mum+andrew hi to you both It looks and sounds like you have had a marvelous time, The photos are excellent, The Alps and the ones of Mt Blanc are beautiful. Andrew commented about the mileage you have covered, on one of the last trip we took on our bike we only went up to scarborough and back, we could`nt walk straight for two days so hats off to you both! The weather has broken here the sunshine has been broken up by some large black one , so I think you should expect rain when you hit Blighty. The girls are all fine but I think they are missing you now.They can't wait to see you both, Natalie keeps asking how many more sleeps there are left . She was the same before we went to the coast. We have took some lovely photos of the girls enjoying the beach and the paddling pool. I know I keep saying it but take care and we will see you sometime tomorrow. love to you both Mum + Andrew

Mum and Dad Looked for you at the race. Didn't see you but glad you had such a great time. Sorry about the rain. Message to Glenn from the mother-in-law."Make sure Jo doesn,t sit on the back of that bike in a wet vest!" (didn't mean it) Have a good journey home. Keep safe. Lots of love from Mum and Dadxx

mum + Andrew posted you a message this morning but forgot to solve the sum so it never got sent!! anyway we have been to hornsea today the weather has been fantastic even hornsea felt like the riviera!!! girls have had a whale of a time on the beach gabby loved the sand she even had a paddle in the sea, nats declined. we found a paddling pool and nats was happier there but we could`nt get gabby out she had a ball. The pics are fantastic and we are so glad the trip is going well and weather is still fantastic. We think we got the best end of the bargain it has been a joy having the kids and today at the seaside(nats words) put the icing on the cake(which we hav`nt eaten by the way).Take care on the ride back, look forward to seeing you safe & sound wed night. love to you bothxx

Dad,Sue Another sunny day forast for tues. cooling wed. thurs etc.You should avoid any more rain? end of weather forcast. Apart from mozzi bites you`ve done good! A steady ride back to reality for you both tho.Hope the colder weather helps you get a good nights sleep. Love dad,sue x x

Simon, Emma & Alfie MotoGP Pictures look cool, look like cracking seats….. It was a great race to watch on TV with the weather conditions changing, so it must have been amazing sat there with 82k fans, mainly all in yellow. Its just a shame Mr No Personality and his barcode sponsorship had to win it. I did notice on Day Three, Pizza lunch with diet coke…. Jo won't know what's hit her when she's gets back home to normality, cooking you gourmet food… Its been cracking flags here, think its scheduled rain for your return, so should be like home from home for you… At least you'll have Thursday and Friday to clean your bike… Bonjour for now..

Its only me ........ Have seen the piccies and I'm a bit worried about the bloke who took the piccy! It's full of MAFIA, you know! Best to get on the bike and head out to the hills - the only way out! Anyway who was the smarty-pants who can't read the map and'or the sat-nav. Bobbing about the place like a pair of jessies in the Sound of Mucus. It's a jolly good thing that the frontier cops didn't get you. Mummy says that we are following you all the way. (now when did I last hear that?) Going to have a posh meal tonight NAAAA- NNNNa - Na - Na - NA !!!! Chips with all the trimmings! Saw some of the races yesterday. By God do they GO! ME. PS........I can already spell 2 plus 3 makes 5 !!!!

Mum and Dad Hiya Chums Glad to hear you didn't miss out on Switzerland! You must have the same SatNav as we have. And there we were thinking it was senility creeping on! We're thinking of keeping up with you with the champagne. Hope Italy is drenched in sunshine. Lots of love. Mum and Dad

Simon, Emma & Alfie Glenn, is there no end to your generous hospitality, Champions league football, a can of diet coke and a sandwich on a stop off….. Jo you just don't know how lucky you really are….. Oh! and nice stickers on the panniers (46), I get you... trying to mingle with the locals….

Jen Bonjour mes amis! Looks like you're having a whale of a time (unlike Glenn at Wembley of course - hope he's over it!) Mont Blanc looks stunning on the pics. I'm also very glad to hear that my Sat Nav's not alone in its wanderlust! :) Champions League Final with French commentary eh? Like you said Jo - classic honeymoon activity that! I'm surprised the French even bothered showing it given their love of English and Spanish leagues. Well, really should crack on, the wether's nice so I'd liek to get done early. Hope your weather continues to improve and I'm sure it will as you get to Italy. Take care, have fun xxx

Dad and Sue We enjoyed photos of Natalie's party.HopeWonder Woman photos will be as good. I am suntanned as sun shining beautifully and promised for the next few days, hope it is with you now.Back to the important stuff, Blackwell due to stay and looking for 7 new players. Cotterill on transfer list and all loan players gone back to clubs (thankGod!) Take care out there, love Dad and Sue.xxx

It's only me....... Soon be into Italy! Wish I could be running behind you. It's the most amazing country in the EU. You should see the office now. It's a belter - but enough of this just, just take in the air and enjoy the views. Lots of love, Dad.
