to them when my memory when it cums to films is rubbish. Anyway as soon as the film started a big storm started n it was thunder n lightenin n rainin n every1 was starrin at me n I was gettin spooked. I started thinkin where I was n when I cud have watched it n the only thing I cud think of was the night b4 at ures so I had to ring you! So turns out I was gettin 2 events n mergin them together haha silly me.

OH by the way im now 11 hours in front of you, just thought id let u know!!! :-)

LOve u all loads xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

*HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!!!!!!*

Its ure bday over here so I get to ceblerate it b4 u haha. Anyway I thought I would wish u lots of love on ure bday!!! Hope u have a lovely day lots of birthday hugs n kisses xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hi Amy

hows the job going. With that big smile of yours i'm sure you will be earning loads of commision. But don't get ill out in the rain all day. I'm sure you'll be cooking like nigella before you know it.

Took grandad to see the lights at blackpool. He would'nt move till he'd seen the sea. So nanna had to take him to the fronts to see the sea. He's a nutter. Curtis calls it the poopool says it full of s***. lovely child he his.

I hope this boy you are bringing for alice is layed back. Because she will drive him mad after ten minutes.

Starting to get crimbo presants. Would you like me to get you something and give it to michael to bring. or give your mum some cash to put in your bank. Let me know.

Going to take lap top round to nannas this weekend so they can send you a message. I could be there all day. ha ha ha Anyway sign of for now.

luv you keep safe.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi sweetheart.

Hope your ok, no we didn't go to famagusta, we were going to but never got round to it, if i ever get gary back on a plane we may go next time we go to cyprus.

Hows the job going, do you work alone and is it safe to be doing street selling?

hows the weather now? its turned really cold here now, think i'm feeling it more with just coming back from sun sun sun.

went to nanas yday she's really missing you wish they could afford the flight n get to see you to put their minds at rest that your doing ok.

how did your meal go did you cook n if you did, did you avoid poisoning your guests?

Gary is loving his job, we've been all over we were in somerset on wednesday its beautiful down there, we drove through bristol on the way. he prefers it when i go with him, i do as much navigating as the sat nav. when we get to the destination i have to look for the company he is delivering to, so far i'm doing well not missed one yet.

anyway sweetheart i'm on nights now for 7 so if you want t give me a call i'd love to hear from you.

Hey every1!! Well my interview went really well. I had to go out onto the streets and observe sum of the guys doing promo work but I was also gettin observed too to see if I was gud enough to maybe jump in and have a go myself. They said the observation thingy cud go 2 ways, they either send me home or they send me back to the office for a final interview. The manager told me tht the girl was guna send me home until she sent me on a treasure hunt n I had to run around the streets of sydney askin people to either do something for me or give me something. Well I got sent bk to the office n I got offered a job which I started 2day, so im now a really annoying promo girl on the streets of sydney yey!! Its bin cold n rainy today tho so ive bin stud out in the pourin rain 2day so im not feeling good about the job so far but im guna give it a go n see what happens. The only thing is that I get paid only on commision so I only made 1 sale today so I earned myself bout 22 english squid for 8 n half hours work stud on my feet all day, not good. I am willing to see how it goes keep at it for a few more days n if Im not making any money out of it then Im guna go bk to tempin or hand a few application forms in for other places. The plus side of it tho is that if I manage to get plenty of people to sign up in one day then I can earn myself loads of money from just one days work. So we'll see!! I was so shattered tho yesterday, as soon as I got home I got a shower n then laid on my bed readin my script of what I have to say to people I stop on the streets n heather said when she came in at half 8 I was fast asleep huggin the script, I was sOO tired but got a really gud nite sleep which is what I needed.

