Serious stuff to both of you.

Andrew you have had two calls from the RBS over the weekend.   I have just been to our branch to ask if they can find out why.  It seems the department that rang you is rather worried about the excessive use of your debit card in an area where card fraud if rife.  They want you to call them ASAP on +441313397609 (24hr service) and have your card number handy.  There is no problem with your account but they are checking the transactions.  IF YOU DO NO CALL THEM SOON THEY WILL STOP THE CARD. They are doing this for your benefit incase your card details have been copied.  Sophie if you have a number for your bank the RBS advises you to call them too and let them know all is well with you.

Hope all's well with your world

Love tons Mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 Hey you guys!!!!

Hows things?!  Ru still having fun in sunny Peru?  Me and Phil are trying to book our Inca Trail tour through SAS Travel.  How did you do it?!  Did you scan your isic cards and email them to them separately when you booked your trips?!?!  Also, how did you pay?  Do you need a credit card to pay or can you do it on your switch card.  Oow also did you book separately or is there a way you can do it together?!?!  Hope you're both well anyway,

Hi Guys,

Banos made the world news again last night, the volcano is becoming overly active and scaring evyone to death. Apparently you would have had 8 minutes to flee the town once it erupted! How far away are you now?  A long way I hope!!

I hope you are still having a great time - just to spoil it, Mum wants to know if she is to pay off an installment on  Andrew's Visa bill, before if incurs penalties.

I can't wait to get back to work for a rest, I seem to have worked far too hard this last 2 weeks without much to show for it.  Perhaps I should come and visit you!

Have fun.

Love Dad G

Happy Easter to you both.

WOW sandboarding sounds amazing, did you get any photos?

I have just completed two cycle rides these last two days (shock to the system!!) last time I cycled was 18months ago. Today was the Middlewood way, bit tame compared to your white knuckle ride BUT it was FLAT Sophie!!! Guess which Eric got a puncture and due to a rubbish pump we had with us we had to cut the cycle short - shame!!!! Think we may hit the Tissington Trail tomorrow! Depends on the good old weather I'm NOT cycling in the rain!!!!

Nick made it to Portsmouth in record time. It took him 3.5 hours in Mona that's incredible.  We keep thinking of things he has forgotten to take, packing is not his forte, what he is going to be like at the end of May I can't imagine!!

The garden is looking tidier and VERY GREEN, everything is painted forest green, including Topsy, if you stood still long enough dad painted it green!!

Well i'll go for now dinner cooking calls, i'm just hoping its better than yesterdays disaster!!!

Grandma is with us, change of scenery for her, she sends her love and best wishes to you both

By the way I think one of the black moor/mollies laid eggs yesterday in ther grasses, the other fishes AND the freak wouldn't leave her alone, maybe baby fishes are on the way!!!

Tons of love Mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

YES, IT REALLY IS DAD W.... AND KATE

We are at the flat reading your blog and showing dad the pics. I asked him to write a message but he said that he needs time to prepare it so he will write it with a quil, send it to me by pidgeon and then I will pop it on t'internet later in the week.

We have just been to the church at mobberley for easter monday lunch - yummy, the to the aviation viewing park (boring).

Hope you are well!

Lots of love,

Dad, Badger and Me.xx 

Hey andy and soph,

 Thanks for your "Happy bithday"'s (that does kinda make sense )

Sorry iv not replied sooner! Im rubbish for doin that! i neva reply (tis wierd).

It must b all this alcohol u forced me to drink

WOW ur adventures look and sound incredible! im so jealous of the fun ur havin... im sat at home doin maths *tonnes of fun!!!*

I am surprised tho that youve not bumped into indiana jones yet in some of the places ur visitin!! If u do, remember to stay away from big gold things that melt you, guys in fezzes wit machine guns,tanks, run away mine trains,  holy grails, gaint boulders, (andy) avoid fightin a guy underneith a plane, and most importantly avoid nazis!!

 You do all that an ul be fine

 Talk soon,

Love Chris

Hi Guys,

I'm drop dead envious of you - it sounds like you're having a ball.  Some of those pictures of the beach did look remarkably lke Blackpool with the pier in the background.  I loved the mountains, it's a shame photos don't capture their magnificence, I'll just have to go and see them for myself!

I'm glad that you've found a place that really excites you, I was beginning to think you were becoming a bit jaded with the long bus rides. I must go out and buy a better map of South America, because I'm struggling to find the places that you're visiting in my atlas.  These are going to be memories that will last, so make the most of them.

It's Easter morning and Nick has just gone off in a state of high excitement to pick up Emma and then they are off to Portsmouth and Dartmouth. If you could have seen the amount of preparation he's made for this trip you'd think he was on his way to South America.  He's only camping for 4 or 5 days!

We've bought you an Easter egg each and it will be in the top of Andrew's wardrobe (just in case we forget where we have hid it!)

Have a great time and Happy Easter.

Love Dad
