Hi girls, Have returned from holiday with Victoria. Canada and America were great. But what happened to the weather in the UK? Have viewed your DVD of the parachute jump. Were you all smiling with enjoyment or was it hysteria? Sorry to hear that your backpacks are still in fiji. However, it does seem you have been fortunate to meet such a kind and generous lady. It restores ones faith in the goodness of our fellow humans! Am looking forward to some quality time with you Eleanor. Girls enjoy the final stage of your tour and come home safe. Lots of love. Beryl

Hi Girls
Thought I'd better add my thanks to Helen for thinking of us oldies and posting another blog. It really helps to read about what you're all doing and try to imagine how much fun you're having! It sounds fantastic! Much better than marking books on a cloudy day and planning my next lesson!
Yes it was the dinner dance last night (it seems 2 mins since we were buying your beautiful blue/green dress Nat and searching for shoes). They all looked absolutely fabulous and seemed to have an amazing time. I did borrow one of your dresses Nat (thanks very much) but don't worry it has been safely returned (you better get back soon!) Year 13 Prom tonight but don't worry I'll be wearing my own dress!
Can't believe there's only 8 weeks left. I know I am a very sad person (and have been known to cry at Carol Vordemanns Better Homes) but I did shed a tear (or 2) because (although I don't want to rush through your adventures) I am REALLY looking forward to seeing you again. What a shopping trip we will have Nat!!!
Love from
Sad Mummy in Richmond

hi Girls - thank you sooo sooo much Meli for latest update - you really don't know how much it means to us all to read of your adventures!! You must appreciate that you are all discovering places and experiencing things that us oldies can only ever dream of!! Well maybe.......who knows. but it is fantastic to hear from you and we really do appreciate it! Yr 11 dinner dance was lovely to watch another sign that us mums can only be observers of the fantastic things that you do as we are soooo old they weren't invenetd in our day!!! Hannah's friends are going on to exciting things after, but Helen you'll be pleased to know she has to stay and clear up with her dad and come home with him - she's not getting away with murder!! She's as hard done to as you were!! Enjoy your last week in Oz - soak up all the fumn and excitement - love you loads and miss you all!! I feel like you are really on the downward count now! take care look after you all
love mum xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yaaay!! Thank you Helen. I am so sad that I still check this site most times I go on my computer but I don't reaaly expect to see anything anymore so imagine my delight when I saw blog number 12!!! sounds like you are having a really great time. Only 8 weeks left. Are you sad about that? i would imagine probably a lot of mixed feelings but I know we are all going to be chuffed to see you all when you get home. Isn't it a small world meeting all those people from home? Hope you get some more sunshine before you head to New Zealand. Remember I only want to hear about the bungee jump AFTER you have done it. Couldn't stand the worry if I knew when you were about to do it! Year 11 prom tonight. All us oldies are going over to ooh and aahh at Hannahs Clark and Robertson and all the others. Looking forward to it. I always love to see them looking so gorgeous. Seems a long time since your year 11 dinner dance, doesn't it? Take care. Lots of love xxxxxxxxx

G'day girls
Seems like this site has fallen out of favour i know it is a bit of a pain uploading all your pics and I know that you are all keeping in touch with families via e mail and text but everyone does so enjoy reading your messages and looking at your pictures. So if you have time, each of you, leave us a message and let us look at some more pictures. surfboarding sounds interesting as does Fraser island. What are you doing about saving your pictures now?
Got your paintings Emma. They are fab. Thank you. And got a postcard this morning. V entertaining as always.
Lots of love and hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Emma thankyou for the postcard from Australia looks brill. Sorry for the late reply have been really busy, Emma and Lee in their new house at last. Adam is going to email you their new address and ours we are hoping to move Friday 4th May you dont realise how much stuff you keep till you have to empty cupboards. Centre parcs was really good at Nottingham although I think I prefer Oasis at the Lakes, then Cornwall end of June Its a shame your not back from your travels to go with us. Adam says your mum and dad going in July I hope they enjoy it. Not sure how ad manages to get so much time off work for all his holidays. Hope your safari goes well and you and your friends are having a good time .
Love Janet and Michael

Hi Mel ,Joy here. Just been looking at your photos, i am so jealous of you . it all looks so different from Blackpool. You all look so well and look like you are having a good time. All is well in the world of the Edmo's. i am on a flying visit to the north east. We have all been out for lunch at Kirby Hill, very nice but we missed you. I ate enough for the 2 of us. Mark and Becci have moved in to their flat and have been very busy on the decorating front. Rob and I went down a couple of weeks ago. It is a great flat , they have done well with it. It was great to see them. Neal is fine and enjoying life. He is getting abit sorry to be getting to the end of uni, but doing alot of partying and clubbing. He has booked his travelling with Caroline. They are starting off in Africa. He is sooo looking forward to it. Glad you have decided on Manchester... You can come to your Auntie Joys for some good home cooking Ha! Ha! You will always be welcome. Any way love continue to have a wonderful time, all of you. Take care and enjoy.Han is practicing for her french oral?? sounds all Russian to me. Nan and grandad send their love. Lots and lots of love, your very jealous auntie JOY and the rest of the Edmo'sxxxxx

Think I just sent you an E-mail Emma, when I should have sent a message to your message board. Well girls I have really enjoyed looking at all of your photos and seeing how much fun you are all having. Think the rest of us should be arranging our gap year. Hey what happened to the healthy eating--traitors!! So much for ," eat as much as you can at pizza hut ". Surely Ozzie has some fantastic fruit! Hope you enjoy your surfing and sailing. Don't get too sea sick!! Take care! Lots of love and happiness to you.