Daddy: So glad u have recieved a parcel from ozzy land but who says its from me, but I wud advise u save it until next week hehe!!! Yeah I know it wud be really nice if I cud get sum work which I really love n stick at it n make loads of cash b4 crimbo but im thinkin its not guna happen but we'll see how everything goes. I really wud love for you to be able to cook me sumthin real nice cos I miss it soooo much, I was thinkin bout tht on the way home from the interview yesterday. It just costs so much to make a proper nice meal cos of all the ingredients, like chillie cos we have to keep our meals just simple so it dunt cost alot. Its gud tht uve put weight on tho. I saw a lucy lookalike today wen I was stud on the streets tryin to be sO enthusiastic about a bloody charity tht means nothing to me, but it made my heart melt cos I so wanted to give her a big hug covered in s*** or not!!! xxxxx

Mummy: 6 hours delay isnt gud bet ure well tired, glad u had a gud time tho. Did u take a boat trip to the ghost town?? It was so gud me n darrell loved tht. Yeah I know but its not really fair on heather cookin for me all the time so ive been tryin to have a go. Our friends are cumin round 2moro nite for food which im cookin them I think so we'll have to see how tht goes, Im thinkin of just gettin them drunk n then it will taste gorgeous what ever haha!!

Anyway im headin home now cos im cold n shattered n very hungry so I will speak soon love u lots xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Amy

How did you get on at the interview? Hope you av bin lucky.

I got a parcel from Oz today, but will not open it until the 29th promise!

Av you got any more irons in fire for work? Danny as bin working his little socks off wiv me, if he cud climb the ladders he'd make a good window cleaner! I av told nana that you got short listed for a job - she wishes you all the luck.

Weather has turned cold over here now, but today was quite nice.

Christmas is dawning on us quickly 8 weeks to go - it wud be nice if youcud get work up to Christmas then you cud av a gud rest.

Lucy is ready for a good bath again she's like a toilet roll , nice and white to start with then she gets covered in s***! haha I still have a sense of humour.

Av you ad any home cooking lately? Wish I cud cook you a gud meal. Iv'e put 5 pounds on myself - must be content and too much home cooking!

Anyway darling going now hope to hear from you soon.

Luv u always

Pete and Sue and Stef and Cass and Lucy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hi sweetheart,

arrived back in britain today to grey skys after a six hour delay.

we were just on the outskirts of Aiya Napa bout 5 mins from square n it was fairly quiet cos most places are closing down. the weather was fantastic and we have lovely tans. We also found this cracking place to eat called blueberries n you know what it's like when you find somewhere nice you go plenty we went 4 times. Aiya Napa was great we will be going back defo.

We went on the yellow submarine and swam in the sea and into caves. we went to nissi beach not enough time in a week to explore it all n you always discover somewhere new just before you come home we found a whole new street. maybe next time we'll go to pratarus on the bus and have a look there or hire a car.

hows things with you n jobs?

I think you should leave the cooking to the experts if i were you prob best. anyway got to go to the bank so i'll sign off now n speak to you real soon.

love n miss you loads. mum n gary xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey, tiny update! An agency rang me this mornin and said that they had recieved my resume and it has been short listed n they congradulated me cos they said that mine stood out so I have now got to go for an observation thing in the morning for about 3 hours so im excited. Not sure exactly what I'm doing maybe promotions work?? I'll let u know tho. Well I got my pizza like I wanted n burnt it all, I needed an axe to break thro it, im a liability haha.

Dad: Well the weather has been gorg l8ly but ive just had a look at the forcast n its not lookin good so fingers crossed I will be too busy workin to even care, the tan is gettin better tho. Yeah the fridays work at the law firm was thro an agency, its the best way to get work over here cos then the companies know where they stand cos they understand tht its travellers tht they are gettin. Ive tried applyin for jobs myself but most want ozzy residents cos then they know that they can stay long term.

Love u all lots and lots xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Amy

How you doin. Good to hear you've got somewhere to leave. the weather as gone down hill here. We are goin to blackpool today to see the ligths. And curtis as got a top to take back. I just hope it's not to cold. Alice as told grandad he's got to go. He didn't want to go but she talked him into it. Curtis is up for yet another award at school. So we are goin down to see him collect that. He dosn't know what it's for or he says he dosn't. I've got my appointment to see about gettin my hip seen to they are goin to put some metal in it. I'll be like the bionic woman. And i'll beable to do the splits again. lol. as if i ever could. Nanna n grandad tell me over n over again what you say on the phone. They are either goin mad or missing you. I think it's the latter. Well that's about it not much happens here.

talk again soon love n miss u loads.
