Well done babe! You are such a clever girly! Bet you can't wait to start there - that's so handy being so near to you, and I presume you can take Neve into work and see her all day, how cool! You have got it good now! Will you still have to take Trev to work in the morning or can he drive again now? So bye bye Rachel - you will miss her so much of course! Thats so cool, coz whatever you dont like too much about the centre you can just change it, and make it so fantastic and the best nursery ever because you are so brilliant at what you do! Let me know how you are getting on - will you probably start after Xmas though? Bet you have gone mad with the xmas shopping as ever, but with a cute little baba to buy for who couldnt go mad! Does she fit into those outfits I bought for her or is it too cold for them at the moment I guess - I think they were things I bought for summer weren't they? She must have grown so much since I left! Anyway, am gonna write some more journal you will be pleased to know - you had better get a brew on and go for a wee! xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Forgot to say, no they love the poms, especially the accent!

I wish I could make it to the secret Santa Leigh but unfortunately I work Thursdays nights as a waitress so I can't make it - if you are all still drinking (no doubt you will be) at 11pm I could pop in after work! I loved secret santa last year, I wonder if anyone will get anything really dodgy like those thongs Jayson got last year! Oh you are making me miss Leeson! Happy Xmas to you too (and everyone at Leeson) - I expect its all quiet again now, but you don't have me, Tristan and Carole making a mess of the office with paper everywhere this year! Take care, love Grace. P.S. the Ozzies are loud and beer drinkers, but no way near as bad as the Brits! Of course they like blondes - everyone does!

oh i forgot to say happy xmas and good new year

Hi Gracie good to see your having a great time anyway the secret santa do at leeson is on the 15th dec so we are expecting you to turn up and bring me a nice secret santa prezzie. looks like we will be getting new classrooms in march and they will proberbly go on the games field. anyway do the australian males like blondes? or are they all as we think they are beer drinking loud and pommy haters speak soon Leigh.

Laura looks exactly the same! Don't wory, I told her all about you being in Oz! She was very impressed! I totally didn't think about getting moo's email. Next time I go to Dorset I'll go into Boots and ask her! Blandford was quite quiet - really casual. I just enjoyed seeing Em so much though I wouldn't have cared if no one was out! It did seem different from other times that Ive been out there. No body was dressed up at all or particually hyper or anything - apart from me and Em of course! We didn't stay out that late cause Mum was babysitting Neve and I didn't want to take the piss - Em's mum was babysitting for her aswell. By the way I have REALLY REALLY exciting news!! I went for an interview last week for a managers job at Rascals Day Nursery just down the road from me and I got the job!!!!! I'm so excited! I've got 12 staff and 36 children! I'm going to look round tonight. Not sure when I start - I think i'll find out later when I go there! Finally I can leave that STUPID thick cow that I work for now! I'm so excited that you have a house now! What's it like? I also really need to know if you've seen any spiders??? There's a story on the local news at the mo about somebodys exotic pet tarantula escaping and it's in this families home in south wales but the experts think it's gone into hybernation which could be up to a year!! Haha! The lad of this family is sleeping downstairs on the sofa because it was him that discovered it.....crawling over his head in the middle of the night!!!AAAAARRRRHHHHHH!!!!It better not come to North Wales!
I'm going into town in a minute when babe wakes up to buy you silly things to send!!
So happy for you that you've found a nice home.xxxxxxxxxx

Oh my god gurty thats so crazy! Bet Laura was surprised to see you after all this time - and you must have been surprised to see her too! And to see that you were married and had a baba she must have thought that was pretty mad! I think I knew she was married - maybe Stacy told me, but I can't remember how she knew! I cannot believe Moomin lives in L.A. and is engaged! Did you get her email or anything? Would be nice to see how she is! Did Laura seem the same or completely different!? Did she ask about me at all? Hope you told her I am having the time of my life in Australia!! Was it wierd to go out in Blandford again? Hope you stayed out all night what with all the new licensing laws in the UK - thats going to be so strange when I come back - good though! Anyway, you will be pleased to know I am about to write an essay on my website for your bed time reading! Well, several probably as I have to go somewhere at 2 then will come back and write more! Hope you and family are well, and that Neve's teething isnt causing you all too much stress! Love you, Grace xxxxxx

Hello!
Just a quick bit of news - I've been down to Dorset for a week which was fab. Had a lovely time with Mum and had such a funny night out with Em. We didn't go to The 'Grot spot' in the end - we went to Tiffs!Ha Ha! Anyway while I was Blandford one day minding my own business in Boots, someone called me - it was Laura Tate! She works there. She was really chatty and friendly! I introduced her to Neve and she told me that she's now married aswell to someone from Poole!! She also told me that Moomin is living in L.A with her fiancee (not sure if thats how you spell it but you know what I mean!) They are getting married next year! How bizarre! She didn't know about anyone else from school but that was interesting enough! Just thought you'd like to know about Moomin seeing as we were wondering about her last time you were up.
Went to The Clothes Show on Sunday - it was so good! Will definitely be going next year aswell. There were some extremely fit male models all in army print kilts during the catwork show - very very yummy!!
Anyway, have to go!
Love you lots
